"Yo...... Grandpa still cares about your girl's family affairs? Yingqiu said with some envy, in her eyes, Bai Shizu was not like such a trivial person.

Caiping said proudly: "Of course, although the grandfather looks serious, but he is good to the subordinates of Fuluyuan, and he is decent, sometimes he will say hello when he sees our subordinates, and when he asked about my age last time, he said that he would match me with a good family next year!" ”

Yingqiu listened to the glint in her eyes, but quickly lowered her head, for fear of revealing any thoughts, and said a little crampedly: "Then sister will congratulate you, and I will also ask for a cup of wine to eat when the time comes!" ”

Caiping didn't feel shy at all, and quipped: "My sister is older than me, maybe I will drink my sister's wedding wine first!" Didn't Madame think about the future of you and Sister Nuan Dong? Generally, in large families, the big maids in the lady's room are all ......"

Yingqiu saw that she wanted to speak and stopped, so she asked casually, "What are you going to do?" You girl seems to know a lot of things! ”

Caiping touched her head honestly and said with a smile: "I also listened to what my mother and other ladies said when they gossiped, otherwise where do I know anything, they say that the big girls in the ladies of big families are all for the masters, but ...... Sister Yingqiu probably doesn't have this mind, so she has the right to talk nonsense about me, don't take it to heart! ”

When Yingqiu heard this, she only felt bitter in her heart as if she had eaten Coptis chinensis, but she still had to force a smile and said: "Don't talk nonsense anymore, you have to suffer from it when Mrs. listens, go to work, I have to go back and change my clothes!" ”

Caiping hurriedly responded, jumped and ran away, leaving Yingqiu alone there stunned, she is already twenty years old, when will she have a head?

Caiping's words are like a key, opening the secret garden in Yingqiu's heart, staying in Fulu Garden for these days, she feels more and more unable to suppress the desire in her heart, seeing her grandfather every day, but she can only peek at it from a distance every day, this kind of suffering that she can't ask for, only she understands.

Bai Shizu has been looking for Mrs. Bai since he hoped to take out some silver to supplement the Lu family, but he was resigned by the old lady crying poorly, but Bai Shizu did not give up, although he did not care about the Bai family's property, but he also knew that the family was rich, and he didn't dare to say that he could still get more than ten or two hundred thousand taels.

When the old man was still there, the Ningguo Mansion was powerful and powerful, and the old lady was a shrewd person, who had purchased many properties and personally operated them for decades, and he remembered that when his younger brother was released as an official, he also took a lot of property with him.

So Bai Shizu still didn't give up, in his opinion, the Lu family raised a pair of children for himself, and he had so many years of affection, he couldn't watch her being forced to death by Bai Hibiscus.

And Bai Hibiscus, he no longer has the face to beg her to raise his noble hand, after all, he has indeed ignored Bai Hibiscus and his brothers for so many years, failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father, and failed to promise his deceased wife's last wish.

So every day when I came back from the yamen, I had to go to the Tang Pear Garden, wanting to make the old lady loose through soft grinding and hard soaking.

"Mother, my son has said hello to you!" Bai Shizu licked his smiling face and said respectfully.

Old Madam Bai looked at him, and knew why he came, her son, where could she not know his careful thoughts, but pretended not to know and said: "Well, grandpa should accompany the Lu family more if he has nothing to do, hasn't she been in good health?" ”

Bai Shizu also wanted to go to see the Lu family earlier, but when he thought that he hadn't been able to complete the Lu family's begging, why was he embarrassed to accompany her empty-handed.

So he had no choice but to say with a bitter face: "Mother, you know your son's difficulties, just do it, take some silver to fill the gap for the Lu family, you can't really let the county lord send her to prison, right?" ”

Old Madam Bai snorted coldly and said, "That's also her own doing, she actually did so many dirty things under our noses, how could she have put me, my mother-in-law, and you, your husband, in her eyes?" thought that the Bai family belonged to her alone, and they were all surnamed Lu! ”

When Old Madam Bai knew that the Lu family had embezzled such a huge sum of money in the past ten years, in addition to being shocked, she was more angry, because her mother-in-law had never seen half of the silver, and all of them were used by the Lu family to supplement her mother's brother, how could she not be angry?

Bai Shizu saw the old lady's face full of anger, and persuaded patiently: "Mother, Ning Xiang already knows that she is wrong, and she regrets it, just for the sake of her conscientious help to the Bai family to have children in the past ten years, and for the sake of husband and children, forgive her this time!" ”

"Forgive her? Yes...... Let her spit out all the silver she eats by herself, I will naturally not pursue her, but I want the Bai family to be responsible for what she has done, I will only give you two words 'don't think'! Old Madam Bai said coldly.

Bai Shizu sighed deeply and said, "Ning Xiang is my wife after all, we are a family, why should my mother be so ruthless?" ”

Old Madam Bai was not angry, but said calmly: "Say this to me, it is better to go and say to your good daughter, it is your daughter who is persecuting the Lu family now, not me, as long as she does not pursue it, there will be no trouble!" ”

Bai Shizu was dumbfounded, and what his mother said made sense, if Bai Mu Hibiscus was willing to let go of the Lu family, why should he give his own money to his family?

Old Madam Bai saw that there was a loose expression on his face, and continued: "You also said, they are all a family, although she is now the county lord, she will also open her own house and establish a household in the future, but in the end, it is also your flesh and blood, are your father's words useless to her at all?" ”

Bai Shizu's face turned red and muttered: "Mother also knows that since that incident, Jin'er has also been dissatisfied with me, a father, how can she listen to me!" ”

Old Madam Bai snorted, seemed to be very dissatisfied, and reproached: "It's not that your mother blames you, your temperament is too weak, what if she is the county lord?" Can I disrespect your father? When the trouble is about to go out, others will only scold her for being unfilial, and she wants to persecute her parents, what are you afraid of? ”

When Bai Shizu heard this, he only felt ashamed and said, "Mother...... I'm also afraid that things will not look good for us, after all...... This matter is Ning Xiang's fault, and ...... What good is it for my father to ruin Jin'er's reputation! ”

In the end, he also had some guilt about Bai Muhibiscus, and he wanted to kill her when he was excited, but when he calmed down, he felt that it was his blood and bones, and he couldn't be ruthless.

"You treat her as a daughter, she doesn't necessarily treat you as a father, if she really respects you, how can she embarrass you? I'm old, I can't manage a lot, only one thing, as long as I live for one day, no one will want to touch the family business left by your father, this is your brother's, you can't just give you one, the title was inherited by you, I can't not think about your brother! Old Madam Bai said that in the end, there was no patience.

Bai Shizu heard his mother say this, and he also felt that he was unreasonable, although he was the eldest son of the grandson, he should inherit his father's title, but ...... When the family property was in the past, my father said that he wanted the two brothers to divide it equally.

Now that my younger brother is an official in Taizhou, he has not come back for several years, and if he takes advantage of his brother's absence in Beijing to force his mother to take out the silver to supplement his wife, it is really a bit unreasonable. This is contrary to the sage teachings he received, so Bai Shizu can only hang his head helplessly!

Old Madam Bai saw her son's dejected appearance, and finally sighed and said: "I can't take it out if I have more, I will give you 10,000 taels, it can be regarded as a game between me and Lu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and I can't do anything else!" ”

When Bai Shizu heard this, although 10,000 taels was a bit of a drop in the bucket, it was better than nothing, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you mother for your compassion, my son is not thoughtful in doing things, and I ask my mother to forgive me for embarrassing my mother!" ”

Old Madam Bai waved her hand and said, "You are my son, how can a mother bear to look at you embarrassed?" It's just that in the future, you should also take good care of your unruly wife, and do some humiliating things, how can you be the master of the country's mansion? ”

"Yes...... The son has written it down, and he will not indulge her again! Bai Shizu should admit it.

When Mrs. Bai looked at him, she knew that her words had little impact on her son, he was a soft-eared person, and he would forget about the southeast and northwest after being coaxed by the Lu family.

But as soon as she thought of Mu Xinping's words, Old Madam Bai suddenly softened her tone and said, "Shizu, your face is not very good these days, let Grandma Sun give you a pulse, if you are uncomfortable, it is easy to recuperate!" ”

Bai Shizu touched his face and said, "Well, it is estimated that I can't sleep peacefully because of the successive events, and my body is a little weak, so I will bother Grandma Sun!" ”

Grandma Sun hurriedly went over, showed Bai Shizu the pulse, frowned slightly, and asked after a long time: "Grandpa is there anything other than tiredness?" Feeling uncomfortable with the place? ”

"It's not true, it's always been fine, what's wrong?" Bai Shizu was slightly surprised, and thought that there was something wrong with him.

Grandma Sun smiled, shook her head, and said, "It's okay if you don't have it, Grandpa has always been healthy, but he is too tired, the slave and maid prescribe some conditioning prescriptions, drink a few doses of medicine, and it will be no problem!" ”

Only then did Bai Shizu settle down and said, "There is Mama Lao!" ”

Mama Sun hurriedly went to fetch some Wen Bu recipe for him, Bai Shizu left, he had to hurry up and make it clear to the Lu family, his mother was only willing to give 10,000 taels here, and the others had to be thought of as soon as possible, who let Bai Mu Hibiscus only give Lu a month and a half!

After Bai Shizu left, Old Lady Bai asked, "Is there anything wrong?" ”

Grandma Sun shook her head and said, "No, grandpa's body has always been very good, and Mrs. has not been pregnant, it is estimated that she was injured at the root during childbirth, and the birth of twins is already dangerous and abnormal, and it is not strange to not be pregnant again!" ”

"But it's strange that Xinping hasn't moved there, your body has always been in charge of conditioning, it stands to reason that it should have been there a long time ago, what's going on?" Old Madam Bai frowned and asked suspiciously.

Mama Sun was also a little puzzled, so she said: "It seems that I need to check the second lady's house, there are some things that don't need to hurt the body, and they can also make people pregnant!" ”
