Chapter 155

Gao Lushi sat down, waited for the servants to serve tea, and pretended to take a sip of tea.

"I said Juanniang, my aunt came to see you as soon as she came back, so you serve me this tea?" Gao Lu spat out the tea leaves in disgust.

Before Mrs. Jiang could speak, Gao Cui happened to come over from the back room and said, "Auntie, this is the only tea in my house. You are not used to drinking it. My niece will bring you a pot of white water."

"Forget it, it's been decades, and your eldest family is still living like this. My Wencai family will be promoted to a professor next year. Look at Wenlin. She has been a master book for more than ten years, and a woman can't even take care of an inner house. Well, it’s no wonder Wen Lin couldn’t get promoted.”

Both Jiang and Gao Cui were angry when they said this, Gao Cui wanted to open her mouth in hatred, but when she saw her niece walking out with a smile, she shut her mouth.

Gao Zhao went back to the room and washed his face in a hurry. When he came out, he heard what his uncle said. She smiled and said, "Grandmother, my cousin is going to be an official? What good things did you bring us? Auntie Wu next door went to Beijing. They all sent delicious food to the neighbors. I heard from Aunt Wu that there are happy events in Xuanqing Mansion, and you have to announce the good news. Aunt and grandma, are you announcing the good news? That’s great, it must be something from Xuanqing Mansion. Open your grandniece's eyes."

Gao Lushi looked at the smiling Gao Zhao, gloating over his misfortune, this face..., it must have been a nonsense again, it should be!

"Isn't it going to be next year? I'll definitely come back to announce the good news. Even you guys have to prepare gifts. The big house will be rich in the future. They're all from the Gao family. They have decent brothers. It's nice to say it."

Gao Zhao moved a bench and sat down next to his mother, with an envious expression on his face, he congratulated first, and then said: "Then let my uncle transfer my father to Xuanqing Mansion, otherwise I won't be so lucky, there is such a thing." Decent uncle, can you help the Gao family? Uncle, granduncle, if it can be done, I will definitely not lose you. I will definitely lend money and buy you good tea for you to drink. I will definitely not go to my uncle, aunt, and mother empty-handed in the future. Go, if you go, you won’t be able to speak harshly, let people see what is good to hear, the Gao family’s family style is good, it’s all taught by my uncle and grandma.”

Gao Lu choked, and said impatiently: "Girl, don't talk too much, I have something to do with your mother, so your mother can spoil you, a good little lady has developed such an appearance? Look at this face, who wants it?"

Gao Zhao didn't look at her at all, and stood up with a cry of surprise, which startled Gao Lu and even Jiang, and saw her rushing up and scratching at the trees in the yard, then sat down and said, "Yes, there is a tree in the yard." A bird, great-aunt, you go on."

Gao Lushi was so startled by her, forgot what to say, took a big sip of tea angrily.

Qiaoyun suddenly cried in the room, Jiang stood up and said: "Auntie, you sit down first, I have to go back to the room to see Qiaoyun."

Gao Cui also got up and said: "Oh, my dear, it must be a nightmare, don't be afraid, auntie is here, let's not go out, auntie will protect you."

Hearing Gao Cui's words, Gao Lu became even angrier, and wanted to enter the room, but looking at the smiling grandniece across the way, she raised her butt and sat down again.

Gao Zhao refilled the tea for his aunt and grandmother, smiled and said nothing, Gao Lu waited and waited until his nephew and daughter-in-law came out, stood up bitterly and said: No more drinking, got up and left.

Gao Zhao followed to send out the second door, waving at the door, Gao Lu stared back, turned around and walked away.

Back at his mother's house, Gao Zhao saw Qiaoyun sitting in his aunt's arms, not crying at all, she smiled.

Jiang Shi smiled helplessly: "It must be Zhao'er who taught me, I wonder why Qiao Yun'er is crying today."

Gao Zhao walked over to pick up his younger sister, kissed her, and said triumphantly, "I told my younger sister, if you cry when you see your uncle and grandma coming, mother will come to coax you, uncle and grandma can't bully mother, and elder sister, In the future, when your uncle and grandma come, don't come out, I'm here."

"I get angry when I hear her talking, and my mind becomes confused when I get angry. Fortunately, Zhao'er can deal with her with a smile."

"So, leave it to me in the future. I'm the eldest, and I'm going to protect the family. Isn't it just talking about it? I won't mess around. I definitely respect the old and love the young."

"What's the matter?" Gao Wenlin opened the curtain and came in, and heard his daughter say that he was protecting the house, not knowing what happened.

"My aunt just came, and the one who spoke was not pleasant, so Zhao'er told me to run away." Seeing his brother come back, Gao Cui gave way and sat on the chair.

"Zhao'er, you are an elder after all, so you can't mess around." Gao Wenlin took a sip of the tea poured by his wife and said.

"Father, you still don't believe me? I'm sure everything I say is nice, but my uncle and grandma don't like it, so I can't help it." Gao Zhao said solemnly.

Jiang Shi asked: "My aunt said she wanted to talk to me about something, but Zhao'er interrupted me later, and I guess I forgot to mention it. Master, when did the second room come back? What did you want to tell me?"

"It's not an old saying, my cousin went to the yamen to find me today, and said that he wanted to let the big house have a meal at the ancestral house on the ninth day of the ninth day, and then go to the ancestral grave together, but I didn't agree."

"Usually, my uncle came to our father and said, why did my cousin come to you this year? I didn't see my uncle coming to our house this year, only my aunt came here by herself."

Seeing that his daughter was here, Gao Wenlin couldn't explain the dirty things about the second room, so his uncle didn't dare to come to see his father.

"Maybe uncle is unwell. Anyway, let's don't talk about this matter with the first room and second room in the future. I flatly refused my cousin and said that this matter should not be mentioned again. The decision of the elders is that I, as a junior, can only obey."

In front of his daughter, Gao Wenlin really didn't want to speak bad words. It's not that Gao Wenlin had to miss the ancestral house. As the eldest son, he didn't live in the ancestral house. I understand the situation inside, but you juniors, wait for outsiders to say that you don’t live in the ancestral house, what do you do to make them feel ashamed of their elders?We must let them know Dafang's firmness!

But this time he was angry. Usually, it was his uncle who came to talk to his father about this matter. He was a junior and he couldn't intervene. I have read the books about juren, so now I am making this request, do you feel ashamed?

But I can't tell my daughter these things, alas, I have to protect my cousin's face.

"How embarrassing? Knowing what's going on, you still have the face to look for your father? If you're wrong, you're wrong, and you still want our eldest room to make up for his second room? No wonder the uncle and grandma came here by themselves. I guess the aunt has no face to open this Say it, you can’t open your mouth if you want to save face! Uncle is a scholar, don’t you understand etiquette, righteousness and shame? My great-aunt is here today to talk about this matter. If she speaks, I will say that I will return the ancestral house and then we will worship the ancestors together. Don't treat Dafang like a persimmon."

After Gao Zhao finished speaking angrily, he looked at his father's face and continued, "I said something wrong? Don't worry about face when I say it. Dad has done a good job, so I can't agree to it. Uncle Tang is an adult in Xuanqing Mansion." , considering the need to save face, should my eldest wife step up for your second wife?"

Gao Cui was delighted to hear it, she slapped her thigh and said, "That's the truth, Zhao'er is right, that's what I should say, next time my aunt comes to talk about it, I'll just say that, just thinking about it makes me angry, What a big house, just let the second room be occupied, when your great-grandfather clearly said that the two families have half of the family, and the big house will occupy the main courtyard."

Gao Wenlin is dizzy, am I just letting the wife of my family get in the way?She just said that she would protect her cousin's face in front of her daughter, but who knew that her daughter could see clearly, it was good, but she shouldn't speak out.
