"My cousin has never been touched with a little meat since she was filial piety. There is also a mother-in-law pressing on her head, kneeling and copying books from morning to night, and now she is really thin. The slave remembered that when the cousin girl was not married, at that time the cousin was plump and was raised by the family to be white and red, who didn't say a word about our family would raise people. But now look at the cousin girl, she is immersed in her body, the whole person is very haggard, and her face is also white, if it is not for the maids to support her all the time, she can't stand. Not only the cousin girl, but even the cousin young master also suffered a lot, and the whole person was about to lose weight. ”
"The Wang family is hateful, so they rely on the fact that the Zhou family is far away from Wei County, and the old man in the family can't go far away, and he can't beat them to death, so he dares to torture people like this. Fortunately, when Mrs. got the letter, she quickly sent someone over to see the situation and took our family's post, which forced the Wang family to release the cousin. Otherwise, it is unknown whether the cousin will survive this winter. ”
Brocade is articulate and can speak well, and the Sang Twisting Yue sisters and brothers are indeed weak, so she is not exaggerating. Of course, she omitted the fact that even if the cousin girl was weak, she was weak and beautiful. And she deliberately emphasized that her cousin was raised by her family when she was not married, and even said that the Zhou family is a kind family, and Zhou Baolu's parents are philanthropic people, and they take great care of their nieces who come to defect. As for the expiration of the Sang Twisting Moon and Filial Piety Period, the mother's family has not picked it up for a long time, isn't this a long distance, the Zhou family is old and young, and they can't go out at all? Even if they can go out, the Wang family is the head snake in Wei County, and the Zhou family is not at their mercy when they arrive in Wei County? Therefore, it is not that the Zhou family is not dedicated, but that they are powerless.
The brocade also pointed out that it was the post in the house that let the Wang family release them without saying a word, indicating that the name of the Wu'an Hou Mansion is very loud outside, and who dares to offend the idlers? This is to please the old lady. There is also a lady who is kind-hearted, and makes a special trip to rescue her cousin, Mrs. pays attention to benevolence and love, and Mrs. is the embodiment of truth, kindness and beauty. Otherwise, the cousin has been tortured and died at a young age, which is a pity.
Brocade knows the art of language very well, no, it seems that he has not said anything, and it seems to have said everything.
Zhou Baolu gave her an approving look, and the second lady pouted.
She believed what Brocade had just said, and that the cousin and the young master were not human. After all, they are under the fence, and they don't have the support of their mother's family, so the Wang family is not a kind-hearted person, and they can treat their sisters and brothers well. Besides, whether people are miserable or not, you can know at a glance that lying on this is easy to be punctured, and the brocade can become the big girl by Zhou Baolu's side, and she will not make such a low-level mistake.
But the brocade explained for the Zhou family and praised Zhou Baolu for loving her sisters, but the second lady almost laughed off her big teeth.
Is there anything in this world that people can't do?
If the Zhou family really has a heart, I am afraid that when they learn that the Wang family is grinding people, they will take them home. The Zhou family has no power, doesn't the Zhou family still have powerful relatives? Take out the post of the Hou Mansion of Wu'an, who dares not to sell a little face?
But when the filial piety is out, the cousin and the young master have suffered enough, and the torture is not human, so at this time to save people, isn't this to play the role of a savior, I want people to think of grace, and it is best to obey in the future?
This little trick in the snow, she learned it when she was a child.
The second lady was too lazy to expose Zhou Baolu, she could understand everything, and the old lady was even more mirrored in her heart.
I heard the old lady say lightly, "You are a person with a heart." ”
Zhou Baolu hurriedly said, "Don't dare to be." In the end, it's my own sister, and I can't bear to let my cousin lose her fragrance at a young age, which is what I should do. It's just that I rashly used the name of the mansion, for fear that after the fact, the Wang family will hear the voice of our Hou Mansion oppressing people. ”
"You don't have to worry about this, let him do it. Right and wrong, right and wrong, and fairness are all in the hearts of the people, and it is not that outsiders will believe them if they want to talk nonsense. ”
"It's my daughter-in-law who is in love."
"You're still young, it's not easy to be so thoughtful. Listen more and see more in the future, and you will not be coerced by the world. ”
Then he said, "Your cousin is really a poor person, so I'll ask Shuang Yu to send her some bird's nest later." She is young in the end, so she can make up for it well, and her body can still raise her. She still has a long life ahead of her, she has a good body, and if she marries a good family in the future, she may have a better future. By the way, let's ask a doctor to show her. In the end, it is in the body, and the doctor prescribes the right medicine, so that he can be healthy faster. ”
Zhou Baolu didn't care about the acidity, and hurriedly said: "Your old man is kind, I have thanked you for my cousin first." You've been through a lot, and you're definitely right. I should let my cousin listen to you, and save her from thinking nonsense, and she will no longer have the ambition to live. ”
The second lady couldn't see Zhou Baolu stepping on people in the dirt, so she answered, "Since my mother gave bird's nest, I will give you a small mountain ginseng." The girl of the Sang family is afraid that she will hurt her vitality, and this ginseng should be more useful when used to hang soup to nourish her body. ”
Zhou Baolu: "The second sister-in-law has a heart. ”
"In the end, it's my younger sister's cousin, and I should care more. By the way, my mother said that she would invite a doctor, why don't you ask Dr. Wu to come into the house to diagnose Miss Sang's pulse? Dr. Wu is familiar with our family, and his medical skills are good, so he will definitely be able to cure the disease. In the future, when the cousin of the Sang family recovers, we will have fun together, won't the house be lively? ”
Zhou Baolu's chest was jammed, but she had to respond, "Thank you second sister-in-law, or second sister-in-law for thoughtfulness." ”
After that, the two of them said a few more words, and when they saw that the old lady was tired, they all retired with interest.
When she got out of Heyan Hall, the second lady asked Zhou Baolu, "It's still early, why don't you go and see Miss Sang together?" ”
Zhou Baolu was too lazy to make any more plays, so she only said, "Brocade just said, my cousin is immersed in her body, and we will go over at this time, I'm afraid it will disturb her rest." It's better to take it slowly, and when my cousin's condition improves, it's not too late for us to go over and visit. ”
The second lady said, "It's okay for me to be early or late, but you are your cousin." Aren't you homesick? Seeing Cousin Sang is equivalent to seeing her mother's family, and if you relieve your younger siblings' homesickness earlier, aren't your younger siblings more comfortable? ”
Zhou Baolu sighed deeply that the second sister-in-law was difficult, and when that day came in the future, she designated to sweep the second sister-in-law's family out of the house, and see how she cried at that time.
But now I have to continue to explain patiently, "Brother Rong is young, and he is not sick. I'd better wait for my cousin to get better before I went to visit. ”
The two broke up unhappily.
Everything that happened outside the Heyan Hall reached the ears of the old lady in an instant. The old lady bowed her head lightly, and Mama Cui beside her let the little maid go down, while she waited for the old lady to take off her shoes and socks and crooked on the beauty couch.
The old lady sighed faintly, "The third family is used to doing some superficial work, but this character is crooked, and I don't know how the Zhou family raised the girl." ”
Mama Cui said, "Madame is just young and ignorant, you will teach more in the future, and you will grow up." ”
If you don't grow, you will have a headache if you talk too much.
It has been three or four years since Zhou Baolu married into the Hou Mansion of Wu'an. The old lady watched her mind swell little by little. All her calculations are written in her eyes, and she thinks that she hides them tightly, and no one else knows. If it weren't for the fact that Brother Rong was really smart, Zhou Baolu and the third child were also affectionate, otherwise, I really regretted that I was relieved at that time.
"A girl from the Zhou family is enough to toss, I hope it is good to come here today."
When Mama Cui heard the old lady chanting Buddha, she couldn't help but chuckle, "That designation is a good nature, if it is not a good nature, it can't be so manipulated." It's just that the clay man also has a three-minded nature, so I'm afraid that I will be tortured over there, and then I will be calculated by my relatives here, and the cousin will be very angry, and then make some other things come out, which will give people a headache. ”
"You, you, are more and more daring to say it now."
Mama Cui chuckled, "It's not what you're used to, Miss." ”

Besides, at this time in the Rose Garden, Su Jin and Su Xin cleaned up inside and out, and only then did two little maids come over to report. Their names are Fluttershy and Kiriha, and they are the little maids assigned to the Rose Garden.
Fluttershy is clever when she looks at it, and her dark eyes are purring, making her whole person look so delicate and bright. She looked at the dilapidated scenery of the Rose Garden without a trace, and the simple clothes on Su Jin Suxin's body, a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes.
On the other hand, the paulownia leaf is thin and small, and the complexion is also sallow and sallow. Her eyes were blank, and she didn't look very energetic. When he saw someone, he didn't know how to speak, and he didn't know how to cry out in pain when he was pinched by Fluttershy's arm, like a fool.
To be honest, Su Jin and Su Xin saw such two people, and their hearts were half cold. The two didn't know if the Wu'an Hou Mansion had selected the maids at this level as a whole, or if the mansion had specially sent them here if they had problems. If it's the first reason, then they have nothing to say; But if it's the second reason, it's really, vomiting will also vomit people to death.
Fluttershy's voice is like a silver bell, and it sounds so good. But Suxin didn't like her, so she pulled her face and didn't like to take care of her. It was still Su Jin who pulled her, Su Xin finally ignored the love on her face, and went to the west wing to wipe the medicine jar and the small tea stove.
Su Jin vaguely brushes Su Xin's faux pass and talks to Fluttershy, but it takes a few moments to figure out the current situation in the house.
There are not a few masters of Wu'anhou's mansion, large and small, especially noteworthy, that is, Mrs. Wu'anhou, Mrs. Wu'anhou, today's Wu'anhou, and the second and third masters who still live in the mansion, and then the three girls in the mansion.
Mrs. Wu'anhou is still alive, but after the death of the previous Wu'anhou, Mrs. Tai led the Qing Dynasty in the family temple. The old man picks up Buddha beans and copies Buddhist scriptures in the Buddhist hall all day long, and she doesn't ask about the things inside and outside the Wu'an Hou Mansion. Even if she had to go to the palace every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, the lady excused herself from this trip under the pretext that she was already a person outside the party.
No one can see this idle, but there is no need to worry about breaking the taboo of the old man and causing displeasure.
The old lady of Wu'anhou, who is the mother of the current Wu'anhou, is in charge of the affairs of the house. In the end, the old lady had a spring and autumn period, and her daughter-in-law also entered the door, so she was a little lazy, so she divided the affairs of the house to the second lady and the third lady.
However, Xu is the two ladies are young, and Xu is worried that it will be difficult to take back the rights after they are divided, and when Mrs. Hou, who remarried, enters the door, a few concubines will make trouble because of the housekeeper's affairs, and the two ladies are also trivial things, even if they make mistakes, they will not cause chaos. The real big thing in the house is still handled by Mama Cui next to the old lady. This is the old lady's dowry grandmother, who has followed the old lady since she was a child, and is very thin in the Hou Mansion.
Needless to say, the current Marquis of Wu An, that is the biggest master in this mansion. However, Hou Ye is busy with official business, and he can't see anyone when he is free.
The second room and the third room are different, the second room is a concubine, but the aunt who gave birth to the second master had a serious illness when he was young, and the second master has been raised under the old lady's knee since then, even if he is not biological, he has been raised for so many years, and there is not much difference from his biological one.
The second master is out on business, and the second lady's family is not small. Besides, the second lady is not a disadvantaged character, and no one dares to give her face when her temper comes up, so it is best to be respectful in front of her.
The third lady gave birth to the only son of the lineage in this house, and the third master loves him very much, even if he comes out of a small family, the people dare not make a mistake in front of her.
Then there is the third girl in the house, Shen Yuyao. This is the only girl in the house, and she is the old daughter of the old lady of Wu'anhou. Since he was a child, he has been raised with gold and dignity, and his temper is a little arrogant......
This is what Su Jin deduced from Fluttershy's words. Fluttershy's words are subtle, but that's what they mean. Su Jin bowed slightly, signaling that she remembered everything, and she didn't dare to offend the people who served around the third girl.
Xu is on the way, Xu is talking about the rise, and Fluttershy says something else. For example, my aunt's family now lives in the house. This aunt is the daughter of Mrs. Tai, and the old lady is an aunt-in-law, and she is the aunt of the current Wu'an Hou.
When Su Jin heard this, she asked, "My aunt's family suffered a disaster, so she came to the capital to join her mother's family?" ”
Fluttershy pouted, "That's not it. Our aunt and grandmother said that they were here to serve their mother, but Mrs. Tai didn't see anyone else, and she didn't know what her aunt could serve. But she insisted on staying in the house and not leaving, so no one could do anything about her. In fact, everyone can see that my aunt and grandmother want to be close to her mother's family. ”
Su Jin's eyes widened slightly, and he made just the right amount of surprise, "Kiss and kiss?" Grandma has taken a fancy to our three girls? ”
Fluttershy patted her, "The third girl is a Buddha, and my aunt is used to taking it big, can she get a niece to go back and offer it?" People, they have taken a fancy to our Hou Ye. ”
Su Jin: "...... Hou, hasn't Master Hou ever been divorced? ”
"What happened to the separation? Didn't you leave a son and a half daughter in front of you? Let's not talk about marrying in and directly being Mrs. Hou, just say that our Hou Ye's appearance and posture are so majestic, is that little girl dazzled when she sees it? Not to mention that the Hou Ye is still an important minister of the Son of Heaven, how many ministers in the court want to marry our family. You don't know, since Hou Yehe left, the old lady has received several more posts every year inviting her to enjoy flowers, eat tea, and offer incense. ”
