Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Power of the House

The investigation of the case in the palace, this incident contributed to the unprecedented unity of the people of the Bai Mansion, not to mention Qin Rou's entry and exit in the morning, noon and evening, Bai Sheng and the old lady often urged Bai Heng to go to the Yunxi Mansion to inquire about the news.

The family was panicked, and everyone knew that something had happened.

The second lady Chen went to Pinmei Xuan, she had been in peace for a long time since she framed her eldest sister-in-law last time and was grounded, but when Qin Rou's poisoning was exposed, the old lady did not like it, and she restrained herself from going to Rongfu Hall to fall into the well.

She took Bai Jinghao's hand and said sincerely: "Tell me, did your mother-in-law commit an accident in the palace?" The atmosphere in this house is not right, and I am always panicking. ”

Bai Jing knew that she asked knowingly, so she didn't answer and asked: "The second aunt accompanies the old lady every day, haven't you heard of it?" ”

"I've heard one or two, but I don't know if it's true or not." Chen Shi blinked, lowered his voice and said, "The queen's illness is related to your mother-in-law?" ”

"Second aunt, you can't talk nonsense, if it spreads, our Bai family will not end well."

"Yes, yes, I hope it has nothing to do with our house, I'm just worried."

Chen said and sighed, "The old lady calls Brother Heng to Hanyu Hall every day to ask questions, and the questions are all about the prince of Yunxi and the situation in the palace. This incident happened on the second day after Concubine Taisun entered the East Palace, and I thought that you also went to the palace that night, so I would like to know something, so I came to ask about the situation. ”

"Second aunt, I just accompanied the Shen family to send my cousin into the palace, and I don't know anything else in the palace."

Chen carefully observed her face, didn't see anything, and whispered quietly: "Don't you look forward to your mother-in-law's bad luck this time?" She ordered Song Lang to poison you before, so you don't hate it? ”

Bai Jinghao looked back, "I remember that the second aunt stayed in Xifu all day long, but I didn't expect to hear about it?" ”

Chen's face was slightly sneering, "Auntie has always cared about you. I'm so worried that you're suddenly sick and can't get up. ”

"Second Aunt Xie cares." Bai Jing replied politely.

Seeing that the other party refused to disclose the situation, Chen felt bored, and left without staying long.

Qiao's mother entered the house and said, "The second lady thinks that she is still thinking about the right to give money. ”

"The old lady is getting older, and when she sees that the eldest lady is hopeless, she naturally has hope."

"Gain and loss, in the final analysis, she is unwilling." Qiao's mother looked up, "Then the young lady still needs to help her?" ”

Bai Jinghao shook his head, "Don't help." ”

"But the old lady can't always control the feed. Although the second lady has selfish intentions, it is better than the eldest lady to gain power. ”

Bai Jing got up and went into the inner room, took care of her makeup in front of the makeup mirror table, and said after a while: "Are there only two of them in this mansion?" ”

Qiao's mother was sluggish at first, and then suddenly.

Bai Jinghao smiled slightly, looked out the window and said, "If you have nothing to do, I'll go and say hello to the old lady." ”

When Nuan Yue accompanied her into the Hanyu Hall, the old lady had just woken up from a nap.

Bai Jing served her to clean her face and rinse her mouth, and accompanied her to the small Buddha hall to recite the scriptures.

The old lady stretched out her hand to put her arms around her granddaughter and said with emotion: "It's hard for you to come back on such a cold day." ”

"When I came early in the morning, I heard Mama Su say that you have lost your appetite, so my granddaughter brought some jujube paste and yam cakes, hoping that my grandmother could eat some." Bai Jinghao said, called Nuanyue to bring in the food box, and personally set the plate to serve her.

The old lady ate a piece and said thoughtfully: "This jujube paste yam cake is your mother's favorite food in the past." ”

Bai Jinghao's eyes were hot, "When I was a child, my grandfather often brought it to my granddaughter to eat, and later Qiao's mother often made it." ”

"Your mother and daughter have the same taste."

Bai Jing didn't dare to mention her biological mother, and stood aside silently.

The people who accompany her when you are annoyed become more and more intimate, and the old lady holds her hand and sits beside her, "You are a filial person, only blame me for not asking about the general affairs of the house in the past, so that you have suffered many years of grievances in vain." ”

Bai Jinghao shook her head and replied, "Grandmother, don't say that. I am not wronged, I was born and nurtured in the house, and everything my granddaughter has today is given by the family. ”

When the old lady heard this, she felt even more sensible, and nodded and said, "You are kind-hearted and don't hold grudges." Your mother-in-law did such a thing to you in the palace, and she didn't go back to the house to complain, she would rather compromise and seek perfection than protect the peace of the house. It's a pity that she caused trouble by herself, and now the whole family is busy and worried about her affairs. ”

When you say this, you can't help but complain.

"Grandmother, please be relieved, my mother is from a family, and she must know how to measure and know what she can and can't do. After all, she is the housewife of our house, it is impossible to be so confused to do foolish things, the palace is just a routine investigation and inquiry now, and it will be fine when it is clear. ”

The old lady felt a little better in her heart, but she didn't hide her disgust for Qin Rou, "I know that she doesn't dare to do such a thing as raiding the family and destroying the clan, but with her temperament, she may not be clean in the palace, otherwise why worry about this and that?" ”

Bai Jinghao repeated: "After all, she is the eldest lady of the family and the main mother. ”

The more the old lady spoke, the more angry she became, and scolded: "With her virtue, how can she still be worthy of being the housewife of our Bai family?" ”

Bai Jinghao raised her hand to comb her forehead and wiped her forehead, and said guiltily when she touched her silver hair: "I heard that my grandmother has been tired recently because of the big and small things in the house, and she is all quiet." If you hadn't come forward for your granddaughter, you wouldn't have taken these things by yourself in order to punish your mother, you should have been a blessed person, but now you are so bothered, after the eldest lady is done, you should return the middle feed to her. ”

directly opened his mouth to persuade him to let go of power, and Bai Jing dared to say this kind of thing.

Qin Rou can't, Bai Sheng can't do it, and Bai Qian and Bai Jinyao are even more inappropriate. Only when Bai Jing was good, and she had been treated harshly by Qin Rou had spoken, it didn't seem offensive.

The old lady tightened her hand, "I know you feel sorry for your grandmother, but this family must not be handed over to her again." If she is in power again, she will inevitably harm you again in the open and in the dark. ”

She had already seen Qin Rou as a person.

Bai Jinghao asked again: "The second aunt?" ”

"Your second aunt's character, listening to the wind is rain, is the most susceptible to instigation to do bad things, and she is not a candidate to be in charge of the family." The old lady hadn't thought about this, after all, she had more than enough heart and strength, and it was impossible for her to take care of the house for a long time.

But my grandmother was so worried about the family, and my granddaughter was really worried when she saw it. Alas, if the eldest brother and the second brother are already married and have a sister-in-law at home, they can help you share the burden. Bai Jing seemed to sigh unintentionally.

These words made the old lady's eyes light up, and she suddenly said: "There is no young grandmother in the family, but there is a young lady." Jinghao, you are going to marry the general's mansion, the Shen family will open a child in the world, and you will also be the master mother in charge in the future, it is better to practice at home now. ”

Bai Jing got up in panic, "My granddaughter is stupid, how can she be so responsible?" ”

"Don't worry, you will follow me, if you don't understand, let Mama Su teach you." The old lady's eyebrows gradually relaxed, and she made up her mind in an instant.
