Glory all the way

Chapter 43
"Mother, do you think that dead girl can be obedient?"

In the Qiuran Pavilion, Bai Yingyun asked while peeling a tangerine in her hand.

The second lady curled her lips and said: "If she dares to coax me, I can't cure her? Hmph, now, she hasn't lived in Cheng Huan Residence, and even if she does, I think it's easy to deal with her."

Seeing that her mother was so determined, Bai Yingluo handed the peeled orange to her hand, and said with a smile: "Mother, when the time comes, let's move into Chenghuan Residence and give me the room near the main house. Okay? I want to be closer to mother, so that I can come to mother to accompany me all the time, and mother will not be bored."

Having seen through Bai Yingyun's small thoughts long ago, the second lady stretched out her finger and gouged out her finger and said angrily, "What's your plan, don't think that mother doesn't know. That room faces the sun and is much more spacious than the others. Yours There will be room for those many boxes and cages.”

"mother……"

Twisting her body, Bai Yingyun acted coquettishly shyly.

The second lady took her into her arms and stuffed a few pieces of oranges into her mouth, "After your second sister got married, you are the only little padded jacket in front of my mother. I don't favor you more, but I still prefer you." Liu girl? Don't worry, as long as our second room can move into Cheng Huanju, the place will be much more spacious, you can live wherever you want, you can choose."

When her mother said this, Bai Yingyun was immediately overjoyed, but she thought in her heart that after leaving Qiu Ranxuan, she would go to the Yi'an Pavilion to give Bai Yingluo a warning, so that she wouldn't behave in the same way as others. Let my wish to change to a bigger house come to nothing.

On the other side, Bai Yingluo went straight back to her own room, thinking over and over again in her heart, how could the next thing to do be less obvious and less obvious.

"Miss, there must be nothing good to see you over there, right?"

Seeing Liuying came back with a box, saying that Bai Yingluo had gone to Qiuranxuan, Liusu knew there must be something in it. Seeing Bai Yingluo enter the door, Liusu greeted her with concern.

Nodding her head, Bai Yingluo told the three of them about the good plan that the second master and the second wife had planned.

Chen Xiang complained with some righteous indignation: "You are still Miss's elder, she doesn't look like an elder at all, if you think about it like this, it's fine if you don't fight for it in an upright manner, and it's really abominable to plot against Miss."

"Yes, miss, what are you going to do? Are you really going to tell the old man? After all, the old man let go and plans to let you move into Chenghuanju, but the second room can't take advantage of it."

Liusu took the words with deep confidence and responded.

"Of course I have to tell my grandfather, otherwise, second uncle and second aunt won't eat me?"

She pursed her lips and smiled, seeing Liusu and Liuying's expressions of disapproval, on the other side, Chen Xiang had already lowered her head to think of a way, and a knowing smile appeared on Bai Yingluo's face.

"Miss, you already have a plan, don't you?"

Seeing that Bai Yingluo was not in a hurry, Chen Xiang asked expectantly.

Bai Yingluo nodded, waved to the three of them, and spoke in a low voice. After a while, Chen Xiang and the three of them showed surprise on their faces.

The four masters and servants were chattering over the steps to proceed. Just after the discussion was completed, a little maid outside announced that Miss Fifth had arrived, and a relaxed smile broke out on Bai Yingluo's face.

Chongliu Ying blinked her eyes, and Bai Yingluo stood up to greet her.

"Ma'am, it's not good, it's not good."

It was noon, and as soon as she entered the Chenxi Pavilion in the west wing, the fourth lady was sitting in front of the dressing table and asked the maid to try on her a new hairpin when she heard the bluffs from the companion Liu San's family coming from the yard. the sound of.

The fourth lady waved her hand to signal the servant girl to take off the hairpin and put it back into the dowry box, then turned around and looked at the middle-aged woman who had just stepped into the door and said angrily, "I'm the mother of two children. No matter how you do things, it's still so bad." Steady? The sky is falling, it’s not going to happen, it’s all the way.”

Liu San's family slapped their thighs, walked up to the Fourth Madam and shouted: "Ma'am, it's thanks to the maidservant who went in to poke her ears when she went to the kitchen, otherwise, you and the Fourth Master would be put together by the second room without knowing it." Woolen cloth."

"what happened?"

As it was related to the second room, the fourth wife should have thought about Cheng Huanju.

"The second master and the second wife took care of the sixth lady, and now they forcefully ask the sixth miss to go to the old master and the old lady, saying that she doesn't want to be separated from the second bedroom, and that she is willing to move into Chenghuan residence with the second bedroom. Please old master and old lady agree to her for the sake of her sincere heart."

Speaking quickly, Liu San's family said unwillingly: "Ma'am, tell me, if the old master and the old lady really agree, you and the fourth master will suffer the most in the whole family, and the servants will take care of you." I feel wronged."

"Is this news true? Now is an extraordinary opportunity. Since the second room has such a heart, it must act in secret. If everyone knows about the trouble, the old master and the old lady will feel that everyone in the second room is in the heart." insufficient."

The fourth lady calmed down and thought for a while, then looked at Liu San's family hesitantly and asked.

Liu San's family nodded repeatedly and said: "The slaves heard it from the kitchen. I heard that it came from the Yunshui Pavilion. In the afternoon, the maids in the Yunshui Pavilion spread out all the mattresses and leathers in the cage of Fifth Miss. When they came out to dry, the maids chatted, and Aunt Wu who passed by the door listened to her ears. It turned out that the fifth lady had ordered the maids to start preparing the cages. Once the old master and the old lady agreed, the second room would move immediately. Go into Chenghuan's residence."

"hateful……"

Liu Mei stood upside down, and the fourth lady scolded angrily: "The second room has a good plan, but I just won't let them get what they want. I thought it would be good if they moved into Cheng Huanju in a friendly manner. .Now, they are playing tricks behind their backs. Okay, okay, then let's fight. Sell the children to buy a basket, and I will argue if I don't steam the buns."

After finishing speaking, the fourth lady got up and looked at the bronze mirror, and seeing that there was nothing wrong with her body, she twisted her body and went to Qing'an Hall.

As soon as she entered the door of Qing'an Hall, the fourth lady wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and the circles of her eyes suddenly turned red.

"Old man, old lady, your two elders have to be the masters of our fourth house..."

Shouting loudly, the fourth lady entered the room while the servant girl was dumbfounded, and fell to her knees on the ground with a plop, which surprised the old master Bai and the old lady Bai who were talking.

"The sky is bright and bright, can the sky collapse? Get up and talk, why are you howling?"

Although Old Master Bai was a literati, he was extremely decisive and forthright in dealing with people on weekdays, and he was the most shameful to see people cry. Therefore, seeing the appearance of his fourth daughter-in-law, Old Master Bai couldn't help but frowned.

Pretending to stand up cautiously, the Fourth Madam said what she had heard from Liu San's family, but it changed a little bit, and it became known to everyone in the house, only Qing'an Hall did not hear it. That's all.

The implication is that the first room also knows about it, but because of the second room's face, he dare not say it in front of the old master Bai and the old lady Bai.

"Old man, old lady, Sister Luo is a lovely child. Does anyone in this house know that? If the daughter-in-law had been there back then, the daughter-in-law would have been obliged to bring Sister Luo here to take care of her, which is better than what she has suffered all these years." Those grievances that have nowhere to complain. But...But the year sister Luo was born, the daughter-in-law hadn't married into the Hou's mansion yet, and the daughter-in-law wanted to contribute, but she couldn't."

Wiping her tears with a handkerchief, the fourth lady wept and said: "On weekdays, my daughter-in-law often misses Sister Luo, but whenever Sister Hui has something good, my daughter-in-law will send a maid to send it to her, The daughter-in-law will never forget her even if her mother's family sent a few baskets of fruit. The old man, the old lady, and the daughter-in-law have that kind of heart, but why should the second wife take it for granted that she has raised Sister Luo for more than ten years now? Are you going to live in Cheng Huan Residence?"

For a long time, neither the old master Bai nor the old lady Bai answered.

The fourth lady raised her eyes and saw a slight sullen expression on the faces of the two old men. She didn't know whether the anger was aimed at the second room or herself. The fourth lady sniffed and added: "Old man, old lady, on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival After you spoke, the daughter-in-law and the fourth master stopped thinking about it when they went back. At that time, the fourth master told the concubine that he knew that he should have given up on moving into Chenghuanju that day. In the past, brother and sister-in-law are the most important. Even if your two elders tell them to move in, the fourth master and concubine will never have a word of complaint, but they are using Sister Luo's excuse. It's very pitiful for Xiao to lose her parents. Whether it's the second wife or the fourth wife, shouldn't it be right to raise and take care of her? How can you use this as a bargaining chip for your own welfare?"

After finishing speaking, the fourth lady stopped talking, just sat in the armchair and sobbed silently, occasionally wiping the tears on her face with a handkerchief.

"You go back, I have my own conclusions on this matter. Again, the second and fourth rooms have fleshy palms and backs. Although people's hearts are originally biased, I will treat you two rooms absolutely impartially." .”

With a deep sigh, Old Master Bai waved at the Fourth Madam.

Knowing that the effect she wanted had been achieved, the Fourth Madam hurriedly got up and saluted Old Master Bai and Old Madam Bai, and exited the main room.

During dinner time, the whole family gathered in Qing'an Hall.

During the meal, there was an awkward silence in the room. The second master and the second lady, who had already known that the fourth lady had come to make trouble, both had embarrassing expressions on their faces, and the second lady looked at the fourth lady as if she wanted to swallow her up. fiercely.

But Bai Yingluo pretended not to know.

When having tea after dinner, Bai Yingluo suggested cautiously that moving into Chenghuan Residence by herself, fearing that she still could not achieve the effect that the Taoist priest said, the second room had raised her for 12 years, so they should move into Chenghuan Residence together.

Old Master Bai immediately turned green.

He raised his eyes and glared at the second master and the second wife, and the old master Bai said in a deep voice: "I said before, Chenghuanju is a courtyard of the third bedroom. As long as I stay here for a day, none of you will think about Chenghuanju. Tomorrow So I arranged for someone to move the house for Sister Luo, and there are only a few things in the Yi'an Pavilion, if they are not cleaned up before lunch, those servants who are not good at hands and feet will be kicked out."

The last sentence, Bai Lao Hou Ye said to Xue Shi, who is in charge of the family.

Xue Shi nodded hurriedly.

On the side, the faces of the second master and the second lady were ashen.
