Chapter 252 The Good Wife (360 Plus Update)
Ming Fei carefully helped Deng Jiu, who was crying without any strength, and tried hard to force Deng Jiu, who did not attract everyone's attention, out of the teahouse. As soon as he got into the carriage, Deng Jiu covered his face and cried in despair.
Ming Fei sat beside her, there were no words to comfort her, only told the carriage to go around the city slowly, and not to hurry home. Deng Guan's two sons did not fall into the hands of the government, but died at the hands of the enemies who fought over business and had a grudge in the past. The absence of an adult heir means that there is no hope for the Deng family, and Deng Jiu and Shan'er have become lonely and weak in the true sense.
The tree is falling and scattered, even if there are a few loyal people such as Shuangshou to follow the plan, but as time goes by, they also have their own days to live, how much can they manage? Being able to take care of food and clothing and help pull the mountains bigger is already benevolent and righteous.
It wasn't until it was getting dark that Deng Jiu stopped crying. She raised her red and swollen eyes, looked at Ming Fei on the other side, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry for your trouble." Excuse me, let the car go back. ”
Ming Fei lifted the curtain and informed Gong Yuanhe, who had been riding a horse and following outside: "Go home." ”
Gong Yuanhe looked at her inquiringly, Ming Fei shook his head slightly, and Gong Yuanhe let out a long sigh.
Early in the morning of the second day, as soon as Gong Yuanhe and Ming Fei got up, Deng Jiu hugged Shan'er over, saying that she was going to Fuming with Shuangshou to place the ashes of her two nephews, and wanted to ask Ming Fei to take care of Shan'er for her.
Gong Yuanhe frowned and said: "Although it is a big deal, it is not appropriate for you to go at this time, I mean, you should not go, Shuangshou will handle things well." ”
Deng Jiu said stubbornly: "Now that the Deng family is the only one outside, if I don't settle them properly, I won't be able to explain to my eldest brother and sister-in-law in the future." ”
Gong Yuanhe still wanted to stop it, but Ming Fei saw the stubborn look on Deng Jiu's face, and knew that he couldn't stop it, so he pinched his sleeve and said with a smile: "You can go with confidence, I will definitely be optimistic about the mountains." ”
Deng Jiu nodded, touched Shan'er's head and said solemnly: "You and Mother Liu stay here, you have to listen to your uncle and aunt, otherwise I will come back and spank you." ”
Shan'er nodded timidly, lowering his eyes and not daring to cry.
The child is extremely sensitive, Shan'er realized that her aunt was not around, and Ming Fei and Gong Yuanhe were just outsiders who were not very familiar with each other, as if they were so well-behaved, not noisy or noisy, when Ming Fei was dealing with family affairs, she obediently sat with Mrs. Liu, holding toys and playing, as if they did not exist.
The more well-behaved the child, the more endearing it is, and after Ming Fei finished dealing with the housework, he stretched out his hand towards Shan'er: "Do you want to see ants?" ”
Shan'er glanced at Mrs. Liu cautiously, and seeing that Mrs. Liu had no intention of stopping, Fang grinned at Ming Fei and stretched out his hand.
Spring in Shuichengfu comes early, the garden is peachy and willow green, and the sun is shining, which makes people feel much better. Ming Fei led the mountain to find an ant hole under a willow tree, so he played with Bao'er, and found Mrs. Liu to talk to her.
Ming Fei wants to figure out why Deng Jiu is reluctant to marry, which is related to the placement of Deng Jiu in the future. If Deng Jiu can marry and is willing to marry, he will find a good family for Deng Jiu, if he refuses, he will buy a Zhuangzi for her and Shan'er, and Deng Jiu can't be asked to live at home for a lifetime.
Mrs. Liu was still talking and laughing freely before, but after hearing Ming Fei ask about Deng Jiu, a trace of vigilance appeared in her eyes, and although her attitude was respectful, she was a little faint: "The slave maid used to follow her wife to take care of the little boy, and she only followed Miss Jiu to serve after the accident, and Miss Jiu really didn't know much about it." ”
Ming Fei couldn't ask like this, so she had to smile and say, "Mom, you don't have to be nervous." Something like that happened yesterday, my uncle and I were very worried about her, and we wanted to comfort her, but my uncle and her were different from men and women, and some things were difficult to say; As for me, I am not so familiar with her, and I want to say a few words close to her, but I am afraid that she will be disgusted. She was too polite and cautious, and she said yes when she asked anything, and I didn't know if it was true or not, but I was afraid that I wouldn't take good care of it, so I wanted to tell my mother, if the ninth sister and Brother Shan had any needs, just come and tell me. ”
"Grandma is polite." Mrs. Liu responded with a smile, but when she turned around, she frowned heavily.
Jinyun came over and said, "Grandma, the aunt next door is here." ”
Aunt Li had changed into a light spring shirt, and helped a little girl over with a smile, and when she saw the mountain at a glance, she went up and teased her a few times with a smile, and walked forward along the flower path with Ming Fei's hand: "Big * milk, I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace." The good life of the second lady is on the tenth day of the first month, and the lady can't take care of things when she is sick, so I have to ask you to take care of one or two when the time comes. ”
Ming Fei smiled: "It should be." Are you still alive these days? Although she and Gong Yuanhe went over to ask Gong Zhongsu for peace from time to time, Gong Zhongsu's attitude towards them has become much stiffer and indifferent since the winter solstice was confronted by Gong Yuanhe, and she refused to mediate the conflict between Gong Jingqi and Gong Yanbi last time, his attitude became more and more blunt, and he always had a face in front of them. She didn't like to look at his face and mouth, and she hurriedly said goodbye after saying goodbye.
Aunt Li frowned and made an expression that was not easy to elaborate: "It's not the same as before, it's as lively as singing." My lord's hair is gray! I hope that after the second lady leaves the cabinet, she will be quieter. ”
Ming Fei smiled: "Didn't the master say that he wanted to choose a good family for the third sister?" Is there a suitable candidate? ”
Aunt Li said: "Since the New Year, there have been matchmakers who have come to the door, but the master is not satisfied. No, yesterday I was still talking about letting you and your uncle think of a way. ”
This method is not so easy to think about, good people don't look down on Gong Jingqi, and bad Gong Zhongsu can't look down on it, so it's better not to care. Ming Fei asked her: "I don't know how the second sister's wedding dress is embroidered?" ”
Aunt Li couldn't help laughing: "I heard that there is still a sleeve missing." Life has lost weight! In other words, isn't that self-inflicted? Typical harm to others is not good for oneself. is making such a fuss, and you can't ask the third lady to have a little piece of meat, and the master can't punish the third miss for this, don't ask the third miss to marry, what's the point. ”
Ming Fei said: "It's just holding my breath." ”
Aunt Li sighed: "This breath kills people." ”
On the second day, Gong Yuanhe returned home and said to Ming Fei: "The matter of the Zhou family has been decided, and Zhou Tongzhi was sentenced to exile of 2,500 li. You and I will go and have a look, ask them what they mean, when they will go back to their hometown, we can also send them off. ”
Ming Fei hurriedly changed her clothes, and the husband and wife went to Zhou's house together. When they arrived at Zhou's house, the Zhou family had already received the news, Zhou gradually and Qian Xiucai welcomed Gong Yuanhe to the hall to serve tea, Ming Fei entered the inner courtyard, and Zhou Qing's cry was heard from afar.
Mrs. Zhou asked Ming Fei to sit down with red eyes, and said, "This stupid child, who is married, is still like a child, crying like this, which is a joke." ”
Zhou Qing fell on her knee and choked up: "You all went, just leave me alone, tell me what to do?" ”
Mrs. Zhou forced a smile and said, "How are you alone?" Your home is here, you have your in-laws, your husband, and your children in the future. ”
Zhou Qing just messed around: "You guys are gone, what should I do if they bully me?" ”
Mrs. Zhou was stunned when she heard this, and tears rolled out in big drops, Ming Fei saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Zhou Qing up, and said angrily: "You are stupid!" Even if you can't bear your aunt, you shouldn't talk nonsense. Where would their family be willing to bully you? Beware that Qian Xiucai will not spare you when he hears it. ”
Seeing Mrs. Zhou's appearance, Zhou Qing quickly realized that her words were very inappropriate, and hurriedly wiped her tears and smiled: "Mother, that's what I said, in fact, they are very good to me, don't be ...
