Chapter 111: Words of the Heart
"My niece is sober." Chen Ying showed her usual smile to Shen, and there was no emotion in her watery eyes: "Go to the village to live, but you want to be quiet." ”
When Shen heard this, he immediately twitched the corners of his mouth: "Come on, three girls." Aren't you just trying to get away with it? She looked at Chen Ying's gaze with a deep disdain: "Suddenly, you came to such a show, and your words were so generous, the old lady naturally didn't want to investigate carefully, but she couldn't just wronged you like this, she must return a fair life to your second room, maybe in a few days, I will add some acres of farmland to you, and appease your second room with a good life." ”
The more she spoke, the more uncomfortable she became, and for a while, the hatred and hatred of the past came to her heart, so the tone became more and more sour, and said: "In the end, there is a person with the name of a detective, who is a hundred times smarter than us rough people, and is so gentle and clever that he is both good and good-looking, and your aunt and I can't compare." ”
She said this sentence quite a lot, but the strange thing was that Old Madam Xu not only did not interrupt her like Fang Cai, but closed her eyes, as if she was closing her eyes to recuperate.
"The granddaughter didn't mean anything else. I just don't want to spend it like this anymore. Chen Ying said very calmly, but she didn't pay attention to the Shen family, but faced Mrs. Xu: "Since this happened, it is better for the granddaughter to leave, so as not to disturb everyone's peace." ”
There was another dead silence in the room.
Although Chen Ying's words were flat, the meaning of the words was unthinkable.
"Three girls, what you said is honest and punishable." After a long time, Xu Shi opened his mouth lightly.
Her tone was as gentle as ever, but sharp in her rhetoric.
After speaking, she turned around and sat on the chair, wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, the smile on her face was indifferent and appropriate, without a trace of gaps, and said: "The matter of the victory is a big taboo in the house, you don't say to investigate, you are still bent on going out to hide quietly." How do you tell those of us who live here to live with ourselves? You're clean when you leave like this, can't you tell us to stay and you guess me, I guess you? ”
At this point, she paused slightly, and smiled again: "The three girls are beautiful in the forest, above everyone, the eldest aunt thinks this is very good, but she shouldn't be like this in front of her own family." ”
"Hey, what kind of wood shows in the forest? Sister-in-law, you are too much to put gold on the face of the third girl. Shen seemed to be going to sing a double reed with Xu's, and at this time he immediately said, and threw a glance at Chen Ying as he spoke, with a mocking face: "In my opinion, this may be a big show, the three girls are happy to sing by themselves, you have a cheap second room, but you have to tire us if you don't." ”
These words are alluding to Chen Ying's bitter tricks, making a paper figure to defile herself, and then using herself as an excuse to invite herself to the grange, highlighting her attitude of taking care of the overall situation and enduring humiliation, so as to ask Mrs. Xu for benefits with these.
From an outsider's point of view, this is indeed a very reasonable explanation.
"That's it, don't say any more." Old Madam Xu finally opened the golden mouth, and while speaking, she opened her eyes, staring indifferently at Shen's body, and her voice was also faint: "Although I am old, I have not yet arrived home in a daze." ”
Shen's face froze, and she subconsciously looked up, and as soon as she touched the indifferent eyes of Old Madam Xu, she immediately lowered her head and said in a snort: "The old lady is wise, daughter-in-law...... That's what the daughter-in-law said. ”
Old Madam Xu sighed "Hmm", no longer paid attention to her, but turned to Xu, and her tone became softer: "Don't take it to heart, the third girl is still young." ”
This is to appease Xu and tell her not to be serious with Chen Ying
In detail, Chen Ying's approach is indeed very inconsistent with the rules of the house.
How can you just throw things away like this? Isn't this a disguised stigma for everyone?
Old Mrs. Xu didn't like Chen Ying in the first place, and she didn't like it even more at this time, she always felt that this granddaughter was acting strangely, and there was nothing to be desired.
However, she has a natural trust in Chen Ying's character.
Even in front of Empress Dowager Xiao, Chen Ying had everything to say and refused to succumb to the other party's power. How can such a person make small moves behind his back?
Xu naturally heard the meaning of Mrs. Xu's words, the hand holding the handkerchief tightened, her face was still very gentle, and she bowed her head in the seat and said, "The daughter-in-law listens to the old lady's instructions." ”
When she said this, she lowered her eyebrows and eyes, and a thick haze had already gathered.
Chen Ying and Chen Lu have not had a good relationship recently, who in the Manchu Mansion doesn't know? As a result, now that Chen Ying has found something surprising, as long as he thinks about it a little more, Changfang will definitely become the target of everyone.
Xu's fingers pinching the handkerchief clenched very tightly, and the fingertips were white, but she still didn't know.
At this moment, she was actually extremely annoyed in her heart.
But as long as Chen Ying takes care of some decency and understands some reason, she should first inform the Xu family, who is the sect wife, not Mrs. Xu.
Now that the matter has stabbed Mingyuan Hall, the Xu family has not even prepared, in case someone is secretly calculating their long room, even if the Xu family wants to investigate, it will be very passive.
This is also why she said that Chen Ying was "punishing her heart".
Chen Ying's punishment is the heart of their long house.
Xu frowned and thought about this, but she heard the voice of Old Madam Xu in her ears, and she suddenly came back to her senses.
"Third girl, grandmother will definitely give you an explanation for this matter, as for going to the grange, grandmother will not agree." Old Madam Xu said, her voice was slow, but the meaning of her words was extremely strong.
Hearing this, a trace of mockery crossed Xu's lowered eyes.
Chen Ying wanted to retreat as advance, but the old lady would not agree to the first one, and sure enough, it was really stupid to lift a stone and shoot herself in the foot.
Chen Ying was not surprised at all.
This was what she expected, but at this time, she just smiled quietly and strangely, and said: "Otherwise, this case of Wei Sheng, the granddaughter will now be tried in front of her grandmother, aunt and three aunts." And after the results of the trial, it is not too late for the grandmother to reply to her granddaughter. ”
As soon as these words came out, Fang Zhongzhong fell silent.
Old Madam Xu stared at Chen Ying, her eyes seemed to be surprised, and both Xu and Shen were shocked.
Settle the matter on the spot?
That's too much, isn't it?
For example, this kind of thing is the most involved in the inner house, involving a lot, and the most important thing is to take into account the dignity of the masters, so it is extremely time-consuming to investigate, not to take ten days and half a month, don't even want to find out a meridian, and often find out to the end, it is just to ask for a peace of mind, as for the merits, then only God knows.
But Chen Ying said at this time that she was able to find out about the matter on the spot, which was a bit unbelievable. Even if Mrs. Xu went out in person, she couldn't say anything to find out about this matter immediately.
