Chapter 130

If there is an uncle, it will be easier to talk about. Although the mother does not have a brother, she can find a way to make one.

Thinking of this, Hui An became more and more distracted, thinking and thinking, suddenly a bright light flashed in her mind, and she really remembered something, she immediately slapped the chair and yelled.

"Nurse, come here, I have something to ask."

A flash of lightning flashed in Hui'an's mind, and what he thought of was a matter that was already quite vague in his impression.

She still remembers that in the winter when she was six years old, she had to sleep in her mother's house overnight because of the wind and cold. When it was almost dawn, she was half asleep and half awake when she heard her mother say "brother" and "brother" to Nanny Chen. "Benevolence and righteousness", and so on.

She wanted to hear more clearly, but she couldn't wake up. After dawn, she remembered that she had asked Nanny Chen out of curiosity, and Nanny Chen only said that she was talking to her mother about someone her grandfather Shen Qiang had inherited from the army. son.

She wondered why she had never seen this uncle before. She still remembered that Nanny Chen's complexion changed at that time, and she ordered her never to mention this uncle with others, let alone ask her mother.

At that time, she saw that Nanny Chen looked very serious, so she agreed ignorantly. It is easy for children to forget something. in the back of the head.

Nanny Chen was mother's wet nurse, she had passed away long before her mother, now that Hui'an called Nanny Fang, she was a little uncertain whether she knew about it, so she hesitated for a while before speaking.

"Nurse, are you the Marquis Mansion I entered the year I was born?"

Mother Fang heard that Hui'an was going to participate in the competition between Taixue and Imperial College, so she was preparing for her the clothes she would wear in the future, and specially invited the famous proprietress of Xiangyi Pavilion in the capital to come to Hou's mansion with fashionable clothes to measure for Hui'an. He chose a fancy shape again, and told Xiangyi Pavilion to sew the clothes and send them over tomorrow.

But she was always dissatisfied with the style of the riding boots, so she thought about making a pair of riding boots for Hui An in the Hou Mansion according to her own ideas. The two third-class maids Bingyue and Hanyue who were good at female celebrities came to handle this errand. Just now Hui An shunned everyone to talk to Sun Xixiang, and Nanny Fang went to the wing room to watch the two girls work.

She was startled when she heard Hui An yelling, thinking that Hui An had something important to ask, when she entered the room, she saw that Hui An was anxious at first, then hesitated, and finally asked such a question, she couldn't help feeling a little puzzled , replied.

"What did the girl want to ask? But what happened?"

Hui'an just thought of Chen Nanny's attitude at that time, felt that this matter was extremely secretive, and didn't know what would be involved, so she hesitated.Seeing that Nanny Fang is in a hurry now, she feels that she really shouldn't. Does she have to be considerate in front of Nanny Fang?Thinking so, he went straight in and asked.

"After the wet nurse entered the mansion, did you hear about the grandfather adopting a son?"

When Nanny Fang heard this, her originally calm face suddenly became serious, she frowned and asked, "Girl, why are you asking this?"

Seeing her like this, Hui'an's eyes lit up, but her heart skipped a beat, she felt that this matter was really not simple.Then he signaled Nanny Fang to enter the inner room, and ordered Qiu'er to guard the door of the house, and then said.

"It seems that the nurse knows about this, but why have I never met this uncle, and I have never heard him mentioned by the servants in the house? The nurse don't ask me why I asked about this, but tell me what you know Just tell me." Hui'an moved a brocade mat and pushed Nanny Fang to sit down, and sat down on the soft couch herself, using a pillow to cushion her lower back, and looked at Nanny Fang seriously.

Mother Fang saw that she wanted to hear the story, and knowing that she insisted on knowing about it, she frowned and said, "Mother Fang only entered the mansion in the year when the girl was born. Passed away, and I didn't see any brothers of my wife. But later I heard from the old man in the mansion that the old Hou Ye had indeed adopted a son. Being able to become Madam's helper, and that man respected the old Hou Ye very much. He lived in the Hou Mansion at that time, just like the Hou Ye's own son. But later, I don't know what happened. One night, the girl in the Madam's yard almost Selling, beating and killing him all over the place, and after that, the old Hou Ye kicked that man out of the Hou Mansion, and the father and son were married, but suddenly turned against each other. At that time, there were some unpleasant gossips in the Hou Mansion, and the old Hou Ye broke out again , It is strictly forbidden for the servants in the mansion to mention this person again, and gradually this matter became a taboo in the mansion. After a long time, the matter faded away, and it was not even considered a taboo. But now more than ten years have passed, the mansion The servants have also changed a few times, knowing that Madam had an older brother, there are probably not many of them. Why would the girl ask about this?"

After hearing the words, Hui'an understood why Nanny Fang was hesitant to tell herself. She was afraid that this matter would hinder the image of her mother in her heart.Hui'an pondered for a moment, but was still not reconciled. She fixed her gaze on Nanny Fang and ordered.

"I remember that when my mother was still in the pavilion, there was a girl named Zhuming, who was quite trusted by my mother. I was released when I was three years old and married the son of the then chief executive of the outer court. Now that Zhuming But aunt lives in the back alley?"

Mother Fang heard the words, knowing that Hui'an was determined to clarify this matter, she nodded and said: "After the death of Manager Ma, his son was dismissed for seeking personal gain in procurement, and he was beaten fifty times After returning home, the master ordered the family not to use it again. Now Zhu Ming and her man are living together by buying wontons at the night stall on Tongzheng Street, and they are indeed still living in the back alley."

Hui An felt relieved when he heard this, and ordered: "Nurse, go and make arrangements. I want to leave the mansion quietly the next night and go to the back alley."

Like the mansions of ordinary people in the capital, the back street of Fengyanghou's Mansion is where the family gave birth to their children. Mother Fang nodded and went out, but before she could leave the inner room, she was stopped by Hui'an again.

But when Hui An got up, walked to Nanny Fang, and then whispered something in her ear, Nanny Fang was surprised when she heard the words, and then gave Hui An a suspicious look, nodded, turned and left.

When Hui An saw her go out, she lay back on the couch again, staring at her and thinking.
