wives and concubines
Chapter 123 The Incident
When Hu Po came in, she whispered in Chun Ge's ear, "Ma'am, Ju Rong seems to be in a panic." After hesitating for a while, she added: "It is also said that the eldest wife and even the eldest grandma have come over."
Chun Ge immediately became alert.
Could it be that something happened to Duan Lang again.
During this period of time, he was busy with Rui Niang's marriage, and he hadn't taken care of the things that Duan Lang came to the Li family to learn.
Thinking of Duan Lang coming over, he couldn't pull his hand away, instead he was even more flustered, it only took a few days to be left and right.
Chunge was so anxious that she had to put on airs in front of the servants, so she threw the account book in her hand on the four-legged mahogany table next to it, and bumped into the small copper incense burner that was burning red sandalwood incense, making a rattling sound.
After reacting, he calmly said: "If Mrs. Tai has something important to do, you should go down first and come back to talk in the afternoon."
The women are used to winking, so they all backed out.
Chunge hurried to Mrs. Tai with amber and jade.
Hongyu and Lvyu who stayed in the house helped Mama Tong to pack her things, and she saw Mama Tong staring at the incense burner on the desk, she suddenly lost her temper, turned around and said bitterly: "This incense Who ordered it!"
A room full of little maids were terrified and looked at each other a few times, but no one dared to stand up and answer.
Mama Tong raised her voice with a cold face: "I don't admit it and I don't say anything. I'm going to ask Mama Zhang. What you should do every day is recorded in a booklet. Let me find it out. I have to peel it off." She's skinny!"
It was the first time for Hongyu and Lvyu to hear such ruthless words from Mama Tong, who is so experienced and can win over people. They were shocked and knew that things were not easy.
Hongyu stood up and said: "Mom is still telling them what to do, maybe we want to look at the booklet for assigning errands, and Zhang's mother will stop me."
Luyu also cooperated with the gesture and was about to go out.
A maid wearing a small blue cotton padded coat saw that the green jade was about to step out of the threshold. She couldn't stand up and fell out. She kowtowed on the ground and said: "Mom, please forgive me, I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it."
Mother Tong was impatient and angry at the same time when she thought of what she had discovered.
But this kind of thing can't be dealt with in front of so many people, so he held back his anger and said: "Forgive me, you dare to exchange the good incense in Madam's house in private, and bring some defective products. I can still forgive you! "
He winked at Hongyu and Lvyu and said, "Take her to the Baosha at the back, and we'll ask her carefully."
When he spoke, the veins popped out on his face.
Other women and maidservants came up to help, but Mama Tong refused.
Covering their mouths all the way, He Hongyu and Luyu took the little maid away neatly.
The rest muttered a few words beside them, all with pale faces, saying that this maid named Ming'er has no sense of propriety, and even dared to bring some inferior things from the wife's house.Only the elderly women sighed.
----------------------
Ming'er was taken to a small room in Baoxia and locked up, and when she saw Mama Tong sitting in front of her with hatred on her face, she knew something was wrong, so she hugged Mama Tong's leg and kept crying.
Seeing that Tong’s mother was still gnashing her teeth, she cried and called Hongyu and Lvyu sisters, and kept saying that she was wrong, that she shouldn’t have changed the incense, but she refused to admit that she used the second one as a good one. .Just say I made a mistake in a moment of haste.
Mama Tong's heart ached when she heard that, she slapped her across the face, and cursed: "You little bastard, do this kind of trick in front of me. I've lived to this age, and I've eaten more food than you've ever seen. You said you made a mistake, but I don’t know. There are three types of incense in Madam’s house: red sandalwood, pihan, and moon brocade. The smell has faded, but it really smells like red sandalwood. It's a pity, old woman, my ancestors used to do perfumery work, you dare to play tricks like this in front of me!"
Ming'er's face was as pale as paper when she heard this, her body was trembling all the time, and she didn't dare to utter a word anymore.
Mother Tong was still flustered, and kicked over again, "You guys are restless all day long. If you look at Madam's good temper, you dare to go to the sky. When you light Jiuhe incense in Madam's room, what you hit is What are you thinking, when Madam comes back, I will peel your skin! The Duke will not spare you!"
Ming'er heard Grandpa Guo's words, but seemed to lose her soul, she was stunned for a while, and crawled to Mama Tong, begging for mercy bitterly.
"Mother Tong, you've spared me, you've spared me. Lily has confessed, and I don't dare not to do it. Our family only has Gouzi and a boy. If Lily is upset, go back and tell her the head of the house. Gouzi They will surely be killed."
Mama Tong was at a loss when she heard it, and she didn't know what Ming'er was talking about, but she felt that this matter was different from what she had guessed before. I'm afraid it wasn't as simple as the servant girl lighting up Jiuliu spices to take the opportunity to get on the master's bed. He drank and said, "You tell me clearly from the beginning to the end."
Ming'er heard this and knew that things had turned around, so she wiped away her tears and started talking intermittently.
"Lily is in charge of the big kitchen, and she is in charge of purchasing in the outer courtyard. Gouzi has been working with her in the outer courtyard since he was ten years old. He has been bullied a lot. It all depends on our family's good relationship with Lily. It has been better in the past few years. Our family has always been grateful to Lily. On the eighth day of last month, Lily came to our house to gossip, so she gave me a box of incense, saying that I was in charge of the incense in the wife's house, and asked me to put this every day. The incense went in and burned, and I immediately said I didn’t dare, for fear that someone would find out and lose my life. But Lily said that it was mixed with the original spice, so others would not be able to smell it. It also made me think about my brother. I carried it back and said that I made a mistake and was beaten ten boards."
As she said that, Ming'er burst into tears, "Mama Tong, I don't want to, I don't dare to harm my wife even if I have ten courage. I also asked someone, this spice is overbearing, it's just messing up my life, Nothing serious will happen. Just spare me!"
Hearing the words "Little Days", a flash of light flashed in Mama Tong's mind, and she stood up abruptly. After she figured it out, her whole body was completely cold, she sat softly on the chair, and said in a daze: "Really, really, I'm so confused!"
Seeing Ming'er who was still crying, Mama Tong picked up the small machine next to her and threw it on Ming'er's head.
Ming'er was so panicked that she narrowly escaped by rolling and crawling.
Hongyu and Lvyu didn't know what Mama Tong was thinking, but seeing Mama Tong's appearance, they hurried up to stop her from smashing, and persuaded: "Mom, Mom, calm down, you have to wait for any big things to happen." Come back and talk about it, madam!"
Tong's mother burst into tears and cried bitterly: "What do you know, my poor girl, in vain I saw the incense that my father mixed all his life, and I didn't even notice it. I hurt the girl, I hurt the girl."
After beating his chest and feet, and crying a few more times, he passed away.
Hongyu and Lvyu turned pale with fright, went up to support Mama Tong, and then looked at Ming'er who was shivering on the ground in embarrassment.It was Hongyu who made up her mind, and called two trustworthy women to come and watch over her, and helped Mama Tong back to rest, but anxiously waited for Chunge to come back to make the decision.
Chun Ge, who was sitting beside Mrs. Tai, was also very anxious.
I never expected that the eldest lady came here today, not to talk about anything else, but to talk about Brother Wu's marriage. Although she was vaguely probing Li Jian'an and Mrs. Tai's intentions, but seeing the angry expression on Mrs. Tai's face, she knew that Mrs. Wu Today must be extremely publicized.
First it was Rui Niang, and then Wu Geer.
Rui Niang is a concubine, so it's fine for Chen Chunfang to call the shots.Brother Wu is Li Jian'an's only legitimate son, who will inherit the title in the future.Even if Li Jian'an and Mrs. Tai are gone, there is still the queen in the palace.
The eldest wife, a grandmother, is from the Chen family, but she wants to decide the marriage of the grandson of the Li family.
I don't know what the eldest lady is thinking, but she still thinks that the chosen person will definitely catch the eyes of Li Jian'an and Mrs. Tai.
Mrs. Tai leaned on the pillow and sighed, but Li Jianan just had a sullen face and didn't speak.
Pure song feels like sitting on pins and needles.
The eldest wife did such a thing, and she, the daughter of the Chen family, also felt embarrassed.
I just don't know what Li Jian'an and Mrs. Tai mean by calling me here, and whether Chen Chunfang knows about these things.
In a state of apprehension, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Hu Po's figure flickering from a distance.
An ominous premonition immediately floated up.
Amber acted calmly, especially in Mrs. Tai's yard, and with Li Jian'an around, she would not wander around anyway.Something must have happened!
One after another.
Chunge felt a terrible headache, and had to cheer up to discuss the meaning of Mrs. Tai.
"Mother, I want to go out and have a look."
Mrs. Tai also followed Mama Li's eyes and noticed something unusual outside, and nodded.
Chun Ge hurriedly stood up, and before she could go out, she heard Mama Tong's cry.
"Mrs. Grandpa, you have to decide for our wife!"
Chunge is in a hurry, what's going on with Mama Tong, even if it's something terrible, she can't shout it in the Tai Furen's courtyard.
Turning around to see Li Jianan, his face was already sinking like water.
Chun Ge hurriedly squatted down and said apologetically: "Mother, Grandpa, Mama Tong is getting old and has acted out of proportion. I will make an apology for you on her behalf."
Li Jianan snorted coldly.
Mrs. Tai didn't speak.
Mama Tong shouted again outside, "Mrs. Tai, Mr. Guo, our wife is wronged!"
Li Jian'an raised his brows, and slapped the small round machine at hand, looked at Chun Ge, and said in a cold tone, "Tell me, what's wrong with you!" He said in a cold and stern tone that he had never had before.
So I am cheeky, I am going to eat at a friend's house today, and I have to eat a meal when I use a computer. It's a disaster... I will buy a computer tomorrow, and I decided to buy a notebook. It's too cold, like A relative said that the notebook can be written on the bed!
Chun Ge immediately became alert.
Could it be that something happened to Duan Lang again.
During this period of time, he was busy with Rui Niang's marriage, and he hadn't taken care of the things that Duan Lang came to the Li family to learn.
