Although what Chen Yuan did wrong has nothing to do with Ding Page, and the responsibility will not be investigated on Ding Page at all, after all, the kinship between them is there. If Aunt Shen knows about this matter, it is bound to make a big deal.
After sending Hao Ling away, Ding Niazi went to say peace to the old lady. He was a little worried and was also psychologically prepared to be scolded. Although the fish in the pond is not what she wants, it is also inevitable.
Fortunately, maybe no one has mentioned Chen Yuan to the old lady. When Ding Yi went to greet the old lady, the old lady still looked warm and kind. She asked her about how she slept well last night, how her appetite was, how her body felt and so on.
Ding Page answered one by one with a faint smile. He knew very well that he was blessed by the child in his womb. Otherwise, with her qualifications, how could she enter the old lady's eyes? When the old lady just returned home, her attitude towards her had always been salty, which made her think that she had a potential hidden danger and worried that the old lady had the same idea as Aunt Shen.
Coming out of the old lady's yard and passing the door of Aunt Shen's yard, Ding Yizi hesitated for a while, and he was inevitably a little embarrassed.
Thinking that she just gloated and ran to see Aunt Shen's jokes yesterday, she didn't expect that the person who made a joke today became herself.
Master Hao may not tell Chen Yuan's story because he is afraid that the old lady will worry about it, but Hao Yu is very likely to tell Aunt Shen about it.
Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to Aunt Shen's yard, Ding Yizi's pace also became slower, and he sighed secretly in his heart. If she knew that such a thing would happen today yesterday, even if she didn't deal with Aunt Shen, she would not go to see Aunt Shen's jokes so loudly, which made her situation extremely embarrassing today.
Somehow, Xiaoju, who had always been serving in Aunt Shen's room, was standing under the eaves of the corridor. When she saw Ding Yizi coming, she saluted respectfully and said with a smile, "Is the young lady here to say good-in? Madam has just sent away the stewers. Let's go in and sit down, young lady.
Ding Yizi was still hesitating. When he heard Xiao Ju's words, he knew that Aunt Shen deliberately sent Xiao Ju to wait for her, and he was afraid that she would escape back.
Helpless, Ding Page exhaled deeply and went to Aunt Shen's room.
Nine cold days, the outside of the room is cold to the bone, but the inside of the room is warm and harmonious, which directly teaches people a feeling of drowsiness.
When Ding Niazi entered the room, he found that in addition to Aunt Shen, Hao Lingwei was also there.
He respectfully greeted Aunt Shen and greeted Hao Lingwei with a faint smile. Ding Yizi just sat down on the chair beside him. The special warm cushion was very thick. As soon as he sat up, his whole body sank down, giving people a feeling of being surrounded by warmth.
"Page, how do you feel good today?" Aunt Shen looked at Ding's page with a faint smile, looking as usual, and the surface was full of effort.
Ding Page also nods with a faint smile and said, "Thank you for your concern. It's okay. Maybe she's just pregnant, so I don't feel anything."
"Ye also, but there are only a few good days." Aunt Shen nodded, covered her mouth and smiled, "When I was pregnant with Yuer and Lingwei, I vomited so much that I couldn't eat anything. Fortunately, the master loved me and sent good things to my room like running water, which made Yuer and Lingwei healthy when they were born."
Ding Page pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, with a smile on his face, as if he was envious of Aunt Shen.
I think about it, but I feel a little funny. What does Master Hao have to do with her kind to him? Even if she wants to show, she should show it to Wan Niang, right?
Aunt Shen played with the exquisite hollowed-out hibiscus carved copper hand stove in her hand. Yan Yan Yan looked at Ding Yizi and asked slowly, "Xiaozi, a few months ago, when you married Hao Mansion, you also brought a lot of dowry, right?"
Ding Page doesn't know what it means, but her dowry is mostly true, although it is not her thing.
She nodded and said, "It's okay. It's just a few farms, two or three shops."
Aunt Shen smiled and said, "For Hao Fu, your dowry is indeed a little shabby. However, your Ding family is just a tofu seller. It's really not easy to save so much dowry for you. I'm afraid that several relatives have been emptied by you, right?
Ding Page's face changed in an instant, and now he understood the meaning of Aunt Shen's words. This is sarcasmating her in disguise.
Just as she was about to reply, Hao Lingwei said with a smile, "Isn't it? Some people in the world really don't make people understand, and they don't know what they think. Obviously, there is not much family business, but they still have to be swollen and fat. It's good now. It's a shame.
The smile at the corners of Ding's mouth could no longer hang. He fell down, but his expression was trying to pretend to be indifferent. After all, she is not the one who made the mistake, and she doesn't have to be too ashamed.
Aunt Shen glanced at Ding's page and said with a faint smile, "Page, the dowry you brought at the beginning is your own money, which is to be left to your child with Hao Ling in the future. You can't give it to others at will."
Ding Xiaozi pulled up the corners of his mouth, but he looked like he was smiling. "I'm sorry to worry about this. I still understand this."
Aunt Shen nodded with a satisfied smile. Suddenly, she stretched out her hand and groped for a silver hairpin on her head and pulled it out. She looked at it carefully several times reluctantly and painfully. Then she raised her head and said to the Ding page and said, "Page, your dowry on your side is too difficult to move. I'm afraid your mother's family can't afford the rice shop at once. Loss, we are all a family, and those who can help each other should help each other. Come on, my aunt gave you a silver hairpin and asked you to go back to subsidize your mother's family. Don't do such an ugly thing in the future and lose the face of Hao Fu.
As she spoke, Aunt Shen stretched out her hand and made a distant posture to pass the silver hairpin to Ding Page.
How much is a silver hairpin worth? Aunt Shen's move was obviously humiliating her.
Xiaoju was very supportive and immediately came forward to take the silver hairpin in Aunt Shen's hand, and then sent it to Ding Page.
Ding's face is as black as the bottom of the pot. If it hadn't been for the strict ancient etiquette, Aunt Shen would have been her elder. She couldn't lose her face at all. She was really going to leave!
Seeing Ding Yizi wringing the handkerchief in his hand hard, his face was ugly. Hao Lingwei seemed to feel that it was not enough, so he withdrew the silver bracelet on his wrist, handed it to Ding Yizi from afar, and said with concern, "Sister-in-law, if my aunt doesn't give you enough, I will give you this silver bracelet, although it's not worth anything. There is no money, but at least it can be supplemented.
The Dai He beside Hao Lingwei quickly took the silver bracelet and also sent it to Ding Page.
The two maids stood one by one, one holding a silver hairpin and the other holding a silver bracelet. Although they seemed to be respectful, the contemptful smile on their faces could not be hidden.
Ding's page pulled the corners of his mouth and reluctantly smiled, "I'm sorry to bother my aunt and Lingwei care about it. Since I'm already from Hao Mansion, I'm naturally going to Hao Mansion. My brother didn't do anything about my mother's family. What does it have anything to do with me? Don't bother your aunt and Lingwei to spend money. You'd better keep such valuable hairpins and bracelets by yourself.
Aunt Shen sneered and said with Hao Lingwei, "Lingwei, you see, people still think that what we gave is worthless. Tut... After all, he is a person with a rich dowry. How can he like our things?
Hao Lingwei said calmly, "What my mother said is that people's eyes are high, and they should not like our things."
He glanced at Ding Yi's page coldly, and Hao Lingwei said, "Sister-in-law, I'm a sister, and you should not pay attention to this. However, your mother is your elder. As the saying goes, the elder can't give up, and the silver hairpin is also your mother's heart. That's how you treat it?
Hao Lingwei fiercely taught Ding Yizi's army, which also made her have no room for refutation.
Ding's page trembled angrily. Since the marriage these days, although she doesn't like Aunt Shen, she has never done anything excessive to her. She has always adhered to the principle of not offending me and I don't want to openly stand against Aunt Shen, but Aunt Shen's behavior today is really too much!
Ding Niaozi has known that she has to rely on herself since she was a child. She has faced many situations that embarrass her more than this, but didn't she come down well? Those situations that once embarrassed her are just a nutrient for her rapid growth, and now Aunt Shen and Hao Lingwei's methods are even more delicate.
She restrained her mind and looked embarrassed just now. She smiled faintly and said to Hao Lingwei, "Lingwei, what you said is also reasonable. However, although it is a gift from the elders, we have to see what it is. The silver hairpin is the thing on my aunt's hair, and it must also be my aunt's favorite thing. What should I do if I take it back to my mother's house and get it by someone with my heart? What should I do? In addition, although my mother's family is not rich, my little brother has craftsmanship, so he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. You don't need to worry about your aunt and Lingwei.
Ding Page suddenly frowned, covered his abdomen with his right hand, and took a low breath. "Auntie, my stomach is a little uncomfortable. I'm afraid the child in my abdomen doesn't want me to continue to sit."
With that, Ding Page stood up, and the uncomfortable look on his face suddenly became much better.
Aunt Shen raised her eyebrows and said, "It doesn't matter. This silver hairpin has not been engraved with any marks. They are ordinary objects. Since it is given to you, there is no reason for me to take it back. Otherwise, if it is known to others, I think I can't bear to part with a silver hairpin. Since you feel uncomfortable sitting here, go back to rest early. It's important to have a safe place.
After saying that, she didn't wait for Ding Yi to answer her. Aunt Shen said to Xiaoju, "Xiao Ju, the young lady is not feeling well. You can help her send the silver hairpin and bracelet to the East Courtyard later. You can't be tired of the young lady."
Xiao Ju answered yes with a smile.
