Lin Jiabiyu

"Okay, isn't it all like this?" Wen's voice was a little hoarse, the smile on the corner of his mouth was bitter and weak, and he tried hard to suppress the sourness in his eyes, with a disgusted expression on his face, he raised his hand and wiped it vigorously on his face. Wipe off the tear stains on his face, his eyes suddenly became cold and hard, and even his voice was a bit cold, "Second brother's errand, I will mention it to my father later. Whether it can be done or not depends on the second brother's good luck." If it's done, everyone is happy; if it doesn't work, don't blame me, mother. As for other things, I can't do anything as a housewife."

Mrs. Gu felt a little wrong when she heard these words, and looking at Wen's expression, her heart suddenly turned cold. There were worries, embarrassment and pity in her eyes. She opened her mouth, hesitating to persuade her, but she didn't know how to persuade her.

Wen shi looked at the withered plum blossoms in the white porcelain vase on the desk with a face full of sarcasm, with nails embedded in the flesh, and after a while he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked up to see Nanny Lai standing silently behind Wen shi, A sneer suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"Why is Mammy Lai standing here? I'm talking to my mother, Mammy should go out first and wait."

Nanny Lai glanced at Wen Shi in shock and horror, and then hurriedly looked at Mrs. Gu.

Mrs. Gu's face was embarrassed and helpless, she frowned, and pulled Wen's to persuade her: "She is a sensible person, and she has been with me for so many years, she can use it everywhere, so there is no need to avoid it..."

"Mother—" Wen's voice suddenly became sharper, his eyes were a little cold, his expression was serious, and his tone became extremely rude, "I'm talking to my mother, do I need a servant to listen to me? Mother is also confused gone?"

Nanny Lai's face was pale, and she shook her body in horror.Looking at Mrs. Gu as if asking for help, her lips twitched, and she managed to squeeze out a smile that was uglier than crying, and apologized in a trembling voice: "Auntie, I..."

"Mommy, let's go out first." Seeing that Wen's complexion was not right, Madam Gu smiled comfortingly at Nanny Lai, and advised in a gentle voice, "Anyway, it's fine now, why don't you go out and see what's going on at home? The two girls who came here. Be more restrained, they are young and lively, don't make trouble."

Nanny Lai's face turned blue and white, so she had to grit her teeth and agree, and glanced at Wen's, her heart was pounding violently.But he didn't dare to stay any longer, he hurriedly saluted and exited, found the two big girls of Wen's family, scolded them all over his face, and then managed to let go of the suffocation in his chest.

The two big girls were reprimanded for no reason, and they were in someone else's house again.She blushed for a moment, lowered her head and did not dare to speak back.

The other maids in the east courtyard were busy with the work at hand without turning their eyes.Hong Xing, who was waiting at the door, looked at Madam Lai admonishing others, with the corners of her mouth raised, she snorted coldly with contempt, and turned her head to wink at the girls.One of the little girls hastily dropped the broom in her hand and walked over, she smiled at Madam Lai and said, "Why are Mama Lai and the two elder sisters standing here blowing air? Come in and rest, there is still some good tea in the anteroom. It's all given to us by the masters. If you don't mind, go in and have a bowl of tea."

Mammy Lai saw the little girl smiling happily.The tone was gentle again, but there was still some anger in his heart, and it was not easy to get angry at this time, so he nodded, and gave the two girls of Wen's family a warning look, and then followed the little girl to the ear room.

Seeing Nanny Lai left, another little girl came up to persuade her with a smile: "You two sisters, don't stand in the middle of this courtyard and blow the air. If you don't mind, come sit in our room and wash your hands anyway. Get rid of the ashes on your face."

After hearing this, the two older girls knew that it was the younger girl who took care of face to turn around for the two of them, so they hurriedly smiled and thanked them, and the younger girl led them into the next room.

In the main room, Wen looked coldly at the scene in the yard through the pane, and said with a sneer, "Did mother see it? Such a disgraceful thing should have been sold long ago! You still come in front of me to block the eyes! I respect you." He is an old man from the Duke's Mansion, so he gave her a little bit of dignity, but she is rampant, and the embarrassment is thrown at other people's homes."

Mrs. Gu opened her mouth, her face flushed with shame, she frowned in embarrassment and helplessness, she was silent for a moment, but she still couldn't bear it, so she tried to persuade her: "After all, she is an old man in the house, and she is just like half the master. , even your father and your elder brother respect her a little bit. But you gave her shame like that, and I am not convinced..."

"That's the dignity given by the master!" Wen's interrupted Mrs. Gu's words unceremoniously, and her face turned sharp, "She has no shame herself, so why don't you want me to see her face?" Seeing Mrs. Gu murmuring Wanting to make an excuse, Wen sneered, and stopped back, "Mother is too good-natured! Even a slave can handle it casually. Mother listens to everything she says, and she counts by herself, and she is instigated How many wronged things have you done? Mother can't see clearly, and she still listens to her! Now that she came back to the north, what did she persuade her mother? Take the whole family over? Use the name of Xining Wangfu to show off her might ? How many properties should I buy?”

Mrs. Gu's face turned blue from being blocked by Wen's, her lips were pursed, she looked at Wen's in embarrassment and heartache, and tried to defend herself, but found that what her daughter said was inseparable. Sighing, the tears fell again.

"Mother, don't cry too. You don't have to make people feel bad for being a slave." Wen's voice was cold and full of sarcasm.This is her mother. She can humble herself for her husband and her son and grandson, but she never tried her best to defend her daughter.In the mother's eyes, her daughter might not even be comparable to a servant girl.What else can she say?What can I expect?

Mrs. Gu felt resentful and desolate when she heard Wen's words. She felt guilty and knew that she was too soft-tempered. She was afraid that her daughter's heart would be chilled, so she hurriedly stopped crying, and forced a smile: "Mom also knows what you said. Yes, it's just that this is Lu's other courtyard after all, it's not easy to offend someone, and it won't be too late to send her off after I find a house and move out. I beat her in private, thinking she would be ashamed, and I won't do it again in the future. "

Wen closed her eyes dejectedly, with a lonely and sarcastic smile on her lips, she felt exhausted and powerless from head to toe, and even found it hard to speak, so she simply leaned against the pillow on the kang, no longer speech.

In the outer courtyard, Second Master Wen happily told Lu Junqing what he had seen and heard along the way, tongue-twitting non-stop, and when he was happy, he waved his fan and danced for a while.

Lu Junqing smiled gently, ordered the servant to serve tea, and listened quietly to Second Master Wen's chatter, interjecting a word or two occasionally.

Second Master Wen lamented the prosperity of Weiyuan City, and finally remembered the business. He drank half a bowl of tea, breathed out comfortably, and smiled at Lu Junqing while patting his fat belly, "I'm not going to lie to my brother-in-law. , if my father hadn't forced me this time, I really wouldn't have come to the north, I didn't expect it to be the right way! Hey, has my brother-in-law heard about our family's affairs?"

Before Lu Junqing could reply, Second Master Wen said on his own: "Father was all about clinging to the eldest prince, but later on, when the emperor went to the funeral, the eldest prince forged the imperial edict, and the Wen family was also implicated. Alas, the imperial court decreed to seize the eldest prince." The title of the Wen family was taken, and many of the family’s farms were also taken over by the court. My father made a big fuss about this matter. People in the capital are in panic these days, and the elder brother in front was almost beaten when he went out. My father let me and My mother came to see the house first, and I thought that my father wanted to move the Wen family to the north, I thought it was cold and cold in the north, so it was not interesting, but now I see it with my own eyes, I think it is good, hehe."

Speaking of this, Second Master Wen wiped his face embarrassedly, and smiled at Lu Junqing, "Hey, I can't even find my way in the north, and I have to trouble my brother-in-law to find someone to help me palm my eyes, so as not to be embezzled by others. .”

There was a sneer in Lu Junqing's heart, but the smile on his face was still gentle. Seeing Erye Wen's simple and honest smile, he sighed secretly, and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, don't worry, just watch slowly. Second Uncle Brother and mother will live in this yard first, and I will find two more useful people for you later."

Hearing this, Second Master Wen narrowed his eyes with a smile, and quickly patted Lu Junqing's arm to thank him: "Thank you brother-in-law for your concern. I am relieved that my brother-in-law is here."

At the end of the hour, Princess Wei watched Fengyuan being tidied up, and the boxes of Mrs. Gu and Second Master Wen were carried in. Then she took a rest and went to the main courtyard to see that Lin Wan had arrived.

In the main courtyard, Mrs. Liu was talking to Lin Wan about the exquisiteness of children's clothes with a needle and thread. When she saw Princess Wei coming in, she greeted the ceremony with a busy smile.

Princess Wei looked at the little clothes in Mrs. Liu's hands, she immediately smiled, and said with surprise and joy: "Hey, why do you still do this? We haven't seen children's clothes in our family for many years. They are all stupid Clumsy, no one can do this well! Even Nanny Xing has been with me all these years, and she can’t do it well!" As he spoke, he took the half-baked clothes from Mrs. Liu, flipped them over and looked at them several times, Can't help but praise, "I like this dress just looking at it, and I'll learn how to sew two pieces from you later!"

Lin Wan laughed and pulled Princess Wei to persuade her: "Mother is still in charge of the house, have you ever been troubled? I already have more than a dozen pieces of clothes in my room, and they are all made after discussion between the girls and the two nuns. Yes. Even Nanny Xing received two injections, and I think it looks fine."

Nanny Xing hurriedly waved her hands and said with a smile: "Don't listen to the Second Young Madam, I'm so ashamed! My little needlework is not enough to look at, so I can only praise the Second Young Madam!"

Mrs. Liu also laughed, "I've spoiled this girl at home, so it's fine if she can't do needlework well, and she's so tired that the nuns and the princess will do it! If she dislikes her again, won't she slap herself in the face? I can't help but make two for her, so I can get away with it and cover it up."

What he said made everyone laugh.

After chatting for a while, guessing that Lu Junzhao would be back by now, Mrs. Liu got up to say goodbye, Princess Wei did not hesitate, and together with Lin Wan, they sent him out with a smile.

After seeing off Mrs. Liu, Princess Wei took people to the East Courtyard again, and told Mrs. Gu with a smile about being placed in Fengyuan, and said that she would take Mrs. Gu to have a look at the courtyard.

Mrs. Gu hurriedly thanked her, and went to Fengyuan together with Wen's family. Seeing that people had packed up their luggage, she thanked Princess Wei once more. Seeing that Princess Wei smiled kindly, the courtyard is big and the scenery is good. My heart also slowly sank, but I still had some doubts, thinking that I had to ask my daughter carefully when I turned around. (To be continued.
