Chapter 154 Persuasion (1)
When Gong Yuanhe woke up rubbing his swollen and aching head. Ming Fei had already freshened up, sat on the side of the bed and waited for him with a handkerchief. He looked at her lazily and smiled: "I drank too much last night, these friends haven't been together for a long time, and I persuaded them to drink a little harder." ”
Ming Fei smiled slightly, and gently put the handkerchief on his forehead: "You have to make friends and drink wine, but you also have to pay attention to your body." Got a headache, didn't you? ”
Gong Yuanhe stretched out his hand to hold the handkerchief and said with a smile: "Did I make trouble with you last night?" ”
Ming Fei got up and went to get his clothes: "I didn't make much fuss." Can I still go to the Yamen? If you can't hold on, will you let people say it and take a half-day off? ”
Gong Yuanhe said: "I am resting today, have you forgotten?" Otherwise, I wouldn't have dared to join them. "He loves to play and make friends, but he has always been very measured and will not delay important things.
Five days off, it is indeed my own negligence. Knowing that Gong Yuanhe would not go to the yamen, Ming Fei was not in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Then do you want to lie down for a while, or get up for breakfast?" We have prepared a side dish of porridge for you to ensure that you are comfortable eating. ”
Gong Yuanhe said: "What do you have to do today?" ”
"My mother asked people to call me, saying that Mingzi was going to get married, and asked me to go back and discuss something. I don't know what the hell is going on. Ming Fei opened the box and took out the IOU and handed it to Gong Yuanhe, "Do you know this person?" ”
Gong Yuanhe pinched the IOU and looked at it for a long time, and smiled slightly: "Where did it come from?" ”
"Aunt Zhu is in a hurry, and wants me to hurry back to help my second sister find a good mother-in-law, and wrap it in wax pills for me."
"Zhu Gang is Aunt Zhu's brother. At that time, one of the stewards of our family fell to his death two years ago when he was drunk. ”
Ming Fei held his cheeks in toothache: "What can a dead man's IOU say?" She really didn't have any sincerity at all. "Even if Second Mrs. Gong conspired with Mr. Bookkeeper to make false accounts and swallow the property of the big house, they can't ask them to pull a dead person to testify, right?
Gong Yuanhe smiled faintly: "Then what do you think, how can she be sincere?" ”
Ming Fei said: "Didn't I show you a booklet?" Every time we did something for her, she tore a few pages of that pamphlet and gave it to us. Otherwise, I'll go and tell her to tear half of it for me first, and then I'll help Yanbi find her mother-in-law's house. If I don't tear it, I won't move. She's in a hurry than we are anyway. "Although it is not very authentic to use Gong Yanbi's marriage to blackmail people, this mother and daughter are not good birds.
Gong Yuanhe said: "Stupid." Aunt Zhu is a typical person who doesn't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, and you don't want to get that booklet until you get things done. What's more, that booklet is nothing. ”
"You don't care about that booklet?" Ming Fei saw some taste, and he didn't care about the attitude of Aunt Zhu's mother and son at all.
"Since they think they have taken our seven inches, let them rejoice first." Gong Yuanhe smiled and put the IOU in his palm, "Eat first, then I'll send you home, and I'll pick you up after dinner." ”
"You're not going with me?" Ming Fei handed him the clothes.
"I still have something to do." Gong Yuanhe got up and took the clothes, and smiled sweetly at her, "Aren't you worried about the removed curtains?" I'll help you get silver. ”
"What are you going to do?" Ming Fei's eyes lit up, and the curtains were piled up for fear of insects and mold, and silk products were the most difficult to preserve. If it can be exchanged for silver, it is naturally the best.
"I know a friend who runs a ready-to-wear shop, and I give it to him to make ready-to-wear clothes, and there are still many people who want it at a low price." Gong Yuanhe pushed Ming Fei to the table and sat down, "Eat quickly." ”
After the meal, Ming Fei talked about Second Mrs. Gong's Bazhen soup and the pile of account books, Gong Yuanhe chuckled: "There is absolutely no problem with the recipe, at most, it is that there are ingredients added to it, or the proportion of medicine has been adjusted, but what about this, as long as she doesn't say it, others will never want to know what is going on." You don't care about this matter, just let them eat dogs, as long as we don't get involved, I don't have a problem with her poking the woman a few times. The account books, it's all in vain, you just pretend to be good, there's no need to eat so much ash. ”
Ming Fei said: "Then what's the matter, I can't ask her to catch any of my mistakes." ”
Gong Yuanhe looked at her serious appearance, gently pinned a few strands of broken hair in her ears for her, and said in a low voice: "I have wronged you." ”
Ming Fei smiled: "It's really boring to talk about this now." Instead of you talking to me about this. It's better to compensate me in action. ”
Gong Yuanhe held her hand in the palm of his hand, lowered his eyes and said, "I will give you what other women want." He said very slowly and seriously, Ming Fei had no doubt about his sincerity at this time, but he didn't know what he wanted in his mind? Identity, status, respect, a prosperous and stable life? Well, well, these are indeed what she wants, especially a rich and stable life, which she needs the most.
Chen wanted to ask Ming Fei to help persuade Hu. Hu wants to reconcile, and he can't wait for a moment. But Mingzi is going to get married soon, and the Chen family is busy going to Dengzhou, how can they tolerate her making trouble at this juncture?
After listening to Chen's words, Ming Fei said, "Then has my mother and the third sister-in-law discussed?" Just ask her to take it slowly, and wait for the fourth sister's family affairs to be done, can't you? If it really doesn't work, my mother might as well visit the old man and lady of the Hu family and ask them to mediate in the middle? ”
Chen let out a rare sigh.
Mrs. Yu said on the side: "Madame went to look for the Hu family early in the morning, and the Hu family has a big temper." Originally, although the third young lady was clamoring to reconcile and leave, she was not so anxious to burn her eyebrows, but the last time the eldest princes went to the capital, she had a fight with the third prince, and then she kept saying that she was sick, and Mrs. Hu came to see her. As soon as the front foot left, she was clamoring for peace with the back foot. This moment is so noisy, it is nothing more than that he is afraid that the old lady will not agree, and he wants to take away all the dowry. refuses to return the dowry, and wants to pay more money. ”
People marry their daughters to enjoy happiness, not to suffer sin. Since this is not his daughter's dish, it is naturally best to plan early and withdraw early. It is unfortunate that Hu married Cai Guangyi, but it is lucky to have such considerate and wise parents and such a pungent temperament. Ming Fei remembered that Han Rong had told her that Cai Guangting had specifically discussed this matter with the Chen family, so she said, "Then how did my mother tell the third sister-in-law?" ”
Chen said: "I refuse to listen to all my good words, and I don't have a clear word. I guess he hated me and deliberately made things difficult for me. In the end, I had no choice but to tell her that this is a big deal, and I can't do it, so I have to write to your father, and wait for your father to decide, which can be regarded as temporarily suppressed. But if she is like that, I am afraid that on the day of Mingzi's marriage, she will suddenly run out and make a fuss, and what she will lose is the face of our Cai family. You are about the same age as her, and she used to like to talk to you, and if you try to persuade her, maybe she will still want to listen to you. "A little bit of Hu's money, she doesn't want to, and uses means to suppress Hu. She didn't want to add another enemy to herself. In a word, no matter what you do or what you do, for Cai Guangyi, it's not worth it!
Mrs. Yu sent Ming Fei to the Yixiu Courtyard where she and Mingyu used to live: "The third young lady has lived here since she was helped out that day, and she will never go back. Be careful, she has a very angry temper, and the fourth lady went to persuade her, but she was angry and left, and she was splashed with a glass of water. The two aunts went to persuade and ate the closed door. ”
"What did Miss Fourth say to her?" Mingfei paused.
Mrs. Yu frowned and said, "Fourth Miss told her." If you keep making trouble, you will lose face if you are abandoned. The third young lady was annoyed at the time, raised her hand and poured her a glass of water, saying that if she divorced her wife, she would hang herself at the door of Cai's house, and she had to tell the neighbors passers-by about the third son. When the two aunts heard about it, they both said that the fourth lady couldn't speak, so she went to the door... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
