Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 74 Injustice
At the beginning of noon, Yiqing finished inspecting the back house affairs, came to Anhetang, and accompanied Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Zheng together with Fang Zheng's mother and daughter and Wen Hui, chatting and joking. Arrived, coming in from the second door.

Mrs. Fang Zheng hurriedly got up to go out to greet her. Yiqing wanted to go with her, but she stopped her: "It's a hot day today, don't bask in the sun, you sit and talk with the old lady. Your cousin Baochan just go there!"

After saying that and pulled Baochan, the mother and daughter quickly turned out of the screen of Jinxiu Hall and went out with a group of servants and maidservants.

Mrs. Zheng said: "Qing'er, let your eldest aunt go. Lanti has been close to her eldest aunt since she was a child. In the past, when she came back, her eldest aunt would go out to meet her!"

Mrs. Zheng nodded, but said: "This time it's my younger sister, so let your eldest aunt go. Next time there are other guests, you still have to go out to greet them! Your mother and I are getting older, and you are the owner of this house." The young lady here is the mistress, these are all your business!"

Yiqing sat back beside the old lady, and said coquettishly: "The eldest aunt is here, can I be lazy from time to time?"

Mrs. Zheng laughed, and said angrily: "When I said something in the morning, I thought it was a sensible and self-disciplined person. This is not relying on my eldest aunt! No matter how capable your eldest aunt is, she will also grow old, and she still has your treasure. Cousin Zhang has to worry, how can he take care of you for the rest of his life? You, no one can be relied on, you have to work hard on your own, your mother and I can rest assured, understand?"

After speaking, he turned to Mrs. Zheng: "This child, it seems that he can't be too pampered, he should be tempered more!"

Taking advantage of the communication between the two elders, Yiqing secretly thought about what the old lady said: Sure enough, people become mature when they get old. The literal meaning of what Mrs. Zheng said is very simple, but it seems to contain various meanings in it, which is so intriguing up!
In addition to Zheng Lanti's daughter Liu Jiahong, there are two beautiful young women behind her, watching them pull up all their hair, leaving no hair hanging around the ears and the back of the head, but the bun is not very dignified and rigorous, but rather charming and charming , we know that these two women should be concubines of Zheng Lanti's husband Liu Yubin.

Sure enough, after Zheng Lanti greeted Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Zheng, she pointed to the two women and said, "This is Xinna's aunt. She came from the country and has never seen the market. She took them out for a walk. Jiahong is also willing." Let them accompany you."

The two new concubines came up to kowtow, Mrs. Zheng asked Mama Lin to give them a gift each, and her own mother-in-law took them away to have refreshments elsewhere.

Mrs. Zheng didn't say anything, she pulled Jiahong to talk softly.

Yiqing thought to herself, this Zheng Lanti can take it easy, her husband has a new concubine, she just doesn't bother her, she can let the concubine follow her when she returns to her mother's house, she is quite magnanimous.

I heard Mrs. Zheng admonishing Zheng Lanti: "At least you are the mother of a two-year-old child. Your mother-in-law has trained you well. Finally, you have made some progress. You are no longer as noisy as you were when you first married. That's how it should be! Relax, be a dignified mistress, it's not easy for men outside, you should take care of the affairs of the house at home, the second room of the Liu family has only had one girl, Jiahong, for so many years, it's your fault, it should be Yu It is reasonable for Binduo to accept a few concubines!"

Zheng Lanti smiled and said yes, Yiqing stood behind the old lady and complained: "Old ancestor, can you stop torturing my audiovisual?"Fortunately, I am not your serious wife, or I will be tortured to death by you!
Standing beside Yiqing, Fang Baochan saw the fleeting sarcasm and disdain on Yiqing's face from the side. She changed her mind, walked up to the old lady and said, "Grandma's teaching, I also benefited from it!"

Mrs. Zheng patted her lightly: "Aren't you the same? Don't let me worry! Don't think that you are self-righteous because you gave birth to a son in your first child. The child is already three years old. If you don't conceive again, your in-laws will also blame you! A concubine can give birth to a concubine, after all, it is a concubine, so it is not as expensive as having a son and a daughter, if you are a grandma, what are you doing in your spare time?"

"Grandmother is right, don't be idle!"

Fang Baochan stretched out his hand to pull Yiqing over, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law has to have more children, one a year, even grandma can't hug her!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Zheng laughed so hard that the emeralds spewed out orbs on her head and the golden silk phoenix wings trembled. She held Yiqing's hand and said happily: "Girl Baochan can finally say something nice, I'm looking forward to it." What about this day! Thanks to her kindness, you will give birth to grandma as soon as possible, the more the better! Don't worry, grandma still has some strength, so she can hold them!"

Yiqing smiled helplessly, pretended to be shy and lowered her head to glance at Fang Baochan, thinking that you are holding on before eating?Can you come up with some other ideas to please the elderly?
But she didn't know that Fang Baochan had her own reasons for doing this: first, she made the old lady too happy, but Yiqing didn't move at all. Think how disappointed the old lady must be!

Seeing that at that time, will the old lady dote on Yiqing so much, and how big is Yiqing's heart to marry a concubine for Cousin Yan!

Mother Lin watched the lunch set in the flower hall, and came to ask the old lady to lead everyone to the table.

In the past, when I accompanied the elders to eat, Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Fang Zheng always sat on the left and right of the old lady, and Yiqing sat next to Mrs. Zheng. Now seeing Zheng Lanti coming back to her mother's house, she thinks that her daughter will always be clingy Mother, take the initiative to step back and give up your seat to Zheng Lanti, and Mrs. Zheng whispered softly: "You don't have to give up, just sit here!"

Yiqing hesitated for a moment, then sat down obediently.

But Zheng Lanti didn't come to Mrs. Zheng's side, Fang Zheng gave way over there, and Zheng Lanti sat next to the old lady.

The two-year-old Jiahong was fed by her own nanny. The old lady said that she was not too old to move, and she didn’t want the juniors to add vegetables and soup. In fact, she was used to relying on Mama Lin. Mama Lin followed her for decades. Knowing her taste preferences and eating habits, Mama Lin is always watching over her every meal.

Several people sat around the table, neither eating nor sleeping, only the sound of spoons being lightly placed on the plate was heard at the dinner table, and it took more than half an hour to have a quiet meal.

After the meal, they went back to the hall to drink tea. Perhaps they were full of energy before the meal. Zheng Lanti obviously talked more than before the meal, and Fang Zheng, Fang Baochan, and Wang Wenhui joined in and echoed. lively.

After all, she is getting old and the old lady can't sit for a long time. Mrs. Xu has developed the same habit with the old lady for a long time. She always takes a nap after lunch. Helping the old lady to rest, Mrs. Zheng sent the old lady in, and went back to Qingxinyuan to rest when she came out. Smiling and agreeing, she and Yiqing sent Mrs. Zheng out of the hall. Mrs. Zheng taught Zheng Lanti to go back to look after the child, but motioned Yiqing to follow a few steps, and said:
"The reward from the palace that you got the day before yesterday, the ice silk silk satin, the old lady has other uses, so I won't give it to Lan'er. Yesterday, the steward of the front yard sent in the Ling Ling that will be used this summer. I asked the steward Mom has entered the warehouse, there are 66 horses in total, you have to work hard, and go to open the warehouse, pick two horses of the right color for Lan'er to take back to make summer clothes, for her parents-in-law, you can ask the mother in charge, according to the usual quota, see Just take some supplements, dry goods, sweets and snacks and let them take them back!"

Yiqing responded, seeing the maidservant beside Mrs. Zheng coming forward to help her walk left and right, she paused, turned towards Mrs. Zheng's back and blessed her body, then got up and watched her go away before turning back to the hall.

Fang Zhengshi, Fang Baochan and Wang Wenhui sat with Zheng Lanti. They were in good spirits and chatted loudly. Seeing Yiqing turning around, Fang Zhengshi hurriedly said to Baochan:
"Hurry up and give up a seat for your sister-in-law!"

Fang Baochan made a gesture to stand up, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, please sit down, I thought you were going back to take a nap!"

Yiqing smiled and said, "How can it be? Auntie came back after a long time, and everyone talking together is so lively!"

Zheng Lanti covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief and yawned: "It's okay, everyone in our family is used to taking a nap. If you are sleepy, go and take a rest. I will take my daughter to lie down later!"

Yiqing knew that Fang Zheng had already prepared for Zheng Lanti, but she pretended to be good: "Then I'll find someone to tidy up my aunt's room first, even though it's cleaned every day, it will still smell a little damp if you don't live for a long time. The curtains and mattresses should be replaced with new ones!"

Fang Zhengshi said: "Don't be busy, I have already taken care of all these!"

Yiqing smiled: "My aunt is really thoughtful and meticulous!"

Fang Baochan said: "My mother was born and raised in the Hou's Mansion, how is she not familiar with this mansion? The arrangements are thoughtful and complete. Over the years, the old lady has entrusted my mother to do things without any mistakes. Maybe there is a small omission...you have a lot to learn!"

Wang Wenhui added in a cold tone: "Yes, don't think that with a few bunches of keys and a few warehouse doors, you can manage things!"

After hearing what the two sisters said, Yiqing naturally understood that they were arguing for Mrs. Fang Zheng!
For many years, Mrs. Fang Zheng and Mrs. Zheng have been in charge of the backyard affairs of the Rongping Hou Mansion equally. The chaos on the books is not normal. handle.It is said that Mrs. Zheng is soft and doesn't care about everything. She knows how to arrest her new daughter-in-law Xia Yiqing to read the account books and manage affairs. What's the use when it's over?

But she couldn't just let things go, and Zheng Jingyan tempted her with a lot of money. The 4000 taels were both a "salary" and a reward. She accepted it without hesitation, and made up her mind to take it. Money is loyal to personnel, and she has made up her mind about this "new family member"!
Even if you offend Fang Zheng, you won't be relatives with her for the rest of your life anyway!

Yiqing thought in her heart that they would come secretly, but since they came in the open, that's fine, let's talk it over, if both parties are more polite, they can still discuss things in the future, and it's not impossible to make things easier for each other.
