Chapter 40: Conspiracy (1)
The wind oil essence produced by the system is full of power, and the small carriage is full of that refreshing classic smell, which is simply unforgettable.
Yang Zhaoquan pretended to be unintentional and waved Qin Shumei's handkerchief to make the smell more obvious.
"That's what you're using to make yourself like this?"
Qin Shumei was embarrassed all of a sudden, she reached out to grab the handkerchief from Yang Zhaoquan's hand, but he dodged it lightly, not only did she not grab the "evidence", but she was almost led into his arms.
"Put away the triumphant smile on your face!" couldn't fight this belly, Qin Shumei simply didn't grab it.
"Haven't you heard of 'moving with affection and knowing with reason'? It's not enough to just stand on the ground, it has to be two-pronged. ”
"Today's incident is originally Dong's wrong, but if I am blindly aggressive, it will make the old lady have a heart for it, and showing weakness is the most effective way to get twice the result with half the effort."
She is an outsider, what confidence does she have in Xu Mansion like the Criticism Fighting Conference, standing on the commanding heights of morality, and ignoring the daughter-in-law of other people's own families?
If he is too domineering, it seems that Mrs. Xu does not discipline her daughter-in-law properly, but she will lose the face of the Xu Mansion.
Now that she is crying, the nature has become delicate. Outside, the Dong family bullied distinguished guests and did not know the etiquette; Inside, Dong deceived his sister-in-law and had a bad heart.
No matter what aspect you use to clean up the Dong family, it is a famous teacher with strong and straightforward words.
Yang Zhao was born in the palace, and he was most annoyed by these deceptions. But seeing her blinking her red eyes, Lele hehe, I just felt that she was like a child who succeeded in mischievous, smiling sly and naughty.
"I'm just carving insects! Don't you know, the real acting school can even control the flow of tears. ”
Crying is also very technical, can the one who cries with two tubes of big snot dragging under his nostrils be compared with the tears that are full of eyelashes and will not fall?
Yang Zhaoquan didn't understand what "acting school" meant, and he was not interested in controlling the flow of tears. He only stretched out his head and instructed Yanchang to bring the ointment to dissolve swelling and decongestion, opened the medicine box in Qin Shumei's popular science voice, dipped the ointment with his fingertips, and rubbed it around her eyes.
The paste was delicate, cold on the skin, and the man's fingertips were covered with thin calluses, gently touching the tender flesh around her eyes, and Qin Shumei immediately became dumb.
"What are these trivial things of the Xu family, they are not worthy of your crying like this." The carriage was dimly lit, but Yang Zhaoquan's voice was extremely gentle.
Yanji leaned against the wall of the carriage and heard it clearly, as soon as Yang Zhaoquan's words fell, he ate enough dog food, got his wish, and immediately drove his horse to follow Yanchang, and shared what he had just heard.
"Brother Yanchang, have you seen it? Lang Jun saw the lady's tears just now, and his face was longer than that of a horse. ”
Yanchang nodded, when Lang Jun came out of the Xu Mansion, his face was really not good-looking, and even the expressions of the people in the Xu family were very unnatural.
Yan Ji snorted twice, shook his head with a wicked smile: "I'm afraid that in Lang Jun's heart, except for him, there is no one worthy of tears for the lady." ”
"Woe comes from the mouth."
Yan Fu turned around and scolded him, the corners of his mouth turned back, and motioned to Yan Ji to pay attention to the Xu Mansion guards who followed behind.
The age difference is too big, Yanfu is not only a colleague in the team, but also half an elder, Yanji respects this eldest brother very much, and was interrupted by him, and immediately stopped the topic and stopped gossiping.
"Brother Yanfu, why did you say that Lang Jun ordered to let this hour go, how difficult it is to walk at night, even if you are in a hurry, it is not bad for this hour or three, and you can walk faster during the day."
Yanfu is tired, this kid is good anywhere, but he can't keep his mouth idle.
"During the day, you take the guards of the Xu Mansion to wander around the streets of Ningshi, you really think that we have a long life. General Xu lent his guards to us because the road to Liangzhou was difficult and dangerous, and there were many bandits. He opened the city gate with his connections to help us get out of the city as quickly as possible, so as not to attract people's eyes. ”
"The sooner you get to your destination, the more vigilant you should be, but you can't stop talking about it, hurting Lang Jun's wife and yourself!" Yanfu is serious.
Yanji nodded and obediently silenced.
Although there were many people in the convoy, it was orderly, the sound of horses' hooves and wheels formed a strange white noise, Qin Shumei listened to the city gate close behind him, his heart gradually let go, and he let out a murmur half-asleep.
"I don't know how the old lady will punish Dong."
The Dong family, who is being missed by her, is bitter and bitter.
Although her little thought did not cause any bad effect in the end, she was still punished for kneeling in the old lady's courtyard for one night, and was fined another year of silver.
The old lady's original words are still in my ears: "You are still a good person, but now it seems that a woman like you, how to serve Dingkun well, and give birth to a child in the future, it is better to take the old body with you." ”
The power of this sentence is comparable to ten big slaps. Dong's family fell into an ice cave, panicking and uncontrollable, this time, the results of his business in front of his mother-in-law were ruined.
Now in the Xu family, even the servants who come and go are secretly ridiculed, Mrs. Dong has fallen into the eyes of money, and even the sister-in-law's family property and dowry are also in the eyes.
Dong gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, hated the old lady who looked down on him with eccentricity, and hated Qin Shumei even more for taking the mouse, if she hadn't been involved, how would she have fallen into this situation.
Perhaps because of the support of hatred, the Dong family, who knelt until the dawn of the day, did not feel the slightest sleep. She was carried back to the house by four maids, and when she entered the door, she saw her husband who also had two black circles under his eyes.
Xu Dingkun's nostrils were as open as a bull's nose, exhaling and exhaling. Because of the foolish things done by his daughter-in-law, he was first trained by his father for half a night, and then called by his mother to die for a long time.
How kind General Xu usually is, how irritable he is when he is angry. The rebuke between the guns with sticks, foreheads, is a gun and a stick in the physical sense.
The old man, who still insists on getting up early and exercising in the morning every day, is also a tiger when he dances with a stick. The eldest son, who was crying and begging, wanted to come forward and pull away from his father's unilateral beating, but he was not only thrown away, but also suffered a few times in the chaos - judging from the strength, it should have been deliberate by the old man.
Xu Dingkun was beaten to the point that his father cried and called his mother, and later his mother shouted that he came, but the imaginary consolation did not come, and he almost staged a mixed doubles.
He was full of anger, and when he saw the culprit Dong, he was even more angry.
"Did I say that I wanted the third sister to be a concubine? You won't ask me if you don't have money? What a crooked calculation to yourself! Now it's okay, it's your favorite! Stupid woman! I'm going to be beaten this time! ”
The more Xu Dingkun said, the more angry he became, if it weren't for the fact that he had just been beaten and his legs were still hot, he really wanted to step forward and kick her feet to relieve his anger.
Facing her husband, Dong lost her previous panic. She and Xu Dingkun have been married for a long time, and she knows that he has soft ears and no opinions, and he is a paper tiger who is talking nonsense.
"Husband and wife are one, how can I do such a thing as harming the master!"
Ignoring her numb legs, she sat on her knees and showed the unfinished play from the previous banquet from beginning to end.
"I'm all here for the second room! I want to continue the bloodline for the lord and supplement the family! It's all that clever words... Qin Shumei, I misinterpreted my naked heart, and coaxed the old lady and sister-in-law to lose their souls, which led to such a bitter fruit! ”
No one hindered her play, Dong acted heartily, the more she cried, the smoother she became, and she almost couldn't hold back at the end, and almost scolded out loud.
