Chapter 214 Resistance
Everyone said that the eldest wife was grounded, and it would be difficult to regain her foothold in the backyard in the future.
Actually, this is not the case.
When such a thing happened, other people have long been abandoned, and the old lady has two masters blocking it. Who can shake it?
The people do not fight with officials, let alone the business of Yufu needs to rely on the official position of the second master.
The old lady also understands this truth.
In order to win over the second master, even if he was forbidden, he had a generous gift and gave it to the second master as a thank-you gift that day.
However, the things were rejected and piled up in front of the old lady.
The old lady looked gloomy and asked Zhang's mother coldly, "What's going on? Did you say something wrong to annoy the second master?
Mother Zhang knelt down with a plop, shook her head and waved her hand repeatedly, and explained, "No, the maidservant put the gift in front of the second master. Before he could say anything, the second master waved his hand and asked the maidservant to take it back, saying that it was useless, and let you... let you take care of yourself." In the end, Zhang's mother lowered her head and almost spoke in a very low voice, afraid of angering the eldest wife.
The old lady suddenly slapped the table and stood up and asked, "Is this true? You didn't lie?"
Mother Zhang lay on the ground, curled up, played a trill, and said, "No... No, even if I borrow a bear bile, I dare not lie about this. The second master did say so. The maidservant wanted to say anything more, and the second master directly ordered someone to send the maidservant out. The maidservant...is the maidservant's incompetence. As soon as the words fell, Mother Zhang hit her forehead hard on the hard blue brick and made a muffled sound, which looked particularly loud in the quiet room, making the maids and women served outside the house unable to shrink their necks and subconsciously move out, as if they would not be angry.
The old lady fell down on the clinical kang, looked gray, and her whole body was like vegetables scalded by boiling water, with tingling and not angry.
"Madam..." Zhang's mother was heartbroken.
Anyway, the eldest wife is also the one who grew up, not to mention that the eldest wife is good, and her family will benefit from it.
Now that the eldest wife is like this, Mother Zhang is also very anxious.
The old lady stroked her forehead with her right hand and asked and answered tiredly: "Do you know why the second master is like this? Didn't he protect me before? Why did you change your attitude in a blink of an eye? With that, suddenly in the lightning, the old lady seemed to remember something. Huo stood up and stretched out her fingers to the courtyard of several aunts. She trembled with anger and asked, "Is it them?" Did they chew their tongues in front of the second master and say something to me? Isn't it?" As he spoke, he bent down excitedly, pulled Zhang's mother's collar with both hands, gritted his teeth, as if he was going to eat someone.
Mother Zhang was very scared.
She has never seen such a gaffe and such a crazy old lady.
In order not to get angry, she thought for a moment and echoed, "It is possible that those aunts are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they are eager for your bad luck. Especially in this matter, if the fourth aunt hadn't instigated Hongrui, the third aunt beat the drum beside her, and the second aunt fell into the well, how could you get the grudge of the master? The maidservants guessed that they would not give up when they saw that you were not abandoned by the master, so they each said your wrong in front of the second master. Isn't it a saying that three people become tigers? It is said that the second master may not care, but several people joined together to say that it is not certain. Even if the second master believes you in his heart, I'm afraid he has left something behind, so when he sees you give him a generous gift, he will refuse to leave.
The eldest lady listened carefully to Zhang's mother's analysis and felt that her words were reasonable, so she asked, "What's your good idea?"
Mother Zhang thought for a while and said, "Isn't men most afraid of pillow wind? Do you want the second wife to talk about it? Maybe it will work."
Hearing this, the old lady shook her head repeatedly and denied, "No, no! She can't!"
"Why...?" Zhang's mother asked puzzledly.
The old lady said, "It's not that you don't know that when this old lady was alive, she often compared me with her, praised her everywhere and belittled me. I'm not very happy with her. This time something happened, I went to her for help. I don't know how happy her heart is. How can I come over and humiliate myself?
Zhang's mother can't laugh or cry. At this time, the old lady still pays attention to her face.
She said patiently, "Madam, there are bumps between these lips and teeth, not to mention people. The second wife was born in an official eunuch family. At that time, the old lady was willing to suppress you with the second wife. As a daughter-in-law, how dare the second wife say anything? Didn't your mother-in-law say anything and what did your daughter-in-law do? Moreover, after so many years, the second wife is now an official wife, and you are the mistress of the Yu family. No matter what, you have to take care of each other's face, and you won't fail to sell your face.
Although what Zhang's mother said is reasonable, the eldest wife is still a little hesitant.
Mother Zhang simply took a strong medicine and said, "Madam, nowadays, everyone knows that the young master is not your own child. These two masters can resist for a while, but they can't stop the old man from trying to rest your heart. You have to make a good plan. There are a lot of family business in this mansion. Do you want to give up? People?"
No! Of course not!
Thinking that she designed Liang Qunfei and then married Yu Lingxuan, on the one hand, she took a fancy to the Yu family business.
At present, she can't get Yu Lingxuan's people and heart. She can't be empty-handed. She must take away the family business and must not take advantage of others.
Thinking like this, the old lady showed her polished eyes, eased her tone, and said to Mother Zhang, "Just do as you say and hold the second wife well." With that, after thinking about it, the old lady ordered, "The second wife is very arrogant. I'm afraid that we may not be willing to ask her to do things like this. We have to go step by step." She lowered her eyes and thought darkly, looked up at the furnishings in the room, and finally looked at the flowery yard. Then she said, "If we send some ordinary things, the second wife will look down on it. After all, she has been with the second master in office all year round. What good has she seen? You have to hit her heart as soon as you take action. After thinking about it, the eldest wife couldn't think of any appetite for the second wife. She asked Mother Zhang, "What's your good idea?"
Mother Zhang is overjoyed.
The old lady finally cheered up and suddenly thought of the most important thing.
She thought about it carefully and said, "Poor the hearts of the parents in the world. There is only one daughter under the second wife's knees, and this only daughter is almost fifteen years old. It's time to talk about a mother-in-law. From the perspective of the maidservant, it would be better for you to see which little princes around you are talented and outstanding in family background and introduce them to the second wife. Presumably the second wife will not delay her daughter's marriage for what she had happened. After a pause, he said, "No matter how much my daughter kisses, no matter how intimate the little cotton-padded jacket is, she is not as good as a son who can be passed on from generation. After so many years, the second wife has nothing but a young lady. The second master has no concubine now, which does not mean that she will not do it in the future. A man always wants a son. If you help the second wife on this, why don't you let her do things?
The eldest wife thinks Zhang's mother's idea is good.
It's just that this young man has excellent conduct and a good family background. Where can I find this? Not to mention the second wife giving birth to a child. If she has a way, can she become such a situation now? Zhang's mother's ideas all look good, but they are difficult to take action.
Mother Zhang has been observing the movement of the eldest wife.
Looking at her expression from joy at the beginning to her displeasure now, Mother Zhang was not sure and carefully asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"
The old lady snorted coldly and asked, "What do you think?"
"I... I don't know, please give me some advice." Mother Zhang said tremblingly.
"You don't know?" The old lady swept Zhang's mother fiercely and said coldly, "Can this little prince be found casually? Can a son be born casually? Didn't you mean to add my blockage?"
Zhang's mother is speechless.
Is the old lady mad?
Of course, she knew that it was impossible to do the little prince and the birth of a son, but it was just a thought for the second wife.
I have an idea. If I hang the second wife again, can she not be hooked?
But there are some words that she can't say as a subordinate, so she can only say vaguely, "Madam, as the saying goes, it's better to have hope than no hope. What the second wife wants now is a hope. As for the rest, we are not a gift."
Yes, I hope. What the second wife lacks is a hope.
The old lady smiled with satisfaction.
She was confused and ignored the most essential thing.
"It's up to you to do this matter. Remember to do it beautifully. After it's done, I'll give you a big reward."
Zhang's mother kowtowed a few times happily.
The old lady said again, "What about those aunts and that little bitch Hongrui? How's it going now?"
Mother Zhang licked her dry lips and replied, "Hongrui was detained by the master, saying that she had something to ask and could not be seen by anyone. As for several aunts, the eldest aunt closed the door and did not leave. The second and third aunts scrambled to come to the eldest master to pay attention. The fourth aunts were also detained and were not allowed to step out of the door. The fifth aunt came to the room several times, but hurriedly left.
"Is that so?" The eldest lady played with her well-maintained hands and said quietly.
"Madam, what's your idea?" Zhang's mother asked.
"Look at them carefully and settle accounts with them one by one in the future! By the way, I also sent someone to stare at Yu Shiyi. The little rabbit's wings are hard. It's time to clean up.
Mother Zhang respectfully retreated.
The eldest wife looked at the back of Mother Zhang's departure, revealing a bloodthirsty light.
It's natural to repay debts!
I, Liang Fangfei, am not a soft persimmon!
