Chapter 245: Undercurrent (Medium)
Xu's mother chattered, and the theme was to let Eleven Niang take advantage of Qiao Lianfang's pregnancy and couldn't stay in bed to have a room to hold Xu Lingyi's heart, so as not to let the young and beautiful Qiao Lianfang give birth to a son and her status in Xu Lingyi's mind suddenly rise, and take away her right to speak in Xu's mansion, so as to fail to achieve the purpose of protecting Brother Chen's safety and safeguarding Brother Chen's interests.
Since the purpose is there, the process doesn't matter how to achieve it.
Eleven Niang interrupted Mother Xu's words with a smile: "Mother Xu, Brother Xu will be seven years old after opening the Spring Festival, it's time to enlighten." Because he was raised by Mrs. Tai's side, he had already learned fifteen sentences of the "Three Character Classic". will tell the story of Meng's mother's three migrations and Huang Xiangnuan's seat to his younger brother. Brother and brother Gong, Mrs. Tai and Master Hou don't know how much they like it! Even when the second young master told his brother to see it, he had to praise Brother Zhen for his generosity. Mother, don't worry. You are not in good health and need to recuperate. The eldest brother and sister-in-law are worried about the affairs of the family, so you can enjoy a few years of happiness with peace of mind! ”
Mother Xu was stunned.
The eldest lady looked at the self-conscious Eleven Niang, thinking about her heart-wrenching words, her face was flushed with anger, her mouth was crooked, she pounded the bed, and yelled at her.
The atmosphere in the room became a little comical.
The big * don't look good, and they come out to play round.
"Aunt Eleven is a smart person. We're also worried that you can't understand the flowers in the fog. Now that you know it in your heart. We won't talk about the others. As he spoke, he glanced at Mother Xu, then turned his face to Eleven Niang and smiled, "Grandma Eleven hasn't gone to see Fifth Aunt yet, right?" The fifth aunt has eaten well, slept well, and melped a lot these days......" said, standing up, "Why don't I accompany Aunt Eleven to sit with Aunt Five?" ”
Hearing this, Mother Xu hurriedly stepped forward to help the eldest lady wipe her saliva, which was regarded as blocking the eldest lady's angry gaze.
Eleven Niang didn't want to continue to have trouble with the eldest lady about this matter, so she took this opportunity to go down the steps. and the big * grandmother went to the fifth aunt.
On the way, the eldest grandmother whispered: "Don't worry about grandma. You know the nature of the mother. But there is a lot of truth in that. Please also ask your aunt and grandmother to consider it. As he spoke, his tone paused, and he looked at Eleven Niang with some concern, "If you can add a brother, it will be different......"
Eleven Niang didn't want to have sex with the big * milk, so she said perfunctorily: "I understand the kindness of my sister-in-law." It's just that this house is not accepted, and the concubine is not accepted, even if I have the heart, I have to agree with the Hou Ye. As he spoke, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "My mother called me back like this, and forced me to make a statement." How do you ask me to answer? ”
Hearing her say this, it's hard to say anything about the big * milk. smiled: "It's because we didn't think it through!" Speaking of which, after all, this is the Xu family's business, our Luo family is like this, don't say that you are not good at answering, even Hou Ye, I am afraid that I don't like it. He smiled again, "Like your eldest brother, it is most annoying for Brother Xu's uncle to ask him about things in the house......
Eleven Niang responded with a smile, and went to the fifth aunt with the big * milk.
The fifth aunt was doing needlework on the big kang near the window in the inner room, and when she saw the big * grandmother accompanying the eleventh mother in, her face was full of surprise: "When did the eleventh aunt come back?" Why don't you say a word? He hurriedly welcomed them to the kang and sat down, and asked the little maid to pour tea and snacks.
Eleven Niang and the fifth aunt exchanged a few words, and then asked about the fifth aunt's body.
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry." There are outsiders, and the fifth aunt has always had very few words, and her expression is also very restrained.
The big * grandmother thought that she was here, and the two of them were not easy to talk to, so she got up and said goodbye under the pretext that she was going to find the fourth grandmother for something important.
Eleven Niang also wanted to talk to the fifth aunt alone, so she said a few polite words and let the little maid send it out.
The fifth aunt hurriedly took Eleven Niang's hand: "I heard what Coral said." said that your Aunt Qiao is pregnant, and the eldest lady wants you to accept someone in the room. Did you come back this time for this? ”
Knowing so quickly.
I just deny it, and it will spread all over in a few days. It's better to talk to the fifth aunt.
"That's exactly what it's for." Eleven Niang smiled, "However, you don't have to worry. I know this by heart. ”
"How can I not be worried!" The fifth aunt sighed, "You and Hou Ye are halfway husband and wife, and there is neither the 'former poor and the rich', nor the 'three years of mourning'. Kindness is thin. If you don't please the Hou Ye again, how will you live in the future? Seeing Shi Niang reclining on the big pillow again, wearing a maroon mink jacket, lined with a face as white as powder, beautiful and elegant, like a white magnolia that has just been calyxed, I couldn't help but sigh, "It will be good if you are older in two years...... You have to get through these days. Let's listen to the eldest lady and take someone in the house! ”
Eleven Niang didn't expect even the fifth aunt to say such a thing. It can be seen that everyone's understanding of this matter is very consistent.
She smiled and quipped: "Then it's better to directly bring a few concubines in for Hou Ye." Anyway, lice don't itch, and debts don't worry. Regardless of whether he is the east wind overpowering the west wind or the west wind overpowering the east wind, there will always be people who want to surround Wei to save Zhao and fight vertically and horizontally, so I can meet the source left and right, and stand tall in the independent wind! As he spoke, he thought it was funny and laughed.
Who knew that the fifth aunt listened to it but thought seriously for a moment, and said, "This idea is also good." If that's the case, it's a bit like our family. ”
Eleven Niang laughed.
"Aunt Eleven, I'm serious." The fifth aunt saw that she didn't care at all, and said angrily.
Eleven Niang couldn't bear to joke with her, so she sat down and said, "I thought about it carefully when I first got married. Although Hou Ye and I are halfway husband and wife, as long as I don't disobey my elders, divide my siblings, provoke concubines, and talk about my tongue, Hou Ye will give me some dignity no matter what. You can rest assured! It's going to be fine. ”
"Yes!" The fifth aunt muttered, "Master Hou has both children and daughters, you are careful to abide by your duty, he will naturally give you a few faces." We don't want the glory and riches, but just live our lives according to our duty. ”
When you invite your aunt and grandmother to go back to your parents' house, you usually have to report to your aunt's mother-in-law a few days in advance, and if you agree, set a date, and then go back. Of course, this is the general case. If there are special circumstances, parents are sick, and the family suddenly gets old, everything is simple.
Suddenly calling Eleven Niang back like this, anyone will feel strange.
Xu Lingyi was also calm, and didn't ask anything along the way.
Did you already know it from Luo Zhenxing? Or are you not interested in the big lady looking for her own business at all? Or do you pretend to be advanced and wait for yourself to ask questions?
Eleven Niang guessed, and wanted to sit with him like this and go to the lotus without saying anything. But when she thought of Mrs. Tai's earnest advice and concern when she came, she was deflated - when she went back, she couldn't just say to her old man like this, "Mother told me to go back to discuss the matter of collecting the house for Master Hou", right? What's the difference between that and Mrs. Qiao sending an account to Qiao Lian's room?
"Master Hou...... My mother asked me to go back to discuss something with me. ”
"Oh!" Xu Lingyi replied lightly, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows didn't move, as if she was not interested in it at all.
Eleven Niang had no choice but to bite the bullet: "...... Mother said, I'm young and ignorant, let me give Hou Ye a room! ”
In the afternoon of the day when the happy pulse came out in Qiao Lian's room? Then I suddenly remembered that Eleven Niang was still young and was going to give herself a room?
Xu Lingyi looked at the dozen mothers and raised her eyebrows when she heard this: "Say that you are young and ignorant, let you give me a room?" The tone was rather sarcastic.
Suddenly called Shi Niang back, and he knew that there was nothing good.
It's not enough to manage one, but also to manage this...... There's really no time to stop......
"And what do you mean?" Xu Lingyi asked. simply threw the ball to Eleven Niang.
You ask me? I said I don't agree, you don't agree, and I didn't say I agreed in vain.
"I said, I listen to Master Hou!" She kicked the ball back to Xu Lingyi.
"Hmm!" Xu Lingyi nodded, "Got it!" ”
And then there is no follow-up.
That's it!
Eleven Niang was stunned.
Then I felt relieved.
Anyway, I've said everything that needs to be said, as for how to do it...... Since he said "listen to Lord Hou", then it is better to listen to him when the time comes.
Thinking of this, she relaxed and leaned on the big pillow behind her, listening to the sound of the horse's hooves and returning to the lotus.
Xu Lingyi rushed in front of her and spoke: "...... said he wanted to meet Eleven Niang. My mother-in-law has been ill for a long time, and her temper is not very good, and the people in the family dare not disobey her. When it came to us, we hurried away without asking clearly, making a joke. ”
When people are sick, they generally think about the people they miss the most. It's not Brother Zhen, it's Eleven Niang...... Mrs. Tai smiled and pretended to be confused.
"Fortunately, it was a false alarm. Go down and rest, too! ”
The two went back to their yard. Manager Bai immediately rushed over: "Master Hou, the Mr. Xi introduced by King Shun is here!" I've been waiting for you for more than an hour. ”
Xu Lingyi explained to Eleven Niang: "I am asking someone to find a husband for the children." ”
Eleven Niang has something to say to Tao's mother, it's good to combine the two good. Hurriedly smiled and sent Xu Lingyi out.
Tao's mother did not evade: "Madam, I went to tell the eldest lady about this matter." As he spoke, the corners of his eyes turned red, "Madame is young after all, and there are some things that I don't know." I don't know how many I've seen. I couldn't persuade Madame, so I had to ask the eldest lady to come forward to help persuade Madame. As she spoke, her face turned a little pale, "Madam, it's my fault in this matter. But I can swear to heaven that I have no outside heart for you, much less to tell anyone what is in this house......"
I am most afraid that some people will think that they are not wrong, and they will be upright and go all the way to the end.
"Since you call me Madame, then I am the presiding officer of this family!" Eleven Niang's voice was a little embarrassed.
Mother Tao looked at her stunned.
"You are an old man left by the eldest sister, and you have your own position. I don't want to embarrass you, I don't want people to see our Luo Fu's jokes, and I don't want to make Brother Zhen sad. So this time I just want to ask you: Do you want to stay by my side and watch Brother Zhen grow up, marry a wife and have children, and take care of the inner courtyard for him? Or do you want me to send you to Zhuangzi to live with your son? ”
