The Wang family of the Red Chamber has a wife

Staring at Nanny Lu in disbelief, Mrs. Wang felt a sudden pain in her heart again, she lost her breath and coughed repeatedly.

Seeing that her complexion was green and white, Nanny Lu quickly went forward to support her, while Fu'er had already rushed to get peppermint oil; she lighted the medicated oil and applied it on Old Mrs. Wang's forehead. At the temple, Nanny Lu couldn't help regretting her undisguised words just now, if her tone was more relaxed, maybe the old lady wouldn't be so angry!

"Qiuyue, what did you say went wrong!" Mrs. Wang tightly gripped Nanny Lu's arm, the muscles in her old hand were clearly visible, and it was obvious that she was holding a lot of strength: "She, she, Why does she even want to—”

Although Mrs. Wang loves her daughter Wang Yuening very much, if she chooses between the eldest son and the youngest daughter, the former will undoubtedly be more important.After all, if a daughter is about to marry and become someone else's daughter-in-law, that's the water that was thrown out!Thinking that what she likes is Wang Yuening's steady and quick voice, Mrs. Wang is really annoyed. What can't be used for her shrewdness?Bisheng told his son to be tricked!

Lu Nanny looked carefully at the expression of Mrs. Wang, slightly relieved, and continued to persuade: "Don't worry, no one knows about this matter. I will inquire about it myself, without anyone else's hands! It is the second girl." , Yinyue's younger sister has arrived, and was arranged by the second grandmother to be a second-class maid in the yard, and she only said that Yuzan made a mistake and was demoted! It wouldn't be a big problem..."

But she was shaking her head secretly in her heart. Nanny Lu had been by Mrs. Wang's side for these years, so she naturally understood why Wang Yuening's temper came from.Speaking of which, Mrs. Wang was also calculating exactly the same way back then, but she met a powerful natal sister-in-law at home, and her mother-in-law and husband are also shrewd characters after marriage, so her scheming was useless, and it was easy to succeed. After a few times, it was on the two pairs of children under my knees.

"Go, go and call the second girl here!" Mrs. Wang thought about how she comforted the little girl with nice words in the study in the front yard yesterday, and couldn't help feeling depressed, pointing at Fu'er and scolding: " If you get wind of it, be careful with your skin!"

Fu'er has been serving Mrs. Wang for nearly eight years, so Mrs. Wang doesn't shy away from any private matters, so Fu'er withdrew out of her busy schedule.

After about half a stick of incense, Wang Yuening followed behind two maids of jade tin and jade, and when Fu'er saw this, she stopped the two maids in a low voice: "It's better for you two to stay outside, the old lady has something to do with the second girl. Woolen cloth!"

The two servant girls were also obedient. Hearing this, they looked at each other, stopped in their tracks, stood by the door and lifted the curtain, allowing Wang Yuening to go in alone.

Entering the room, Wang Yuening's heart skipped a beat. She saw Mrs. Wang sitting on the kang with no expression on her face, holding a small kiln bell with five colors in her left hand, and pinching the lid on the other side to skim off the foam on the tea surface. Mammy was sitting under the kang, her hands were wrapped in her navy-rimmed sleeves, her eyelids were closed, when she heard the movement at the door, she glanced at it, and hurriedly stood up: "Second Miss is here!"

"What's the matter, mother?" Wang Yuening came forward with a smile, intending to talk to Mrs. Wang as usual. After walking two steps, she heard a crisp sound, and it was Mrs. Wang holding the bowl The cover was put down.

Still with a stern face, Mrs. Wang looked at Wang Yuening who was standing on the ground at a loss, and pursed her lips: "Kneel down!"

Since she was reprimanded for beating a maid to death when she was ten years old, Wang Yuening has never seen her mother raise eyebrows at her for so many years. Hearing that there was no room for negotiation in Mrs. Wang's voice, she knelt down straight, Lifting her face, tears were streaming down her face: "Mother, but what did my daughter do wrong to make her angry? Mother just punishes me, I just hope that my mother will not get angry!"

Faced with her daughter's attitude, Mrs. Wang frowned slightly. After all, she was the daughter she loved for many years. Seeing her like this, how could Mrs. Wang not feel distressed?Just thinking about all the things Wang Yuening did, Mrs. Wang hardened her heart: "Yuening, I just want to ask you, do you know the details of what happened between Yuhan and your elder brother yesterday?"

After a moment of panic, Wang Yuening calmed down. What happened in the study yesterday, she thought about it for a long time after going back, but she couldn't figure out why Wang Zisheng sobered up inexplicably?I also happened to drink that bowl of hangover soup with purple ginseng...

However, she thought that she had to clean up the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen every day, and there was no evidence to prove that she did it, not to mention that her mother always valued face, and such things must be covered up, so Wang Yuening is not very big Worry.Who would have thought that this matter would be brought up again today!

"You don't need to evade it on others, but that jade hairpin has suffered an indiscriminate disaster!" Mrs. Wang saw clearly the panic and hesitation that flashed across her eyes, and the last trace of disbelief disappeared in her heart. She looked at her daughter with eyes full of disappointment. Her face, this look of humiliation and filial piety—hey, if I didn't know the whole story, I might really think that everything has nothing to do with her because of her actions and words.

Mrs. Wang took out a blue and white soup bowl from behind, and the residual juice in it was still there. She shook the bowl, her brows were full of anger: "I always only asked you to work hard on the virtues of women, but you didn't Thinking that the daughter I raised actually understands these flowers and plants! What is mixed in here, Yue Ning, as a mother, I won’t say it, I feel ashamed to say it!” Although the old lady Wang said she was scheming, but she She knows the purpose of this purple bearded ginseng, and her mother only told her before she got married; she was conceited that she taught her daughter well, so that nothing would be corrupted, but her daughter used such methods this time, which made her greatly Get annoyed.

"Mother—" Wang Yuening had always been eloquent in front of her mother, but when she suddenly faced her mother's stern voice, she couldn't think of an answer for a while, and she called out, but couldn't continue.

"The second young lady should just sit quietly in the yard!" Seeing that she had shame and anger on her face but no remorse, Mrs. Wang sighed deeply, her children are debts, so could she just let it go?Shen Sheng instructed Nanny Lu: "From today on, the housekeeper in the hands of the second girl will be entrusted to—"

She stopped suddenly, thinking of something, she thought about it for a long time, then shook her head: "Forget it, let the eldest daughter-in-law take care of it! Only the yard can't be left!" Thinking about what the second son told her the day before yesterday However, even though Mrs. Wang was unwilling, she had no choice but to release Wang He's ban in advance.

When the news about the second girl being grounded and the eldest grandma taking back the housekeeper reached Shi Qingwan's ears, she was looking through the items in her small warehouse in front of the dowry list. Facing the pieces of ancient porcelain calligraphy and paintings, she had to I sigh with emotion at the heart of the historians in the south of the Yangtze River who love their daughters.Just looking at the few calligraphy and paintings at the bottom of the box, it is hard to buy, not to mention that the historian's wife secretly slipped a bank note to Shi Qingwan before she got married. In this way, Shi Qingwan can be regarded as a rich woman.

"The second girl has been grounded?" Hearing this, Shi Qingwan frowned and asked back with her mouth pursed.After getting a definite answer, the two smiles on her lips shone brightly: "It seems that the old lady has found out..."

Speaking of it, Wang Yuening's behavior is actually hard to find the clues. After drinking the medicine soup, the medicine bowl needs to be washed, so it can be regarded as leaving no traces. Sleep.In fact, if Wang Yuening hadn't had evil thoughts in her heart, she wouldn't have ended up in the situation she is in today.

"Don't get out of trouble, tell the people in our yard to be more careful! The eldest grandma is back in charge of the house. These days, there have been many discords in the house. The second girl is now grounded, and the eldest girl doesn't like to stand out. If someone criticizes her If you come out, it will be our fault!" Shi Qingwan couldn't help but smile as she thought about the two orders of the old lady, the old lady had no choice but to drag Wang He out of her mouth!That's good, I can get out of this muddy water sooner...

Wang Ziteng stayed in the study, looking at his private room, with the lingering melancholy on his brows.Going to the capital is no different than staying in Jinling, you need to manage everywhere, and you have to think of another way to spend money, otherwise, how can you do with the private houses left by your grandmother and father?

Wang Ziteng has always been somewhat machismo, and Shi Qingwan has a lot of private property. Although he knows it, he has never thought of those ideas, let alone using his wife's money, even the idea of ​​using his wife's money is enough to make him ashamed.If a man can't even support his wife and children, what else can he accomplish? !

Just as she was worrying, she saw Hui'er come in and told about Wang Yuening and Wang He's being restrained and loosened.After hearing this, Wang Ziteng couldn't help thinking about what happened the night before.

Selfishly speaking, Wang Ziteng never felt that there was anything wrong with his elder brother Wang Zisheng taking concubines. After all, everyone has a love for beauty. A wife is also like a sister-in-law - I must also accept a gentle and beautiful girl.However, when accompanied by a beautiful, gentle and tender woman like his own wife, why bother with a lowly status concubine?

But it’s fine if this concubine is voluntary, if someone plots against you and doesn’t know it, then it wouldn’t be so wonderful...

Thinking of his second younger sister, Wang Yuening, Wang Ziteng shook his head helplessly. Yesterday's matter was over, but today the second younger sister was suddenly grounded, using the title of self-cultivation, presumably the seemingly innocent second younger sister must have inserted something into it. Let's kick it!He thought that although he had never been close to his younger sister in the past, Wang Yuening would be counted as a share of every good thing he got, which could be regarded as kindness. How could he have imagined that this unknowing scheme was originally aimed at him?

Back at Wanlan Courtyard in the evening, Wang Ziteng brought up the matter of Wang Yuening being grounded, and sighed that the second younger sister hadn't made any progress at all. Facing Shang Shi Qingwan's puzzled and hesitant eyes, Wang Ziteng felt very strange, but heard Shi Qingwan With a little resentment and dissatisfaction: "Second Master doesn't know the joints!"

Wang Ziteng frowned, is there something wrong here?

After listening to Shi Qingwan's narration, Wang Ziteng was stunned.He never expected that the whole story would be so embarrassing. How much did he offend her to be retaliated in such a way?

Shi Qingwan filled a bowl of mountain and sea soup and put it in front of Wang Ziteng: "Mung bean cold skin is specially added here, and the fish and shrimp were only delivered from my village this morning. It is neither salty nor bland, and it is just right for eating now. Second Master, give it a try?" Seeing the deep disappointment on Wang Ziteng's face, Shi Qingwan kept her mouth shut and stopped talking about Wang Yuening.

Let Wang Ziteng know the twists and turns, so that I can do things myself in the future... Shi Qingwan thought to herself, Wang Yuening obviously doesn't look down on the second room now, and Wang Ziteng can understand it if he thinks it's because of the blood relationship between siblings You can't show it too much.Shi Qingwan is not a saint, and she can remain indifferent to being tripped up by Wang Yuening repeatedly. In the future, Wang Yuening will marry into the Rongguo Mansion, and she will follow the prince in Beijing, and there must be a lot of contacts. Taking this to make the prince feel cold, I am afraid that there will be no chance in the future!

"Forget it, she's going to get married after all! It doesn't have much to do with us..." Wang Ziteng smiled bitterly, "She's never looked down on her—— these days, she must have paid a lot of attention. Look at your face, it hurts you!"

Shi Qingwan shook her head, but smiled and held Wang Ziteng's hand.
