The third master is back
Xiao Yun came out of the second brother's room. As soon as I got out of the second door, I saw Hongzhu rubbing her hands there, like a headless fly, walking back and forth, and at first glance, I knew that I was in trouble.
When Xiao Yun saw it, she shook her fan and walked forward with square steps, blocking in front of Hongzhu. Hongzhu, who was looking down and thinking about things, almost hit him, the tiger jumped, and seeing that it was the third master, he hurriedly stepped forward and said lightly:
"The third master is fine, I'm scared to death of the slave maid"
"What do you think about so much?"
Hearing the third master's question, Hongzhu's eyes lit up, and he fell to his knees with a thud, and begged:
"The slave begged the third master to save the second grandmother"
When the third master heard that something was wrong with the second sister-in-law, his eyes widened suddenly, and he asked:
"What's the matter, you get up first, speak slowly, and kneel at this gate. Let the minions see it, and think what's wrong. ”
Hongzhu listened, hurriedly thanked him, got up and patted the soil on his body, stood there and said:
"The second grandmother was beaten into the Qingxin Nunnery by the old lady yesterday, early this morning, the second master woke up and told the slave maid to go to the Qingxin Nunnery to see if the second grandmother was used to it there, whether she was wronged, what was missing, what was missing, and she wanted the slave and maid to send it over, but when the slave and maid arrived there, the people on the door were changed by the eldest lady early in the morning, and when she heard that the slave and maid wanted to see the second grandmother, she said that she would not let her in, saying that the eldest lady ordered the second grandmother to meditate in the nunnery, and no outsiders were allowed to disturb."
"What should I do, Qingxin Nunnery is the place where I worship the Buddha, where the specifications are higher than the aunts, but the three meals are vegetarian, the second sister-in-law is indifferent, I think it will soon be adapted, yesterday I heard about the second sister-in-law as soon as I came back, and I also went to the old lady to beg, the old lady said that he just let the second sister-in-law recuperate there for a few days, and has instructed the slaves. Don't wait for it, don't make a fuss about Hongzhu. ”
"What the third master said is reasonable, the slave maid originally thought so, but the master's instructions did not dare to disobey, so he went in person, that knows, it is not like that, look at the mother-in-law's tough posture, the slave and the maid guessed, the second grandmother is not better in it, I am afraid that I can't send a letter, the slave and the maid dare to say two words in front of the third master, people with eyes have seen it in the past two years, the eldest lady hates the second grandmother because of Miss Cousin, and the second grandmother is not a worry-free and soft-hearted person, fortunately with the support of the old lady, and now because of the identity of the concubine, she has fallen out of favor in front of the old lady, how can the eldest lady spare her, although the old lady has words, but the housekeeper is the eldest lady. Secretly treated harshly, who dares not to say it with long eyes, the slave and maid also begged the third master to find a way to take the slave and maid to see, in case she really has a three long and two short in it, not to mention that the master and servant are unbearable, and the slave and maid alone from the second master can't explain"
"You're right, you just want the second brother to pass the word to the old lady in this matter, there are all female dependents in the Qingxin Nunnery, I used to visit the second sister-in-law, but it was always unreasonable, and if it was passed out, it would ruin the reputation of the second sister-in-law."
"What the third master said is reasonable, it's not that the slave doesn't understand the rules, until the last resort, the slave and the maid will not make this decision, the second master woke up yesterday, was forced to take a break from the second grandmother, and now the water and rice have not entered, today I simply don't even take the medicine, this morning's spirit is not as good as yesterday, I can't even sit down, just lie there, looking at the roof in a daze, the second grandmother who is worried about the second master, really told him about this, I'm afraid it's really going to die."
The third master listened to Hongzhu's words, and remembered the second brother's unfocused eyes, and his face was full of dead ashes, how could he be a little angry. It's just a half-dead person, and I think of the eldest lady's mistreatment of their mother and son, with the eldest wife's heart, she can really do this, so she believed in Hongzhu, lowered her head and thought about it and said:
"Let's go, I'll take you to Qingxin Nunnery to have a look."
Qingxin Nunnery was originally a place where birds don't, except for the occasional person who came to worship the Buddha and incense, there was no one again, I didn't expect a second grandmother to live in, it was lively, several in and out in the morning, standing outside the gate, looking at the people who had just been sent away to see the second grandmother, Mrs. Qian complained:
"I was ordered to guard the Qingxin Nunnery early in the morning, I thought it was an easy errand, but I never thought that this morning, I would not be idle for a moment."
The grandmother on the side said:
"If you only worry about snacks, it's just a matter of effort, I'm afraid that if something big happens inside, we won't be able to get out of it."
"What are you afraid of, we just need to listen to the eldest lady's orders and guard the door to prevent people from entering or leaving. Even if there are dead people inside, it has nothing to do with us! ”
"It's really a good thing to say, don't you see that this time not only the porter, the cook, the slave on duty at night, but even the maids and women inside have changed a large number, although the eldest lady didn't say it explicitly, but you see that in this house, there have been so many times in so many years, don't you understand?"
As she spoke, Grandma Sun made a gesture of wiping her neck with her hand, and Mrs. Qian saw it. His face changed, and he was about to speak, when he saw another horse coming from a distance, and stopped in front of him, only to see the third master and Hongzhu coming down from above, without looking at them, they walked directly to the gate, and the two saw that it was the third master, and they secretly complained bitterly, and stepped forward to stop them, Shi Li said:
"The third master is fine, this Qingxin Nunnery is full of female dependents, it is inconvenient for the third master to go in, I don't know what the third master is doing here, the slave will pass you a message"
Glancing at the two mothers-in-law, the third master said coldly:
"I heard that the second sister-in-law was sent here yesterday, so I came to see her"
The third master is a serious master, and they can't afford to provoke it, but the eldest lady gave a death order, and during the days when the second master was recuperating, Qingxin'an was not even allowed to fly out of a fly, let alone outsiders were allowed to visit.
After listening to the words of the third master, the two mothers-in-law were so shocked that their faces changed, and secretly complained bitterly, and said with a smile:
"The third master is the master, and he doesn't dare to stop you if he gives the slave ten dares, but when he comes to this nunnery, all the women who live in this nunnery are women, and it is inconvenient for the third master to go in, not to mention, it is unreasonable for the third master to see the second grandmother alone; Second, the eldest lady has an order to let the slaves guard here, and no one is allowed to enter, the third master really wants to enter, don't be embarrassed for the slaves, and ask the eldest wife. There is a warrant from the eldest lady, and the slave will let you in."
As soon as he heard this, the third master chuckled in his heart, it seems that what Hongzhu said is true, he saw the old lady yesterday, this is definitely not what the old lady meant, the eldest lady has spent so much effort, what does she want to do!
As soon as he thought of this, he had an ominous feeling in his heart, his face darkened, and he said coldly:
"It doesn't make sense! I'm going to look at the etiquette today, and I won't be allowed to see my sister-in-law! ”
After the third master finished speaking, he nodded to Hongzhu, ignoring the mother-in-law on the side, and was about to break through.
When the two mothers-in-law saw it, they hurriedly knelt on the ground with a thud, blocking the way of the third master, and said:
"Third master, the slave is just acting on orders, please don't embarrass the slave!"
When the third master saw it, he frowned, didn't say a word, kicked the mother-in-law away, strode to the door, kicked the door open, walked inside, Hongzhu glared fiercely at the mother-in-law who was lying on her chest and called her mother, and walked in after her.
The two entered the Qingxin Nunnery, and after inquiring, the second grandmother was arranged in the East Meditation Hall, and found a mother-in-law to lead the way, and came directly to the East Meditation Hall, and asked the mother-in-law to go in to pass the word.
Mengxi was reading a book in the house alone, and saw her mother-in-law come in to pass the word, the third master came, and was taken aback, I heard Ouyang Di say a few days ago that the third master was still near the Baicao Garden, please ask her if she wants to give some color, why is this coming back, she stopped for a moment, remembered her current situation, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said, please, while putting down the book, stood up.
The third master and Hongzhu walked in, and looked up to see the second sister-in-law who had not seen her for more than half a year, wearing a plain white narcissus long brocade robe, and a water-pink open gauze coat, with a simple lily bun, and a butterfly hairpin inserted on it at will, which became more and more elegant and refined.
"Second grandma is well"
Seeing the third master standing, Hongzhu stepped forward and asked the second grandmother to say goodbye first, and Mengxi nodded and motioned for her to get up. Slowly stepped forward, bowed to the third master Yingying and said:
"The third master is well"
Seeing the second sister-in-law giving a gift, the third master stretched out his hand and said:
"The second sister-in-law doesn't have to be polite"
"I heard that the third master went to the rivers and lakes to practice, and he wanted to find the trace of the medicine god, and he came back so soon, but there was a gain?"
When the third master heard this, his face flushed slightly, the folding fan in his hand opened and closed, closed and opened, and after a long time, he coughed lightly and said:
"I was admiring the god of medicine and not tycoons, only the kind of heaven can not be restrained, the ground can not be restrained, so I walked all over the mountains to find him, but I asked for a fate to worship under his door, but unfortunately, the medicine god Ping is ethereal, half a year has not heard from me, I wanted to continue to search, more than ten days ago, the second brother sent someone to send a letter to me, saying that there was a change in the family, I wanted to come back quickly, because I thought about the family, I hurried back, I didn't want to be late, the second brother and sister-in-law actually ......."
The following words, the third master didn't say it, the words were stuck there, but the three people in the room understood what he meant, the air condensed for a while, and only heard the sound of cicadas chirping outside the window, for a long time, Mengxi said:
"It's not easy for the third master to come once, don't stand still, come, sit down first, this place is no more shabby than the third master's sunset garden, don't see the third master."
After listening to the words of the second grandmother, Hongzhu also came back to her senses, hurriedly moved a chair for the third master, wiped it with a handkerchief, and waited for the third master to sit down. Mengxi also sat down on another chair, the mother-in-law who went out just now had already brought tea, Hongzhu stepped forward to take it, poured it for the two, and stood beside the second grandmother.
Mengxi originally knew that the third master had been out of the house for half a year and found nothing, he had been wandering around the branch of Yichun Hall and Baicao Garden, Mengxi knew his whereabouts well, looking at this dissolute third master, looking for her everywhere, he was funny, he wanted to make fun of it, so he asked, but he didn't want the topic of the third master to turn to her and the second master, and he didn't know how to speak.
sat down, looked up at the third master, and wanted to ask him when he would come back, and suddenly remembered that the third master had just said that the second master had sent someone to send him a letter more than ten days ago, saying that there had been a change in the family, but the identity of her concubine was revealed four or five days ago, remembering that day the second master asked Xiao Xia to tell her, "Don't worry, everything has his words", his heart trembled, the second master had already expected today's events, did he already know that she was a concubine?
As soon as he thought of this, the hand holding the teacup trembled, took a sip of it, and put the teacup on the table. He asked:
"The third master is here, something?".
