Chapter 226: Scum
The little maid Baicui, who was serving tea in the front hall, had tried her best to hide behind the pillar, trying her best to reduce her sense of existence, just wanting to avoid the disputes of the masters, and she would receive a messenger in peace, so that she could let people go in the twenty-four-year-old mansion. Who knew that today she was allowed to see something so unseeing.
The second lady of the in-laws and Hou Ye frowned, and took the initiative to give a hug to the prince, the Hou Ye was very happy with the intimacy of the second lady, and the prince was more normal, and sternly refused. She didn't dare to tell anyone about these gossips, she only dared to hold it in her heart alone, she knew that these were the banes, if it was publicized, it would be held accountable to her one day, and she would probably not be able to escape even if she had nine lives like a cat.
Who knew that when Hou Ye left, he would casually order her to pass the word.
She really didn't want to go! Mrs. Hou was too fierce, a word was inappropriate, it was a trivial matter to be scolded and beaten up, and it would be over if it happened on the spot, and the most important thing was that she couldn't go back and turn over the old accounts, and even found out the thing that accidentally broke a plate in the past.
Baicui cried with a sad face, but didn't dare to cry, only dared to withdraw a stiff smiling face, seeing that two chrysanthemums bloomed in the corners of Hou Ye's smiling eyes, and carefully went out with the second lady of the Qi family, then hesitantly went to Jin Xiangyuan to reply.
In the Jinxiang Garden, Zhang's was eating tea, and Bai Xiwei and Bai Xixi, two who were serving Zhang's legs, were chatting and chatting, just waiting for dinner later. Mama Li, who was in charge, came in and replied: "Madam, the maid in the front hall came back and forth, saying that the Hou Ye went out because of something at home. said that Mrs. please don't wait for him for dinner, and will come back later. ”
In fact, An Luhou does not stay in the mansion, and it is common for him not to come back without giving news, Zhang's family is used to such an unobtrusive husband for a long time and has no heart to look for it.
Today he said that he was going to his in-laws' house, and he specially told him that he didn't have to wait for dinner, so it looked particularly suspicious.
Zhang put down the tea bowl.
Bai Xiwan and Bai Xixi, brother and sister, glanced at each other, and felt that this was a sign of the coming mountain rain. Some wanted to retreat, but they were worried that if their mother was really angry because of their father's affairs, would they be able to watch Zhang sulk by himself?
The brother and sister sighed in unison, noticed each other's sighs, glanced at each other, and smiled helplessly.
Born in this family, I really have endured it to the limit.
Zhang's slender fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop, "What did you say, Master Hou went to his in-laws' house?"
"Yes, that's what the maidservant said. ”
"It's amazing. Is he not bent on climbing the high branches, and now that the Hou Ye is all the way to the end, there is only a bald title left, and he is not an official anymore, so he can still make friends with him? ”
Zhang laughed mockingly.
In this kind of words, who would dare to take over?
is Bai Xidui and Bai Xixi, the son does not say anything about the father, and he does not dare to speak.
Zhang said: "Don't bring that little hoof to me, tell me carefully what happened at that time." Are you still waiting for my orders?"
Mother Li nodded hurriedly and hurriedly retreated.
Baicui originally wanted to run, but her feet had already stepped out of the gate of Jinxiangyuan, but she forced herself to stop.
What's the use of running? Where to run? If you don't understand it again, I'm afraid that it will be even worse if Mrs. Hui blames her. It's better to think about how to reply to the seriousest.
Sure enough, Mother Li came out. Pull her in the door and let her carefully understand what she had just seen and heard. But Baicui's head was not squeezed by the door, where did he dare to tell the truth, so he had to say: "The slave maid was ordered to serve tea in the front hall, it was the second girl of the Qi family who came, saying that she asked to see Mrs. Shizi, and it happened that the Hou Ye was going out and ran into it, so he invited the second girl to come in and have a cup of tea, and ordered someone to invite Mrs. Shizi, and then the second girl came out, and the second girl Qi said that she asked Mrs. Shizi to go back and say a word to General Qi's wife, but Shizi refused to agree, so she left." Hou Ye said that for the sake of his in-laws, he went to Qi's house to help make peace. ”
Baicui didn't dare to tell the slightest lie, but she didn't dare to tell the Zhang family directly about the unbearable scene at that time, let alone say that she saw Hou Ye's squinting look at other girls, so she could only avoid the important and light.
However, how well does Zhang know Bai Yongchun, will he be the kind of warm-hearted person?
sneered and said, "Needless to say, this shameless person must have fallen in love with someone else's girl." ”
The servants and maids in the house all bowed their heads and did not dare to say a word. Even if that's the case, there's no need for Madame to explain it like that.
Bai Xixi lowered his head and did not speak.
Bai Xidu, as a man, couldn't get used to Zhang's approach, and waved his hand: "You all go down." ”
Baicui and the others hurriedly retreated as if they had been pardoned.
Zhang glanced back at his second son, and now as long as he thinks of Bai Yongchun, the anger in his heart does not come to a place, and his face is not very good-looking.
Bai Xidui said: "Mother don't want to be like this next time, this makes people listen to it and don't say it, and I don't ask people to say that there are no rules in our family behind my back." And if there is any gossip, but something that is not in the ordinary world makes a storm all over the city, will there be a glow on my mother's face?"
When Zhang heard that his son had reprimanded him for Bai Yongchun's old bastard, he said angrily: "Why do you learn to talk to your father now? What kind of character is he, and you need me to arrange him? I just don't say anything to him, do you think he will do fewer good things? I almost crippled myself! You still come to talk about me now!"
"Mother, you're mistaken. Bai Xiwan said anxiously: "The son is not for the father, but for you, you are so good that people look at it." ”
Zhang waved his hand impatiently: "Come on, you don't look down on me, I know in my heart, you are full of thoughts that you can find an errand to do in the future." Who knew that your father, who didn't grow up, did so many angry and resentful things, and delayed your errands, I am a woman in my career, and I can't help you, can your father's useless help me? You will speak for him now, can he still have the ears to hear it?"
"Mother, you are distorting your son by saying that. Bai Xidu's face turned red, his hands clenched into fists, he wanted to quarrel with Zhang's, but he couldn't, the son didn't say anything about his father, and he couldn't say anything about his mother.
Bai Xidu's heart was deeply sad.
Such an unreasonable daughter-in-law can't make sense, no wonder her father wants to find a confidant outside.
Bai Xiwan hung her head and was silent.
Bai Xixi's head vein was lower.
Zhang looked at the appearance of the two children, although he was unhappy because of Bai Yongchun's affairs, he was born by himself in the end, and he couldn't bear it, and sighed: "Being a mother is angry, your father has done too many things that have lost his conscience." How can my mother's heart be calm? Do you really think that he went to the Qi family to help persuade peace? If it weren't for Qi Wu who came to ask for help today, your father wouldn't be like this. ”
In fact, what Zhang said was right, Bai Xiwei also knew what kind of character his father was, he just didn't support Zhang to bring unfounded things to the table like this in front of his subordinates.
Both husband and wife are at fault, but they are also miserable people.
Bai Xiwan sighed.

Bai Xiyun went back to the bedroom this time, and saw that Qi Miao was still sleeping, afraid that she would sleep too much and not be sleepy at night, so he woke her up, and the two had dinner together, and then took a walk, wrapped in a blanket under the lamp and hugged each other and chatted, as usual. Bai Xiyun never told her about Qi Wu's coming.
Ai Lian knew about it, but seeing that Shizi was doing this, Qi Miao was pregnant, and there was really no need to her because of those bad things, so she didn't speak.
In this morning, Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao had just taken a walk in the yard with breakfast, and there was a noise outside.
"What's going on?" Qi Miao asked the maidservant.
Yulian hurriedly said: "Slave maid, let's go and have a look." ”
Bai Xiyun vaguely guessed what the situation would be, and couldn't help but be a little impatient.
Qi Miao is the best at observing words and feelings, not to mention that Bai Xiyun is the person she cares about in the world, his smile can't escape her eyes, of course he can see it really.
"What's going on?" Qi Miao pulled Bai Xiyun into the house.
"It's nothing. Bai Xiyun thought about it, now that the matter has been revealed, Qi Miao will know everything later, there is no need to hide it, and said, "It was Qi Wu who came last night." said that General Qi was going to completely retire the Miao family, and he wanted to ask you to intercede. I didn't wake you up when I saw that you were sleeping well, so I went to look at the front by myself. ”
"Ahead, then Qi Wu came straight to the main gate, didn't go through the door of our Qinyuan, who saw her when you went?"
Bai Xiyun smiled bitterly and pinched Qi Miao's cheek: "Can you not be so smart? I want to hide it from you, but I don't want you to be unhappy about these things." ”
Qi Miao blinked innocently: "Where am I smart, this is an obvious thing, she asked me, but she didn't come to me, but went to the front, probably just to make things happen." If Mrs. An Luhou saw her, these two people could just put together a show. It must have been a lively night last night, right?"
Bai Xiyun couldn't help but shake his head amusefully when he heard this, and said, "It wasn't Mrs. An Luhou who came out last night, but An Luhou. ”
Qi Miao was stunned for a moment and looked up at Bai Xiyun.
Bai Xiyun kept silent, not talking about it.
Qi Miao thought about Bai Yongchun's character, and then contacted Qi Wan's temperament, which is definitely a typical example of unscrupulous means for the sake of the end, could it be that these two people are still ......
What is this mother's sister, she has lost face to the Hou Mansion!
Qi Miao's face suddenly became hot, as if it had been roasted on a fire.
