Chapter 15: Hatred Deepens!
Because of Old Madam Tao's order, she asked Su He to go back to her house to tell Old Madam Xin Fubing's answer, and she led the other people with the rewards into the courtyard where the water was filled.
At this time, Xiao Tao was already shushing the cold and asking for warmth, and when he saw her coming, he said with a smile: "I just said that I would go to your yard to report the good news, but you are not there." But did you hear good news from your grandmother? His eyes flickered to the subordinate holding something behind her, and he couldn't help but be surprised, "You are so good at kung fu that you have packed up the congratulatory gifts?" I thought I was fast enough! ”
"How can I have such fast hands and feet?" Qiu Yulan smiled and glanced at Sheng Shushui, who was forced to press on the couch, "It's all grandmother's thoughtful sixteenth sister-in-law, oh, I happened to go to find my grandmother, so I ran an errand for my grandmother!" ”
"I said it!" Little Dow suddenly.
At this time, Sheng Shushui hurriedly thanked Qiu Yulan for his hard work, and asked someone to take things next.
"What's so hard or not, it's just a few steps, and if I don't send something for my grandmother, I'll come too, right?" Qiu Yulan asked curiously, "How many months?" ”
"A few months?" Xiao Tao couldn't help but laugh when he heard this pretending to be a good but clearly childish question, "You see that the sixteen brothers and sisters are the same as usual, naturally the days are still shallow." ”
Sheng Shuishui's cheeks were slightly red, and he smiled: "Less than two months...... I'm not usually very accurate in my menstrual affairs, but this time ......"
Before he finished speaking, his face turned even redder, so he simply stopped talking.
Qiu Yulan was about to tease her a few words, but someone outside came to report: "The sixth young lady, the seventh young lady and the fourteenth young lady are here." ”
"Please!" Sheng Shushui hurriedly said, and he was about to get up to greet him.
Xiao Tao hurriedly supported her: "Be careful!" Looking at the eighth sister-in-law's careless expression, Qiu Yulan couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth.
When he went out, Xiao Tao asked Sheng Shushui to go slowly.
So they didn't walk out of the weeping flower gate for a long time, and the three Shi came in first.
Seeing Sheng Shushui surrounded by stars and moons, they said unexpectedly: "Why did you come out to greet you in person?" Come in and sit down! ”
A group of people hugged Sheng Shushui into the house, and after the guests and hosts were seated, the sisters-in-law naturally couldn't help but greet with concern, Shi and Zhang had both given birth and raised, and passed on some experience as a person who came over...... Halfway through the conversation, the concubines of the big house and the sixth room also came.
However, only the small Dou family and the small Zhuang family came to the big house.
Regarding the Miao family, they all said: "She has had some cold in the past two days, and she is afraid that she will give her sixteen brothers and sisters after being sick, so she didn't dare to come, so she only asked us to bring a congratulatory gift." ”
Forget it, everyone listens to this, anyway, everyone here knows the real situation - Jiang Yadan was persuaded out of the big house that day, and really went straight to the Miao family to "seek justice" for his wife, and then the Miao family suffered: the things that were smashed by Jiang Yadan when he attacked, and the compensation fee that was only enough after selling half of the family business is a trivial matter, the key is that Jiang Yadan is so troublesome, everyone knows that the Miao family has an arrogant daughter, and for no reason he slapped his brother and daughter-in-law in public, not to mention, the one who was beaten was the daughter of the famous Tao family in this dynasty, or the virtuous and gentle recognized by the government and the opposition!
Even if Jiang Yadan has a bad reputation, but Xiao Tao's virtuous name is there, this time his blackmail and blackmail actually did not fall into any infamy, but won back some impression points...... For example, Empress Jiang said openly: "In the past, I always thought that Dan'er was ignorant, but now I see if he still knows the truth of husband and wife." ”
When the queen's words came out, the future of the Miao family can be known!
So the Miao family was so angry that they would have come back to life, if it weren't for Dou's persuasion, they would have been eager to kick the Miao family out of the house!
Now the Miao family can be said to have lost all their faces inside and out, where is it embarrassing to come out, and even the Qin Guogong ordered Qiu Yulan and his wife to hold a banquet for her before and resolutely pushed it away...... Especially today's happy event is a four-room event, I want to know that Xiao Tao, who was beaten by her, and Qiu Yulan, who beat her, will definitely be there. She's coming, isn't she more and more self-conscious?
"Nineteen brothers and sisters." When the concubines were talking long and short about Sheng Shushui, Mi Yinyin suddenly walked up to Qiu Yulan, pulled her sleeve, pulled her into the corner and asked, "Is Cousin Xin where you are?" ”
"yes, what's wrong?" Qiu Yulan looked at her complicated expression, speculating about her intention to ask?
Mi Yinyin bit her lips lightly, and asked after a moment: "Are you persuading her?" What did she say? ”
"I just received the good news from my sixteenth sister-in-law, and I haven't figured out how to tell her when I go back." Although Qiu Yulan was not as close to Mi Yinyin as she was to Xin Fubing before, she didn't have any grudges. Just knew that Jiang Yalan had unrequited love for Xin Fubing, and this would be Xin Fubing's situation was pitiful, Mi Yinyin chased after her to ask this question, she felt a little annoyed, and deliberately asked, "Why does the thirteenth sister-in-law also want to go with me to persuade her?" ”
Mi Yinyin sensed her displeasure, pursed her lips and said, "No, it's just that when I came over, my mother heard that Cousin Xin was with you, so let me ask, after all, the fifth aunt and the fifth uncle are not in Beijing now, and we are also worried about her." ”
"Miss Ou has been with her every inch for the past two days." Qiu Yulan heard her words insincerely, and replied indifferently.
Sensing her displeasure, Mi Yinyin frowned, thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Do you think we are targeting her?" But this is too wrong for us, not the meaning of the above......"
"Thirteenth sister-in-law, you think too much, I don't feel anything." Qiu Yulan interrupted her unceremoniously, "As for what you mean, I don't know very well, you can go back to Cousin Xin and say it to your face, you don't have to tell me!" ”
"What are you two talking about hiding here?" The atmosphere between the two of them was awkward, and Shui Jin happened to come over and laugh, "What do you say, can you tell me something quiet?" ”
"Say you're stingy, the sixteenth sister-in-law has azalea bonsai here, why don't we have it there?" Qiu Yulan quipped casually.
He Shuijin looked at her line of sight, and sure enough, it was a pot of energetic cuckoos, and he couldn't help but smile: "This is really wronged!" This is obviously the dowry of the sixteen brothers and sisters, where is the family dividing? ”
laughed and scolded Qiu Yulan, "If it is divided by the family, just a bonsai, will I still ignore you?" ”
"Just kidding! Good sister-in-law, you love me so much, how can you forget me with good things? Qiu Yulan smiled and begged for mercy.
While they were laughing, Mi Yinyin took the opportunity to walk away.
Seeing this, He Shui Jin's voice was low: "She came to ask you about Cousin Xin?" ”
"What else could it be?" Qiu Yulan didn't hide her dislike, "Cousin Xin never robbed her of the thirteenth brother from beginning to end, did she treat Cousin Xin as a thief like this?" I don't want to think about how bitter Cousin Xin will be, and she looks like Cousin Xin doesn't marry for a day, and she doesn't feel at ease...... By the way, Cousin Xin agreed to the marriage, and just now she asked me to go to see my grandmother, and I forgot to send someone to tell you. ”
"Oh? That's good—but if you want to talk about the thirteenth sister-in-law, you really don't want to say it! When He Shui Jin heard this, he shook his head and said softly, "She came to ask you about this now, and she wasn't all worried about Cousin Xin - except for the sisters-in-law who had already entered the door, this would probably mean that you were not under much pressure, after all, you have only been through the door for a month." But the thirteenth sister-in-law and me, can the pressure be too great? ”
Qiu Yulan was stunned, and when he saw He Shuijin looking at the Sheng Shui in the crowd, he suddenly thought about it, and said with Old Lady Tao's previous words: "Heirs are all fate, and those who should come will always ......"
"That's what you say, but you also know that being a daughter-in-law is the right thing to do!" He Shuijin sighed, "If you have a son and a half daughter, you have to be more embarrassed when you turn around and talk to your elders!" The day when I, my thirteenth sister-in-law, and my sixteenth brother and sister entered the door was very close, and now the sixteenth brother and sister have spread the good news, but we ......."
Qiu Lulan finally understood why she was only slightly surprised, and Mrs. Tao was about to say comfort-this year, being someone's daughter-in-law, the pressure of having a child, is really not ordinary.
Even people like He Shui Jin, who took care of the accounts without going through the door, were the first to get pregnant because of Sheng Shui, and they were worried!
"It's okay for everyone else to say that, you?" Qiu Yulan wanted to make the atmosphere more relaxed, so he deliberately smiled, "You are not decent enough in front of the elders?" ”
He Shuijin smiled: "Our parents are kind, and they have always given us decency." But I smiled bitterly in my heart: If it is really so good, will I calculate you before you pass the door, and privately try to please my grandmother and the queen?
…… Recently, He's has been picking on her more and more in private, and the problem of hurting her daughter-in-law's heirs the most has been said several times openly and secretly.
He Shui Jin knew what the reason was - she had been busy with Jiang Yashuang and Qiu Lulan's marriage since the beginning of the year, and one was not optimistic about Jiang Ya Heng, so she asked him to hide Jiaojiao in the golden house outside, and Shui Jin naturally couldn't tolerate it, but she also followed the rules and told the He family first, and asked the He family to decide.
Originally, the He clan was also very angry, called Jiang Yaheng to him and scolded him, and ordered him to immediately send the outer room away, and apologize to He Shuijin.
As a result, Jiang Yaheng didn't say anything, because he was also sincere to He Shuijin, but he was used to following his brothers when he was a child, and he couldn't change his merciless style for a while. In addition, he has always been a little afraid of Heshui Jin, so when this happened, he felt that he couldn't raise his head in front of his wife, so he did all kinds of low-lying ......
When her husband did this, He Shuijin was comforted, but He couldn't get used to it. In the original words of the people around her: "Fourteen saw Shui Jin as if he had no bones, and he didn't know how much he lost by eating Shui Jin in private?" is a noble son of the Jiang Banchao family, but he is afraid that his wife is afraid of this! What a shame for me! I know that there are many ideas for water and gold, but this idea can't be used purely for husbands, right? ”
And when He Shuijin heard these words, he was almost blown up by anger: At the beginning, you couldn't manage the accounts and went back to your mother's house to cry, I, as a niece, gave you advice to help you get out of trouble, and then you took a fancy to me and hired me to your son with a letter of appointment, and I began to worry about making cattle and horses for your Jiang family...... Being a niece and a daughter-in-law, where am I sorry for you?!
I'm still close to my aunt! Mother-in-law who doesn't have an aunt-nephew relationship is not necessarily so difficult to serve!
Therefore, He Shui Jin decisively formulated a confrontation strategy, that is, to disobey the Yang and Yin of the He family, anyway, the He family has to rely on her to take care of the Jiang family, and if she does not make a big mistake, it is impossible to punish her heavily! In private, while pleasing Mrs. Tao's mother and daughter, he enveloped the four rooms...... Prepare to set aside this aunt and truly be the master of your own house!
After all, the general ledger of the Qin State Mansion needs her to take care of it, and she can't leave Beijing, and she can't let her husband go out to avoid conflicts between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"So I can only establish my own power as soon as possible and directly overpower my aunt!" He Shuijin lowered his eyes and covered his eyes, only now I heard the news from the people around He's family, and He's was very dissatisfied with her behavior of sending "incense soul resentment" to Mrs. Tao without telling her, and even planned to personally arrange two beautiful concubines for Jiang Yaheng as a beating and warning.
"Because my grandmother is a step-room, she has rarely interfered with the third and fourth rooms of the Yuan match. No matter how much I please her, I can't expect her to clearly interfere with my aunt's attitude towards me......" He Shuijin narrowed his eyes and looked at Qiu Yulan quietly, "It's the nineteenth brother and sister, the fourth uncle has a special status in the family, and the nineteenth she married is deeply loved by her grandfather...... If I can bring her over for my use, not to mention influencing Nineteen and even the fourth uncle and grandfather through her, just relying on her to fight for Cousin Xin, if it is used just right, it will be enough to solve many of my problems! ”
Thinking of this, she became more and more determined to envelop Qiu Yulan's thoughts, "In short, my aunt is unkind to me, and I am not righteous!" I want to be a cow and a horse, and I want your son to listen to you in everything, and the concubines slap me in the face - how can there be such a good thing in this world?! Back then, your incompetence in managing accounts was your own waste, and you were still reasonable to be jealous of me!! ”
