Chapter Seventy-Two: Grandmother

The courtyard where the old lady and Mrs. Ding live is more quiet, the yard is planted with a few pines and cypresses pulled out of the sky, Ding Rou walked into the courtyard called Chengsong Garden, and saw the pines and cypresses standing up at a glance, the whole courtyard is simple and unpretentious, looking inside from the glass window, Ding Rou found that the largest room is the study, the bookshelves are full of books, Ding's house is worthy of being a scholarly home, the original memory of the most books is of course the Chengsong Garden where the old man lives, and there is also a study room in the house, Ding Rou thinks that she is not short of books to read.

The girl in front of Mrs. Tai named Wen Li greeted her and said with a smile: "Mrs. An, the second wife has been here for a while, and Mrs. Tai will let you go in directly." ”

Looking at the words and deeds, several girls wearing official green S Bijia obeyed Wen Li's instructions, Ding Rou knew that she also had a face in front of Mrs. Tai, it was said that it should be a big girl to greet Mrs. Ding, Ding Rou obviously felt Wen Li's scrutinizing gaze, Ding Rou chn drew a faint smile, Mrs. Tai is not a person who doesn't know anything, no matter what it does, it doesn't mean that Ding Rou is picked up again.

Wen Li personally picked up the brocade curtain of Xidengzhi and said, "The eldest lady pleases, the third sister pleases, and the sixth sister pleases." ”

The fifth sister Ding Shu has always been the most favored in front of Mrs. Tai, so Ding Shu came to Mrs. Tai before Ding Min and Ding Rou to say goodbye, and the eldest lady encouraged Ding Shu to get closer to Mrs. Tai, Ding Shu also took a step ahead of Mrs. Tai, but Ding Min and Ding Rou could only follow Mrs. Ding Rou lowered her eyebrows and followed the eldest lady quietly, no matter how curious the lady was, Ding Rou didn't dare to look up at this time, the rules and etiquette were very tight.

"Mother Ann." The eldest lady bent her knees, and Ding Rou, who hung her head, heard a calm voice, and her tone was extremely gentle, "Sit down." Two simple words, but it made Ding Rou's heart skip a beat, Mrs. Tai's momentum was enough to suppress the eldest lady.

Ding Min, Ding Rou knelt on the futon and kowtowed, "Sun NV greets grandmother." ”

With a faint sound, after receiving Sun NV's greeting, Ding Rou was helped up by Yaju, and couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at the kang, Mrs. Tai wore a forehead inlaid with emerald gems in the middle, and her hair was furnished into four or five hairpins, and gold hairpins and silver ornaments, a robe with loose huās rolling gold thread was placed on the kang table, her demeanor was peaceful, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were carved with traces of time.

Mrs. Tai is always calm and indifferent, her eyes are as calm as an ancient well, and the wrist of the kang table has a string of sandalwood Buddha beads. As for other information, Ding Rou couldn't see it, and the reason for it was that Ding Rou glanced at it in a hurry and didn't dare to look at it more, and second, how could Mrs. Tai let Ding Rou see through her preferences.

Ding Rou Ding Min sat on the embroidery pier next to the eldest lady, Ding Rou put her hands together, her hands were on her knees, her waist was straightened, her chin was slightly raised, and the pear vortex had a quiet smile, and her sitting posture and demeanor could reflect the temperament of the person very much, and she could also make a good impression. Sure enough, Ding Rou keenly felt that Mrs. Tai threw a touch of approval.

Glancing at the layout of the room, Ding Rou has a sense of proportion in her heart, Mrs. Tai is not a luxurious person, most of the cabinet furnishings have been used for many years, although jīng is better, but no matter how well it is maintained, there will be traces left, the kang is covered with crimson humiliation, Mrs. Tai has two hand pads behind her, both of which are brightly embroidered Yan S, as she gets older, no matter how strict Mrs. Tai is, she has not gotten rid of the old man's common x preference for bright Yan S, compared to the plain grandsons on the dress table, Ding Rou is dressed more conspicuously.

The person who sat on the other side of Mrs. Tai and dressed as a lady was Mrs. Qi in the second room, Ding Rou's second aunt, in terms of appearance alone, Qi looked better than the eldest lady, a little more weak temperament, and there was a little mist in her eyes, but it was also worthy of the second master's literary style, Ding Rou could know from the corners of her raised eyes that Qi was not as weak as she looked. The second wife also brought out the fourth sister Ding Yu and the seventh sister Ding Yun.

Except for Ding Yun, the second wife did not give birth to a son-in-law, so she could only bring her concubine over as a sister-in-law to raise, compared to the eldest wife who had all the daughter-in-law, the second wife felt very uncomfortable, although she didn't dare to find fault in major matters, but in things, the second wife refused to let people. Mrs. Tai cherishes her a lot because the second wife does not have to be in charge, and the second wife is very good at pleasing Mrs. Tai, and in front of Mrs. Tai, she seems to be more favored than the eldest wife.

Ding Rou knows very well that in the eyes of Mrs. Tai, the most important thing is the eldest daughter-in-law, the eldest lady is a continuation of the glory of the Ding family's incense, Mrs. Tai is stricter with the eldest wife, all for the sake of the eldest wife, the eldest lady will not distinguish between right and wrong, and the second wife can reprimand her as long as she is disrespectful to the eldest sister-in-law and the eldest wife, and the eldest lady can reprimand her without talking too much, so in this matter, the eldest wife is too lazy to worry about the second wife.

There is friction and calculation, but it will not endanger the overall situation, the back house of the Ding Mansion is stable, and the brothers are united, this is the foundation of the Ding family based on the capital, as the actual ruler of the Ding family, Mrs. Tai is worthy of praise, how many people have brothers killed each other because of their mother's partiality, regardless of the eldest and younger? Such people, without exception, are rapidly declining.

Ding Rou's eyes fell on the two young NVs behind the second wife, the fourth sister Ding Yu's facial features were jīng, which was one point worse than Zhi Lan's heart, a pair of eyes that seemed to be happy and sad, which made people feel pity, those eyes were too outstanding, Ding Rou always thought that Lin Daiy did not exist, after seeing Ding Yu, but in terms of appearance, Ding Yu was enough to match Cao Xueqin's words on Lin Daiy's appearance. Ding Yu is not as tall as Lin Daiy, and she is a little more cramped as a concubine, faintly revealing inferiority, Ding Rou is a little pity. But among the sisters, the fourth sister Ding Yu has the best appearance.

Because of the sister Ding Yu, Ding Yun, who is one year older than Ding Rou, can't show it, in memory Ding Yu is extremely clever x chess, chess, calligraphy and painting are also top-notch among the sisters, Ding Min can occasionally compete with Ding Yu, such a talented and beautiful woman is a concubine, Ding Rou looked at Ding Yu's eyes with a faint sadness, the second wife is not like the eldest wife, the more outstanding she is, the second wife is afraid that the more unhappy she is, but she is not necessarily happy if she changes the eldest wife, but the means used by the eldest wife are not comparable to the second wife, and it is not a good thing for the second wife to be too showy, Ding Rou made a note of this in her heart, and when she didn't have a stable foundation, it was important to serve a good boss.

Ding Rou herself doesn't care much about those ethereal praises, what she wants is to grasp her own destiny and not be put on by her mother-in-law, she has a good reputation, and it is also beneficial to Ding Rou, Ding Rou can tell clearly, who can she marry, the prince and the noble, the Haomn family, are never in the scope of Ding Rou's consideration, so Ding Rou doesn't think she has a conflict with the concubines. After getting married, she lived her own life, and Ding Rou didn't believe that she would find fault with her husband again.

Although the husband in his previous life finally hooked up with his sister, Ding Rou was not wrong about his talent and learning ability, if he didn't have the ability, Ding Rou wouldn't have developed so well no matter how much he helped, Ding Rou just mislooked the feelings, thinking that he wouldn't betray, Ding Rou's fingers curled slightly, is it all his fault that her husband cheated? Ding Rou sometimes reflects, is it because she is not good enough?

"I haven't seen the six girls for half a year, tsk, I don't dare to admit it." The second wife said in a kind voice, gossiping: "Tell me, where did you go so smart?" If there is really a fairy mountain treasure realm, the second aunt will also think about sending the cloud girl. ”

The second wife asked knowingly, and deliberately made the eldest lady ugly, and threw people out of the house if she couldn't teach her well, but Ding Rou came back obviously different from before leaving, and the second wife then smiled at the eldest lady: "Sister-in-law heard that my sister came to the capital?" I heard in a trance that one of them is an imperial merchant, and gold and silver are nothing in the eyes of the imperial merchant.

"Second aunt." Ding Rou called with a smile, to everyone's surprise, Ding Rou seemed very surprised even if she was out of breath, Mrs. Tai lifted her eyelids, her hand rolled from the Buddha beads on the kang table, the eldest lady took a sip of tea with a calm face, Ding Rou said: "A few days ago, I was seriously ill, and it was not easy to recuperate in the house, and I was also worried about the illness to the elders and sisters, so I begged my mother to send me to Zhuangzi to recuperate, my mother has always cared for me, even in Zhuangzi I can feel my mother's compassion, as the saying goes, illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like chōu silk, When I was recuperating, my heart was calm, but I thought about it too much, my mother has been worried about me, and after I got well, I asked my mother to take over my house, I thanked my mother for her great kindness, accepted the naughtiness of the past, and accepted the joy under my mother's knees. When I met my grandmother today, I suddenly realized that my second aunt was also thinking about my nephew. ”

Ding Rou got up and bowed to the second wife, "I knew that the second aunt loved my nephew so much, and my nephew should visit you when she returned home, but my nephew was rude, if the second aunt is the fourth sister and the seventh sister, I have some experience, and I will talk to them another day?" ”

The second wife was slightly stunned, Ding Rou's mouth, reversed in a few simple words, it was really close to the fourth girl, hooked the fourth girl to listen to her, it was troublesome for the second wife, there was a ss out of the nv is not easy to handle, the disposal is heavy Mrs. looks at it, the eldest lady will also see the joke, the suppression is light, and the second wife is afraid that the nv of the grandson is better than her, and the limelight is robbed.

The second wife smiled reluctantly: "I'm afraid that they are stupid and can't understand the words of the sixth girl." ”

Ding Rou pursed her lips and smiled again: "The second aunt said that I was laughing, I am far better than the fourth sister and the seventh sister." "They're stupid, Ding Rou, who is worse than them, can't be more stupid? This is inconsistent with the words of the second wife praising Ding Rou before, Ding Rou put the second wife in one set, so that Mrs. Tai knew that the second wife wanted to follow Ding Rou to smear the eldest wife. The second wife didn't understand, thinking that Ding Rou would praise NV again, the eldest lady hooked the corners of her mouth and said to Mrs. Tai: "The daughter-in-law replied to her mother, the widowed sister is really miserable, and when she is settled in the capital, she will leave, please be lenient and merciful." ”

Mrs. Tai's move showed that she didn't mean to marry Ding Rou and other concubines to the merchant at all, Mrs. Tai said: "Relatives should be able to help, wait for them to go to Beijing, I will also see and listen to the news from Jiangnan." ”

Mrs. Tai is the NV of the wealthy family in Jiangnan, most of the wealthy families in Jiangnan are married to the merchants, and the old lady looks down on the greed of the merchants, not blindly looks down on the merchants, which Mrs. Tai knows very well.
