141 Who Wrote the Letter?
When the old lady returned to the room, the old lady had not yet fallen asleep, and when she saw him come in, the old lady sat up on the edge of the bed and said, "The boss is gone?" ”
The old lady nodded, stuffed a pillow behind her waist, and looked at her face.
The old lady put her hand on the back of his hand and said slowly: "You don't have to be like this, your fate is determined by heaven, and sooner or later I will go before you." ”
The old lady turned her head away, sighed and got up to leave, her back to her. The old lady was silent for a moment and asked, "What did the Yu family do with it?" ”
He lowered his head, still turning his back to her: "I've been locked up in the Buddha hall, and I won't think about it again in this life." In the middle of the feed, I asked the director of the old three families, and the two rooms assisted from the side. ”
The old lady was silent for a long time, then nodded, "That's fine." If she is divorced, there will be chaos in the long house from now on, we owe so much to Meiyin, and if Li'er remarries, it will inevitably be unfair to her. But if she is corrected, how will the three children of the Yu family deal with her? And let the Yu family occupy the position of the lady of the main room, and there will be chaos in this item. ”
She sighed to herself, and said, "She and the Nine Girls just went out of me, and seeing them depend on each other for their lives from now on, my heart is still a little more steady." She is not in good health, with nine girls by her side, life is always better. ”
The old lady nodded, suddenly turned around, walked to the bed and sat down, and said, "Speaking of nine girls, do you know what letter Mr. Guo handed me today?" ”
The old lady frowned and looked at him with a questioning expression. The old lady said with a solemn expression: "It was actually written by the little prince of the Huaining Marquis Mansion!" The letter said that the nine girls of your mansion could not be escorted to the official mansion, because, because he intended to come to the door to propose! ”
"Propose?" The old lady's eyes widened, "With Jiu'er?" ”
The old lady nodded, "Exactly!" I wondered at the time, isn't it rumored everywhere in this mansion that this eldest princess fell in love with Yu'er as her granddaughter-in-law? Why does this little prince want to propose marriage to Jiu'er again? Isn't there a mistake? But I thought about it again, if it was Yu'er who was in the truth. How could Xiao Shizi not hesitate to write this letter against etiquette to stand up for her? At the end, he also told him not to disclose this matter to damage Jiu'er's reputation, let alone let Jiu'er know so as not to cause misunderstandings. Dare to love in the first place, everyone will be wrong! ”
The old lady was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses and said, "You mean to say that you specially wrote this letter to protect her?" She looked ahead in disbelief, as if it was difficult to pull the two men together. One of them is a princely son, and the other is a lowly concubine, what kind of marriage is this? "No wonder the last time Xiao Shizi came to visit me, I also said that he was so polite, and now I want to come. Most of them came to see Jiu'er! But he hadn't seen her before, so how did he come up with such thoughts? ”
The old lady sighed, "I also have a hard time, I think it is mostly because Mr. Guo loves Jiu'er's character deeply, so he intends to pull the strings." ”
The old lady thought about it and thought it was true, "Just now I was worried about the marriage of the nine girls in the future, and I don't know who will be the master for her." Now that this little son has been sent to the door, it is also her blessing - what do you think? ”
The old lady thought for a while, and said in a hum voice: "Let's look at the truth and talk about it." ”
After two days and nights of transition, the impact of the Yu family's collapse finally calmed down a little, but the head of the house mother was newly appointed, and there was inevitably a commotion in various rooms, and those who had once relied on the Yu family began to run around to seek relationships, not to mention, even in the main courtyard was inevitably affected.
She was buried on the mountain the next day, and He Xiu treated her well. spent one hundred and fifty taels of silver to set up a coffin of Nanmu. Although it is an ordinary nanmu material, it is very thick. He also found a blessed land on the south mountain on the outskirts of the city and buried it, and built a tombstone. Nie Shi did not object to this, but instead took two sets of new clothes to wrap in Cui.
Because she had no family children and nephews, Chunxiang temporarily took the place of her filial daughter and kept her spirit for three days. Three days later, he returned to his house. Naturally, I had to arrange a place for her to go again.
Liuli knew that she wanted to go back to the main courtyard, but now there was no vacancy, so after asking her opinion, she temporarily left her by Nie's side. The Nie family is now obedient to Liuliyan, but he keeps a maid, why don't he? immediately promoted her to the second class, and was treated like Kira.
It's just that when I got out, I couldn't help but look embarrassed: "I promised the girl that I did, and the confession in the girl's hand ......"
Liuli smiled: "Fourth lady, don't you believe me?" ”
Nie Shi was speechless for a moment. Seeing her like this, Liuli smiled again and said, "In this way, I still have something to ask you to help with." Rui'er, you've seen her, she's in the house now, and I haven't come up with a name for her to come back to me openly. All you have to do is help me get this thing done, and feel free to ask me for that confession. Now that the fourth lady has assisted in the management of the feed, it must be easy to do this little thing. ”
Nie Shi said at the moment: "A word is a certainty? ”
Liuli nodded: "A word is a certainty." ”
Nie's actions were also fast, and the next day Liuli got up and went to Anxi Hall, and Qian Changsheng's family was waiting for her under the corridor.
Since he was dragged by the Yu family once, Qian Changsheng and his wife were also severely scolded by the old lady, and now that they see Liuli, their waists are bent like shrimp.
"The fourth lady confessed yesterday that she said that Rui'er, who went out next to you, came back to the house two days ago on her order. Now let the little one come and ask the girl, does this person still have to be used? If you have to use it, you can keep it, and if you can't use it, let the little one transfer her to another place, so that the girl won't have to worry about it. ”
Liuli wrinkled her eyebrows and looked at the sky for a while, and said, "I happen to be short of people around me, so let her stay." "It's so logical to pull Rui'er to the bright side.
As for Double Happiness, she was tied up by Laurel for two days, and Liuli remembered that they had said that her whereabouts were suspicious, and she still felt that this person was still strange, so she let her go, and let her take care of her own life like no one else.
Liang saw that there were only four people waiting for her, so he came to ask the old lady if she wanted to add someone to her. Liuli happened to be on the side, so he said, "I don't have much time in the house now, four people are enough." "It's not that I don't want two more people to share some of the burden for Rui'er and them, it takes a lot of effort to sew her clothes, shoes and socks all year round, but who knows who will come in again? Now she doesn't have the heart to care about the maids, so it's better to have the four of them for the time being.
The long house, which has always been regarded as the center of power, has become depressed in the gradually rich autumn mood due to the fall of the Yu family, because the day from criticizing the glass to exposing the Yu family, it was only half a day's work, and it was all carried out in the closed main courtyard, at that time, even the Xie family Ruan family did not know, just like Yuhua, until the Yu family was escorted to the Buddhist hall, they rushed to inspect in shock, but it was obviously late, the old lady had already ordered people to guard strictly, not to say that it was difficult to go in to meet, that is, it was difficult to even say a word.
When He Tingyu's brothers returned to the mansion and heard all this, they were very excited at first, and then when they broke into He Lili's study, they heard that the Yu family had embezzled public money and poisoned the old lady, and they were speechless. Xie Ruan heard that the Yu family didn't want to think of the Buddhist hall in his life, and suddenly quieted down, and he didn't make any noise, but he often walked around the Qi family's Liang family.
Yu was imprisoned in the Buddhist hall, and Aunt Su was temporarily in charge of housekeeping in the long room. There should have been someone to go into the Buddhist hall to wait for Yu's, Aunt Su wanted to call Caiqin to go, but Caiqin refused in every way, Aunt Su couldn't, so she had to call another little maid next to Yu's Cao'er, and transferred Caiqin to Xie's care of Xiao Ruixi, but only three days later, somehow fell into the back garden and drowned. Aunt Su sighed in every way, so she had to call her father and mother to take her back for burial, and gave the pension money as usual.
Liuli felt that Cai Qin's death was very suspicious, and Aunt Su came to the long room on this day, so she asked her: "Cai Qin is not a child, and she will never fall into the lake for no reason." Didn't you do it? ”
Aunt Su shook her head, "Now that the Yu family has fallen, why should I be embarrassed by a maid?" ”
"Who could that be?" Liuli was puzzled.
Aunt Su smiled meaningfully, looked at her and said, "You really can't guess?" ”
Liuli didn't move for a long time, and turned her face away.
Aunt Su sighed: "You wait, there is still a lot of trouble in the long room." ”
When these things were almost taken care of, it was about to be the day of Yanhua's wedding, and Liuli went to the fourth room with the confession she promised to the Nie family in hand.
Yan Hua was already able to move without hindrance, but one face was ruined, leaving two crimson whip marks on the left and right sides of his face, even if it was a long time later, it would leave a mark. Now that the Nie family is afraid that the news of her disfigurement will spread, not only does not let Yan Hua take half a step out of the door, but also tells everyone in the house that this is the marriage of the saint, as long as it is delayed until the day of marriage, it will be up to Uncle Feng to make a fuss.
Although she has never gone out, Yanhua has been hearing about Liuli all day long, even if she doesn't ask, the people around her will talk about it. So when she saw her coming, she lowered her face and said, "You are beautiful now, what are you doing here with me?" See the joke?! Don't think that you are so great if you turn over now, when I become a relative, I will be Mrs. Fengyuanbo, and I will have to make a big gift when you see me! ”
Liuli smiled: "Naturally, you are not Mrs. Fengyuanbo, and I have to make a big salute when I see you." Who are you? You are a serious girl from Hefu. ”
Yan Hua snorted and turned his head to ignore her.
Liuli came today to take care of He Xiuyuan's face, and she didn't necessarily want to deal with her, so she also turned around and went to talk to Shuhua Huanhua. Huanhua looked around and said, "The third sister and the seventh sister didn't come?" Shuhua glanced at her, as if intentionally and unintentionally, and said: "On the day the eldest aunt entered the Buddhist hall, your third sister rushed into Aunt Su's place and made a big fuss, even Aunt Chen and your seventh sister were not spared, and Su'er was recuperating in the house for the past two days." Your third sister has been crying outside the Buddha hall for the past few days, and I am afraid that this will pass again. ”
