Chapter 205: There is an explanation
"The old slave doesn't dare, the old slave doesn't dare." Mama Li said continuously.
Yun took people to Tingsong Garden, entered the courtyard, and came to the door of the main house, and through the door, they could feel the warmth in the house.
Yun didn't knock on the door, he pushed the door directly and entered, and saw that there was a warm stove burning in the room.
Someone suddenly broke in, and Xiumei was surprised.
After seeing that it was the Yun family, Xiumei got up to greet her: "The slave has seen the lady." ”
"Where did this charcoal come from?" Yun's face was a little dark.
"It was sent by Mrs. Yuan." Xiumei replied unhurriedly.
Hearing this answer, Mama Li, who came with the Yun family, was surprised.
How could it be sent by Mrs. Yuan? Mrs. Yuan is the lord of Jingmin, how can she send a bag of charcoal when she gives something away?
Mama Li looked at the Yun family, hoping that Madame would not easily believe the words of this little girl, this charcoal was definitely not given by Mrs. Yuan!
"Mrs. Yuan sent it? Why did she send charcoal to Ruo'er? Yun asked.
"A few days ago, Miss sent two bottles of loquat paste to Mrs. Yuan, and Mrs. Yuan may have ordered someone to send a bag of charcoal over in order to thank Miss for her loquat paste." Xiumei explained.
"Why did Mrs. Yuan give Ruo'er charcoal as a gift?" Yun asked.
A noble lady like Mrs. Yuan, how can she give charcoal when giving gifts? It's kind of weird.
Wei Ruo came out of the back room and gave the Yun family an answer: "If it was in the past, it would definitely not be, but my mother also knows about the situation in Taizhou Mansion recently, charcoal fire is rare, especially this silver bone charcoal, Mrs. Yuan knows this situation, so she specially gave me some pain." ”
Silver bone charcoal?
Hearing Wei Ruo's words, the Yun clan noticed that the charcoal burning in Wei Ruo's house was different from ordinary charcoal, there was no black smoke, not to mention, and there was no smell when burning, the charcoal fire in the stove was half burned, it was still complete, it was not scattered, and it seemed to be more able to withstand burning than ordinary charcoal.
In this case, it makes perfect sense. Silver bone charcoal is not like other charcoal, even if it is given as a gift.
Mama Li also looked at the charcoal fire burning in the stove and the charcoal in the cage next to her for a while, and wanted to find out the evidence that this was not silver bone charcoal but ordinary charcoal, but it didn't look like ordinary charcoal, ordinary charcoal was not so regular porcelain.
Wouldn't this make what the eldest lady said reasonable?
After thinking for a while, Yun asked Wei Ruo, "How much did Mrs. Yuan give you?" ”
Wei Ruo pointed to a small bag in the corner of the wall and said, "Well, it's all there, and it is estimated that it will be burned out in two days." ”
This is part of what she brought back, and Wei Ruo asked Xiumei to put it away.
Seeing that there were only so many in total, the Yun clan naturally had no choice but to ask for it.
Then Yun asked: "Since you have received the things sent by Mrs. Yuan, why don't you talk to the family, is it possible that you are afraid that the family will share your charcoal?" ”
The daughter got charcoal but didn't tell herself, Yun was a little unhappy in her heart, no matter how much, she always wanted to say it, she didn't know that the rest of the family was freezing now, and her house was warm, but watching other people be frozen, is it reasonable?
She said that they wouldn't share her, but she wouldn't be too cold.
Wei Ruo replied unhurriedly: "Daughter, I am afraid that my mother will be unhappy, and Mrs. Yuan is because of the loquat ointment to send me back the silver bone charcoal, but because of the loquat ointment, I have already had several disputes with my mother, and I am afraid that I will have to quarrel with my mother again after this matter is mentioned again." I know that my mother has been troubled by many trivial matters recently, and I don't want to cause trouble for my mother anymore. ”
Yun Shi was dumbfounded, and after a long pause, he said, "I'm so angry that I sell loquat ointment, if you treat others like you treat Mrs. Yuan, how can I say that yours is not?" ”
After speaking, the Yun clan was afraid that this topic would quarrel again, so he waved his hand again and said, "That's it, don't mention this matter." I thought you had a way to buy charcoal, so I came here to look for you, and since it was given to Mrs. Yuan, then I have nothing to ask. ”
After that, the Yun family led Mama Li and the others away.
On the way back, Yun's face was ugly, and Mama Li followed behind tremblingly.
When they arrived at Cangyun Garden, the Yun family asked Mama Li: "You slave!" ”
"Madame is angry, the old slave is not mistaken, there is indeed a charcoal fire burning in the eldest lady's room." Mama Li hurriedly defended herself.
"You're not wrong this time. If I let me know that you have a grudge against the previous incident and deliberately target Ruo'er, I will not be able to spare you! Yun warned.
Although she is a little dissatisfied with her eldest daughter, she still knows who is the master and who is the servant, and she will never allow an old servant to bully her daughter!
"Slaves and maids don't dare, and Madame doesn't dare to borrow 10,000 guts from slaves and maids!" Mama Li hurriedly said.
"Alright, you can go down." Now that he knew what was going on, the Yun family didn't have the mood and energy to continue listening to Mama Li's chatter.
"Yes, the old slave is retired."
Mama Li withdrew from Cangyun Garden in a gloomy manner.
In Wangmei Garden, Wei Qingwan was waiting for Mama Li to return, and when she came back, Wei Qingwan asked, "How is Mama?" ”
Mama Li replied with a look of annoyance: "The silver bone charcoal there was given by Mrs. Yuan, and Mrs. left after asking a few words." ”
"Gifted by Mrs. Yuan? Didn't the mother ask my sister why she didn't share the charcoal fire with the family? Wei Qingwan asked.
"The eldest lady is very eloquent, saying that the charcoal is a return gift from Mrs. Yuan's loquat ointment before, and not saying it to Mrs. Yuan makes Mrs. angry when she mentions loquat ointment." Mama Li said through gritted teeth.
If Wei Qingruo said Mama Li didn't believe it, if Wei Qing was really so filial, he wouldn't have contradicted Mrs. three times or twice before.
That's clearly her excuse!
But Mrs. He believes that she can't help it!
Wei Qingwan's face sank and sank, although she didn't expect this matter to do anything to Wei Qingruo, but at least it could deepen the contradiction between Wei Qingruo and her mother.
She was forced to have such thoughts, Wei Qingruo pressed step by step, hurt her again and again, ruined her reputation, and now she is just trying to protect her position as much as possible when she has to do it.
It's a pity that her ability is limited, and she can't compare to the cunning Wei Qingruo, and she has failed to fight back several times.
"Mama, I regret it now, I didn't learn some skills and coping strategies a few years ago, so that if Wei Qing uses some means, I don't know how to protect myself." Wei Qingwan muttered.
Mama Li sighed: "Miss, it's no wonder you, then Wei Qingruo must have learned a lot of tricks when he dealt with all kinds of small people in the countryside in the previous years, and Miss, you were raised in the deep boudoir, loving father and mother, brothers, friends and brothers, I haven't seen anything vicious, where is her opponent." ”
