Chapter 328: Catching the Adulterer
Mrs. Jiang smiled, "Mother-in-law is such a smart person, she hasn't seen the mystery yet?" The second aunt and grandmother treat us as their own people, and they speak and act casually. The mother and daughter are outsiders, so they naturally have to be polite. The uncle was transferred to the yamen with sufficient oil and water last month, and the official was promoted to a higher level, and it was not the help of the second master Meng, this is the real ...... Those vanity, let's not want it. ”
Men have a good life, and girls marrying into good families is indeed what the Jiang family needs the most at present
The old lady pursed her lips and said, "That Liu is vulgar, speaks loudly and doesn't know what to say, and looks ugly, and the Meng family even let her come out and be embarrassed." Ouch, it's still our Jiang family who will train their daughters, and it's a pity that the girl is a wise and capable housewife at first glance. ”
Mrs. Jiang said, "It's a pity that the girl didn't have a mother since she was a child, and she was taught by her mother-in-law." ”
Mrs. Jiang was happy again.
Mrs. Meng was tired, so she asked people to spread the word and eat their own dinner.
In the side room of the upper room of the main courtyard, Liu and Niu Xiu sat on the kang and whispered.
The sunset dyed the window screen red, and the halo penetrated in, giving the little face embroidered by the cow a rouge color, making the little girl more handsome and lovely.
Looking at his beloved daughter, Liu's smile became even stronger.
Niu Xiu smiled, holding a string of incense beads wrapped with gold silk in her hand, talking about her and Huang Xin being called to Fu'an Hall to kowtow to the eldest princess of Yichang.
"Sister Jingjing accompanied us, the eldest princess liked me very much, took my hand and praised me for my calm demeanor......"
The eldest princess of Yichang praised her daughter's "calm demeanor", and Liu was not happy.
Today is the first time she has entertained guests as the head of the Chengguo Mansion, and the old lady asked Grandma Meng Er to follow her and remind her of something. Although there was surprise and curiosity in the eyes of those people, and they couldn't help but laugh at her in their hearts, they were respectful on the surface.
They respect on the surface, but they are also face-saving, and they don't have a heart, which is enough.
Today's biggest harvest is that the performance of the girl has been unanimously praised, almost all the ladies and grandmothers said that she is dignified and steady, delicate and handsome, and she has also become a handkerchief with Zheng Jingjing, the third girl of Zheng Mansion.
There are not many guests here today, except for the Jiang family, which is a royal family with status, and the good reputation of the girl can be regarded as spreading in the circle of the powerful.
The Liu family knew that it was the Jiang family who asked Zheng Tingting to say good things to the eldest princess, and she accepted this favor. and Huang Xin, who always holds her daughter's hand and plays with those little girls.
After the meal, Liu found a pink soft cigarette suitable for the little girl's clothes and a pair of Nanzhu earrings in the dowry, and asked people to send them to Huang Xin and Jiang respectively.
The night was dark, and the half-moon hung high in the air.
Mengfu is very quiet.
There is a small forest not far from the second gate, and there are two wings in it, where three mothers-in-law who patrol the night and one mother-in-law who guards the second gate live.
There is a rule in the house that the two doors are locked at the end of the day. As long as the second door is locked, only the old man and the old lady have the right to let people open the lock, and there is something wrong.
After this point, even if Grandpa Guo and Shizi wanted to go back to the inner courtyard from the outer courtyard, they had to climb the wall.
The mother-in-law who was on patrol every two hours walked around the inner courtyard, and several of them opened the door and went out again.
The sound of shredded footsteps grew farther and farther away, and a few cat meows came from the wall of the outer courtyard.
It's a little similar to Huahua's cry, and people who don't know think it's the pet cat in the grandmother's yard who came out to play.
Only the mother-in-law who watched the second door knew that it was not Huahua's voice.
The mother-in-law came to the window and coughed loudly twice, and the cat meowed again.
There is a case.
She hurriedly put on her clothes, came to the second door, and lightly slammed the second door, and threw a small paper ball on the other side of the door.
She picked up the paper ball and opened it, and she didn't recognize the words inside, but saw a turtle drawn on it.
She crumpled up the paper again and ran towards the main courtyard.
The main courtyard is very close to the second gate, and it will be half an hour away.
Liu was sleeping deeply, and Qiao Lan suddenly woke her up, "Big lady, a letter is coming from outside." ”
Liu took it and sneered twice.
She was not sad about that man, but angry. Verbal promise, drawing on paper, in just one month, he violated. He dared to do this, completely ignoring himself.
Tolerate it, that paper agreement is still useless, and the blind old man specially gave her a "dark pile".
Liu said, "Let Qiaomei and Qiaojuan copy the guys over, call the two rough mothers-in-law, and then find out my men's clothes." ”
Her current personal girl came over after leaving Niu Mansion and never fought with her. Mama Liu is her nurse, not only old, but also in the way.
Qiaomei and Qiaojuan were her girls in her early years, and they were invincible in fighting with her in the Niu family, and they always followed her when they got married.
Qiao Lan and Qiao Ju both changed their faces, knowing that the eldest lady was going to fight. Qiao Lan opened the wardrobe to find men's clothes, and Qiao Ju ran to the backyard to call someone.
A quarter of an hour later, Liu, who was wearing men's power clothes with his hair coiled, walked out of the main courtyard with four women with big shoulders and round waists. All four men had things in their hands, some with ropes, some with sticks, and some with ladders.
The moonlight is like water, and the silver shines all over the ground.
A few brisk walks, and in the silence, a few strings of subtle footsteps are particularly obvious.
Before they could reach the second gate, there were several soft roars from behind, "Who, stop." ”
Then there was the sound of running, and the three mothers-in-law who were on patrol caught up.
"Big lady?"
A mother-in-law exclaimed.
"I went to the outer courtyard to find Meng Daoming for something important." Liu said without changing his face.
She saw that several mothers-in-law were very embarrassed, and said, "You just don't see it, and it won't affect you." ”
The mother-in-law guessed that the eldest lady might have to clean up. The gods want to fight, and they dare to say no?
"Oh, we didn't see anything." As she spoke, several of the mothers-in-law turned and walked to the other side.
When she came to the second gate, the doorkeeper didn't dare to come out.
Liu handed the key to the woman named Qiaomei, who opened the door and several people walked out.
The people let it go, and the night watchwoman didn't dare to pretend to be stupid anymore, and ran towards the floating house with a smoke. The old lady is old and in poor health, and the old man and the grandfather live in the front yard, so they have to report to the prince and the second lady.
Liu and the others quickly came to Cheng Guogong's outer study, she had never been here before, but she heard about the general location and architectural features.
Several people stood down at the doorway, and one person climbed up the wall with a ladder. She flipped over and opened the door again.
Liu walked into the courtyard with a light footstep.
This is a three-courtyard courtyard, and there is a towering tree planted in the yard, and the leaves of the tree are blown off by the autumn wind from time to time.
Liu stood down and looked at the small courtyard, and saw a faint light from the small window of the west room in the upper room. If you listen closely, you can hear the voice of a man and occasionally a woman.
Liu seems to go back to a few years ago, and every few days she would go to "catch the rape", sometimes at home, sometimes outside. Hit it when you catch it......
She thought that those days were gone, but she didn't expect it to start again today.
