Chapter Thirty-Nine: Still Water Breeze
Old Madam Lu stared at the family sent by the second room to deliver the message, and did not speak, until the family was covered with sweat stains on his forehead, then she looked away and sneered: "Road sacrifice?!" None of the masters of our six rooms are here, what kind of road sacrifice is set up?! ”
The family Ding swallowed his saliva and replied cautiously: "Our master said that the identity of the sixth old lady is not ordinary, and it cannot be compared with those clansmen of the side branches, even if you are not in Guzhuang, if there is any major matter in the clan, you can't miss your share!" ”
"Oh?" Old Madam Lu raised her eyebrows, "So, how many sacrificial tents have they set up?!" ”
"From long rooms to six rooms...... It's all set up, originally the ninth master of the seventh room has entered the city to prepare for the festival, and after hearing the news, he also specially brought the family back to participate, but the second master said that the ninth master had no merit and no lineage, so he didn't let him come forward, and only asked him to take his son to act with the long room. ”
Old Madam Lu sneered when she heard this, and then sneered twice. The housekeeper's face turned red, and he knew it, but he didn't dare to say anything, he only shrunk his neck, and acted respectfully at his orders.
Wen Yi listened to it, and her heart was bright. Among the six-room clansmen of the lineage, the third room had a dispute with other clansmen because of difficulties in the early years, and there was a dispute with other clansmen over the sale of the clan land, and after the matter was resolved, they moved out of Guzhuang, and I heard that they had taken root outside, and when she lived in the second room in her previous life, she also heard that they sent people back to ask for the ancestral grave to be moved, and planned to open another sect. Since no one in Sanfang was present, it was extremely ridiculous to set up a road sacrifice in the name of his family. I don't know if it's the idea of a long room or a second room, what does it mean?!
Glancing at the family, Wen Yi asked a little cautiously: "I haven't heard about King Kang's spirit transfer before, and I thought it was decided in a hurry, and today's coffin passed through Pingyin County, and it also passed in a hurry. It stands to reason that the imperial court has not yet made a clear decree, and the matter involves the vassal king, shouldn't people like us be more cautious? It is to set up a road sacrifice, and only one shed is set up in a family, how can there be a reason for each person in each house to set up his own so that people think that our people are alienated from each other? ”
She looked very young, so the family didn't care, just smiled: "This is the second master of the long room specially sent a message, asking each room to be purchased, and it makes sense to think that the second master wants to come." We are young and have no knowledge, where can we understand the intentions of the second master? ”
Wen Yi frowned, and then ignored him anymore. Old Madam Lu was angry when she heard this, and sneered: "Who came up with my Dao, it turned out to be him?!" There are no tigers in the mountains, monkeys are overlords! The eldest is not here, and the second child is shaking?! I don't usually see him do anything serious, but now he is very positive! It's a pity! King Kang died early in his prime, and the son of the world is just a little doll, even younger than his family's Xiaoqi, even if the second child is full of sycophants, people may not recognize who he is! Isn't this flattering for the blind?! ”
Because it was not the owner of the second room who was scolding, and the family was just smiling flatteringly, Wen Yi was worried that he would talk nonsense after returning to Guzhuang, which would cause others to criticize the grandmother, so he quietly pulled the sleeve of Old Madam Lu, who glanced at her, and held back his anger and said, "You came here to tell me about this?!" I already know, when I go back in a few days, I will return the silver that your old lady gave us six rooms! Go down. ”
The family hesitated a little, and asked with a smile: "Sixth old lady, ...... Don't plan to go back to the village for the holidays? Our wife has been talking about it for a long time, for fear that your family will be busy this year, and she will not be able to prepare, and she will send a few kinds of moon cakes to Xuanhetang, if she knows that you don't plan to go back to the village for the holiday, you must be sad! ”
Mrs. Lu squinted her eyes and said lightly: "There are many things in the new Zhuangzi this year, and our grandparents and grandchildren will not go back, you will pass the word to your wife for me, just say that my wife and son will receive her love, and when I return home, I will definitely make up for it!" ”
The family Ding wanted to say anything more, but Mrs. Lu had already claimed that she was tired and asked Uncle Zhang to send off the guests. The family had no choice but to kowtow, muttering in his heart: "I heard that the old lady of the sixth room is very mean, and some people say that it is just a false rumor, today it seems that it is really mean, and the words are sent away without letting people finish speaking, not to mention the reward, Lao Tzu ran for a day, and he refused to entertain even a meal, isn't it a legend that the sixth room made a fortune?" Why are you so stingy?! ”
As a result, Uncle Zhang sent him out of the main house, then turned back and stayed for a while before coming out, and very enthusiastically pulled him to eat, but when he arrived in the kitchen, there was meat and vegetables, although in his eyes it was a little simpler, it was still able to eat. Uncle Zhang specially drank again and said to him: "Brother has worked hard here, it's not easy to walk on the road, right?" Our young lady said that it was already past noon, and my brother was afraid that it would be too late to go back, so he turned around and asked the farmer to borrow a room in the village, temporarily wronged for one night, and it was not too late to go back tomorrow. If you take a shortcut, the fast horse can rush back to the village in half a day, and when you reply to the master, you can also catch up with the wine and enjoy the moon! After speaking, he took out a reward envelope from his arms: "This is our old lady and young lady to reward you, it is difficult for you to celebrate the hard work of the festival." ”
As soon as the family Ding took the reward envelope, he took out the five coins of silver in it, a trace of joy flashed on his face, and he said with emotion: "The sixth old lady and the ninth lady are really sympathetic!" In his hand, he quickly put the reward seal into his arms, and then looked at the wine and food in front of him, and felt pleasing to the eyes, and said with a smile: "If you can rush back in half a day, then I will eat and leave, and there will be wine in the village tomorrow." ”
Uncle Zhang responded while carefully glancing out of the kitchen, Zi Ying quietly gave him a few glances by the door, he nodded again and again, and then personally took the cup and persuaded the family to drink a few more glasses.
After the family was lying down in an empty room in the neighbor's farmhouse full of alcohol, Uncle Zhang hurriedly ran back to the small courtyard, Wen Yi and Zi Ying had been waiting in the main house for a long time, and when they saw this, they hurriedly asked him, "How is it?!" Mrs. Lu also slowly walked out of the inner room, sat down in the right seat with the support of her granddaughter, and asked Uncle Zhang again.
Uncle Zhang said: "The little one told the man what Miss taught me, and the man had a tight mouth at first, but then he drank happily, so he poured beans and said it. It turned out that two days after the old lady and the young lady left Guzhuang that day, there were rumors in the village that the reason why the old lady of the long house got sick was because she was angry with Miss Six, so Miss Six would be escorted back to the capital! Although the old lady and the second lady of the long house repeatedly defended that there was no such thing, they couldn't stop people's mouths, and as a result, the eldest lady fell ill again! ”
Old Madam Lu frowned: "Since she is sick, if you want to ask us to go back, whether it is to visit the sick or clarify, to put it bluntly, what are you doing like this?!" ”
Wen Yi whispered: "Uncle and grandmother had already intended to avoid us before, how can we say it now?" I think it's because his family is weak-hearted, but for some reason, it's the fourth uncle who sent someone? "The second room and the long room are not in harmony with each other!
Mrs. Lu was reminded by her, and hurriedly asked Uncle Zhang, "What else did that person say?!" ”
"Yes, back to the old lady's words, the man said that the long house saw that the rumors in the village were not dispersed, so he said that he would celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, not only to have a flowing water feast, but also to invite a famous troupe from Cannes to have fun. Seeing that there was something new inside and outside the village, he put aside Miss Six's gossip within two days. ”
Old Madam Lu snorted coldly and said in a muffled voice: "Since it's okay, what are you doing to disturb people and quiet?!" ”
Uncle Zhang said cautiously: "It's because ...... King Kang's son sent Ling to Beijing...... The second master insisted on setting up a road sacrifice, saying that the Gu family, as the head of the Pingyang Wang clan, could not miss this opportunity to have a long face...... Some of the people in each house were in favor and some were against, but because it was a long house with an order, they all acted according to the order...... It's just that after the fact, a few rooms didn't get this dignity, and they began to talk about the gossip of the long house again, and they didn't even care about the drama and wine at the Mid-Autumn Festival. Seeing the rumors raging in Zhuangzhong, the fourth master and the fourth wife were worried that if things got bigger, the eldest lady's condition would worsen, and she was the only one in the clan who could suppress the second master...... The fourth master thinks ...... Old lady, you are also a command, you are decent in front of the eldest lady, if you are willing to come forward to persuade the second master......"
Old Madam Lu sneered: "He remembers that I am Mrs. Destiny now?!" I'm afraid that people have forgotten about it a long time ago! ”
Uncle Zhang didn't dare to answer, so he lowered his head. Wen Yi hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Why should grandmother be angry? The fourth uncle was anxious and confused, and he had to try any method. If you think about it, there have always been rules for this road sacrifice, and the second uncle didn't know what was wrong, and suddenly became so active. The fourth uncle has always been in charge of clan affairs, and he thinks it's inappropriate, but he can't convince the second uncle, so he is in a hurry to go to the doctor. Let's just ignore their idle affairs, the second uncle may not have us in his eyes, so why should we go back and obstruct his eyes? ”
Mrs. Lu sneered: "I'm afraid it's not for the road sacrifice, but because the second child steals his limelight, right?!" ”
Wen Yi lowered her head and was silent, and Old Madam Lu was also a little discouraged: "We are all hiding out, why do we have to find the door for trouble?!" Isn't it enough for us to hide?! What did my wife do? Usually no one thinks that I am a fate, but now that there is something, they have to pull me out as a shield! After that, he instructed Uncle Zhang: "When the man wakes up, send someone away, just say that I am not well, I can't hurry, and I have to rest for a few days and then go back." ”
Uncle Zhang took the order to go down, Wen Yi saw that her grandmother was in a bad mood, and was about to think of comfort, but Mrs. Lu stretched out her hand: "Nine girls, you can help me go back to the room." Wen Yi hurriedly helped her to go inside, Zi Ying stood in place and thought about it, then exited the main house, carefully closed the door, looked left and right, went back to the room to get a needlework basket, sat in front of the steps and embroidered flowers.
In the house, Wen Yi helped her grandmother to the bed, took off her shoes, pulled the thin quilt, and beat her legs again. Old Madam Lu stopped her and sighed, "This is not your job, stop it!" Sit close to your grandmother, who has something to say to you. ”
Wen Yi said with a smile: "It is a matter of course for a granddaughter to wait for her grandmother. So saying, he lifted himself over the bench and sat down in front of the bed.
Old Madam Lu thought for a while before she said, "You also heard it...... This Gu clan ...... It's not a pool of still water, although our grandparents and grandchildren want to live their own small lives, they can't bear to be searched for by others. Although the incense is broken in the sixth room, it is a descendant, and I have a decree on my head, usually others don't take us seriously, and when something happens, it is inevitable to come to the door......"
Wen Yi listened a little gloomy, and said in a low voice: "Grandmother, don't pay attention to it." No matter who is in power, there is no reason to trouble orphans and widows! Grandmother said she didn't know and didn't want to care, so what could they do? ”
Old Madam Lu sighed and said, "Having said that, it is difficult to say what will happen when you actually encounter it. She looked at her granddaughter: "I am telling you this to remind you to be careful, in the Gu clan, it is not monolithic, because the patriarch of the Changfang clan has been away for many years, and he has not been able to bring the juniors of the clan, there are not one or two people in the clan who have different intentions." This kind of trouble has nothing to do with me, but I am most afraid that you will be stirred into it. In the future, you have to remember that apart from your grandmother, what the other elders in the clan want you to do, you only delay, don't say yes! Even for your four uncles and aunts, as well as fifteen uncles and fifteen aunts, this is true! ”
Wen Yi was shocked, bit her lip, and solemnly responded: "Granddaughter remembers." ”
Only then did Old Madam Lu slow down her expression, and said, "Nie family...... I can't get used to it, and I can't change it. But they are okay with you, and it's good for you to ask them for help in trouble. In the end, it is a close relative, but I am afraid that it is more than a clansman of the same lineage...... And be more reliable......"
Wen Yi had some different thoughts in her heart, she looked at her grandmother carefully, and then said boldly: "My granddaughter doesn't understand anything now, so she naturally has to ask her uncle and cousin for advice, but when her granddaughter learns, she can't ask their family for help anymore!" Always relying on others is not a long-term solution. Uncle and eldest cousin still have their own affairs to take care of! ”
Old Madam Lu looked surprised, and suddenly understood something: "These days, you always ask people about farming, don't you ......?"
Wen Yi blushed slightly, lowered her head and said, "Granddaughter knows, this is a little shocking in the boudoir, but granddaughter ...... I'm really afraid, I'd rather be laughed at than rely on others for everything in the future. Granddaughter...... It's just that I'm younger and know less things, and that's it, but as long as I learn, I'm no worse than others! Boys can support the family business...... So can my granddaughter! ”
Mrs. Lu remembered her "dream" and remembered the Nie family's purchase of land, so she was silent for a while before she sighed: "You go out first, wait for grandmother...... Think about it. ”
Wen Yi looked up at her uneasily, and saw that she closed her eyes and didn't say a word, so she had to salute and leave the room. When she closed the door, Mrs. Lu opened her eyes, her eyes were red, and she murmured, "After all, ...... It's my old woman who is useless and has affected the children......"
Wen Yi went out to the eaves of the main house, kept looking back at the back room, and her heart was up and down, I don't know if Fang Cai's words were too straightforward and made my grandmother angry?
"Miss?" Purple Sakura called her, she turned around and smiled reluctantly, "What's the matter?" ”
Zi Ying pointed behind her: "Yun Nier came to find Miss and said that she had something to tell you." ”
Wen Yi looked over, and really saw Qin Yunni standing there tremblingly, holding a burden in her hand, and saluted her: "Miss." ”
Wen Yi barely squeezed out a smile: "Don't be polite, what are you...... Going? Are you going to leave right away?! ”
Yunni shook her head, suddenly knelt on the ground, and presented the burden with a red face: "This is for the eldest lady, you are a good person!" I will remember your great kindness for the rest of my life! ”
Wen Yi was stunned for a moment, looking at the burden, and her mood suddenly became complicated.
