CHAPTER IX

Mother Fang scolded the stupid mother Ma half to death in her heart--she wants to give the girl a dismount, so you have to take a look at the occasion first!

At this time, she was helpless, so Fang's mother had to step forward and knock on the door in person.

Yan Bo, who was guarding the door, had already heard the movement outside the door, so he took his eyes to see Cui Qiao, who was sitting in the gatehouse with his feet crossed.

Cui Qiao was the maid in the wife's room - that being said, she spent much more time in front of Mama than in front of her wife.

Cui Qiaoyuan was still snorting melon seeds, waiting to see the jokes of the thirteen girls-whether the thirteen girls asked someone to come up and knock on the door, or silently knocked on the open side door to come in, in short, it would be a joke to do it - but she didn't want the voice of the person outside the door to sound like Mother Wu beside the old lady.

Cui Qiao was startled, hurriedly threw away the melon seeds in her hand, and while calling the little maid to go in to report the news, she hurriedly waved her hand and signaled Yan Bo to open the door.

Yan Bo looked at Cui Qiao, but he deliberately moved slowly towards the gate - people are always like this, no matter how arrogant the superior is, the lower person always feels that he can bear it, but if he is just a person with the same status as himself who "acts" pretending to be a tiger, then he may not be able to bear it.

"Oh, my Uncle Yan, you should hurry up!" Cui Qiao was so anxious that she jumped to her feet.

Yan Bo deliberately said loudly: "Didn't you just say that you should strictly guard the door at night, even if the girl comes back, you can't open the door lightly, and you want to ask the girl to come in through the side door?" ”

- Well, word for word, the words floated out of the crack in the door.

Cuiqiao's face suddenly darkened.

Shanniang, who was waiting outside the door, had a little bit of a plan in her heart.

Mother Wu glanced at Shanniang as if she was watching the excitement, while pondering, how to tell the old lady about this when she went back.

It's not that she's upset for the thirteen girls, but she thinks that the old lady will be relieved when she hears this—tell you that you don't know what to do, and refuse to hug my thighs!

Mother Wu looked at it, Shanniang was a little person who looked like a person, how could she not understand the meaning? Fortunately, after only a while, the door was opened, and then many people turned out from behind the shadow wall, and everyone carried lanterns or something in their hands to shine on the light, so that the inside of the originally black hole in the door of the fifth room suddenly brightened.

Shanniang didn't say much, only glanced at the brick carving on the shadow wall, then turned her head and whispered to Wufu Liu'an to stay and watch people unload their luggage, and only took the nurse, Sanhe and Wu's mother straight to the main hall behind the shadow wall.

To Shanniang's surprise, the mother horse didn't greet them in the main hall. Shanniang couldn't help but shake her head secretly. She really doesn't understand, how can such a mallet be able to be powerful in the fifth room for so many years?! If she wants to fix her, it's just a matter of lifting her little finger!

But after thinking about it again, Shanniang understood. The so-called "name is not right", Ma's mother is so good as "coercing the world and ordering the princes", how can others be servants, unless it is her father and mother-in-law, no one in this family can really cure this "nine thousand years old" of the fox and the tiger.

When she arrived in the hall, Shan Niang pretended to be tired and sat down on the Taishi chair in front of the hall, only bowing her head and not saying a word.

Mother Wu couldn't help but wrinkle her eyebrows when she saw it. Although she really wanted to retreat now, leaving all the problems to the thirteenth girl, but she was ordered by the old lady to send the girl home, and now that no one came to hand it over, she really didn't want to leave without saying anything.

So Mother Wu frowned and asked, "Can the fifth master be at home?" ”

The next mother cautiously replied: "The master went out to visit a friend, and said that he would not come back for a few days." ”

Good news. Mother Wu nodded secretly, and asked again, "What about Mrs.?" ”

"My wife is not good, I have taken medicine at this time, I am afraid that she has already slept."

That's great! Mother Wu nodded again, and said, "In this case, who is in charge of things at home?" ”

As he spoke, he saw Ma's mother and a young woman hurrying over from the second gate.

The woman looked about twenty years old, with beautiful eyebrows, a peach-colored jacket lined with a slender figure, and almost no one needed to introduce her, and Shanniang guessed that this should be her father's favorite concubine, Aunt Ma.

It's a pity that this Aunt Ma doesn't look like a grandmother at all.

Shanniang couldn't help but fly her eyebrows. The experience of later generations tells her that a beautiful woman, in general, is more likely to be flattered in front of men. Although Shanniang doesn't want to conflict with this, looking at the frame of Ma's mother and daughter today, I'm afraid that this conflict will be sooner or later.

And if there is her father in the middle, Shanniang thinks that it is probably a little troublesome......

Just when Shan Niang was thinking about all kinds of small thoughts in her heart, she didn't expect that Ma's mother didn't come forward to talk, but it was Aunt Ma who stepped forward to salute Wu's mother first.

Mother Wu smiled in surprise: "I don't know who this is?" ”

Ma's mother hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to introduce: "This is the person in our master's house." ”

Suddenly, the smile on Wu's mother's face froze.

Shanniang quickly lowered her head and hid the smile on her lips.

Mrs. Meng is the kind of old-fashioned person, and she pays the most attention to the rules of everyone. In the eyes of the family, there can be someone in the master's room, and he can even spoil people to the sky, but when he goes out of the room, this person can't be regarded as a person at all, only a thing. Not to mention going out to meet guests, even the servants in the family who feel some status and status are unwilling to talk directly to an aunt......

I don't know what the chaos has become in these five rooms, but I actually called an aunt to come out and talked directly to the person sent by the old lady!

Shanniang suddenly felt that there was nothing to trouble about these things at home, and she was confident that with her ability, she would not let these people step on her head.

I saw that Mother Wu accepted the smile on her face, looked at Mother Ma and said lightly: "Mother is also an old man, but your master is not good, there is no one in this family who can call the shots for a while, so you should take care of things, how can you be so negligent and let out the people in the man's room to meet people?" Let the fifth master know, how can this face be passable? ”

Before Ma's mother could answer, Aunt Ma couldn't stand it anymore, covered her face and whimpered, turned around and ran back the way she came.

Here, Shanniang couldn't help but support her forehead with her hands and secretly curled the corners of her lips.

Ma's mother is old, but she can bend and stretch, but she doesn't have the previous scene, and she saluted Wu's mother with a smile on her face: "Mom taught me a lesson." It turned out that my wife was not feeling well, and my aunt and I were waiting over there, so we came over together in a hurry. It's a snub to my mother. ”

- Okay, it's like I didn't see Shanniang.

So Shanniang, who was unwilling to be lonely, covered her lips and coughed lightly.

Mother Wu really didn't want to be a gunman for Shanniang, but there were some things that she should say, if she didn't say it, it would be her fault to spread it, so she sank her face and shouted to Mother Ma: "What?!" Didn't you see your girls too? Don't go and give your girls a salute! ”

Shanniang said: Very satisfied.

Ma's mother glanced at Shanniang coldly, in the end, it was still in the past, and she saluted her aggrievedly, but Shanniang just didn't see it, covered her mouth and coughed lightly twice.

Mother Wu was waiting to seize an opportunity to retreat, and at this time immediately said to Mother Ma: "The girl is not good, why don't you hurry up and wait for the girl to rest!" He turned back to Shan Niang and saluted: "It's not too early, the girl is resting, and the old slave has to go back to the old lady." ”

Shanniang smiled "reluctantly": "There is Lao's mother." Please tell the old lady a child, just say that I have arrived home safely, the family is fine, please don't remember me, when I am well, I will go to the old lady to say goodbye. ”

The two responded a few more words, and Shanniang asked someone to send Mother Wu out.

Mother Wu's figure had just disappeared behind the shadow wall, and Mother Ma's face sank, and she only stood there with her eyes down and didn't say a word.

Shanniang covered her lips and coughed lightly, turned back to the nurse and said, "Mother is not good, I just came back, why should I go and ask my mother for peace." Then he turned back and instructed Ma's mother, "Please lead the way." ”

Ma's mother frowned. Although this Shanniang is fourteen years old this year, because of her late development, she looks at such a thin and soft person, and she feels very bullied, and she doesn't want to be so arrogant when she was in the West Garden, but now that she has been driven back, she is still so arrogant and does not know how to restrain!

Mama's face sank and she said, "Mrs. is asleep." ”

"Really?" Shanniang smiled, "Mom means that she doesn't need to ask her wife, so that her mother can know that she doesn't have time to see me?" Without waiting for Ma's mother to answer, Shanniang seemed to be afraid that she wouldn't understand the hidden needles in her words, and said, "Or does Mom think that Mom can be the master of the wife?" ”

Mama was stabbed and shrunk. Although it is true that she can be the lord of the wife, it is something that can be done and cannot be said. She glanced at Shanniang fiercely, thinking about the long future, so she snorted coldly and said, "In this case, the girl will come with me." ”

But Shanniang sat there and didn't move.

Ma's mother frowned again, and was just about to open her mouth to urge, only to hear Shanniang say again: "Sanhe, the rules of the house, you all learned it when you entered the house, right?" ”

Sanhe said respectfully: "I have learned everything." ”

"So, you carry it for me, how should I talk to the master." Shanniang said.

So, Sanhe really memorized the government rules.

Shanniang raised her eyes, looked at Ma's mother with a smile and said, "I don't even have a 'please' word." I know, I say that my mother is old, and it is inevitable that there will be omissions, and I don't know, but I don't know the rules when I am still a mother. ”

- Do you want to get off the horse? Who wouldn't!

Ma's mother gritted her teeth in anger, and was just about to open her mouth to fight against it regardless of it, when she heard Shanniang laugh again: "It turns out that my mother also has a toothache, and I heard it humming just now." The so-called 'toothache is not a disease, it hurts to kill', and my mother's disease should be treated as soon as possible. I heard that the mothers in the etiquette department at home know how to treat this kind of disease best, and when they have time, they may wish to discuss with those mothers what kind of treatment methods they have. ”

As she spoke, Shanniang didn't even look at Mama, so she held the nurse's hand and calmly beat Mama's side.

When she came to the door of the hall, she glanced at the maids standing on her left and right, and said, "Mrs. is not good, you should be more careful when you errand and errand." Although I am not a guest, but Mother Wu is always a guest, and she still comes on behalf of the old lady, and she doesn't even have a cup of tea, which is somewhat unusual. So saying, he helped the nurse and went straight to the corner gate that led to the inner courtyard.

Everyone in the hall couldn't help but look at Mama Ma.

Ma's mother only felt a fire in her heart, and her face was also red and white. She stomped her feet, caught up with Shanniang in three or two steps, and just took a breath and was about to speak again, when she heard Shanniang block her words again: "Mom, don't be angry, I know that this house has always been taken care of by my mother, but there is no credit, there is always hard work." As for me, this person is lazy by nature, and he doesn't do anything to my head, but in fact, I don't bother to care. Mom, write this down first, and you'll know my temper later. By the way, how is my yard cleaned up? Although the time is tight for half a day, it shouldn't be difficult to clean up the room I used to live in. ”

Ma's mother smiled for a while, and said: "Girl, forgive me, the girl has been away from home for several years, and the master of the yard where she lived has already given it to someone, and now she can only trouble the girl to choose a yard again." I don't know what the girl likes, so the old slave had to clean up the guest house first. ”

Shanniang paused and said with a smile: "Oh? My dad gave my yard to someone? To whom? ”

"Aunt Ma." Ma's mother said maliciously.

Is that so?! If that's the case, these five masters are really unreliable!

Of course, if that's the case.

Shanniang snorted coldly in her heart, but she bypassed the topic and asked again, "What is the illness there, Mrs.?" What medicine to take? What did the doctor say? ”

Ma's mother was there for a long time, but she didn't say why, only said: "Zuo is just an old problem, the girl just needs to take care of her own illness, and my wife has me left and right." ”

"You?" Shanniang tilted her head and smiled, "No matter how hard my mother works, it's just my mother, I'm my mother's daughter, and it is my daughter's obligation to fulfill filial piety, Mom, you said, but so?" ”

At this time, I had reached the door of the upper room. Shanniang vaguely remembered that the west room in the upper room was the embroidery room arranged by the fifth wife. At this time, the embroidery room was brightly lit, and the fifth wife, who was obviously "sick", was "sick" in the embroidery room.

"Looks like my mother hasn't slept yet."

Looking at Ma's mother, Shanniang tilted her head and smiled again, smiling very childishly.
