The old lady is going to Tongzhou Grange to recuperate!

Zhu sent people to prepare overnight. So from evening to early morning, the news spread quickly. For the top and bottom of the Hou Mansion, this is undoubtedly a stone that stirs up a thousand waves, and for a while, from the large kitchen in the outer courtyard to the warehouse to the courtyards of each room, all of them are talking about this matter.

Some say that the situation in which the old lady has the power to monopolize and no one is obeyed will change from now on; Some say that the third master forced the old lady away as soon as he came back, and it was not good to spread it, even if the imperial history was there; It is also said that the old lady just went out to recuperate for a few days and came back not long after. When it was said that Chen Lan was going to serve with him, many people were sorry and sighed, saying that the third master of the previous marriage was not satisfactory, so he poured his anger on the third lady in the long room, so he forced people away. Under the divergent opinions, the older and experienced are counted, but the young and ignorant are not at ease.

Early in the morning, Chen Lan was about to go to the upper room of the Tatexiang Courtyard after dressing up, Chen Yan rushed in in a hurry, but he saw that Chen Lan was stunned and did not speak, and only after a long time did he grit his teeth and say, "Sister, isn't it just to marry that Su Wan'er?" I'll marry, as long as I agree. The third uncle won't force you away, right? ”

Chen Lan came back from the Tatexiang Courtyard very late last night, just waiting for Zheng's mother, who had returned from the palace in a hurry, and also heard the news that the assassin and the chief envoy would be beheaded for public display, so he didn't sleep well all night after he came back, and naturally forgot to send a message to Chen Yan. Seeing that his face was flushed, his eyes were bloodshot, and he didn't sleep well at night, she sighed in her heart, and when she saw that Hongluo and Qin Fang had retreated, she pulled someone to sit down.

"No one can force me out." If it was to others, Chen Lan naturally had perfunctory words, but Chen Yan was her younger brother after all, so she simply said honestly, "Don't listen to the nonsense of outsiders, this matter was decided by me at the suggestion of the old lady." You also saw the appearance of the third uncle yesterday, the old lady was angry like that, if there is really any mistake, what will be the situation at home at that time? We are all juniors, if it weren't for the old lady yesterday, your marriage would have been decided like this, you might be willing? In any case, we have to let the old lady recuperate first, and our grange in Tongzhou is the most suitable. ”

When the third uncle Chen Ying stuffed Su Wan'er over last night, Chen Yan stubbornly held back his tantrum and didn't say a word, but when he heard that Chen Lan was going to Tongzhou in the morning, he immediately couldn't bear it. At this moment, listen to my sister explain the reason for the matter clearly. He suddenly realized, but after hesitating for a moment, he whispered, "What about me?" ”

"You? You'll be twelve after the New Year, and you can't be on your own? Chen Lan quipped, and seeing that Chen Yan was a little embarrassed, she said with a straight face, "I have also discussed your affairs with the old lady, after all, you have to rush back before the queen's Qianqiu Festival, and it will not be a few days in total, I am not at ease when you are alone at home, and the old lady is not at ease, so I will take you with me." ”

"Great!"

Chen Yan's frustration and anxiety when he was in a hurry just now disappeared, and he was so happy that he almost jumped up, and then sat upright, and asked in a low voice: "Then sister, which people do you take with you?" Who should I take with me? ”

"I kept Qin Fang and Rui Xue to watch the house, and brought red snails and Sumu pepper. As for you, the girl in the house picks two of them safely, and then brings those four companions with her, and the rest of the people don't need it. Seeing that Chen Yan stood up after nodding again and again, Chen Lan shouted, "Don't be so impatient, go to the room of the Tatexiang Courtyard first." The old lady hasn't officially opened her mouth yet! ”

Cuiliu is in the back cover room.

Chen Ying stayed in Aunt Luo's house last night, and after the third watch got the news that the old lady was going to leave the house to recuperate, he no longer had the interest in love, but just hugged the woman next to him and looked at the tent above his head, until Tianming washed his face with cold well water, and then returned to his usual appearance. At this moment, Aunt Luo was beside him to dress him, and after bending down to tie a rhino belt, she sent the magpie parrot out, and stood on tiptoe to straighten his collar.

"Was the master too aggressive yesterday? If the old lady really leaves the house, I'm afraid it won't sound good. After all, the lord has just been ordained, and the imperial historians are staring at it! ”

Chen Ying smiled slightly, her eyes swept over Aunt Luo's coquettish face, and then she said casually: "Don't worry, she is just retreating." The news I told her last night was only afraid that she would be flustered for a while, but now that she has made enough gestures, she just wants me to leave her. Where does she really want to leave, leaving this Hou Mansion, he is not afraid that I will smash all her solid team in three or two strokes? Fleur and Mu Xi were locked up outside the Tatexiang Courtyard last night, which shows that it is difficult for her to trust the people around her, and when the time comes, she will have to be cleansed, but this person's panic is in my favor. When I turned around, I opened my mouth to persuade her to recuperate in the mansion, and if she heard that the two were missing, she would try to keep them, so that whoever was strict and who was lenient would be counted from top to bottom of the Hou Mansion. ”

Aunt Luo looked at Chen Ying's calm appearance, and thought to herself that she was fortunate not to follow her sister-in-law and nephew to Beijing, but chose to stay in Yunnan and follow Wei Guogong. Otherwise, you would have missed such a man. Although she was originally married by Ming Media, she had to consign to the side room in the end, but now that she has finally won her fate, and her husband trusts herself, what else does she have to say?

At this moment, she thought about it for a while, but she was still a little worried: "It's just that in the marriage of the Su family, the master still doesn't want to overstep his bounds." I think the old lady is now protecting the sisters and brothers of the long house, and it is not a big deal, so she can't go to this and the old lady. Also, Liaodong General Xu's side is really set for Qing'er? The Su family's marriage can't be given to the long room, there is only a second room, if they look at you too strongly, they have to lean towards the old lady......"

"You don't know the mystery of the Changfang siblings. The old lady didn't just wait for me to make a mistake so that she could hold Xiao Si up, but she was afraid that she was still thinking about the law that others had long forgotten. Chen Ying smiled, but stopped, tidied up her clothes in the mirror, and said unhurriedly. As for Qing'er, although she was not born by you, after all, she is my eldest son, how can she marry such a daughter-in-law who is a small family? In short, my children will not be at her mercy. As for my second brother and sister-in-law, did you see their reaction yesterday? I know the second brother best, he is greedy but has no means, he is timid and afraid, and as for the second sister-in-law, she can't be on the stage. My title was taken from them, and they did not lean against the old lady. Do you still count on me? ”

After saying this, he shook Aunt Luo's hand, and then said in an unquestionable tone: "Don't talk about this, in short, since I am back, you can take care of the children's affairs, as for Madame, just be respectful, don't provoke her, and she may not take care of your affairs." The emperor summoned me back to use my place, but if I blindly endure it, I am afraid that there will be another consideration. As long as the housework doesn't make a big fuss, the boss won't take care of it, otherwise why would you be sealed together? Okay, go to the main room and meet the lady, and then go to the old lady. ”

A quarter of an hour later, the main hall of the upper room of the Tateka-in Temple.

Although there are a lot of rumors in the Hou Mansion, early in the morning, the owners of the houses gathered here are as if they are nothing. After everyone greeted her, Zhu said lightly that Imperial Doctor Liu instructed her to find a quiet and elegant place to relax, at this moment, although even the young master and young ladies already knew, most of them still showed surprise, and the second master Chen Jiu hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her.

"Old lady, if you want to find a quiet place, only at home, why bother going out of the house? Just instruct your family not to make loud noises and not to trespass into the vicinity of Tateka-in, which is enough to ensure quiet. Besides, the Queen's Thousand Autumn Festival is coming, how can the top and bottom be separated from the old lady? ”

Looking at Chen Ying's demonstration last night, Chen Jiu's initial relief was quickly replaced by confusion. He had never been on the battlefield, and the Marquis of Yangning was won by the Zhu family's efforts that day, so seeing that Chen Ying attacked Changfang as soon as he came back, he could only choose to lean on the Zhu family's side. Seeing that Zhu frowned slightly, looking noncommittal, he hurriedly glanced at his wife.

Mrs. Ma's self-pity was the flash of thought last night. Looking back and thinking about it, how dare you let the third room sit in the big house and dominate the entire Hou Mansion, at this time, following Chen Jiu's eyes, she also hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "What the master said is, old lady, our Hou Mansion is on the shore of Shicha Sea, and it is difficult for the whole capital to find a quieter and more elegant house, and if you go out of Beijing, you are old, I am afraid that it is not good to saddle a horse." It's better to restrain the people in the family so that they can't be disturbed, and we can take turns to serve. ”

Seeing that the Erfang family was trying their best to keep it, Chen Ying smiled slightly, and then stepped forward, but she knelt on the ground on her knees and kowtowed respectfully: "The old lady has been in charge of the Hou Mansion for so many years, not only the affairs of the Hou Mansion cannot be separated from your mention for a moment, but even the younger generations cannot be separated from your teachings." As for the matter of recuperation, as long as the old lady speaks, she can immediately set the rules, and will never let an idle person disturb the old lady's recuperation, let alone any complicated things. Moreover, since the Queen's Thousand Autumn Festival is imminent, there are quite a lot of major events such as moving around in various mansions, if the old lady is not there, we juniors will not be able to cope with it. Please also ask the old lady to stay at home for the sake of us juniors. ”

Chen Ying was aggressive last night, and now she is sincere and sincere, Rao is Chen Lan knew that this third uncle was not a fuel-efficient lamp, but in the face of these two flawless faces, she was still cold in her heart, thinking that fortunately she had prepared early, and said that the old lady was temporarily left the house - no matter how Chen Ying kept at this time, how the Zhu family said that it was his own idea to leave the house to recuperate, in the eyes of people in the capital, it was Chen Ying who forced her mother away! Thinking of this, she glanced up at Zhu, and met the gaze cast by Zheng's mother.

Zheng's mother went out for a day yesterday, and when she came back in the evening, she only learned about these changes in the mansion, coupled with the news she brought back from the palace, it was not that she disagreed with Chen Lan's proposal to leave the mansion to recuperate. It's just that, after all, the husband and wife are in charge of the Grange industry and other things, and the other is in charge of the contacts with the Jin Wangfu and the mansions of various nobles, so she still has some doubts about Chen Lan's sister and brother serving the Zhu family to Tongzhou.

She wasn't worried about accidents on the road, but Chen Lan had been so good these days, and that kind of steady and decent was so rare that she even wondered if Chen Lan had other plans. But at this moment, seeing that Chen Lan's gaze was calm and pure, the anxiety in her heart was alleviated. After all, he is only a fourteen-year-old child, what can he do?

Although Chen Ying was respectful at this time, the words he said in his ear last night had already let the Zhu family know, just because the old marquis sent people into the Yunnan army with a word, she can no longer control this most feared concubine by suppressing it alone. Therefore, the more respectful he was, the more she felt that Chen Lan's suggestion yesterday was correct.

"You don't have to say anything."

Zhu looked at Chen Ying below, but shook his head indifferently: "I asked Imperial Doctor Liu carefully last night, so I have decided to go to recuperate for a few days, and as for the Queen's Thousand Autumn Festival, I will naturally come back." As for where to go, the emperor has just returned the grange in Tongzhou, so I'm going to go there. It is close to the capital, and it is only half a day's work to take a car. As for the family, with your two brothers, as well as your daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, and son, where is there anything that is not comprehensive? Besides, there are Lan'er and Yan'er who serve me in the past, which is more comfortable than in the capital. ”

Having said that, the brothers Chen Jiu and Chen Ying, who are familiar with Zhu's temperament, all know that the old lady has eaten the scales this time, and their faces have changed together, as for the others, some are ignorant, some are anxious, some are sneering, and some are quiet. After a few more words of persuasion, seeing that the Zhu family did not withdraw the intention of the previous discussion, Chen Ying finally felt a little tricky.

At this moment, a daughter-in-law's low voice came from outside: "Old lady, Miss Furong and Miss Muxi are still kneeling outside, as if they can't hold on......"

"It's them who want to kneel, and they live or die on their own!"

Zhu replied expressionlessly, and Zheng's mother next to her said: "At that time last night, some of the big and small girls were busy serving, and some were busy boiling medicine and decoction, and the two of them didn't know where to go to drill in the sand. Don't let them kneel anymore, just spend a meal and drive them out, so that they can set an example for others! ”

"Wait!"

Hearing the daughter-in-law outside the door agree, as if she was about to leave, Chen Lan, who had been standing silently on the side, finally opened his mouth. Glancing at Chen Ying, whose face changed slightly, she took a few steps forward and saluted the Zhu family with a gloomy face on the kang, and then whispered, "Old lady, I want to ask you for a favor." The two elder sisters have been serving in the temple for many years, and they haven't made any mistakes in the past, but they were lazy last night, but I'm afraid that it was also for another reason. The queen's Thousand Autumn Festival is approaching, and it is said that the emperor even prepared an amnesty for this purpose, and asked the old lady to forgive them, which is also a matter of benevolence. ”

Zhu frowned and was about to speak, but he saw Chen Lan facing him, his lips squirming slightly, as if he had something else to say, and he groaned slightly, and the original intention of killing chickens and monkeys immediately faded a little. Glancing at the juniors in the room, she said happily: "Well, they have also followed me for so many years, and their service is indispensable for me to go to recuperate." Go out and tell them that the board is remembered, and if anything is bad, they will be punished together! ”
