Chapter 353: Drama
Qi Miao was very puzzled. Isn't the old lady already sick? Just ask a person who is seriously ill, but a good person has entered the door of a junior, Qi Miao can't think of any other reason except guessing that she is here to seek medical advice.
Could it be that he came to their house with a handful of old bones and sprinkled them, and finally died here and then blackmailed them?
I have to say that Qi Miao's second guess is very close to the truth. It's just that Qi Miao herself is not a strange person, so naturally she can't guess the true thoughts of strange people.
And Bai Xiyun obviously has more experience in getting along with strange things, he twisted his eyebrows, thought about it and ordered: "Now on the first day of the first lunar month, the old lady is putting up this kind of battle, it is obvious that he is looking for trouble, and the yamen has not yet opened, and it is not possible to find the yamen, in this way, Yulian, you quickly go to the palace of King De, go to ask King De to help, if King De asks, you answer truthfully." ”
Yulian finally settled down after hearing this, and hurriedly went down to invite someone with a "yes" answer, thinking while leaving, the relationship between the adults of their family and His Royal Highness King De is better, and they can also invite someone to support the scene at a critical moment, if there is no such relationship, the servants and maids of their family don't know what to do.
Now half of the servants and maids in the grange have followed the lord and lady from the Anluhou Mansion, at that time they made such a choice because they saw through the ugliness of the Bai family and did not want to be mighty with them, and now they are living in the grange, there are not so many strange masters, and there are not so many turmoil, the two masters are kind, never beat and scold their subordinates, and they are generous, whoever has a sick master in the family will help, where to find such a good owner?
Now the subordinates in the grange are all hugging together, and they are loyal to Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao.
It was a group of loyal people, and when they saw that the old lady was ordered by the Zhang family to be carried in a sedan chair, followed by a large number of maids and women, it was like they were going to quarrel with each other, so when they saw it, they felt very depressed.
I really don't want to deal with the people of the Bai family!
Yulian shook her head and sighed, and went out the back door.
At this time, the old lady was panting and sitting in the circle chair panting, full of sickness and depression, as if if someone made her angry, she would be able to roll her eyes and die in the next moment.
Zhang was waiting for her to eat tea, while Bai Xiwei was sitting by the door in the distance with her eyes down, her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.
Zhang was a little worried, and whispered to the old lady: "I don't know what's going on." Why did you tell us to wait so long? ”
The old lady covered her mouth and coughed several times before she evened out her breath and said, "Bai Xiyun is the same as Qi Miao, a young couple of people, so it can't be said that they are deliberately avoiding us, but it doesn't matter, they just refuse to come out, and we won't leave, just spend it with him here." ”
Seeing the old lady like this, Zhang nodded with a smile, but when he straightened up, mockery flashed in his eyes.
is worthy of being a cheeky old lady. This kind of door-to-door behavior can only be done by such old goods. She and her son were just forced to follow the old lady out of desperation, and this matter has nothing to do with them.
Zhang sat down on the official hat chair next to the old lady and ate tea with peace of mind. The people served the flower tea for hospitality, not the best tea, nor the Tieguanyin that Zhang's loved to eat.
Impatiently put down the tea bowl, Zhang raised his voice and said: "Come on, change the tea, I want to eat Tieguanyin!"
Zhang's sharp shouting didn't call the subordinates yet, but he called Bai Xidu, who had been stunned just now, back to his senses.
Bai Xiwan looked at Zhang's who was arrogant and asked for tea, and he didn't like it in his heart, but his face didn't change. It seems that the Zhang family regards this grange as their home. But Bai Xiyun is not born to the Zhang family at all, and I don't know where her righteousness comes from, whether it is entirely because of her nurturing grace to Bai Xiyun.
Bai Xidu's mind was heavy, and he didn't want to eat the tea, so he just played with the lid of the tea bowl, thinking in his heart about what method he could use to explain himself if he encountered any emergencies later.
And the old lady was also thinking about what to say when she saw Bai Xiyun later.
For a while, the quiet needle drop in the front hall could be heard, and Zhang's just shouted to change the tea to eat, and no one responded so far. Zhang wanted to have a seizure, and saw that the old lady was closing her eyes and seemed to be contemplative, looking at her son, just like an old monk in a daze, she couldn't shout loudly, so she could only snort, picked up the tea bowl and ate two more bites in disgust.
At this time, the sky is getting dark, originally if it is summer, this time is not yet dark, but in winter the days are short and the nights are long, early outside the house hung lanterns, people rushed in, the silk lanterns were arranged, and the house was filled with warm lights for a while.
The old lady is just a little impatient, and she is a little impatient to wait.
"Go, call someone and I'll ask. The old lady pointed to Yao's mother beside her.
Yao's mother was stunned when she heard this, nodded hurriedly, and finally had a chance, so she hurriedly bowed and retreated, and went to the porch to call someone.
In fact, how dare the subordinates neglect the master's distinguished guests? The maidservants didn't take care of these guests very much, it was entirely because of Bai Xiyun's instructions.
Seeing Yao's mother come out, the maids and women who were hiding in the wing room eating tea and talking all saw it, but no one came out to answer.
Yao's mother is the most powerful roommate in front of Lao Taijun, and she is a celebrity in Anluhou's mansion in the past. Now the subordinates who serve in the outer courtyard of the Grange are the original old man, so they naturally know how powerful Yao's mother is. But what about nowadays?
No matter how powerful a person used to be, he is nothing now. As the saying goes, a phoenix that has shed its hair is not as good as a chicken. Marquis An Lu lost his official position and lost his lordship, and his face was also lost. Although they can't figure out what Lao Taijun is going to do, people who have a certain understanding of Lao Taijun's shamelessness know that she must not be able to do anything good.
Yao's mother stood under the porch and waited for a moment before anyone passed by, and she knew in her heart that this must be a deliberate embarrassment by the subordinates, not a lax family. With Bai Xiyun and Qi Miao's skills, it's just a small grange, will they be able to rectify it?
Yao's mother went down the steps and went straight to the side room where people usually rested.
Knocking lightly, the people in the wing room had no choice but to open the door.
Yao's mother glanced at the direction of the main room behind her, and while taking out a neatly folded note from her sleeve, she asked loudly, "Who are you in charge here?"
They are all human spirits, and no one can not see the height of their eyebrows. They all know that Yao's mother is a celebrity next to Lao Taijun, but now they don't understand why she is squeezing her eyebrows at them, but even if they don't understand, it doesn't delay their gossip at all.
An old mother at the head stepped forward and strangely took the note and was about to open it.
Yao's mother shook her head and pressed her hand, and said in a low voice, "Send it to the adult." I'm one of the grown-ups. ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and their eyes widened. Then came the worship of Bai Xiyun.
The adults of their family are so good that they have taken over the most powerful old mother of Bai Laotaijun. With this person, what news can't be obtained?
The old mother nodded hurriedly, took the thing in her arms and went out.
In addition, the little girl who also had a spirit said loudly: "It's just a poor relative who came to fight the autumn breeze, and he wants to change tea and make a tune, who likes to serve!"
The little girl's voice is very sharp, and it can be transmitted far and wide out of thin air.
Yao's mother smiled at the little girl, gave her thumbs up, and then crossed her waist and quarreled intently: "How do you talk This is, if you were in the Hou Mansion outside in the past, just a subordinate like you, drag down a few boards to keep your bones and tendons, and people have abolished you, and you still see you shouting in front of the master?"
When the little girl saw Yao's mother entering the play, she coughed and cleared her throat, winked at Yao's mother mischievously, and then said loudly: "Don't look at what time it is, there is no such person as An Luhou in the capital now." You still think of yourself as your Hou Mansion, how come I don't know when the emperor will reinstate An Luhou? Could it be that An Luhou still wants to rebel and make himself a Hou Ye?"
Yao's mother and the people present knew that they were deliberately arguing, Rao was so, she couldn't help but admire the clever speech of the little girl in front of her, which made her speechless for a while.
She could only make a fierce and introverted appearance, and scolded loudly: "Let your mother's fart! You don't put the shit basin on our master, the master is poor and honest, and he is used to being idle and wild, and he doesn't care about sitting in a restaurant and not being an official, thinking that you ordinary people, who will not understand the benefits of our master? Don't talk to me, just say, how do you serve? Or do you say that Lord Bai and Mrs. Bai don't know that our old lady and Mrs. are here? If you dare to deceive your master, let your superiors know, but you can't eat and walk around!"
"I want you to take care of it! You are not the housekeeper in this grange, what are you worried about, aren't you the person next to Bai Lao Taijun, why don't you take care of your family's affairs, but we are here to spread wild, that is, the yamen will not open the door today, otherwise our family will definitely kick you out and lock you in the yamen to relieve your hatred!"
"Yes, let's ignore this old woman. There was a girl on the side who watched the little girl scolding happily, and she also interjected.
Yao's mother secretly thought in her heart that the maidservants taught by Qi Miao were all clever, and she also had a smile on her face, but her voice was full of depression, and she said with a strong face: "What kind of thing are you, dare to come and ask for my strength?"
