The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 7 is not what I thought

Yong Fan Yuan is one of the top five good courtyards in Sheng Guogong's mansion. Although the location is a bit far from the main courtyard, it is not out of the center circle.

There are three entrances to the garden, and each entrance has side courtyards on both sides. After entering the third courtyard, there is a small garden. Although the area is not large, it is more exquisite.

The side courtyard that Mrs. Zheng is going to is a secondary courtyard. It was originally intended for a few children to practice martial arts. It just so happens that the eldest son, Sheng Xin, has lived in Zheng's family for many years. The two daughters are still young, so they put it on hold for the time being. .

Although it will not be used for a while, the courtyard room is still cleaned every day, and the furniture decoration is maintained on time. Even if it is an instant reception, there is no need to worry about impoliteness.

Sheng Yuan was carried into the main hall by Nanny Yang, and the first thing he saw was the partition between the main hall and the living room.

Sure enough, the window screen on the partition door is Dachu tribute silk and green bamboo silk.

Green bamboo gauze is the common yarn that the nobles of Chu put on the window edges. This kind of yarn is woven by the weaver's special technique, and the front and back sides have their own characteristics.

The front is light and flowing, gorgeous and cool, even if you lean forward, it is difficult to see the scene behind the tulle.

The opposite is the opposite, even if you stand three feet away from the tulle, you can still see everything behind the tulle clearly.

In addition, the green bamboo gauze has excellent air permeability, light shading, and confidentiality, so that it has become the standard equipment in the homes of the nobles of Chu.

The reason why Sheng Yuan knew about this was because she heard about it when the little maids in her yard were changing yarns and chatting.

In fact, the tribute gauze in her room is of a higher grade, called Ziyun gauze; this gauze is as its name suggests, and when viewed from a distance, it actually feels like a dense cloud of smoke.

On top of Ziyun silk, there are more advanced silver frost silk and golden hazel silk, but they are all reserved for the royal family, and Sheng Yuan has only heard about them, but has never seen them.

"Go and bring Mrs. Wu over."

Mrs. Zheng sat down in the main hall, waited for the servant girl to bring tea, and then ordered her mother-in-law to bring him.

Sheng Yuan had already been taken by Nanny Yang to the partition door of the side hall. Looking from the inside, she could see the scene outside at a glance, but she still threw herself on the door childishly, her big head almost hitting the edge of the window.

Mrs. Zheng was in a good posture, waiting to intimidate Mrs. Wu. She didn't want to hear a burst of giggles, but when she looked up, it was just as expected, her naughty girl was making trouble, her chubby little face It was almost printed on the green bamboo silk, and I couldn't help laughing.

"Hey, don't tease your mother." Yang's ears were sharp, and when she heard the little maid in the room coughing lightly, she knew that Mrs. Wu had been brought up. She immediately touched Sheng Yuan's head and coaxed, "Let's listen to Mrs. Wu. How to say."

Sheng Yuan nodded hurriedly, and immediately sat upright on Nanny Yang's arm, looking very serious.After all, although she is young, she also knows the priorities, not to mention that she was fighting to come here before, and she didn't come here to play.

Seeing that she was sensible, Nanny Yang touched her neck in relief, and stared at the main hall together with her.

Mrs. Wu was brought here with her hands tied behind her back, half dragged and half carried by two women.

Zheng Shi looked over, his eyes paused on the sweat towel covering Wu Shi's mouth, and his brows frowned slightly.

Immediately, the maid in charge asked the little maid to take it away.

"Mr. Wu?" Mrs. Zheng found that the woman's eyes were sluggish and her face was stunned after she came up, and she seemed to have no reaction to the outside world. There is still no response to the call, and she is not in a hurry.

Sheng Yuan had never seen Nanny Wu in such a mess before. In her memory, this soft-spoken woman, with fair complexion, slender eyebrows and long eyes, looked like someone who walked out of a picture of a lady, and the messy hair in front of her. , the woman whose face and clothes are full of dust is very different.

"You really know how to pretend!" Yang Nanny's disgusted voice sounded in Sheng Yuan's ears, making her look over in confusion.

Nanny Yang quickly touched Sheng Yuan's head and said, "Miss San, if this Mrs. Wu calls your name, don't bother her."

She was afraid that Mrs. Wu would use Sheng Yuan to talk about things and beg for mercy. The children in Sheng Yuan were ignorant and would respond when they heard the shouts, and the scene would be chaotic.

Sheng Yuan nodded vigorously.

"Crack!" Zheng slapped the tea bowl on the table, and his words were like sharp arrows frozen in ice, attacking Wu's "armor" that he had prepared all night, "Wu! I don't care if you are crazy or not." Still acting stupid, there is a saying, just listen to it clearly!
Although you have never sold yourself as a slave, the monthly salary that my family employs you is very generous, not to mention other benefits, just food and money are enough to be accompanied by others. You don’t think that these are all given for nothing, do you?

To put it bluntly, this is buying you and your family's loyalty!You took my family's money, so you should endure the implication caused by it!I don't care what difficulties you have, you can't hurt my child!
Mrs. Wu, when you were employed by my family, we made it clear and clear. You signed the contract after you figured it out. Now, don't act like you're aggrieved, right?

I remember, I told you before that if you have any difficulties, you can come to me.But you didn't, you chose to do it directly, so I can understand that you are willing to be an accomplice?

Do you think you can get away with doing nothing?Do you think I can't ask anything from you, so I can only return without success?Tell you, don't think about it! "

At the end, Mrs. Zheng slapped the table and stood up, with a pair of almond eyes glowing with coldness, coldly looking down at Mrs. Wu who was already fighting a little bit, and with a haughty aura, she raised her voice and said: "Why do you think I lived?" I came to ask you all night?
My Jiangling Zheng family has extended for hundreds of generations, and my in-laws and old relatives are all over Dachu. Do you think that your father, mother, and husband brought your in-laws and children to the south in disguise, and I can't help it?If you want to take money and change your name and surname to live a better life, it depends on whether I agree or not! "

These words caused Wu Shi to be struck by lightning suddenly, her whole body trembled, and the previous dazed state disappeared. At this moment, expressions of shock and fear appeared on her face at the same time.

"Young madam, young madam! Listen to me! I said..." She wanted to rush over to beg for mercy, but the women and servants on both sides couldn't let her go, and a few pairs of big hands pulled and pushed her to the ground , and then pressed her firmly in place.

"You want to say?" Zheng didn't look proud, but just looked at her mockingly, "But I don't want to listen to your answer so soon.

People like you always have to suffer real pain, and only when you see the fate of your children and husbands will you tell the truth!And I don't want to waste any more time with you.

So, let's omit the intermediate process, and let's talk about it when you stop playing tricks!Don't worry, I keep my word, and I will let you see your children and husbands. "

Listening to Zheng's words, Mrs. Wu seemed to have fallen into an ice cave.

She knew very well that the beautiful third young lady in front of her was not cheating on her.Just thinking of a pair of young sons and daughters going to suffer, her heart felt like it was about to be torn apart.

Seeing that the third young lady got up and moved away, and she was about to be dragged away by the mother-in-law and the servant, Wu yelled tremblingly: "It's the Qin family!"

"Who?!" Zheng stopped her pretending movement, and after asking in surprise, she quickly pointed to the maidservant and ordered, "Quick! Lianxin, quick! Call the third master here quickly, and tell him not to move around!"
