Chapter 60 Leveraging Strength
Everyone didn't expect Xia Qianwei to mention the matter of Zhuyuan today, who in the General's Mansion didn't turn a blind eye to the situation of the mother and son, you must know that the third lady was also very unkind to see them in the past, why did she have to fight for them this time?
Aunt Ruan reacted suddenly, the third lady was afraid that the drunkard didn't mean to drink, and the eldest lady thought that after the second young master came back, she would get a gold medal for avoiding death, and even the fourth miss began to come back without fear to compete for favor, so the third lady wanted to use her strength to give them a dismount!
After all, the food and clothing in the bamboo garden have always been arranged by the eldest lady, and no one wants to offend her on weekdays, but now it is different from the past, if the old lady knows the situation of Aunt Su and the eldest young master, I am afraid that the eldest lady would rather continue to stay in the house to avoid the edge for a while than show up, right?
Xia Lanchu, who didn't know the seriousness of the matter, secretly clenched the hand in his sleeve angrily, and his fingertips almost pierced the soft palm.
Is it ridiculous that she wants to ask her grandmother to reward that waste brother so easily?
"Father, what the third sister said is true?" Xia Changfeng didn't care about Wen's frequent eyes for help at the moment, what happened during the time when he was in a poisoning coma?
Xia Yihai pursed his lips, seemingly very reluctant to mention Xia Guxin, and immediately avoided his gaze, Xia Changfeng immediately understood something, and his expression was full of indignation.
"It's been so many years, why does my father still refuse to forgive my eldest brother?" he still doesn't want to believe that the accident nine years ago was caused by his eldest brother, but no one in the house wants to listen to him.
Thinking of the estrangement between the two brothers over the years, Xia Changfeng felt guilty.
He was afraid that his body was not good, but he still risked his life to test the medicine for himself......
Thinking of this, Xia Changfeng had already stood up, and everyone was shocked, "Second Young Master, what are you going to do?"
I saw that the man had a cold expression, even if his father was displeased today, he would see his eldest brother!
"Naturally, I want to bring them here and share the joy of reunion!"
"Second brother stays!"
Xia Qianwei stopped him anxiously, Xia Changfeng was a little surprised, but he saw the woman in front of him with a sad face, "Although the eldest brother's house is simple and has no carbon stove, at least there are four walls to block the wind, and the clothes on his body can't withstand the severe cold like today." ”
What? How have you fallen so far?
The old lady's face became more and more ugly, and her gaze fell coldly on the eldest lady who pretended to be calm.
At this time, Wen couldn't wait to rush forward to tear Xia Qianwei's mouth, the opportunity he had just waited for was about to be smashed in the hands of this girl!
She got up from her seat in a panic and knelt down beside Xia Lanchu, "Mother Mingjian, everything about Zhuyuan's daughter-in-law has already been arranged for Mama Liu in the house, and she has explained three times that she wants to take care of Aunt Su and the eldest young master! If it weren't for Qianwei mentioning it today, the daughter-in-law would have been kept in the dark like her mother......
"Hehe, what does the eldest lady mean is that all this is made by Mama Liu herself? Without your signal, a mere subordinate would dare to treat the aunt and young master of the General's Mansion so harshly?"
Aunt Ruan opened her mouth in a strange way, and Xia Lanchu raised her eyes and glared at her unceremoniously.
"Aunt Ruan is afraid that she has forgotten that all the trivial things in the house have been handled by her mother over the years, and if some subordinates deliberately deceive the upper and lower levels, it is inevitable that there will be mistakes. It's no wonder that Aunt Ruan has just been in charge of the backyard for a short time, and she can't appreciate the hard work. ”
Xia Lanchu's words not only excused her mother, but also satirized Aunt Ruan's indifference to the affairs of the General's Mansion.
"The fourth lady is right, the concubine body is indeed not as good as the eldest lady who has worked hard. It's just that the old lady has always advocated frugality, and this house has not been repaired for many years, but I didn't expect that the fourth lady would be such an eye-opener as soon as she made a move, but the eldest young master didn't even have a decent dress there, this is also a mistake of the concubine, please punish the old lady!"
Aunt Ruan also knelt down, she lowered her head and a sneer on the corner of her mouth, just to remind everyone that Xia Lanchu's private silver is not ordinary, and in the eyes of the thrifty food in the various rooms of the General's Mansion, if you don't check it well, how can you block Youyou's mouth?
"It seems that there are quite a few things I don't know about in this house. ”
The old lady opened her mouth meaningfully, and her deep gaze turned between the mother and daughter kneeling on the ground.
You must know that every time there is a large amount of expenditure in the house, it is paid by the Wen family to the account office in the name of loving Xia Qianwei, how much of it goes into their own pockets?
After these few things, the trust that Wen's efforts over the years have earned has gradually collapsed in the old lady's place, and once she becomes suspicious, she becomes more and more out of control, looking at Wen's extremely aggrieved expression at this moment, she feels that it is so false and deliberate.
Xia Lanchu finally realized that Xia Qianwei had dug a pit for her at the beginning, and Aunt Ruan added oil and vinegar to it, originally these delicacies were used to please her grandmother, but now they are counterproductive, it is really hateful!
I wanted to explain, but this silver was indeed given by her mother, and she was afraid that she would say too much wrong, so she could only keep cursing Xia Qianwei in her heart.
"Go, send a few sets of thick clothes to the bamboo garden, and bring Aunt Su and the eldest young master, in addition, I want to see what kind of slave dares to be so wild in the general's mansion!"
Hearing a bang, the old lady slapped the table hard, and the atmosphere around her suddenly became tense.
Aunt Su in the corner was originally full of unhappiness, what kind of reunion dinner, no one present thought of her Xiao Jiu, isn't she the lady of the General's Mansion who is sick all the year round?
But now such a good show made her mood gradually happy, thinking that she had not been able to get rid of the second young master before and blamed Xia Guxin, maybe it was the will of God.
The eldest lady wanted to re-consolidate her position, and the third lady pushed the eldest young master out, isn't it her best choice to watch the tiger fight across the mountain?
Until a long and thin figure slowly appeared in front of everyone, Aunt Su raised her head with a gloating smile in her eyes, and her expression couldn't help but stiffen in the next second, and the man in front of her was very different from what she imagined......
At this time, Xia Guxin changed into the cyan robe sent by Mama Lei, her long hair as thin as silk was crowned behind her head, her straight posture had an indescribable sense of elegance, and her thin and handsome face made people shine.
Compared with Xia Changfeng's hearty and capable aura, Xia Guxin is like a detached and outstanding literati, and his gestures are all polite, and his transparent appearance like jade can win people's favor at a glance.
The surroundings became quieter and quieter, and the old lady looked at the young man like bamboo leaves, his eyes were like those of childhood, so that her mind couldn't help but think of many years ago, Xia Guxin was smart and sensible standing in front of her and reciting the scriptures of poetry.
Xia Yihai looked at Xia Guxin's stiff and dragging left leg, and his stiff gaze made it impossible to guess what he was thinking at the moment.
The old lady's eyes couldn't help but get hot, and she subconsciously stood up and stretched out her hand, but saw him unwrap his clothes and kneel, and his warm voice came with a little surging emotion, "My grandson is not filial, please punish my grandmother." ”
