Chapter 14: Family Affairs (II)
Ask for a pink ticket~
*****************************
Yanhua raised her head, and she couldn't tell whether she was happy or surprised, but the words that followed made her almost faint in a panic.
"Mrs. Hou Ye said, I was reluctant to tell you to be a side room for the Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, but now it seems that with your ingenuity, there may be a good result in the future when you enter the Shangshu Mansion." The eldest lady couldn't help but have a sneering smile on her face, "It is said that the female eldest does not stay, and she stays to settle grievances." ”
Yanhua opened her mouth wide, and it took a long time to react, and she knelt at the feet of the eldest lady, "Mother...... Mother ......"
The eldest lady didn't look at her, ""The Female Commandment" and "Internal Training", you have read these books, you should know that marriage is the order of your parents. Mrs. Hou has already opened her mouth, and I have no choice now. As she spoke, she closed her eyes as if she had fallen asleep, and let Yanhua cry at her feet.
Yanhua's carefully combed hair was already messy, the makeup on her face was even more flowery, and her voice was already crying hoarsely, but she didn't dare to say half a word about not wanting to marry, she only felt that everything was lost, and the whole person fell into the abyss from the clouds.
I didn't expect to fight back and forth, and I would end up being an aunt in the Ministry of Shangshu's Mansion...... I have come to the family before the daughters of my father's colleague's family, and I have talked about the affairs of the Ministry of Officials, and I heard that the aunts of the Ministry of Officials marry the most frequently, no matter what kind of woman they have, they will not be spoiled for a few days, and the wife of the Ministry of Books is from the Shilu family, and they are very means, and in addition to the two sons and one girl in the Ministry of Officials, the other aunts have not given birth to a boy and a half girl.
Yanhua trembled with fear just thinking about it, if she went there, her life would be over. She is willing to be an aunt to her eldest brother-in-law, because she has taken a fancy to the hereditary title of the Hou Yefu, even if she can't raise her wife, her children will have a chance to become a lord, so that her children and grandchildren will be rich forever.
However, she may not even be able to leave her descendants behind.
Thinking of this, the helplessness and fear in Yanhua's heart immersed her whole body, she couldn't care about anything else, threw herself into the arms of the eldest lady, and cried bitterly, "Mother, mother, it's all Yanhua's ghost for a while, I really didn't expect this kind of consequence to do this kind of thing, I just want to leave a good impression on Mrs. Hou, I knew it would be like this, I would never dare, I would never dare!" ”
"Advantech knows that his mother loves Advantech, and his mother ......"
The eldest lady said: "I knew why I had to do it today, if you understood this truth earlier, you wouldn't have done this kind of thing behind my back." Mrs. Hou will say this family business, which also caught me off guard, don't you know that in such a situation, I also have to be controlled by others, and it is not easy to maneuver from it. Speaking of this, the eldest lady's eyes turned red, and she also became sad, "Tell me, when have I not taken you to the heart all these years?" What's the difference with your eldest sister and second sister? I was wholeheartedly devoted to you, but I didn't expect you to have a crooked mind. ”
Yanhua listened to the eldest lady's words, there was room for turning, hurriedly wiped away his tears, and swore solemnly, "Yanhua will never dare to come nonsense in the future, and Yanhua will do whatever his mother says, and he will never dare to be smart again." Only this time, my mother had to help me. ”
The eldest lady sighed, wiped her eyes with her cuffs, and helped up Yanhua in her arms, with a loving look in her eyes again, "I was angry with you, I wanted to find you a good family, but you made an incident at this time, if I had been willing to give you up, I would have promised Mrs. Hou a long time ago, and the sisters in front of you are an example." ”
"I haven't said yes because I really like you in my heart."
Advantech's tears flowed uncontrollably, and his heart was full of remorse at this moment.
"I can only try to see if I can refuse this marriage, but I can't ......"
Yanhua shuddered again, hurriedly raised his head and looked at the eldest lady earnestly.
The eldest lady lovingly smoothed out Yanhua's messy sideburns, "It's really not good, I can only see if there is anyone in the house who can do it for you...... Fortunately, it's not just you in this mansion that you are a young lady who has reached the age of marriage. ”
Yanhua really didn't expect the eldest lady to say such words to defend her, she only felt that her whole heart was suddenly filled with an inexplicable feeling, her eyes were determined, "Mother, you are like this to Yanhua, Yanhua will not dare to forget it for the rest of my life, if I have two more hearts, I will be broken to pieces, and I will not die well." ”
The eldest lady took Yanhua in her arms again, "You child, how can you be a mother to make such a poisonous oath, as long as you are good in the future, I will be at ease." ”
Xiangqiao and Chen's mother were sitting outside, at first it was fine, just gossiping, and then vaguely heard a sentence and a half inside, mixed with the cry of Miss Six, Xiangqiao's heart suddenly beat faster, and she couldn't sit still anymore, but Chen's mother seemed to be fine, sitting on the side and drinking tea slowly, after a while, Xiangqiao was already sweating, Chen's mother coughed indifferently, and Xiangqiao suddenly trembled.
Miss Six's crying gradually became quieter, and Mother Chen said intentionally or unintentionally: "Xiangqiao, you also went out of the eldest lady's room, although it is not as good as spring, summer, autumn, and winter, Mrs. still mentioned you as a second-class girl." ”
Xiangqiao didn't know what to say, so she only responded in a daze, "Yes." ”
"The eldest lady gave you to Miss Six because she loved Miss Six, and it was a blessing for you to follow her."
Chen's mother smiled, "You are not young, you should be sensible." ”
The deep meaning in Chen's mother's words is like a basin of cold water, drenching Xiangqiao from head to toe, Chen's mother is right, the eldest lady is now hurting Miss Six, but ......
The sound of whimpering in the room was heard again.
Change is only a matter of moments.
Before the eldest lady and the sixth lady came out, they heard Chen's mother in the outhouse say loudly, "The second master is here." ”
The eldest lady hurriedly patted Yanhua on the shoulder, "Wipe your face here with me, don't let your brother see it." ”
Yanhua responded, the eldest lady greeted him with a smile, and Xiangqiao hurriedly went into the blue yarn cabinet to serve Yanhua.
When the eldest lady came out, the curtain was lifted, and Brother Hong saw that there were still people in the house, so he couldn't help but look inside, and the eldest lady smiled and said, "It's your sixth sister, I don't know how to wipe my face just now, and I'm cleaning it up." ”
Brother Hong called out coldly, "Sixth sister." ”
Yanhua was already frightened just now, hearing this, his body shook, and he looked at Brother Shanghong's eyes without warning, such a look, Yanhua suddenly remembered that his face was in a mess at the moment, and hurriedly turned his face away, fortunately Brother Hong didn't seem to see anything, Yanhua adjusted his breathing, and said in a low voice, "Hello brother." ”
Brother Hong was still about to speak, but the eldest lady had already come over and took his hand, and asked him with a smile, "What do you remember again?" ”
Brother Hong said: "It's nothing, I just thought that I was going to Zuo Zongxue tomorrow, so I came to ask my mother to see if there was anything else to explain." ”
The eldest lady said: "Tomorrow, when you go to Zuo Zongxue for the first time, your father should have taken you there, who knew that he had an errand out of Beijing today." There should be an elder in the family who came forward, but unfortunately your two uncles are not in Beijing, so I thought about it and had to send a letter to your eldest sister, and let your eldest brother-in-law send you over early tomorrow morning. ”
"Zuo Zongxue is only a disciple of Guixun, you have to be careful in everything, if something happens, report the name of your eldest brother-in-law, those people will naturally give you a few points."
Brother Hong nodded again.
The eldest lady thought about it and was still not at ease, "Also, you should be cautious when making friends, even if you have a similar temper, you must make plans at home." ”
Brother Hong said: "Mother, don't worry! ”
"Don't make trouble in there."
Brother Hong hurriedly said, "My son doesn't dare." ”
The eldest lady smiled with satisfaction, and stretched out her hand to tidy up Brother Hong's clothes, "Although it is good to go to school outside, it is better to be casual at home, you are not small, change your experience." As she spoke, the eldest lady carefully examined the accessories on Brother Hong's waist, especially the sachet embroidered with green bamboo, and the eldest lady took it in her hand and touched it before putting it back.
After talking for a while, Brother Hong left. Advantech also packed up and let Xiangqiao accompany him.
The room was quiet again, and Chen's mother hurriedly brought tea to the eldest lady.
The eldest lady touched the tea bowl for a long time before sighing, "If Yaohua is in good health, why do I have to worry so much." ”
Chen's mother hurriedly said: "Second Miss's body will be well maintained, you can rest assured, and then talk about ......" When she said half a sentence, Chen's mother didn't dare to say it, and Second Miss couldn't mention it more.
"After this experience, I hope Advantech will be a little better."
Mother Chen smiled, "That's natural, you didn't see Miss Six's expression of gratitude to Mrs. Dade." She paused, "It's just Mrs. Hou's side?" "There are only eight young ladies in the house except for the sixth lady, is the eldest lady ready to ...... the eighth lady
"I said it, there's no hurry."
"Yes."
The eldest lady remembered again, "Who recommended the girl next to Miss Eight?" ”
Before Chen's mother could speak, Dong Rui, who came in to serve, had already said, "You said that hibiscus?" I looked like Deacon Cui's family, and Deacon Cui's family was pulling her to bite her ear on the road just now. ”
The eldest lady picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, her eyes were closed lightly, there was no other expression on her face, and it took a long time to glance at Chen's mother, "They are all my people, but she is different from you, and she has been making money in the house all these years." ”
Deacon Cui and his wife were also brought by the eldest lady from her mother's house, her man has been a deacon in the house over the years, and she has become more and more bold, as long as the maid in the house has money to send to her, she has nothing to not take, the third and fourth ladies got married, she made a profit, the eldest lady knew in her heart, but she didn't say anything, it seems that the wife is not ready to indulge her anymore, at this time Chen's mother had to pick herself up as soon as possible, "No, I didn't talk about her behind my back." ”
The eldest lady carefully touched the embossed texture on the teacup, "There are some small things that don't have to worry about her, just to remind her not to lose a big deal because of a small thing, in case something big happens, don't blame me for ignoring the love of these years in the future, so that she will lose face." ”
Chen's mother hurriedly said, "Yes." ”
"What about that girl Hibiscus?"
"Look at the duty, let her be by Miss Eight's side!"
"Yes."
