Chapter 192: Refusal

After the third lady finished speaking, she glanced at the second wife.

The second wife immediately sneered, "The second master can't go to see that little prostitute again!" "It's already inseparable, wouldn't it add fuel to the fire if the second master persuaded him? When the time comes, it's strange that the second master is willing!

However, the old lady sighed: "It's really not possible, and this is the only way." It's just that I can't let the second ......" After a moment of silence, the old lady's eager gaze fell on the third lady.

The third lady noticed it, and immediately frowned slightly, obviously reluctantly. After thinking about it, the third wife said, "Hey, according to me, people in our family can't show up." In case people see the gossip mind, it is not beautiful. ”

The old lady was about to say something, but she swallowed it back. The third wife's words are also reasonable, if they are seen, won't there be another incident? "It's just, but you can't just leave it alone, right? At that moment, the old lady sank her face: "You should think about it, what is the way." ”

"Send someone to ask what Dow wants." Seeing this, Gu Wanyin had to sigh and let out a sigh. This matter concerns the entire Zhou family, and every day of delay will be one more day of risk. However, according to what she thought, the best way was to let the second master plead guilty. Coupled with the old lady's plea, it is not too bad.

But how dare she say this? Once she said it, not to mention that the second wife was unhappy, she only gloated and fell into the ground, and even the old lady only thought that she was selfish and gave up the second room for the safety of the long house.

Therefore, this is resolutely unspeakable.

"What if Dow wants to enter the house?" The second wife's eyes were unusually sharp, and now when she heard people talk about Tao, she seemed to be excited.

"Anything else can be considered." Gu Wanyin sighed. Avoiding the second wife's gaze, he only looked at the old lady. persuaded softly: "If it really doesn't work, Brother Qing will let her take it away." After all, the second uncle is not without heirs. "Among the people in the third room of the Zhou family, only the second room has two sons-in-law. It's time to be satisfied.

Compared with the old lady's hesitation, the second lady breathed a sigh of relief. For the second wife, such an ending is the best - Dow takes the child away from home, that is, it will never affect her life again. It's just that she didn't think about whether the second master would agree;

The old lady frowned and thought for a while, and nodded: "Since that's the case." Then send someone to ask. Daughter-in-law Jing, you and your third aunt discuss this matter. ”

Gu Wanyin and the third wife had to respond. There is no way, the Zhou family has a small population. This matter cannot be done by the second wife herself. They have to do it for them.

The old lady looked at the second lady again and persuaded softly: "You have been tired recently, so don't meddle in this matter." That's right. Simply you take a break for a while, and Zhongfeng will also hand over to Jing's daughter-in-law to take care of you for a while. With the help of the third daughter-in-law, there will always be no mistakes. ”

The second wife was shocked and angry. It's just that Dow doesn't let her interfere in this matter, and she is lazy to meddle. But why should she hand over the feed? The old lady said nicely, it was an escrow, but don't forget that she was also an escrow when she was a housekeeper! Escrow? Only when you can get it back is called escrow! What if you can't get it back?

Furious. The second wife only felt a burst of bitterness in her heart.

Looking at the reluctance on the second wife's face, the old lady's face gradually became a little unbearable. The second wife made it clear that she was unwilling to hand it over. His eyes sank. The old lady was about to speak again. But I heard Gu Wanyin say slowly: "Old lady, I am young and ignorant, how can I take charge of the feed?" Besides, there are so many things going on at home now, I'm afraid it won't be good if something goes wrong. It's better to let the second aunt take care of it first, and when this time is over, I will take over, and then the third aunt will help, so it is not easy to make mistakes. ”

Gu Wanyin rejected the old lady's proposal so easily!

Not to mention that the old lady and the second wife were surprised, even the third wife was also stunned! The third wife knows better than anyone that Gu Wanyin's ultimate goal in suppressing the second wife is to take over Zhongyu! But now......

Frowning and looking at Gu Wanyin, the third lady was a little shaken in her heart: Could it be that she pressed the wrong treasure? Gu Wanyin, she is not worth her investment at all?

However, in the face of the surprised gazes of the three people, Gu Wanyin did not move at all, calm as a mountain.

The old lady glanced at Gu Wanyin deeply, and then nodded: "Since you think so, then forget it." Then he said: "The second daughter-in-law, you are also tired for a day, go and rest, and when the second daughter comes back, I will talk about him." The third daughter-in-law, you send your second sister-in-law back. But he didn't mention Gu Wanyin at all.

Gu Wanyin didn't move, and watched the second and third wives go out, and then said softly: "The old lady is annoyed with me?" ”

"I'm curious, why did you reject me?" The old lady snorted softly, her face a little gloomy. Obviously not very happy, if it weren't for Gu Wanyin's sake, the eldest daughter-in-law of the long house, and now that such a thing has happened, how could the old lady say such a thing? But Gu Wanyin was good, but she refused! This is called the old lady's face to put in?

Gu Wanyin didn't look up, just lowered her head and replied respectfully: "The second aunt is now a sad time, and she suddenly asked her to hand over the middle feed, and she will inevitably feel uncomfortable in her heart." Coupled with the matter of Dow, if you get into the tip of the horns and want to be crooked, it will be more than worth the loss. The more times like this, the more she can't be idle. When people are idle, they tend to think about everything......"

"So, are you doing it for your second aunt?" The old lady raised her eyebrows, her eyes were extremely sharp, and she fell on Gu Wanyin, as if she wanted to see through her whole person. However, with such a high-sounding reason, it is no wonder that the old lady does not believe it.

Don't say that the old lady doesn't believe it, even Gu Wanyin herself feels a little hypocritical. At that moment, Gu Wanyin continued: "It's not because of this, it's more important because I discussed it with the prince of the world, and I want to build three porridge sheds outside the mansion tomorrow to do some good deeds and accumulate yin virtue." ”

The old lady was stunned when she heard this: "Build a porridge shed? Why do you have to build a porridge shed at this time? ”

"The prince said that the people outside the city who are near the river have been flooded with crops and lost their homes, and they have all gone to the city to make a living; Gu Wanyin narrated and described the situations that Zhou Ruijing said one by one: "Although the imperial court plans to resettle, after all, there are too many procedures, and it will not be able to find a suitable place for a while. We can't help where we live, but we can afford a thin porridge. Old lady, do you say? Even if the strength of the person is light, it can always reduce some of the burden on the imperial court. ”

"You guys have a good idea." The old lady's face had completely softened, and her gaze gradually softened: "It's just that you don't have much money, if you open a three-mouthed porridge shed-" If you give half of it and can't continue, it will be a bit embarrassing. When the time comes, all good things will become bad things, but they will fall into a laughing stock.

"The old lady forgot? Some time ago, my second aunt just handed over three years of money to me, and I didn't deposit this money in the bank. Now it's where it comes in handy. Gu Wanyin smiled slightly, her eyes were bright, and she couldn't say the brightness: "I have roughly calculated, more than three thousand taels of silver, even if it is boiling porridge day and night, three cauldrons, how can it support more than ten days." At that time, the imperial court should also have a countermeasure. Besides, the prince reminded me that we don't need to use all rice to make porridge at all, and we can add some coarse grains and vegetables, so that we can last a few more days. "Besides, there are not many homeless people at the moment, so there is no need to boil day and night.

The old lady listened to her thoughtful words, and her heart was extremely approving, and she couldn't help but look at her eyes with a little approval: "Okay, it's hard for you to think so thoughtfully." In this way, since it is to do good deeds for our Zhou family, you go to your second aunt and add 1,000 taels of silver from the official. If I don't have enough money, I've got some private room hereβ€”"

Gu Wanyin pursed her lips and smiled, looking at the old lady and couldn't help but smile: "The prince said that the old lady is the most kind-hearted, and it is true." ”

The old lady sighed: "This year's New Year is not good, and it has suffered those ordinary people." Those of us who are capable, can help out, what does it matter if we give some silver? Besides, accumulate more yin virtue, and the Bodhisattva will always be able to bless our Zhou family in the future. "The Zhou family has always been not prosperous, perhaps because they caused too many killings when they fought for their ancestors in the early years. Moreover, the king of Zhennan has been on the frontier for many years, where is the old lady not worried? Vegetarian eating fasting and reciting Buddha, isn't it also for these?

"Since it's a good deed, you can't be sloppy." The old lady thought for a moment and then instructed. At this time, the old lady was not angry at all about Gu Wanyin's refusal, she only felt that Gu Wanyin was a kind-hearted and delicate-minded person. - Come to think of it, since you want to do good deeds, where is there any other effort to manage the middle feed? It is indeed a virtuous person to be able to covet power so rashly and control his greed.

By mistake, Gu Wanyin didn't expect that a small move would make the old lady have a great change in her opinion.

"There is no need to rush to manage this matter, and after this period of time, it is not too late to deal with it." The old lady said comfortingly: "As you said, let your second aunt do something, and save her from thinking nonsense." ”

After finishing speaking, he suddenly remembered the matter of entering the palace, so he smiled again: "Since you want to open a porridge shed, then ask for a few more days, and when the queen mother is happy, I will also invite you to come down for you." You and Jing'er have been married for so long, and your mother-in-law is not in Beijing, and I am a fool who forgot about this matter. ”

In fact, the old lady deliberately did not ask for Gu Wanyin's order at first. The old lady even thought that if she married Zhou Ruijing a flat wife a day later, she would let the other one ask for an order, which would also prevent Gu Wanyin from sitting big. It's just that now in order to express her praise for Gu Wanyin, the old lady can't care about that much.

After all, the matter of marrying a flat wife has to be considered in the long run. But now by Zhou Ruijing's side, he really needs a virtuous helper. And Gu Wanyin, in addition to her status is not high enough, other aspects are also suitable.
