Aunt Zhao's happy life

Seeing that the matter could not be turned around, Mrs. Wang could only use her trump card.

At night, the girls were about to rest, Mrs. Wang called Ling'er: "Come here!"

Ling'er asked, "What's wrong?"

Mrs. Wang said: "Rui'er is going to consummate the house on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. We should make preparations, so I will discuss it with you. After all, you are the most capable."

Ling'er also sat down and planned carefully with Mrs. Wang.

When Jia Zheng came into the room, he was very happy to see that what they were discussing was about Rui'er becoming an aunt, so he lay down and fell asleep on his own. After a day of exhaustion, he snored like thunder.

Mrs. Wang asked Ling'er: "Do you want some hot rice wine? It's late at night, it's chilly, and the charcoal is almost gone."

Ling'er waved her hand: "I don't drink, you don't know what's wrong with me, as long as I drink water at night, I'll get up in the middle of the night. In such a cold day, I don't want to cause this trouble!"

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Then you can drink a few sips to warm up your body!"

Ling'er was really cold, and her mouth was parched by the charcoal fire, so she got up and poured half a bowl of rice wine, and asked Mrs. Wang, "Do you want to drink it?"

Mrs. Wang said: "I've been taking medicine recently, and the imperial doctor said I can't drink alcohol."

Ling'er took a sip and frowned: "Why does this rice wine taste like this? It's a little sour. Did you keep it for too long?"

Mrs. Wang said: "Where is it? It's the hot wine at night."

Ling'er drank four or five sips, then put it down: "This rice wine is not brewed well!" As she said that, she felt hot in her heart and dizzy, and she stood up: "I'm sleepy, and I'm going to sleep, and the second grandma is also sleeping. Bar!"

While speaking, Ling'er stood up, shaking after walking a few steps, Mrs. Wang supported her, and moved forward slowly.Ling'er felt dizzy, then her eyes turned black, and she slowly fell asleep.

After half an hour, enduring the cold, Mrs. Wang shouted at the door: "What's going on? My God!"

The maids lit the lamps and rushed over, only to see Jia Zheng and Ling'er lying in the same bed, both of them just opened their eyes in a daze.

Mrs. Wang cried and said: "I'm all on guard against Rui'er, who knows that the second master has another one in his heart! In fact, you openly begged to be a concubine and I didn't say anything about you. What kind of talk is this? I just drank too much water and woke up at night. , you're getting mixed up!"

Jia Zheng hurriedly pushed Ling'er off the bed: "What's the matter? When did you come?"

Ling'er was still dizzy, and she didn't know what was going on: "I..."

Jia Zheng pointed at Mrs. Wang angrily: "You are playing tricks again! I have to go to the Ministry of Industry tomorrow to do business, and I will settle accounts with you when I have time!"

Mrs. Wang led everyone to the small apartment, and held Ling'er's hand: "It's normal for you to be a little dizzy after drinking the rice wine. I'm going to get up at night. Maybe you want to serve me and go astray!"

Ling'er cried, "What should I do? I'm going to die!"

Mrs. Wang said with relief: "It was just that time, the second master may not have done anything to you, don't yell! Besides, which old man is not like this, it is normal to have something with the previous few people, no one will Say yours."

Ling'er burst into tears even more: "I have grown up to such an innocent age, and I have never done anything to seduce men. What is going on? How will I get married in the future? Everyone will talk behind their backs, How can I meet people!"

Chunlan said: "It's okay, we all believe in you, you are not that kind of person, and you are not like a certain person."

Chen Xiang said: "That's right, we trust you, we won't say anything about you."

Ling'er was still sobbing, and when everyone couldn't bear it anymore, they all went to sleep, and she sat alone in the shadows, staring blankly.

In the dead of night, Ling'er was worried that the wind would come in and freeze everyone when she opened the door, so she was restless in the room.

After thinking about it, she still has a gold ring that was awarded by the old lady. I heard that swallowing gold can kill you, why not try it?

After fumbling around in her own baggage for a long time, Ling'er found the ring, but after trying several times, she didn't have the courage to swallow it.She poured a glass of water, put the ring in the palm of her hand, put it in her mouth, just picked up the glass to drink water, Ruier woke up: "What's the noise?"

Ling'er was so frightened that she choked, the ring was stuck in her throat, and she coughed continuously.

Rui'er quickly put on her clothes and ran over: "What's wrong with you?" While talking, she patted Ling'er on the back.

Ling'er coughed and retched again. After a long time, the gold ring fell to the ground, and the sound was especially crisp in the quiet night.

"My God! What are you doing? Ling'er!" Ruier yelled.

Everyone woke up again, only to realize that Ling'er was trying to commit suicide by swallowing gold.

Under the comfort of the group, the tired and sleepy Ling'er fell asleep.

Early the next morning, someone from Rongxi Hall went to tell Mother Jia about this.

Mother Jia was very displeased: "I don't know what kind of person Ling'er is? She must have been instructed by her master!"

When we arrived at Rongxi Hall, Mrs. Wang came up to greet her: "It's such a cold day, please trouble your mother to come here for this trivial matter."

Mother Jia said coldly, "It's not that simple. I watched Ling'er grow up. This is definitely not something she can do."

Ling'er opened her eyes and saw Jia's mother, feeling wronged and ashamed, she cried again: "Old lady, Ling'er is not clean anymore, I don't want to live anymore!"

Jia Mu held her in her arms: "My son, don't talk nonsense, I know you are a good boy." Then she ordered everyone: "No one is allowed to spread rumors, Ling'er is not that kind of person!"

In the evening, Jia Zheng came back and went to Rongqing hall to say hello, and Jia's mother said these things.

Jia Zheng clenched his fists and said, "I have to say now that things have come to this. How can Shuhui have the demeanor of a lady? I went to bed early last night, and she was talking with Ling'er, why did Ling'er get into my bed?" She hasn't slept yet? Who knows what she ate for Ling'er? There must be flaws if I check it, it will only make her lose face, so I don't want to check it. There is another thing that my mother doesn't know. I don’t know what kind of drug was put in the wine, which caused me to fall asleep immediately, and that’s how I got Pearl.”

Jia's mother asked: "Is this true? How can a family like ours tolerate such a person who uses all kinds of tricks!"

Jia Zheng sighed and said, "Ling'er is stubborn. Although she didn't die, she will definitely not be able to live in the future. What should I do?"

Jia's mother said: "In my opinion, we can only let her be an aunt. Our family does not lack the expenses of two taels of silver a month."

Jia Zheng panicked: "What's going on?"

Jia's mother said: "Ling'er has served you since she was a child, and she has worked hard without complaint. It is reasonable to give her a title. Otherwise, who do you want her to rely on in the future? It's better than dragging her to be a kid? She will definitely have trouble with this matter. You put her Only by accepting her as a housemate can she survive."

Jia Zheng was so anxious that his forehead was sweating: "What about Ruier?"

Jia Mu said: "Rui'er wait a little longer, wait for a good time, let Ling'er consummate the house on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month."

Jia Zheng wanted to cry, but when Ling'er got the news, she also resisted in every possible way: "I know it's not Erye's fault, it's because I was confused for a while, I can't rely on Erye!"

Mother Jia persuaded herself: "When the old man was alive, he said that he chose you to be his aunt. You have been loyal to the second master for so many years. We all see it. It's not because of this. We have already decided, you can consummate the house on the eighth day of the lunar new year!"

Ling'er was still struggling, and Jia's mother said: "Actually, it's nothing. Even though you are an aunt, you are still just a big girl, so there is nothing to worry about. Tomorrow, I will give you Jinxiu and Jinrong, who are working in the yard. You go In the end, I will have a room by myself, so don’t sleep in a suite.”

Seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, Ling'er had no choice but to silently agree.

In fact, Ling'er's becoming an aunt is something everyone is looking forward to, so all the servants and maids in Rongxi Hall came to congratulate her, but Ling'er couldn't lift her head up.

After everyone left, Mrs. Wang went to Ling'er quietly: "In the future, you will have your own room, and it will not be so convenient for the two of us to talk about ourselves." Ling'er didn't speak, it was like a dream to her .

Mrs. Wang said: "Ling'er, you will serve the second master well in the future, and if you have a child early, you will be able to rely on you for the rest of your life. Look at me, after Zhu'er is born, the old lady and the second master will give me a little bit. If you have a child, no one can underestimate you, everyone will rush to treat you well and curry favor with you."

Linger said dumbly: "Understood."

Ling'er never expected that all the things prepared for Rui'er became her own.

On the day of the consummation, which happened to be the Laba Festival, Mother Wang sprinkled a lot of melon seeds, peanuts, and longan on the bed and the tent, and Mother Jia gave a pair of gold-encrusted tortoise shell bracelets.In the new house, the mothers-in-law and maids ate eight-treasure porridge together and joked about Linger.

As the night deepened, Jia Zheng's wet nurse Wang Momo said, "Let's go, let's not get in the way!"

Everyone laughed and laughed and dispersed, and there were still servants and maids lying on the door listening to the movement.

Jia Zheng just said, "It's been a long day, go to sleep!" He fell asleep right away, and Ling'er silently shrank to one side, not daring to touch him.

For this master of more than ten years, Ling'er only has awe and gratitude, but no liking, let alone love.

Two people who have no feelings share the same bed by accident.

After this night, Jia Zheng never went to Ling'er's room again, and Ling'er was still used to going to Mrs. Wang to listen to orders.

Jia Zheng didn't want to stay in the smoky Rongxi Hall any more. When he saw Mrs. Wang, he felt bored for a while.

Rui'er was no longer on call, Jia Zheng called her in the study, she just pretended not to hear.When Jia Zheng went out in the morning, she pretended not to wake up, put on his hat and belt for him without hesitation, and sent him outside the courtyard.

Jia Zheng knew what Rui'er was angry about, his heart was empty and he didn't know where to start.He was so busy with business that he couldn't find time to explain to her properly.

It was not until the Spring Festival holiday on the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month that Jia Zheng seized the opportunity.

When I got home, I called Rui'er when I entered the door, but Rui'er ignored her, and ate sunflower seeds by herself with a cold face.

Jia Zheng took her hand: "Come on, let's go bake sweet potatoes!"

Rui'er knocked off his hand: "You have both wives and concubines, don't provoke me!"

Jia Zheng laughed and said, "I have a month's vacation. If you don't hurry up, I won't have a chance to accompany you in the spring!"

Rui'er burst into tears suddenly: "Don't keep fooling me like this! I hate you!"

Jia Zheng rubbed his hands and stamped his feet: "It's so cold! Come on, I'll explain to you while roasting sweet potatoes!"
