The master and servant recounted a few more gossips, and Mama Cui said carefully: "Taking advantage of Mrs. Lee's time, there is something that the old slave wants to report to Mrs. ”

Cheng smiled and asked, "What does Mama want to say?" ”

Mama Cui pointed to the west and said with a smile: "It's still that one's business." ”

Cheng shook his hand for a moment, and the smile faded instantly.

"She's in the house again?" After a while, she spoke, her eyebrows full of impatience: "She has been dead for almost a month, and she hasn't been given any money before her funeral, so the family is still insufficient?" ”

She shook the fan vigorously, and the fan was "fluttering and fluttering", and her voice seemed to be stained with anger: "Why are there so many things in their family?" An old aunt is just dead, and when she dies, this family really treats herself as an in-law? Just by them? Do they deserve it too? ”

"Snap" threw the fan on the case, Cheng picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and when he spoke again, he was a little resentful: "It's not that I said, the uncle is also too good, look at the aunt who gave birth to three girls, and specially told me to bury it, and I didn't refute it?" The silver sent was enough for twenty taels, enough for their family to chew for the whole year, and they had to look forward to Shu. ”

Mama Cui kept laughing and didn't speak.

This Aunt Yu was carried by the first wife, and she was born with a beautiful appearance, but unfortunately, her stomach is not angry, the first lady has been dead for so long, and Aunt Yu has not had a man and a woman.

On the contrary, after Cheng's family passed the door and gave birth to two boys and two girls, this Aunt Yu was also an old clam and gave birth to Guo Ling, which can be regarded as old and dependent.

It's just that she is blessed, and her daughter's blessing has not yet been enjoyed, but she died of illness last month. Because she has never been very troublesome, but she is just a little greedy for money, Cheng has never treated her harshly, and sent people well.

That Aunt Yu's family was originally a servant of Xingjibo's Mansion, and a few years ago, she left her nationality to do business, and she has always had Aunt Yu's help, but she suffered from poor business and always lost money.

Speaking of which, this matter is by no means a big deal, but it is not easy to deal with, just because there is a Xingjibo in it.

Xing Jibo still has a little old affection for his aunt, if one is not good, offending the Yu family is small, teaching Xing Jibo and Cheng to have a gap, but it is not worth it.

Cheng and Mama Cui have been servants for many years, and they know what they mean, so they drank two sips of tea with a calm face, and waved their hands tiredly: "That's it, Mama will go to the account room and say something, and give them another thirty taels of silver, and make up a whole number." Tell them again, although Aunt Yu has no heirs, in the end she also raised three girls, no merit, and hard work, these fifty taels of silver can be regarded as a little bit of our heart. ”

Mama Cui responded, thought about it, and looked at her face and said: "Madam, the old slave saw that there were a lot of dry goods piled up in the warehouse, and no one ate it, and the weather was hot, and it was a pity that the white mold was broken, Madame, ...... it."

"Mama is in charge." Cheng interrupted her, and the tiredness on her face became thicker: "I don't care if I give them anything, I will have all the courtesies and the face of our uncle's mansion, and that's it." ”

Mama Cui complied, and was about to go down, when Cheng suddenly called her again: "Mama and slow." ”

Mama Cui hurriedly turned around: "What else does Madame have to say?" ”

Cheng raised his head suddenly, his eyebrows and eyes were cold, and his voice was as cold as a soaking ice knife: "I don't want to see this family again, this is also the last time I will help them in Xingjibo Mansion, can you understand what I mean?" ”

Mama Cui bowed down solemnly: "The old slave can be saved, Mrs. rest assured." ”

"That's it." Cheng waved his hand again: "Mama has worked hard, go quickly." ”

Cui Mama just went, but Cheng was still sitting on the side of the case, thinking about the wind and evening building, full of sorrow, only to feel that nothing went well, nothing was not annoying, and she couldn't help but become more and more restless, still picked up a fan to draw the wind, and wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, and was about to call someone to come in and add another ice jian, suddenly, there was a peck sound outside the door.

"What?" Cheng was already in a bad mood, and there was a sense of anger in his voice.

"Mrs. Hui, there is a commotion in Songyun Courtyard." The person outside the door was cautious.

Songyun Temple is the residence of Guo Chong and Xia.

Cheng's expression froze, the hand holding the handkerchief suddenly tightened, and he commanded with raised eyebrows: "Come in and talk." ”

The words landed, the bead curtain was tall, and another housekeeper mother of Rongchun Hall, Xing Duobao's family, walked in quickly.

She didn't have to be flustered, and after entering the door, she bowed down: "Mrs. Qiyu, Mrs. Zhao from Songyun Courtyard came to report that the second wife was making trouble and wanted to hang herself." ”

"Hang yourself!" Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment, and then put the fan on the case with a "bang", and said angrily: "What's wrong with her today?" How do you get rid of moths? Can't she just stay honest? ”

Xing Duobao's eyes and nose looked at the mouth, and he didn't answer, but said again: "Mrs. Zhao said that the people in the yard can't be persuaded at all, and the second master is also annoyed now, and he is asking people everywhere to find a rope to hang the second wife." ”

Xing Duobaojia lowered his head tightly, his eyes staring at his feet: "The slave maid asks the lady to show me." ”

Cheng's face turned green with anger, and his heart, liver, spleen and lungs hurt together.

What is this called?

How could this Xia not stop for a while? This one after another, is it to exhaust her mother-in-law?

"Let's see." Suppressed with disgust, Cheng got up with a gloomy face, didn't care about changing his clothes, and walked out with his feet up.

Seeing this, Xing Duobao's family hurriedly beckoned a group of servants to follow, and everyone stepped out of the courtyard gate.

The rain had stopped, the sun was shining in the sky, and the eaves and stone paths reflected a large area of water, which pierced people's eyes. The heat came up again and again, and it was not much worse than the steamer.

Xing Duobao's family held a hexagonal flower palace fan, diligently fanning the wind for Cheng's family, and there was a little maid on the side with an umbrella to shade Cheng Shurong, and the stars guarded this Mrs. Bo like the moon.

couldn't go far, Cheng frowned and waved his hand: "You retreat first, the criminal family will talk back and forth." ”

Xing Duobao's family hurriedly took the umbrella in Xiao Wei's hand, and ordered her to retreat, and the Cheng family had already asked in a deep voice: "Why did the second wife make trouble?" Wouldn't it be for her mother's little money? ”

The Xia family's investment in the wind and evening building is known to almost everyone in the house, and this question is not abrupt.

When Xing Duobao's family heard this, they looked around, and saw that the servants were far away, so Fang suppressed his voice and said: "Mrs. Hui, the slaves and maids don't know very well, they only listened to what Mrs. Zhao said in a trance, I'm afraid it's for that ...... The moon girl. ”

When Cheng heard this, his brows relaxed, his feet eased, and his complexion improved a little: "What else should I do, it was for her." ”
