stormy clouds

Early in the morning of the second day, Xu Youkang left the house in high spirits.

Chang Luoyao learned a lesson from the previous day, and got up earlier than usual. After washing, she was accompanied by Chunrui to the Jinyu Courtyard.

As soon as they arrived at the door, they met Aunt Qiu and Aunt Dong who happened to go to Jinyuyuan to say hello.

Chang Luoyao glanced at the two of them, pursed her lips slightly and did not speak.

Aunt Qiu glanced at her and smiled slightly, but Aunt Dong stepped forward and said with a disdainful smile: "I don't know how Aunt Chang rested well yesterday, if it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to feel at ease like this."

Chang Luoyao knew that she was deliberately finding fault, thinking that she had promised Xu Youkang not to be willful yesterday, so she endured it and ignored her.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Aunt Dong decided that she had a guilty conscience, and said even more angrily: "Aunt Chang is fine with being frivolous outside, but now when she enters the mansion, she still has to abide by the rules in the mansion, don't let people say that she is seductive."

In front of so many people, Aunt Dong's words undoubtedly slapped Chang Luoyao severely. Humei, aren't you?

If you don't want to deceive the Lord, you don't need to say these words. I'm afraid you want to deceive the Lord, but you don't have the capital to deceive the Lord. "

"You really have no shame, it's thanks to you that you can say such a thing." Aunt Dong blushed, feeling ashamed and embarrassed.

"You can tell, why can't I tell?" Chang Luoyao looked at her and deliberately annoyed her.

"Okay, don't say a few words." Standing at the door, Mrs. Zhang glanced at Chang Luoyao and Aunt Dong, "Forget about it today, and if anyone picks up trouble in the future, don't blame me for not being sympathetic."

The three aunts had their own concerns, but they all knelt down and saluted her unanimously.

Mrs. Zhang was silent for a while, then turned around and said, "Come in."

The three aunts followed her into the house.

The room is very spacious, and the furnishings inside are quite satisfactory, but the pair of red porcelain thin-mouthed pot-bellied bottles on the antique shelf are exquisite and graceful, which makes the room a bit more elegant and noble.

Mrs. Zhang sat at the mahogany carved table in front of the window, looking at the three of them thoughtfully, "When I took the three of you into the mansion to become aunts, I thought that you were all knowledgeable. From now on, in the same yard, everyone Always give in to each other.

How could you know that you have just entered the mansion, and you have a suspicion about which courtyard the eldest son goes to. "

She narrowed her eyes and looked at the three of them with a half-smile, "Originally, I have made arrangements according to your age, but now Aunt Chang broke the rules first, it is inevitable that Aunt Qiu and Aunt Dong have thoughts in their hearts.

Otherwise, since the son went to Aunt Chang's yard yesterday and wronged Aunt Qiu, the son will go to Guixiang Garden for the next two days, do you have any opinions? "

As soon as Aunt Dong heard it, she immediately agreed, as long as it made Chang Luoyao embarrassed, she would be happy, "Sister Qiu was wronged yesterday, it should be like this."

"Where's Aunt Chang? Do you have anything to say?" Mrs. Zhang looked at Chang Luoyao and asked.

"Madam is the one who decides." Although Chang Luoyao was not angry, she had already offended Mrs. Cheng'an, and if she wanted Zhang to target her, then this uncle's mansion would really become a pit of fire.

Only then did Zhang's face soften, and he smiled and said: "The night is long now, and I have no one to talk to here, and it's very boring. These two days, my aunt should come and live here at night, and we can just talk."

Chang Luoyao raised her head in surprise, met Zhang's eyes, and lowered her head again.

"Aunt Mo very unwilling?" Mrs. Zhang said with a smile.

"I'm clumsy with my tongue, and I'm afraid of disturbing Madam's cleanliness." Chang Luoyao said embarrassingly.

Mrs. Zhang laughed, "It's just talking, it's not writing beautiful articles. Besides, Aunt Chang is a smart person, so why is she so clumsy with her tongue?"

Chang Luoyao knew that she couldn't evade, so she could only bow her head and agree.

After leaving the Jinyu Courtyard, Chunrui came up to help Chang Luoyao, saw her look sleepy, and said: "Miss, you haven't had a good rest these two days, you should sleep for a while when you go back."

Chang Luoyao shook her head, and when she walked to a place where no one was around, she stopped, "Chunrui, madam asked me to live in Jinyu Courtyard tonight."

Chunrui was surprised and said: "Okay, why do you want to live in Jinyu Courtyard?"

"They said they wanted me to talk to her." Chang Luoyao laughed at herself, "I really don't know what to talk about between me and her."

Chunrui's face turned serious, "Or else I'll go talk to Shi Zi and let him push it."

Chang Luoyao looked gloomy, "Let's forget it, the prince came to me yesterday and already made others unhappy. If the prince is asked to come forward for this matter, I'm afraid someone will have more to say."

"But, lady"

"Isn't it just to stay for two nights? Could she still eat me?" Chang Luoyao said harshly, "After this month, everything will be fine."

Chunrui thought about it, the reasoning was so reasonable, but she always felt something was wrong in her heart.

At night, Zi Wan walked to Qingfeng Garden with a smile, "Aunt Chang, Madam asked me to pick you up, I don't know if you have packed up."

Chunrui came out with the quilt for Chang Luoyao, Zi Wan glanced at it and said with a smile: "Everything is ready for Madam, there is no use for it."

Chunrui said: "Our lady is weak, so the quilt should be softer than ordinary people's."

"Could there be less bedding for Madam? Girl, you are too worried."

"Okay, Chunrui." Chang Luoyao said: "Madam doesn't have anything, you can take them back."

Chunrui had no choice but to take back the packed bundle.

Chang Luoyao followed Ziwan to the Jinyu Courtyard, where Mrs. Zhang had already washed and lay down on the bed.

There is no extra warmth in the room, only a thin layer of mattresses are spread on the feet, and Zi Wan should sleep here on weekdays.

Mrs. Zhang saw them coming in, and ordered: "Since Aunt Chang is here, Zi Wan, you don't have to wait here."

Zi Wan agreed to take the door and go out.

Zhang Shi and Chang Luoyao said a few insignificant words, then closed their eyes.

Chang Luoyao saw that Zhang Shi seemed to be asleep, so she dimmed the lamp a bit, arranged the quilt on the footrest, and slept on it with her clothes together.

The quilt was extremely thin, and the pedals were cold and hard. Sleeping on it made my back hurt.Chang Luoyao finally fell asleep when Zhang Shi said, "Aunt Chang, go and bring me a bowl of water."

Chang Luoyao had no choice but to stand up and pour water for her.

Unexpectedly, there was no water in the pot on the table, and the small stove in the house was also extinguished.Chang Luoyao had no choice but to go outside to ask her mother-in-law for water.

There was no one in the huge courtyard at this time, probably the woman who was watching the night was lazy and had already gone back to sleep.

Chang Luoyao had no choice but to take the pot and go to the kitchen to ask for hot water. When she got to the house, Mrs. Zhang had already fallen asleep.

Being blown by the cold wind, Chang Luoyao felt more and more cold all over her body.As soon as she was lying on the couch and covered with a quilt, Mrs. Zhang yelled again, "Aunt Chang, have you brought any water?"

Chang Luoyao was dizzy, so she had to get up to pour water, and when she brought the water to Mrs Zhang, Mrs Zhang only took a sip and said: "This water is too hot, let it cool down before drinking."

Chang Luoyao brought the water back and let it sit for a while, Zhang said again: "This water is too cold, go and pour some warm water."

After tossing around like this all night, in the morning, Chang Luoyao only felt dizzy and dizzy. When she crossed the threshold, her feet hooked to the threshold, and she fell straight down. Her stomach was unbiased, and she just hit the threshold.
