Chapter 127: A lawsuit comes to the door
Baizhu is indeed not stupid.
Su Zhaoning's words brought an inquiring tone, but Bai Shu didn't think that this was the cowardly nature of the second lady of Hou Fu who had returned to the past.
On the contrary, Baizhu believes that today's master will be even more surprising than the performance of the previous days.
If she does this well, it means that the master will still let herself be her first-class maid. It is not a first-class maid who belongs to the Marquis of Chang'an, but a first-class maid who really belongs to this master and belongs to Su Zhaoning.
Bai Shu made up his mind and replied to Su Zhaoning: "But whatever the young lady commands, the slave and maid will never dare to do it." The slave maid went to Sparrow Alley to welcome Aunt Yan back. ”
Hearing this, Su Zhaoning knew that Baizhu had truly understood his intentions.
She glanced at Poria and ordered, "Take this pot of tea and go with me to the ancestor." ”
Poria responded, put the teapot and teacup on the table on the tray, and then followed Su Zhaoning to Mrs. Hou's side.
Deep down, Poria is a little envious of Baizhu for getting a special errand. She and Baizhu are both sons of the Hou Mansion, and they are well versed in the relationship between the master and the slave in this big house.
Yes, in the past, when Su Zhaoning blindly forbeared, Poria and Baizhu were just doing the things of maids, but they didn't have the heart to treat her as the master. After all, such a master can only bring the slave and maid the same punishment and cruelty.
But after returning from the family temple, Poria was keenly aware of Su Zhaoning's changes. She recognized the Lord one step ahead of Baizhu, and also got Su Zhaoning's closeness one step first.
Poria believes that today's master will not treat him lightly. She strengthened her thoughts, and put away the envy of Baizhu.
In the courtyard of the old lady Hou of Chang'an's mansion, the atmosphere is now serious.
Su Rouhui ran in crying, but when she saw her grandmother and her father sitting on one side, both with blue faces, her crying unconsciously became much smaller.
After saluting with Mrs. Hou and Su Jingzheng, Su Rouhui didn't hear either of the two ask her why she was crying, so she could only put away her tears and sat on the chair aggrievedly.
Finally, Su Zhaoning also arrived in this courtyard.
Su Rouhui's eyes lit up, and she immediately stood up, pointed at Su Zhaoning and said, "Second sister asked the maid to beat me!" ”
Poria paused slightly, she didn't expect that these four young ladies would be so upside down.
But seeing that Su Zhaoning's face did not change, Poria was also busy stabilizing her mind, and continued to walk in with a teapot and teacup.
"Second sister, did you let the maid beat me, did you want to be the general's wife of the Hussar General's Mansion?" Su Rouhui said deliberately.
She knew that Su Zhaoning couldn't be the general's wife, so she just wanted to poke the other party's scars.
It's a pity that this scar doesn't grow on Su Zhaoning's body.
"Shut up!"
"Father." Su Rouhui turned to look at Su Jingzheng in disbelief. She never thought that she would be reprimanded by Su Jingzheng because of Su Zhaoning.
This matter is actually her own thoughts.
Where is Su Jingzheng because Su Rouhui accused Su Zhaoning of being annoyed, and he was annoyed because Su Rouhui mentioned the marriage of the hussar general.
He was full of confidence to talk to Mrs. Hou about taking a concubine, but Mrs. Hou refused.
Su Jingzheng blamed the reason on the unfulfilled marriage of the Hussar General's Mansion.
Originally, my mother had this knot, and now this dead girl specially mentioned this matter, did she do it at the behest of Xiao Huang?
Thinking of this, Su Jingzheng's face became even more ugly.
He was a little dissatisfied with Xiao Huang.
If she hadn't advocated and changed the concubine to buying slaves, Yan Taohua would not have entered the mansion.
Old Madam Hou was also in a complicated mood at this time. She didn't have much of an opinion about her second son, Na Feiyuan. After all, the heirs of the Hou Mansion are indeed very thin.
But if you want to accept a pair of sister flowers, and you choose to accept it now after the eldest grandson has been promoted for less than half a year, isn't it a handle for the official?
Mrs. Hou has long been dead of heart for Su Jingzheng's career, but she has high hopes for Su Jinyu.
Transferred back from outside Beijing, he was promoted to the envy of everyone.
How many people are staring at such a good location!
Old Madam Hou was going to beat Su Jingzheng, but Su Rouhui suddenly broke in like this. In front of her granddaughter, she couldn't lose her son's face, so she had to keep her face calm and not speak.
Su Rouhui also regarded Mrs. Hou's silence as a protection for Su Zhaoning.
She stomped her foot and said to Mrs. Hou, "Grandmother, are you protecting the second sister like this?" She is the general's wife of the Hussar General's Mansion to win glory for the Hou Mansion, if I can marry the prince of Zhou, isn't it also the face of the Hou Mansion? ”
"Shut up! Marry one by one, and don't dislike shame! Su Jingzheng is annoyed now, and when he hears his second daughter talk like this, he has a place to vent his anger.
He scolded mercilessly: "Zhaoning is asked for by someone, you can't send it upside down, and you're embarrassed to make trouble here, how can I have such a shameful daughter as you!" ”
Although Su Rouhui has always been afraid of Su Jingzheng, she has never received such heavy words. She burst into tears.
The son is not sensible, the granddaughter is not sensible, Mrs. Hou is about to hammer the chair, she raised her voice and ordered the people around her: "Go, invite the second lady to come over immediately!" ”
Xiao Huang's husband, Xiao Huang's daughter, let Xiao Huang take care of it!
Old Madam Hou didn't believe that Xiao Huang could let two concubines enter at once!
Su Zhaoning led Poria to the side and didn't speak, as if he was a transparent person. For the time being, it was ignored by Mrs. Hou and Su Jingzheng.
Even when Xiao Huang came over, he didn't look at Su Zhaoning with disgust as before.
Xiao Huang said to Mrs. Hou with red eyes: "Mother." ”
After calling this sentence, Xiao Huang's tears flowed, and she said aggrievedly: "My daughter-in-law has done her best." ”
There are many layers to this effort. It has both the meaning of the heir, and the meaning of preventing Su Jingzheng from taking a concubine.
It's equivalent to this ball, and it's kicked to Mrs. Hou again.
Old Madam Hou was about to get angry, and a person strode in outside the door.
"Jinyu, why are you here?" Now this is all caused by the second room, and Mrs. Hou doesn't want Su Jinyu to have a gap with Su Jingzheng in the future, so she is busy trying to deceive people away.
She said, "Grandmother has a headache, you go and get a doctor." ”
Su Jinyu sighed and replied to Mrs. Hou: "Grandmother doesn't have to hide it from me, Jing Zhaoyin's people have already arrived at the door, how can I hide it again?" ”
"Kyung Zhao Yin?" Old Madam Hou looked panicked and asked Su Jingzheng, "What did you do behind my back?" Accepting two sisters as concubines at one time, didn't it attract the most advice from the officials? ”
Su Jingzheng also immediately thought of the person to question. He glared at Xiao Huang and reprimanded: "Jealous woman, what else have you done, don't hurry up and say it!" ”
Xiao Huang didn't expect that today's bigger news might not be here. She whimpered, knelt down in front of Mrs. Hou, and cried and defended: "The concubine, the concubine didn't do anything." The concubine was ordered by the lord to go to the Nayan clan to return to the house, but because she was worried about Zhaoning's marriage, she retired from the lord and accepted the concubine, which would hinder the reputation of the Hou Mansion, so she handled it a little more low-key. Who knew that this Yan was so weird that he actually sent his family to complain. ”
"What do you call a little low-key?" Su Jingzheng interrupted Xiao Huang's words, looked at Su Jinyu and said, "I only learned today that she used to welcome people by forced purchase. But this matter was sued by the Yan family? ”
"Forced buy? The Marquis of Chang'an's Mansion accepts a concubine room, do you still need to force it to buy! Old Madam Hou was so angry that she hammered the table and said.
Xiao Huang also immediately climbed up the pole, crawled to the feet of Mrs. Hou, and cried: "I have already returned the deed of sale to my sister early this morning, who knows that my sister is still so ruthless." She is a member of our Su family, how can she not take care of the face of the Su family! ”
"What a slut who doesn't know what to do! Send her back! Old Madam Hou scolded angrily.
Su Jingzheng didn't expect things to develop like this, and hurriedly defended the Yan family: "It was this jealous woman who sent someone to beat Yan's parents, and threatened to buy Yan as a slave and a deed of sale!" ”
"Then you don't have to go to the government. Is there anything I can say to you, 'Can't you ask me to be the master?' "Old Madam Hou is still dissatisfied with the new Yan family.
Xiao Huang was also secretly happy when he heard this.
But soon, Xiao Huang was not happy.
I only heard Su Jinyu frown and explained: "It's not the Yan family's complaint. Jing Zhaoyin's people told me that it was a man surnamed Liu who complained that our Hou Mansion robbed the people's daughter and took his wife's room to the Hou Mansion. His wife's room is called Yan Donghua. Is that the name of the new aunt? ”
Xiao Huang breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "No." The deed of sale is clearly written, Yan Taohua. ”
Su Jingzheng's heart was raised. He knows whether the Yan family in the house is Yan Peach Blossom or Yan Donghua.
There was nowhere to vent the fire in his heart, Su Jingzheng could only scold Xiao Huang and said: "Jealous woman, you still dare to mention the deed of sale!" ”
It has been eighteen years since she married into the Marquis of Chang'an, and it has been nearly ten years since Fuzheng was a stepfamily, and this is the first time that Xiao Huang has been scolded by Su Jingzheng for being a jealous woman like this.
She made up her mind to drive Yan out of the mansion.
Xiao Huang was about to open his mouth to instigate Mrs. Hou again, when a panicked subordinate suddenly ran in the courtyard.
"Old ancestor, eldest young master, someone hit the wall at the gate of our Hou Mansion!"
"What's going on?" Old Madam Hou was so shocked that she immediately stood up.
It was the first time for the next person to see such a battle of seeking death and life, and his speech was also a little disorderly: "The man said that our Hou Mansion robbed his mother-in-law, and the old woman said that the Hou Mansion was bullying and wanted to die at the door of the Hou Mansion." Lord Jing Zhaoyin persuaded him. When Lord Jing Zhaoyin saw the old woman hit the wall, he broke in. ”
What a bunch of people these are!
The reputation of the Marquis of Chang'an!
Mrs. Hou's face turned pale and she sat back in her chair.
Su Jinyu was still sane, and he raised his voice and ordered: "Go and ask that Aunt Yan to wait in the outer hall immediately." I'm going to explain it to Lord Jing Zhaoyin. Put aside the deed of sale in advance, as long as Aunt Yan is not Yan Donghua, today's case will not be able to entangle our Hou Mansion for the time being. ”
Old Madam Hou also regained her senses, and she hurriedly urged: "Quick, immediately go and call the Yan family over and let her go directly to the outer hall." People are wrong, this is a basin of sewage! ”
"No, you can't go!" Su Jingzheng hurriedly stopped.
It's really unclear when I go.
Yesterday in his bed, it was Yan Donghua who lost his body, not Yan Taohua!
I'm going to be killed by this jealous woman now!
