Chapter 4
On the Chaoshou veranda, Haitong grabbed a few lazy girls and was about to reprimand them, when suddenly he saw the angry Balang-jun and the weak and ill Mujin running towards the main courtyard one after the other.
All the maids were so excited to see the long-legged Mr. Balang that they became nympho, chirping and praising the disappearing figure endlessly.But after all, Haitong is a child of the family, he grew up in the inner courtyard, and his parents, brother and sister are all servants of the Cui family, so naturally he doesn't just watch the fun like a girl from outside.
At this moment, Haitong has keenly sensed that something big is about to happen in Chenguangyuan.
As a servant girl, she has two choices, one is to take the opportunity to show her face in front of her master in order to gain a higher position; the second is to find a place where she can stay alive so as not to be swept away by the tail wind from above and become cannon fodder in vain.
Just when Haitong was debating whether to take advantage of the opportunity or to protect herself wisely, she saw Qin's mother in the county lord's room quickly running out from the path on the other side, her movements were not at all like that of a 50-[-]-year-old old man. The woman, on the other hand, was surprisingly agile and flexible. When she passed by Mr. Balang and the others, she turned around and hid behind the rockery, and ran out of the main courtyard very cautiously.
Seeing this scene, Haitong became more certain of what he was thinking—something must have happened to the county lord, and it was likely to cause waves in the entire Cui family.
After deliberating over and over for a long time, the little girl's immature face flashed a flash of determination, she told the other little girls, and then turned around and ran towards the Rongshou Hall. Her mother was doing some needlework in the old lady's yard. Although her job is not to be close to her confidants, she can still inquire about some news, and she has much more knowledge than the younger generation. She is going to ask the old lady first.
Main building of Yinghui Courtyard
The eldest wife, Mrs. Wang, leaned casually on the big kang by the window, and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old servant girl stood behind her with a flower and lacquered palace fan, gently fanning her.
The room was very quiet, except for the faint chirping of cicadas outside the window and the slight sound of wind blowing leaves, there was almost no sound.
Even the maids on duty in the room were also affected by the quiet atmosphere, and all of them dozed off listlessly.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps coming from the yard, instantly breaking the quiet world, startling the heartbeat of the master and servants in the house, and following the sound with some trepidation.
I saw a chubby woman in her thirties and 40s running into the house panting, her face like a round pancake was covered with beads of sweat. At this moment, she didn't care about being passed on, and rushed into the Westinghouse directly.
The maids serving outside were also stunned by the woman's reckless behavior, completely forgot to stop her, and watched her rush into the master's bedroom stupidly.
Of course, being frightened was one reason, and there was a more important reason - that woman was not just anyone, but the lady of the Qin family who was the wife's companion.
"Young lady, no, it's not good, the county lord, the county lord—" The lady of the Qin family was so tired that she couldn't speak clearly.
Mrs. Wang woke up the moment she heard the footsteps. She leaned on a mottled silk sac (a kind of huge pillow in Tang Dynasty), her expression was indifferent. With such a gaffe, Wang said coldly: "Xiuju, what happened to make you so anxious that you even forgot the rules?!"
Mrs. Qin was originally Wang's eldest maid when she was young, and was matched with a small steward of Wang's family. Later, when Wang married into Cui's family, their family followed into Cui's family as one of Wang's confidantes.Mrs. Qin's boudoir name is Xiuju, which was also given by the Wang family.
At this moment, although Mrs. Wang still called her by her boudoir name, Mrs. Qin heard the hidden anger of her master from her cold words. Thinking of Mrs. Wang's sternness, she could not help but flinch, but soon, she again He raised his head, knelt down to admit his mistake, and then replied bitterly: "It's all the servant's fault. I messed up the rules of the young lady. After a while, the servant will go to the wife of the Zhao family to receive the punishment. Please also, young lady." Madam let the slaves explain the matter clearly."
Wang's raised her eyebrows, she heard some county lord in a daze just now, thinking of this, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and said: "Finally, but what happened to the county lord of Xiangcheng?"
"Returning to the young lady, it is indeed a major event in Chenguangyuan. Just now, the servant received the report, saying that Mu Jin ran into the county master in Chenguangyuan. During the tugging, Mujin was thrown down the steps, and she seemed to have a miscarriage. Mr. Balang heard The queen was very angry and was rushing to the Chenguang Academy at the moment."
Hearing this, Wang could not help but sit up straight, with a solemn expression, and asked, "Where is the county lord? Has she ever been injured?"
Wang is not Xiao Nan, she only heard a few words and guessed Mu Jin's dirty mind, collision?Hmph, if it wasn't for some special reason, even killing Hibiscus wouldn't dare to 'bump' the county magistrate.
Wang's heart sank suddenly, the secret path was broken, if the county lord is fine, it's fine, if the county lord is injured or wronged, spread the word, and Lord Balang's reputation of "doting concubines and destroying wives" Just sit down, at that time, even the Cui family will be affected, and her Dalang is at the most critical time in her official career. You won't lose your job, but you won't be able to get promoted in the near future.
Not to mention, the county lord is the only daughter of the eldest princess and the only granddaughter of Song Guogong, and the Xiao family will find it embarrassing for the Cui family if they pursue it.
"Young Madam, something happened to the county lord," Mrs. Qin said anxiously, "I heard that the county lord was hit on the head. At first, the county lord was not allowed to send someone to the imperial physician, and he was not allowed to tell you and your wife. But, but then Yuzan and Yuzhu next to the county lord discovered that the county lord, the county lord seemed to have a miscarriage."
"What?!" Hearing this, Mrs. Wang sat up suddenly, and looked at Mrs. Qin with sharp eyes, as if she would change her words if she did this.
Madam Qin shrank her neck subconsciously, and said with a bitter face: "What's more troublesome is that the county magistrate fainted, and her mother and maids are also in a mess. At this moment, Qin's mother is crying and barging out .”
"Crossing? Who is stopping her from going out?" Wang didn't understand for a while, she said suspiciously, "Auntie and I have already spoken, Chenguangyuan does not have to abide by Cui's regulations, the servants in the courtyard , as long as you have the permission of the county lord, you can enter and leave the house at will, this mother Qin—"
Suddenly, Mrs. Wang thought of something. She squinted her eyes, as if she was asking Mrs. Qin, or muttering to herself, "Crying and shouting? Is she making a noise on purpose for the people in the house to see? Or—"
Mrs. Qin didn't care what the old lady was doing. Seeing that Mrs. Wang was motionless, she hurriedly reminded: "Young Madam, there is still chaos outside. Although it is in the inner courtyard, it is not guaranteed that the neighbors around will hear the movement. Go there Time--"
The neighbors of the Cui family are not ordinary people, they are either high-ranking officials or lords, if they hear about the Cui family, it will take a long time for the whole capital to know that the house of the Cui family is restless, and the head of the house is treating the magistrate of Xiangcheng harshly. , forcing the magistrate's nanny to cry and shout and beg the Cui family to 'let her go' for help.
Apparently, Mrs. Wang also thought of this, she grabbed the hidden pouch with her hand, thought for a moment, and asked in a firm tone: "You said Mr. Balang went to the Chenguang Academy to ask the county master Xingshi for his crimes? "
Lady Qin nodded hurriedly, "That's right, she also brought Mu Jin and two burly maidservants."
But during the two sentences, Mrs. Wang had already thought of a way, and she ordered, "Hurry up and report to Madam, and ask her to go to Chenguangyuan to stop Mr. Balang, and I will stop Qin's mother."
Saying that, Wang got up and asked the maids around her to help her straighten her clothes, smooth her hair, put on high-headed shoes, and hurriedly led a group of maids and women out.
Mrs. Zheng, the eldest wife of the Cui family, who received the news, also realized that the situation was not good, and rushed to Chenguangyuan with her servants.
As soon as Zheng's group walked to the front of the Chenguang Courtyard, they heard her youngest son's scolding from a long distance away. She was even more anxious, and holding the hand of her close mother, she stepped into the gate in three steps at a time, but Seeing the scene that made her almost faint...
