Chapter 61 Consensus (2)
Mrs. Yu smiled and said, "Madam has always been soft-hearted. This old killer is inevitably lazy and lazy, but she is also your upbringing mother, and when she goes to the house of the young ladies, she is naturally much more expensive than the ordinary girl-in-law, and people flatter her, and dare not let her work harder, which is also the dignity of the lady. ”
Chen took the bird's nest sent by Zhu Hai, scooped it up with a small silver spoon and fed it into his mouth, chewed it slowly and ate half a cup before saying, "Mom, sit down!" You've been around since I was a child, and I don't want to make you shameless. It's just that I asked you to follow Miss Three, you can't help but care, she will be out in the future, you will have a light on your face, you can also have a head, but you are not allowed to hold it up anymore! The third lady is young, and she used to be raised in the countryside, and the girls in the house are not sensible, so you have to help her take care of it. ”
Hua Pozi's attitude was a little more deferential than just now, and she bowed her head: "The slave will not dare in the future, if the third lady goes east." And the slave and maid went with him to the east; If the third lady goes west, the slave and maid will follow her to the west. ”
Chen laughed out loud, wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and smiled at Mrs. Hua and said, "Mother Hua is really ...... when she said this Didn't Yu's mother also say it just now, you are the nurturing mother in my room, but it represents my decency. If you do everything, people will say that the third lady is not sympathetic to you. ”
The flower woman was sweating profusely.
Chen asked again: "How is that girl Meizi?" ”
Hua Pozi finally found something to say: "That girl is stupid and stupid, she doesn't know how to please the third lady, and she can't teach it!" So far, I can only be a dog girl! ”
Chen's eyes flashed slightly: "I know!" Go ahead, and be careful. ”
After Mrs. Hua went, Chen put down the bird's nest in his hand: "This child is really smart." "I learned to play small movements in the back so quickly, if I grow up, I can pay it back?
"Madame, you probably think too much, right?" Mrs. Yu smiled: "No matter how smart a child is, how smart can he be?" When you are not sensible, you will inevitably need to be knocked and reminded by adults. Besides, this child is already a little old, and he already has his own thoughts. Mrs. forgive the slave maid for saying something that does not matter, this stepdaughter and stepmother, it is impossible to be as close as a mother and daughter, as long as she remembers your kindness and your goodness, it is good to know how to repay the kindness. She paused slightly, "What's more, the matter of the fourth miss, whether it is a mistake or a mistake, or a deliberate action, it is really thanks to her." Otherwise, Cai Guodong was soft-hearted, and he might have let go of the second aunt, mother and son.
Chen smiled silently.
The flower woman went out of Chen's house. Only then did I realize that the vest was soaked. If you want to ask her who she is most afraid of, what she is most afraid of is Chen. returned to Ming Fei's house, Ming Fei hadn't slept yet, and with a smile, she asked Jiao Tao to hand her a bowl of hot yam porridge: "Mom, try this." Nourishing the stomach. ”
Jiao Tao said deliberately: "The third lady specially left it for you, mom eat it while it's hot." ”
Mrs. Hua thanked her, picked up the porridge and ate two bites, and listened to Ming Fei say: "Mom should go to my mother's place more when she is free, and talk to Mother Yu more, don't be separated from them just because you come to me, if it is inconvenient to have money, you can tell me, I also have monthly money now, which is much more generous than before." ”
Hua Pozi almost couldn't swallow a mouthful of porridge in her mouth, and looked at Ming Fei with wide eyes, not knowing what Ming Fei wanted to say. Ming Fei had already asked people to fetch hot water and prepare to go to bed.
Early in the morning of the second day, Chen ordered people to prepare six kinds of fruits and He Shou Wu, bird's nest, ginseng and other things, brought their own jade plate and golden hairpin, and the two went to the prefect's house, and went back to their mother's house for lunch before coming back. As soon as he returned to the room, Cai Guodong entered her yard very rarely. He asked her worriedly, "How?" ”
Chen said with a smile: "Sure enough, as expected by the concubine, the eldest aunt's interest is very low, not salty or light, the meaning is unclear, and the words are vague, and she doesn't say that she wants to come, nor does she say that she can't come." The concubine thought that she would definitely not be able to excuse herself when she arrived, so she asked the sister-in-law what she meant, and the sister-in-law did not give the concubine a letter. The concubine thought that if none of them came at that time, the Gong family would definitely think that we were lying. But who knew that Zhi'er happened to be there, so she had to clamoring to come and see the peony dog raised by Ming Fei, and the eldest aunt was allowed at that time. When the time comes, the sister-in-law will definitely come. ”
The son of the Chen family is the eldest grandson of the prefect, called Chen Zhi, who is twelve years old this year, and he is treated like a jewel, and the Chen family easily refuses to disobey his will. Cai Guodong said with a smile: "I also entrusted the blessing of the peony dog, but what if your aunt also follows on a whim at that time?" ”
Chen covered his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled: "The eldest aunt knows best about being a concubine, if it's just a family banquet, it's not necessarily, but if she knows who the concubine has invited, she will definitely refuse to come, unless the Gong family invites three or four times, but is the second lady Gong that kind of person?" If you don't believe me, just wait and see. ”
Cai Guodong said: "How can I know about the affairs between you women, master?" ”
Chen smiled and discussed with him about inviting the nurturing mother from the palace: "I promised to come to our house for two years, and according to the gift money and support given by the eldest aunt's family, it is about six hundred taels of silver per year, although it is a bit expensive." But if you can teach the girls well, it is worth more than anything. When the concubine cleaned up the yard and picked a good day, she went to pick up people. ”
Cai Guodong said: "You look at it, Mingzi has more snacks there, you can't count on her aunt." ”
Chen hurriedly agreed, and sent Cai Guodong out courteously.
Ming Fei asked people to inquire about Chen's nap, so she went to ask for peace: "Mother has worked hard these days, and she only sighs that her daughter is young and can't share her worries for you." ”
Chen's attitude was a little cold, and said, "You are still a child, and you have already helped me a lot if you are optimistic about Mingyu." ”
Although it was not very obvious, Ming Fei could feel the sudden change in Chen's attitude very sensitively. She pretended to be ignorant: "Mother, do you have free time at this time?" "Although she knows that it will make Chen wary, she is not a doll doll, and she should also let Chen know that in addition to having that identity, she can also be of great use.
"I'll make arrangements for tomorrow's feast later. By the way, the two aunts will come, your eldest cousin wants to see Xifu, you remember to let Meizi clean it up in advance, and you will also keep an eye on it when the time comes, don't be rude. Chen deliberately paused, "What's the matter with you?" ”
It doesn't matter if Chen's appearance is bored or not. Ming Fei smiled and leaned over to hug her arm, burying her head and not speaking.
Chen said quietly: "What's the matter?" ”
Ming Fei whispered: "Yesterday's incident between the second aunt and the fourth sister, did my father get angry with me because of this?" ”
Chen Shi was noncommittal, and said instead: "How did you provoke your fourth sister yesterday?" ”
Ming Fei looked at her a little nervously: "My daughter didn't provoke her, my daughter just wanted to have a good relationship with her." ”
Chan smiled silently.
Ming Fei pulled her sleeves uneasily, her face was full of hesitation, and she took a long break before saying, "If my daughter tells the truth, please don't scold my mother." ”
A smile flashed on Chen's face: "It depends on what you have done, if you are very wrong, for your good, you will definitely be scolded." ”
Ming Fei said: "It's nothing to be scolded by you." The daughter is afraid that her father will find out and dislike her daughter even more. ”
Chen laughed: "I promise not to tell him." ”
Ming Fei said in a low voice: "The fourth sister has always looked at me unpleasantly, I think about it, it seems that there is nothing wrong with her after I come back, but I think that as long as I treat her well, she will always be better, but I have never had a chance." Yesterday I listened to my mother's words ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
