Chapter 66
"Father must be very angry, please ask grandma to persuade you more." Ruoxi replied after hearing the words, "Although there is nothing lacking in the farm, it is not as comfortable as the mansion. My wife has never suffered, so it is better not to go if you can't go .”

"You child is so kind!" The old lady held her hand, feeling pity for the hard calluses in her palm.Thinking of seeing Ruoxi on the farm last year, the old lady still vividly remembers it.A good daughter of the Han family, dressed in tatters and bruises all over her body, went up the mountain to cut firewood and fell down the mountain in winter, so she didn't die.She has suffered so much and suffered so much, but she still retains a kind heart, which is really rare!
She is stable, filial, and can put the overall situation first. She also has a broad and tolerant heart. If she is a man, she will be able to hold up the sky.what a pity!The old lady couldn't help but feel a little regretful when she was relieved, none of her grandsons could match this granddaughter!
Not long after, the third master announced to the public that the third wife had a serious illness and needed to go to the farm to recuperate.There was no one to see them off on the day they left the mansion, it was just four or five maids and mothers-in-law who waited on them in a carriage.

It is said that karmic reincarnation is true. Six years ago, she drove Aunt Zhao's mother and daughter to the farm, and now it's her turn.I don't know what she is thinking at this moment, maybe she never thought that such a day would come!
As soon as the third wife left, there was no headed mistress in the mansion, and the old lady took over again.After a few days, she felt that she was not in good spirits. After all, she was getting old and wanted to be strong.

She had no choice but to summon the eldest wife and others, and said: "I have ignored the miscellaneous affairs of the house for many years, and now that the third daughter-in-law is going to the farm to recuperate, she still needs to find a proper housekeeper."

The eldest wife bowed her head and drank tea, she still had a calm look, but the second wife straightened her back as soon as her eyes lit up.

"When it comes to housekeeping, no one is more suitable than the old lady!" The grandma replied with a smile: "The third aunt just went to the farm to recuperate, so the old lady should suffer first."

Hearing this, Ruoxi quickly glanced at the expressions of everyone, and saw the obvious flash of contempt on the second wife's face.Although the matter of that night was suppressed by the old lady and the third master, it seemed that the fire could not be kept on paper, and some people did not want this matter to be concealed at all.

Although the old lady is getting old, her eyes are useful. She saw the expression of the second wife in her eyes, and she was bored in her heart.This second wife was originally from a small family, and after so many years in the mansion, she still can't get rid of her petty air.With a face of fearing that the world will not be chaotic, he only has his own little calculations in his heart, and never takes the honor and disgrace of the Han family into his heart.Even if the second master is not a concubine, it is impossible for her to hand over the power of housekeeper to the second wife.

Looking up at the eldest wife again, she still had that calm face.The eldest wife has been married for four or five years, and has always given everyone the impression of being peaceful and docile.But the old lady didn't think she was a good stubble, otherwise she wouldn't have trained a slave who was as eloquent as Li's mother.The last time the eldest young master's nanny made a fuss in the big room, without her saying a word, a mother Li sent them away.

She has only been in the mansion for a short time and has no family of her own, besides, the old lady has not figured out her temperament, so naturally she dare not hand over the power of housekeeper to her.

"I have a daughter-in-law, a granddaughter-in-law, and a granddaughter. It's time for me, an old woman, to think about Qingfu thoroughly. And I'm old, so I can't be convinced. Last morning I ordered the daughter-in-law in charge to do things, and in the evening I called her in and gave orders again. , I really have a bad brain." The old lady shook her head and said with a tired face.

The matter of the third wife made her doubt her own judgment. How could the third wife, who was a generous and virtuous niece in front of her, and who seemed to have a lot of wrists, do such a stupid thing?Suppressing an aunt is not a big deal, and it is okay to use cruel methods, but after several years, people can still find out that the methods are too low!
But who designed all this?Is it just a coincidence?It was really Aunt Zhao's haunted spirit that night, and she came to seek revenge from the third wife, Goddess Ma and others?The old lady believes in Buddhism, so she also deeply believes in the retribution of the underworld. She can't think of anyone who has such a great ability to act in this scene. In the end, it can only be attributed to the cycle of cause and effect.That girl, who Goddess Ma couldn't explain clearly, might be the incarnation of Aunt Zhao.People always like to attribute things that cannot be explained to ghosts and gods. Perhaps only by thinking this way can they feel at ease.

When Han Huang fell ill, the grandma proposed to ask the witch to have a look. The third wife and the witch Ma made a plan to frame Aunt Bao.Who knew that the horoscope was wrong and things would be exposed.Mama Liu, who was sent by the old lady, had a dispute with the third wife, and Aunt Zhao's ghost suddenly appeared, scaring Goddess Ma to tell all the past.This link is linked together, which seems to be carefully thought out but impossible.There are too many people involved, Han Huang, the eldest grandma, the mysterious girl, Liu Ma, not to mention others, but Liu Ma is the first person who cannot be doubted.

The only person who can speak out against Aunt Bao is Ruoxi, but how can she have such great ability to instigate everyone?What's more, after the truth came to light, she also took the initiative to intercede for the third wife, and it seemed that she was sincere and not pretending.The old lady's doubts about Ruoxi disappeared in a flash.

When the second wife saw that the old lady wanted to delegate power, she was afraid that everyone would blindly persuade her and then go back on her word. She couldn't help but said: "The old lady has worked hard for the family for half her life. Now that she is old, she should pay attention to health care. It's just that I, a daughter-in-law, is born stupid, and I really can't help the old lady." The wife shares the worries. I think my sister-in-law has a calm temper and should be able to handle a big job."

"Second sister, Miao Zan, I have only been in the mansion for a short time and I don't like the excitement, but I have never thought about the housekeeper." The eldest wife was panicked when she heard the words, and waved her hands repeatedly to recommend the second wife.

After hearing this, the second wife also said that she didn't have that ability, so she recommended the first wife.

The eldest wife said: "Now my second sister and I are mother-in-laws, daughters-in-law Xuan and daughter-in-law Hao are both smart and safe children. Why don't you let them try, the old lady will take the helm behind. Anyway, they will learn sooner or later. Housekeeper, it is their blessing to have the old lady personally train them."

Ruoxi's eyes flashed when she heard the words, and she thought to herself that the eldest lady's move was clever.She knew that the old lady was worried about her, and the second wife did not like the old lady, so it was difficult for the housekeeper to fall on the two of them.On weekdays, the old lady's third girl is long, and the third girl's short one is on the mouth. I am afraid that she wants to let the grandma take care of the house.Anyway, the eldest grandma is her daughter-in-law, so no matter what happens, she can't get past her, and letting the eldest grandma take care of her will have a lot of benefits and no harm to her!That being the case, why not take the initiative to mention it, and it can leave a good impression of not competing for fame and fortune.

As for the proposal to let Han Hao's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Chen, take part in the housekeeping, it was just to give Erfang a good look.Then Chen Shumei has only been in the mansion for two or three months, and the servants in the mansion have not recognized all of them, so what kind of housekeeper do they have?
Sure enough, the old lady looked at the eldest lady with a smile in her eyes, and said: "When I was a mother-in-law, I was not as lucky as you. Now I have become a shopkeeper when I just became a mother-in-law."
