concubine poisonous concubine

Chapter 35 Little cheap hoof, you dare to scare me!
Seeing the old lady's attention, Xin Ruo hurriedly motioned for Mo Lan to bring them over, and Xin Ruo unfolded them one by one: "These are the drawings prepared for me by the embroidery workshop, grandma, please take a look, Xin Ruo wants to make some changes, but I'm afraid it's not suitable for etiquette. , Mother was frightened, Xin Ruo didn't dare to bother with these trivial matters, so she came to bother grandma."

The old lady frowned when she looked at it, and her eyes became a lot colder. The style was a bit old and not refined enough. As a dowry, Xin Ruo would definitely be rude when she came to Funing Mansion.

The old lady immediately understood Xin Ruo's intentions, and directly ordered Bai Zhi to call Mama Cao, the manager of the embroidery workshop, for questioning.

Mother Cao was still wondering why the old lady came here, but when she asked Bai Zhi, she just said she didn't know. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Xin Ruo and the old lady looked at the blueprint she gave Mo Lan yesterday, and she understood in her heart Eighty-eight, my legs are trembling right now.

The old lady is someone who has been there, and she knew at a glance what was going on. Didn't the eldest lady take care of this matter? Why did the old lady start asking.

When Mo Lan saw Mama Cao's legs trembling, she went up to help the road, and said caringly, "Mama Cao is sick, why are her legs trembling?"

The old lady glanced at her, and Mama Cao's legs trembled even more. The old lady slapped the drawings directly on the table with a gloomy expression, "This is the dowry you prepared for the third girl, which is more than ten times worse than that of the eldest girl. Tell me a reason!"

Mother Cao hurriedly knelt down on the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly: "The eldest girl is a daughter of the first son, so the dowry should be finer. The third girl is a daughter of a concubine, and the servants only follow the rules."

Well, follow the rules!The old lady took a sip of tea and looked at Mama Cao coldly. Mama Cao was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.

After a while, the old lady said coldly: "According to the rules, you are not afraid of losing the face of the Yuan Mansion, right? This kind of dowry is the rule of the Yuan Mansion. Such a crude dowry is used in the Funing Palace. What do people think?" My Yuan Mansion! When did Yuan Mansion get so poor?!"

As the old lady spoke, she threw down a cup of steaming tea that had just been brewed, and the tea splashed on Mother Cao's face.

The eldest lady is sick in bed, and no one can protect her. Even though this matter was ordered by the eldest lady, the old lady will not pursue the responsibility of the eldest lady right now, it is all her fault.

When her brow was red, the old lady threw down the drawing, "I went back and re-drawn it, and bought it according to the rules when the big girl got married. If there is another mistake, it won't be as good as this time." Luckily."

As she said that, the old lady's eyes became sharper, and Mama Cao expressed her gratitude again and again for doing things wholeheartedly, and she saved her life for nothing.

With both kindness and power, Xin Ruo finally saw the old lady's tricks. This mother Cao should belong to the old lady in the future. No wonder the eldest lady has been in charge of the mansion for many years, and the people in the mansion still dare not say a word when they see the old lady.

The eldest lady was lying on the bed and didn't know that she was stealing the chicken this time, and the dowry was [-]-[-]% worse than Yuan Xinyu's. It's her, but she's gone too far.

The old lady was more satisfied with the family of the Funing Prince's Mansion, not to mention that when Xin Ruo was still on the sick bed, the princess made the marriage, just this attention made her feel honored.

Looking at Yuan Xinyu's status in the Hou Mansion, the old lady liked Xin Ruo even more. According to her original intention, the dowry prepared by Yuan Mansion for Xin Ruo was a bit better than Yuan Xinyu's.

Just looking at the face of the eldest lady as the mistress of the house, it is not easy to pass Xin Yu, and the dowry that the eldest lady made for Xin Yu is not bad without thinking about it.

When Da Furen heard the news, her face turned pale with anger, and her condition worsened a bit.

Sitting on the bed, she gritted her teeth and cursed: "I have worked hard for the Yuan Manor for more than ten years, and in the end, her dowry as a concubine is as much as Xin Yu's, so what am I, and what is Xin Yu Xinrou in her heart! "

Xin Ruo sat with the old lady for a while, and then left the Chunhui Courtyard, thinking that the eldest lady was frightened, so she still had to go and see her, after all, she was also her daughter in name.

If the etiquette is not enough, you should hold on to such a small mistake and not let go, but you can torment her vigorously, but Yuan Xinran and Yuan Xinrou didn't come to play the piano in the old lady's house today, I don't know if they are in the lady's yard, it's better Yes don't meet.

After walking to the gate of the courtyard, Xin Ruo, who was far away, saw San Yiniang walking towards this side with her big belly, walking hard, so she hurried up to support her, and said: "Third Yin Niang is heavy, and the weather is cold, why don't you come here?" gone."

Although San Yiniang's body is only about six months old, I don't know if it is because of the recent increase in the quality of food. San Yiniang's belly has more than doubled from a month ago. Looking at Xin Ruo, she feels tired and panicked, and she is nearly three years old. She was born only a month ago.

San Yiniang hadn't seen Xin Ruo for a few days, and she missed her so much, she looked at Xin Ruo carefully, and saw that Xin Ruo hadn't lost weight, and her complexion was rosy, so she said: "Madam was frightened yesterday, Now that I know, it’s inappropriate not to come.”

As he said that, he looked up at Da Furen's yard, and the big tree had really been cut down. In this winter season, it is really anecdotal that there are snakes on the tree.

In the inner room, the eldest lady was lying on the bed crookedly, her face was pale and feeble, and she was standing beside her with a medicine bowl in her red sleeves, and tried to persuade her, "Madam, drink up the medicine, it has been heated twice. If you don’t drink any more, the time will be wrong.”

The eldest lady raised her hand feebly, saw Xin Ruo and the third aunt entering the room, then withdrew her hand again, her eyes shot at Xin Ruo viciously, and then she looked at Zhang's mother again, her eyes were full of doubts, how could she behave so well? Here, the snake is not placed in her house.

Ms. Zhang lowered her head in fright. About the lady being scared by the snake, she felt that something was wrong yesterday, so she went to ask the person in charge. After asking, she realized that the snake that scared the lady was the one who was specially looking for it. For the two that came, I immediately warned not to say much.

This matter must be rotten in the stomach, otherwise, once the eldest lady finds out, they will not be able to escape a dead word.

But she saw the snake put in with her own eyes, and she also saw the yard where the third girl entered, but why did the snake come to Da Furen's yard for no reason.

How could Xin Ruo not know what was going on in her heart, so she stepped forward to salute the eldest lady in a polite manner, and the third aunt also did the same. The eldest lady felt that the third aunt's stomach was an eyesore, and she didn't let the two of them get up.

Xin Ruo said it was okay, but San Yiniang couldn't bear it, she was on the verge of falling within a minute, and Xin Ruo hurried up to support her.

The eldest lady frowned and snorted displeasedly: "Why, you haven't come to greet me for several months, and you can't bear it in just a short while, your body is too delicate, I don't care if you marry Before entering the Yuan Mansion, how noble and noble you are, remember, in the Yuan Mansion, you are just a concubine, and you are not on the table."

The meaning behind the words was to ask San Yiniang to continue standing, Xin Ruo wanted to grit her teeth angrily, the snake fainted to death, she should have thrown the lively snake on her long ago.

The third aunt stayed in the courtyard on weekdays, and she didn't provoke her, so why should she put off her madam's airs all the time, when she was about to speak, the third aunt squeezed her hand, shook her head, and continued to stand, Mrs. Satisfied, he closed his eyes.

After a while, the third aunt's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. Xin Ruo gritted her teeth and accompanied her in a half-blessed posture.

Pointing at the lady's bed, trembling all over, the lady saw her heart beating violently, and saw Xin Ruo suddenly shouting, "Snake, there is a snake."

As soon as Xin Ruo's words came out, Hong Xiu threw away the bowl in his hand, and backed away in fright. Xin Ruo early helped San Yiniang to step aside, with Zhao's mother and Mo Lan guarding the side.

The eldest lady was probably frightened by the snake, so she didn't care, she just jumped up, "Hurry up and kill it, hurry up."

Because Xin Ruo stabbed the eldest lady's fatal point suddenly, the room was in chaos, the maid was holding a broom stick in her hand but no one dared to come forward, and the third aunt squeezed Xin Ruo's hand, her palms were sweaty.

But it's not that she's worried about snakes, but that if there are no snakes under the bed, the eldest lady doesn't know how to torment Xin Ruo, she knows in her heart that Xin Ruo is worried about her.

Silly child, she knows it's for her own good, but when the lady is angry, she'll be fine, but Xin Ruo may be sad.

Xin Ruo looked at Da Furen's appearance, and knew that she might be punished later, but she couldn't control so much, Da Furen dared to put a snake in her room, she just put a snake in vain, what happened? One ran away.

There was a stalemate for a long time, and finally, under the roar of the eldest lady, someone finally lifted the curtain covering the bottom of the bed, and there was nothing under the bed. The eldest lady cast her vicious eyes on Xin Ruo, "You little bastard, you dare to scare me!"

Xin Ruo bit her lip, with the expression that I had clearly seen it, maybe she was still in the room, the doctor was so angry that she was about to come over and beat her, her face was twisted and frightening, it felt like she was peeling Xin Ruo's skin.

Suddenly there was a sound from the window, and everyone followed the sound. Under the window, a faint green snake was looking up at the crowd, probably wondering why he was still resting in the cave, why he suddenly changed places.

There was also a group of menacing women staring at it, it didn't provoke them, and ran away quickly, saying that it twisted its green tail and burrowed into the corner.

Seeing the snake, Xin Ruo finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly saluted the eldest lady, "Mother's house is warm, the snake may have chosen this place to hibernate, Xin Ruo was timid, so he went back first." More than one snake.

After finishing speaking, Xin Ruo helped San Yiniang out of Da Furen's yard together, seeing no one around, couldn't help laughing, San Yiniang poked Xin Ruo's forehead with her hand, "You know what's going on, don't you? "

The window was obviously closed, but someone opened it suddenly. It can be seen that the snake was put in suddenly. It was obvious that someone was helping Xin Ruo in the Da Furen's room. I don't know who has the ability.

Xin Ruo shook her head, she really didn't know, but she could guess two or three points, so she said to Third Yiniang: "Whoever set him up, she won't be able to get out of bed because of whoever made him, and she still doesn't forget to deal with people. It can be regarded as a small lesson for her, I helped her find the snake, she should thank me."

Xin Ruo said shamelessly and confidently, if there was no snake, I really don't know how the eldest lady would punish her.

With a sweet feeling in her heart, Xin Ruo took San Yiniang's arm and walked into San Yiniang's yard. Zhao's mother and Mo Lan walked behind, thinking about the snake, and her heart felt hairy.

After staying in the third aunt's yard for more than an hour, Xin Ruocai returned to her yard with a small box, but she didn't know that someone was waiting impatiently on the old locust tree, and the fallen leaves fell one by one, which was quite a big Heap, just like sweeping the ground.

Xin Ruo and Mo Lan went back to the house, picked up the small purse, and carried the small box out of the yard. Zi Lan followed a step later, but Xin Ruo was nowhere to be seen.
