Chapter 125: Soup Kitchen (Part II)
Mrs. Huang took the ginseng back to the side courtyard where she lived, and looked at her son's yellow face in the dim light, and she couldn't help but sigh long.
Huang Laohan on the side couldn't help but whisper: "What? There is no ginseng for Chen Xu's daughter-in-law? ”
Mrs. Huang shook her head and took out the ginseng given by the evening fragrance from her arms: "I'm afraid I won't be able to get it in the future!" ”
Huang Laohan hurriedly said: "What's wrong?" ”
"It's fine." Mrs. Huang's expression was a little bitter, "After taking so many things from her, it's time to repay the debt!" ”
Huang Laohan listened with horror: "How can you return the law?" As he spoke, he looked at the house with four walls, "Everything that should be sold has been sold, what shall we pay back?" ”
Mrs. Huang didn't make a sound, but just told her husband: "You put this away." I use it delicately, and I can top it for a year, too. A year later, who can say clearly! There was a bit of spirit in his voice.
Early the next morning, the people who went to the soup kitchen were re-arranged.
"You know how to please the people of the inner court." A daughter-in-law was not convinced, "The people in the inner courtyard of the house go to give porridge, and there is a subsidy of 30 wen every day, we are good, work in vain!" ”
Mrs. Huang was stunned when she heard this: "Who said that?" ”
Mrs. Tai personally nodded in agreement. The daughter-in-law brushed her sideburns, "You also know that our aunt's sister-in-law works on an errand in Mrs. Tai's yard, and this is what our aunt and grandmother said personally." ”
When the others heard this, they all exploded.
"Everyone is the same errand, why don't we have those thirty when they have thirty?"
"Yes, yes. Every year. When the mothers in each house have finished showing off their porridge shacks, it's time for us to go to the soup kitchen. Don't look at how big the snow is this year! ”
Seeing that the scene was a little chaotic, Mrs. Huang glanced at her two daughters-in-law who were usually good with her, and one of them immediately shouted, "Okay, okay." What's the use of all of that. Whoever makes us from the outer court is no more noble than the inner court. I have the ability to ask someone to transfer me to the inner courtyard! What's the use of saying all of this here? ”
All of a sudden, the voices of others were silenced.
Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Mrs. Huang smiled and said, "I don't want to either." But there's no way around it. If you want to blame, it's only because I, the leader, are incompetent. As he spoke, he sighed helplessly, "If everyone has a high branch, I won't block it." ”
Daughters-in-law, you look at me, I look at you, and you are silent.
"Alright, alright. Let's get busy! The daughter-in-law who was good with Mrs. Huang came forward to solve the siege, and everyone dispersed in amazement.
Mrs. Huang glanced at the two daughters-in-law, and the three of them went to the patio behind the kitchen one after the other.
"You two are going to give soup too." Mrs. Huang's voice was a little low, "Let's see if there are any flaws?" ”
The two daughters-in-law were startled and exchanged glances.
"Sister Huang, this, this is not very good...... one of them hesitated, "Even if something happens, we can't please it." ”
"yes!" The other laughed, "We don't care, where is not an errand." My sister is different. The steward who finally managed to get to the kitchen in this outer courtyard also has a head and a face in the house. I can't stand up for this......"
Mrs. Huang didn't know. But if there had been a second way, she wouldn't have taken the evening scent's things...... What's the use of talking about all of this now!
She had no choice but to go all the way to the end. Pointing to the east, he whispered, "I'm also acting on orders." Everyone just does the work, and the rest is left alone. Even if something happens, it won't be our turn to carry the black pot. What's more, flies don't stare at seamless eggs. If it's clean, who can do anything to whom? ”
The daughter-in-law couldn't help but smile when she covered her mouth: "This kind of thing, how can there be a clean time." I think back then, the original Mrs. Hou was in charge, and she also took brown rice for polished rice. What's more, the third lady is in charge? ”
Mrs. Huang laughed: "That's it." We're just telling the truth. ”
The daughter-in-law nodded: "Don't worry." Something will come to you. ”
Mrs. Huang was relieved.
In the evening, the daughter-in-law took advantage of the darkness to touch the Huang Pozi's house.
"It's not brown rice, it's moldy rice."
Mrs. Huang was overjoyed.
"You can see clearly!"
"Clearly." The daughter-in-law whispered, "The top is polished rice, and the bottom is moldy rice." At first glance, it is a manipulation. ”
"How much?"
"There are more than thirty bags."
Mrs. Huang thought for a while: "Don't be silent for the time being." Since it is a heart, there must be a backhand. Wait until they can't change it if they want to. ”
The daughter-in-law understood, and the two discussed a few words in a low voice before dispersing.
A few days later, the evening fragrance incident happened - she was late for the food, and the rooms had hot dishes and hot meals before the beginning.
Mrs. Tai glanced at the third lady deeply and said nothing.
With so many people in the family, there must be contradictions, but to this extent...... As a housekeeper, the third lady, although she can't talk about losing face, her ability to run the house is deeply doubted. She still could stand, and her face turned red and white and went to the kitchen.
In the distance, I heard the howl of the evening incense: "...... It's just bullying me that no one is around, thinking about my errand...... I went to the hut and the food delivery person left...... I have wronged me like this...... I'm not alive anymore! I have the ability to confront Mrs. Tai, I'm not a soft persimmon, you can pinch it as much as you want......"
Gan Laoquan had already found a few daughters-in-law and waited for the third lady to come, ready to talk about the evening fragrance. When they saw the three ladies, they all greeted them courteously.
The third lady paused, turned around and went to Eleven Niang: "...... Someone has to do the errands at home, and if you don't need her, you have to use someone else. What's more, she has always done a good job. But horses stumble, and people stumble. She refused to admit her mistake like this, and shouted that she wanted to confront Mrs. Tai. What the hell is going on, there are a lot of daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law in the kitchen, and it's not that I don't understand. But if you make such a fuss, even if I am a housekeeper, even if I have no face, she is what your eldest sister is used to, and she has no glory. I also asked the fourth brother and sister to persuade her. The tone was a little stiff, a bit threatening.
Eleven Niang was a little surprised.
Wanxiang is the old man in the house, this is a lose-lose method, she should know very well......
"The third sister-in-law didn't say it, I didn't know there was such a thing." She smiled, "However, don't worry, the third sister-in-law. What the hell is going on, there are a lot of daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law in the kitchen, it's not that I can't understand it. I'm going to call someone to call her and ask her! ”
The third lady listened to what she said, soft and firm, her face changed slightly, and she got up coldly: "Then please ask the fourth brother and sister to ask more!" ”
Eleven Niang sent her out with a smile and asked Amber to call the evening fragrance.
Holly wanted to avoid the fifth lady, afraid of getting into trouble, so she didn't go anywhere, and did needlework in front of Eleven Niang every day. Seeing Amber go to call Wanxiang, he couldn't help but persuade in a low voice: "Madam, Wanxiang has always been rampant in the house, and everyone knows it." You can't be unhappy for her and the third lady......"
Shi Niang shook her head: "She wants to be in charge of the house, the longer the better." But Mrs. Tai may not think so...... Unless it's like this forever, it's useless how careful I am in front of her. Since the contradictions between the two are inevitable, they always have to be offended. It's the same when you offend! ”
Holly heard that what she said made sense, and nodded again and again.
Eleven Niang said curiously: "It stands to reason that Wanxiang is not such a reckless talent, how can he make such a mistake of not being able to pick chopsticks!" ”
Holly thought for a moment and smiled, "The tiger still has time to nap." Who's the hand, perhaps? ”
Eleven Niang thinks this is also possible.
As soon as Wanxiang arrived, he asked her directly: "This is not like your mistake?" He actually laughed at what a evening fragrance said: "The fourth lady is really sharp-eyed." He glanced at Holly, who was serving.
Eleven Niang looked like this and had something to say, so she sent her to serve around her.
Wan Xiang immediately took a few steps forward and whispered in Eleven Niang's ear: "Madam, I have found something to bring down the third lady." ”
Shi Niang was shocked when she heard this, and she didn't know why, so she thought of the soup kitchen......
"You have to have a solid basis for what you say." She looked at Wanxiang quietly, "Falsely accusing the master, it's not a matter that can be passed with a few boards!" ”
"Madame, don't worry, who is my evening fragrance, how can I do that thing of chasing the wind and shadows." Wan Xiang smiled coldly, "The third lady has already saved her mind and wants to get a handful of rice from the soup kitchen. At first, it was just a mixed bag, but then when I didn't find it, I changed it all to brown rice. In the past few days, all the rice has been transported. Now there is a seven-to-eight-day pile of food in the porridge shed. You brought someone to see it at this time, and I kept everyone with the stolen goods. She just wanted to say something that she couldn't say if she was overlooked. There was a cold light in her eyes, "She wants to kill all of us without shedding her skin, and there is no door!" ”
Eleven Niang looked at the resentment in her eyes, and was even more shocked by the behavior of the third lady.
"Mildew? You can see clearly! ”
She had also guessed that the third lady would take a handful of this and replace the good rice with brown rice, but she didn't expect to use moldy rice...... In her impression, moldy rice eats the dead!
Seeing that she didn't seem to believe it, Wanxiang swore a curse: "If I talk nonsense, I won't die a good death!" ”
Eleven Niang gasped, only to feel that the vest was cold.
Wanxiang was originally taking the dangerous chess of life and death, if she was not very sure, how could she have such courage!
Ten of the ** is true!
"Who else knows about this?" Eleven Niang's gaze deepened.
Wanxiang whispered: "Everyone who gives porridge knows. I am the only one who knows about the inner court. As she spoke, her eyes flashed, "Madam, without further ado." You still reported to the Hou Ye early and exposed the tricks of the third lady, making her greatly embarrassed. You can take over the power of the house smoothly! ”
Eleven Niang looked at her with a faintly excited expression on her face, and suddenly understood.
Evening incense, what a good means!
She is the person left by Yuan Niang, and she occupies such an errand as the kitchen in the inner courtyard, and the third lady will definitely not be able to tolerate her. She simply made the first move - first found the fault of the third lady, and then made trouble so that the third lady could not step down, and then used herself to stab the matter to Xu Lingyi...... In this way, the third lady herself is difficult to protect, not only to relieve her siege, but she can also take the opportunity to shout that the third lady wants to fix her, and even more, it can be said that because she knows about the third lady's exchange of rice, the third lady can't tolerate her!
There was a bit of solemnity between Eleven Niang's eyebrows: "Report to Master Hou?" Wouldn't that make everyone know? ”
