Chapter 31: Mama Wang
At the gate of the East Okura, Tang Mei shouted at the top of her voice, calling for Su Bottle, as if something big had happened.
In fact, it was not about work, but because Tang Mei heard a very unpleasant news for her and wanted to question Su Bottle.
I still remember that when the "Rain Boy" traveled that day, there was a woman in brocade clothes, carrying a basket of winter pears, throwing it to the Su bottle, and shouting at the Su bottle, asking for a good man who looked like the Rain Boy. As a result, she yelled at her throat, and Su Bottle didn't pay attention to her.
That Miss Jinyi is the aunt and grandmother of the Meng Gate Valve of Chengfufang, Meng Su. She is like Tang Qiu in Qinghuafang, she is not very old, but she has a very high seniority. But Meng Su is no longer a girl, but a widow.
To say that the marriage of the Liang Dynasty is also early enough, it is not uncommon for women to get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen. At the age of thirteen, she married the king of Qianfeng, and the king died the following year. And she had a bad temper with the old lady, so she went back to her parents' house to live.
As the saying goes, "marry for the first time, marry again", this time she plans to find her husband by herself, and will never find a half-stupid monster like the king of Qianfeng County. It's a shame that he died early, and if you live with him for the rest of your life, you will simply be wronged by Miss Ben.
I don't know where Meng Su got the news, I heard that this son-in-law surnamed Su is quite unpopular in the Tang Mansion, and so far, he has not yet rounded up. It is estimated that it will not be long before Miss Six will be swept out of the house. At this time, she told someone that if Tang Mei didn't want this son-in-law, remember to tell her.
Why say it? Although she didn't say it explicitly, it was like a louse on a bald man's head. When these words reached Tang Mei's ears, Tang Mei was so annoyed.
"Su Baoyu, tell me clearly, when did you hook up?"
It is said that Tang Mei has a bad temper, in addition to her somewhat competitive speech, but also because her big eyes like a cow will give people the illusion of anger.
Maybe she's not angry yet, but others think she's angry.
For example, this is the case now, with staring eyes, as if he wants to play with someone. In fact, it didn't come to that point, if you change to a small-eyed girl, combined with the performance of other parts of her face, you can even say that she is speaking calmly.
In fact, Tang Mei had already heard that they met on the day of begging for rain, but Tang Mei still had to ask this on purpose, as if she wanted to deceive something. However, the change in her heart made her eyes squint unconsciously.
Seeing Tang Mei's squinting and threatening expression, Su Bei snorted coldly: "Who am I hooking up with, what does it matter to you?" β
Hearing this, Tang Mei glared, then gritted her teeth and squinted, and said hatefully: "I told you Su Baoyu, as long as you are still in the Guogong Mansion, you must know the inspection." If I find out, which wild woman you have dealings with, see how I clean you up! β
With that, she turned around and pedaled into the squeaky wrecked car. As soon as he sat in, he lifted the curtain in anger and glared: "The leg is discounted!" β
Su Bottle snorted coldly and ignored it.
Then the sixth lady returned to the governor's mansion and sat on the couch to start a daze.
To say that Miss Six also has an advantage, in addition to criticizing others, she will also do self-criticism.
Perhaps this is a common trait of people who are quick to lose their temper, and they are more likely to fall into remorse. I always think that if I hadn't been in such a hurry at that time, maybe there wouldn't have been this or that result.
She felt that she had wronged her son-in-law, it was that woman who was shameless, she should scold her, how could she teach her a lesson?
Although she felt that she had wronged her son-in-law, it was impossible for the proud Sixth Miss to apologize to the common people. But you can be kind to him, such as giving some gifts, which can be counted as making amends. But the silver satin robe she planned to send last time has not been sewn yet.
It's not that Miss Six doesn't work hard, but she hasn't been good at learning to be a female celebrity since she was a child, and her needle finger level is really average. It would be nice to be able to sew the white silk lining tightly on the robe.
But after sewing it on, it always feels awkward, and there are bulges everywhere, and the ironing is uneven. Later, it was diagnosed that the lining was too big. So it was dismantled, cut again, and sewn again.
Then she plunged into work, and every night when she came home it was almost dark, and she felt tired from the busy work of the day, so she didn't stay up late to do it. And the only two little maids left by her side, Tang Wan and Tang Ting, are too young to count on them.
It would be nice if Zhen Ping'er and Wang Jin'er were by their side. It's a pity that they still have to go back to the inner house to serve the concubine at night, and Tang Mei doesn't plan to deliberately invite outsiders to help her sew clothes, for fear that someone will ask her, who is this for?
If it was sewn for her son-in-law, she would feel ashamed. After all, she had been shouting before: Half an eye can't look down on this son-in-law, and she is planning to clean up and go out. It's only been more than half a month, and you regret it?
is also because she shouted too much before, making it known to the world, and there are no secrets in the aristocratic circle, and now even the Meng family knows about it, otherwise there would not be a Meng Sulai.
Thinking of this, Miss Six was even more annoyed.
"Tang Wan, you go home and get that silver robe."
"Whoa."
"Wait, remember to wrap it in a package so that no one can see it."
"Yes, miss."
Tang Mei raised her eyebrows: "What do you know?" β
Tang Wan felt that she had said the wrong thing, so she shrunk her shoulders and said, "Slave maid...... The slave and maid know nothing. β
Tang Mei knew what Tang Wan wanted to say, and even the little maid could see that Miss Six didn't want others to know that she was sewing clothes for her son-in-law. felt a little embarrassed in her heart, but Tang Mei didn't embarrass Tang Wan, so she let the maid do something.
Tang Ting was sitting in the gatehouse, and Tang Mei was left alone in the empty Meige Hall.
The huge courtyard, the empty attic, and the sound of "woo" wind were heard from time to time, as if someone was crying, which made Tang Mei feel scared.
She pretended to be calm and must hold on, especially when someone came in to do something, Miss Six looked solemn and serious. From time to time, I have to give some work instructions, or ask some questions as if I was finding faults. For example, how well are the rules memorized? Then you can recite the third one to me.
The people who came to do the errand left, and the room seemed even more deserted, and suddenly heard a "bang", which frightened Miss Six's face pale.
The voice came from behind, and she stared in horror, and turned her head to look at it with a stiff neck, and saw that the windows were in disrepair and had been blown off by the wind.
β¦β¦
The Governor's Mansion is very similar to Miss Six's house, both of which are three-entry courtyards, but the Governor's Mansion is much larger than Miss Six's house.
Especially in the third temple, there was originally a main hall, and there were ear rooms on both sides of the main hall. Even if it is the ear room, there are two rooms, inside and outside, which is much larger than the back cover room in the courtyard of Miss Six's house.
But for some reason, the attic will be built in the second courtyard, and the noisy ones will steal the limelight from the main hall. And the two wings are also in the second courtyard. This strange pattern, I really don't know which dynasty is imitating the architecture. Maybe it was a strange idea from a feng shui half-fairy to the Tang Ancestor.
In the huge governor's mansion, only Tang Mei and two little maids came to do things, although from time to time someone would come to do things, but most of the time it was just the three of them, and she always felt a little panicked. Especially when I think of the name of "Murderous House", it makes people feel chills down their spines.
Supervisor Tang had just cleared out a group of people, and there was a shortage in the warehouse, so Tang Mei thought, it would be better to add two more people to the Governor's Mansion. And then she thought of the old grandmother who had been taking care of her since she was an infant, Wang Rong.
Although Mama is over the age of six, Mama is a person who has practiced martial arts, and her physique is quite strong. When the old lady heard that the young lady was going to reactivate her, she was so excited that she cried out with excitement when she set up a stall selling fruit on the roadside, and the fruit was gone, so she trotted all the way to see her Mei'er. Running quite fast, giving people the illusion of walking without their feet getting wet and treading in the wind.
Imagine a little gray-haired old lady running down a straight road, running out for three streets without slowing down, which can't help but be breathtaking.
"Oops! Missββ! My good young ladyββ, Mama is here! β
As soon as Mama Wang came to the door of the Mei Pavilion, she suddenly couldn't walk, knelt on the steps, screamed, and cried and shouted:
"Missββ, old slave doesn't want to leave you anymore. After a few months of separation, the old slave feels that life is better than death! Miss, please, don't let the old slave go. Let the old slave serve the young lady until the day when the old slave can't moveββ! Oopsββ, my Mei'er! β
"Mama Wang, get up quickly." Seeing the old lady like this, Miss Six's eyes were red and she walked out of the door and reached out to hold it.
In order to serve Princess Fengyang and Tang Mei, Mama Wang never married, and often proudly said that she was still perfect.
Maybe it's because "my son doesn't like my mother to be ugly", Tang Mei, who has long regarded Mama Wang as half a mother, does not dislike this ugly old woman.
I don't know what Princess Fengyang thought at the beginning, she chose to marry the palace maid, and chose her to be such an ugly person. He is not tall and a little rickety. A pair of small short lap legs, but with a pair of long arms that are above the knee. The towering hooked nose feels like it's about to tear the skin on the nose. A thin layer of cheek, clinging to her facial bones, makes her eyes extraordinarily thief. Seeing her is like seeing a vicious witch.
When she saw her for the first time, Su Bei seemed to be able to understand why Princess Fan had blasted her out of the Guogong Mansion.
"Miss, you can't just put up with it. I want the old slave to say, while the surname Fan is seriously ill, we should hurry up and make her angry to death! Otherwise, when she dies herself, the young lady's breath will never come out again. β
Mama Wang said a few words cruelly, and suddenly became sad: "My good young lady, the old slave is the person who knows the young lady best in the world, our young lady can't hold her breath, otherwise she will be sick like Her Royal Highness the Princess." If the young lady doesn't let out her anger, the old slave will also go and scold the surnamed Fan to her face! β
It is worth mentioning that when Princess Fengyang was there in the past, Concubine Fan was just a side concubine. At that time, Mama Wang was the first evil slave around Princess Fengyang, and often performed family law on behalf of the princess. Whenever anyone dares to be inferior to the princess, the king evil slave will scold when he opens his mouth, and beat him when he raises his hand.
