On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Chapter 295 Newlywed 2
Aunt Mo also specially asked her maid to send some peach cakes and sesame cakes to Sangyuyuan.

Of course, giving snacks was an excuse, mainly to stop the son from leading the bride to her yard.

This is against the rules, and I'm worried that my wife will find out about it and use it as an excuse.

After Mr. Xiao returns home, he can go to Sangyu Courtyard for a walk, and they can also come to his side for a walk.

After Guixiang came back, she went to reply: "Auntie, please feel at ease. The eldest son said that he has remembered it."

Aunt Mo asked again: "What is he doing?"

"The eldest son is reading the newspaper in the study room," Guixiang said with a smile, "When he saw the food box sent by the slave, he said he just wanted the snacks made by my aunt."

Aunt Mo couldn't help laughing: "How could he be hungry these days?"

Even if the madam is harsh on her son, she will not embarrass them during the wedding days.

Thinking that his son would not be able to stay at home for a few days, he couldn't help but laugh: "In their yard, except for the two women and two maids brought by Mrs. Xiao, the rest are all Mrs.'s people. I don't know if Mrs. Xiao can eliminate."

She had no idea of ​​helping, thinking in her mind that if Mrs. Xiao couldn't even subdue and control the people in the yard, she would be afraid that she wouldn't even be able to keep her children in the future.

Aunt Mo knew that the birth of a son by her husband was already a thorn in Madam's heart that was difficult to remove.

That would never allow Mrs. Xiao to get pregnant first.

So much so that the Xiao family proposed to consummate their marriage next year, and it was in line with Madam's wishes that they agreed so happily.

But the eldest young master is her son, so her thoughts must be different from the madam's.

It was not that she didn't know that Madam had taken action against her, but in order to make Madam angry, she still drank a 'tonic' that contained too many medicinal ingredients that she shouldn't have.

What she thought at that time was that she already had a son, and being able to protect her son when he grew up was enough for her to worry about.

Fortunately, there was still an old lady sitting in charge at that time, and she protected her secretly, so nothing happened.

But if Madam takes action against Mrs. Xiao and makes her drink the 'tonic', Mrs. Xiao will not be able to give birth to a son in the future.

Seven out and three out, Wu Zi ranks first.

After a few years, the second mistress gave birth to a son, and the eldest mistress separated because she had no children, so the madam's anger should have been almost gone.

She closed her eyes: Mrs. Xiao, don't blame me for watching with cold eyes. I won't remind you or harm you. It depends on whether you are smart enough.

Of course, if Xiao's life is good and she can successfully give birth to a child, she can secure her position as the eldest mistress.

Guixiang glanced at her aunt and said, "I didn't see the eldest mistress. I heard from Menghui who was doing needlework outside the door. Where is the eldest mistress practicing calligraphy in the house?"

Aunt Dong was not angry after hearing this: "It's good to know how to make progress."

She has not met Xiao Xiao a few times now. Although she doesn't like him, she looks pleasing to the eye.

It can be said that Xiao is much stronger than imagined.

At this time, Yulan came in from outside in a panic: "Auntie, it's not good, I heard that the eldest young lady accepted a beautiful maid given by a madam."

"What?" Aunt Mo, who was sitting there relaxingly and drinking tea, suddenly sat there with her back straight: "When did you accept the person? Did the mother next to Madam send it to you?"

Then he looked at Guixiang: "When you went to deliver snacks, the young master didn't mention this to you?"

Yulan was the eldest maid, and she didn't have to do the laundry and cleaning. Aunt Mo asked her to bring some fruits and snacks to the yard to talk to the maid who was not on duty.

Even the maid and mother-in-law knew that Yu Lan was here to inquire about information.

But Aunt Mo always asked people around her to bring them food. She was soft on others and cannibalism was the shortest way. They were willing to tell Yulan what they could. And after Aunt Mo put it all together, she was able to get a lot of useful information.

Therefore, Aunt Mo also knows a lot about the backyard.

Guixiang spoke first: "No, the eldest young master may not have gone to the main room yet, so he doesn't know about this yet, right?"

Yu Lan also followed: "The little maid who brought tea in Madam's yard said that she doesn't know much. Why don't I go inquire again?"

Aunt Mo nodded solemnly: "Both of you, go and inquire and find a chance to see if the red sleeves and others beside Madam are still there."

She also knew that Madam bought several beautiful little maids the year before last and asked Mother Zhou to train them.

Maybe he was afraid that the general would see what those little maids were thinking about, so he usually learned the rules and did needlework and wouldn't let them go out.

Aunt Mo knew in her heart that the maid was most likely prepared for the young masters at home.

But Madam is usually a very thoughtful person on the surface?

How could they arrange a marriage for the eldest son of a concubine just after they got married?

Doesn't this seem like something a madam would do?
She was puzzled and prepared to collect more information.

And Li Yan really didn't know that there was a beautiful maid in the yard. He let his young wife get excited and read the newspaper in the study for half an hour. Then he went to his father's study to meet with his father and his staff. Ask for information in the newspaper.

When it was almost time for dinner, the waiter said that Mrs. Zhou’s mother was here.

General Li asked his staff to go down first before letting Zhou's mother in.

After Zhou's mother came in, she saw that the eldest young master was there, and she secretly cried out that it was unlucky. After saying goodbye, she smiled and said: "General, dinner is ready. Madam, please move on."

General Li took advantage of the situation and called his son: "Boss, come with me."

Now that Li Yan had someone he was worried about, he made an excuse to refuse: "Father, go first, son first go back to the yard to change clothes."

General Li saw that his son was no longer wearing the bright red wedding robe of yesterday, but had changed into a dark red uniform, embroidered with large and exquisite flowers.

He couldn't help but take another look: "I didn't expect you to look good in red."

Fathers are not very good at praising others: "He is very much like those handsome and handsome men in dramas with autumn eyes, peach blossoms on their faces."

"It's true that Buddha needs gold and people need clothes."

Li Yan felt that his biological father was still very discerning, so he couldn't help but show off: "Ms. Xiao prepared it for me. He said that he would wear red for three days after the wedding."

"She also prepared scarlet and scarlet robes for me, but I don't even want to wear them."

It would be impossible for someone else to ask him to wear this brightly colored robe.

But of course he would wear the clothes, shoes and socks that Xiao Xiao prepared for him.

Although he also knew that these clothes, shoes and socks were made by the embroiderer, she had also done a few stitches, and what mattered was her intention.

General Li suddenly felt a toothache after hearing this. Don't think he can't hear this brat. Complaining to yourself is false, showing off is true.

"Come on, you know your wife is virtuous, right?" He waved his hand impatiently: "Hurry up and don't be an eyesore in front of me."

Li Yan also turned around and left very rudely.

When he returned to the yard, he saw a woman brought by Xiao Xiao and the woman sweeping the yard in the corner, cracking melon seeds and chatting happily. They didn't even see him go in.
