Chapter 255

In the end, it was Sister Wen who signaled Mu Zhaozhao to lower her figure. After apologizing and making amends, Qing Xiangying did not bring up the topic of 'unfilial piety' again, and led them away with a calm face.

Sister Wen also looked at Shi Zifei, not knowing what to say.

On the contrary, Mu Zhaozhao calmed down and knew that he had said something wrong earlier. Seeing Nanny Wen's cold eyes, he quickly signaled the maids to go out.

She also wanted face, so she naturally didn't want them to see her being trained.

As soon as they left, he graciously poured a cup of tea for Mammy Wen, and thought of a way to shirk responsibility: "Mommy, I know you hate iron but steel."

Sister Wen: No, no, no, don't put money on your face, I just want to say that you are muddy and can't support the wall.

It's just that she is embarrassed to say that because she is now her own food and clothing.

I can't remember how many times I said in her ear, don't contradict your wife face to face, a word of filial piety can make her fall into a trap.

But she was able to nod with a serious face at that time, but now she forgot about it when she faced Mrs. Shang.

Fortunately, Mu Zhaozhao didn't know what she was thinking, and he touched his belly with annoyed expression: "But it may be because I'm pregnant, and my heart is like a fire, and I knew in my heart that I couldn't say that at the time. Yes, but I couldn't help it..."

Speaking of which, I feel a little pitiful, my husband likes my children, but Mother Wen pays more attention to my stomach.

When Mother Wen heard this, she was dubious.

The main reason is that she has never been married, but she has heard many strange reactions from pregnant women.

Even though Mu Zhaozhao didn't seem to be pregnant before, maybe he has a reaction now?

Mu Zhaozhao looked sincere, wishing he could write the word 'innocent' on his face: "Nurse, I was a little sloppy before, but I wasn't so angry, right?"

"Don't say it's you, I can't believe it myself, I would be so stupid before, and I would speak out of my mouth, that really wasn't my intention."

"But as soon as I saw them, I felt a fire in my heart. If I didn't say it, I felt that I would die of depression..."

She herself now understands why she spoke so irritatingly before.

Must be jealous.

Anyway, as soon as she saw Qing Zhiqing, she almost 'bullied' her cousin in her mind, which made her feel terribly sad.

When I saw her, I wanted to clean her up.

But she didn't dare to admit it in front of Mother Wen.

Mother Wen thought it was the same, so she eased her expression, and said earnestly again: "Concubine Shizi, you must not be so impulsive in the future. Fortunately, they are wrong and there are no outsiders, otherwise you don't care about your own reputation." , you have to think more about the young master or young lady in your stomach."

Mu Zhaozhao agreed with a solemn face.

But in my heart, I just thought hehe: You might as well just say that I don't have a good reputation, but my child should have a good reputation.

The eccentricity has gone to the armpit, which is too bullying.

But Mu Zhaozhao still had the expression of the rest of his life: "Thanks to the mother, I didn't suffer, otherwise I don't know what to do?"

Thinking of her cousin not coming back at night, she became a little worried again: "She won't settle accounts after autumn, right?"

At this time, I feel a little regretful that Xuan Ping is waiting for a casual job, often spending three days fishing and two days fishing, with no serious business.

But they have a good relationship as husband and wife, what if after hearing Qing Xiangying's complaint, Xuan Pinghou came to make trouble for him?
When Mother Wen heard her words, she knew what she was worried about. After hesitating for a while, she said, "Probably not. I think Madam is more thoughtful herself. Suspicion creates a dark ghost. Madam will not be in front of Lord Hou." Mention her natal niece."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at her again, thinking: It doesn't matter if I guessed wrong, anyway, Shizi Concubine can pretend to be innocent, she can pretend to be wronged, and she can cry whenever she can.

Perhaps this is the benefit of not having the burden of a famous lady?
To deal with Lord Hou, one cry, two make troubles and three hang himself, as long as he is a rascal.

Mu Zhaozhao didn't know that Nanny Wen thought of herself as a shrew, but when he heard the gossip, his eyes lit up instantly: "I just said it casually, will she take it seriously?"

Sister Wen has almost grasped her character: "Madam seems to be very protective of her natal family, but she likes Lord Hou more, and is afraid of losing his favor."

"Impossible?" Mu Zhaozhao was a little skeptical: "If she really liked Lord Hou so much, why would she have given all the money from the father-in-law to her natal family before?"

"That's because the madam wants you to make up for it, and she also feels that now that you are the son and concubine, she is wronged for her son, so she would rather take advantage of her mother's family."

Seeing that she was listening seriously, Sister Wen continued: "But when Master Hou got annoyed later, didn't Madam just use her own dowry money to make up for it?"

"Actually, even if she doesn't make up the money, Lord Hou will have nothing to do with her."

"After all, Lord Hou has a good face, and he will never mention that his wife paid for her mother's family with money from her father's money."

After she finished speaking, she sighed: "To put it bluntly, it's Madam who can't leave Lord Hou even more. She is worried that Lord Hou will go to Tongfang, so she compromises."

Although the prince and concubine are in love now, and they are as good as one person, she is still a little worried.

I stayed in the palace cautiously for most of my life, seeing too many amorous women begging but not being favored by the emperor alone, and finally had evil thoughts in my heart, but it ended up being lost.

It's not as good as the concubine who seems to be affectionate but is actually ruthless can live to the end.

Regardless of whether it was the previous Emperor Qing'an or the current Emperor Qinghe, although there were not many concubines in the harem, they were not all the concubines who served them before.

But after the death of the concubine, a newcomer was selected to enter the palace, just to maintain that number.

Of course, there are indeed not many concubines in the harem of the emperor. Nowadays, in the backyards of many important officials in the court, there are very few adults who do not take concubines and take over the house.

She was worried that now that the concubine Shi Zi was favored by the son alone, if the concubine got a newcomer in the future, would the concubine Shi Zi be unable to bear it?
Therefore, even if Shi Zifei sometimes speaks nonsense with her eyes open, or is a little slippery or careless, she can't bear to be too harsh.

When you think it makes her happy, let her be more happy.

So even though we are talking about Madam now, why not talk about it for Shi Zifei to hear?

Mu Zhaozhao didn't understand her painstaking efforts, and nodded approvingly: "No, if I was greedy for money, I would never spit it out. Not only would I lose money, but I would also lose face."

"Anyway, my husband doesn't have his own son to rely on. She already has a son. Why do you want Master Hou to like him?"

After finishing speaking, she leaned over to Nanny Wen, and smiled wickedly: "It's better to find more beauties for Master Hou, and kill him earlier, maybe Madam can go to Nanfeng Pavilion to cheer more, hey-hey…"

Seeing her bad expression seeking her approval, Nanny Wen almost couldn't control her hand that wanted to hit someone again, and said angrily: "Concubine Shizi, be careful with your words and deeds! Don't force me to give you all those words in your notebook." Burn it."

"Mrs. Wen, you've also read the book 'Marry Again', right? Hahaha, I think the founding empress is so amazing that she can write such a wonderful book. You said, the empress was Didn't you wait for the concubine? She's fine too..."

Sister Wen: So why should I worry about her?Seeing her like this, even if the son wants to take a concubine and take over the house, he might not be heartbroken, but thinking about remarrying?Or give birth to a son quickly so that he can kill the son?
...

During the day, Zixiao asked people to watch the movement of the second room next door, and he did not forget to ask someone to watch the movement in the old lady's yard.

Speaking of it, it's also thanks to Zisu's loose hands, willingness to give away money, and being particularly good at dealing with people, or the previous son Liwei, who quickly bought a sweeping woman in the old lady's yard, and another who was working in the old lady's yard The maid serving in the tea room.

Although they are not the housekeepers and maidservants favored in front of the old lady, they can still spy on the movement in the old lady's room.

Besides, even if there is a secret way, if the second old lady really came to see the old lady, then the old lady would definitely send out all the maids and women around her, and let them notice.

However, there was still no movement all day today.

After dark, it was Zi Xiao and Yun Xiao who watched in person.

Therefore, after dark, Yun Xiao came to the rockery in the old lady's yard, met Zi Xiao, and asked in a low voice: "Is there still no movement?"

"Well," Zixiao rubbed his face stiffened by the north wind, and said in a low voice, "We have been guarding for two nights, if there is no movement at the end of the night tonight, I'm afraid we won't come again at night ?”

Yun Xiao responded in a low voice: "You go back and rest first? I'll just watch over tonight."

"That's okay, I'll go first." Zi Xiao didn't refuse, thinking that the second old man was too good at torturing people. If he didn't show up, they would continue to wait until there was a result.

I just don't know if the news about the son's arrival is reliable, and I just hope that it's not something the second old man just said casually, or else their work will be in vain.

Mu Zhaozhao was also thinking about what happened to the old lady, and before going to bed, he asked Zisu again: "Zixiao and the others haven't brought a word yet?"

"Yes." Even though Zisu was curious about why Zixiao and the others were staring at the old lady, she didn't dare to ask, but said with a smile: "Concubine Shizi, tomorrow will be fourteen, and the next one will be the fifteenth day of the first lunar month." Well, if the son goes out of the palace tomorrow afternoon, I think the son will just be able to spend the Lantern Festival with you."

Mu Zhaozhao lay on the warm bed, touched his stomach which still felt nothing, and sighed: "Now that I'm pregnant, I can't go out to watch the lanterns."

However, thinking about the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month last year, when she met the Assassin in the Zhuangyuan Building, she almost went to Huangquan to see Lord Yan. She felt that even if she was not pregnant, she would not want to go to the Zhuangyuan Building to watch the lanterns again. up.

Who knows what uncontrollable situations will arise this year?

Still stay safe at home.
