Chapter 203 Being the Mother
After explaining a few words to the maid Xiaoyuan, Xiaoyuan nodded and retreated. The woman closed the door and quickly walked back to the room.
"Madam, the little lotus is gone." As soon as she stepped into the door, she raised her eyes and saw Mrs. Yan holding Buddha beads in one hand and turning over the scriptures in the other. Her expression was solemn and serious, which made people dare not disturb her loudly. The slender fingertips were exposed from the cuffs of the dark purple cloud flower brocade round neck, and slowly moved the string of Buddha beads made of 54 black gold bodhis in his hand, each of which was like a golden toad, uniform in size and bright color. It seemed that she didn't hear the woman's soft call. Her lips moved slightly, and her eyes fell straight to the end with the beautiful and dexterous font. She said a Buddha's name to be complete.
"Did you let the little lotus stare?" Mrs. Yan's eyes were narrow, and the slightly raised corners of her eyes made people look afraid to be close, but she laughed, but the corners of her eyes also flew gently.
The woman standing in front of Mrs. Yan is her companion Lin, and her husband is an honest groom. When he gets old, he stays in the horse box in the outer courtyard to raise horses for Yan Kaizhi. Although Lin is Mrs. Yan's companion room, she does not often stay with her. In her impression, Mrs. Yan either enters the palace or hides alone in the room to recite scriptures, which is inexplicably awe-inspiring.
Lin respectfully reported the letter to Mrs. Yan, looked at her eyebrows as light as the breeze, couldn't figure out her thoughts, and asked worriedly, "Mrs., do you think Madam can do it?"
Mrs. Yan was a little distracted, "What can work? Oh, are you afraid that she can't solve the problems of Xu Yong's and Pontin's family.
Lin nodded seriously, "Yes, after all, my husband has just passed the door, and neither side is easy to deal with." It's not that she looks down on Shaohua. It's really hard for the two people to move. Even if Mrs. Yan comes forward, she can only be a peacemaker. If you want to punish them all, I'm afraid it will be more difficult to deal with the things involved.
Mrs. Yan smiled gently and smiled leisurely at Lin's trembling expression, "It's just not easy to deal with and throw it to her." Lin suddenly stopped laughing when he heard her, and his voice became colder. "At the beginning, for the sake of Xu Yong, he was also highly regarded as an only son. If he hadn't been too old, I would have planned to put him by Kaizhi's side. In the past few years, I would have let him go out and run around. His heart has run wild. I really don't dare to touch him.
Lin hurriedly agreed: "Madam, you are the heart of a Bodhisattva. No one in this bastard depends on his face." Hey, why hasn't she been with her master for a year? Her mood has changed a few times faster, and she can't keep up.
Mrs. Yan ignored her perfunctory and sneered, "Bodhisattva's heart, hehe, if it hadn't been for Kaizhi's running around and still need him, I would have cleaned him up. And his daughter-in-law, I remember that she was a kind and honest person a year ago. Why did she change?
Seeing Mrs. Yan turning her inquiring eyes, Lin was a little helpless. In the absence of the masters, they were not living in the same place at all. How could they know what had happened?
"I think that the Pang Ding family is the person from the General Affairs Office, and I'm afraid of being suppressed, so I'm bold." Lin carefully guessed.
Afraid of being suppressed? I'm afraid it's not that simple. Mrs. Yan's eyes fell on the scriptures and suddenly became warm. "It's best for her to practice if she can solve it, otherwise she has to remind her that marrying Kaizhi is not as easy as she imagined." As she is willing to work so hard for Kaizhi, she is also worthy of her cultivation.
Shaohua listened to Youhan's report all the way, and his heart was blocked, and suddenly understood why Mrs. Yan asked her to deal with it. Such a hot potato is actually a trivial matter, and she is not afraid to burn her to death. On the one hand, the family has children, and on the other hand, she relies on the emperor's kindness. If it goes on like this, how can the people she brought from the Li family survive? Shaohua suddenly felt a little glad that he didn't agree to Mrs. Xin's words and took over Dabao Xiaobao and Baoer, otherwise it would have to be a pot of porridge.
Stepping into the servant's yard, a group of people were listening to the two women's shrill quarrel. When some knowledgeable people saw Shaohua coming, they hurried to make their debut and secretly hid while watching.
Youhan stood up, put his hands on his waist, and shouted, "Don't quarrel. Didn't you see Madam coming?"
The two women closed their mouths reluctantly. A plump woman in a gorgeous blue coat stepped forward and made a respectful salute to Shaohua: "Madam, all the best."
But before the woman of Huaqingzi straightened up, the woman with red flowers on a white background looked only about 35 years old. She rushed over with a tearful face, pounded her chest and stamped her feet, and shouted to Shaohua, "Madam, you have to make the decision for me." Shaohua was almost jumped by her, but fortunately, a young man stood up and stood in front of her.
As soon as she heard that the other party was strong first, she was not willing to show weakness. She secretly pinched her thighs and squeezed out a few tears. "Madam, madam, I'm wronged."
"If you are wronged, then I am more wronged than Dou E."
"Well, you take over everything, and you still have the face to say grievances!"
The two did not give in to each other, ignoring Shaohua's angry face and pretending to continue to quarrel.
Originally, Yan Kaizhi could not come back to accompany her earlier, and she was already depressed. Unexpectedly, there were two people who were not afraid of death to provoke her irritability. Shaohua raised his voice and roared sharply, "Calm down! If you really want to quarrel, just give me two hours and can't stop for a moment. Chu He, bring me a stool, and I'll sit here and listen.
"Yes, madam." Youhan, who was so familiar with Shaohua's nature that he could no longer be familiar with, immediately agreed, swept the two people who looked at each other in contemplation, and ran to move the stool with a good face.
I can't figure out the bottom of the new master. I thought that the new daughter-in-law was delicate, especially the wife of the Li family, who came from a scholarly family, might have no idea when she was anxious. Unexpectedly, Shaohua burst out such a sentence, which made them quarrel or not.
Youhan moved a spring stool from nowhere, put it beside Shaohua, swept it away, and carefully helped Shaohua sit down.
He sat down and calmed down. Shaohua looked at the woman who was more than a child in age and said lightly, "Continue, I'm very supportive. I came to listen to your quarrels."
Hua Qingzi's woman opened her mouth first. She straightened her clothes and her voice seemed clear. "Madam, that's not what I said. Who would like to quarrel with people like her? At least we are the people allocated by the General Affairs Office, which was given to the marquis by the emperor, but we don't have common knowledge as these people. With that, she glanced at Xu Yong's daughter-in-law disdainfully, and she was so angry that she almost burst out again.
Shaohua deliberately raised his voice, showing a sudden enlightenment. Oh? So you are the one given by the second master.
Pang Ding's daughter-in-law thought that Shaohua was going to give her a long face, so she immediately moved out of her relationship. "Yes, madam, we were originally working for the General Affairs Office. My man's godfather is..."
But when she didn't finish speaking, Shaohua rudely interrupted her: "Do you know where you are now?"
Pang Ding's daughter-in-law was stunned, "In Xingyong Houfu."
Shaohua showed a sweet smile that was harmless to humans and animals, which made Chu He and Youhan secretly sympathize with Pang Ding's daughter-in-law, "Then who are you talking to now?"
However, Pounding's daughter-in-law still didn't know anything and naturally replied, "Of course it's you, madam." Hearing this, Shaohua nodded with satisfaction.
Just as she smiled happily, Shaohua's expression suddenly stopped and stood up. Her voice was gentle but without stopping. The words pointed to Pang Ding's daughter-in-law. Hearing this, she suddenly sweated profusely and did not dare to vent her breath loudly. Since you know that you are now in Xingyong Houfu and talking to me, what on earth do you want to do when you move out of the emperor, out of the general affairs office, and out of your godfather? Do you want me to bring you up, three columns of incense in the morning and evening? Shaohua turned his words and said, "I don't care what your identity was before. I want you to remember that this is the Marquis of Xingyong now, and your master is the Marquis of Xingyong. If you have any dissaccept in your heart, you can come and tell me at any time. I'll ask the marquis to send you back, so you don't have to come here to be wronged.
"Madam, I..." If it only made her feel shocked and angry at the beginning, the following words made her tremble all over and make her sweaty.
Obviously, she is just a little girl, and her words are so sharp, but on second thought, everyone knows that the relationship between Xing Yonghou and his wife is extremely deep and they sing happily at night. At this time, she was at the time when the new official took office three times. If she angered her and was really sent back to the General Affairs Office by Xing Yonghou, I'm afraid that the people above them would have no face.
While Pounding's daughter-in-law was in trouble, Shaohua turned his head and looked at Xu Yong's proud daughter-in-law. Unlike Pounding's gentle voice, she asked plainly, "You didn't send it from any government, did you?"
Xu Yong's daughter-in-law shook her head and waved her hand with a smile. She couldn't stop her from opening her. No, no, no, madam, I am the son of this family. My father-in-law fought a war with my uncle and died outside. It was the decentness given to us by the old lady and the marquis. We also sincerely served the marquis and his wife.
"It turned out to be a family." Shaohua nodded.
"Yes, yes, madam, we are a family." Xu Yong's daughter-in-law smiled brightly and blinked flatteringly at Shaohua.
Shaohua smiled and looked at her eyes as if there was a little expectation, so he said sweetly, "Since you are a family, you quarrel with others here. Do you think I'm too bored or do you mean to cause trouble for me?" Xu Yong's wife's face changed and she shook her head desperately.
"My husband and madam, I didn't." Xu Yong's daughter-in-law secretly regretted that she should not be too proud. She thought that Shaohua had criticized Pang Ding's daughter-in-law for giving her a long face, but she didn't expect her to have an operation together.
However, seeing that Xu Yong's daughter-in-law was also scolded by Shaohua, Pang Ding's daughter-in-law was also a little better, and she couldn't help sneered at her depressed expression.
Shaohua glanced at everyone present and had their own thoughts. Obviously, Shaohua's practices were mixed. She didn't care. She breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the crowd with fixed eyes. Now, who will tell me why you are quarreling?
"This..." Somehow, everyone was silent tacitly. Look at me, I look at you, as if there was an agreement. And the two parties were even more haunted and lowered their heads, refusing to speak.
"You don't say that, do you?" Shaohua sneered in his heart, and there was really something fishy. "Which of you knows? The first person to say it will be rewarded with ten taels of silver."
When it came to money, everyone immediately talked about it like an explosion.
"Madam, I know!"
