Chapter 108
? Rong’antang is filled with a strong smell of medicine every day.
Since the old lady fainted again last time, her condition has become more serious since she woke up. The left half of the body was completely unable to move, and his left face was tilted and not controlled by the facial muscles. He could speak before, but was vague. It’s pretty good now, it’s very difficult to say a few words.
Yan Hong was raised in Rong’an Hall, but because the old lady was seriously ill, he was moved to the front yard. Generally, boys would leave the back house when they were about ten years old. Yan Hong was late, and the old lady was worried about him.
Yan Mo also moved to the front yard. He was on November this year and he couldn’t always let him live in Ningxiang Pavilion with Yan Yan.
Yan Yan personally picked a yard, far away from Yan Hong’s residence. After some repairs and cleaning up, he sent someone to move all of Yan Mo’s applications. Yan’er and Ying’er both followed, and Dong’s mother, and most of the other servants chose the small servant. The yard where Yan Mo lived was close to the place where Shen Yiyao’s team of guards was valued, so there was no need to worry about safety.
The weather is getting colder, and it seems that it is only one night, and the sky and the earth are covered with a layer of white.
The outside dripping into ice, in the warm pavilion of Jinseyuan, the earth dragon burned warmly, and a three-legged gilt luan bird incense burner was placed in the corner of the house.
Shen Yiyao and Xue were wearing thin jackets and sitting on the kang, each holding a cup of tea in his hand, and they were talking.
Most of the talks are about the marriage of Yan Ru Yan Ling.
There are not many people who come to ask for relatives these days. Shen Yiyao walks away every day. Because Yan Yan has already set up a marriage, she is in the stage of preparing for marriage and is not suitable for walking outside, so she always brings Yan Ru and Yan Ling, who loves the two together. A lot.
Xue was anxious when her daughter was not interested. Now someone asks, Xue’s is so frustrated, Kuyin doesn’t know how to choose.
It is probably impossible to say that there can be any good relationship with Yan Ru. Because the noble ladies of the high gate mansion choose their daughter-in-law not only for character, family background is also the most important one. Yan Ru was the prostitute of the Hou Mansion’s concubine, and her father was just a seventh-rank errand. This alone caused many ladies who fancy Yan Ru and Yan Ling to retreat.
Of course, it is indispensable to have a fancy for his character and treatment, or to see that Shen Yiyao is quite close to the two and there is a cousin of a prince and concubine, but most of these people are not good enough in the world. That is the case, it was also something Xue had never imagined before. Shen Yiyao told the person who had missed her words to listen to her, and Xue did not sleep well for several days.
After several discussions with Yan Zhi, the Xue family chose a few families and used them to advise Shen Yiyao.
Shen Yiyao, wearing a bright red begonia jacket, leaned against the pillow, and said slowly to Xue: “The sister-in-law’s choice of these, Mrs. Liang is upright and honest, and the family style is very good. Mrs. Liang is generous and has a daughter in the family, but He has always been a timid and introverted temperament, and he must be easy to get along with in the future. This Young Master Liang is the eldest son of the Liang family. If married, the eldest girl will be a clan wife in the future. And this Qing Anbo’s family has a good family background. After Amber was also an old brand nobleman, it was only that Daxi’s surname was mostly the fifth generation. Qinganbo is now the last generation. The second son of Qinganbo’s family is said to be very literary. If it is to be Qingan in the future It’s not that I can’t find a birth by myself…”
Xue listened attentively. She didn’t often walk around, and didn’t know the situation of many houses in Beijing. Shen Yiyao said that she wanted to know most. We must know that the choice of marriage can not only look at the appearance, but also the inside. Who can wonder if it is sweet and bitter.
After Shen Yiyao’s advice, the Xue family became more hesitant and undecided, and hurriedly said goodbye to go back to discuss with the uncle.
At the same time, in the Ningxiang Pavilion.
On the big kang in the west, Yan Yan Yan Ru and Yan Ling also sat in the same place and talked.
These days Xue’s anxiety has also infected Yan Ru, but as a daughter’s family, it is difficult for her to ask questions, so she can only secretly talk to her two good sisters in private.
“Sister, don’t worry about it. I believe my mother will pick you a wishful man.” Yan Ling quipped.
“Bah, baah, what a wishful man, you little villain, you can’t say this kind of thing.” Yan Ru’s cheeks are flushed, and his expression is embarrassed and ashamed, and he scratches Yanling’s itch like a cover.
Yan Ling repeatedly begged for mercy, and smiled and said, “There is no one else here, and it’s not too much to talk about. You see, after the third sister has decided to kiss, the four princes will not pull the third sister to send things to the third sister every day, so she can tell her mother clearly I will also find you such a considerate brother-in-law.”
Yan Ru was even more embarrassed. Yan Yan smiled on the side and said, “Okay, you’re even arranging me.”
After frolicking for a while, Yan Ru looked upset and sighed softly.
Yan Yan picked up the tea on the Kang table and took a sip: “Sister, you don’t have to worry about it. Auntie will check it out for you, and it will go smoothly.”
“I hope so, I’m just thinking, if it’s really settled, just marry like this?” Yan Ru held up the tea cup, but did not stop talking, the steam was stunned, and she winked in a daze. She only sighed slightly: “But after all, we don’t know each other!”
“The important thing about marriage has always been the words of the matchmaker. The acquaintance or acquaintance that came from is always just living, and I can definitely live well anywhere.” They are all people who are about to be married, and Yan Ling naturally wants to have had this. The problem is that she has more ideas than Yan Ru.
Since ancient times, this has been the case for both men and women. The man is better, and the world has always been more tolerant to men. On the contrary, marrying a daughter’s family is no less than a gamble. Good is good, bad? At Yan Ru’s age, he can’t understand what is bad. Otherwise, Xue’s person would not hesitate to be so straightforward.
At one time, Shen Yiyao was not in this same mood, especially with her own example before, she was even more cautious and prudent. Fortunately, Emperor Xi gave the marriage, and the other party was a younger person whom he had known for a long time, and he knew all about his character, otherwise Shen Yiyao would not give up more than the Xue family.
“Okay, okay, don’t sigh. Just like the fourth sister said, it’s always just living, as long as you can stand up, you can live anywhere. So sister, you have to change your temperament, don’t be too soft. Otherwise, I will be bullied when I go to my in-laws’ house.”
But Yan Ling, Yan Yan is not worried about it. Although Yan Ling is not obvious on the surface of getting along these days, in fact, she is more mature and sophisticated than Yan Ru in dealing with people. On weekdays, when visiting Beppu as a guest, sometimes where Yan Ru can’t do, Yan Ling will hide with her without a trace.
After all, it’s a different birth and a different experience. Yan Ling had to plan for herself and survive in the cracks since she was a child, while Yan Ru grew up under the wings of the Xue family. Although she is smart, she is still slightly simple in nature. Some.
Press not to mention.
Although Xue family was busy with her daughter’s marriage affairs, the old lady has not relaxed, and there is also the Chen family.
Everyone knows what Chen’s idea is.
Seeing that the Xue family and the Chen family were in conflict, Shen Yiyao also asked why.
Xue’s just laughed and didn’t say anything, so Shen Yiyao continued to look down. Shen Yiyao’s Chu Chuuo Yueyue also understood the meaning in her heart.
The old lady is very pitiful now. She is paralyzed and can’t get up all the time, and she has difficulty even speaking.
In the past, the housekeeper of the Chen family was restrained by her, and she had to ask her about major and minor matters. Now that the old lady has difficulty in words and deeds, she has left Rong’antang and other matters to Mother Zhao. Of course, this matter must not be stated in the open. It is possible that the madam who is so dignified is still under the control of a woman. Generally speaking, people who know in their hearts will understand that this mother Zhao stood up as the old lady. It’s a pity that Chen doesn’t know whether she is really stupid or deliberately pretending to be stupid, so that she seems to think that Mother Zhao is nothing.
On weekdays, I just do my own way, although I also came to report to the old lady as before, but I was quite suspicious of my behavior and demeanor.
The old lady is not less angry, but her body does not allow her to be angry at this moment. For the sake of her own life, she can only suppress it as much as possible. Mother Zhao was also aggrieved in her heart, but the old lady couldn’t bear it physically. What Chen did on weekdays, she couldn’t tell her half of the lawsuit, and she had to cover it up.
Seeing that no one can restrain her, Chen’s arrogance is even worse for the Xue’s to avoid her edge for a while.
I don’t know how she discussed with Yan Qu, and deliberately took a day to gather several masters of the big house, two rooms and three rooms together, preparing to discuss the specific regulations of the housekeeper in the future for the old lady who is sick and unable to afford it.
To put it bluntly, the Chen family is unwilling to just take care of the family, and even want to contaminate the income that the old lady holds in her hands.
It stands to reason that Shen Yiyao is the most qualified, but it is a pity that she has always shown no interest in it. In order to prevent her from changing her mind temporarily, the Chen family just sat down and said: “I also saw that the second wife Chengri was busy. After all, A Yan married a royal family. This preparation for marriage is definitely not easy, presumably there is no free time. I came to take care of this, thinking that everyone would sit together and sort out the articles of association. After all, this will be closed in recent years.”
Chen said with a smile on his face. Not to mention that Shen Yiyao was originally lacking in interest, even if it had that meaning, she was blocked by a single sentence, so this Chen family is not a simple character, it’s just that it was hidden in the past.
“Then three brothers and sisters will bother. I really don’t have time.”
Even Shen Yiyao made such a statement, not to mention the Xue family.
Chen’s face couldn’t be covered with a smile, and he glanced at Xue triumphantly. Xue just smiled, turned sideways and talked to Shen Yiyao in a low voice.
Not long after, Yan Zhi and Yan Qu arrived, followed by Yan Ting.
Seeing that Yan Ting was in a hurry, the Chen family didn’t delay and gave a brief overview of the matter. The meaning was that the old lady should not be tired, and the mother should take a rest after working hard all her life.
This is indeed the case, at the age of the old lady, if she hadn’t taken over the power so much, it would have been handed over long ago. No matter in name or in sense, Chen’s suggestion makes sense.
Now that this argument can be passed, who will take care of it next.
The Chen recommended herself as her part, and said that the old lady also meant the same. Shen Yiyao did not appear to be disagreeing, and Xue did not say anything, so the matter was settled.
After that, the three men went to each other busy. Xue family and Shen Yiyao wanted to go back to the yard separately, but Chen said: “Two sisters-in-law, wait a minute. We have decided on such a big thing. Naturally, the three of us should be daughters-in-law. Go and report it to your mother in person, lest she thinks it’s me alone.”
This Chen is really not how to describe her, even if she did it, she wants people to cover it up. I really complied with the slang term, and I wanted to be a slang, and I wanted to set up an archway.
Shen Yiyao was noncommittal. Xue’s face sneered. Chen only regarded her as jealous. Seeing that the two had not raised any objections, he took the lead and went to Rong’antang.
At this moment, the old lady who was lying in Rong’an Hall, unable to move, would know how the old third wife, who had always been honest and reticent, would come. In ancient times, there was a saying, “Gap of wine releases military power.” Now the old lady has not eaten a glass of wine, and she didn’t know it, so she was seized of power, even under the guise of her. These days, Chen did run Rong’antang very diligently, so her statement did not raise suspicion.
Except for Xue family and Shen Yiyao, who knew the clues in advance.
Chen’s spring breeze was proud, and as soon as he entered the door, he leaned forward to the old lady’s bed and talked about the matter roughly.
When she got here, she changed another way. The meaning was almost the same as before, except that she slightly tampered with the meaning and turned into a few masters who are really worried about the body of the old lady, and they can’t bear to be daughters-in-laws. Let the mother be so tired, she discussed that one person should take over the burden.
As for this person who bears the burden, it is her.
Chen’s appearance is really amazing.
For the same thing, she changed a few meanings from her mouth. Except for the parties involved in the whole process, others could not find any reason after hearing them. Even if the old lady asked Yan Ting to ask carefully, no one would be able to. If the Chen family is telling a lie or something, the old lady will still have a name that is still like this and still holding on to power.
The old lady said a few vaguely in her mouth, her face flushed with anxiety, and she couldn’t say the whole thing, she only said the word ‘Xue’.
Mother Zhao has been serving the old lady for a long time, so she can understand what she means and hurriedly said, “Madame, the old lady is calling you.”
Xue’s stepped forward and asked diligently: “Mother, what do you want to say?”
The old lady’s mouth was ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Mother Zhao looked at Xue with eager eyes, and it is estimated that only she can understand what the old lady is excited about.
Xue’s complexion was a little embarrassed, “This—”
The Chen hurriedly interrupted: “Mother, she clearly didn’t say anything, let alone sister-in-law did not understand, second sister-in-law and I didn’t understand. Why did you mother Zhao know what your mother meant? Could it be that you are your mother and her old man’s belly? The roundworm in the house?”
Chen’s words are not unreasonable. The old lady can’t utter a complete syllable for a long time, and others can’t understand it. How can mother Zhao understand it? Is it possible that she and the old lady are in good spirits?
You can also say the same, but the old lady didn’t speak, and it’s other people’s business what others think. You can recognize your mother Zhao’s ‘heart and soul’, and of course, you can also be labeled as arrogant.
Chen clearly meant this!
She blushed and her expression was quite annoyed, “Mother Zhao, you have served the old lady for so many years, and everyone in the house respects you, including us who are the masters, never say you are not. But what you did today But it’s a bit too late. Is it your old lady or the old lady? Is it possible that we, a big son, still recognize you as a mother-in-law?”
The words were a bit heavy, and Mother Zhao fell to her knees with a fright, not daring.
Chen proposed to take out the account book of the family’s property income with her, Zhao’s mother looked ashamed and desperate.
The old lady thumped **** the couch, but to no avail. Now she can move her right hand and arm, but she can’t move anywhere else. She was so anxious and sweating that she was ignored by others. Shen Yiyao couldn’t see this pitifulness, so she hung her head hurriedly, and Xue clan intentionally or unintentionally placed his eyes on Chen clan and others.
No one pays attention to her, and it is true. What is the use of an old man who is lying in bed and can’t even speak? The things that the old lady held in her hand are now in the care of Mother Zhao, so the Chen family will focus all of her attention on Mother Zhao, and is about to overturn the slave who is pressing on the head of the master.
“…Give, give…shen…”
The old lady didn’t know how much effort she had exerted before she said this sentence. After she finished speaking, she slumped there, panting vigorously.
As if she was amnesty, Zhao’s mother hurriedly got up from the ground and rushed to the bed.
“The old lady said, the old lady said to the second lady.”
This sentence seemed to give Mother Zhao infinite strength, so that her tone gradually stabilized and her expression turned firm. At this time, the mother in charge of the old lady who had been in charge of the backyard of the Weiyuan Hou Mansion for dozens of years showed that she should be shrewd and steady.
“The third lady, it’s not the old slave who questioned it. After all, the second lady is Mrs. Weiyuanhou, who should be the housekeeper. How can you pass the second lady and receive the whole middle feed? What is the second lady? Speak out. But it will make people laugh!”
At this time, the old lady didn’t forget to cheat Shen Yiyao, but it was a pity that the one being guarded couldn’t understand the meaning, but became a bit resentful.
The expression on Chen’s face is weird, it seems that he is obviously resentful, but he wants to pretend to be calm and tolerant, or he doesn’t care about his grace and generosity. It was a pity that it was not successful, but because of these mixed emotions, it was a bit terrifyingly weird.
“Second Sister-in-law, do you think so too? You said before that you didn’t have time to take care of this, so I thought about doing it with you!” Chen said aggrieved.
Shen Yiyao was frightened by Chen’s expression, and repeatedly said: “I still have to worry about marrying A Yanbei, where is this free. What I said is not a fake, don’t get me wrong with the three younger siblings!”
“Second Madam, the old lady’s meaning is left to you!” Mother Zhao said hurriedly.
The old lady lying on the couch also said a few words.
Shen Yiyao smiled apologetically, “Daughter-in-law is indeed not free. Since the third sibling wants to be the family, let her be her.”
Xue immediately said: “Mother, her old man can definitely understand. You see that my second siblings and I are busy worrying about our children’s marriage every day. In this whole house, the third siblings have this free time and the ability to be a good family .”
The old lady has no energy to speak now, she can only flush, panting, staring at two people, or at everyone.
Chen finally settled down and asked Mother Zhao to take out the account book.
Mother Zhao was already powerless, so she had to take out a black painted box and hand it to the Chen family.
Everyone in the room was a little nervous, even though the Chen family hugged something and left, as if they were afraid that someone would **** it away.
The Chen’s words and deeds are always so unexpected!
Before the evening, the Chen clan broke out.
She came to Rong’an Hall with great fanfare, and let people start a fight without saying anything.
According to her, Mother Zhao dared to insult her and actually gave her an empty box. It’s not an empty box, but there are only two thin account books in it. Even if the Chen’s head is not bright enough, he is not a fool. How could the dignified and powerful family business only have so little.
Mother Zhao was wronged, of course. She had communicated with the old lady a while ago, but now this matter can no longer be covered up, and she simply let it be in vain.
She didn’t hide it either, saying that there was really only so much left in the house. This big family has been accustomed to spending lavishly in recent years, and only relying on that little ancestral industry to sit and eat the mountains and sky, has long been trying to support. In order to fill the hole in the mansion, the old lady’s accumulation and dowry in recent years were all exhausted, and she had no choice but to change the property of the seller. It is also said that the situation in the mansion in recent years should be known to everyone, and there has been a clue.
Chen’s whole person is dumbfounded, and can’t imagine how things have become like this!
After the incident came out, it was beyond everyone’s expectations.
Including the Xue family, all her recent actions are stimulating the Chen family. She just wants her to get the property from the old lady in the mansion. She wants to see what the real situation of the Weiyuanhou mansion is now, but she didn’t expect it to be this one. Look like.
Back then, the Weiyuan Hou Mansion was a big property, but there were only two small villagers left, and the annual income was only three or four thousand taels. What about the others? You must know that the public school has more than a second-bedroom family business, as well as large- and third-bedroom properties.
Now that the matter got serious, the Chen family questioned it in front of the old lady.
Today, Chen experienced the excitement from heaven to earth several times. Under great joy and sadness, her expression was almost mad. Standing in front of the old lady’s couch, she was frantically questioning. Zhao’s mother cried so much tears to stop her.
The old lady couldn’t talk, so she could only lie there and listen to the always favored daughter-in-law and gouging her heart out. Xue was also a little unacceptable, and kept mumbling about what to do with his children’s marriage. Shen Yiyao waited standing aside and didn’t know what to say.
Until San Ye rushed back when he heard the news, he dragged Chen’s back.
There was a night in the third room, and the big room was extremely silent, but there was nothing unusual in the second room. You should still eat and sleep. After all, even when Shen Yiyao left Weiyuan Houfu with two children, I never said that I was worried about money.
This is the woman’s confidence, the more the dowry, the more the confidence. Don’t worry about the skyrocketing outside, I will live my own life with ease!
Yan Ting didn’t come back at night, and someone from the mansion had sent someone out to find him, but unfortunately no one was found. I don’t know what kind of face he knew about these things that happened in the mansion after he came back.
