A world of glory

In the main courtyard, Master Hou left with a flick of his sleeves, Madam just sat down on the ground, the tears on her face were still wet, her hair was disheveled, staring blankly at the closed window lattice, motionless.Suddenly Madam laughed, she was out of breath from laughing, she was laughing, she suddenly felt like a knife was piercing her heart, she couldn't breathe from the pain, in a trance, she thought of the past ten years, when she first heard the good news Shy, the sweetness of the bridal chamber, until the sweetness of being pregnant later.When did all these things disappear, and there was only a stagnant calm day after day, and the only thing she could care about was that lump of flesh that fell from her body, that naughty child...

Suddenly the girl outside the door reported tremblingly in the corridor: "Madam, Aunt Fang, Aunt Wang, Aunt Liu have come to say hello."

Madam's eyes turned cold, she took a handkerchief to wipe off the tears, and said slowly: "Let them wait." Then she said coldly: "Where are the laurel leaves and woody fragrance? You still haven't come in to help me change."

Gui Ye and Mu Xiang saw Hou Ye talking to his wife, and they drove away the people outside the house. They brought a few confidants to guard the door, and they heard the crying and making noise in the house, and their hearts were in a state of agitation. .Later, when I saw Lord Hou go out, I ordered someone to search for someone to come back. It happened that three aunts came to pay their respects. Gui Ye and Mu Xiang hurriedly ordered people to welcome the guests and make tea. Winking, hurried into the house.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw his wife sitting in front of the red sandalwood inlaid gold dressing table. She had untied her hair and was taking out a delicate mahogany comb to comb her hair. Her face was peaceful, showing no signs of happiness or anger.The two of them did not dare to say much, they helped Madam to freshen up, opened the makeup box again, and took out a set of tourmaline inlaid ruby ​​​​heads that Madam usually wears.Madam glanced at it, only shook her head, and ordered: "Take out the set of emerald emerald beaded Chengchun Ruyi hair." Mu Xiang glanced at the osmanthus leaves in surprise, and hurriedly took another golden silk and white jade head. The embroidered box came out, put it on for the lady with a smile, flatteringly said: "This set of jewelry is just right for the red silk dress that my son made earlier, very luxurious and dignified." The lady smiled slightly.He just said, "Then just wear that dress."

Dressed neatly, Madam took a look in the mirror, consciously dressed gorgeously but still dignified, nodded in satisfaction, held Mu Xiang's hand, and then slowly went to the flower hall.

When we arrived at the flower hall, Madam sat down on the front couch, thought for a while, and then came back to her senses, and said lightly: "Let them come in."

Three low-browed women dressed as women came into the house with their maids. Aunt Fang was still weak and charming, as if she would fall down when the wind blows; Aunt Liu just entered the mansion a few years ago. The color is very beautiful, with the appearance of shameful flowers and closed moon; Aunt Wang gave birth to willow eyebrows like smoke, ear repair and nose augmentation, only brother Xiu got hurt when he was a child, not to mention his sallow face, he looks ten years older , but the pair of jade hands are still white and red.

Seeing his wife sitting on the couch, dressed in extravagant luxury, it made her dignified even more.The three aunts hurriedly smiled and saluted: "Servant, please greet Madam." Seeing Madam nod her head, she stood up.

Aunt Liu has always been lively, she only smiled to please Madam and said: "I heard that Brother Xian is not well, and it happened that my brother sent a catty of blood swallows, and I specially used it to make up for Brother Xian." Saying so, he ordered the servant girl to bring a mahogany box and present it.

Madam listened to Aunt Liu's words and knew that Aunt Liu intended to curry favor with her, but Aunt Liu had always been knowledgeable and responsible, and she was a bit respectable in front of Madam, Madam only smiled and nodded, let Gui Ye take the box, and He asked with a smile, "Is your brother still in charge of procurement work outside the palace?"

Aunt Liu smiled, and said: "Fortunately, madam still remembers, it's not that she is still frugal in front of the big sesame and mung bean purchasing officer, and it's so hard that everyone in their yamen is too idle."

As soon as the words came out, the madam laughed straight away, and only joked: "I only heard people say that officials are afraid of trouble and think official duties are heavy, but they don't want to have that leisure, but they can't be idle, but they should be exchanged for each other. It’s not the best of both worlds.”

Aunt Liu still had a smile on her face, and she complained straight away: "That's not the case. I just got an errand, but I was so busy that I didn't even have time to drink water. I just think that I have too little time. Now that I am free, I feel disgusted." It's too leisurely, it's just the words of the mouth anyway, which makes people angry and funny."

Madam picked up the tea, lowered her head to drink, suddenly remembered something, said with a smile: "If it's really too leisurely, I have something to entrust to him, and I don't know whether to bother or not."

When Aunt Liu heard the words, she beamed with joy and said: "Whether to entrust or not, madam can just order. I'm really afraid that my brother is too stupid and misses madam's business."

Madam smiled and said nothing, she glanced again, and Aunt Fang and Aunt Wang who were silent at the side asked with a smile: "Brother Xiu is feeling better, the old lady was still talking about it yesterday."

Aunt Wang lowered her head and replied in a low voice, "It's better, but I still have a cough."

Madam's eyes darkened, and she sneered and said, "It's not that I'm talking too much. Since my brother fell from your body, it's hard to take care of him. The old lady also said that the one who coughed for a while, and the one who had a cold for a while, can be seen as the waiter. No, if it’s still like this, it’s better for her to pick it up, just to spoil her grandchildren.” Aunt Wang trembled, looked up at Madam, then hurriedly lowered her head.

The lady said to Aunt Fang again: "You should restrain yourself a bit. You are either pestering brother Wen or the second girl all day long. It's really outrageous. Both brother Wen and the second girl are sensible and upright. Yes, it's another family, I don't know how to pamper them. You'll be crying all day long, and you won't be afraid of embarrassing them." Aunt Fang agreed nonuo, her bright eyes were even more autumnal.

Seeing Aunt Fang's appearance, Madam was even more displeased, but today she was crying and fussing, she was already tired, and now she was even more exhausted, so she just put down the teacup and said: "It's all over today. You should think about it since you go back, and let the mansion be clean for a few days." Seeing that Madam sent them away, the three aunts still stood up with smiles and said goodbye, with the same courtesy.

But Qin Yi was very surprised when he saw the name on the note. He doubted and doubted even Hou Ye several times. People who meet.But although I have a face-to-face relationship with this person, there is no offense at all, so why would I attack him.

Qin Yi was surprised for a while, and finally calmed down. After thinking about it carefully, he found that this person was so calculating, he couldn't help but admire him secretly.He has been ill for a long time and cannot be cured, so the General's Mansion will definitely investigate. After many investigations, he will definitely find his wife's head like today.But according to Madam's background, it is impossible for Lord Hou to stand up for him, a concubine. At that time, the Hou Mansion and the General's Mansion will not talk about it, and even a family from the previous dynasty like Zhou's family will be involved. Even the character of everyone in the mansion has been thoroughly understood, and it only makes people feel cold.

However, no matter how scheming this person is, he is still just a housewife. Now that he has figured out the ins and outs, Qin Yi smiled slightly, he is not the gentleman who does not care about villains.

In the early morning of that day, the garden was full of green shade, and the rare cool breeze dispelled some of the heat.The daughters-in-law and women in the garden also took advantage of the coolness to be lazy.There are several small hills piled up with Taihu Lake stones by the lake, and the pavilions with flowers and trees on them are so ingenious that they are almost real.The two cleaning women were lazily sweeping the leaves on the ground, and gossiping: "Sister He, have you heard that the Lin San's family is gone, but it's a pity that a big living person said he didn't have it, so he's gone." , I saw her majestic a few days ago."

The other woman sneered and said, "It's not that imposing. You probably didn't hear about the second grandma's interrogation. It's not a big deal to bully the master."

The old lady at the beginning was puzzled again: "It's really strange that you said this, the people involved in the accident are all very respectable, just to play a game, they lost their jobs, and they were all kicked out. The third daughter-in-law Lin was quite lucky, she was found on the head, but she fell to the head, and now it is all over. The second grandma will not care about a dead person, besides, the third daughter-in-law Lin can be regarded as a person who came out of Madam's side , should be more respectable."

Then Mrs. He swept the broom, and suddenly asked in bewilderment: "The third daughter-in-law of Lin came from Madam's side, why do I often see her interacting with Mama Sun, and I dare to feel that she is beautiful in all directions. But it's not right, it's not right." Seeing her interacting with Zhou's mother, let alone Li's mother."

As soon as the words fell, the second wife came from the side with her maid, and when she heard the old woman's words, Liu Mei frowned slightly, her heart moved, and she said casually: "Why is it that Mama Sun is not Mama Sun, you two have a light job , where is the time to chew your tongue."

The two women who were bluffing stood on the spot blankly, and the second wife scolded them a few more times before taking the maid to the old lady's yard.Walking on the road, I thought about this Mama Sun in my heart. After thinking about it for a long time, I only felt that the name was familiar, but I couldn't remember the person.The second wife smiled and asked Yaohua, the maid beside her, "I heard what those two women said about Grandma Sun, but I remember the name, but I can't remember what kind of job this Grandma is doing?"

Yaohua replied with a smile: "It must be that grandma was so busy that she forgot about it. Then Mama Sun has nothing to do. She is just Brother Xiu's nanny and Aunt Wang's companion. The nannies of brothers and girls call them mothers, so they also call them mothers."
