Chapter 89 Picking Chestnuts
After looking down and thinking for a moment, Fuduo looked up and looked directly at the eldest wife. He said slowly, "Madam, do you know why those slaves made trouble?"
The old lady frowned and was very unhappy with Fu Duoduo's roundabout words. She said coldly, "If you have anything, just say it directly. Don't be careful in front of me!"
Fuduoduo said respectfully, "Yes", with a little flattering tone, and continued: "You are the host of Zhongfu. There is no big and small things in this house that can be hidden from your eyes. Those servants acted boldly, relying on the reason that they once served the old lady, and what you gave to the young master. For personal gain, they desperately broke into the young master's yard and disturbed the young master's nap. Do you think these people should be punished?
The eldest lady's eyebrows moved slightly, slanted her eyes and asked, "What on earth are you trying to say?" The tone is very impatient.
Fuduoduo knelt down and took a few steps forward, deliberately lowered his voice, and asked the eldest wife, "Forgive me for taking the liberty to ask, if the young master is hit by the servant you gave me, and then there is anything strange about his body, what should the people in this house think of you?"
What do you think?
The old lady snorted secretly in her heart.
Left just means that she treats her relatives and children harshly, and as a mother, she is not exhaustive...
Thinking of this, the old lady's face suddenly turned white, and her lips trembled gently, as if she were hiding great anger.
If Yu Shiyi really has any advantages and disadvantages because of those people, under the rendering of people with intentions, there may be some criticism. At that time, three people will become tigers, and if someone manipulates one or two, they can make trouble to the patriarch, and her mistress's position will be in danger.
The eldest wife was so angry that her chest kept fluctuating. She stared at Fuduoduo unkindly and said leisurely, "You have the heart to think of such a long time."
Fuduoduo replied sincerely, "Under the nest, is there a complete egg? This is for you and for yourself.
Hearing Fu Duoduo's words, the old lady's body was slightly soft and said, "You are honest."
Fu Duoduo smiled and said, "The cheap concubine is the young master's concubine, and the young master is your son. Only when you are good, the young master will be fine, and the cheap concubine can be stable."
Hearing this, the old lady looked a little pale and asked Zhang's mother to help her up and put the little son on her head and let Fu Duoduo sit down.
Fuduoduo refused and finally sat down.
Seeing that the atmosphere eased, Zhang's mother quickly made a new cup of tea, respectfully served it to the eldest wife, and said, "Madam, you have said such a good son's words. Drink a sip of tea to moisten your throat." Then, he personally made a cup for Fuduo.
Fuduo hurriedly got up and said some polite words with a very respectful attitude.
Mother Zhang received it with peace of mind and was very satisfied with Fuduoduo.
After taking a few sips of tea, the old lady eased a lot, but there were still hidden worries in her heart, so she said to Fu Duoduo, "Although you are kind-hearted, you have too many ways to deal with this matter. Do you know the consequences?"
Fuduoduo knew what the eldest wife was worried about, which was nothing more than afraid that several aunts would follow, and then disrupted her careful arrangements.
These have been considered as early as when dealing with those slaves.
Holding a hot teacup in his hand, Fuduoduo said extremely seriously, "The concubine is young and doesn't care much. She doesn't care about the consequences when her mind is hot. Please ask your wife to be a good concubine. In the end, the cheap concubine carried some curses, which deserved it. The words were cloudy, but Fu Duo believed that the old lady could understand. That is to pour all the dirty water on her body so that the eldest wife can get a good name.
Sure enough, the corners of the old lady's mouth rippled with a little smile and said, "You are reasonable, but..." With that, her body leaned forward slightly, and a trace of chill in her eyes shot straight at Fu Duoduo and said harshly, "It's just that people are not as good as heaven. You said that the servants assigned to those aunts are also Will they be kicked out like the gang that went to Fushouyuan, with their own identity and unruly eyes?
This is what the eldest wife is most concerned about.
At ordinary times, it is absolutely impossible for her to put several people in her second and third aunt's room. In a few days, she will use various reasons to bombard people out. Not to mention the new pregnant fourth aunt. As soon as she moves, the eldest master will notice that under the provocation of the fourth aunt, he thought that she was going to harm the child in the fourth aunt's belly, but the people who inserted the aunts this time are very different from the past. They are left by the deceased old lady. If she rushes them out, That is unfilial and disrespectful to the old lady, and no one dares to do it.
However, all this set a precedent for Fuduoduo, and all the people assigned to Fushouyuan were bombarded to Zhuangzi, which did not set a good example for the aunts who were ready to move.
At the thought of these things, the old lady was very angry and hated Fuduoduo very much.
Under the big lady's fierce eyes, Fuduo did not change his face and said firmly, "No! There are some things, not one has two.
Hearing Fuduoduo's affirmation, the eldest wife's eyes flashed with a little suspicion and a questionable "oh" sound.
Fuduoduo continued: "Presumably, the whole house is aware of this behavior of the concubine in the afternoon. Those subordinates assigned to my aunt's room will definitely abide by their duty and dare not overdo it. After all, no matter how unsatisfactory the house is, it is better than those in a remote village. What's more, those who are carefully selected, with bright eyes, know what to do and what to say. As for those aunts, even if they have that idea, there are mistakes in letting them catch them first, otherwise they will not act rashly, not to mention the example of a cheap concubine first? They will also think about one or two.
"You?" The old lady looked at Fu Duoduo in confusion, with a slight disdain in her eyes.
Fuduoduo knew that the eldest wife disliked her light weight, which was not enough to compare with anyone, but some things are not indisable as long as they work hard to create momentum.
After thinking about it, Fu Duoduo got up and knelt in front of the eldest wife and said very earnestly, "This matter is not well thought about. I also asked my wife to lower my status as a concubine to serve as an example!"
"You!" The old lady looked at Fu Duoduo in great surprise.
Others were also extremely stunned. They didn't expect Fuduoduo to do such a thing.
Chunfu gently pulled Fuduoduo's sleeves and shouted in a low voice.
Hongmei raised her eyebrows slightly and quietly looked at Fuduoduo's extremely resolute side face. She didn't expect Fuduoduo to be so affordable and let go.
Ignoring the views of the people around him, Fuduoduo said firmly again, "Please punish me!"
The corners of the old lady's mouth moved slightly, but she didn't decide for a moment.
Chunfu took the opportunity to plead for Fuduo and pulled Hongmei together.
Hongmei shook her head slightly to Chunfu and stopped her. What's more, she wanted Chunfu to support Fuduoduo with her.
Chunfu stared at Hongmei incredulously, and his mouth bulged with anger.
You should know that the distinction between a concubine and a cheap concubine is very large. The former will not do anything to Fuduo even if the main grandmother enters the door in the future, but the latter can let the young grandmother be happy if she wants to fight and sell it. How can this Hongmei be confused with her aunt?
Mother Zhang also felt that Fu Duoduo's brain was muddled and couldn't turn around.
No matter how unhappy the old lady is, she can't mortgage her own future like this. It's not for smart people.
At first, the eldest wife also thought so with Zhang's mother and Chunfu, but after thinking about it, she didn't think so.
Looking at Fuduoduo in a dazment, the eldest wife felt that she had seen clearly at this moment. She was not an ordinary person and had some courage and mind.
waved her hand to make Fu Duoduo get up, and the old lady said lightly, "I won't agree to your request. Your concubine has just been lifted up and will have a big banquet for you in a few days. I can't beat my mouth and make people gossip. What's more, your original intention is also for the sake of the world, and you should be well rewarded."
Fu Duoduo lowered his eyes and his eyes were slightly quiet. When he raised his head, he was full of fear.
The old lady continued: "It's just a compliment. You still have something wrong with this matter. It's too improper. But everything has a cause and a result, and it's not that they are the first to dare to rush into the young master and send Zhuangzi up, but after all, they are the people who used to be around the old lady, and they can't be so shabby in the end. With that, he ordered Zhang's mother, "Presumably they haven't left the house yet. You go to the account to pay 500 taels of silver, which is also my kindness to the old lady. You can't treat the people who have served her harshly."
Mother Zhang secretly gave a thumbs up to the eldest wife in her heart.
This move is really high. With the help of my aunt's hand, I not only sent out the annoying servants, but also won a reputation in the end.
said "Yes" respectfully, and Mother Zhang immediately went down to handle it.
After Zhang's mother went out, the old lady said, "You have merits and mistakes in this matter. Even if you resist each other, others don't see it so thoroughly. They thought that I was protecting you and didn't do things clearly, so I was fined three months and copied three copies of the Female commandments, which was a wake-up call for others. Of course, if someone doesn't learn to be good, they will go your old way. Fushi, do you know what it is to kill chickens and warn monkeys?
Fuduoduo knows the meaning of the old lady's words. If the aunts still chase those people out like her, she will wait to be the first person in the old lady's backyard.
took a deep breath, and Fu Duoduo said "understand" respectfully.
Seeing that Fuduoduo was like this, she had no intention to say more, so the old lady let them leave.
As soon as he stepped out of the dull house, Fu Duoduo was greatly relieved and finally passed this level.
Looking up at the four heavens, Fu Duoduo really wants to escape from this place immediately. He really lives too aggrieved. He should not only act cautiously, but also degrade himself to the Pacific Ocean and can't find it.
This is nothing, and it is even more uncomfortable to find yourself a scapegoat.
Alas...
With a long sigh, this is life. If you want to survive, you must rack your brains to think about how to live.
