Chapter 200: Rumors (Part II)
When the couple arrived at Mrs. Tai's place, they saw that the maids who usually served in the house, including Wei Zi and others, were standing under the eaves, and the courtyard was also quiet and quiet, full of tension and anxiety.
Xu Lingyi's face was slightly gloomy, and he hurriedly walked over. And Wei Zi saw Xu Lingyi and his wife, and also hurried up to greet him: "Master Hou, madam." Mrs. Tai said that she wanted to lie down. She bent her knees to salute the two, "Only Mother Du was left to serve inside." ”
The fifth master is an old man, Mrs. Tai has always been very fond of her, and now that Feng Qing is here, how can she not be sad!
Eleven Niang secretly guessed that Wei Zi had entered the house lightly.
After a while, he came out and said, "Mrs. Tai let Master Hou and Mrs. in." Then he opened the curtain and served the two of them into the house.
Needle drop in the inner chamber can be heard. The bed with nanmu is half-covered. Mrs. Tai took the beaded hairpin and leaned on the big pillow with a small jacket.
"Mother, where are you uncomfortable?" A trace of anxiety flashed in Xu Lingyi's eyes, and he walked in the door.
"It's okay, it's okay." Mrs. Tai smiled slightly, but she couldn't hide her tiredness and fatigue between her eyebrows, "I'm old, I'm not in good spirits, and I want to lie down." ”
The two stepped forward to salute, and Du's mother hurriedly brought the brocade over and served hot tea.
"Do you want to invite Liu Yizheng to come over and have a look?" Xu Lingyi looked at it and understood a little in her heart - when she came in the afternoon, her mother was still in good spirits, and when she said about Feng Qing, she was in good spirits when she went back and came back...... Worried that his mother would be angry with this incident, Xu Sheng said: "Let him prescribe you some prescriptions to regulate qi and channels?" ”
"No need." Mrs. Tai smiled, "I just want to lie down." ”
As soon as the words fell, Wei Zilai said, "The fifth master is here!" ”
Mrs. Tai raised her eyebrows and said, "Tell him, I'm a little uncomfortable." Let him go back first! The tone was light.
It's the depth of love, and the responsibility is keen!
Eleven Niang pondered.
Xu Lingyi has already persuaded: "Mother, Xiao Wu is the most filial, when you say this, I'm afraid he won't sleep well tonight." Just let him come in and say hello to you! ”
Eleven Niang listened and gradually understood why Xu Lingkuan was like this.
Whenever Xu Lingyi was angry, Mrs. Tai would come forward to dissuade her, and whenever Mrs. Tai was angry, Xu Lingyi would come forward to dissuade her...... Not only did it not play a role in teaching, but it boosted the courage of the fifth master. blame him for doing things more and more outrageously.
She couldn't help but sigh softly in her heart, and heard Mrs. Tai smile coldly: "If he remembered me, he wouldn't be so impotent and unchangeable." ”
Xu Lingyi glanced at Du's mother, and continued to persuade her mother: "...... He was young and ignorant. Speaking of which, it's all my bad brother as an older brother. I'll keep a good eye on him later. He should have known the severity of these things......"
Mother Du also knew that Mrs. Tai hated iron but not steel, and she couldn't help it, but now she got Xu Lingyi's instructions, and she was busy going out to invite the fifth master in.
The fifth master was full of surprise when he saw that Du's mother personally helped to open the curtain, and when he walked to the door of the inner room, he heard the words of the fourth brother to persuade his mother, knowing that his brother had told his mother about it, his face was red and white for a while, and he couldn't help but be very ashamed, and he waited for a long time before entering the inner room.
"Mother......" he looked at his mother timidly.
Xu Lingyi hurriedly stopped talking, and greeted his younger brother with a pleasant face: "It's here." ”
The fifth master was flattered, thinking that he had done something wrong, his expression was a little panicked.
Mrs. Tai looked really pitiful, angry and helpless, and her face sank.
"Mother!" The fifth master was scared when he saw it, so he hurriedly stepped forward and knelt in front of the bed, "It's all your fault, it makes you sad and loses the face of the Xu family." Just beat me up! Don't be angry. As he spoke, he stretched out his face and hit Mrs. Tai.
"Beat you......" Mrs. Tai looked at her youngest son's handsome face, and suddenly thought of the word "golden and ruined". couldn't help but smile bitterly, "If I beat you, you can listen to me, I'd rather beat you every day." But if I beat you, will you be able to remember? If I hit you, will you be able to change it? As he spoke, his eyes were slightly moist.
Shi Niang looked at this posture and retreated lightly to the hall.
Mother Du's eyes flashed slightly, and she also exited the inner room.
The two stood still in the hall and couldn't help but smile at each other, but they heard the voice of the third lady outside the door: "Oops! What's going on! All stood in the yard! ”
Mrs. Tai said that she was a little uncomfortable and wanted to lie down. So all the servants of the house withdrew. Wei Zi replied, "Third lady, you stay here, I'll go and say goodbye." As he spoke, he opened the curtain and entered.
Seeing that Eleven Niang and Du's mother were standing in the hall, she was taken aback, and heard Mrs. Tai's voice from the inner room, which was not tall, but could not hide her anger: "...... As the saying goes, eat a ravine, grow a wisdom. When you get good, take the words of your family as the wind in your ears. That Liu Huifang, what did I say at the time. It's better for you to stay away from him, and get mixed up with his sister......"
She immediately turned pale as paper, knowing that she had heard something she shouldn't have heard, and couldn't help but look at Mother Du as if asking for help.
Mother Du hesitated and glanced at Eleven Niang.
If it was someone else, she could not care, but Mother Du was the most powerful person by Mrs. Tai's side. She sighed and entered the inner chamber with a smile.
Mrs. Tai was scolding Xu Lingkuan, who was flushed, when she suddenly saw Eleven Niang come in, stopped the topic, and forcibly said unhappily: "What's the matter?" ”
Eleven Niang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The third sister-in-law is here to greet you!" ”
Mrs. Tai sneered when she listened: "Tell her." I'm not feeling well and don't want to see people. Let her go back first! ”
Eleven Niang knew that Mrs. Tai was not happy at this time, and whoever touched it was unlucky. Hurriedly said "yes" out of the inner room, and then shook his head at Wei Zi.
Wei Zi breathed a sigh of relief and went out to reply to the third lady: "...... Mrs. Tai is already lying down, you and the third young master will come back tomorrow!" ”
The maid in the eleventh mother's house and the little maid with the fifth master were waiting in the courtyard, and the third lady found it when she entered the door, knowing that the people in the fourth and fifth rooms were there, and couldn't help but smile when she heard the words. Said unwillingly: "I don't know what the big deal is, I can't leave the Hou Ye and the fifth master to discuss, and I want to leave the fourth brother and sister behind?" ”
Xu Sijian, who came with his mother, asked with concern: "Where is grandmother uncomfortable?" Can you get a doctor? Does it matter? ”
Wei Zi heard what the third lady said, but he didn't hear it, and replied to Xu Sijian's words wholeheartedly: "It's not a big deal." It's just that I'm old and my spirit is a little weak. The third young master just rest assured, just lie down! ”
Xu Sijian was about to ask again when he heard this, but the third lady had already pulled him: "Your fourth and fifth uncles are serving in the house, and it's not too late for us to come to see your grandmother tomorrow." Then he dragged him away despite Xu Sijian's wishes.
Wei Zi breathed a sigh of relief, but saw Xu Siqin and Xu Siyu coming together.
Mrs. Tai is still missing.
Xu Siqin was very worried, and pulled Wei Zi to ask about Mrs. Tai's situation, but Xu Siyu glanced at the maid and the little maid standing under the eaves, and asked Wei Zi with a smile: "I don't know if the third aunt and third brother are here?" ”
Wei Zi was stunned.
I didn't expect Xu Siyu to ask this.
Xu Siyu hurriedly explained with a smile: "I'm afraid that the third aunt won't know that my grandmother is sick. ”
"The third lady and the third young master have just come."
When Xu Siyu heard this, he said to Xu Siqin: "Then let's go back first." It's not too late to come back to see the old man tomorrow when my grandmother is better. With that, he pulled Xu Siqin and walked out. After leaving Mrs. Tai's courtyard, he asked the maids around him to follow from a distance, and whispered to Xu Siqin: "Didn't you notice that my mother's maid and the fifth uncle's personal servant are standing under the eaves and waiting?" ”
"That's why I'm a little worried." Xu Siqin frowned, "Since the fourth aunt's maid and the fifth master's personal servant are here, the fourth uncle and the fifth uncle must also be there." Even the two elders were shocked, but I was afraid that it was not the 'poor spirits' that Du's mother said......"
Xu Siyu couldn't help laughing when he heard it: "Big brother is too honest!" ”
Xu Siqin raised his eyebrows puzzled.
"Think about it, when my grandmother was fine at lunchtime, why was she suddenly so 'in good spirits' that she couldn't even see her grandchildren? If you think about it again, if you were really sick, Doctor Liu should have come a long time ago, but Du's mother said that only the third aunt and the third brother had come......"
Xu Siqin suddenly realized: "In this way, the tenth ** is the fifth uncle's trouble, so I found the fourth uncle to discuss what to do!" ”
A smile flashed in Xu Siyu's eyes: "You are too slow to react!" ”
"Who is like you, a ghost clever one!" Xu Siqin grinned, "As long as grandmother isn't really sick!" ”
"Who's the Ghost Ghost?" Xu Siyu heard this and shouted, "Let's talk about it, in front of outsiders, you can't talk about me like this." ”
"Isn't there no outsider?" Xu Siqin smiled, "Besides, didn't you change your mother?" I look at the new aunt is not bad. ”
Xu Siyu smiled, didn't follow his words, and asked rhetorically: "Big brother, is the third lady of the Zhongqin Uncle family very peugeot?" I heard that you read "Guan Ju" at home......"
Before his words fell, Xu Siqin had already raised his fist and punched him on the shoulder: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”
Xu Siyu dodged the cat's waist and ran away with a smile: "There is an Yi person, who is on the water side......"
"You still say, you still say......" Xu Siqin chased after him with a flushed face.
At this time, they were just teenagers who were worried about giving new words.
Mrs. Tai lost her temper for a long time, and Xu Lingkuan couldn't help but promise not to do it again in the future, so she gradually restrained her anger: "...... You have to remember your words. To be an honest and trustworthy man is. ”
The fifth master pounded his head like garlic.
Xu Lingyi looked at the situation and came forward to relieve his younger brother: "Mother, it's not early." Let the maids set the meal! If you have anything to say, you will talk about it after eating. ”
Mrs. Tai didn't have this confidence, so she sighed helplessly when she heard this, and said abruptly: "Then let's set the meal!" ”
Mother Du, who was listening to the movement outside, hurriedly went in to serve Mrs. Tai to change her clothes, and Eleven Niang instructed Wei Zi to set the meal.
After eating, Mrs. Tai left Xu Lingyi to speak.
The fifth master and eleven niang hurriedly got up and said goodbye.
Out of Mrs. Tai's door, the fifth master hastily waved his hand to Eleven Niang and left.
After Eleven Niang returned to the house and washed up, the little maid in Mrs. Tai's house came to say: "Master Hou said, I'll be there for Mrs. Tai tonight." Let the lady rest early, no need to wait for the door. ”
Eleven Niang sent the maid a few pennies and went to bed early.
Early the next morning, while combing her hair, a maid came in and said, "The uncle of the bowstring alley is here!" ”
