Chapter 255: Convincing People with Virtue (I)

Mama Shu went back to the room, sat on the kang with her buttocks, and began to sulk.

When Shu Bo saw this, he asked her, "What's wrong with you?" Who you off? Today is a good day for big * milk, although there are only two tables of wine in front of them, there are several official wives, all of whom are decent. The whole family has been rewarded, who is not happy to smile? If you put on a straight face, you will look at the big * milk when you see it, won't you hate you again? ”

Mama Shu said angrily: "I think I know that I am a disgusting person, but there are some things, I want to tell me not to see it, so it is not that you only know how to listen to her every day and do things, and refuse to refute a word, in the long run, it will only make her more arrogant This family business is not surnamed Gu?" ”

Shu Bo frowned: "Your words are becoming more and more unlike, what are you bothered about?" For no reason, I scolded when I entered the door"

Mama Shu glared at him, thought about it, and then lowered her voice a little, and said: "Big * milk is a big day today, reasoning, it's also a big day, to set up two tables of wine to entertain guests, it's nothing, it's just that the uncle is not at home, she just calls friends like this, there are male guests in front of her, there is no taboo, what does this look like?" Besides, how many days has the uncle been gone? She invited the old lady of her in-laws to come over and live, dare to love that this house is her family's fault? ”

Shu Bo saw that she didn't look like her, so he scolded: "This is confused, and the male and female guests are also sitting separately, the male guests are either the brothers of the big * milk, or cousins, the second young master of the Luo family is a friend of the uncle, and the second uncle of the Gu family is helping to entertain, and the big * milk is just asking for a good voice through the door, what is there to taboo?" I see that the big * are very well-behaved, where is it like you say? Besides, the old lady of the in-laws came to live, and the uncle spoke before he left, so you don't know what kind of mouth is going on? ”

Mama Shu said angrily: "Uncle will say something like that, it is the uncle who knows the courtesy, and the uncle is filial, but the big * milk just pushed the boat down the river and immediately took the person over, it was too big, right?" I've inquired, the old lady of the in-laws has enough luggage, and two girls, two mothers-in-law and two long entourages followed. What kind of truth is this? It's only been a few days? It's only been ten days since the big * milk entered the door, and whose new daughter-in-law only entered the door, and brought her mother-in-law's old grandmother to live in her mother-in-law's house for a long time? It's not that the Gu family doesn't have a house."

Shu Bo glanced at his wife: "The Gu family's house in the capital is rented, and the old lady has only one nephew in the next room, Uncle Hengzhi is not at home, and the eldest * grandmother is also bored at home alone, so take your grandmother over to live, what's not to do?" Even if you brought a few maids and servants, you don't need to pay for them to raise them. I think it's strange, you seem to have a good temper these two days, no matter what the big * milk says, what you do, you always have to complain for a long time, the reason is so ridiculous, what are you crazy about? ”

"Who's crazy?" Mama Shu glanced at her husband, "I'm just afraid that I will continue to let the big * milk go down, and when the uncle comes back, this family will already have the surname of the big * milk."

Shu Bo couldn't help laughing: "I said you are crazy, and you still refuse to admit it?" Big * milk and uncle are now the same surname, this family is the husband and wife, the uncle's things, is the big * milk, big * milk things, naturally is the uncle's. In the final analysis, you still regard the big * milk as an outsider, forgetting that she is already the uncle's wife, and the husband and wife are one. Think about it, is it possible that you still think of yourself as an outsider to me? ”

"Fart" Mama Shu took a bite of Uncle Shu, "Can I be the same as big * milk?" I've been married to you for decades, and the babies have given birth to seven or eight for you, and there are four people who are standing, and you still treat me as an outsider, and my mother is not finished with you."

"That's it." Shu Bo finished laughing, and his expression returned to solemnity, "Since you know that you and I are a family, you shouldn't treat Da * Milk as an outsider." She is now the head of the house, the master of you and me, put away all your little wariness. The uncle personally chose the big * milk as his wife, since you can trust him, you should also trust the uncle. ”

Mama Shu was stunned, and looked away a little uncomfortably: "It's not that I can't trust the uncle, it's really ...... Who called the big * grandmother's surname Gu? Since she and the second lady are in the same family, even if there is some discord at the moment, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not speak for the second lady in the future. I'm really not worried, in case the uncle rehabilitates Mrs. Tai and the eldest master in the future, and the second lady asks for the big * nipple, she is an elder, and she comes out of the family, can the big * milk still say no? Isn't that uncle going to suffer? Speaking of this, she lowered her voice again, and said to her husband with a worried face: "I have been watching carefully in the past few days, and the big * milk is indeed acting with some scheming, not as sincere as the uncle said. For example, she transferred the duties of her family, and unknowingly, she placed the Ma family sent by the second lady into an important position; Also, after the old lady came over yesterday, the mother-in-law around her gave everyone in our family a purse, and even the little girl who sprinkled the sweep had five dollars of silver, not to mention the people in the inner courtyard. Isn't this a clear attempt to buy people's hearts? Today's big * grandmother celebrated her birthday, and she gave another reward, and in these two days alone, she spent more than fifty taels of silver. It's not like that if you have money, it's clear that you want to use the uncle's money to win over the uncle's people, how can we not be careful? ”

Shu Bo sighed with a little headache: "I said that you are too careful, but you still don't believe it." Big * Grandma celebrates her birthday today, everything is simple, and how big is it? You've only set up two tables of wine, what else are you going to do? It's too simple, and the uncle has no face. Besides, this silver was originally from the old lady of the in-laws, but it was just borrowed from our family's place and people, where did you spend the uncle's silver? Besides, the big * milk is the uncle's wife, so it costs the uncle's money, which is also justified, and it is not our turn to be the mouths of the subordinates. ”

Mama Shu glared at him: "You said it lightly, uncle, I have watched him grow up since he was a child, and he has not been so attentive to his own son, and now that he has finally married a wife, how can I watch him suffer?" ”

Shu Bo said angrily: "Why did the uncle suffer?" You forgot? There are few people in this family who are the old people around the uncle, either from Shangshufu or bought from outside, even if the big * milk wants to win them over, it is for the sake of the uncle. Even the errand of Ma Youcai's father and son is not as simple as you think, you are already confused, but the uncle understands your hard work for many years, rewards you for your decency, and asks you to help the housekeeper. Now that the big * milk has entered the door, you should give up the power, not only do you not let it, but you also have to ramble here, I see you, just thinking about this power, for fear that the big * milk will take away, so you will pick a stone in the egg"

Mama Shu was furious: "Who are you and me? As long as the uncle is good, and our family is also well, I don't have any rights? As long as the big * milk is really the uncle, I naturally won't always be wary of her, but now I watch her step by step to insert her own people everywhere in the house, but we, the uncle's people, are squeezed aside by her, so how can I put my mind at ease? ”

Shu Bo was startled by her voice, and hurriedly covered her mouth: "You are really crazy, what is this place?" It's so loud that I'm not afraid to be heard."

Mama Shu broke away from his hand and reacted, feeling a little annoyed in her heart, but she still had the upper hand in her strong psychology, glaring at her husband and arguing with him. At this time, an icy voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Miss Hexiang, why do you have time to come to the backyard?" ”

Hexiang's voice sounded not far away: "It turned out to be Sister Binglan." The big * grandmother has something to find Manager Shu and Mama Shu, let me ask him to talk. Don't you know if Manager Shu and Mama Shu can be at home? ”

Bing Lan said: "I saw Mama enter the house just now, but I don't know if this is here, I'll take a look for you?" ”

Shu Bo hurriedly got off the kang, walked to the window and responded with a smile: "Here, here, what do you have to say?" Let's get there. ”

Hexiang smiled and saluted him: "The big * grandmother said that she had a treat today, and she suddenly remembered one thing, and wanted to discuss it with Manager Shu and Mama Shu before deciding what to do, so she invited the two of you to come over after dinner." I took this errand on purpose, and I planned to stop by the kitchen to see if there were any ingredients for supper. Today, the old lady was a little drunk after eating, so she went to bed early, fearing that she would wake up hungry at night. ”

Mama Shu pursed her lips secretly, Shu Bo glared at her, and responded with a smile: "We'll go over after dinner." There should still be some red and green beans in the kitchen, so let them make some porridge. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Shu, for reminding me." Hexiang curtsied and went with a smile.

When Mama Shu saw her walking away, she whispered behind her back: "Sneaky, you actually came to eavesdrop on our family, but there is no such rule" Shu Bo was so anxious that he stomped his feet: "What are you doing here?" He smiled at Binglan again: "Your aunt has drunk too much today and is confused, don't be like her." ”

Bing Lan said with a sad face: "What is my aunt angry about?" Big * milk is such a kind person, generous, treat us well, the uncle likes it, there is nothing bad about a few girls around her, what are the shortcomings of the aunt? ”

When Mama Shu saw her like this, she felt a little hated in her heart: "Do you think she treats you sincerely?" Be careful, when she has gathered all the people in the family, it is time to deal with the people who are waiting around you uncle."

Shu Bo frowned when he heard this: "What are you talking about with your niece Binglan?" ”

Bing Lan said: "Auntie also thinks too badly about the big * milk." Big * milk treats you so politely, where do you complain so much? Uncle will not be happy if he knows. Without further ado, the wrestler left.

Shu Bo turned back to teach his wife: "Look, even Binglan is more sensible than you at a young age. You said you ......" Mama Shu interrupted him: "If you don't believe me, just wait and see." When the eldest * grandmother puts the person sent by the second lady in the position of the big housekeeper, let you pack up your baggage and leave, and tells the uncle that she wants us to go home and enjoy the blessings, you will know that you regret it."

Wen Yi listened to Hexiang's return, just smiled slightly, nodded and said, "I know, you go down, don't mention it to anyone." ”

Hexiang wanted to speak and stopped, but finally couldn't help it: "Miss, the slave maid thinks...... The rest of the Shu family is reasonable, only Mama Shu is confused, but her weight in front of her uncle is different from others, so you still have to be careful. ”

"I know. I know what to do. Wen Yi just sent the lotus fragrance down, remembering her grandmother's reminder yesterday, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Grandmother is really an old man who is transparent about the world, and her opinion of Mama Shu is not bad at all. Wen Yi felt that it would be biased to say that Mama Shu was all for selfishness, but what she was most afraid of was that Mama Shu was not entirely selfish. If it is for selfish selfishness, then as long as it is profitable, it will not be difficult for people to accept it, but if Mama Shu is wary of herself for the sake of Liu Dongxing, then it will be difficult to do. Because in this way, Mama Shu is just "confused", not "wrong", and she wants her to stop "making mistakes", which is very different from preventing her from "making mistakes". The former needs to be carefully appeased, while the latter only needs to cut through the mess quickly.

After thinking about it, Wen Yi still decided to stay still and continue to follow her plan. Mama Shu just misunderstood herself, as long as she is worthy of her heart and fair, she will always change her opinion one day, even if there is never that day, as long as the people around her agree with her, no matter how much criticism she has, what is she afraid of?

After dinner, it was already dark. Shu Bo took his wife to the upper room of the main courtyard and greeted him outside the door. Wen Yi smiled and asked Qiu Guo to open the curtain to welcome their husband and wife in, Shu Bo found that Wen Yi was sitting in the main hall, with four large screens in front of him, outside the screen, from the eldest son Shu Ping, to the youngest son Shu An, and the two daughters Da Niu and the second Niu were all there, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, secretly complaining that his wife was presumptuous. Mama Shu even showed a sneer, only saying that Wen Yi was about to liquidate, and secretly slandered her in her heart that this action came too early, and she was not afraid of gossip.

Wen Yi still smiled kindly, asked people to move a small pestle, asked him and his wife to sit down, and then said: "Today, because I have a birthday, I invited guests to the house to set up wine, and in the chaos, I found that there are still many unsatisfactory things at home. It's good on weekdays, but when there are many things, they will be revealed, so I thought about adjusting the manpower at home again to see if it would be better, so I invited Uncle Shu and Mama over. ”

Shu Bo hesitated a little: "Banquet today...... The little one just thinks ...... Manpower may be a little insufficient, if the big * milk thinks that there are few people in the family, it is better to call someone to come and add a few people. ”

Mama Shu simply pointed to her children: "Add people, add people, the big * grandmother called several children in our family, I don't know what to do?" The expression on his face almost didn't say "what are you trying to do?"

Wen Yi smiled slightly: "I'm looking for them." I saw that I had a treat today, and the outer courtyard invited male guests, and even my mother's brother's little servant helped to wait, and it was indeed a lack of manpower, so I had to ask Shu Bo to find a reliable person to come and add two clever little servants. And then there's the inner courtyard. Although I have a few girls, but with the original ice blue purple gold in the inner courtyard and the later lotus heart, there are only seven people in total, but I have to cover all the work from the house to the sprinkling and cleaning in the yard, which is really tiring. And the people around my grandmother are not from our family, so it is not good to borrow them often. Therefore, I want to pick a few more girls from the family, one is to help Qiuguo take care of housekeeping, and the other is to add someone to the sewing room. I thought, the most reliable people in the family are your family, it just so happens that your two daughters are working rough in the outer courtyard, but they are overkill, so it is better to transfer to the inner courtyard and buy a little girl to do rough work. Your youngest son, Brother An, is also nine years old, and he understands when he speaks, so he might as well be a little guy who runs errands in the inner and outer courtyards, I don't know what the two of you think? ”

Shu Bo and Shu Mama were stunned.
