Chapter 209: The Second Master Wakes Up

The eldest aunt was afraid that the second grandmother would be confused by the old lady's words. Luckily, I thought I couldn't get out of the hall, and in the end I was caught off guard by the old lady, so I persuaded him kindly on the side, and mentioned the things of the eldest lord back then, but I didn't notice that when Mengxi heard her mention that Aunt Zhang was the eldest master's childhood sweetheart, the hand that was taking the needle out trembled.

This reminded Mengxi of the poisoning of the second master two years ago, she must have done it by Aunt Zhang, but Mengxi never regarded herself as the Xiao family, so in the past two years, she didn't have the heart to seek justice for the second master, Aunt Zhang was also aware of her, and the two fought a few times openly and secretly, until Aunt Zhang was too scared, so she gave up.

Now I heard that she was the eldest master's childhood sweetheart, look at the two people who once loved and died, and remembered that they used to be able to stay together, and they didn't care about the love of their name, but they were finally swallowed up by this ruthless time, distorted by this inhumane deep house, and in the end, they wanted to assassinate their lover's child with their own hands! I didn't feel disheartened for a while.

This kind of family is deep in the house. The most intolerable thing is "true love", raising his eyes to look at the sleeping second master, knowing that it was a bad fate, but he used his true feelings, and he lost his mind for a while.

"Second Grandma ......"

The eldest aunt's voice seemed to come from a distant place, pulling back the thoughts of Mengxi drifting away, and glanced at the eldest aunt, only to see that she was still talking, retracting her mind, while methodically taking the silver needle, while listening to the eldest aunt say:

“…… Second grandmother, the concubine also knows that the old lady loves you the most in the day, it is said that the concubine should not say this, but the concubine really can't see you suffer, the concubine has lived in the house longer than you, and some things have been seen through, the second grandmother, don't look at the old lady's kindness and kindness on weekdays, and really do things, but unambiguously, the old lady's killing is decisive, and no one can compare to this Xiao Mansion. ”

The eldest aunt stopped talking about this, looked at the second grandmother, and saw that she was still doing what she was doing wholeheartedly, as if she didn't understand what she meant. Secretly sighed, finally. As if he had made a lot of determination, he looked at the second grandmother and said:

"The second grandmother has been in the house for two years, and the concubine has never seen your mother's family come, and the second grandmother is not pleasing in her mother's house, the concubine's father and brother are all petty officials in Qingzhou, and the mother is also very loving, if the second grandmother has something, the concubine will give the mother a letter of resignation, and she will be able to take care of you, but the second grandmother must not dislike the concubine's mother's poor house."

The eldest aunt's words have been said to the bottom of her heart, since the last time the second grandmother saved her two daughters, she has been interested in the second grandmother, two years later, the second grandmother also regarded her as a relative, never treated her as a slave, treated her harshly, two people who were rivals in love, because they both died to that man, but also established a deep sisterhood.

Seeing the second grandmother is difficult today, although the eldest aunt knows that it is not in accordance with the etiquette law, she knows that in this era. A woman loses the favor of her mother-in-law and her mother's family, how bleak the result will be, she is really afraid of this arrogant second grandmother, just to take a breath, and finally freeze to death on the street.

Although Lao Taijun said in front of everyone that day that Mengxi was still the daughter-in-law of her Xiao family, she had already seen the decisiveness in Lao Taijun's eyes, and it was only a matter of time before the second grandmother went to court. After thinking about it for two nights, I finally couldn't resist the worry about the future fate of the second grandmother in my heart, and extended a helping hand.

The words of the eldest aunt, if they are heard by someone with a heart and spread to the eldest lady, I don't know how many rights and wrongs will be born, listening to her heart-wrenching words, Mengxi couldn't help but have a sour nose, and fell into tears, suppressed the sourness in her heart, and said indifferently:

"Some words, have been said, they have been said, don't mention them again in the future, the eldest aunt has been in the house for the longest time, and naturally knows that the rules in this house are big, and you can't make any mistakes, these words, the eldest aunt will be rotten in the stomach in the future, don't say it again"

The eldest aunt listened to the words of the second grandmother, and knew that it was for her own good, and she didn't want her to be implicated. Thinking that the second grandmother was difficult to protect herself, and she was still thinking about her, her nose was sore, two lines of hot tears rolled down, and she said with a little choked up:

"Second Grandma ......"

"Chun'er is 7 years old this year, although women are not talented is virtuous, but people like us, female red is to learn, that homework also has to learn some good, there will always be a foothold in the future, marry into the husband's family, will not let people underestimate it, I used to teach her, she fell in love with her sister, and she didn't go to the school, and the aunt still let her go to the school to study some books, it's always good, it's really not possible, the aunt begged the second master to find a female gentleman to come back and teach the two girls."

Seeing that the eldest aunt was going to continue, Mengxi hurriedly intercepted her words and mentioned her daughter's matter, which was also the only thing she was worried about when she left the house, and Xiao Jun's three daughters were close to her. Especially Chun'er and Feng'er, they often lie in the east chamber to listen to her stories, and then sleep on her bed, which makes Mengxi, who has never really been a mother in two lifetimes, full of tenderness. I wanted to talk to my aunt about it, but now it was an opportunity, so I said it.

When the eldest aunt heard this, she tested her eyes with a handkerchief, and said:

"The concubine has been thinking about this for the past two days, I want to hear your thoughts, the second grandmother said today, the concubine listens to you."

Looking at this aunt who treats herself like a sister. Mengxi sighed and said:

"The eldest aunt is still young, don't look at everything so lightly, you might as well fight for the things that should be argued, the eldest aunt has two daughters, which no one can take away, although the second master is a little weaker, but the person is not bad, the eldest aunt has served well, and the second master will not treat you ladies badly in the future."

"What the second grandmother said is, it's just that this person's heart is dead, and there is nothing to desire, Chun'er and Feng'er have a lot of disasters and difficulties, if it weren't for the second grandmother, the two children would have been gone a long time ago, I'm afraid that I will be like the second aunt, so I will go"

When the eldest aunt said this, she paused, raised her eyes to look at the second grandmother, and continued:

"Since the accident of the two daughters, in order to pray for the blessing of the daughter, the concubine often takes care of some Buddhist things, and then I also realized that everything in the world, such as the prosperous Xiao Mansion, and for example, all kinds of people in this house, are all hue illusions, on its original, are empty, only because the world has seven emotions and six desires, it will be colored in the air, making people lose their nature, if it is not for the two daughters to tie up, the concubine really wants to cut off the three thousand troubles, take refuge in Buddhism, and also accumulate more virtue for Chun'er and Feng'er, and reduce some evil obstacles."

Listening to the words of the eldest aunt, Mengxi felt sad in her heart. He snorted, but said nothing. A good person would have such an idea, the eldest aunt is only 24 years old, in her previous life, it was the age of love and the pursuit of happiness.

But he was born in this ancient period when men were inferior to women, and she became a lowly aunt early, and she lost her husband's favor early, and persuaded her to turn back, what can she do, but she can't escape the loneliness of the second half of her life, thinking of this, Mengxi didn't persuade her to look at it anymore, and only put the silver needles taken out one by one in the box.

The air in the room was unusually dull, and Zhixia also closed his mouth tightly on the side, looking at the eldest aunt with sympathy. After a long time, the eldest aunt's voice seemed to come from a hollow, fluctuating, and unreal:

"I can't let go of my daughter, I can't let go of my second grandmother, the dust is not over, I can't cut this trouble, and I can't cross the iron threshold, and I will end up being a layman......."

sighed, the eldest aunt got up and said goodbye and left, Mengxi called Hongzhu in, and Zhixia together, fed the second master medicine, although the doctor also prescribed medicine that day, but Mengxi only glanced at it, and put it aside, she has been using her medicine for the past two days, only let Hongzhu and Zhixia feed it every day, and do not let the little maid see it, Hongzhu saw that this medicine worked, and it was up to her.

Watching the two of them finish feeding the medicine and clean up, Mengxi opened the medicine cloth on Xiao Jun's right hand again, checked the wound of the second master, and saw that the erosion was already a little red, as if it was about to grow new meat, and there was a tendency to gradually heal, so it was cleaned again and bandaged with medicine.

Looking at the second master's face, the bruises from the beating have not completely receded, but they have returned to normal, and they will not burn this morning, listening to the second master's steady breathing, he secretly said: He should also wake up.

Thinking of this, he called Hongzhu, explained all the medicines that the second master had used and taken in the past two days, and finally said:

"The second master's fever has subsided, and it should be awake after a while, and I ordered someone to make some porridge and send it over, the second master is awake and easy to use, the second master is awake, so I will go to the old lady to pass the word, I will go back to the East Chamber first, and then if there is anything, send a girl to the East Chamber to spread a word."

Hongzhu was stunned when she heard that the second grandmother was going back to the East Chamber, and everyone who was serving in the house in the past two days knew that the second master was unconscious and kept talking nonsense, calling the name of the second grandmother, and she was so shocked that she didn't dare to let the little maid in, only she and Hongxing were waiting in the house.

I also know with my knees that the first time the second master woke up, the person who was most eager to see was the second grandmother, but this unconscious second grandmother, who had been serving for two days without undressing, should show her merits, but she had to dodge, so difficult that she didn't want to leave a good thought in front of the second master at all, at least the second master could help her fight, and maybe she really fought for the old lady.

Since the second grandmother is a concubine was revealed, the maids and mothers-in-law in Xiao Xiang's courtyard have been secretive about this matter, and they have been carefully serving every day, for fear that they will be jealous if they leak their mouths, and even Hongzhu and the second grandmother are not as natural as before, she can't guess the second grandmother's thoughts, and of course she doesn't dare to talk nonsense, but at this time, seeing that the second grandmother is leaving, she mustered up the courage to persuade:

"The second grandmother is tired, the slave maid will wait for you to rest for a while, the second master will wake up soon, the slave and the maid think, the second master will see the first time after waking up, I must want to see ......"

Hongzhu, who was talking, was so frightened by the majestic gaze of the second grandmother that she swallowed back the words behind her, snorted for a while, and didn't make a sound, looking at the second grandmother nervously.

Seeing that Hongzhu didn't say anything, Mengxi retracted his gaze, pointed to the last bottle of medicine and said:

"This bottle of medicine was just bought from Yichun Hall, saying that it can invigorate blood without leaving scars, Hongzhu wants to change the medicine for the second master's hand on time"

After Mengxi finished speaking, he ignored Hongzhu and helped Zhixia out.

"The slave maid obeys the instructions of the second grandmother, and the slave and maid send the second grandmother"

Hongzhu chased after the second grandmother and said.

The second master opened his eyes, he didn't know where he was in a daze, he remembered that he was punished by his father for bumping into his grandmother and father, he knelt down, looked around, and found that it was his bedroom, thinking that he fainted and was sent back, he remembered that Xi'er went to see him before he passed out, thought of Xi'er, and suddenly remembered something, stretched out his hand as if he was in his arms, there was nothing, his heart was shocked, and he struggled to sit up.
