The little girl of the landlord's house

Chapter 6

The old aunt and grandma took a look at her, and also hated iron for being weak, so she just said with a serious face: "Let's take a look again, but you have gone out now, what kind of good family can you find? If you go out with simple food and simple clothes, you are still It's better to stay at Xie's house and enjoy this ready-made happiness, at least she won't drive you away!"

The old aunt is getting old now, how can she understand the suffering of this aunt Fang, who has tasted the forbidden fruit, and at such an age, how can she keep it?Aunt Fang just said depressedly: "I'll admit it even if it's a bit bitter, it's better than spending my whole life here."

The old aunt shook her head, looked at her resentful face, and didn't want to say anything more to her, the two of them were about to go into the room, when the little maid came in and said: "Miss, Ziyan over there My sister is here, and she said she has something to tell my aunt!"

The old aunt's eyelids trembled, and she couldn't figure out what was going on for a while, but she was a little confused in her heart.Xie Yujiao used to be the most delicate girl. When Master Xie was alive, even I hadn't seen the jewel in the Xie family's palm much. I thought she was useless at first, but who knew that the little girl would leave the Xiulou He did a few powerful and decisive things, which made all the old people in the Xie family look at him with admiration.

But in the eyes of the old aunt and grandma, no matter how powerful Xie Yujiao is, there will be no big troubles. The girl will always marry when she grows up. In the future, when she comes out of the court, who will have the final say in the Xie family, I don't know yet.The old aunt is also very busy these days. Those who want to send their sons to Xie's family as heirs, seeing that Xu's side can't get through, naturally come to the old aunt for help.The old aunt also had some calculations in her heart, she had to find someone whose parents were weaker and easy to handle, so that she could have a say in the future, those who saw the money and tried desperately to get in would be dishonest in the future, so she would pay them all back. Did not answer.

"Go and let her in. I don't know if the girl has anything to do with me, an old woman." Mrs. Xu has been in poor health for the past two days, and she is too lazy to take care of family affairs, so the old aunt and grandma acted like a master. People can't get used to it, but there are many servants in the Xie family who came in through the relationship of the old aunt and grandma, so they are naturally happy, so they don't care much when they do things.

When Ziyan came in, she only blessed her old aunt and Aunt Fang, and straight to the point said Xie Yujiao's words verbatim.The old aunt heard it, but she didn't realize it for a while, but Aunt Fang asked in confusion, "What do you mean by letting the old aunt see what to do? Is the girl going to drive someone away for such a small matter?"

Seeing Aunt Fang like that, Ziyan felt disgusted at first. Speaking of which, Aunt Fang is the most annoying of the four aunts. Thanks to the support of the old aunt, she usually looks sideways towards the other three aunts. The eyes speak, even the wife is not as showy as she is.

Now the person who is going to be driven away is Aunt Fang's aunt, so she was naturally anxious first, so she just jumped out and asked.

Ziyan also came prepared, and at this time the old aunt and grandma hadn't spoken yet. Aunt Fang was not afraid, so she boldly said: "The servant is just a messenger, and other things are not clear. If the old aunt thinks that the slave is passing the message If you don't know, you can also send someone to ask our girl, but the girl is tired these days, I'm afraid she hasn't got up yet!"

After Ziyan finished speaking, she didn't give Aunt Fang and the old aunt a chance to speak, so she blessed her body, turned around and left.

The old aunt and grandma finally came to her senses at this moment. Mrs. Zhao is the sister of her natal sister-in-law, and she entered the Xie Mansion because of her relationship. Now that Xie Yujiao came to her directly, if she didn't deal with that person, it would be a bit unjustifiable. up.But if she followed her will and kicked Mrs. Zhao out, wouldn't she treat her as an old woman and be afraid of her little girl?

Thinking of this, the old aunt and grandma felt her chest tight and panicked. She just fiddled with the Buddhist beads in her hand and gasped for breath.

"Auntie, please don't throw my aunt out. Their family is very difficult, and their two sons are worthless. They all rely on her monthly income from Xie's house!" Aunt Fang hurriedly pleaded for Mrs. Zhao. , His eyebrows were all wrinkled into a lump.

The old aunt and grandma only became more angry when she heard this, and said coldly: "If you don't want to be kicked out, then you are still so lawless, do you really think there is no one in Xie's family?"

Aunt Fang couldn't open her mouth because of what the old aunt said, so she twisted her handkerchief and thought for a while, before she said: "Miss has a really bad temper these days, usually those women are on errands at night, don't Not to mention lighting up the lamp, it is possible for three or five people to get together to play cards, and the wife never said anything, but she asked Mama Zhang to give some advice in private, and she was like a big girl, she would be kicked out with a single mouth , it's clear that I didn't take you seriously."

The old aunt and grandma are just like the firecrackers in this matter.She thought she had stayed at Xie's house for so many years, and now that Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie had gone, even Mrs. Xie respected her a little, but Xie Yujiao's behavior clearly didn't take herself seriously at all. How can she swallow this breath.

Although Xu Shi and herself had some unhappiness in the past, the two of them thought they were good-looking on the scene, and outsiders couldn't see the clues. Now that Xie Yujiao is doing things, she doesn't give her any face at all?
The old aunt's face suddenly became ugly, and she remembered that she sent someone to ask questions yesterday. From the tone of that maid, the Xu family now has Xie Yujiao, and she is not as good as before, at least he still relies on her twice.

"Let's go, go find your wife, she is still the housekeeper now, so naturally the wife has the final say."

When the old aunt rushed to the main courtyard aggressively, Xie Yujiao was having breakfast with Mrs. Xu, and when she saw Ziyan flashing at the door, she knew that the matter was probably settled.Xie Yujiao wasn't sure if the old aunt would come. She didn't have any estimate of the ancient shrew's fighting power, but based on her own memories and her subconscious rejection of the old aunt, she knew that she must be a difficult person.

Mrs. Zhang told Mrs. Zhao's matter early in the morning. At first, Mrs. Xu felt that the matter was big or small, but now there are many things at home, and Xie Yujiao is relying on Xie Yujiao to handle everything. If she, the head of the family, doesn't help her, I'm afraid that there will be many things in the future that I will find her to come with. Even if my daughter is doing something wrong, she will stand by and shout for support.

Xie Yujiao ate a crystal siu mai, half a piece of duck oil biscuit, and a small bowl of white rice porridge, and she was just about to fill it up. Outside, Zhang's mother came to Xu's ear, saying that the old aunt had come.

Xie Yujiao felt that she didn't need to eat any more, and that watching a play was serious.

Aunt Fang came in with her aunt and grandma, seeing that breakfast was still in the hall, she didn't know how to start.Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Why is my aunt and grandma here today? Have you eaten breakfast too much? Let's have some together."

Aunt Fang turned to Xu Shifu, and replied for the old aunt and grandma: "The old aunt and grandma have already eaten."

Mrs. Xu was not angry, but Xie Yujiao wrinkled her eyelids. She had read a lot of house fighting in her previous life. When the wife and concubine quarreled and fought, the most common line was: When our master is talking, there is you Does a slave have anything to say?Although these words sounded funny, Xie Yujiao really wanted to tell Aunt Fang this sentence at this time. It was such an unruly thing, and it was fine if she didn't know it. If she knew it, she couldn't let her temper.

"My wife is asking about my aunt and grandma, what are you talking about?" Xie Yujiao said with a cold face, without raising her eyelids. She only waited until she finished speaking, then put down the chopsticks in her hand, raised her head, and looked at Xu's side A circle of maids and Zhang's mother said: "The wife is still eating. If anyone wants to see the wife, please ask her to wait outside. If there is any big thing, you have to wait until the wife has finished breakfast. If you If you are still so unruly, don't serve in front of your wife."

The maids heard this, but they all fell silent, they were so frightened that they all knelt down on the ground.The girl had never been angry like this before, and that face carved in powder and jade, coupled with such a serious expression, made people feel a little more frightened.Even Zhang's mother was stunned by Xie Yujiao's aura for a moment, and only waited for her to understand, then she hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "What the girl said is that the old slave is confused. If there is such a thing in the future, The girl drove the old slave out of the house."

Mrs. Xu originally wanted to support Xie Yujiao wholeheartedly, but she didn't expect her to come out like this. Just as she was about to say a few words of comfort, Xie Yujiao just quietly looked at Mrs. Xu and winked playfully. When she understood, she smiled and sang red-faced and said, "What's the matter with the old aunt, just let the maid come over and pass a message, why bother to come here in person, I will go to see the old aunt in a while."

The old aunt and grandma heard Xie Yujiao's words just now, her face was already red and white, she said that she did not obey the rules, and she was scolding her own people, but in fact she was just pointing at Sang Huai, using them as a raft.The old aunt suppressed the depression in her heart, remembered what happened today, and only said: "It's my fault, because I was a little anxious thinking about things, I came here by myself, and disturbed my wife for breakfast."

She was born as a slave, so she can still say a few soft words. After hearing this, Mrs. Xu felt really embarrassed. Even if Mr. Xie was alive, my aunt and grandma had never been so polite to her!

Mrs. Xu then said: "My aunt, grandma, what do you want to say? Just say, I have used up my breakfast, but I just want to go to the Xikua courtyard to accompany the master for a while." Xikua courtyard is the place where Master Xie died. I stayed there for a long time, chatting with Mr. Xie about the family affairs, as if Mr. Xie was still alive.

After hearing this, the old aunt and grandma felt that she was not being used even though she was not a guest.
