Chapter 36 Old Lady Shi
Looking at Yu'er and Lu'er's unproductive appearance, Dongxue sneered very shamelessly, Qiu Tang glanced at the old lady's inner room, glared at Dongxue who was laughing, and said: "What are you crazy about, if this is heard by the old lady, but you can see, why are you getting smaller and smaller day by day, what are you thinking about with the little girls, what are they going through in battle, and they should be afraid." "Winter Snowman is kind, and what he said is to the point.
Qiu Tang didn't mean to say Yu'er and Lu'er, but he felt embarrassed when he looked at their little family, and he knew that he was impatient just now when Dong Xue said it, and he looked back at the old lady's inner room, although he didn't hear anything, but his heart was still a pang, and then he looked at Yu'er Lu'er's two aggrieved looks, and she was a little embarrassed, she actually treated these two girls well, but since she had expressed her displeasure just now, she didn't want to pull down her face and say something soft, so she only held her breath and didn't say anything.
Xia Hua had something in her heart, and when she saw that they were stiff at the door, she hurriedly whispered and said: "Okay, okay, it's not important to talk about it, so it's on the go, and it's looked at, the joke is a trivial matter, and the delay is a big thing, Dongxue, you take Yu'er to clean up outside, Qiu Tang goes to the big kitchen to take care of Chunliu and the mothers in the kitchen, breakfast is a little late, Lu'er and I stay here." ”
The four of them were convinced of Xia Hua, and after saying that Xia Hua was the first person among the old lady's girls, she should have spoken and arranged things, so after listening to her instructions, everyone put away the muttering in their hearts, and they all went their separate ways.
After a few girls left, Mother Shi quickly combed the old lady's hair and was about to put on jewelry for the old lady, not wanting to be stopped by the old lady, knowing that the old lady was in a hurry, so she put down the jewelry in her hand, bent down and lowered her head to the old lady's ear and whispered: "The news from outside is here, Mrs. Gu's family is not like this time, it seems that the in-laws are forcing the aunt to accept the marriage between the prince and the cousin of the Mu family, Our aunt was afraid that my uncle would respond in a hurry this time, so she hurried back and thought about marrying a young lady from her own house. ”
In fact, Mother Shi wanted to say that Mrs. Gu wanted to pick the second miss, but thinking about the old lady's attitude towards the second miss, she had to swallow this, this moldy head is not easy to touch, unless the old lady asks in person, otherwise she is absolutely unwilling to take the initiative to mention it.
Sure enough, as soon as she said this, the old lady snorted and said: "What do you have to hide for her, I don't know her thoughts, isn't it just to fall in love with the second girl, I think she is short-sighted, I saw the benefits in front of me, the girl who is not angry, I wasted my past teachings, married into the Ningxi Hou Mansion for so many years, and I can't hold an old lady who has no knowledge, this uncle has also lasted for so many years, how can I suddenly let go of my mouth at this time, I really don't understand, what is good about this Mu family, but he is a waiter from the second grade." There was an indescribable contempt in that tone.
The old lady was suddenly angry, and the frightened Mother Shi didn't dare to come out at all, hating that she was a shadow, you must know that the old lady's scolding is not something that they can hear, even if she has a face, she is still a slave, how to listen to the old lady's words of such a gaffe, if the old lady looks at her one day, these are her sins, and she is secretly glad that she was careful not to say that Mrs. Gu intends to marry the second lady, as for what the old lady finally knows as long as she doesn't say it, It's none of your business.
Maybe the old lady also knows that she has lost her temper, these rich old ladies pay the most attention to their face and demeanor, as soon as the words came out, she regretted it very much, so she looked at Mother Shi who was standing in the rules through the bronze mirror, and saw that she honestly lowered her head, but she didn't hear it, this is good, she believes in this old man who has been with her for many years, so she coughed lightly, and said lightly: "Miss Lin's life is also not good!" She is the most good news and not bad news, and I'm also afraid that she will deliberately hide something that she doesn't want me to know, so I let you inquire more, you did a good job, but forget about it today, don't let people know. ”
Mother Shi knew that the old lady was beating her, so that she should not tell anyone about her behavior, after all, the mother was not worried about her daughter and spying on the situation of her daughter's house, but it was a bit shameful, she did things for the old lady, how could she not know the old lady's selfishness, otherwise it would be in vain for her to manage the news exchanges everywhere for the old lady for many years, so she hurriedly said without a trace: "The old lady is not at ease, the slave is provincial, and besides, there is no one in the world whose old lady is so worried about her daughter who has been married for many years, Mrs. Lin also knows that you are the most worried, so she has something to hide from you, and you must relax your heart for Mrs. Lin's heart. ”
These words sounded pleasant, the old lady ironed in her heart, and felt that she was not worried about her daughter's family, so she secretly inquired first, and there was nothing to find fault with, so she thought about it, and sighed: "I do this, and I don't care if she understands it or not, I gave birth to such a daughter as her, when I was a child, Jin Zunyu was pampered, I was afraid that she was arrogant, and she couldn't pull her face to complain to me, so I didn't have a way to find out one or two in private, and I thought about how to help her, alas, children are debts!" ”
The old lady's words, Mother Shi still believes it, when Mrs. Gu is at home, not only the old lady is spoiled, but the old grandfather is also very pampered, even the uncle and the second master are all going along with this youngest sister, now even if they are married to each other, the habits they have developed over the years cannot be changed all at once, and the uncle and the second master can also cling to Mrs. Lin if there is anything.
However, Mother Shi knows that after so many years, it is still a little different, and now Grandpa Guo is also the uncle, and he has been a little angry with Mrs. Lin since the accident of the original grandmother, alas, in fact, Grandpa Guo is not only separated from Mrs. Lin, but even the old lady is a little estranged, and it is needless to say with the second master, the second grandmother and the eldest lady in the family have long consumed the old brotherhood between the grandfather and the second master.
The old lady's words are not easy to pick up, Mother Shi can only stand aside as an inaudible and think about something she has or not, she is the old lady's henchman, how can she not know the old lady's mind, and the old lady in the Ningxi Hou Mansion is naturally willing, but what she wants is not the eldest daughter of the family, Miss Shi Er, but the eldest lady in the second room, Shi Fangxin, the eldest lady of the second room, it just so happens that the eldest lady's age is only two years old with the young master, and the two are very well matched.
However, Shi's mother thinks that this matter is very mysterious, after all, the second master is just a Dingyuan general from the third grade, how can the eldest daughter of his family be worthy of the prince of the Hou Mansion, although the son is his own cousin young master, but he can't force the old lady of the Hou Mansion in Ningxi to agree to this too far-fetched marriage, probably the old lady also thinks that this matter is too difficult to do, so she wants to understand the inside story of the Hou Mansion, after all, the old lady is also a good person, how not to understand her daughter's thoughts, in order not to marry the girl of the Mu family, She will definitely choose the eldest daughter of the grandfather of the country, and the eldest daughter of the second master's family is extremely difficult to consider.
It is for this reason that the old lady did not hesitate to make people feel ashamed, and sent her, a confidant, to do this, and now the news is coming, but unfortunately there is nothing specific and useful, you must know that these news can be guessed without asking them, the old lady wants to know the attitude of the Hou Ye most, but who is the Hou Ye, that is the person who kills the courage, and the most is trusted by the emperor, not to mention the placement of people around him, even if it is flies and mosquitoes, don't want to fly closer.
The old lady naturally understood the joints that Mother Shi could communicate, and she didn't answer Mother Shi, nor did she care too much, but thought about it for a while, and said: "Don't worry about the others, I understand Miss Lin's thoughts, but I also have my own thoughts, and I can't tell her clearly for a while, and now for the sake of my daughter, this wicked person can only be an old woman like me." Although she said this very vaguely, she knew that Mother Shi could understand.
Mother Shi knew that the old lady would not say this for no reason, so she hurriedly persuaded her: "The old lady is really, our aunt is the most caring, where will I not understand the old lady's heart for her, even if I can't understand it for a while, but I will definitely be grateful in the future, the loving mother in this world should generally be like the old lady, and the aunt has been smart since she was a child, where will she not understand." ”
The old lady who said this ironed in her heart, and for a while swept away the worries that she had begun to receive her daughter's letter, and the idea in her heart was also decided, so she said firmly: "Okay, this time will also be the time to have a meal and say goodbye, don't be busy with these things first, and when you look at people and disperse, you will go to the second girl, I haven't seen her for a long time, she is weak, this hot day makes her little family drag her side sick body to see me, the old woman, I really don't bear it, I am old, and I don't want to move, you go to see her on my behalf." , you have to have a number in your mind about what to say. ”
Mother Shi sighed secretly when she heard this, knowing that the old lady had made up her mind to stop Mrs. Gu's idea, but she was afraid that Mrs. Gu would be separated from herself, so she thought that she would start with the second lady first, maybe she could arrange it first, and let Mrs. Gu throw away her mind first, this is the best of both worlds, but unfortunately these are not good for the second lady, but although she has no bad feelings towards the second miss, she is an old lady's person, and she naturally favors the old lady, so she can only tolerate some in private. After all, this kid is really too pitiful.
Afraid that the old lady would misunderstand that she was not satisfied, as soon as the old lady finished her instructions, Mother Shi hurriedly responded: "Yes, the old lady will look at it, the old slave knows the proportions, this time I went to see the sick and weak second lady for the old lady, poor old lady is full of love!" In the future, when Grandpa Guo comes back, he will definitely be grateful to the old lady, that is. Don't know, you have to praise our old lady for being kind. ”
