After breakfast, Sun rinsed his mouth under the service of the girls, and walked around the house to eliminate his appetite.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, Mama Li walked in, stepped forward and asked with a smile, "Has the old lady eaten yet?" ”

Sun sighed "hmm" and said to Mama Li: "You go to the various courtyards to inform me, don't come to greet me today." ”

If the Sun family misses the Buddhist scriptures or hides and is quiet on weekdays, he will also order the courtyards not to use it to greet her, and Mama Li hurriedly bowed down and retreated when she heard this.

Mama Li went out of the main room and found a few little girls and instructed: "You go to the courtyards to inform the masters, the old lady doesn't need them to come over to say hello today." ”

Mama Li thought for a while and said, "I'll go for a walk over there in Hefeng Courtyard." ”

The little girls took the order, and Mama Li stood in the courtyard for a while, and then went to the Hefeng Courtyard.

Here, Mama Chang led the Li family into Songling Courtyard, and the third-class girl Banxia, who was guarding the door of the Sun family, saw Mama Chang bring a face-to-face mother-in-law into the main room of the Sun family, and remembered the instructions she got yesterday, so she thought that this matter would definitely be reported to Mama Li later. It's a pity that she can't be told not to enter Sun's room, otherwise she can listen to what Mama Chang brought this mother-in-law to do.

When the Li family saw Sun, they hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye, and Sun nodded lightly and let her get up.

On weekdays, the Li family rarely sees the Sun family, and today is already apprehensive, so standing there is a little restrained.

Mama Chang smiled and said, "The Li family, the old lady is just looking for you to come over and ask questions, don't be restrained." As long as you answer truthfully, the old lady has always had clear rewards and punishments, and she will not embarrass you. ”

Sun motioned to Mama Chang and said, "You ask, I'll listen." "The questioning of the low-level mother-in-law and girl, the Sun family has always handed it over to the big girl or grandmother around him, and has never asked in person.

Mama Chang knew Sun's rules, so she didn't shirk it, but just bowed down. And the Li family's questioning was Mama Chang, who was also relieved, thinking in her heart that today's filial piety was not given in vain, and Mama Chang still had some face in front of the Sun family.

"Li family, I just heard you mention that yesterday's Mrs. He of Xicheng Aquarius Street said that the late Mrs. He Ma was the same sister of the old lady, so she brought her daughter-in-law to ask the old lady for peace, but is there such a thing?"

The Li family bowed their heads and replied, "This is indeed the case." ”

Mama Chang said again: "Did you send the prayer post to the inner courtyard?" ”

The Li family replied: "It was sent in by the slave maid and handed it over to Mama Li." ”

Mama Chang was puzzled: "But why doesn't the old lady know about this?" It can't be that you see that the He family is just a businessman, so you are deliberately neglecting, right? ”

The Li family was startled, looked up at Mama Chang, and saw that Mama Chang gave her a reassuring look, and her heart calmed down, remembering what Mama Chang had told her just now, so she said: "How can the slaves and maids have the courage to snub the old lady's relatives, the slaves and maids did send the post to Mama Li in the inner courtyard." It's just that Mama Li said that the old lady was meeting with the eldest lady at that time, and Mrs. Zhizhou, who came to pay a visit, was not empty, and let the slave go back to the He family like this. ”

Mama Chang said angrily: "You mother-in-law, you have been derelict in your duties and have climbed up Mama Li, if Mama Li learned about this matter, why didn't she mention it in front of the old lady?" Don't tell the truth yet! ”

Hearing this, the Li family hurriedly knelt down in front of the Sun family: "Old lady, what the slave said is the truth. The slave is just a small porter, where does she dare to climb the housekeeper indiscriminately? ”

Mama Chang frowned and wanted to speak again.

Sun suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Mama Chang: "Okay, let her go down." ”

Mama Chang glanced at Sun, and when she saw her leaning on the couch with her eyes closed, she gave the Li family another look and asked her to retreat. The Li family finally breathed a sigh of relief, kowtowed and retreated.

"Old lady, I think Mama Li thought that this He family was a distant relative of the old lady, and even she hadn't heard of it, so she thought that this He family was deliberately sent away."

Sun didn't answer, but after a while, he suddenly raised his hand and swept down the tea bowl in his hand, and with a crisp sound, the pastel cloud bat pattern covered bowl was shattered to pieces.

Mama Chang stood there, looking at her nose and nose, and her heart was no longer talking.

In the middle of the ring, Sun said: "Find someone to clean up." ”

When Mama Chang heard this, she hurriedly called the maid waiting in front of the door.

After a while, Banxia came in. She was taken aback when she saw the broken porcelain bowl on the ground, and raised her eyes to see Sun on the couch with her eyes closed, and she couldn't see anything on her face.

"Get these out of here." Mama Chang commanded in a low voice.

Banxia didn't dare to look at it more, so he hurriedly picked up the broken porcelain pieces and covered them with his clothes, and then cleaned up all the tea stains on the ground, and then retreated.

"The slave will go and call the old lady a cup of tea." Mama Chang said carefully.

Sun opened his eyes when he heard this, but he didn't respond to Mama Chang's words, just looked at the faint water stains on the ground and said slowly: "I've been too indulgent of her all these years, even if she forgets her identity." ”

Mama Chang naturally knew who she was referring to, so she hurriedly smiled and said: "There is some misunderstanding this time, Mama Li, she must not have deliberately deceived her, what good can she get by doing this?" ”

Sun snorted: "What can you get?" She just wants to get past me, the mother's flattering house. ”

Mama Chang was puzzled: "Please forgive the slave and maid for being stupid, I don't know what this has to do with the big house?" ”

Sun closed his eyes, looking a little tired.

Mama Chang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Old lady, let me pinch your shoulder?" ”

Sun did not object, so Mama Chang stepped forward and pinched Sun.

"You are also an old man who follows me, and I will not hide some things from you. The boss is a good person, and he is also filial, but he has a lot of entertainment on weekdays, and he has no law in spending money. On weekdays, I also changed ways to subsidize him, but this time in order to buy a garden of the He family, he started the idea of ice to be used in the summer in the outer courtyard. Seeing that dog days were coming, he didn't fill the hole. He was afraid that I would blame him, so he asked Mama Li to help cover it up. ”

Speaking of this, Sun said angrily: "This rebel! He is my own son, and shall I not turn to him? Although I was a little harsh on him on weekdays, it was to beat him more so that he wouldn't suffer the losses of outsiders outside. But where does he understand my hard work as a mother? even went with his own nurse to deceive me, a mother. Back then, I was in a difficult situation in this house, and I was looking forward to such a son day and night, and he was my life! Doesn't I value him more than the three sons raised under Mrs. Tai's knees? He ......"

Hearing this, Mama Chang hurriedly interrupted Sun and said, "Seeing that the old lady is so angry that she is confused, and she is also confused when she speaks. The eldest master, the three masters are all born to the old lady, so naturally they are equally valued, so if you are raised under the knees, don't mention it again in the future. ”

Sun also felt that he was speechless, patted Mama Chang's hand and said, "I'm really confused, thanks to your reminder." In this house, you can tell me the truth like this without fear of me blaming you, you were such a temperament when you were young, I remember that my mother said back then, such a person can be trusted with confidence. Mother really doesn't look bad at people. ”

Mama Chang said: "It's all you and the lady back then, and the slave is just doing her own thing." ”

Sun shook his head and said, "Although this truth is simple, it is difficult to do. ”

Mama Chang said: "The old lady just said that Mama Li sent the He family away in order to cover up the fact that he bought the He family's garden for the eldest master?" ”

Sun said coldly: "She is afraid that when the He family comes to me, the matter of the boss buying the yard will not be able to hide it." She has been with me all these years, doesn't she know that I have subsidies for most of the old people on weekdays? How else can I really embarrass him for a garden? It's just that she wants to sell it well, but she doesn't want to think about where she left me as a mother like this? ”

Mama Chang said: "Mama Li is the nurse of the eldest master, so she will naturally be more helpful." ”

"Nurse? Hum! I'm afraid she is looking forward to my mother-in-law who will be the boss after I die, and be the king and hegemon in this mansion! ”

"Phew! The gods are not strange, the gods are not strange! Don't pronounce that word, old lady, it's unlucky. ”

Sun is still a little indignant: "I'm still here, she dares to deceive and hide it!" Others are okay to say, now even my sister-in-law's relatives dare to carry me out! Although the He family and the sister-in-law must be distant relatives, if this is spread out, what will people think of our Wang family? What do you think of me, old lady? If it reaches the ears of my sister-in-law, how will I behave in front of my sister-in-law in the future? ”
