Chapter 143 Action

The Dragon Boat Festival is about to give a festival gift, and after the Dragon Boat Festival, the princess and the princess will go back to the border.

Seeing the princess at the old lady on this day, Gu Wanyin quietly glanced over. The princess nodded, but her face was silent.

The third lady went back to her parents' house yesterday and hasn't come back yet, so she won't come today.

The second wife was the last to arrive, and although it was morning, she was tired and didn't have much energy. After greeting the old lady, he sat aside and said no more.

Gu Wanyin glanced at the old lady and opened her mouth with a smile: "Second aunt, it just so happens that I want to look for you again, I wanted to go over to look for you later, but since I have met it now, why don't I say it here?" ”

The second wife glanced at her, squeezed out a slight smile and pretended to be kind: "Since there is something, then just say it quickly, and don't delay you." I'll have to see how the preparations are going, maybe not in the house. ”

"It's embarrassing to say." Gu Wanyin pursed her lips shyly, hesitated for a moment before asking, "Seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming day by day, and the prince's friends and official friends have sent Boxing gifts, I want to ask the second aunt if the Boxing Festival in our room is ready?" If it's ready, I'll send someone to get itβ€”"

Before he finished speaking, he heard the second wife open her mouth inexplicably: "What festival?" ”

Not only was the second lady confused, but the old lady also looked at it, with the same look of doubt. Gu Wanyin suddenly said this, how could they not be confused? The rituals in their respective houses are naturally prepared by themselves in their respective houses, how can they come to ask the second wife?

Gu Wanyin was also stunned, blinked her eyes and looked confused: "Second aunt didn't prepare for us?" After thinking about it, I couldn't help but be anxious: "What can I do about this?" Time is running out. ”

The second wife was still looking at her inexplicably, obviously not coming back to her senses.

But the princess opened her mouth, frowned and asked, "Who told you that the festival was prepared by your second aunt?" I don't think you're prepared these days. I thought you had something to do, so I didn't remind you, but how could you think that? ”

The old lady also opened her mouth: "What the hell is going on, why didn't I understand." Why does this Jing daughter-in-law want to find the second daughter-in-law for a ritual? ”

The princess smiled awkwardly: "This daughter-in-law doesn't know either." After speaking, he hurriedly looked at Gu Wanyin: "Tell me, what's going on?" ”

"I heard the prince say that every year the prince of the world is handed over to the official." Gu Wanyin pursed her lips and opened her mouth, and glanced around uneasily: "In the past, I was at home, and my father's money was also handed over to the official and kept by my grandmother, and my grandmother would prepare these for my father." I thought that since the prince handed over the money, the second aunt would naturally do it for us for the festival or something this year-"

"Your family has already been separated, so naturally it should be like this, but we haven't separated yet;. Naturally, the situation is different! After hearing this, the princess opened her mouth with a smile: "You should also ask me first!" Why don't you apologize to your second aunt soon? There was already some complaint in his voice.

Gu Wanyin lowered her head, and was about to speak slightly aggrieved at the second wife. The old lady interjected in time. frowned and said, "Why am I still a little confused." What year, what festival for your second aunt to prepare? ”

The second wife had already come back to her senses, and her face suddenly changed, and she preemptively said without waiting for the princess to speak: "It's not a big deal." Since that's it, that's it. ”

The second wife obviously wants to hide from the world. It's just, where can she escape so easily?

Gu Wan lowered her head. smiled slightly, but his voice was extremely aggrieved: "It's because I didn't think it well and made the second aunt laugh." ”

The old lady looked at the princess, straightened her expression, and said solemnly: "What the hell is going on?" Don't you want to say it soon? Have I ever been dead? This house is going to hide it from me? ”

The princess couldn't hide it, so she had to say: "It's Wanyin, that kid doesn't know the rules too much, and thinks that Jing'er's year is handed over to the official, so the sophistication of the people is prepared by the official." Their family is different from ours, they have divided the family, so his father's family is handed over to the official, and everything is handled by the old lady of their family. Wanyin thought it was the same. I came to ask her second aunt. ”

"Nian Feng?" The old lady narrowed her eyes and glanced at the second wife.

The second wife was frightened for a while, and knew that she couldn't hide it. As soon as his mind turned, he hurriedly said, "Yes, old lady." Didn't Ruijing receive two annual servitudes? An official position, a knighthood. Old lady, you will use the title of Ruijing in the official year, and it has been like this all these years. ”

The second wife deliberately said that this matter was the order of the old lady, in order to shirk her own responsibility.

While speaking, the second wife had even more secret hatred in her heartβ€”even with it, her face was not good when she looked at Gu Wanyin. It's just that Gu Wanyin still lowered her head, looking aggrieved but apologetic.

When the old lady heard this, she only raised her eyebrows: "When did I say that I would let Jing'er hand over the Nian Feng in the official?" ”

Hearing this, Gu Wanyin understood in her heart that the old lady had really forgotten about this matter. At the moment, she didn't speak, just stayed out of the matter. She started this matter, but she shouldn't sing the next scene.

When the princess saw the old lady asking, she was about to speak, but she was caught off guard but was eagerly preempted by the second lady: "The old lady forgot?" When Ruijing returned to Beijing when he was a child, you said that he was a small child, where did he use so much money? It was conveniently stored in the official. Over the years, it has been like this, and it has not changed. ”

The princess took a closer look at the second wife, and saw that the sweat on the second wife's face was bursting with sweat, and she couldn't help but smile secretly, and her heart was happy. Over the years, they have been worried about the two children here, and they have repeatedly tolerated the second wife. The second wife is becoming more and more arrogant, but now she is good. Finally let out a bad breath.

After listening to the second wife's defense, the old lady was not relieved, but sneered: "It turns out that this is the case." His eyes were firmly fixed on the second wife, and his eyes became sharper and sharper. But I remember when I handed over the housekeeper key to you, I also said that in the future, Jing'er's money will be handed over to Jing'er herself! When I was a child, I didn't spend so much, so I naturally didn't need money. What about later, after Jing'er became an official? ”

The second wife's face changed and changed, and a layer of sweat appeared densely on her forehead, and she opened her mouth, but she couldn't say anything to justify;

Gu Wanyin quietly handed the princess a color, and the princess understood, so she opened her mouth to forgive the second wife: "Don't be angry, the old lady, the second brother and sister may have forgotten, anyway, the money is also stored in the official, and it is not the second brother and sister's expense, so it is not a big deal." ”

When the second wife heard this, she suddenly came back to her senses and hurriedly squeezed out a smile: "Yes, old lady, all this money is stored in the official." The daughter-in-law really forgot about this matter, and in the future, Ruijing and his wife will take care of the money by themselvesβ€”β€”"

"How do you convince the people? It's more than 1,000 taels of silver a year, and I forgot it! The old lady snorted coldly, stared at the second lady for a moment, and suddenly waved her hand again and let go of her face, although she was angry, she was no longer angry: "That's it, you have a lot of things to do in a day, and the housekeeper is really a trivial matter, just remember it later." ”

The old lady is thinking about the hard work of the second wife's housekeeper, and she doesn't want to pursue it any further.

The second wife listened to it in her ears, and she was happy in her heart, and the tension in her body suddenly relaxed, and then she felt that the ** on her body was as uncomfortable as if she had just been fished out of the water, and the strength in her body was even more drained. The second wife only felt that she had escaped death, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "Thank you for the kindness of the old lady, the daughter-in-law will definitely be more careful in the future-"

"But since it is in the official, I will give all the silver for the past three years to Jing's daughter-in-law." The old lady smiled, looked at Gu Wanyin and ordered, "Daughter-in-law Jing, if you are free these days, I will ask your second aunt for it." As for the Boxing ceremony you mentioned, even if you are in a hurry now, you can get through it with your mother's help. If you want me to say this, you don't need to think about it, although you just got married and don't know anything, but you should ask more and learn more, otherwise it will be like today's situation, but what should you do? Although this festival is not worth anything, it is related to Jing'er's face, how to be careless? ”

No one expected that the old lady would suddenly come like this, and the peaks and loops turned around, which suddenly made several people a little stunned.

The second wife's eyes widened, and she opened her mouth to say "Where do I have the money to return it to them", but at the last moment, she hurriedly swallowed it raw. Since Fang just said that he was in the official, if he said that he had no money, the old lady would definitely be suspicious, and she would not be able to say it when the time came...... Thinking of such a result, the second wife shuddered, and hurriedly swallowed the words back, but her heart choked badly.

Gu Wanyin looked up at the old lady in shock, and opened her mouth timidly: "Old lady, since there is an official in the government, I don't think there is-"

The old lady glanced at her, and the corners of her lips seemed to be smiling, "How can you do it, otherwise how can you convince the public?" Since it is Jing'er's money, Jing'er should get it. Besides, I've only been talking about it for three years, and it's a loss for you. ”

Gu Wanyin didn't know what to say, so she had to thank the old lady, and then glanced at the second lady guiltily. It seems that I feel a little sorry for the second wife.

In fact, to be honest, she really didn't think that the old lady would let the second wife spit out the money. She was already very satisfied to be able to get the money in the future, but she didn't expect that there would be an unexpected joy in the end.

It's just that, looking at the old lady's appearance, she must have understood what tricks the old lady played on her and the princess. But she didn't intend to hide it from the old lady.

The second wife only fell on her back in anger. I almost couldn't restrain myself from pulling my face down. It's just that now not only can't she pull her face down, but she has to apologize to the princess and Gu Wanyin with a smile: "It's because I didn't do things well and made my sister-in-law and Ruijing suffer." The second wife deliberately omitted Gu Wanyin.

Gu Wanyin didn't mind at all - the money was originally Zhou Ruijing's, and it had nothing to do with her. Besides, it doesn't matter if the second wife apologizes or not, what matters is the result, isn't it?;
