Chapter 202: Live in moderation
Sitting in front of the dresser, Shaohua looked at the polished and bright bronze mirror, looked at the slender figure and charming face in the bronze mirror, and stretched out his hand to caress the delicate skin. He kissed every inch of skin on his body affectionately last night, and two blushes appeared on his fair and delicate face in an instant, which made Youhan, who was putting on makeup, a little puzzled, she obviously hadn't put on rouge yet, why did Madame's face become so red.
Chu He was rummaging through the cabinets to find clothes for her, changing several sets repeatedly, and finally picked out a cigarette lotus-colored skirt, tied a water-green ribbon, and her waist was as soft and graceful as a spring breeze and willows.
Mama Rong, who was standing by and watching the three of her master and servant busy, couldn't help but wait for Shaohua to dress up, and then began to nag.
"Madam, it's not me saying you, even if the husband and wife are in love, Qin Se and Ming must have a degree, young people must be temperate, otherwise you will regret it in the future." She has heard the maids talk more than once that the lights in the Hou Ye's house have not been turned off in the middle of the night, and the figures on the windows are longing and faintly visible. It's just once or twice, from Shaohua to Yan Kaizhi finally finished his vacation and returned to the DPRK on an errand.
sang for several nights in a row, singing every night, but every morning Yan Kaizhi was energetic and refreshed, looking at everyone with a smile and a smile on his face, he was very kind and polite to people. But Shaohua often sleeps at three poles in the sun, and he only gets up lazily at noon. Mrs. Yan was open-minded, and when it was supposed to be the time for the new daughter-in-law to make rules, she understood the young man's tiredness and tiredness, so she let her have more time to rest.
When Mama Rong heard this, she even felt hot and uncomfortable even if she had a thick face in the palace. The matter of the couple's boudoir should have been low-key and private, but they didn't care about it, so that everyone in the Hou Mansion knew how affectionate the Hou and his wife were every night. was only raised and politely accepted by Yan Kaizhi before, and decided not to interfere in embarrassment, but now it is difficult for her not to interfere.
Shaohua responded with his mouth, but his eyes looked elsewhere, instructing Chu He to do things. "Well, Hatsuhe, bring me that rue powder."
Seeing that she didn't put her mind on this matter at all, Mama Rong sighed secretly several times, and said faintly: "Madam, I know that you annoy me, but as a dowry grandmother, I must give you a reminder, it is not okay to go on like this, it is you who suffer." ”
"Okay, I know." Shaohua nodded, and changed the topic the next moment: Sure enough, I still have to dress up refreshingly and look good. "Youhan, I don't want this hairpin, give me another one. That's it, yes, it's that jasmine hosta. ”
"Madame!" Mama Rong finally started a frenzy and shouted angrily in a low voice, startling the three masters and servants.
As soon as she finished shouting, she immediately lowered her expression and straightened her clothes, as if she had just accidentally sneezed. Shaohua thought that he couldn't escape after all, so he asked Chu He and Youhan to retreat first, so as to leave a private space for her and Mama Rong.
Shaohua knew Mama Rong's identity in this family in his heart, and he regarded her as an elder from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't think that she was the one who served him at all. It's just that she knows better than anyone what her behavior means these days, and she has heard a lot about the parents of the women in the family, and she is a little worried that if she can't have a child as she wishes, she will follow their old path. She originally thought that marrying Yan Kaizhi was her long-cherished wish, as long as the goal was achieved, so she was willing to accept the cumbersome and customary gifts before the wedding.
But when she returned to the door, she really experienced what it meant to be an adult, and suddenly found that the beauty she expected was accompanied by troubles that she had never thought of.
As the Ling family said, it is imperative that she have a child who can inherit Yan Kai's title, so that her life can start peacefully. It's easy to say, she has to be dismantled every night, but her husband seems to be emaciated, and this physical strength is so good that she cries and scolds. Every day he is refreshed, she has to sleep for most of the day to barely make up for her spirits, and no food can arouse her desire to sleep, but the only thing worth being happy is that she and Yan Kaizhi are no longer just chasing distances, you can really feel each other.
Shaohua wrapped around a strand of loose hair, and said coquettishly: "Mama, I know, I know, can you not always tell me this in front of the maid, it sounds so embarrassing." She saw it all just now, and the smile in Chu He Youhan's eyes almost burst out laughing.
Mama Rong almost choked on her throat by her words, her face showed an unnatural expression, she coughed twice, and said seriously: "Ahem, this is not a difficult thing to be embarrassed about, I am for your good." How old are you, if you don't control yourself. Halfway through speaking, Mama Rong always felt that she was too subtle, and Shaohua didn't take it seriously, shaking her head and sighing, "Eh, I am embarrassed that you let my old face and old skin talk these words to your little girl!" ”
She is so old, and she has been widowed for many years, and she has to come back to reiterate to Shaohua that life should be temperate and not too indulgent. Not to mention whether the body can bear it, just what she saw, Shaohua's round little face showed a sharpened chin, and there were some shadows under the eyes. Not to mention that she accidentally saw those red, purple and purple marks on Shaohua's arm, she knew what was going on at a glance, and she felt ashamed when she saw her old face, and she really couldn't stand it, so she came to persuade her.
When Shaohua heard her last words, she smiled at Mama Rong in the mirror. came back to his senses, took Mama Rong's hand, ignored her avoidance of things, and said with a smile: "Mama, it's still like this, just like when you went back to school in Baichuan Pavilion, what should you do, and where you can't do it well, you won't deliberately hinder your identity." ”
Listening to Shaohua's coquettishness, Mama Rong also had to shake her head helplessly, she had a preference for this former student and current master.
Because of this, she is so anxious, for fear that she will be injured. Mama Rong gently pushed away Shaohua's hand, seeing that she was no longer liar, and said solemnly: "This is different, you are now Mrs. Hou, and you are no longer the little lady you were at the beginning, and the rules that should be there can't be messed up." This mansion is no longer just the former uncle's mansion, there are everyone in it, even if it is an old servant, Mrs. still has to show some real skills to serve the public, and it is untenable to rely on the favor of the Hou Ye to you. ”
Now Yan Kaizhi is indeed very fond of Shaohua, in the words of Mama Rong, if this is in the palace, it will definitely be a demon concubine and a faint monarch. But she didn't dare to say that, because they were just Lord Hou and Mrs. Hou, so they were kind and presumptuous, and she turned a blind eye. But this does not mean that Yan Kaizhi's love for her can allow her to spend her life in this Hou Mansion from now on.
Shaohua still knows this in his heart, Yan Kaizhi told her early on that the people in this mansion are no longer as simple as he used to be. Some people can't move, some people are not easy to deal with now, some people are their own people, and now she is his wife, and she has to be in charge of this family, so he can't all the people and things in the family come forward for her, but she still needs to deal with it.
"I know this, I'll deal with it when I get back." Shaohua nodded, but she has more important things to do today, and she will wait for her to come back.
Mama Rong saw that Shaohua finally got up to deal with family affairs, and finally felt a little relieved in her heart, "Also, you and Hou Ye have this affair ......"
Shaohua immediately lowered his little face and looked at Mama Rong pitifully, "Oh, Mama, can you not mention it?" ”
Mama Rong didn't say anything better, and warned with a tiger face: "No! I have to be responsible for you, and if you don't dare to speak up, I will give up my cheeks and administer justice for you. How can someone stop for so many days in a row, how can your body eat! ”
Shaohua was in a hurry, and immediately jumped up to stop Mama Rong, and said repeatedly: "Mama, don't go, it has nothing to do with him, yes, I want it." After a pause, he blushed and told Mama Rong the truth.
Mama Rong looked at Shaohua with straight eyes, feeling incredulous, thinking that Shaohua was defending Yan Kaizhi. "Madame can't be too accommodating to Master Hou, there are some things that have to be raised."
Shaohua stomped her foot, the steps on her head shook, and her face flushed with shame, "Mama is really what I requested, he originally refused to obey, it was me, cough cough, in short, it's not his business." She was so anxious that she almost bit her tongue, "I want to have a child sooner, so Cai, Cai, oh, don't ask, Mama." ”
Only then did Mama Rong finally believe that this night sheng song was not the idea of the unscrupulous marquis Yan Kaizhi, but the decision of her own heartless wife.
Hearing Shaohua mention the child, Mama Rong looked at her deeply, hesitated for a moment, and felt that she still couldn't agree. "Even if you do, you can't be unrestrained, you're so nonsense. Even if you are pregnant and your body collapses, you can't keep it. No, no, if you are so willful, I have to go back and talk to Mrs. Dingxihou. ”
"Don't, don't, I'll just pay attention in the future, you must not go and tell your mother." Shaohua was in a hurry, and fine sweat broke out on his forehead.
She knew Mrs. Xin's temperament too well, and if she knew that she had the cheekiness to ask her husband not long after she passed the door, Mrs. Xin would have to make fun of her and be ashamed. On the day they wanted to go back, after they came back from the Li family, they deliberately went to the Dingxi Hou Mansion again, and she and Yan Kaizhi were almost ridiculed so much that they wanted to run away from the door.
It seems that she has to find another way to give birth to a child, but it's okay, if it goes on like Mama Rong, she has to lose her life.
As soon as he persuaded Mama Rong away, Chu He came over to convey the report that Yingluo had come to report, "Madam, Master Hou asked someone to send a message that there is something in the palace, and it may be very late tonight, so you don't have to wait for him." ”
Shaohua's movements paused, and the hand that was originally going to be smeared with rouge suddenly let go, and his eyes darkened a little, "Got it." ”
Hatsuho cautiously asked, "Then Madame, are you still going out?" ”
Shaohua was a little disappointed, "I won't go." Yan Kaizhi obviously promised to go to court early today and accompany her out, causing her to dress up carefully for so long.
Chu He and Youhan glanced at each other, knowing that Shaohua was so attentive to dressing up, but he was helpless. Just as he was looking for something else to divert Shaohua's attention, a maid in the compound ran in panting and reported: "Madam, it's not good! Xu Yong's family and Pang Ding's family quarreled in the courtyard. "Seeing that she is sweating profusely, it seems that the matter is very serious.
Youhan was afraid that Shaohua didn't know anyone, so she immediately presented the news she had collected, "Madam, Xu Yong is the son of the Yan family, his son fought with his late uncle, and his daughter-in-law is the number one in the needlework room. Pang Ding is a person from the General Affairs Office not long ago, and I heard that he has a father-in-law who is a great eunuch in the palace, but he doesn't know which palace he is waiting in. ”
Shaohua suddenly realized, it seemed that things were coming earlier than she expected, "Does Mrs. Tai know?" "I'm a little anxious, why did I let Mama Rong go back just now, and now no one asks.
The maid nodded, and said anxiously: "I have asked Mrs. Tai, and it is good to let Mrs. deal with such a trivial matter." ”
Bagatelle? If it's a trivial matter, there is no need to rush the maid like this, it seems that Mrs. Yan regards this as a test for her.
"Let's go, let's see."
