Chapter 74

The old lady is very close to the second lady, her every move naturally cannot escape her old man's eyes, her sharp eyes flashed across the second lady's face, she took Jin Xiyue's hand with a smile, and asked: "What is this saying?" Who taught you this?"

As soon as the old lady's words came out, everyone's eyes fell on Jin Xiyue, the Eldest Master and the Eldest Madam looked resentful, the Second Master and the Second Madam clenched their hands nervously, and Jin Juyuan looked like he was watching the show He glanced at the old man and sneered and looked away.

"Yes..." Jin Xiyue almost realized that she had said the wrong thing. She lowered her head and took a peek at the old lady. Seeing that she was not angry, she thought that her little butt would not be beaten. He turned his head, pointed at his nurse, and whispered, "I heard it when my mother was talking to the maids..."

Jin Xiyue's nanny, Mother You, was startled when she heard the words, and looked at the old lady in fear, without waiting for her to speak, she knelt down, kowtowed her head on the ground, and said in a hurry: "Please forgive me, old lady. Forgive me, the old lady, the servant deserves to die, the servant should not say these things in front of the young lady, the servant deserves to die... the servant deserves to die..."

"Since you know that you deserve to die, then go down and receive the punishment yourself!" The old lady said lightly, without even looking at Mama You, she yelled outside, "Come on, Mama You is spreading rumors and making troubles without any cover, and she actually Dare to talk nonsense in front of your master, drag this broken-mouthed woman out to me, whip her a hundred times, and throw it out to feed the dogs!"

"Ah!" Mother You didn't expect the old lady to be so ruthless. When she stopped her words, she was frightened out of her wits and collapsed on the ground. She got up again in a jerk, and crawled to the side of Arhat's bed with all her hands and feet, crying and begging: "Old madam, it's the servant who made a mistake, old madam, please forgive me, there are old and young servants...The servant will never dare again..."

"Mother You..." Jin Xiyue had never seen such a scene, and the mother beside her shrank into the second lady's arms in fright, and began to cry.

When Mother You heard the crying, she hurriedly stepped forward and pulled her little master's clothes and begged: "Miss, please help the servant to talk...help the servant...you grew up on the milk of the servant...Miss... "

The cries of Mother You and Jin Xiyue echoed in the room, everyone watched coldly, and no one spoke for them. Mrs. Ru has always been soft-hearted, and when she saw this, her heart softened. She was about to get up and persuade the old lady to let Mother You go. Jin Liu, who knew when she came to her side, held her back.

Madam Ru was startled, and turned to look at Jin Liu.

Jin Liu also looked at Mrs. Ru, slowly shook her head, signaling her not to act rashly, and then raised her head to look at Madam Liu standing beside the old lady.

Mrs. Ru followed Jin Liu's line of sight, and saw Nanny Liu standing beside the old lady quietly, neither persuading nor asking someone to pull Mama You out, she understood what Jin Liu meant, it seemed that the old lady was not real. He planned to beat Mother You to death and throw him out, so he was relieved.

"Mother!" When Jin Xiyue was crying out of breath and pitiful, the second lady finally couldn't help it, and begged the old lady, "Although Mother You's mouth is broken, she is Xiyue's nanny after all. , I have a deep relationship with her, if today because of Xiyue's unintentional words and Mother You's death, Xiyue will definitely feel uneasy, so the daughter-in-law begs Mother, please forgive Mother You!"

"No!" The old lady still didn't let go, she looked at Mother You in disgust and said, "How can such a nonsense person let her stay with Xiyue, if she keeps her, it will be a disaster. My old lady is doing it for Xiyue today." Yue also wants to get rid of her scourge!"

"Old madam... old madam... slaves don't dare to talk nonsense anymore..." Mother You said quickly, she went forward to pull the old lady's leg on the pedal, but she kicked it away!

"How can I trust you!" the old lady said, staring at Mother You.

"Grandmother, grandma, please spare Mama You!" Jin Xiyue turned over in fright and threw herself into the old lady's arms, crying.

"You damn slave!" The second lady took a look at the old lady, and gave her backhand to Mother You, who finally got up, and scolded angrily: "How dare you dare to talk about things that I strictly forbid. Let the lady know that you are looking for death by yourself, no one else can blame you! It doesn't matter if you die, but my poor Xiyue, if I knew that you were a gourd with a sawn mouth, I wouldn't let you be Xiyue's nanny if I killed you!"

"Damn the slave, damn the slave!" Mother You cried and crawled to the second lady's feet and said, "Madam please help me..."

"Go away!" The second lady kicked Mother You away, glanced at her servants one by one, and said sharply: "From today onwards, whoever dares to talk about this matter, let me know Punishment is never neglected! Do you hear me?"

"Yes." The servants of the second room all lowered their heads and replied in panic.

The second lady nodded in satisfaction, then turned her head to look at the old lady with a pleading face, "Mother, look..."

The old lady glanced at the second lady, breathed a long sigh of relief, patted the sobbing Jin Xiyue and replied: "Since you have already said that, then you can take this slave back and deal with it yourself, just don't let me hear it." What nonsense, otherwise..."

"No, no more!" The second lady hurriedly said, turned to look at Mother You and said, "Did you hear me, thank you for your kindness, old lady, I'll take care of you when I go back!"

"Yes...yes..." Mama You replied repeatedly, and hurriedly got up and kowtowed three more times to the old lady to thank her.

"Get out!" said the second lady.

"Yes..." Mother You nodded again and again, got up quickly and backed out.

After Jin Xingxi and Jin Xiyue made such a fuss, everyone in the room fell silent, and the old lady's face was not very good-looking. The eldest lady glanced left and right, and her eyes fell on Jin Longqian who was next to the old lady. He smiled and got up to smooth things over and said: "These servants are talking too much, old lady, don't take it to heart, our family finally got together, don't let this trivial matter disturb your mood."

"What my sister-in-law said is that it's because my control of subordinates is not good, which disturbs the good mood of the old lady, I deserve to die! I deserve to die!" The second wife rarely agrees with the first lady, and said in agreement, and patted herself on the mouth in self-blame Twice, the amusing old lady couldn't help laughing, and then she was relieved. She folded her hands happily and bowed to the sky: "Amitabha, the old lady finally laughed again, otherwise my sin would be serious!"

Hearing Mrs. 2's words, the old lady laughed even louder. She pointed at her and said in a trembling voice, "You! It's really time for someone to smother their mouths with something, because you're making a fool of yourself!"

"If you want to paste, you have to use honey paste, so that you can say something pleasant to make the old lady laugh!" The second lady said cleverly, which made the old lady laugh even louder.

The old lady laughed, and the atmosphere in the side hall finally relaxed again. There were smiles on the faces of the gentlemen, and the children started playing around again.

The eldest lady saw the second lady showing off her words in front of the old lady, she felt contemptuous in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face, she turned her eyes, walked in front of the old lady, and said: "Today, while everyone is here, the old lady I'm so happy, I also have something to tell the old lady!"

"Oh? What's the matter?" The old lady looked at the eldest lady with a smile and asked.

"It's about this child." The eldest lady looked at Jin Longqian, her expression became a little depressed, and she said: "Speaking of which, I am really ashamed. I have been married to the uncle for more than ten years, and I only gave birth to two daughters for the master. , but did not have an heir for the master. Fortunately, Aunt Bao is a good one. She gave birth to a starling for the master only a year after she entered the mansion. Yes, but seeing how pitiful Aunt Bao is, the mynah is so young, and I couldn't bear it, so I kept dragging the child away, wanting the child to stay with his biological mother for a few more years. This delay lasted for five years, and the mynah was five years old. In the family, five-year-old children should have been enlightened long ago. Some of the three-character classics, hundred surnames, and thousand-character essays that were enlightened early will be memorized, so I don’t think this matter can be delayed any longer. In the future, the people in our room will still rely on him, so I want to tell the old lady in front of everyone today that from tomorrow onwards, I will take my mynah by my side to raise."

"Do you want to raise a starling?" As soon as the lady's voice fell, the old lady asked, the smile on her face disappeared again, and a pair of vicissitudes but spirited eyes were fixed on the lady.

It is only natural that the aunt wants to raise a concubine, and it is also reasonable for the eldest lady to have no children. Everyone didn't take it to heart, but when the old lady asked, they all turned their attention to the old lady. On the eldest lady, especially Jin Liu and Mrs. Ru.

The eldest lady was a little guilty when she was looked at by the old lady, and tried her best to control herself so as not to avoid her old man's sight, and said: "Yes, this matter should have been done a long time ago, and it is also my fault, but this time I am the next one. I've made up my mind, I even invited the teacher of the starling, Mr. Tan Yuantan, a well-known teacher in the capital."

"Tan Yuan? Isn't that..." The Second Madam heard the words and looked at the Second Master.

The second master nodded, and said to the old lady: "Mother, Mr. Tan is the teacher who used to be Zhengyang. He is a man of real talent. Many families in the capital are struggling to hire him."

"I only invited you because of my relationship." The eldest lady said with a smile, looking at the old lady, "Mother, look..."

It’s true that there is no one to plow the thin field, and once it is plowed, it will be fought for, and the thin horse will be ridden by no one, and once it is ridden, it will be robbed!Jin Liu sighed, looked at Jin Longqian in the old lady's arms, and was thinking that he probably didn't know that he had become a hot commodity now, but Jin Longqian moved his body and got out of the old lady's arms, Looking at the old lady innocently, she said, "Grandmother, didn't you say that you let me live in the main courtyard and call my third sister's mother my mother? Why does mother still..."

Jin Longqian spoke like a child, but the meaning in his words was obvious. The first "mother" was Mrs. Ru, and the latter was "Elder Madam". After reacting, she said in surprise: "It turns out that the old lady has already put the starling under the name of Sister-in-law Ru, so sister-in-law...isn't your work for nothing?" The second lady said and looked at the eldest lady.

"Why didn't I know about this..." The eldest lady forgot to take a look at the old lady, and murmured, as if surprised, but also as if she was asking why the old lady didn't tell her about it, otherwise she wouldn't be here He spoke in front of so many people.

"What Ru sister-in-law, sister-in-law, call me confused!" Although she knew that the second lady's address was correct, the old lady scolded her first, then looked at the eldest lady and said: "I just decided on this matter." , I saw that the mynah is so old and has no enlightenment, he only cares about playing crazy all day long, for fear of delaying his future, and seeing you worrying about the big and small things in the house, I want to help you with this matter, He's, the third girl is grown up too, don't worry about her, she is fine on weekdays, and she was born in a scholarly family, I thought that if she could teach the third girl well, she would naturally be able to teach mynah well, so I told her I just said this in the morning, and my starling kowtowed to her, didn't I have time to tell you? Who knew you would even mention this, it's a big deal!"
