Chapter 154: Weathering the Storm Together (I)
Chapter 154: Spending the Storm Together (I)
Mrs. Xue San heard at the beginning that Rong Hua was dealing with the matter of walking water in Yishuang's house, she knew that Rong Hua was young after all, there must be something wrong with doing things, maybe the old lady was not satisfied and would call the hot and cold to say it, the big house was a loss, just felt that the fire was good, I didn't expect the old lady to generously give the Buddha beads on her wrist to Xue Yishuang, and she suddenly felt a little unhappy in her heart, and when she returned to the room, Xing Changyuan's family talked about Xue Yishuang's house again, and Rong Hua locked the maids in Xue Yishuang's house. Said that he would be held accountable. (Niu Wen ~ Net)
After being reminded by Xing Changchang's family, she remembered that there was a big maid in Xue Yishuang's house who was led into the mansion by Xing Changyuan's family. There is no fuel-efficient lamp in this house, and no matter what happens, you can't be careless, otherwise the fire will inevitably burn her. Thinking of this floor, the third lady hurriedly came to the old lady's courtyard.
I didn't expect to meet Rong Hua here with the old lady.
Mrs. Xue San entered the inner room, everyone greeted each other, the old lady smiled and asked Mrs. Xue to sit down, and Rong Hua also sat down and continued to drink tea.
The old lady asked Xue Yu to bring the tea, and said, "This is the tea sent from the Internal Affairs Office, how about you taste it?" ”
Mrs. Xue San couldn't help but warm up when she saw the bright yellow note on the mahogany hollow pattern tea caddy on Xue Yu's hand.
Xue Yu carefully poured out some tea leaves into the celadon bowl, took the tea bowl down and brewed it with boiling hot water, and finally served it to the third wife.
The third lady opened the lid of the tea and smelled it, "This is tribute tea, naturally it is not ordinary, and there is a fragrance when you smell it." ”
The old lady listened to it and joked: "There is no one in this house who knows better than you." ”
The third lady hurriedly humbled herself, "I've seen a lot in the old lady's house." A few people said something on the subject.
The third wife mentioned the matter in Xue Yishuang's house at this time, "The people around me are too negligent, since they want to burn the post, they should close the window, and they have to take care of what wild cats, and there are no others in the house, let Yishuang be alone in the house, let alone Yishuang, even if I see Mars, I will panic, thanks to the hair, it can be born, if there is something else, how can I get it." "People in the house said that Xue Yishuang was writing in the house, but unfortunately he was broken by a wild cat, so he remembered to ask the maid to bring the brazier to burn the useless posts, and when he burned it halfway, he heard the sound of the cat, and the maids looked out, but there were fewer people waiting in the house, and the fire was about to rise, and there was no time to extinguish it.
The old lady said, "Who said it wasn't." ”
The third wife said: "This cat was cold and scared Brother Run before, but I couldn't find it, after all, it is a four-legged beast, and it is not easy to catch it." ”
That's where it comes out.
I heard Xiangyu say outside: "The second wife is here." ”
Rong Hua couldn't help laughing when she sat on the side, and the third wife finally led the topic from the cat to the maid, but she didn't expect the second wife to come. Now it's all here.
Second Mrs. Xue entered the house, not like the third lady who did not speak salty, but lively for a while, "Finally, there is no danger, I went to send some soothing incense to Yishuang just now, and Yishuang has already fallen asleep." Speaking of this, he deliberately glanced at Rong Hua.
Second Mrs. Xue also rarely has such hinted eyes, the second wife's eyes have always revolved around the old lady, and Rong Hua was also ignored when she was present, how could she accept this kind of courtesy today, Rong Hua listened to the second wife's words.
"If you want me to say, this time, no one in the house can escape the involvement, whether it is a family life or a resale of the death deed, it is better to call the tooth wife into the house and take it out."
It doesn't matter if it's a family or a resale of a death deed. That is what it means, but it is not actually meant by that. The real meaning deliberately reminded her to think about how these maids entered the house. Otherwise, the second wife would not have looked at her before saying this.
The words of the second wife were really directed at the third wife.
On weekdays, the second wife and the third wife are still the same enemy, but they really encounter things but they leave no room to blame each other, but they beg themselves to get rid of it.
When the third wife heard this, her face changed and she hurriedly spoke, "The second sister-in-law is right, since this kind of thing has happened, those who should be punished must be punished. ”
When the third wife said this, Rong Hua remembered the maid who jumped into the well in Xue Mingwei's house.
The second wife's eyes really froze.
The two of them pushed back and forth, as if none of this matter had anything to do with them.
The old lady seemed to be tired of watching this kind of drama, and said lightly: "Naturally, the punishment should be punished, but it must also be prioritized, and the people below can't be seen and think that our family is not close to people, so that everyone is in danger." ”
The second wife immediately changed her face and said with a smile: "I just think that there are a lot of young maids in the family, so it is better to take this opportunity to calculate the matching people together." Especially the young master and the young lady in front of them. ”
Rong Hua raised his head to look at the old lady, and the old lady's eyes flashed.
What does the second wife mean by this? Looking at the corners of the second wife's raised eyebrows and slightly sunken lips, she seemed to come prepared. Want to send the old maid out of the house? Xue Mingwei probably has two in his room, right? Is it to purge the people around Xue Mingwei?
In the big family, whether it is the young master or the young lady, before getting married, the people in the house must be settled, the young lady does not say, but she wants to take the personal maid away as a companion girl, and the maid in the young master's room is different.
If the second wife is planning to do so, then Xue Mingwei's family affairs will be settled. I haven't heard of which celebrity the second room has taken a fancy to, so it can only be Miss Chang Ningbo, and the second wife still refuses to give up this family business.
Rong Hua was thinking about it, and the second wife had already taken out the gift, "I met Prince Zhuang in the Ningguo Mansion today, talked to the princess for a while, and came back by car together, the princess knew that the old lady liked delicate objects, so she asked me to bring one back to the old lady, and said that I would come to the old lady another day to say goodbye." ”
As he spoke, he took the thing and showed it to the old lady.
The red brocade box opened, and inside was a seal.
The old lady took the seal and looked at it.
The second wife smiled and said, "It was the seed material that the saint rewarded a few days ago." ”
Rong Hua's eyes jumped, the seed material that the saint rewarded was used to make a seal? The seal originally meant something special, not to mention that it was rewarded by the saint.
The eyes of the three ladies fell on the seal.
The old lady also took the seal in her hand and looked at it carefully.
Now there are two princes who are loud on the throne, one of them is Prince Zhuang, Prince Zhuang is a kind prince, and his voice in the court is also high, he has done several important errands, and he is the prince who is rewarded the most by the saint, but Prince Zhuang's biological mother status is not high and died early, so the prince born by the imperial concubine has achieved another faction.
On one side is Prince Zhuang, and on the other side is the Cai family.
Whether it is a noble, a clan member or an important minister, many have chosen factions, especially recently the saint has mentioned the Cai family as the imperial concubine, but he is also very fond of Prince Zhuang.
Both factions had their own thoughts, and both felt that they were closer to the correct answer in the heart of the Holy One.
Rong Hua raised his head to look at the old lady.
No one in the Xue family was more experienced in this kind of thing than the old lady. This was not the case with the Holy Lord and King Xuan before.
The second wife looked at the old lady's expression carefully, Prince Zhuang's Mansion and Chang Ningbo's Mansion were connected, if she could marry Miss Chang Ningbo, it would be equivalent to having a relationship with Prince Zhuang.
The old lady put the seal back in the box and said with a smile: "It's hard for the princess to still think about me, an old woman." But he said nothing else.
The second wife's face couldn't help but be disappointed.
You can't ignore your conduct and blindly climb your relatives. Rong Hua sat for a while, thinking that the hour was not too early to get up and leave.
Xue Mingrui happened to go back to the house to say hello to the old lady.
The old lady said, "Has your sister gone to see it?" Today thanks to Rong Hua. ”
Rong Hua lowered his head and smiled slightly, and when he raised his head, he met Xue Mingrui's gaze, blushing unconsciously.
Xue Mingrui and Rong Hua came out of the old lady's house and went directly to Mrs. Xue's house, Mrs. Xue briefly said about Xue Yishuang, and when Xue Mingrui saw Xue Yishuang, Mrs. Xue asked the maid to put the food on the table.
I came back from eating in Mrs. Xue's house.
Rong Hua and Xue Mingrui returned to the room and went into the suite to change clothes.
Her plain white fingers were busy, but there was a smile on the corner of her mouth. Thinking about what she experienced today, she can still smile in the evening. She is only sixteen years old, and she is already not allowed to shave her eyebrows.
Xue Mingrui said: "The fifth sister is a thoughtful person, and she doesn't like to talk to people. ”
Rong Hua smiled slightly, raised his head, and his eyes flashed, "This is very similar to the Hou brothers and sisters. ”
His slender eyes flickered.
I wanted to make fun of him.
Unexpectedly, the corners of his mouth curled up with a smile, and he lowered his head and said in her ear: "You dislike me?" ”
Her face turned red suddenly, so that when she came out of the suite, Chunyao and Jinxiu avoided their gaze, Xue Mingrui entered the study, Rong Hua glanced at Chunyao, and Chunyao pursed his lips and smiled.
Chunyao brought a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup to Rong Hua, "The small kitchen made this, it was originally a bowl for the Hou Ye and the young lady, thinking that the young lady had already used it in the old lady's house, so it was better not to eat too much cold food, so I asked them to serve a bowl up, and the rest was cheaper for us." ”
Rong Hua smiled slightly.
Chunyao also pursed his lips and smiled.
Probably because of her words before, Chunyao was not so cautious, and her temperament was a little more relaxed.
Rong Hua wanted to wait for Xue Mingrui to finish processing the official documents and then go to sleep together, maybe he was too tired during the day, he couldn't help but have heavy eyelids while flipping through the book, and he was drowsy, when he suddenly felt a tightness on his waist, and the whole person rose into the air, and before he could panic, he raised his head to meet Xue Mingrui's eyes.
was picked up coldly, her cheeks immediately turned crimson, and she opened her mouth and shouted, "Master Hou......" Before she could say the rest of the words, he had already come out of the small study with his arms, and it was not that he had not hugged her, but he had not noticed that she was so light before.
She buried her face in his chest, as if she was afraid of being seen, but she did not know that as soon as she dozed off, he had already asked the maid in the house to make the bed, leaving the water for grooming to retreat.
Fortunately, there was no one else in the room, Rong Hua looked around cautiously and then breathed a sigh of relief, Xue Mingrui put her on the bed, she hadn't spoken yet, Xue Mingrui had already said: "Eat more in the future, so light." ”
She has always been like this when she got married, and he didn't say it before, why did he suddenly mention it today.
Shouldn't she return her words of dislike him, the big man is so stingy, "Master Hou thinks I'm light?" How much does that weigh? ”
Xue Mingrui seemed to be doing something, "It's lighter than the weight in my heart, much lighter." ”
Rong Hua couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Master Hou is joking with the concubine." ”
Xue Mingrui pursed his lips and smiled. He was telling the truth, and even he didn't understand why he suddenly felt lighter about her.
Seeing that Xue Mingrui had changed his clothes and was not going to go to the small study again, Rong Hua got up to freshen up, "Have you finished reading Master Hou's official documents?" "When she went in just now, she saw a thick stack.
"I'm done."
Isn't it late every day? It's rare to be so early today.
After the two of them finished freshening up and went to bed, Rong Hua still slept inside, so that Xue Mingrui could read by the light outside, but he didn't think that Xue Mingrui blew the lamp and lay down, and stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms.
In fact, she was really tired today, and she just wanted to sleep peacefully.
Rong Hua remembered that the old lady gave her a pair of cards, "The old lady gave me a pair of cards in my house and asked me to repair the burned yard." The old lady said that the location of the yard may not be in line with Yishuang, so she will not let Yishuang live in the future, and simply change the yard, or change it into a flower house, or plant some flowers and plants to build a pavilion, or use it for a yard. ”
Xue Mingrui reached over and clasped her fingers, "What are you going to change?" ”
Rong Hua smiled: "I don't know how to make any atmospheric things, but I have some leisure, it is better to plant some cherry trees around, build a pavilion, put a chessboard in it, and sit in it and play chess when the weather is good." "I thought about how nice it would be to close my eyes and when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, make a cup of tea, play chess, and stretch my feelings.
Although she tried her best to make others think that she was just a lady of Wu Muhou with a small heart, she could also see her casual and leisurely from it.
Xue Mingrui listened to Rong Hua's more and more steady breathing, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, slowly let go of her hand and got up, and carefully folded the quilt on her body, then lit the lamp, put on his shoes and returned to the study.
……
I don't know how to dream that it was raining, and the air was full of damp smells, she stood on the embankment and watched the turbulent water flowing below, and saw the people around her hurriedly running forward, she saw Mrs. Xue, Mrs., Yishuang, and even Jinghua were all surrounded and walked to the front, but she stayed in place in a daze, and finally remembered something, and saw Brother Hong hurriedly calling over in the crowd and asking, "Do you see your brother-in-law?" ”
Brother Hong said: "I saw it, I will protect everyone in the back and go first." ”
Rong Hua suddenly became anxious, and called Xue Mingrui's name loudly, the more he screamed, the more panicked he became, so he suddenly woke up in a hurry, felt the warmth around him, and knew that Xue Mingrui had not left yet.
Rong Hua was just about to move, when he heard Xue Mingrui ask, "Why did you wake up?" ”
Could it be that she can still lie in bed every day, "What time is it?" ”
Xue Mingrui said: "It's time to get up." ”
Rong Hua got up and got dressed, and served Xue Mingrui to put on his inner robe, and then called Jinxiu outside to come in.
When Rong Hua saw Jinxiu, he asked, "Is it raining outside?" ”
Jinxiu knew that Rong Hua was concerned about the rain recently, so he opened the door in the morning and looked, "It rained a little last night, and now it has stopped, but the sky outside is still cloudy." ”
It's always raining lately, but it doesn't seem to be through, the sky is not very clear, but the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the mother-in-law in the house says that there may be more rain.
Rong Hua asked the maid to bring breakfast, turned his head and said to Xue Mingrui: "I forgot to tell the Hou Ye last night, the third grandmother of General Shen's family invited me to the house as a guest, and it seems that the old lady also invited guests over today." ”
Xue Mingrui raised his head, "You go and talk to your grandmother, it shouldn't be in the way." ”
Rong Hua nodded.
After eating, Xue Mingrui put on his official uniform, and turned his head to look at Rong Hua before leaving, "If the weather is bad, don't be outside, come back early." ”
Rong Hua answered and chased to the door, I don't know how she was a little relieved.
Rong Hua went back to the house to dress up a little and went to greet the old lady, as soon as she entered the yard, Mother Li, who was next to the old lady, greeted her, Mother Li's smiling face was tightly tensed, and she stepped forward to salute Rong Hua, "The young lady is here." ”
Rong Hua said: "What about the old lady? ”
Mother Li looked around and went to the west eaves with Rong Hua to talk, "The old lady is a little uncomfortable, I just went to call Huang Imperial Doctor, who often checks the old lady's pulse, to come over." ”
The old lady was fine when she left yesterday, and Rong Hua couldn't help frowning.
Mother Li lowered her voice and said: "Last night, the second master came back, the second lady sent someone over to say that the little master choked on cigarettes and had a cough, the old lady thought about the little master and went over to see, the little master was fine, he took some medicine and fell asleep, but the old lady had a chest ache at night, and it didn't work to mash the medicine she took on weekdays, so she went to ask Huang Imperial Doctor early in the morning." ”
So what happened after the second uncle came back? First, the old lady went to the big house, and when she came back, she developed old symptoms.
Rong Hua already had a number in his heart, and asked Mother Li in a low voice, "Is the old lady awake?" I'll go in and say hello. ”
Mother Li said: "I'm awake, but I haven't gotten up yet, so let's go in."
Rong Hua followed Li's mother into the house and asked Jinxiu to wait outside.
The curtain in the room had not yet opened, and the old lady was wearing a dark purple lace shirt leaning on the pillow, and saw a smile floating on Rong Hua's lips, "It's always you who come early." ”
Mother Li moved to Jinqi and invited Rong Hua to sit.
Rong Hua asked with concern, "Where is the old lady uncomfortable?" ”
The old lady patted Rong Hua with her hand, "Don't worry, it's all an old problem, wait for Imperial Doctor Huang to prescribe a prescription, and take a few doses of medicine." ”
Rong Hua inevitably had to serve tea and water.
The old lady drank the water, "I heard that the Shen Mansion sent you a post yesterday?" ”
Rong Hua nodded, "There is a guest at home, and the old lady is sick again, so I will send someone over to tell the third grandmother in a while, sue me, and invite the third grandmother to come over another day." ”
The old lady's eyes moved, "The Shen family was a family of water control in the previous dynasty, and if you want to go at this time, you must go over." ”
