Value peace

Chapter 181 Same name but different reality ([-])

Fang Shaoqin took the medicine cup and sat in Gu Xiyan's seat to feed Mrs. Xu the medicine.

Madam Xu finished her drink in a few sips, and sent out everyone around her.

"Shaoqin, I discussed it with your second uncle yesterday. I won't recover for a while. During this time, you will come in and help me manage the housekeeper. What do you want?"

Fang Shaoqin couldn't help being furious.

I heard from my mother that in those days, Mrs. Xu also lived in the famous Shengjing Hairpin House for her cleverness.Could it be that after staying in Yandi for a long time, he lost even a few spiritual energy!

Ever since she got married, Mrs. Xu has been using herself to suppress Mrs. Jingsui.Those who knew it meant that Mrs. Xu wanted to flatter him; those who didn't know thought that he was frivolous, relying on the fact that he came from Xizhao, so he looked clean and ignored his elders... Now There are a lot of messes in Peanut Alley, the grandmother doesn't help me sort it out, but also calls her into Yan Guogong's mansion to take care of the housework?The serious daughter-in-law doesn't care about things, but the nephew's daughter-in-law is in charge. Does Mrs. Xu think that the family is still in chaos?Or did he not treat himself as a family at all and prepare to use himself as a gunman...

Fang Shaoqin is not a reckless person either. Although his heart was on fire, he still had a gentle smile on his face, and said softly: "Grandmother, there are you and aunt in this family, so it's my turn to be in charge! Besides, Yuguan's Auntie Wei is still ill, and there are a lot of chores at home, and I really can't keep up with it!"

Mrs. Xu was taken aback when she heard that, and said, "That Wei Shiying, is he still sick? Didn't he say that he has recovered a long time ago?"

The corners of Fang Shaoqin's eyes were slightly wet, and he said: "For some reason, since my grandson's wife came in, I haven't had a good time. We went back yesterday and said that we ate something unclean, vomiting and diarrhea, and we asked a doctor and decoction , Yuguan was tortured for most of the night, and he didn't lie down until this morning when I came..."

Mrs. Xu's benevolent face showed a ruthless look.

Fang Shaoqin felt cold when he saw it.

She couldn't help feeling a little regretful about what she said just now.

"Grandmother, it's not that Shaoqin is ignorant and doesn't consider your difficulties. It's just that family matters... I can't let go!" Fang Shaoqin lowered his head slightly, "When the second uncle leaves, the matter of Yuguan I'm busy again, I also have to serve him by his side from time to time..."

Fang Shaoqin's words poured cold water on Mrs. Xu's head.

Yes, now the heir is the big one, without the heir, everything is empty talk!
She quickly took Fang Shaoqin's hand: "Good boy, grandma is old and confused, don't blame grandma."

When Fang Shaoqin heard this, he hurriedly stood up, stood by the side of the kang and said, "Grandma's words really scare Shaoqin!"

Mrs. Xu looked at Fang Shaoqin's crow's black hair, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she became.With a smile on her face, she patted the edge of the Kang: "Sit down, sit down, here with grandma, there are no outsiders, so don't be so cautious."

Only then did Fang Shaoqin sit down.

Mrs. Xu quietly asked Fang Shaoqin: "Yuguan, have you ever stayed in that Wei's room?"

Fang Shaoqin turned pale, hesitated for a moment, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "No, no!"

Mrs. Xu's eyes sank, but she continued to ask, she patted Fang Shaoqin's hand on the kang and smiled, "That's good, that's good."

Fang Shaoqin quickly changed the subject: "Grandmother, since you feel that it is difficult, why don't you leave the family affairs to your aunt! You can also enjoy a few years of happiness."

Mrs. Xu smiled coldly in her heart.

That Qi Hao has been playing bad games since he was a child, and he was so sleepy in the morning, he always spent three days fishing and two days drying the net.If Gu Xiyan is allowed to be in charge, who will remember that there is a Mrs. Xu in Yan Guogong's mansion...

But there is no need for Fang Shaoqin to say these words now.

She just smiled and said: "I mentioned it yesterday too, your aunt dare not take over!"

Fang Shaoqin was slightly taken aback.

Although she doesn't live in the mansion, she pays close attention to the movement in the mansion.

As soon as Gu Xiyan moved into the troupe, she promulgated two rules. These two rules seem simple, but they actually have profound meaning.Firstly, the maidservants living in Liyuan and the nuns living in Shangzhengju were virtually divided into two factions, forming a situation of opposing and monitoring each other; It effectively prevented the dowry person from being in close contact with the original servants of the Qi Mansion and exchanging information.

From now on, this method is still effective.

So far, she has not heard any other news about Liyuan except that a maid was punished for violating the ban.

Such a woman, in the eyes of Mrs. Xu, has become "dare not to take over".

Fang Shaoqin looked at Mrs. Xu, who was smiling but not smiling, and felt that the room was terribly cold, cold to the bone.

* * * * * *
When Gu Xiyan and Nanny Yi turned back, they caught up with a few nuns clearing the tables. Mrs. Xu sat cross-legged on the kang, smiling at Fang Shaoqin, who was standing on the edge of the kang, with indescribable joy.

It can be seen that Mrs. Xu is really satisfied with this granddaughter-in-law.

Gu Xiyan bowed her knees to salute Mrs. Xu, and said with a smile, "The daughter-in-law picked two fresh ginseng fruits, eight taels of bird's nest, eight taels of hemp, eight taels of donkey-hide gelatin, a catty of lotus seeds, a catty of longan, a catty of red dates, A catty of lilies, a total of eight pieces, you can see that it is still safe."

Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment, and her gaze fell on Nanny Yi: "Young Madam picked this, or you picked it."

Nanny Yi replied: "Auntie Duan picked it."

"En." Mrs. Xu nodded slightly, and said to Gu Xiyan with a smile, "You have to remember, these things are the most appropriate to visit a sick woman, and there will be no mistakes in any case."

Gu Xiyan respectfully replied yes.

Mrs. Xu told Nanny Yi: "Speak to the people in the outer courtyard and ask Duanniang to take the doctor to the Gong residence."

Nanny Yi responded and left.

Mrs. Xu sighed to Gu Xiyan: "You are so good, even if you wave your hands, you are not willing to help me, and you still want me, who is half buried in the ground, to worry about it."

Gu Xiyan didn't expect that Fang Shaoqin would also refuse. She was very surprised, but her face showed a surprised expression, and said: "Why is this? Shaoqin was born in a noble family and has a lot of experience. There is no better candidate..."

Fang Shaoqin hurriedly said to Gu Xiyan respectfully: "Auntie, don't say that. With the elders here, there is no place for us juniors to talk."

What Gu Xiyan wanted to say, Madam Xu had already sighed, and said: "You don't have to fight anymore. If that's the case, it's better for me, an old man, to be in charge of the house!"

Fang Shaoqin and Gu Xiyan hurriedly bowed their knees to salute, saying "don't dare".

Or she was really old, and after a few more words with Gu and Fang, her face showed tiredness.

Gu Xiyan helped Mrs. Xu pull out the pillow and waited for her to rest. After Mrs. Xu let out a slight snoring sound, the two of them tiptoed out.

The weather that day was a bit gloomy, with large swaths of dark clouds gathering above the head, and the air was extremely humid, but there was no rain, which made people feel stuffy.

Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "I don't know if it will rain or not?"

Fang Shaoqin stopped for a moment, looked at the sky, and said, "The land of Yan is to the north, and this is the season when the wheat blossoms and catkins fly. I hope the rain won't last too long."

Gu Xiyan was stunned.

Seeing the surprise on Gu Xiyan's face, Fang Shaoqin said with some embarrassment: "I grew up in Liangdi, and I have two elder brothers, who have followed behind my elder brothers since childhood, like wild boys. Rare, you have to ask about everything you don’t know...I’m making you laugh.”

"No, no, no." Gu Xiyan was a little ashamed, "I am a person who doesn't distinguish between grains, and I know these things no better than you!"

Fang Shaoqin smiled.

Gu Xiyan stared blankly again.

At this time, Fang Shaoqin was confident and beautiful, sweeping away the coldness just now, with a fresh smile, like a touch of green on a tree branch, clean and beautiful.

This is the real Fang Shaoqin!
Gu Xiyan felt a little sad in her heart.

As soon as the two of them walked out of Xianji courtyard, there was a burst of flying sand and rocks, and the rain fell down with a patter.

Gu Xiyan and Fang Shaoqin couldn't escape in time, and both got a few drops of rain.

A large group of people hastily turned back to the corridor, and the rain was pouring down. In an instant, the entire Qi Mansion was shrouded in rain curtains.

The girls were all sharp-eyed, and hurriedly found oilcloth umbrellas.

There was no preparation before, and the atmosphere became a bit awkward because there were few umbrellas and many people.

If it was all given to Gu Xiyan, then someone on Fang Shaoqin's side would be drenched in the rain; if it was all given to Fang Shaoqin, then someone on Gu Xiyan's side would be drenched in the rain.

For a while, the umbrella became a hot potato!

Gu Xiyan saw this scene in her eyes, and felt very embarrassed.

At this time, it is absolutely impossible to give in and forbear.

I am a bride who has just entered the door, and I have taken the status of an elder, and I am showing weakness in front of Mrs. Xu, because of my status, if I show weakness in front of Fang Shaoqin again, then these women and servants who are used to changing the wind will probably look down upon themselves Well, it will not be so easy to clean up the rivers and mountains when the time comes.But if you get tough at this time, this is Xianjiyuan, and you are not sure that you will win.

Fang Shaoqin was also in a dilemma.

It is natural and reasonable for Mrs. Xu to suppress Gu Xiyan everywhere, but if she also dances with the wind, she has no position and violates women's morality.Marriage from thousands of miles away is under the circumstances that Xizhao has suffered a dark loss. This is not so much a marriage, but an attitude.But what I have to do now is to integrate into the life of the Qi Mansion and gain a foothold in the Qi Mansion.But all of this would be impossible without Qi Hao's approval.It is an extremely stupid idea to compete with Gu's for an umbrella... This umbrella must be given up.

"Hey! It's raining so hard!" Gu Xiyan looked at Fang Shaoqin with a smile on her face, "It's raining, it's a day to stay away. Shaoqin, why don't you sit in my room and go back when the rain subsides?" ,what do you think."

With Mrs. Xu's love for Fang Shaoqin, Fang Shaoqin should have had breakfast.But this is the only excuse Gu Xiyan can find.

Fang Shaoqin was slightly taken aback, but he let out a long breath in his heart.

This is the best solution.

It is reasonable for me to go to Liyuan to play as a junior, and it allows people on both sides to make do with umbrellas.

She looked at Gu Xiyan with a smile on her face: "It's because my aunt knows that she loves me. Just now I served my grandma for dinner, and I just swallowed my mouth. I just took this opportunity to go to my aunt's house to ask for breakfast!"

When the two looked back, they both saw clearly in each other's eyes.

After a short silence, they all showed a relieved smile.

(Sisters, pink tickets! ^_^ )
