Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 176 Vague
Mrs. Fang Zheng took a step forward, and said to Mrs. Zheng: "Although it is a rumor, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, how could she explain it in such detail? Mrs. Liang, who cuts flowers and branches in the garden, has been in the mansion for three generations. The son lives in the back street of Hou's Mansion, and the servant next door to her is surnamed Lin, and has a son who follows Du Zhong! The Lin family boy said himself: He followed Du Zhong to the big house on Guangyi Street several times, and every time he went It's not empty-handed! They are all pulling things in there with a big cart. They are all good things, which are comparable to the things in the house where the masters of our house live! The Lin family boy is just a follower of Eucommia Er, Du Zhong has been with Yan Er since he was a child, and Yan Er will send Du Zhong to do whatever Yan Er wants to do, and mother can just ask Du Zhong, and she will be sure!"

Mrs. Zheng frowned: "I mean, I have always wanted to ask something in my mind these two days but I couldn't get it out. It turned out to be Du Zhong! Yan'er went to the south with King Qin this time, but he didn't bring Du Zhong with him? What's the matter? thing?"

Fang Zheng said: "Who knows? Mother caught Du Zhong and asked her to understand? He was playing tricks and didn't tell the truth, so he just divided up his family and sold them. Let's see if he dares to sell them." Don't you dare?"

Mrs. Zheng gave her eldest daughter a disapproving look: "Don't always scare him with such words, it's enough to do some things once. Last time you frightened him according to your wishes, and you can't do this again!"

Wang Zhengshi sneered: "Mother, you are just a slave. You beat him and scold him all the time. Are you afraid of frightening him?"

Mrs. Zheng said: "Du Zhong is not an ordinary slave, he belongs to Yan'er! When Yan'er was young, he chose a servant, and no one wanted it. He only let Du Zhong follow. After so many years, how could Yan'er let people move him? I didn't see that the last time I just frightened Du Zhong, Yan'er came to me the next day and said many good things to me, all begging for Du Zhong!"

Fang Zheng said: "You can't pamper his servants just because you love your grandson, can you? Mother, that Eucommia closed his mouth tightly when he entered the inner courtyard. Whenever I asked him, he always said Don't tell me, I think he is a dog who is arrogant and confident!"

After hearing this, Wang Zhengshi said angrily: "If such a slave hits my hand, it's fine if you don't grab him and knock out his two front teeth! Even if Yan'er protects him, I'm still Yan'er's elder! What can I do?"

Fang Zheng looked at the old lady with a frown, and answered her sister's words: "Naturally, there is nothing to be done. A family relationship can make a servant go bad? My mother is Yan'er's grandmother, and she is more qualified to discipline that arrogant one." Slave, he helped Yan'er do unreasonable things outside, and he dared to hide it from the mistress at home so tightly! His mother had warned him last time, and he still didn't know how to repent, so he should be punished this time, so that he will Just be obedient! Mother, I'll send someone to send the Eucommia over here, and you will carefully interrogate him?"

The old lady Zheng pondered, and slowly shook her head: "It is necessary to ask, but not now! Yan'er is the Marquis of Rongping, even if he really gave the Yue family a mansion worth tens of thousands of taels, it was his decision. , we women in the inner house can’t say anything about him! Even if you give it away, can you still get it back? Now that Xia’s house is moving, and a big wedding is about to be held, but we find out the matter at this moment and question Du Zhong, which will also embarrass Yiqing. Once she goes to talk to her natal family again, wouldn't it spoil the enthusiasm of the Xia family and hurt the peace of the two families!"

Mrs. Wang Zheng didn't care: "What's the point of hurting our peace? We're not in the right household. We're the only ones who beg our family. Our family won't ask them for anything!"

Mrs. Zheng said angrily: "You are already in-laws, so you are not allowed to say such things! The emperor still has relatives in straw sandals, and our family is not allowed to have poor relatives? What's more, the master of the in-laws is now promoted to the sixth rank, and he is in the household department. The best vacancy has been made up, and the future will not be worrying! With the Pang Mansion ahead, the momentum of the Xia family is about to rise!"

"Hmph! Isn't that because of our family? Yan'er took the title and followed the King of Qin. He is the cousin of the King of Qin. He is a relative of the emperor. Who would not sell him a little bit of favor? Yan'er again The Xia family can get such a good official position by spending money on one or two. Otherwise, it would not be so easy for him to gain a foothold in the capital as a seventh-rank provincial official! He was burnt to high incense in his previous life!"

Wang Zhengshi was upset and said sourly: "Yan'er is the same. He was so careful in planning for his father-in-law. Last year, he was asked to plan for our master, but he could only move a place and be promoted to a higher official rank. Now That's the sixth grade... This is his dear uncle. The Xia who has only been his father-in-law for a few days, is he flattering him like this? Do you want to be so partial? Xia Yiqing still doesn't know if she can give birth to a son Well, don’t end up fetching water from the bamboo basket in vain, and waste all your energy and money!”

Mrs. Zheng was in a hurry to marry her grandson-in-law back, and she wanted to hold her little grandson wholeheartedly. She was most jealous of people saying that Xia Yiqing could not have children, so she immediately said with a dark face: "Don't talk nonsense! The master of the Xia family doesn't depend entirely on Yan'er, he is the son of the Pang family." How could Shilang Pang ignore his son-in-law? Besides, last year, Yan'er also asked Mr. Wang that if he was willing to work in the capital, he would have a good job, but he didn't come, he just wanted to stay in the capital. Who's to blame for that? ?”

Wang Zhengshi was silent, feeling uncomfortable like a cat scratching in her heart: her master refused to come to the capital to take a job, and told her that the two old people in the family were old, and the capital was three or two days away from the capital. Can't come back in time... Later, her servants overheard the gossip of the concubines behind their backs, and she realized that the reason why the master refused to be promoted to the capital was to obey the wishes of the concubines—in the capital, several concubines could see him every day Accompany him, if he is transferred to the capital, I am afraid that my wife will find an excuse to stop them from accompanying him to the post, then the husband and wife will have to separate, and I will not see the master from time to time, how sad it is!
For the sake of several concubines, the master gave up the good position that the Hou Mansion had obtained for him, and was willing to stay with the concubines for a lifetime. This truth made Wang Zheng so angry that he almost vomited blood, and lay down on the bed for several times. sky.

Seeing that her sister had shut up, Fang Zheng asked persistently, "Mother, are you really going to ignore this matter? You must know that Yiqing is in charge of the bank of the Hou Mansion now! They are young and ignorant, if they... "

Mrs. Zheng waved her hand wearily, and said: "Ask is always necessary, but not now! The matter has been done, and the favor will be there. Don't embarrass others! Let's wait a while! After the wedding banquet, I will ask Du Zhong again, and I will also ask Yi Qing by the way... I have to talk to your sister-in-law first."

"Tell her what to do?"

"Huh? What's this talking about? Your sister-in-law gave birth to Yan'er, and she is the mistress of the house!"

"Her temper has been coaxed by Yiqing long ago, she must be covering Yiqing!"

"She loves her daughter-in-law, that's her business, don't talk too much! I know her, and it's about Yan'er and this family. She is unambiguous and knows how to measure!"
