Chapter 57
Seeing Mammy's solemn expression, Xiangyu knew that there was something strange about Uncle Erbing's return, so she hurriedly nodded seriously and said, "Don't worry, Mammy, I'll save it, and I will never miss it. What do you say today?" After reading it, I just pretend I haven’t heard of it.” She was still a little uneasy as she said that, after all, Uncle Er Bing came back from a border town, and there were still wars there from time to time, and she was afraid that Uncle Er Bing would not be able to fight because of his injury. Just came back.

Seeing what she said, Nanny Li smiled and said: "It's not bad for you to think so, but don't worry, your second uncle came back with a little injury, but it's not too serious. He came back this time as the Duke The Lord is grateful that he is old, and it is not good for our family to be separated. It happens that the lady also needs personal help here, so he kindly let him come back, and rewarded him with a small Zhuangzi, so that he can earn money in the future. By the way, the matter of your second uncle's return was kept from everyone, so don't let anyone miss it, you can't say this to anyone."

Xiangyu was already careful because of what happened just now, so she couldn't remember, so she nodded hurriedly and said: "I remember, don't worry, mammy, as long as my uncle didn't suffer any serious injuries, I was always careful just now." After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "It's all right now. My uncle is back, and our family is reunited. By the way, is Xiaozhuangzi far from here? Is it possible that no one will serve my uncle?"

Huihui was made to laugh when she said that our family was reunited. Hearing the young lady's laugh, Xiangyu realized that she had said something wrong. .

Grandma Li looked at Xiangyu's shy look, and also thought that she regarded herself as her own family, and said in a hurry, "Okay, don't laugh, you don't have to worry about your uncle, he is alone like this." I’ve been here for many years, so I’m afraid I can’t take care of myself? The life here is much better than in the border towns. You don’t have to worry about the enemy’s invasion all day long. You just need to take care of Zhuangzi with peace of mind. You are blessed, you can eat whatever you want and sleep as long as you want, wouldn't you be happy?"

Hearing what Mammy said was easy, Xiangyu breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, as long as Uncle is fine, she has heard people say that it is hard for the gate guards in border towns, and thinking that Uncle Erbing is back now, anyone who can help Miss There were too many, Xiangyu laughed before he knew it, and hurriedly said to Huihui: "Miss, now that Second Uncle Shi is back, can we let Second Uncle handle this matter?"

After hearing this, Huihui sighed, and regretfully said: "Mammy just came back yesterday, although you can also talk about going out to buy something, the old lady Ruan at the corner door at the back street has a little friendship with Mammy, but it's a pity Mother Shi came here early, so there must be a lot of people staring at our yard now, so don't think about it with Second Uncle Shi, and the only plan for now is to wait for the news of brother."

Nanny Li also felt quite regretful, frowned and said: "Yes, it's because I didn't think about it! That's why I'm passive now. Now we can only wait for the letter from the young master. Miss, don't worry, no matter how bad it is. We can still use the medicine powder of the eldest lady to act, presumably if the second wife knows what the eldest lady is doing, she will definitely help cover up the truth of the young lady's illness, and then we will be more relaxed."

When Xiangyu heard this, she unconsciously twitched her lips and said: "Of course, the eldest lady has done such a vicious thing, can the second lady help cover it up, she will definitely find a familiar doctor to take care of the young lady." The illness is said to be caused by heatstroke, and even if the young lady is not sick, she probably would like to say that the young lady is seriously ill. In this way, how could the aunt think of finding a sick daughter-in-law to go back, even if the aunt is willing Now, she can't explain to the old lady of Ningxi Hou Mansion and Lord Hou! It must be to find someone else, isn't this just as the Second Madam and the others want."

After listening to Xiangyu's words, Grandma Li couldn't help feeling a little impressed, so she smiled and said, "I didn't expect Xiangyu to be so knowledgeable, yes, your analysis is very good, but the second wife is not the only one who thinks about this at home. It’s a good marriage, so there are many variables. Now we are only afraid that others will use the lady as a raft to achieve their own goals, so we can’t wait for others to act, we can only wait for the possible crises in advance—— Only when you have figured it out can you feel at ease! You must know that there are packs of hungry wolves around here!"

Huihui couldn't help laughing when she heard what the hungry wolf said, she nodded and said, "What Mammy said is really apt, aren't these people just hungry wolves who want to tear off the last piece of meat from others? It's a pack of wolves looking around, we really can't take it lightly! The old lady is really tall, and she made us feel that we are struggling with just one small move."

When Xiangyu heard this, she suddenly understood. She said that everyone treated her yard so politely this morning. It was a good meal and cold soup to cool off the summer heat. The direction signs in the mansion have changed. No matter what Mama Shi came to their small courtyard for, just because the old lady can make Mama Shi, the only popular person around her, come to their small courtyard to spread the word is enough for them to put away their paws first, and take care of themselves. After thinking about it, Xiangyu spat and said bitterly: "These old women who will collapse at the first sight, I said that they are so generous to us today, so it is because Mama Shi came. "

Nanny Li naturally also understood the real intention of the old lady in using the Shi family to come to their courtyard to spread the word. Let's see, the old lady is the No.1 in this house, no matter who it is?But they are all the words of the old lady, which can send you to heaven or hell. Thinking of this, Madam Li sighed deeply. Like duckweed, it's up to people to deal with it!

Seeing that the two of them suddenly became depressed, Huihui quickly smiled and said, "Don't be like this, the purpose of the old lady is nothing more than to let us understand that everything I enjoy now is rewarded according to her wishes. It's not a sign of her being harsh and indifferent. If she can really kill me, I can easily pass the test, so why send Mama Shi to warn me? It can be seen that she can treat me coldly but wants me to disappear or quietly. It's not so easy to be silently terminally ill."

When Nanny Li heard this, she patted her hands and shouted: "No, it seems that I made a mistake. I was confused by the words of Mrs. Shi who got up early. The old lady really dare not take Miss How about it, when the Duke of the country left, he said something. If he knew who killed the young lady and the young master, then what was waiting would be a hundred times the entertainment from him. Opening his face, gritting his teeth and popping out words one by one, it is really frightening."

When Huihui heard this, she couldn't understand, and quickly asked: "What did Madam say, did my father come back three years ago? Otherwise, how could he say such a thing?" According to Huihui's thinking, the country If the father-in-law doesn't care much about their brothers and sisters, or there are other reasons why he deliberately doesn't care about them. If his guess is correct, then his father will definitely not come back when he fell into the water three years ago. Besides, he is a general in the border city. If there is a decree, you can't enter Beijing without authorization. How could your father disobey the holy will for her affairs?

Nanny Li knew that Huihui had misunderstood her, so she couldn't help but sighed, and said bitterly: "It wasn't three years ago that the Duke of the State never came back after he left. The courtyard begged her to find a doctor outside to show you. At that time, the step-wife promised to be fine, but it was a pity that the doctor didn't come until after noon. Fever is even worse. When the Duke of the country found out about it the next day, he lashed out violently. Only then did the words come out, but what is the use of the Duke of the country getting angry again? Did the lady suffer? , have been in poor health."

Huihui took over from the original owner only three years ago, so she really doesn't know about such a long time ago. Most likely, even the original owner doesn't remember that she had such a catastrophe when she was young. Otherwise, she should have some shadow. That being said, although Huihui understood it in her heart, she still had some other doubts. It seemed that only her step-wife made a move on the surface, but it is estimated that many people joined hands at that time. Madam has only been in the mansion for a few years, and she has the guts to delay her to the point where she is about to die?
Besides, Huihui felt that it would be impossible for the step-wife alone to procrastinate from morning to afternoon. You know how long it would take to find a doctor in the majestic Duke's Mansion in the capital?Even if it happened at night, it is estimated that with the face of the Duke's mansion, someone can be found immediately. The step-wife can only say a few more words to make the people below run slower. The most important thing is, if you just continue The lady is alone, her father, the Duke of the country, probably wouldn't say such a thing, there is definitely another way to deal with a step-wife, the father of the country, and there is no need to show his appearance.

Huihui really wanted to smile wryly, how hated she must be to make the whole family want her to die, even if her father left a harsh word like what the nanny said, the eldest sister can still easily plan She fell into the water, that's all, there is no solution to it, it's useless to think about it, Huihui took the hand of the nanny and said: "Okay, this word is getting farther and farther, isn't my health better, let's talk about it Now that I know the real purpose of the old lady, I feel relieved, anyway, I don't want to marry into the Ningxi Hou Mansion of Lao Shizi, so as long as we protect our own one-acre three-point land, we can just sit and watch others toss."

Nanny Li could only nod when she heard what the young lady said. Although she knew what she said in her heart, it was not that simple. Who made the aunt want to marry the young lady? Just now she thought of the Li family. This possibility, I already know that if I want to untie this knot now, it is no longer a matter for the young lady to simply pretend to be sick. I have to wait for the young master to come back, and we have discussed and explored the aunt's bottom before we can come up with a safe solution. protected myself.
