Chapter 295

After entering October, the weather became colder and colder, but occasionally she would walk around the palace and contact the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager. It seemed that the Empress Dowager was really good to her and often rewarded her with some small objects to play. Sometimes Liu Yuner, the fifth sister and the eldest sister will also bring their children to the Hou Mansion to play. She also need to take care of the rich flowers and the rice shop, so this life is not a leisurely life.

The only discomfort is that she always feels empty, and her yearning for Xiahouchen does not decrease but increases.

In December, Xinrong stopped going out to walk around. There was a heavy snow outside. She wore a Zhaojun hat on her head and a heater in her hand, looking at the snow outside the window.

Although the silver wire carbon in the room is burning vigorously, it has no smell. On the contrary, the furniture of yellow pear wood exudes a faint fragrance of wood.

The Prime Minister's mansion was as harmonious as ever. I don't know what method Prime Minister Liu used, but he didn't let the Prime Minister's wife find something strange. Prime Minister Liu also went to court as usual and then went home. There is nothing left about her business in Prime Minister Liu's mansion.

"Madam, someone from Xue's house is here! It's Liu's mother in front of Mrs. Xue!" The painting fan walked into the room and said respectfully.

Her heart tilted her head. It snowed so heavily today. Why did Mother Liu come to Anguohou Mansion?

"Let her in!" She said lazily that it has been very cold recently, and she really wants to sit in the room.

Zhuer made a needle and thread by the fire. Seeing her heart shrinking her neck, she said with a smile, "Madam, since you are so afraid of the cold, please close the window. The cold wind blows too much. What if you catch a cold later?"

He said softly, "Don't say it, if you really get it right, you will become a crow's mouth!"

"Madam, how can you talk about slaves like this!" Zhu'er stared at his face.

When I closed the window, I suddenly felt much warmer and walked to Zhu'er with a smile, "Your belly pocket is beautifully embroidered, but unfortunately my embroidery has always been not good. The close-fitting clothes I wear are made by Yao's mother. Over the years, Yao's eyes have not been very good, and she has done fewer things."

"My wife is kind. Yao's mother can now enjoy her old age in peace. She wants to go abroad to see her painting screen and leave the house, and she also holds her grandchild. It's really enviable. Feng's mother also has to live a good life. Now she is in charge of the kitchen, but she doesn't cook often. Those days are much better than us maids. Zhu'er said enviously.

"As long as you are in front of me, you can't retire like this in the future. What are you so sad!"

Seal put down the needlework in her hand, looked at her heart sadly, and said, "I haven't even found my husband's house now!"

Looking at the resentful seal, he smiled crookedly, "Which maid is as bold as you? If you dare to marry your master, I will see if I don't treat you well in the future."

"Don't, my maidservant has been with you for so many years, even if there is no credit, there will be hard work!" Zhu'er was anxious and said quickly.

It's also true. Zhuan'er will be 17 years old during the Spring Festival, but she hasn't helped her find her husband's family. No wonder Zhuan'er is anxious.

"Don't worry, I'll watch it for you. How can I make you suffer because you and the painting fan have been with me for so long? I have asked Yao's mother and Feng's mother to find your husband's family for a long time. They are two people who have been there. Besides, I have to open my mouth when it is finally settled!"

got the meaning of the face, and the seal's eyes lit up.

"But you have to train the little maid below. When you leave with the painting fan, if I don't have a good maid in front of me, I won't be so easy to talk to!"

"How can it be? It's been ** for a long time. I'm just waiting for you to choose a few to come here." Zhu'er said.

At this time, the painting fan lifted the curtain and invited Liu's mother in. Liu's mother smiled respectfully at the painting fan before entering the inner room. After all, the painting fan is not the maid of Xue's house, and it is normal for Liu's mother to do this.

When she was outside, Liu's mother heard the laughter from the room. Now that she saw Xinrong, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xinrong. When Xinrong made her get up, she stood up properly.

Suddenly, he looked up and saw his forehead leaning lazily on the soft couch. He sighed in his heart that although his appearance had not changed, his temperament had changed. Even the second and third wives in the house were not so dignified.

"Painting fan, give Liu's mother a seat. It's hard for you to come to the house on such a cold day. The last sentence is said to Liu's mother.

Zhu'er put the needle and thread basket on the Xiaozi, picked up the teapot and added tea to Liu's mother. Liu's mother was blessed and sat on the chair, but did not dare to sit still. She picked up the tea and took a sip of it. Her whole body warmed up, and then said, "The second wife asked me to tell you that Aunt Xue passed away last night!"

His hands stiffened, raised the teacup and took a sip of tea without a trace. He swallowed the tea and said, "It's difficult for you to go for this."

"I have been out of Xue's house for a long time, and the second wife doesn't have to tell me about it!"

Liu's mother was embarrassed and didn't expect her to say this.

Indeed, Xinrong is already a married girl, and she should not have taken care of Xuefu's affairs. It's just that Aunt Xue's incident in those years was not a trivial matter.

He took a breath and said lightly, "My brother is still young. If I listen to gossip that I shouldn't listen to in the future, the second wife will be sad again."

Mother Liu stood up tremblingly and said politely, "What my wife said is that Aunt Xue has passed away, and this time it really has nothing to do with the second wife."

smiled and said, "Mom Liu, sit down first. Aunt Xue has enjoyed the blessing for at least two years, but my brother has always been raised in front of Aunt Xue?

"I have always been taken care of by Aunt Xue, but I stay in the second wife's room for three or five days a month."

"That's enough. Let the second wife have a good time and raise her brother. I should understand it in the future!" How can I not understand the tricks here? Aunt Xue fell ill when she gave birth to a child, and her body was not very good. As long as she was a little tired and adjusted her diet a little, it would be strange if she didn't die. How can the second wife tolerate the snowy aunt? It's just that she couldn't calm down and didn't do it after the child was sensible.

Liu's mother came here to talk about this matter. I'm afraid that if the child doubts it in the future, she will take her out.

Seeing that Xinrong didn't understand, Liu's mother was worried and scared. When she was in Xue's house, she didn't feel that Xinrong was powerful, but after saying such words, she felt that it was a wise choice not to offend Xinrong at the beginning.

"When my brother grows up, let him take the imperial examination, so that the second wife can rely on him. Don't be wrong. Xue's house is now only supported by the third uncle. By the way, I heard that the twelveth brother Jinyu took the Tongsheng exam some time ago.

"The twelfth brother is promising. The third master asked the twelfth brother to prepare for a year to take the Xiucai exam."

Xinrong nodded: "But I have to prepare the twelfth brother well. I guess he can go to the national prison to study!"

She vaguely remembers that when she was a child, the 12th brother was a little shy and didn't like to talk much. He was three years younger than her. It was good to be admitted to Tongsheng at this age. If he can be an official in the future, Xue's house will not make any bigfalls, but there are too few children of the Xue family.

"Go back to your second wife, just say that I know about this and let her relax!"

"I know!" Liu's mother answered.

Later, she hesitated, but still asked, "Madam has news about the tenth brother. The second wife really misses the tenth brother."

Shake his head, "I haven't heard from the tenth brother for a long time. Although the second wife still misses the tenth brother, what she can do before is too hurt the tenth brother after all. Hey... Why did you have to do it at the beginning!"

There was also a little sadness on Liu's mother's face. When she was in Xue's house, the tenth brother was lively, but he was sensible and filial to the second wife. Hey, why did this matter at the beginning?

Liu's mother got up and said, "Madam should also go to Xue's house to sit down when she is free. After all, she is the daughter of Xue's house. What's more, the old lady hasn't been very well since the beginning of autumn. There is nothing wrong with saying something she shouldn't have said!"

My heart rubbed the cup and said faintly, "I will go back to Xue's house after the Spring Festival. At that time, the daughter married by the Xue family would have gone back if she was in the capital."

Liu's mother was very grateful and said, "I thanked the lady for the old lady and the second wife."

With a smile, "Painting fan, go to the account room to pay two taels of silver. You can send Liu's mother out."

Liu's mother was excited. On the way to Anguohou Mansion, she thought about thousands of scenes. After all, Xinrong was too stiff with the old lady and second wife of Xue's mansion at the beginning, and she didn't expect Xinrong to be so easy to talk. Liu's mother prayed in her heart, "Auntie is kind, and God should bless her."

After the painting fan came back, I was a little unhappy. Seeing that my mood was not good, I asked, "Madam, why do you add obstacles to yourself?" We have all come out. What are you doing in Xuefu?"

Xinrong sucked her nose, and the painting fan went from a rough maid to Xinrong's side. She also suffered from the pain of her heart. Naturally, she had no feelings for Xuefu.

"After all, my wife is the daughter of Xue's house. I will definitely go to Xue's house after the Spring Festival. They are not kind to us, but we can't be unrighteous to them. People outside pay attention to reputation, and we can't let our wife have a reputation for being unfilial. Anyway, this face must be enough. Zhu'er said.

"You came out in front of the old lady, and naturally help the old lady talk." The painting fan said angrily.

"Where is it? It's a fact! The wife is uncomfortable. Could it be that the maid wants her to be uncomfortable? The retort said.

"Okay, you two, don't quarrel!" He was very upset and scolded, "You two are kind to me. I know that I have my own opinion on this matter. Don't talk about it anymore."

"It won't be long before the end of the year. What should be done has to be done. My parents-in-law are going back home for the Spring Festival. Do you want the two old people to see that our house is not prepared?" Rong said angrily.

The painting fan and seal stopped talking. Knowing that they had crossed, they did not dare to provoke their feelings, so they blessed their bodies and said in unison, "Go and prepare!"

Seeing the painting fan and seal leave the room, she smiled bitterly. Relatives, no matter how annoying she is and doesn't want to contact them, they are still relatives. She doesn't want to pay attention to her mother's family, but it's still her mother's family. It's not that she can break the relationship.
