Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

Mrs. Xu felt her footsteps were erratic, and was supported by Mrs. Xie and sent back to the courtyard where she lived.

At the beginning, Wu Guotai specifically told Mrs. Zhang to keep Mrs. Xu away from Sun Quan and Sun Xiang because the sons and daughters of the family were getting older.Mrs. Zhang has been with Wu Guotai for decades, and she understands the meaning of Wu Guotai's every sentence best.Then she put the courtyard next to Xiaowu's arranged by Mrs. Xu, and the garden is on the other side.

Anyone who wants to see Mrs. Xu has to pass in front of Mrs. Wu's courtyard.As for Xiao Wu, because Sun Ren entered the rebellious stage, he was not worried, and his eyes were fixed on those other children every day.Using Zhang's private whispers with Wu Guotai, it means that Sun Kuang was caught by him for being mischievous, so it doesn't appear that Sun Ren is unruly.

It is very appropriate to say that the yard arranged by Mrs. Zhang for Mrs. Xu.A young widow who lost her husband, and her uncles are all hot-blooded sons, and they arranged her in the innermost quiet courtyard...

But Mrs. Xu couldn't resist going to the west courtyard of Sun Quan and Mrs. Xie every day.

They are all people who have been here, who can't understand Xu's little thought.

In other words, Mrs. Xie is a newlywed, and she couldn't bear to refuse Mrs. Xu to go to her yard.

Mrs. Zhang knew that Mrs. Xu was stuck in the second son's yard, so she tried to persuade Sun Ren to play with Mrs. Xu.But Sun Ren said that day that she called me cousin and looked down on me as a little girl in her heart.Sun Ren would rather go to a government school to study and practice swords and guns with Sun Kuang after class than to go to Xu's again.

Seeing that her efforts did not work, Mrs. Zhang was very worried about Guo Tai, who she had served for many years.If you can find someone else without making a sound, marrying Mrs. Xu will be the end.Otherwise, it will be opened, and it will make Guo Tai and Wu Hou look ugly in front of Xie's family.

The second son has only been married for a few months.

It took a long time for Mrs. Xu to regain her composure after returning to the courtyard where she lived. Knowing that Wu Guotai was tired of her, instead of letting herself think about remarriage, it would be better to lock herself in the courtyard and let herself think about the consequences of refusing to marry.

The more she thought about it, the sadder she became, and she collapsed on the bed sobbing.The food box for dinner didn't move at all, and her servant girl circled around the bed anxiously, fearing that she would get sick.

Sun Quan's prefect of Xindu County flew away, and was very depressed for a while.But after moving to Shouchun, it happened that the Xu family also lived in the governor's mansion.Talking and laughing with Mrs. Xu for a while after dinner every day, the depressed mood dissipated.He was used to Xu having supper and supper with their husband and wife.

Sun Quan was very surprised that he didn't see the Xu family who was like a flower in his words and smiles when he came back.

"Where's Mrs. Xu?"

In the past two months since moving to Shouchun, Mrs. Xie has already become very angry with Sun Quan and Mrs. Xu's unconcerned behavior.But she knew that picking up this matter would embarrass the Xu family, the Sun family, and the Xie family, and make her mother-in-law dislike her.Besides, Mrs. Shizi said that Marquis Wu was already choosing a husband and son-in-law for her, and the mother-in-law might want her to remarry this afternoon, so why should she be angry with her husband.

Mrs. Xie smiled and said to Sun Quan: "Zhongmou, Auntie asked Mrs. Xu to talk today, and then told me not to disturb her for the next two days, and let her think about it quietly. So, she didn't come tonight Here we are."

Sun Quan understood that Xu was locked up by his mother.

"What did she do to annoy Mother?"

Xie's eyes widened slightly in surprise, "I accompanied her to A-Niang's place, and A-Niang sent me to pick up Ah Shao in her sister-in-law's yard. Aunt told me to take her back to the yard."

Seeing that he couldn't ask any questions from Mrs. Xie, Sun Quan was unhappy. He loved to eat fresh bamboo shoots on weekdays, but he couldn't eat them anymore.

After putting down his job, Sun Quan was about to go out, Mrs. Xie called him to stop.

"Are you going to Mrs. Xu? I'll go with you."

"Aniang said she wanted her to think quietly and not let you disturb her, I"

Sun Quan paused and couldn't continue.It would be even more inappropriate not to let Mrs. Xie go to disturb her.

"I'm not going to Mrs. Xu's, I'm going to A Niang and Eldest Brother."

Mrs. Xie nodded, tied the cloak on him, took the lantern handed over by the servant girl, and sent Sun Ce to the gate of the courtyard, saying, "Watch the road carefully."

Sun Quan came to the turn, looked back to see that Mrs. Xie was still standing there, waved the lantern at Mrs. Xie, turned around and disappeared.

Xie's dowry maid reminded her, "Madam, go back to your room, it's cold at night."

Xie put his hand on the maid's arm, took a deep breath, and slowly turned around and walked into the room.

The master and servant returned to the bedroom, and the maid asked tentatively while serving her master to remove her make-up: "Madam, why do you think Mrs. Xu is crying? Guo Tai said her?"

Mrs. Xie stretched out her hand and twisted the maidservant's face, and the maidservant screamed in pain.

"You, don't ask too much. If you hear anything, you don't hear it. Didn't Mrs. Shizi already say it this afternoon?"

"That would be great."

The two masters and servants exchanged glances, and they both understood why Xu was most likely to cry.

"Ma'am, she has a good family background, and the Guotai takes care of her. There are so many unmarried sons under Lord Hou, which one is not good, why come to our yard every day."

"How do I know what she thinks in her heart. She is crying, afraid that the country will not fulfill her wish."

Mrs. Xie shook her head after saying that, if the Queen Mother allowed Sun Quan to take a concubine, she would be under the control of Mrs. Xu, her concubine... Mrs. Xie didn't dare to think about it any further.

When Sun Quan went to his mother, he happened to see Sun Ce taking the exams for Sun Xiang and others.The four stood in a row, already asking Sun Lang.Sun Ren's eyes rolled around, and it seemed that he was guilty of not being ready.

Seeing Sun Quan come in, Sun Ce waved his hands to the four of them and said, "That's it for today, Ah Ren, I know you didn't work hard. The school exam in the second half of the year is still the same as today. Not only do you have double the hands, you are not allowed to go to the school for a month. Can you remember?"

Sun Ren saw that the eldest brother had a sullen face, and timidly said "yes".

Wu Guotai said, "Sun Xiang, you three should take my sister back home."

After Sun Quan saluted his mother and elder brother, he sat on the other side of Wu Guotai and faced Sun Ce.

"Zhongmou, are you here for something?" Wu Guotai asked.

"No, I'll come and see A Niang." Sun Quan said it very naturally.

Sun Ce nodded approvingly, "It is our son's filial piety to make peace in the morning and evening."

Sun Quan felt a little ashamed. He wanted to ask about his mother Xu, so it would be difficult for him to ask.

Seeing that Sun Quan was fine, Sun Ce also felt that it would be no harm for Sun Quan to listen to the arrangements for Xu's marriage, so he said to his mother, "Aniang, what does Xu mean?"

Wu Guotai glanced at Sun Quan's suddenly leaning forward and straight waist, and felt sorry for Sun Quan in his heart. Are you coming to your elder brother to die?

"I told Mrs. Xu, she said she didn't want to marry. I asked her to go back and think about it quietly for a couple of days. Your cousin kept her in our mansion just to ask you to choose a marriage partner for her. If she doesn't change her mind If not, arrange for someone to send her back to your cousin."

Sun Ce nodded, "Follow her, don't force it. Although I lack prostitutes and cousins ​​to marry, but if the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River dare to have unruly intentions, the sword in my hand." He patted the long sword hanging on his waist, "Will teach them to be obedient."

Sun Quan's expression was struck by lightning, Mrs. Xu is going to remarry?

"Aniang, the person I selected for Mrs. Xu was for my cousin's sake, and it was really for her own good."

Wu Guotai nodded, "I know that Ziming is smart, motivated and willing to work hard, so he will have a bright future in the future. If she misses it, she is also unlucky. We have done our best."

The mother and son talked for a while, and Wu Guotai pushed Sun Ce away.

"Hurry up and go back, Ah Shao is waiting for you. This little boy has to be taught by his father to become a talent."

Sun Ce stood up and saluted his mother, "Mother, rest early."

"Okay, okay, you go back."

Sun Ce told the maids in Wu Guotai's room to wait on them carefully, and then Sun Quan, who had glanced at the clay and wood sculptures, left.

Wu Guotai kicked out all the maids, seeing that Sun Quan hadn't returned to normal, she sighed in her heart. After Sun Ce's sudden death, she had to hand over the huge Jiangdong to Sun Quan. The first wife made a wife as a concubine so that he could marry his cousin and niece, so I don't know how to hold my breath in my heart.

"Zhongmou, what are you thinking?"

Sun Quan swallowed hard a few times before asking in a hoarse voice, "Aniang, Mrs. Xu wants to remarry?"

"Yeah, she is young and has no children. Could it be that she will be a widow for the rest of her life? Your cousin wrote to entrust this matter to me and your elder brother. Naturally, we have to choose the most suitable marriage partner for her."

"Mother, I..."

"You don't need to concentrate on helping with this matter. Your elder brother has already selected the right person. But she calls you cousin. When she remarries, you still have to add makeup."

Wu Guotai stared at Sun Quan with good eyes. Under his mother's gaze, Sun Quan hesitated again and again, but he didn't have the courage to say that he wanted to marry Xu.

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back early. Xie's family members have all returned to Kuaiji County, and she is in a state of panic. If you honor Auntie, live your little life well and give me a new year next year." A grandson. But let me tell you first, he is a direct grandson. Do you understand?"

Sun Quan nodded.

"I told you when your eldest brother got married, I don't want to see a concubine within 20 years, and neither do you. Go back."

Sun Quan was kicked out by Wu Guotai. He walked out with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and he stumbled on the flat ground several times.

Wu Guotai looked at Sun Quan, who was unsteady on his feet, and said in his heart that with Sun Ce alive, you don't want to do whatever you want in Jiangdong.Even if I can't change Sun Ce's fate, I will support Sun Shao and I won't choose you, a pervert, a bastard.

Mrs. Xu obediently closed the door in her yard for two days, and then took her maid to Wu Guotai's place.She had thought about it for a long time in the past two days. She was very happy when she first came to the Governor's Mansion, but after meeting Sun Ce and his wife once, she realized that she could not get in the East Court.It just so happened that Xie's newlyweds could not refuse her, and the difference in seniority between her and Sun Quan was really ignored by her.

How many aunts and nephews married the same husband and son-in-law, the emperor can marry his niece.She felt that her parents would agree with her choice, and her aunt wouldn't care, but she didn't expect her aunt to disagree at all.

Those words are for yourself.

Seeing Mrs. Xu coming in, Wu Guotai greeted her with a smile, "My daughter is here, come and sit down quickly. You take Ah Shao to change his clothes, be careful not to let him catch a cold."

The nanny who took care of Sun Shao stepped forward immediately, "Guo Tai, the son's underwear is roasting on the smoker cage, I will be careful."

"Go, you all go down, I have something to say to my cousin girl."

Xu plucked up her courage, "Auntie, do you like me?"

"If you position yourself as a grandniece, niece, I will always like you."

Xu closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "What if it's another identity?"

"It's impossible to change as long as I live."

After hearing Wu Guotai's straightforward answer, Mrs. Xu knew that she would have no chance to marry into the governor's mansion, sobbing, "Auntie, what's wrong with me?"

"Ninny, you are a smart person. Do you think your eldest cousin has a concubine? Why did your second cousin lose the prefect of Xindu County? Besides, you are their niece, and the people of Ashao's generation are the ones who are suitable for you to marry." Yes. If you must marry into the Sun family, I can choose among the sons of the Sun family and your generation."

Xu shook her head, tears streaming down her face.The beautiful pear blossoms are accompanied by rain, which is very unbearable.

No, I don't want to marry the son of Shao's generation.

Xu's tears rolled down her cheeks drop by drop, and she choked up for a while before she calmed down.

"Auntie sent me back to Aunt Aunt."

"Okay. You go back and pack your things."
