By Jia Xiuzhen

That day, Xiuju fed Siqi with medicine, and saw that she had fallen asleep again, so she came out and said to Yingchun: "It is often said that people who are always in good health are seriously ill once they are sick; look at her again, never The most courageous one dared to run outside when it was dark, and immediately quarreled with someone who did not deal with him. As a result, after inquiring about it this time, he was frightened like this when he came back. Miss, didn’t Miss Si say she could draw symbols? I’ll go Ask for a requiem talisman and give it to her, I'm afraid I encountered something unclean in the garden."

Yingchun put down the book and said: "I told you not to be busy, and you will be fine if you listen to me earlier?"

Xiuju bitterly said: "Miss, what you said is too frivolous! We all know that many official media have come to our door. After careful calculation, it is not for the girl, but for the third girl. If it is a treasure hunter, it will naturally go to her house It's gone, and the others are gone. At least the third lady is watched by the second wife, and the girl here... let's not ask ourselves, who knows what will happen when the time comes. "

Yingchun sighed: "I just said you are stupid. You just went to inquire, so what can you do? Let's not say that what you can hear is just a few words they want to be heard, even if you listen to the other side very badly." Like words, so what? In the end, isn't it all about 'who knows what will happen'? Why bother."

Xiuju thought about it for a while, and sure enough, there was nothing to do.Mrs. Xing can dismiss what Jia pardoned?Not to mention that Mrs. Xing's waiting for Yingchun is just for saving face.Even if it is an old lady, Jia Amnesty doesn't necessarily buy it.The matter of the mandarin ducks last time, if he was really filial in his heart, how could there be anything behind?Even if the other end was set aside, he still said some cruel words.Isn't that dear the old lady's master?That's all.What's more, Jia's mother never treats Yingchun as well as others.

After thinking about it for a while, my heart was sour, and I forced a smile: "Fortunately, God has eyes. It sounds like a good family. The population is also simple, no better than ours. In fact, a little thing, after the hands of grandmas and mothers, it will be done. It has become a knife, you use it to stab him, he takes it to stab you, and it doesn't stop. The girl is not the third girl, I'm afraid the small family can't show her talent, it's the simple people... "

Yingchun looked at the embroidered oranges, the sound of the embroidered oranges became smaller and smaller, Yingchun smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have a reason."

Xiuju's eyes lit up, and then she stopped talking, and hurriedly packed up her things.

After a while, the mandarin ducks came. They heard that Siqi was ill, so they stopped by to have a look when they entered the garden this day.Xiuju smiled and said: "Sister, don't come to our place, let me see if Siqi is awake."

Go in and come out again, welcome the mandarin ducks in, pour another tea and serve it, come out by yourself to accompany Yingchun, and leave the two of them to talk.

Because there are so many official media coming to your door these days, and Mrs. Wang is not good at being good at it, so today she picked a few people with decent family backgrounds to show to Jiamu.The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted a few gossips, Mrs. Wang brought a few posts to Jia Mu and said: "The people who have come here for a few days are all asking the third girl. Those who ask about Yingchun are all sent to the elder sister-in-law. Yes. The old lady will help you take a look, although we are reluctant to part with them, we should take a look at them early."

Jia Mu took it and didn't look it over. She just put it aside and said, "I'm going to tell you about this. The second girl's matter is fine. Her mother decides on her own, and we can't ask about the third girl's matter." Then you can take it easy, the last time Nan'an Concubine came, she talked to me in private, but she really valued Sanya's intentions."

Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up, she thought for a while and then said suspiciously: "There...there is no suitable person in the palace? The son... I'm afraid I can't?"

Mother Jia nodded: "I thought about it too, if that's the case, I'm afraid it won't be our third girl's turn. Or the other people don't know. Another thing, the second son of his family is now guarding the south all the year round, or it's something about it. "

Mrs. Wang said: "The second son also got married two years ago, and there are two concubines..."

Jia Mu shook her head: "I mean it might have something to do with the south, so it's the second son. You don't have to worry too much, just find an excuse to get all the official media back. The third girl is still young and can help If you take care of the housework, you won’t be afraid to stay for a few more years.”

Mrs. Wang replied: "It's true that the master has been away from home for a few years, and it's easy to come back, so I can't bear to bear them. If there were not so many people coming to the door these days, I wouldn't dare to bother the old lady."

Jia Mu said: "If you don't ask me to talk about this, I also want to say hello to you after a while. It's okay if I haven't mentioned it. Now the concubine has come to see it in person and she is as clear as I said. , if we follow the relative closely to see someone, it doesn’t mean that we are being entangled, but it seems that we are deliberately getting out. It will inevitably offend people, which is not good.”

Mrs. Wang quickly agreed, and Mother Jia asked again: "What does the second girl say?"

Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "I heard from the servants that the Elder Master seems to have a promising family, but he has never said it clearly, and I don't know if he can do it right."

Jia Mu sighed, and after a long while, she said, "Let them go as the parents order and the matchmaker's words."

Mrs. Wang replied again in a low voice.Just when Sister Feng came, Jia Mu smiled and said, "It's so easy to delay for two days. You don't have to rest. What are you doing here?!"

Sister Feng said with a smile: "Just now the servants outside spread the word very much. I was afraid that the old lady would be frightened inside if she didn't understand it, so I rushed to tell the whole story before the tongue-twisting woman."

Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

Sister Feng said: "It's about Zhen's family. I don't know where the wind came from, saying that his house was ransacked. I was taken aback, and I quickly found someone outside to inquire about it. There was no such thing. It's just that the rumors are like imitations." It's decent, I was suspicious, and I asked people to check it carefully. I realized that it was his family who checked their own house, closed the door, and locked the courtyard. Something important. I don’t know if I’ve been looking for it or not, but the outside gang heard that it’s raining, so they spread the word that their house was ransacked. I don’t know what good they can get if Zhen’s house is ransacked, so they just hope.”

Jia Mu frowned and said, "There is a saying, 'If you don't go out for good things, you can travel thousands of miles with evil', that's what it says. Especially for people like us, it might be fine on the face of the master, but if there are no decent rules for the servants at the bottom , or careless, or wrong omissions, it is easy to produce big things. Look at the Zhen family, there is a lot of rumors outside the family, what is there to respect!"

Both Sister Feng and Mrs. Wang agreed closely.For a while, Tanchun Baochai and Baoyu came to talk with Jia Mu, and Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng resigned.

Along the way, Mrs. Wang asked Sister Feng about the Zhen family, and Sister Feng said, "I don't know how long ago it happened, but it's only now that it's been widely spread. I can't say exactly what it is."

Mrs. Wang was worried when she went back, so she sent another person to inquire, and then asked someone to come in and write a letter to Mrs. Zhen's family.Naturally, he would not mention such rumors, but just greeted him vaguely.

When Jia Zheng came in at night, he told Jia Zheng about Tanchun, and said, "Madam, let me wait first. I'll tell you tomorrow that the master just came back and was reluctant to marry his daughters, so I sent them all back."

Jia Zheng nodded, and said again: "The old lady must have a reason for what she said, so you can just do it."

Mrs. Wang didn't expect to complain at that time, and said: "Although I said that, I haven't heard what the concubine said, and I don't know what happened. Besides, if someone like that comes back this time, it will definitely not be the next time." If you are willing to come again, even if you miss it..."

Jia Zheng stopped and said: "There is no way to do both, there must be a distinction between seriousness and seriousness. Could it be possible to clearly offend Nan'an Palace?! Let's just do it."

Mrs. Wang had no choice but to agree, and added another sentence: "The old lady asked about the second girl's marriage again today. I also heard two words about the old man's visit to her, but she never said a word to us. Simply throw it away, after all these years of being raised here with us, there is no reason not to ask a single question. If you want to ask, how can we ask if people don't tell us."

Jia Zheng patted his knees and said, "Don't worry, brother is not a random person. You can wait, and you must tell us. Really... I'll ask Shan Pingren and the others tomorrow."

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she felt relieved when she saw that Jia Zheng had taken care of the matter.

Jia Zheng went to Aunt Xiao Zhou's place, and Jin Chuan'er went to Mrs. Wang's place to wait for Mrs. Wang to wash and rest after receiving the letter.As soon as he came out, he saw Caixia's sister Xiaoxia sneaking into the courtyard, went around twice, and only went to Aunt Zhao's place.Jin Chuan'er raised the corners of her mouth mockingly: "I thought he was a planner, but he turned out to be a blind guy. You can use an iceberg as a backer. When you cry..." The long-tailed voice sounded like Smile like sigh.

At Caixia's place, as soon as Jia's mother's birthday was over, Wang'er's son forced his mother to propose marriage to him all day long.Wang Er's family was recalled by Caixia Niang once, and she felt that she was not good-looking, so she was not willing to mention it again. She said: "At first, I only thought she was honest, but this time I inquired about it, honest ass! I had a relationship with Third Master Huan a long time ago." It’s over! You’re still holding on, what do you want such a slut? It’s not enough to make people laugh! You listen to me, stop worrying as soon as possible, wouldn’t it be good to change to a clean girl next to you?!”

The kid from Wang'er's family refused: "Mom, I don't want anyone but her! You don't know, since I saw her last time, I think of her every time I close my eyes, and I wish I could marry right away! You coaxed me that it was my wife who wanted to marry her, but now I see that my wife doesn't have that kind of thought, and you still don't obey me?! If you don't obey me, I won't get married, and you don't even want to have grandchildren!"

Wang'er's family turned upside down in anger: "You bastard, talking to your mother like that?!"

Ordinary people are mostly loving mothers and losers. In his family, the father dotes on his son more than the mother. After seeing this, he said: "Okay, okay, you can go and talk about it again, and if it doesn't work, go and ask the second master to agree with you." Second Mistress. I don’t believe it anymore, but the Second Grandpa and Second Mistress came forward, and his family can push back.”

The kid from Wang'er's family was overjoyed when he heard this, and he provoked his mother again: "Mom, you have always said how to gain face in front of Second Mistress, and leave all important matters to you. You are a very good confidant. Now even one who let go The girls who come out will not come, I think what they say on weekdays is just putting money on their faces for nothing!"

His mother listened to the boss slapping her ear, so naturally she didn't slap her. She just slapped her and scolded with a smile: "You brat dares to come and provoke your mother with just a few guts! It's done! Isn't she just an unclean girl, you Since you have to have her, I will arrange it for you. What's the problem! There is only one, don't blame me for not reminding you in advance, that girl has others in her heart, so she might be so proud, even if she gets married, she might not be right for you Make up your mind, then don't make trouble again!"

Wang'er was not happy when she heard this: "You mother-in-law! I asked you to tell me! Everyone has entered the door, who else can she pretend in her heart? Once she enters the bridal chamber and covers her with a big quilt, what else is there?" Don't be arrogant, you really underestimate our son."

Wang'er's family also rubbed the top of their son's head, seeing that his son was really outstanding, but said in his mouth: "You don't know that all the big maids in there think of themselves as decent girls, but they dare to make trouble. "

Even so, don't worry about it.The next day, after paying the interest and silver, I raised the matter with Sister Feng.Sister Feng felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so she just asked her to go to Caixia's house to propose marriage, and if it didn't work out, let's talk about it.

Seeing Wang'er's family come again, Caixia's mother had to deal with them, and waited for them to leave. Caixia came out from inside, pulled her mother and said, "Mother, you can't promise them."

Caixia glared at her: "You have made up your mind a long time ago. This family is not the two from yesterday. If we don't want them, we have no choice but to give up. This family is the dowry confidant of Lian's second grandma! That's all, if you are determined to marry you, who do you think we are, who can twist our arms through our thighs?! Don't bring trouble to the family!"

Said she shook her sleeves and left, Caixia went back to her room, sat by the window and cried sobbingly.But now that she has come out, she can't go in if she has nothing to do, even if she wants to ask Aunt Zhao.I had to send Xiaoxia, the girl who was working inside, to urge Aunt Zhao.

When Aunt Zhao heard this, she became even more anxious.Hearing that Wang'er's family wanted to marry Caixia, they naturally wished they could beat them back. They belonged to Lian's second grandma!But she couldn't help it, so she instigated Jia Huan: "Caixia helped us with a very important matter. If she follows others and feels evil, how about selling us someday? You just try to stabilize her, or I simply begged her to come with the master and his wife, and I was really safe."

Jia Huan was not happy: "She has gone out, seeing someone who is going to get married, I will say something! You don't want me to beg, I can't say this."

Aunt Zhao was in a hurry: "Are you stupid?! This woman is pretending to be something in her heart. Naturally, she only thinks about this person. This Caixia has you in her heart, otherwise she would not be able to do so many things for us. She is in the wife How many years have I been serving you, what do you not know? You have won her over, it is better than nothing!"

Jia Huan shook her head: "It's just a girl, I don't have to have her, she's about to marry, how do you want me to find her?!"

Aunt Zhao said: "Why can't you find her after she is married? If it's like this, how can Hu Tian, ​​Bao Er, Qin Youzi, and the former duo worms get any benefits?!"

Jia Huan was dumbfounded, and after a long time said: "I won't ask for it, you can't go to the sky if you say it." After saying that, he went to the study outside.Aunt Zhao was left in the room stomping her feet and scolding: "You worry-free thing! Bloodless behavior!" Yunyun.
