The girls, grandmothers, and wives that Madam Li has seen in her life are all generous and generous people who have a good reputation. She never expected that Xu Qingheng just entered the door, and she was about to go to the whole house to declare that she was an iron rooster.

However, looking at Xu Qingheng’s determined posture, he thought that Jia Lian had given Xu Qingheng some kind of bewitching soup, and also thought that Xu Qingheng was a newlywed who was not afraid of ruining his reputation when he was obedient to Jia Lian, and waited for her to do it for a few years After grandma, after seeing through the word “husband and wife”, she will naturally protect her reputation shrewdly.

After thinking about it, Nanny Li didn’t stop her.

The two people on this side were talking, and in the Rongqing Hall over there, Jia Mu squinted her eyes on the couch, stepped on the side of the couch, and Amber knelt obediently and beat Jia Mu’s legs. , Then he told the rumors in the whole house that Xu Qingheng used his own people to kill chickens and monkeys.

“What exactly is it for punishing her own housemate?” In Jia’s mother’s eyes, Xu Qingheng was still such a well-behaved child, and she thought that a child from a noble family – even if such a terrible thing happened, would not It’s very disciplined.

Hu Po said rather mysteriously: “It is said that the Second Mistress came back from the Second Master’s house, and ordered her own people to stand in the yard as punishment as soon as she entered the door. Could it be that Second Grandma’s people offended the Second Master?”

“How could Second Master be offended by an ordinary person?” Mother Jia snorted softly.

Hu Po hurriedly laughed and said: “What the old ancestor said is that the second master has the most generous heart. Even if people he doesn’t like jump up and down in front of him, they can’t offend him.”

“…What did Second Grandma’s people do this morning?” Mother Jia frowned slightly, hearing Baoyu and Xiangyun’s laughter from outside the window from time to time, her brows frowned again, “Send someone to send Master Bao, go back to the East Garden.”

Amber doesn’t understand.

Jia Mu sneered and said: “If you don’t send it back at this time, is it possible that when the second wife finds out that the second grandma has lost her temper, she intends to pick up Baoyu and come here to watch a joke?”

The overall situation is the most important thing in everything, although she didn’t like Xu Qingheng who used her own people to make an example of others when she first arrived, but Jia’s mother would rather hide her dislike in her heart than let Mrs. Wang see the signs and make trouble.

“Hey, is Second Grandma going to send someone to persuade her?” Hu Po hurriedly stood up.

Jia’s mother pondered for a while, thinking that Jia Lian’s Jincai family, Yuanyang and others did not go to persuade him, so it was Jia Lian’s order, so naturally she didn’t have to go first, so she said coldly in her voice: “No one is allowed to go. How come Zilian’s second master’s people will go, and our people will go again.” In the world, either the west wind overwhelms the east wind, or the east wind overwhelms the west wind, Xu Qingheng and his cronies have betrayed their morals, her mother-in-law is naturally happy to see it happen.

“Hey.” Amber’s thoughts became shallower, she just followed Jia Mu’s orders, and confusedly ordered the little girls to ask the mother-in-law to prepare the sedan chair, and sent Baoyu, who was on the head, back to Mrs. Wang in the east.

Mother Jia was lying on the couch, feeling uneasy. After all, Xu Qingheng was going to come back tomorrow, so how could he really let it go? It has nothing to do with the name of “hanging high”.

In this case, even though Mother Jia didn’t go there, she was still thinking about this matter in her heart, always calculating when to send someone over, so as to make Xu Qingheng and her companion at odds, and make people praise her for putting the overall situation first.In order to ignore this matter, she summoned a group of maids and maidservants in front of her with great elegance, and pointed out what kind of screen, what kind of flowers, and what to put on when inviting Xu Qingheng and Jia Lian to tea next afternoon. Such refreshments.

After wasting some time, after noon, when she heard that Xu Qingheng was still there, Jia’s mother’s eyelids twitched slowly, and she suspected that Jia Lian and his wife were plotting against her. After all, the relationship between Jia Lian and Xu Qingheng was very good.

“What about the second master?”

“Back to the ancestors, the second master went out early in the morning to run errands, and finally came back once. He accompanied the second grandma to see the servants at home, and then went out again. It’s hard for him to be a newlywed.” Hu Po saw Jia’s mother on the couch. After being crooked for half a day, he stepped forward two steps to help her walk around the room.

“Second Grandma’s yard…”

“It is said that two elderly mothers have passed out.” Hu Po Tu Si Hu said sadly, seeing Jia’s mother frowning, she couldn’t help sighing, “I thought Second Grandma was a kind person…”

“Forget it, you invite the girls, and then invite Yuanyang, Jincai’s family, and Lin Zhixiao’s family to persuade them together. Just say that I have spoken, and ask the second grandma to look at my old man’s face, no matter how big it is, and first Let them be spared—the aunts on the Grand Master’s side are also invited to go.”

“Yes.” Yuanyang agreed. Seeing that Jia Mu was accompanied by someone else, she hurried out of the door and ordered Glass, Jade and others to quickly invite Yingchun, Xiangyun, Yuanyang and others. When a group of people gathered, everyone murmured Gu went to Xu Qingheng’s yard with different expressions.

Yesterday’s new house was still very lively. A group of people entered the courtyard. Because the servants were forced to stand, no one greeted them, so they were cautious. When a group of people walked down the steps, they saw Among the people who were punished, some of them were already frail, so they secretly shook their heads in their hearts, wondering what the character of the new second mistress would be.

“Second Mistress, the old lady has ordered refreshments and is waiting for you to go.” Logically, Amber is the maidservant next to Jiamu, who belongs to Jin Cai’s family, Lin Zhixiao’s family, and even the one who overwhelmed her earlier. Yuanyang couldn’t compare to her, but Hu Po was a little timid after being frightened by the crowd, her voice trembled a little, and she put aside her previous thoughts of joking with Xu Qingheng along with Yingchun, Yuanyang and others.

“Wait, I’ll go.” After a while, a non-salty word came out from the door.

“Let’s take care of grandma to clean up.” Yuanyang expected that no one was waiting for Xu Qingheng, so she quickly gave Yingchun a wink, ordered Siqi, Glass, etc. to fetch water, and then lifted the curtain. After Yingchun and Hu Po entered, they led Follow Jin Cai’s family and Lin Zhixiao’s family to go in slowly.

When everyone went in, they saw that Xu Qingheng had already opened the box, and picked out a red silk pleated skirt full of embroidery to change into by herself. As expected, there was no one waiting for her, so, together with Yingchun, everyone stepped forward to wait for her to change.

Lin Zhixiao’s family touched Hu Po’s shoulder, and seeing that Hu Po was silent, he said in a low voice, “You belong to the old lady.”

The implication is that even now, Yingchun can’t compare to Hu Po, who is close to Jiamu, with a style of speaking.

“Grandma, it’s a good day today, don’t get angry with them, just let them go.” Hu Po dryly advised, seeing Xu Qingheng’s cold face, she couldn’t say anything else, so she could only continue He took out Jiamu, “The old lady happily picked up the new granddaughter-in-law, let her know…”

“Why is Second Mistress feeling uncomfortable?” Seeing that Amber was speechless, Jia Amnesty’s concubine, Aunt Shi, asked carefully while cutting Xu Qingheng’s hair.

Aunt Shi always refused to go out, but thinking that her concubine hadn’t received the meeting gift from Xu Qingheng today, so Hu Po sent someone to invite her, and she also came over.

Although Xu Qingheng had met Aunt Shi, she had long forgotten her. Now she saw that Aunt Shi’s dress was different from that of Yuanyang and other wives. Although she was a bit older, she was dressed coquettishly, and there were many hairpins in her black hair, which matched the flowers Jiduo thought that this person was Jia She’s concubine, so she said, “My aunt doesn’t know, there was a repaired thing yesterday, and this morning they showed it to the second master in order to show their strength in front of the second master.” .As if I’m useless, just like they worry about everything.”

“It’s not a shame.” Yuanyang said with a smile.

“That’s not counting. Once they are tossed about things, they will have less toss. If they don’t punish them, they will say that anyone can touch my things.” Xu Qingheng laughed.

The mandarin duck had been instructed by Lin Zhixiao, but even though they came with Hu Po, they could talk nonsense, not saying a word of important things, so they also urged Hu Po to intercede.

Pian Hupo has never been good at words, and in the past when she was ordered by Jia Mu, no one would refuse to obey her, but today’s situation made her feel a little bit embarrassed, seeing the mandarin duck winking at her again, she had to ask: “Grandma is missing something. “

“50 taels of plum blossom silver ingots.”

“That’s also…” Hu Po smiled, and when she was about to say that she couldn’t do it, she saw the mandarin duck winking, so she had to keep her mouth shut.

Aunt Shi laughed and said, “Second Mistress is not angry about the lack of 50 taels, it must be that everything is missing, but the thief can’t be found.”

“Auntie’s words are reasonable, and this is what I’m so angry with.” Xu Qingheng thought in his heart that Jia Amnesty’s things should not be less. As for Auntie, there is no need to give them. He won’t listen to these aunts’ instigation, so Jia Lian likes her slack, Jia She doesn’t think she is slack, so, if she is slutty in the whole house, who can do anything to her?Thinking about it, he pointed to the bag of five or six calligraphy and paintings tied with silk ribbons on the cabinet in the inner room and a folding fan in a box, and said to Aunt Shi, “Please trouble Auntie, these are for honoring the old man, so Auntie will stop by.” Present it to the Grand Master for me.”

Aunt Shi couldn’t help being overjoyed, she hurriedly agreed and asked her little girl to hold the folding fan with calligraphy and painting, and didn’t leave immediately after holding the folding fan with calligraphy and painting, she felt that even if Xu Qingheng didn’t reward her, she should give it to her little girl Seeing that Xu Qingheng was silent, she wondered suspiciously that the maid who gave her the reward was standing outside as a punishment, so she didn’t reward her?

Puzzled and regretful, Aunt Shi went too.

Don’t everyone know Aunt Shi’s thoughts, especially Yingchun is more suspicious that Xu Qingheng was very considerate when he was not in the house in the past, but now he is negligent, and there is no meeting ceremony with Aunt Shi.

“It’s only 50 taels… I have to go back tomorrow, if they make trouble…” Hu Po watched Aunt Shi go out, then spoke again.

“It’s not the 50 taels that matter.” Yuanyang hurriedly gave Hu Po a wink.

“Forget it, don’t worry about them, don’t spoil the old lady’s interest.” Xu Qingheng said with a smile, after getting dressed, he went to make up again.

Hu Po couldn’t let her mind go, she followed the mandarin ducks to serve Xu Qingheng to make up, and gave Liuli a wink, telling her to tell Jia Mu quickly.

Liuli went out in a hurry, before Xu Qingheng finished her makeup, Liuli had already come over there.

“Grandma, the old lady said, she understands that grandma is not doing it for 50 taels of silver, but because people who are not angry with her will make their own way when they enter the door. The old lady said that she understands what grandma is thinking, and she just punishes them to let them know their mistakes. Tomorrow, an old lady in-laws asks, but it seems that our old lady doesn’t know how to teach the new granddaughter-in-law to be considerate of others.” Liuli finished speaking neatly, and then smiled and went to see Xu Qingheng, who looked extraordinarily virtuous and virtuous after finishing her makeup. , secretly sighing that this is what people should not look like.

Xu Qingheng was startled, and hurriedly said: “I was negligent and asked the old lady to recite the name for me. Now I have to go and apologize to the old lady.”

So first she was surrounded by people in front of the dressing table to fix her makeup, and now she took Yingchun’s hand and went out. After the curtain was closed, she walked out of the curtain and said to Yuanyang as if she still had some anger: “Look at this room.” If you don’t use the things in the library, take them back into the library, and in the future, I will only put those small things that are personal to me.”

“Yes.” Yuanyang quickly agreed.

Xu Qingheng felt a little guilty for being his own person, so he still pretended to be angry and followed Yingchun, Huber, Liuli, etc. to Jiamu’s yard.

As soon as she left, as she expected, all the daughter-in-laws in Jiamu’s yard came to persuade Xu Qingheng’s people, saying that grandma was young, that the old lady was considerate of you, and that you don’t need to mention it to the old lady in-laws so that she won’t be sad. After persuasion, it is some money and silk used to appease.

In the evening, when the sky was turning red, Xu Qingheng got away from Jiamu, and entered the yard a little tired, and walked through the yard to see the mandarin ducks standing behind the flowerpots with red peonies in front of the door, and Lima When Mammy spoke, she smiled at her.

“Grandma, I heard that the second wife also went there by giving the old lady and grandma some snacks?” Yuanyang asked cautiously, seeing Xu Qingheng nodded, and then took Li Nanny’s arm again, and said with a smile, “There is another one in the family.” An old lady surnamed Li, I’m afraid that someone will recognize the wrong person in the future.”

“How can I admit my mistake, your mother-in-law is a person who manages a lot of things every day, and my old bones can only wait for death with the blessing of my grandma.” Nanny Li laughed hurriedly.

“Mother, you are being humble now. We may not see the world you have seen in our lifetime.” Yuanyang smiled and saw that Xu Qingheng was not willing to talk, so he hurriedly said: “I have already followed Grandma’s instructions.” He ordered the house to be tidied up again, and the second master just sent a message that he won’t be back until midnight tonight, grandma just take a rest first, and he will come back when he’s done working.”

“Understood.” Xu Qingheng agreed lightly.

Nanny Li was unhappy in her heart, but she also kept a smile on her face. Seeing that Yuanyang was about to leave, she wanted to see her off. After Yuanyang refused, she watched her go out. Seeing Xu Qingheng standing in the corridor, she stood by her side and sighed. : “Grandma, don’t worry, our people have been appeased. They got the old lady’s things, and the mandarin duck’s things, and they are happy now. Isn’t grandma tired?”

“I’m overjoyed.” Xu Qingheng smiled. In front of him was a towering complex of buildings, red flowers and green leaves, which seemed to be similar to the Xu family, but his mood was completely different. “Thankfully, I took the first step. Killing chickens to warn monkeys implies that the whole house will not touch my dowry. Otherwise, I dare not think too much about what will happen in the future.”

“Could it be that the second wife opened her mouth just now?” Li Momo thought about Mrs. Wang’s family background, and felt that Mrs. Wang would definitely not show her face in such a hurry.

“Of course I won’t speak for myself, but I just mentioned something to me, saying that the Jia family has a big business, a large population, and many relatives. In the future, I will take care of those brothers and sisters-in-law of the same clan who live on the back porch. It can show that our Rongxi Hall is generous and compassionate. Hearing what she said, I turned the conversation back to the ignorant mother and daughter-in-law in the yard who donated my dowry without authorization, and she understood what I meant.”

“It’s a good thing that grandma killed the chickens to warn the monkeys first, otherwise she throws stones like this to ask for directions. If grandma meets her, it’s really hard to deal with it.” Madam Li sighed. No, it’s not wrong for Tanchun and Baoyu to help more when they start a family and start a business, but I’m afraid that if they open their mouths for a while, Xu Qingheng, a young woman, can’t compete with those old women like Jiamu and Mrs. Wang, who will be hollowed out.

Xu Qingheng took his hand to wipe the bracelet on his wrist, thinking that Jia Lian must think that she would stay up all night foolishly waiting for him to come back, so she would have to sleep soundly for him to see, “Nurse, I’m a little tired today, Make me some sleeping soup tonight.”

“Grandma really doesn’t wait for the second master to come back?” Nanny Li was taken aback.

Xu Qingheng sneered and said: “Get married and follow your husband, since he said that you don’t have to wait, then I won’t wait.” Let’s see what will happen if there is no one to support that person.
