Chapter Twenty-Six: The First Counterattack

"Grandmother, you are not angry, it's all Gardenia's fault."

Mrs. Xia Gonghou looked at Xia Yu's appearance, and heard Xia Yu admit her mistakes, and even said angrily:

"I know it's wrong, and I don't go back."

Everyone in the hall was stunned, they basically didn't hear what Xia Yan said, only heard Mrs. Hou's loud shout.

Xia Yan suddenly raised his little head with teary eyes, looking pitiful, his voice was raised so that the entire Heyun Hall could hear it, and said in a straight voice:

"Grandmother, Gardenia shouldn't make Grandmother angry, but Grandmother Gardenia has no other clothes to wear except this one, which is Gardenia's most precious clothing, and Gardenia's jewelry box is empty, not even a silk flower."

The smile on Liu's face froze, and Mrs. Hou was no better, she only felt that her face was hot.

Xia Yi saw the two of them react like this, and then said:

"Gardenia usually comes to invite An with Sister Hongyao's jewelry, and when she returns to the water courtyard, she wants to return it to them immediately, but today Sister Hongyao gave Gardenia a set of six or seven new earthy yellow skirts, and lent Gardenia two beaded flowers to bring."

Speaking of this, Xia Yu glanced at the Liu family in fear, and everyone in the hall looked at her, and no one missed Xia Yan's glance at the Liu family.

"Who knows that Gardenia was whipped the day before yesterday and her body is very weak, and when she came to greet the ancestor with Sister Xi'er and other Yunhuan sisters in the pavilion in the back garden, her body couldn't bear it and fainted, and she lost Sister Hongyao's pearl flowers, I don't know if Sister Hongyao will punish Gardenia for not giving Gardenia food if she knows, and Gardenia didn't even drink a bowl of clear water porridge in the past this morning."

When Xia Yi said this, everyone present had different expressions, and the most exciting ones were the Liu family and Mrs. Hou.

The faces of the two were red and purple, purple and blue to the end, they were a little bruised and black, and the two of them stared at Xia Yu fiercely, eager to sew up Xia Yu's small mouth.

At this moment, there was a burst of laughter in the courtyard, and I heard the porter maid singing loudly:

"Slaves and maids greet all the noble ladies, and a few ladies please."

The second grandmother was pleasantly surprised when she heard this, and immediately became excited, and deliberately wiped her tears with a sharp throat and said:

"Poor granddaughter Gardenia, what kind of life is this, even the maid in the mansion is not as good, the cousin grandmother is hurt when she hears it, so if she practices a child like this, she is not afraid of being killed by thunder and thunder."

The old lady's face was so dark that she could drip ink, and a pair of cloudy eyes swept over Mrs. Hou, Cai, Liu, and the young Xia Yu one by one.

A pair of dead tree hands grabbed Xia Yunhuan and Xia Yunqing sisters, only to see the two female girls Zixiu showing a painful look on their faces, their small mouths closed tightly but they didn't dare to make the slightest sound.

The ladies who had just entered the hall were all wonderful people with interesting interests, and although they had doubts about the strange atmosphere in the hall, their faces were as normal as usual.

Behind him, the maid woman holding the gift box was behind, and the maid woman pressed her head low and didn't dare to come out.

Xia Yu looked at a few people, two of them were people in their dreams, and two of them Xia Yu had never seen.

The leaders are Mrs. Yu Shima, the third superintendent, and Mrs. Zhai, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who is the fourth pin, these two are also seen by Xia Yu in his dreams.

Mrs. Ma seemed to be as strict as in her dream, although her expression was nothing, but there was inquiry in her eyes.

Mrs. Zhai is also a subtle observer, her face does not change, but she has been observing the people in the hall.

There are three ladies behind him, one is Sun Yuci, the daughter of her stepmother's sister who Xia Yi knows and is very familiar with, and Jun Bing'er has a deep relationship, but the two sisters are married to very different people.

Sun Yuci's father is the county of Zhengbapinxishui County, because of Wang's love, Sun Yuci has been accompanied by Jun Bing'er since he was a child in the general's mansion in the north of the town.

Sun Yuci was raised by the Wang family with a very high temperament, and she has always taken a fancy to the people she wants to marry into the royal family of the prince's family, but she is just a cousin girl in the general mansion of the northern part of the town, how can the noble family look at her.

In the end, the Wang family had no choice but to ask the general to marry Sun Yuci to the powerful who had found a household, and he was the fourth rank of Zhan Shifu Shao Zhan Shi.

The other two wives, Xia Yi has never seen them, presumably they have just been out of the cabinet for a short time.

Mrs. Ma took a step forward first, blessed her body and said:

"The courtiers asked Mrs. Deng to ask Mrs. Min to ask Mrs. Min to ask for peace, and the courtiers congratulated the second young master on worshipping the first-grade military department book, and Lan'er brought it up."

As soon as Mrs. Ma's words fell, she saw that the old lady's face was even more gloomy and embarrassed.

The maid behind him immediately offered a congratulatory gift, and the mother-in-law in the hall hurriedly took it.

Xia Yi knew that this was a congratulatory gift for the female dependents, and the congratulatory gifts of the adults would be registered in the front hall, which was very interesting.

Xia Yan doesn't know why it's still Mrs. Xima's upright and stubborn temperament, if others ask for peace together, but Mrs. Ma picks up the peace that is invited according to the order.

Although Great-Grandmother Min is said to be the great-grandfather's main room, she also received a first-class fate, but she didn't know that the third grandfather was so angry that she earned a first-class fate for Great-Grandmother Deng.

Although it is true that they are all first-class Mrs. Fate, Deng Great-grandmother's one-grade destiny is different from others.

Great-grandmother Deng was made a special case for the honorable Mrs. of the First Rank of Commandment, which was much more noble than the ordinary Lady of the First Grade.

This character pressed the old lady's head, and this character still has a lot of origins.

It was the only concubine of the dynasty, the filial piety emperor and the noble concubine who personally asked the emperor to add it to Deng great-grandmother.

The concubine and great-grandmother Deng came out of the Deng family in Yizhou together, and they were the youngest aunts of great-grandmother Deng, and great-grandmother Deng had already married her great-grandfather, and the concubine took pity on great-grandmother Deng before she put down her shelf and begged the emperor for a while.

The old lady was the most taboo for others to mention this matter, but Mrs. Ma not only mentioned this matter, but also ranked the old lady's main room behind the side room of Deng great-grandmother, so it was strange that the old lady's face could be good-looking.

The atmosphere became awkward for a moment, and the horseman ignored the bends inside, saluted and stepped aside.

Mrs. Zhai stepped forward and blessed her body, and her voice sounded soft:

"The courtiers greet the two old ladies and congratulate the second young master of your mansion on his promotion to the rank of official step by step, Mo Lan."

The maid behind her was holding a beautiful jewelry box in both hands, and Xia Yi guessed that it was probably given to the Liu family.

The old lady's face was still embarrassed, and she always felt that everyone else was watching her jokes, and she was silent for a while, and the hall suddenly fell silent.

After a while, Great-Grandmother Deng lightly opened her lips, and her voice was a little cool, but very pleasant, and said:

"Get up."

The old lady turned her head violently and flew a knife at Great-Grandmother Deng, glaring at Great-Grandmother Deng with great displeasure.

Great-grandmother Deng didn't move at all, ignored the old lady, and continued to sit upright.

Mrs. Zhai hurriedly found a place to sit down, looking at the atmosphere in the hall full of gunpowder, she was a little restless, the two old ladies at the top were very noble, and they didn't get good fruit to eat if they offended anyone.

Sun Xinci was originally a big-hearted and unclear lord, and stepped forward to bless his body:

"Say hello to the two old ladies."

After finishing speaking, he retreated, and Mrs. Ma generally didn't wait for the two old ladies to get up and find their own position.

The maid who followed behind her was a little pale, and hurriedly stuffed the congratulatory gift into the mother-in-law's hand.

The old lady was completely panting for breath now, thinking that Sun Yuci looked down on her to be so rude.

Xia Yi held back her smile and was uncomfortable, her shoulders trembled slightly, and her face turned a little red, this Mrs. Ma and Sun Yuci are really masters who are angry and don't pay for their lives, but she likes their performance very much.
