Chapter 213: Questioning
"What did the fourth master say was looking for me?" Mama Song asked the little girl who came to summon the news.
The little girl laughed with her, "The fourth master ordered to come down, only to say that looking for grandma, thinking about it is an important matter, how can you tell the maid to know." ”
"Auntie." Mrs. Xin turned her head and looked at Mama Song.
It was Qi You, not Xun Qingran looking for her. She also had something to say to Qi You.
Mama Song gave Mrs. Xin a reassuring look, "Don't worry, girl, I'll go back as soon as I go." ”
Mama Song came out of Xinlan Courtyard, and as she walked, she was thinking quickly in her heart. Early this morning, Qi Wanrong arrived at home, walked to Xinlan Courtyard, and happened to see her using milk to soak her hands for Xin Nu, and said something very ugly, sarcastically saying that she and Xin Nu Hao are slaves, and they are not worthy of such a good thing. She is nothing, but when did Xin Nuhao suffer such a grievance, once upon a time, Qi Wanrong was not qualified to go to Xin Nuhao at all, so she could only look at it from a distance.
She naturally protected the Xin woman, but Qi Wanrong pretended to be her aunt and grandmother, and she was even more disrespectful, and planned to teach the Xin woman a lesson.
Qi Wanrong's personality, she is clear, she immediately thought that this matter is not so simple. It must have been instigated and instigated by Xun Qingran. Although Xun Qingran treated Xin Woman as a guest on the surface, she didn't want to see her in her heart, so she didn't want to come forward to rectify it in person, so she borrowed Qi Wanrong's hand to rectify it.
At that time, Xun Qingran was listening to the drama in the Dong Mansion, no matter what happened to the inner house, it was not Xun Qingran's head. Qi Wanrong is an aunt, and Xin Nu Hao is only her niece in name, and Xin Nu Hao has suffered a loss in Qi Wanrong's hands, and she can only be a dumb loss, so she can only endure it.
She can't let Xun Qing succeed, and she can't let Xin Nu suffer such an insult in vain. Therefore, she immediately found someone to go to the yamen to invite Qi Yu back.
Sure enough, as soon as Qi You heard that something had happened in Xinlan Courtyard, he immediately rushed back from the yamen. She also knew that even if Qi You was dissatisfied with Qi Wanrong, she would not do anything to this married cousin for a while. She was waiting for Xun Qingran, Qi Wanrong came, and someone would definitely invite Xun Qingran back. As soon as Xun Qingran arrived, she teamed up with Xin Nu Hao to perform a good show, so that Qi You understood that this incident was not that Qi Wanrong embarrassed Xin Nu without knowing it, but that Xun Qingran deliberately made a trap to insult Xin Nu Hao.
Mrs. Xin is a distinguished guest, and it was originally the fault of the housewife that the guest was wronged at home, not to mention that this grievance was deliberately instructed by the housewife. She knows very well the weight of the person who entrusted Xin Nuhao to Qi You in Qi You's heart. Seeing that Qi You didn't even have time to put down the horsewhip and rushed to Xinlan Courtyard, she was even more sure in her heart.
is reasonable, Qi Yu should not let go of Xun Qingran. Even if you don't know how to whip Xun Qingran, a reprimand, or embarrassment is inevitable. Then the people in this mansion will also follow to see who is the most noble in this mansion.
But it didn't go her way. Qi You only ordered to supply ** for Xinlan Courtyard alone, but did not punish Xun Qingran.
She was a little disappointed, but when she thought about it, she was relieved. Xun Qingran is the main mother and the wife of the Governor's Mansion. Even if Qi You is angry, he will endure it and will not attack Xun Qing in front of everyone. This is not that Qi Yu values Xun Qingran, but values his own decency.
Qi You has always been a calm and clear man.
It's like the marriage with Xun Qing at the beginning. Qi You is not keen on it, and he has no good impression of Xun Qingran, but after marrying Xun Qingran and entering the door, he still gave Xun Qingran enough decency in front of people. Qi You was raised by Rong's side, of course he understands the way husband and wife get along in the family, his wife is a pillow person, even if he doesn't like it, he will support him, at least in front of people. He can dislike her, but he won't let her know, and he has to think about her to like him and think about him. Especially in a big family, so as not to give others a chance to take advantage of it, in order to best protect their own interests.
As for behind closed doors, how do the two ......
Mama Song pursed her lips, she looked at the two of them like glue, but she was a person from the past, and she understood the truth best. Qi You's blood is strong, and it is the first time to be so close to a woman, that Xun Qing has a good appearance, and she is willing to work hard, and she has temporarily enveloped Qi You, has she seen less such things. As for those girls, seeing that the male owner finally fell in love, he thought he had a chance, hum. She sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, thinking that it was best to lose both. As a result, those restless girls were eradicated one by one, Xun Qingran was unharmed, although she was a little unwilling, but she also secretly applauded, Xun Qingzhen did a good job, saving her strength.
Mama Song thought in her heart that she had arrived at the main courtyard. She straightened her clothes and walked up the steps, thinking about how to talk to Qi You.
wanted Qi Yu to attack Xun Qingzhi in front of everyone, so that the subordinates in this mansion could understand the good status of Xin women, but this goal was not achieved. But there should be no problem in using this incident to let Qi You understand the good situation of the Xin woman and achieve her other goal.
She wants to regain the power of the steward.
Qi You asked her to go to Lanxin Yuan to take care of Xin Nu, and Xun Qingran took the opportunity to take away all her other errands. She has no authority in her hands now, relying solely on the prestige she has established in the past, but this will not last long. Xun Qingran screened the people brought to Pingxi Town, and after a period of time, these people were all grass on the wall, and they were completely poured to Xun Qingran's side.
She couldn't let the Xin woman have a good life like this. She wants to take back the power of the housekeeper, even if it is only a part, so that it is convenient to take care of the Xin woman. If she doesn't have power in her hands, she will be blinded and unable to move her subordinates. She has been rolling in the back house for half her life, and she understands the past and the unspeakable things.
Through this incident, she wanted Qi You to understand that she, a mother-in-law without any power, could not take good care of Xin's wife. There are so many things to do outside, and in this inner house, the good and bad life of the Xin woman cannot only be pinned on Xun Qingran's kindness, generosity, and knowledge. Even if Xun Qingran really has these virtues, he can't.
The little girl opened the curtains, and Mama Song stepped into the house.
"I've seen the fourth master." Mama Song greeted Qi You.
"Say hello to grandma." Mama Song looked up and saw that Xun Qingran was also present, and she was shocked, but she immediately calmed down. This matter, everyone in the house is watching, even if it is in front of Xun Qingran, she still has to say what she wants to say. After all, in Xinlan Courtyard, if she and Mrs. Xin were good, Xun Qingran would not have heard it.
This tone is decided today.
Bet on the hard work of her half of her life, this old face, and the weight of that person in Qi You's heart.
Mama Song made up her mind in her heart.
The two people on the seat, one leisurely drinking tea, the other for a while, did not make a sound.
Mama Song didn't rush to speak, she didn't live in vain in this half of her life, and when it came to patience, she didn't lose to others.
After a while, Mama Song raised her eyes and looked at Qi You. If she doesn't go back for a long time, Xin Nu Hao may be worried.
"What the hell is going on today?" Qi You finally spoke.
It was Qi You who came to ask her, but Xun Qingran sat idly next to her. This is in Mama Song's eyes, but she sees hope.
Without any consideration, Mama Song replied, "...... It was the fifth aunt and grandmother who saw the good woman and sneered, saying......"
How things happened, Xun Qingran didn't care at all. She didn't stay to listen to Mama Song's defense.
"Mama seems to have forgotten her identity, looking at him left and right, what is Mama hiding?" Xun Qingran asked coldly.
Mama Song was stunned, Xun Qingran has always spoken to people with a smile, and now she is still in front of Qi You, how can she be so cold.
"The minion doesn't understand Grandma's words."
"Mama is an old man in the Guogong Mansion, and she knows the rules better than me. I asked Mama who was in charge of this inner house and what happened to her, but Mama didn't send someone to find me, but sent someone to the yamen to find the fourth master back. What does Mama think of me? But you think I'm not worthy to be the mistress of this house? What does Mama think of the fourth master as doing, the fourth master is an official of the imperial court, and he is solving local affairs, but he was coaxed back by Mama's exaggerated words, and solved such a thing as two children fighting for **? Mama thinks that what the fourth master has done is not in line with Mama's wishes, and she is happy to ask someone to impeach the fourth master? ”
Mama Song was speechless when asked. Even if she didn't treat Xun Qingran as her master, she didn't dare to say it anyway. As for Xun Qingran's other accusation, in her eyes, the good thing of Xin Nu is a great thing, besides, Qi You, as the governor of Pingxi Town, is naturally the emperor of the soil on this side, what Qi You wants to do, who dares to disagree.
It's just that I can't say anything.
"This is one thing, and the other one, and Mama has disappointed me very much." Xun Qingran said again, "Miss Xin and the fifth aunt and grandmother are still young, but grandma is experienced. Two children, with a child's temper, with the ability of a grandmother, but in a few words, they persuaded peace. Mama not only did not persuade her, but she wanted to fan the flames, but she was afraid that the matter would not be big enough. Mama, what kind of intentions is this? ”
"Slave, slave, what is the identity, where can I manage it." Mama Song argued.
"What is the identity of Mama, but she can make a moving person to invite the fourth master back? Even if I have something, I have to wait until the fourth master finishes his official business and comes back from the yamen before I dare to discuss with the fourth master. Mama, what do you think you are? ”
Xun Qingran asked rhetorically, and then said: "Speaking of identity, Mama is diverting the topic again, hiding people's eyes." I also want to ask Mama, the good woman is a guest, do I have a place where I am not well treated? ”
Mama Song looked at Qi You, if it was said that Xun Qingran was not well entertained, she couldn't give a specific example.
"How do I treat Miss Xin, who in this house doesn't look at it? The fourth master specially arranged for Mama to serve the good girl, what does Mama think it means? Not only to take care of the women and girls, but also to trust the mother. Mama represents me and the fourth master. Between the guests and the host, if there is any misunderstanding between the woman and the girl, the grandmother should resolve it from it, so as to live up to the fourth master's trust in the grandmother. If there is something, Mama mediated first, and then quietly told me that there is something that cannot be solved, which is Mama's loyalty. But how did Mama do it? Double-faced, three-faced, three-instigated and four-instigated, slander and trouble, ask yourself, who are you worthy of doing this, and what are your intentions? ”
Mama Song looked up, Qi You's eyes were deep, and her face was cold.
