Chapter 16 Weak Mother, Strong Daughter

According to Qiuyue's opinion, even if there is no punishment for banning feet and copying scriptures, Sanniang first spoke evil to each other, and then hurt people - if Qiushuang hadn't blocked it, the paperweight would have hit Wu Niang and broken her head. This is simply vicious and vicious. Even if she was beaten by the board and rushed to Zhuangzi, it would not have been too much!

Now it's just a forbidden foot to meditated, and it's impossible to even get hungry. What kind of punishment is it?

Does Aunt Cui come to cry in the morning?

What's more, when she came forward, the prince's back foot arrived, and he didn't let the slaves and maidservants report. He stood under the edge of the window and listened to the words of Wu Niang and Aunt Cui completely!

It is said that Aunt Cui is docile and virtuous, honest, and she didn't expect to have such a intention - she attracted the prince and cried in front of the fifth mother, as if someone bullied her.

Qiu Yue was so angry that she stared at Aunt Cui a few times and almost didn't drop her eyes on the floor.

Duke Wei came suddenly, and the scenery was somewhat surprised. He glanced at Aunt Cui, who got up in panic and wiped her tears with a silk handkerchief. She couldn't help thinking of Qiu Yue, but she didn't panic. She came forward to be sure that she was blessed and smiled slightly: "Why did father come? Don't you have to go to court today?"

"Today, Xiu Mu just went to Yuanying Hall. I heard that you were wronged yesterday, so I came here to have a look." Duke Wei wore a dark cyan round-neck dress and put one hand behind him. At this time, he looked at Aunt Cui, and his two thick ink-like sword eyebrows frowned slightly: "Yiluo is too much this time. It's all because you usually indulge her too much. You are her biological mother, and you should have disciplined her temperament."

It seems that my father's visit this time doesn't look like Aunt Cui's design.

Aunt Cui did not expect that the Patriotic Association suddenly came here. She heard about Sanniang being banned last night and inquired about it. Only then did she know that Sanniang had made such a big mistake. She was guilty and worried. She didn't close her eyes all night. This morning, she went to the Duke's wife to greet her and plead for a while before she finally got a visit. With the daughter's permission, who once thought that the third mother did not want to see her, she only let a maid stand in front of the door and sent her out in a few words.

Aunt Cui knew that San Niang was wronged, but she was afraid that she would get more and more horny after being banned, so she came to beg Wu Niang...

I didn't expect to be met by Duke Wei.

Thinking that Duke Wei also loved Sanniang very much in the past, maybe you can beg him... Aunt Cui opened her mouth, but heard Duke Wei say again, "How do you cry in front of the younger generation? Iro was just banned for a few days in order to make her reflect on herself. It's not worth your appearance.

Although Duke Wei used to spoil Aunt Cui very much, he never indulged her. Seeing that she looked at a loss, although he also had some pity in his heart, he always felt that this behavior was not beautiful, so he scolded her.

Aunt Cui quickly said something wrong and did not even dare to raise her head on one side, which made Yijing feel a little embarrassed and said with a smile, "Father, don't annoy my aunt. She is also worried about the third sister."

Duke Wei then said, "If you are worried about your daughter, you should persuade her to change her mind. You go to Yantingyuan first, and I'll go there later."

Aunt Cui did not dare to stay any longer. She withdrew, held the maid's arm in a panic, and walked to Yantingyuan, where Sanniang lived.

All the little ladies in the Guogong Mansion have an independent yard at the age of ten. At present, except for Liu Niang and Ba Niang, the front of them have their own courtyards. San Niang's Yanting Garden is close to the aunt's Zhilanxuan. In front of the door is a jade egg path, winding through the locust shade.

Aunt Cui walked and stopped and hesitated all the way. When she stood outside the arch moon gate of Yantingyuan, she came out of her throat with a sigh. The palm of the maid Ji Xue tightened a little, and she looked more and more hesitant.

In the earlier time, she couldn't even enter this door. An eight- or nine-year-old maid crossed her waist and turned her out of her nostrils.

"I have to say that my aunt's temper is too soft, but she is a little maid who watches the door. She should slap her away. Look at Aunt Zhang. The prince usually doesn't pay much about her, but which servant dares to be arrogant in front of her? My aunt now has the favor of the prince, and she has to say soft words to a little maid? " Ji Xue was obviously full of resentment and couldn't wait to make a fierce scene.

"Why do you have to embarrass people? They are all ordered to act." Aunt Cui was restless, and Ying Yingqiu stared straight at the indifferent and closed Zhu Qimen, and there was a little helpless bitterness in her soft tone.

"After all, San Niang was born in October of pregnancy. Don't indulge her too much. Look at Ba Niang. How does Aunt Zhang treat her? San Niang and Ba Niang can be regarded as being born in the Fuwo, but she still doesn't respect her aunt..." Ji Xue was very unhappy for Aunt Cui. As she spoke, she was depressed and had a tendency to erupt. She simply stepped forward in a few steps and couldn't help raising her hand and patted Zhu Qi's door a few times.

Two little maids in the door sat in the porch and turned over the flower rope. When they heard the knock on the door, they didn't even raise their eyes - Sanniang just ordered. She closed the door and thought about it, and no one was missing.

Of course, this made Ji Xue more annoyed and patted the door harder.

The loud knock on the door shocked the second-class maid Caixia beside San Niang. She twisted her little waist and walked a few steps into the yard, stared at the apricot's eyes, raised her willow eyebrows, and opened her mouth and shouted: "Can't you be deaf? I didn't hear the door being patted. Why don't you go and have a look? It carefully shocked San Niang and pulled your lazy muscles!"

The two little maids opened the door in panic.

Seeing that it was Aunt Cui's master and servant again, he couldn't help but be full of resentment. One of them crossed his waist and scolded him like Caixia's tone, "Auntie, you don't understand human words? Or did you make San Niang unable to calm down?"

As soon as the words fell, her face was hit hard. Before the little maid came to her senses, she was pushed to the ground by Ji Xue: "But a third-class maid who watches the door dares to speak disrespectfully to her aunt? I think you are itchy. Believe it or not, I'll take it off for you?

The maids of Yantingyuan never wanted to be slapped in the face by the people around Aunt Cui. You know, Aunt Cui didn't even dare to straighten her waist in front of the third mother. The little maid who was beaten bit her silver teeth, turned over, jumped up like a wild cat, and hit Ji Xue without a head and cried and scolded, "This is Yanting. Yuan, my master is not an aunt, and he has to respect her like a bodhisattva? I don't pee and take photos. Are you qualified to come here?

Ji Xue's depression for many years finally got rid of the noise. She couldn't stand it. She immediately grabbed the little maid's collar and beat her several times fiercely. The waves of screams attracted several maids. Seeing this, she hugged up with a flock of wind, and her nail powder fists went to Ji Xue. The body greeted and cried louder.

Aunt Cui was shocked and stopped a few times, but there was no deterrent strength. She had to come forward to dissuade her, but she was beaten by several little maids and shook her tears and nose.

After a lot of time, a big maid came out to scold: "What is this? A few little hooves who don't understand are so noisy that Sanniang can't copy the scriptures." Pretating not to see Aunt Cui, he also rowed her into the scope of her hooves.

Ji Xue was already wearing her hair at this time. At least because of her height, there was no injury on her face, but her skirt had been torn open. Looking at Aunt Cui, she was also embarrassed. At this time, she was drooping her eyes and tidying up her skirt and aggrievedly. Ji Xue only felt a bad breath blocked her chest and didn't care about her appearance. , hurried forward to help Aunt Cui tidy up, turned her face and said to the maid, "My sister is so patient. Why can't you beat your aunt to death!"

Caixia, who had been watching for a long time, came forward and said with a smile, "If I see it right, it's Ji Xue who did it first. Look at Yan Ling's face. Now it's still printed with the palm print you threw. You have to look at the place. Half a master and a slave maidservant are not complete. The master dared to come to Yanting Garden to make trouble.

Ji Xue rolled her eyes with anger, but Aunt Cui said soft words repeatedly: "Girls, don't say a few words. San Niang is still being punished now. If it spreads, wouldn't it have to annoy the old lady and the Duke's wife?"

After hearing a sneer, Sanniang came out of the room. Suba stood outside the door with her chest straight and stared at Aunt Cui coldly: "Isn't this the purpose of aunt? Otherwise, why did you come to my yard early in the morning to cry and make trouble?

As soon as she saw her daughter, Aunt Cui's eyes were a little red. When she was about to come forward, her pace seemed to be frozen by San Niang's eyes. She hesitated and couldn't say a complete word. The maids circled around, and their faces were full of waiting for a good play. Ji Xue couldn't help saying to San Niang. He said, "When my aunt heard that you were punished, she didn't sleep soundly all night. This morning, she asked the Duke's wife for permission to visit San Niang. I'm afraid that you will be wronged..."

Before Ji Xue finished speaking, Sanniang had stepped on a strong pace and slapped her hand: "A bitch dares to talk too much in front of her master." Shake his sleeves and glanced at Aunt Cui: "If my aunt is so idle, she should also restrain her maid. I have parents who teach me to feel distressed, and I don't need to worry about my aunt."

Aunt Cui only felt sour in her heart, and tears couldn't help pouring out. The persuasion that had been thought of along the way were squeezed into her throat, and she subconsciously pulled Sanniang's hand... But she was staggered fiercely. Sanniang looked at her biological mother with disgust, her eyes seemed to contain a wind and frost sword, and the words she said naturally did not take A little temperature: "If your aunt has anything to say, just say it well. You can't move your hands and feet."

Aunt Cui's arm was stiff in mid-air, and it took a long time to take it back awkwardly. She choked and said, "I know you blame me... But you must not complain to Wu Niang. I have begged her..."

"What a matter!" San Niang mercilessly interrupted Aunt Cui's words and asked in a forced voice, "I made a mistake. It's just to admit punishment. Can you go around and beg?" Don't you think it's shameful enough? Are you afraid that people will forget that I was raised by a little woman? I know that I am a concubine and dare not complain to my daughter. Do you have to remind me? Or do you think you have pleaded in front of your fifth sister, and I should be grateful to you? She is the legitimate daughter, and I am a concubine. If I don't ask for her understanding, I won't have a place to stand in the Duke's mansion?!"

Aunt Cui subconsciously stepped back, and a white pear flower on her cheeks was even more sad, pale with no blood color. The slender eyelids of the mother and daughter, which were very similar, were filled with flushing, but a pair were stained with tears and hatred.

The maids of Yantingyuan are obviously very familiar with this scene, all of whom are sarcastic, so that they can stare at Aunt Cui.

In particular, Caixia was eager to show her "loyalty" in front of Sanniang. She was about to follow her master's words and fall into the well. Her eyes turned her eyes, but suddenly saw a tall figure standing in front of the door, which made her sweat coldly. She swallowed her throat and swallowed her belly, pulled Sanniang's sleeves and trembling. Sound reminder: "Sanniang, the prince is coming..."

——————————————————————————————

Duke Wei really didn't expect to have a good rest and greet Yuanying Hall, which led to so many accidents.

As the head of the family, he is also a close minister of the emperor. He holds the imperial guard in his hand and shoulders the safety of the imperial city and Kyoto. He is busy with business, and he can't take care too much about family affairs. Fortunately, his wife Huang is a virtuous person and a mother, the eldest princess. Although there is a domineering aunt Zhang, she is also a servant. He is majestic in front of him and can't make any big deal. Among the three sons, the eldest son is always calm and progressive. Although the second son is quiet, he is at least obedient to the governor. The youngest son is a naughty age. He has just been enlightened. With the discipline of Mr. Huang and Mr., he does not worry about the Duke of the country. He will not put it in the occasional quarrels of his daughters. In my heart.

Therefore, although he heard Huang mention the dispute between Sanniang and Wu Niang last night, he was as careless as ever.

When I went to Yuanying Hall this morning, my angry mother told me in detail why the two daughters quarreled. Between her words, there seemed to be a hidden responsibility for him - Aunt Cui was beautiful and weak, gentle, and the Duke of Wei was an iron hero, and there was a little love for the weak in her bones. Aunt Cui was gentle and weak. It can trigger the strong spirit in his bones. In addition, Aunt Cui is not a spoiled and coquettish person. He only feels that even if he favors the mother and daughter, it will not cause chaos in the inner house.

But what my mother said...

It seems that he is too fond of Sanniang, which makes Huang's direct mother have scruples. Many things are difficult to blame Sanniang, so that Sanniang is getting older but more and more arrogant.

Thinking of the grievances suffered by Wu Niang, Duke Wei was somewhat guilty.

In fact, among his daughters, his favorite is Sanniang and Wu Niang. In front of him, Sanniang has always been obedient, and there is Aunt Cui in it. He has also repeatedly told Huang not to treat Sanniang badly because of her because of her concubine's status, and Wu Niang is frank and careless, even if Wei Guoduan With the air of "Yan father", whenever his daughter is coquettish and naughty in front of his knees, it can also touch the softness in the depths of his heart, but compared with the two - Duke of Wei is more or less pitiful of Sanniang. After all, Wu Niang is the direct daughter and has the care and love of the eldest princess. No one in the house dares to give her grievances. San Niang is a concubine, and the biological mother is that This kind of temperament will be more or less uncareable. If his father is not favored, I'm afraid that some bullying and afraid of the weak will give San Niang a look.

Unexpectedly, her mother blamed her for this, saying that although Sanniang was a commoner, Huang had always treated her well. Although Aunt Cui was weak, according to Sanniang's temperament, how could she need her biological mother to take care of her? At the age of 13, she dares to speak ill of her sister and even fight... "Her paperweight went straight to Wu Niang's forehead! It can be seen how cruel it is. If you indulge without restraint, it will only harm her in the future!"

The sharp words made Duke Wei sweat coldly, reflected on his own past, and also knew the strength of it.

At that time, there was also a favorite concubine under the British public knee. Later, she married the son of the Minister of Household. Because she was used to being domineering and unruly in her boudoir, it became worse after marriage. Not to mention not knowing how to restrain her husband, she even bluntly contradicted her in front of her mother-in-law. The sister-in-law didn't like it, but after saying a few words, she was actually by this The shrew scratched her face with a hairpin on the spot!

Such evil deeds are naturally not tolerated by the husband's family. However, the British public was strong, and Concubine Hui pleaded for her sister, and the household secretary had to suffer this dumb loss.

Later, there was a case of Jiao Yue's conspiracy. Huifei was killed. The third prince and the fourth prince she gave birth to were shot. The British public soldiers were defeated and fled. They were also betrayed by the soldiers and beheaded and sacrificed to Jinyang. Liu's family destroyed the clan. The concubine lost the shelter of her mother's family and soon got an "urgent illness" and even the body was cremated.

When Duke Wei thought of this, he also secretly made up his mind that he could no longer be arrogant to Sanniang.

When he came out of Yuanying Hall and thought of the grievances suffered by Wu Niang, Duke Wei unconsciously went to Luqingyuan and didn't want to meet Aunt Cui's crying. This time, he did not feel pity, but added another irritation - Sanniang made a mistake, but her mother personally ordered a ban. Aunt Cui did not persuade Sanniang, but ran to Wu Niang. Isn't it the mother's punishment for being too heavy to plead in front of her? On the contrary, it is the demeanor of everyone's boudoir to say such words at such a young age.

The scale in Duke Wei's heart was seriously tilted. He scolded Aunt Cui in a few words and comforted Wu Niang with gentle words.

He knew that Wu Niang liked piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, especially rare books such as poetry and miscellaneous notes. He also planned to use a set of word posts collected by famous calligraphers collected in the early years as compensation. Unexpectedly, as soon as Wu Niang opened her mouth, she directly asked him for 50 taels of silver.

Duke Wei was confused, but looking at Wu Niang's shining expectant eyes, he really didn't ask many questions, so he agreed.

But I felt puzzled. When I came out of Luqingyuan, I still thought about the use of Wu Niang's money. I buried my head in San Niang's Yanting Garden. Unexpectedly, I heard San Niang's righteous questioning.

It turned out that the obedient daughter in front of her was really so publicized.

The maids then looked at the eyes of the third mother and saw the male master with a black face standing with his hands on his back in front of the door. They all felt weak under their knees. They were led by several big maids and knelt silently in the local area one after another. Even Aunt Cui was as anxious as ants on a hot pot. While crying, she stepped forward with small steps and knelt on the ground to pull Duke Wei's. The corner of the robe pleaded: "It's all because the maidservant can't speak. Don't be annoyed by the third mother."

When Sanniang first saw her father, her heart also shrank, but when she saw Aunt Cui's behavior, she suddenly raised a nameless fire in her heart, bit her lips, carefully restrained the hatred in her eyes, half raised her cheeks unyieldingly, walked to the unhappy Yan father, and straightened herself: "Father, please go to the teahouse to rest in peace. Sit down."

Looking at the rain-like spoiled concubine and her stubborn daughter, Duke Wei sighed and finally resisted the impulse to reprimand in front of the servants, brushed the corners of his robe, stared at Aunt Cui seriously, and took the lead in entering the room.
