Chapter Ninety-Six: Good Family Affair (First Update)
Roche had not slept all night, and as soon as she closed her eyes, she woke up in shock, always feeling that something was staring at her in the darkness that she couldn't see, full of fear that made her feel uneasy.
She really couldn't help it, so she called Qingxing, who was waiting outside, to come in and light the lamp, she stayed up for hours and read a few pages of account books, but her mind was also floating, and it was useless after all.
As soon as the morning dawned, Mama Sun came in to serve, and seeing that her face was haggard and dizzy, she sighed in a low voice and said softly: "Madame, let's rest a little longer, it's not too late to talk about anything later." ”
Luo turned his face to look at her: "Where did the general rest yesterday?" ”
Grandma Sun said in a low voice: "In the study in the front yard, Chunliu and Pothos are waiting in front of you. ”
Chunliu and Luluo are both domestic servants in the house, and the grandmother is on the Zhuangzi in Luo's hands, so there is nothing to worry about.
But Roche still refused to give up: "Have you ever gone elsewhere?" ”
Grandma Sun shook her head: "No, it's just ......"
"Just what?" Roche suddenly sat up straight, looked at her and asked.
When Mama Sun saw her appearance, she had no choice but to continue: "I just heard that Mrs. Ping went to the front yard yesterday." ”
The account book in Luo's hand was thrown on the desk with a click, his face was full of anger, and he said coldly: "I knew that it had only been a few days, and the general had only been back home for a few days, so they couldn't help it, and they were in a hurry to go." ”
"This is to see that I have lost the power to be in charge of the family now, and the generals treat me as well as before, so they dare to make ghosts under my nose! I'm still in this house, and I'm still the general's wife! ”
Seeing that her expression was really terrifying, Mama Sun hurriedly persuaded: "Madame, don't be angry, the maid just listened to the janitor of the second gate, saying that Mrs. Ping went to the front yard yesterday, maybe she ......."
Roche squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "What is there to say, she has pretended to be in front of me all these years, looking honest and obedient, isn't she just waiting for this day!" ”
"She's going to ride on top of me!"
When she thought of Gu Qing returning home that day, the Liu family looked docile, but let Gu Qing talk to her softly, but she was indifferent to herself, and her heart was like a fire, and she was tormented.
Mama Sun was a little uneasy: "Madam, what should I do?" ”
Gu Qing refused to return to Chunhui Hall to live, but he couldn't live without a woman by his side, and the Liu family had the supple appearance of a small jasper, so he was afraid that he would get his wish if he went to the front yard a few times.
Luo slowly smoothed out the crumpled account book, and sneered: "Don't worry, come the same." ”
There are too many people in this mansion who make her unhappy, all of them look at her usual gentleness and compassion, thinking that they can pinch her casually, but they forget how much thought and means she has to marry into this mansion, she is not a raccoon cat, but a hungry tiger!
Songshou Courtyard has been crowded with people these days, and it is easy for Mrs. Qian, who is guarding the door at the gate of the courtyard, to sit down and eat a mouthful of the little maid's filial piety.
She squinted her eyes with satisfaction, and said to the little maid on the side: "But I'm tired, I have come to kowtow to the old lady in the past two days, and the people who come and go almost broke my threshold, and I am so busy that my feet do not touch the ground, and it is rare to rest." ”
The little maid watched her open her skirt and sit by the door to fan the wind, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile: "The old lady is now in charge of the house, naturally there are housekeepers and grandmothers who want to go in to reply, you are afraid that you are still busy." ”
Mrs. Qian smiled proudly: "According to me, this family has to be in front of the old lady to be suitable, the first lady is in charge, where in this mansion where people remember to come to this courtyard, there are not even a few people who kowtow to ask for peace, and they have never put the old lady in their eyes at all." ”
She naturally looked forward to the old lady being in charge of the house, otherwise no one would want to honor her for this, just to beg her to help her.
It's just that she didn't expect that before the words fell, Luo Shi had already entered the door with Grandma Sun and Qingxing, and when she heard her words, her eyes looked coldly.
Mrs. Qian shivered firmly, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask for peace: "Big lady." ”
In his heart, he was stunned by Luo's cold gaze, Mrs. is kind and kind on weekdays, who has ever seen such a look.
Luo Shi didn't have the smile on his face, stared at Mrs. Qian coldly, and led people towards the main hall.
Mrs. Qian was stunned, and hurriedly walked over from the side and passed it to Luo.
Old Madam Gu was listening impatiently to the housekeeper's grandmother returning to the flowers in the house, and the grandmother was rambling for a long time, just to tell her that there was a lot more money this month, and she had to pay money from the account.
She became angry and said fiercely: "I want to receive more money and silver, where is there so much money, I'm afraid that you will steal and play tricks one by one, and deduct the money and silver in the house!" ”
The housekeeper was aggrieved, such a big mansion costs money just for people to chew on horses, not to mention that there are so many social supplements, their monthly money is already very little, but they still say that they spend too much.
She wanted to say a few more words, but Old Madam Gu had already waved her hand impatiently and let her go.
Luo happened to come in, and when he saw this, he guessed seven or eight points, but he just smiled and didn't talk much, and when the grandmother went out, he stepped forward and curtsied: "Ah Jia." ”
Old Madam Gu was already angry, and she was even more bored when she saw her, so she said with a sigh: "What's the matter?" ”
Luo sat on the couch with a smile and said to Mrs. Gu: "Happy event, great happy event." ”
She waved her hand to let the servants serving in the room retreat, and then said to Mrs. Gu with a smile: "Didn't the Ah family ask me to visit a marriage for Mingzhu before?" But it just so happens that there is an excellent one right now, and it couldn't be more suitable. ”
Old Madam Gu raised her eyebrows: "There is a suitable one so soon?" What kind of family is it? ”
Luo Che smiled and said: "I went back to Bofu yesterday to offer incense to the old lady, and it happened that my second aunt, Mrs. An Ning, took my hand and said that she had something to ask me to visit for the princess for a marriage. ”
"I originally refused to agree, after all, this marriage is not child's play, where do you know if it is suitable or not, but then I think about it, isn't this a ready-made good thing?"
Luo Shi stroked his palm, and his face was happy: "The prince of Bofu, with a good and steady character, and a family that knows the roots, which one is better than this." ”
Old Madam Gu frowned when she heard this: "Isn't that your cousin?" It's a generation difference with Mingzhu, how can it be suitable! ”
Luo Zhi didn't care: "Mingzhu is not his own niece, it's far away, who will mention this if he gets married, don't shy away from it." Besides, like him, I'm afraid it's hard to find it again, Mingzhu is blessed! ”
