Chapter 4 Red moles on the feet
Seeing that the old lady gave a meeting gift, the eldest lady Yan and the second wife Lin also took out the gifts that had been prepared a long time ago, one was a hairpin and the other was a beaded flower, and Mama Shi also gave Mrs. Wu'an Hou a pair of white jade bracelets with excellent color.
Seeing this pair of bracelets, the old lady's face was a little unsightly, Mama Shi did it on purpose, it must have been deliberate, not only guessed that she would also give the bracelet, but also rubbed it out until the end before taking out the meeting gift.
The girl who grew up in the troupe, where is she worthy of such a good bracelet.
Of course, this is not the thing that makes the He family angry the most.
The last time Mrs. Wu'anhou came, she almost asked He Shuyuan to take off her shoes and socks in public, although she was later accompanied by the Yan family and asked He Shuyuan to take off her shoes and socks behind the screen for Mrs. Wu'anhou to see, but this incident made the He family very faceless, and He Shuyuan cried to death.
But this time, Mama Shi didn't mention the matter of letting He Ran take off her shoes for inspection.
Why don't you let He Ran take off her shoes?
Why did you force He Shuyuan to take off her shoes?
Isn't that bullying?
The He family all thought so, but they all endured it and didn't say anything.
The He family is a scholarly family, and they don't compete on it.
There is no separate courtyard in the house, He Ran was arranged to the courtyard of the third lady He Shuyun, Yan smiled and wanted to take He Ran over, but He Ran stood there without moving, with an innocent face and no heart: "Hei Mei's silver hasn't been given yet, they are still waiting at the gate." ”
This was said to the old lady.
"Black girl, what black girl?" The old lady was puzzled.
Mother Liu's face had changed, and she was about to explain, when He Ran's voice sounded again: "Heimei is my savior!"
Mother Liu is in the most prosperous place in Wanchun County, and she offers a reward of 1,500 taels to find someone, and the whole Wanchun County knows about it.
Many people went to look for me, but only Heimei found me, and she did her best to save me from the turbulent Yellow River.
Liu's mother said that she didn't bring so much silver, so she asked Heimei to come to Zhending Mansion to ask for silver.
Heimei brought her family and all her belongings with us. ”
"How much did you say the bounty was offered?" The old lady thought she had misheard.
"Mother Liu offered a reward of 1,500 taels." He Ran raised his voice.
The old lady was stunned, it turned out that she heard it right, is this Mrs. Liu crazy or stupid, doesn't she know the situation of the He family, who gave her the guts to dare to offer a reward of 1,500 taels?
Who else could it be, of course, it was the Yan family, and Mother Liu was the Yan family's confidant.
The old lady was angry, but He Ran was afraid that the old lady was not angry enough: "The reward notice says that I want to find the eldest lady of the He family in Zhending Mansion who has a red mole on her foot, and this matter is also known to the entire Wanchun County."
Heimei found me and found that I had a red mole on my foot, and let Yan'er see it, which confirmed my identity. ”
When He Ran said that there was a red mole on his foot, his tone was aggravated, not only the old lady, but even the second wife Lin and Shi Mama of the Wu'an Hou Mansion also changed their faces.
The old lady was full of emotion, and glared at Mother Liu: "You really did this?" ”
The marks on the woman's body, except for the female surname elders who are close to the family, can only be known by the future husband, but Liu's mother can't let everyone in the world know that it is not only He Ran who is laughed at by others, but all the women of the He family, not to mention, He Ran is not the only girl who is not married.
Mother Liu didn't dare to look at Yan's family, she knelt on the ground with a puff, and kept kowtowing: "The old lady is angry, it's the slave who deserves to die, the slave and the maid just saw the eldest lady fall into the water, and she was in a hurry, so she panicked, the slave and the maid really don't have bad intentions." ”
The old lady closed her eyes, this mother-in-law was so bold that she didn't dare to do this, no need to ask, this was instructed by the Yan family.
The old lady opened her eyes again and said to Yan: "This is your person, you take it back to discipline me, I can't control it." ”
Yan Shi hurriedly laughed: "Mother, don't be angry, it's not worth it for this matter." The daughter-in-law will take this ignorant slave back to be punished. ”
Yan glared at Mother Liu fiercely, and was about to retreat first, but heard Mama Shi sigh faintly, and said in a crying voice: "Alas, if my wife knew that the daughter of her benefactor who had worked so hard to give birth to was so insulted, how sad she would be, this is our Mrs. Shizi who has not passed the door, who will call the shots for her." ”
Okay, the old lady couldn't hand over Mother Liu to the Yan family, she looked at Master He: "Alas, I'm old, Da Lang, I can't control the affairs of this house!" ”
Master He couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb, he shouted angrily: "Come on, call someone to sell this evil slave who deceives the master, and sell it as far away as possible!" ”
Mother Liu was so frightened that she couldn't possess her body, how did things develop to this point, she hurriedly cast a look at Yan for help, Yan was also pale, Mother Liu knew too many things, how could she sell it casually.
The two sturdy mothers-in-law came over and dragged Mother Liu out, Yan looked at Master He, Master He glanced at her meaningfully, women are soft-hearted, what is a mere servant woman.
As for the 1,500 taels owed to Heimei, although the matter of Wanchun County could not be transmitted to Zhending Mansion for a while, but Master He had an official status, and he didn't want to leave a reputation for not paying his debts, not to mention that the creditor was still a low-level corpse digger.
Although Mother Liu was sold, she was a person from the big house, and the thousand five hundred taels still had to fall into the big house's own account, and the second master and the second wife were looking at each other, and if you dared to say that you would go to the public account, you would fight with you, let alone count on the old lady, so that the old man He and the Yan family could only knock out their teeth and swallow blood.
That's not one hundred and fifty taels, but fifteen hundred taels!
If Liu's mother is sold a hundred times, she can't sell it for 1,500 taels.
Yan didn't have the heart to send He Ran, she not only wanted to let Yazi buy Mother Liu, but also arranged for someone to go to Renyazi to buy Mother Liu back.
It's just that they can't stay in the mansion after buying it, and there is still one less confidant by Yan's side.
It's annoying to think about.
Mother Zhao, who was still next to the old lady, sent He Ran to He Shuyun's yard.
He Shuyun is three years younger than He Ran, with thin arms and legs, but her face is round and with baby fat.
When Zhao's mother left, He Shuyun looked He Ran up and down, and asked curiously: "I heard that you grew up in the troupe, do you know how to sing?" ”
"We are a grass stage team, we don't follow the rules, we don't pay so much attention, I'm a sword, I can't sing, I can only fight."
He Shuyun's eyes lit up: "Really? Then you're going to have to turn your heels, or why don't you turn your heels and show me? ”
"Okay, let's bet, if I lose, I'll turn eighteen times in a row, and if you lose, you'll ......"
He Shuyun was startled, and hurriedly said: "I can't turn my heels, I can't sing, I don't know anything!" ”
"Then you will always speak, I will ask you to answer, you can rest assured, I will not ask what you shouldn't ask." He Ran smiled.
He Shuyun nodded: "Okay." ”
