Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 382 Hitting the Wall (1)
Hong Shi stood up with a half-smile, and said: "In that case, the daughter-in-law will not be here to obstruct your eyes, and the daughter-in-law will leave now."

Saying that, turn around and leave.

"Oh, by the way, my daughter-in-law hasn't been feeling well for the past few days, so she won't come to pay her respects to the old lady, and please don't blame the old lady."

After speaking, he left without hesitation.

"You...don't make any sense...who gave her the courage?" After Mrs. Hong left, Mrs. Wang was so angry that she patted the handle of the chair and cried, "Now, seeing that I'm old and useless, I don't want to use it." I put it in my eyes."

While crying, he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief.It made a group of people feel comforted.

After finally stopping, Tao Shi said: "Old lady, don't be as knowledgeable as her. She just saw Mrs. Chu's prosperity, so she wanted to go up to her and kneel and lick her, but she didn't even look at her. Can people look down on her? "

After finishing speaking, there was a contemptuous snort.

Huo Lingyun also said: "Yes, old lady, don't be as knowledgeable as her. If she wants to curry favor with that person, let her go. When she hits a wall, she will know that the old lady is fine."

Mrs. Wang Tai then stopped, sighed, and said: "What a crime! I think she was led to ruin by that little Su family."

Nanny Sun smiled and said at this time: "Old lady, let's stop talking about these unhappy things and talk about happy things! In half a month or so, it will be the day when Lord Hou is very happy. Haven't you already Have you been looking forward to it for a long time? It’s time to get ready.”

Mrs. Wang Tai's expression softened when she heard the words, and finally there was a smile on her face, "It's time to get ready."

Although at the beginning, she was not very satisfied with this marriage forced by the emperor, but the matter has come to this point, it is useless to say more, besides, she also knows that apart from Su Qingxue, there is no good choice.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even if Su Qingxue loses the title of county lord, she is still the first daughter of the British government. Not to mention, when she gets married, she will definitely bring a large dowry.Although their family is not greedy for these things, but these dowries are to be left to the descendants of the Huo family, how can she be unhappy?

Except Tao Shi's face was reluctant, the others also laughed when they heard the news, the Hou Mansion finally had a new mistress.

As for Huo Lingyun, her face turned pale, she lowered her head, and after a long while, she raised her head and laughed too.

"By the way, Aunt Wang should be released by taking advantage of the occasion of the wedding. I think she knew she was wrong, and she can't really be locked up for a lifetime." Mrs. Wang said again.

Everyone else laughed and said yes, but for this matter, it doesn't work if they say it, it depends on what Marquis Changwu means.

As for what Hong said, no one took it to heart, even Tao was just a little scared at the time, and quickly forgot it.

Who would have known that the next day, someone came to the palace and read out the queen's will.

Huo Tao, the one below and the one above, deliberately cursed Mrs. Chu, disrespected Mrs. Chu, and disrespected the empress. She slapped her face twenty times as a warning to everyone else. If there is another time, she will never be merciless.

Mrs. Wang, the Marquis of Changwu, is unfavorable in discipline, and even more guilty of negligence and connivance. She specially warns once, hoping to restrain everyone in the mansion more and not to cause more troubles.

The third wife, Tao Shi, and Mrs. Wang Tai were stunned for a moment.

The next moment, Mrs. Wang Tai blushed with embarrassment.

What a shame, what a shame.

She has been beautiful all her life, pampered and respected all her life, and has been respected all her life.Decades of face were lost all at once, and she didn't even leave a fig leaf for her. She felt ashamed, angry and hated, but there was nothing she could do. She almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. A few years older.

Dow slumped directly on the ground.

When she read out the decree, she originally wanted to avoid it, but the eunuch who delivered the decree deliberately let her stay. She thought it was a good thing and was still complacent. Dazed.

There was also a nanny who came to the palace to slap Tao Shi [-] times with a bamboo stick, and she didn't show any mercy.

Tao Shi's face, without accident, was beaten into a pig's head, his face was almost smashed, and a few of his teeth fell out. He might not be able to see anyone for a month or two.

Tao's experience made many noble ladies vigilant, and they no longer dare to talk about Mrs. Chu in private.

Just like they dare not talk about queens and concubines in private, these are taboos, even if they mention them, they have to say good things.No matter what is in your heart, respect should be on your lips.

Although the name of Empress Empress is used this time, I believe everyone knows who it is.

In fact, Mrs. Wang Tai and Tao Shi were aggrieved, so why didn't the empress feel aggrieved?

It's all right for His Majesty to vent his anger on Mrs. Chu, why did the bad guys let her do it?How does this make her happy?
However, she couldn't resist His Majesty's order, not only couldn't resist, but she had to accept it happily.

In the end, he had no choice but to knock down his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, and forced a smile on his face to make the decree.

He gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, but he couldn't send it to His Majesty, so he could only silently write another note to Su Wan in his heart.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, it had already entered the beginning of March.

After Shen Zheng was dismissed, Huo Yuan walked out of the Yamen of the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, but it was raining lightly outside.

The horse I used to ride was now replaced by a carriage.

Huo Yuan stopped in his footsteps, looking at the gloomy sky outside with no expression on his face.

In a few days, it will be the day when he will marry his wife again.

Just now, his colleagues and subordinates all congratulated him with smiles on their faces.But in his heart, there was still no joy.

In other words, he got married three times, except for the first time, which he expected and valued, the second time, and this time, he didn't feel much.

When Xiao Su married him, he didn't care at all. He didn't even use the three-day vacation given by the emperor. On the second day of marriage, he went to court as usual.

At that time, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but thinking about it now, it made his heart suddenly start to ache.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the sudden surge of emotion in his heart, stepped forward and got into the carriage.

When the carriage started to move, looking at the drizzle outside through the window, Huo Yuan's mind began to drift away again.

After that conversation with His Majesty, he originally felt that he had almost let go. She has her destination, and he will also have his own destination. From now on, it is like two roads that never intersect. Try your best not to think about her, not to pay attention to her news.

However, as the wedding day approached, he suddenly thought of Xiao Su's more and more frequently.
