Wu Niang is talking with Ziwei and Ziyuan. Over there, Mother Xu was replying to the words of the eldest lady.

"Didn't find anything?"

Xu's mother was flushed.

With her personality, it is impossible to leave Shi Niang alone like this. Those soft must have all been handed over to Shi Niang. Otherwise, those two wouldn't have the guts to run. The eldest lady's face was a little gloomy, "You can check it on me again." I don't believe it, she doesn't show any flaws. ”

Mother Xu hurriedly said: "I have already instructed Jin Lian and Yinhua to let the two of them pay more attention." ”

The eldest lady bowed her head slightly, and said, "Listening to Wu Xiaoquan's tone, Brother Sheng will come to Yanjing in the next two days." You can put him in the west wing of the main courtyard for me!" ”

Xu's mother was stunned.

The eldest lady glanced at her and said softly, "I heard that he took the house in the brocade!" ”

let him take care of the house, so that two aunts disappeared and one aunt hanged himself; and accepted the maids around him without the consent of the elders...... The former is incapable, and there is no way to do it; The latter is completely immoral and has a problem with conduct. A virtuous and incompetent son, compared with the uncle, even if he is out of the belly of the eldest wife, he is afraid that he will not like it, let alone born to an aunt who has fallen out of favor!

Mother Xu suddenly realized, and nodded again and again: "Don't worry, the fourth master secretly received the matter of the brocade, and I will definitely make a fuss for the eldest master to know!" ”

The eldest lady nodded and changed the topic: "Wu Niang and Shi Niang married one after the other." We have to weigh this dowry carefully. ”

Mother Xu listened to her thoughts for a while, and said tentatively: "Why don't you give that piece of mountain forest to Miss Five, and that piece of dry land to Miss Ten?" ”

Seeing that Mother Xu fully understood what she meant, a smile flashed in the eldest lady's eyes: "Not bad." That's it! ”

The Luo family's industries are all in the south of the Yangtze River, and the mountains and forests can still collect a few taels of silver, but in the dry land, except for planting some peanuts, nothing can be planted.

"And then there's the money for the box. Wu Niang give more! The eldest lady flashed a trace of tiredness in her expression, "Anyway, she has always been well-behaved and obedient to me. ”

Mother Xu smiled: "I'll tell Miss Five." She is a well-behaved person, and she will definitely inherit this kindness from you. ”

The eldest lady sneered: "I want to impress the eldest master with death, hum......"

Xu's mother didn't dare to answer.

For a moment, the room was silent.

A little maid said through the curtain: "Big lady, big master is back!" ”

The eldest lady glanced at Xu's mother, Xu's mother nodded slightly, and the curtain was opened with a "bang". The eldest man walked in with a calm face.

"When is that son of a son coming?" As he spoke, he sat down across from the eldest lady.

"Just these two days!" The eldest lady said, "I have already instructed Mother Xu to clean up the house." ”

Mother Xu had personally served tea to the eldest man, and then led the servants in the house to retreat.

"Master," the eldest lady sighed, "you have a good cup of tea." Don't be angry. ”

The eldest man took the teacup, and his face softened slightly.

"It's not uncommon for children to do wrong things when they're young." The eldest lady softly persuaded the eldest master, "I'm very worried about the two aunts. They have been in the Luo family for decades, and they have not stepped out of the door, if there is any plan. I really can't think of it. Moreover, no matter how confused Brother Sheng is, there is Wu Xiaoquan at home, and he will definitely arrange for someone to follow him when he goes to the temple fair. In my opinion, I'm afraid that it will be more than lucky. But the fourth aunt chose to die at this time. Yuhang is a small place, so if it spreads, our Luo family is afraid that it will be lost. And it is not good for the reputation of the fourth master. It also coincided with Wu Niang and Shi Niang talking about family affairs. It's really worrying. ”

The eldest lord snorted fiercely when he heard this, and said, "Throw the Yang family to the mass grave for me!" ”

The eldest lady was overjoyed, but her face was sad: "The master is talking nonsense again." How can you throw the fourth aunt into a mass grave! What I mean is that I want to hide this news for the time being, and then give a funeral to the fourth aunt when the fifth and tenth mothers get married. What do you think? ”

The eldest lord hesitated for a moment: "Shi Niang knows?" ”

"I haven't told her yet." The eldest lady said, "You also know that our family has not been able to get more money for marrying a daughter in recent years than before." Whether it is the Maoguo Mansion or the Qian Gongzi, they are all first-class good relatives. After this village, I'm afraid that there will be no more shops......"

The eldest lord listened to the slight twinkle of his mouth, and was about to say something, but the eldest lady had already said: "I know, you think these two family affairs are not very satisfied." But think about it. How old are our two daughters? Besides, the fourth mother in the second room, the daughter-in-law, married 3,000 taels of silver, what happened in the end? The second brother and sister are not both silver and favors, so it is easy to confess a ......."

"Alright, alright." When it comes to Mr. Qian, he has a weak heart, "You just call the shots!" ”

The eldest lady smiled slightly, and a little maid said through the curtain: "Big lady, Sister Yanhong from the Yongping Marquis Mansion is here." ”

Yan Hong is Yuan Niang's personal maid.

The two were stunned, and the curtain was opened with a "swish", and a woman with beautiful eyebrows broke in: "Big lady, hurry, madam, there is something wrong with madam." ”

The eldest lady listened to the "buzzing" of her head, and the person tilted down.

The eldest man turned pale with fright, and while pinching the eldest lady's people, he shouted at the same time: "Quick, go and ask for a doctor!" And he said, "Called the big * milk!" Turning around and blaming Yan Hong, "You can't take a breath and talk again!" ”

Yan Hong couldn't say anything when she looked at this scene, but she thought about the dazzling blood that Yuan Niang spit on the placket of her clothes.

"Mother, as the saying goes, it's good. Godson in front of the hall, godwife by the pillow. But Master Hou didn't tell me anything...... "The pale and thin Yuan Niang was lying quietly on the bed, her clothes and bedding were clean, and she exuded a faint fragrance. Her big eyes were full of tears, "I know that I like Jiang Bai's daughter, but I want to order Jiang Song's daughter...... I don't want to think about it, Jiang Song's daughter is only ten months younger than Brother Zhen. Women are inherently less old than men. When the time comes, won't it be like Brother Zhen's mother......"

Yes, Mrs. kept nodding: "It's all Xiaosi who is not good, I said him, I must say him." The eldest lady held her daughter-in-law's hand, "I'll let him accompany you." ”

The two of them have a quarrel, no, they don't even have a quarrel, so they have to let the husband, who is an important minister of the court, give his wife a confession, if this is spread, won't the name of the fierce woman be ironclad on her head.

Yuan Niang leaned weakly on the pillow and shook her head gently, but a smile bloomed at the corner of her mouth. I don't know if I'm laughing at myself or if I'm laughing at Mrs. Tai.

When I looked at the side again, I saw a pair of black and white soap boots under the screen in front of the bedroom door.

At this time, in this location, who else can there be besides Xu Lingyi.

He stood behind the screen, was he ashamed of himself? Or do you disdain to see yourself?

A trace of ridicule flashed in her eyes, and she said faintly: "Mother, do you remember when I first entered the mansion?" ”

Yuan Niang suddenly said this, and Mrs. Tai couldn't help but be stunned.

"At that time. is still the second sister-in-law. She showed a look of reminiscence, "I heard that the two rabbits in the back garden were fostered at home by the queen mother, so I took the initiative to propose to the second sister-in-law to feed the two rabbits every day." As a result, two rabbits were raised to death. It took a lot of effort for you to find two identical ones to get through. ”

Mrs. Tai heard a smile on her face: "At that time, you were holding the rabbit cage and crying so sadly!" ”

"At that time, I thought that the second sister-in-law is your proud person, and the third sister-in-law is smart and clever and can speak, and I am not as good as them, so I am strong in everything and want to please you." As she spoke, Yuan Niang grabbed Mrs. Tai's hand. "Mother, I really want to be your good daughter-in-law. It's just stupid and always bad at it, don't blame me......"

She saw the boots behind the screen move a few times with some uneasiness.

Listening to these words that seemed to be last words, and then looking at her daughter-in-law's pale and transparent face, Mrs. Tai couldn't help but have a slight wetness in the corners of her eyes: "I have always known that you are filial." Don't talk about it, nourish your spirit. As he spoke, he took the small blue and white porcelain bowl in the tray on the side in his hand.

In a bowl are thinly sliced ginseng.

"Here, take a slice."

Yuan Niang shook her head, Yuan Niang's dark eyes looked at Mrs. Tai fixedly, revealing a sense of sincerity: "Mother, I'm fine, I just want to talk to you." ”

"I also included this before I spoke." Mrs. Tai smiled and coaxed her, and there was a little doting like a child in her tone.

Yuan Niang politely refused: "I'll take it when I can sleep, the effect is better." ”

Mrs. Tai knew her temper, thinking that what she said made sense, and did not force her. sighed softly and handed the bowl to the maid on the side: "Then you remember to sleep with ginseng slices later!" ”

"Hmm!" Yuan Niang nodded obediently.

Since the daughter-in-law said that she had something to say to herself, it was nothing more than something that made her so angry that she vomited blood today. I just took the Geng sticker, and there are still many things to do in the future, and it is impossible to bypass being a mother.

The thought flashed, and Mrs. Tai opened her mouth first: "Yuan Niang, Brother Zhen's matter, it turned out that we were wrong. Although Jiang Song's daughter is only ten months younger than Brother Chen, Jiang Song has no official or position, our family is a meritorious family, and there is a queen mother, if you want to be safe and smooth, you can only act carefully and be low-key and forbearing......

"Mother, I know." Yuan Niang interrupted Mrs. Tai's words with a smile, "You and Master Hou are both knowledgeable people, I know you did this for a reason." I'm just angry, and the lord doesn't discuss with me. As she spoke, she pursed her lips and smiled, "Mother, I didn't mean to say this. I'm afraid I'll close my eyes. I'll never get a chance to talk to you again! ”

The more Yuan Niang doesn't talk to herself, the more it shows that this matter is in her heart.

But in this case, it is not good for Mrs. Tai to insist on talking about this topic.

She had to pretend to be angry and put on a straight face: "Nonsense." Are you still young? Brother Zhen hasn't married a daughter-in-law yet, and I'm still counting on you to give me a pension and send me to the end ......of my life," as he spoke, thinking that his daughter-in-law had just been strong in the past few years, there was a little light in the corner of his eyes.

"I know my own business!" Yuan Niang skimmed the screen out of the corner of her eyes, her voice lowered, and there was a faint sadness, "I am the eldest daughter at home, and my parents are like treasures." Later, when I got married here, you treated me as your own, and Master Hou respected me in everything. There is nothing to regret about a woman being like me. But I can't bear to brother, I can't give up you, I can't ...... Hou Ye ......" said, tears fell down, sobbed a few times, as if he couldn't breathe for a while, and suddenly covered his chest and coughed.
