Chapter 65 The Aunt ([-])

Seeing her like this, Yao Cunmei has drooping head, slender pink neck, delicate body, and is pitiful, isn't she the appearance of a vixen?Presumably it was this appearance that seduced father so fascinated?
"You little slut, who are you going to show this look to?" Yao Cunmei became annoyed, she stood up and stepped on Mingxia's hand.

When she kicked down, Mingxia's hands would bleed and be injured, and if she saw blood, there would be a big fuss, maybe even Master Yao would intervene!Ma Qunfang, Xiurong, and Xianqiao didn't care about Yao Cunmei's feelings, they all stepped forward to stop Yao Cunmei with an exclamation, stopped Yao Cunmei and tried to persuade her, Mingxia was stunned, and squatted on the ground in a daze.

"What are you doing to stop me? Is it reversed!"

"Cousin, calm down, it's not worth it, don't be impulsive!" Ma Qunfang hugged Yao Cunmei, who was struggling fiercely, and said to Hongyu and Hongxiu: "Why don't you help Fourth Aunt up quickly, what are you doing in a daze? !"

Only then did Hongyu and Hongxiu come back to their senses, they hurriedly supported Mingxia, and carefully took the porcelain tea leaves in her hands.

"Which of you dares to help her! She is used to being a slave and still needs someone to help her? When did she become so precious!"

"Cousin, don't be like this!" Ma Qunfang said something in her ear quickly, Yao Cunmei shut up, and Ma Qunfang hurriedly said: "Hongyu, Hongxiu, help your aunt go back! Go back and change clothes , Fourth Aunt, be careful next time, don't spill tea again!"

"The concubines know, they are all clumsy maids and concubines." Mingxia blinked her eyelids lightly, bowed her knees and saluted Yao Cunmei: "Concubine maids will leave." Then she went out.

Yao Cunmei was still puzzled and cursed, but she didn't rush forward to make things difficult.

As soon as he left Qionglin Garden, tears flowed down uncontrollably, soaking the silk handkerchief.

I have always known that being a concubine is extremely difficult, but whether I like it or not, this path is chosen by myself, and no matter how difficult it is, I have to endure it!

Tonight is the fifteenth day, according to everyone's rules, master Yao will rest in the main courtyard tonight.

Because of Mingxia's incident, everyone in Yao's residence secretly wanted to watch Madam Ma as a joke. At this juncture, Master Yao could not ignore Madam's decency.

If Mrs. Ma loses face, damages her prestige, and is despised by everyone, the next step will inevitably lead to chaos and many accidents. As the head of the family, Master Yao absolutely does not want this to happen.

What's more, he doesn't hate Ma Shi.In his heart, Ma Shi is still a qualified and competent mistress, so there is no need not to show her face!

So today, Master Yao did not go to Mingxia's side, but went to the main courtyard early, had dinner with Mrs. Ma, and then rested there again.

He wants everyone to know that the mistress has not fallen out of favor, that the mistress is still the head of the family and the person whom the master respects most in his heart. If anyone wants to move other thoughts, they have to weigh it carefully.

What about Liuhua Mountain House?After Mingxia returned from Qionglin Garden, she changed her clothes, washed her face, and then sat under the window of the moon hole to do needlework. She didn't say a word about what happened to Qionglin Garden.

Hongyu and Hongxiu looked at each other and winked, but couldn't help feeling sympathy and admiration for her.Then I thought about the same girl, why should she ascend to the sky and become the master in one step, not to mention wearing gold and silver, but also have to serve two of her own, my heart became unbalanced, wishing that she would be even more unlucky!Seeing that she was quiet, she just stayed silent and didn't say anything to persuade her.

Hongyu and Hongxiu originally thought that Master Yao would come to appease Fourth Aunt at night, and even if he didn't come, he would definitely send someone to say a few words, but there was no movement at all.

This is a bit interesting, the corners of their mouths turned up, and they looked at Mingxia with two points of disdain: they thought they could be proud for a long time, but after a few days, they were ignored by the master!
Mingxia also felt faintly disappointed in her heart, she had a tasteless dinner, regained her senses, and closed the door early to sleep.

In the dead of night, a figure quietly came out of Liuhua Mountain House, and went to Luomei Courtyard without making a sound.

In Luomei courtyard, Yao Cunhui and Rong Ma were waiting.Today Mingxia quietly handed over a note, saying that she would see her at night.

"My concubine pays respects to the second young lady." Mingxia collected herself and bowed to Yao Cunhui.

"Forget it!" Yao Cunhui sized her up, frowned, and said, "You are not free now, why did you take the risk to come here tonight? Tell me what you have to say, and go back quickly."

Hongyu and Hongxiu are maids arranged by Mrs. Ma, how could they not stare at Mingxia?Maybe just waiting for an opportunity to make a trip.

"Second Miss, don't worry, Master went to Madam's place tonight, Hongyu and Hongxiu won't do anything." Mingxia smiled.

Hongyu and Hongxiu are in charge of monitoring her, the most important thing is to eavesdrop on whether she said something about eye drops in front of Master Yao, and if Master Yao is not around, of course they will sleep in peace.Maybe he thought Mingxia was sad in the room, who would care about her?
Yao Cunhui smiled slightly and motioned for her to say.

"The concubine wants to ask the second lady for some medicine," Mingxia said, looking at Yao Cunhui, and continued: "Safflower, Glauber's salt, and Gansui, please send someone to buy some for the concubine quietly. This is silver." As Mingxia spoke, she took out a small purse, poured out two pieces of broken silver from it, and gently placed it on the tea table beside her.

"Fourth aunt, what do you want these things for? Do you know what they are used for?" Rong's mother couldn't help but change color.

These are all abortion pills.

She bought such medicine just after being taken over by the master. Could it be that she had secretly communicated with the master for a song?No, if that's the case, the master would have taken her in a long time ago, so why are you sneaking around?Could it be that before the master, she and other men——

Rong Ma's eyes froze, and she stared sharply at Mingxia: "Could it be that you have it?"

"No," Mingxia said softly, "Mother Rong, you misunderstood! The concubine wants these medicines for other purposes." After speaking, she simply explained to Yao Cunhui and Rong Ma.

Rong Ma's heart relaxed, but she still frowned and said: "In the back house, such things are the most taboo. If someone finds that there is only one dead word, how can Second Miss buy such things with you?" Something! Second Miss, from the perspective of an old slave—"

"Take back the money and keep it for use. Without the money, your life will not be easy. I will ask someone to buy the medicine you mentioned in three days, and I will see how I give it to you at that time." Yao Cunhui agreed without hesitation. After getting down, he ordered Rong Ma to take out two ten taels of silver bills and give them to her, "Take it, be generous when you should be generous, and life will be more comfortable."

"My concubine, Miss Xie." Facing Yao Cunhui, Mingxia was not so polite, so she immediately thanked her and accepted it.

"Do you regret it?" Yao Cunhui asked her abruptly.

Do you regret it?Mingxia froze slightly, and quickly said: "No regrets, maidservant, there is no way out of regret. Even if you choose again, maidservant will still choose this way."

The expression in Yao Cunhui's eyes was a bit complicated, and he felt a little depressed for a while, and said softly: "I heard that the third sister is hard for you today?"

Things move so fast!Mingxia smiled wryly, thinking about it, now that she is the focus of the whole family, what happened in the morning was so big, and Yao Cunmei is not a calm temper, I am afraid that she would like to spread it to everyone in the family, how can anyone not know?

"Miss San hates maids and concubines, that's human nature." Mingxia's tone was flat, but her heart suddenly shrank.

"I hope you really think so," Yao Cunhui said slowly, "Sometimes, it is not so easy to recognize and keep one's duty."

Mingxia's body trembled violently, her heart was shaken, she bowed her head to Yao Cunhui and said, "Concubine, concubine, remember this concubine! Concubine, please remember Second Young Lady's teaching!"

"Okay, you go! Calm down, Dad is not a fool, and he won't treat you badly."

"Yes, Second Miss!" Mingxia saluted, turned around and left slowly.

Mingxia was secretly afraid, she was humiliated by Yao Cunmei today, how could she not complain or be angry?Subconsciously, he thought, one day he will take revenge for this!Now after listening to Yao Cunhui's words, he suddenly came to his senses.

revenge?It's just a leisurely moment, why bother to think about it?How could it be that easy to touch the daughter of the head of the house with a aunt who is as rootless as a duckweed?If it is exposed, I don't even know how to die!
The third lady is the wife's daughter, and also the master's flesh and blood, no matter what the master does, he will not destroy his flesh and blood for himself!If I really want to dig into the horns and plan and plan all day long, I am afraid that my whole life will be ruined by it!At that time, the deeper and deeper I am, I am afraid I will not be able to turn back!

It is the best policy to stick to one's duty.

"Second Miss, if Fourth Aunt doesn't do anything, wouldn't Second Miss have wasted all her efforts?" Rong Ma was a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, shouldn't Second Miss take this opportunity to provoke Fourth Aunt to make trouble with Mrs. Ma and Third Miss?Why instead help the third lady to speak and beat the fourth aunt.

Sighing, she felt more and more incomprehensible and incomprehensible to this master who grew up on her own milk!

"Mother Rong, don't worry," Yao Cunhui sighed softly, and said leisurely, "I'm just reminding her not to be distracted by trivial matters. Do you think Mrs. Ma is stupid? I'm afraid Si Yiniang will make trouble! Si Yiniang will make trouble, She is the only one who can take advantage of it! As long as Fourth Auntie lives in peace, it will be more interesting if she is full of hatred but can't find a chance to speak out!"

"But," Rong Ma said with a frown, "If Fourth Aunt is too weak, Madam Ma will deal with her anyway?"

"She's not a weak person, otherwise she wouldn't ask me to help buy that kind of medicine!" Yao Cunhui said with a smile: "There is absolutely no problem with her ability to protect herself, so you can rest assured!"

Mama Rong was startled, and sighed with a smile: "It seems that Mama Rong is really old and useless! Her brain is not working well either! Speaking of which, Mrs. Ma specially asked someone to clean up the Liuhua Mountain House for Fourth Aunt to live in. , and smiled and told everyone that she hoped that she would spread the branches and leaves for the master as soon as possible, and at the same time asked someone to bring her a soup, really—"
