Amnesty's daily life

"Yo, isn't this sister Pearl?"

"Is my sister here to deliver a message?"

"Our wife is still resting in the house."

Pearl paused slightly, smiled and looked at the maids surrounding her.Speaking of which, she had come to Rongxi Hall dozens of times, but it was the first time she came here since the second bedroom left the big room and moved in.From Pearl's point of view, although there are not many changes in general, the whole atmosphere of Rongxi Hall is completely different from before.

The reason why she said this was because Pearl had just entered Rongxi Hall when she was surrounded by several servant girls.And perhaps because the arrangements were not fully made, there were quite a few maids and wives who shuttled back and forth, everyone was smiling and not talking, and the young maids were even running around and laughing.At first glance, it seems to be extremely undignified, but when you think about it carefully, this kind of Rongxi hall makes people feel relaxed and comfortable, and it is not as dull and serious as when the second bedroom lived in the past.

"You guys are also looking at the good temper of the eldest lady, and she is so nonsense. Looking back, Zhang Momo didn't mention you!" Pearl scolded with a smile, "However, I let you guess, the old lady asked me to come Spread the word."

The maids were not afraid of Pearl, they were fighting with each other and talking back in a hurry.

"Nurse Zhang won't talk about us. When she cleaned up the warehouse two days ago, she found a lot of materials for us to make clothes!"

"That's right, Mammy just looks a little fierce, but she's actually quite nice."

"By the way, Mammy also said that although my wife is pregnant, she can't sleep all day. It's better to listen to us laughing and making trouble outside. My wife will feel better after listening."

Pearl pursed her lips and smiled, and waited for the little maids to stop talking, then she spread her hands helplessly and said: "I just said one thing, but it caused you so much talk for no reason. By the way, someone will go inside and help me pass the message." One sound, this old lady is still waiting for an answer in Rongqing Hall."

Not waiting for the little maids to make a fuss, another older maid came out, took a look at Pearl, and then smiled: "I heard you were making a fuss outside a long time ago." Why don't you invite Sister Pearl in? Come on, Sister Pearl, follow me, ignore these crazy girls, they are all spoiled."

"That's also the kindness of the eldest lady." Pearl smiled and followed.

When I walked to the inner room of the main hall, although Nala Shuxian had been resting in the room, she was not taking a nap, but just leaning on the couch, eating snacks one bite at a time.Seeing Pearl approaching, he just smiled at her, pointed to Xiudun beside him, and told her to sit down and answer.

"Meet the eldest lady."

Although strictly speaking, Zhuzhu only expressed his sincerity to Nanny Rong, and everyone in the Rongguo Mansion didn't know that Nanny Rong was the nanny brought by Nala Shuxian from her natal family, she was extremely loyal and highly valued by the master.Since Pearl has shown her attitude to Nanny Rong, she is naturally considered a member of the eldest family.Of course, this is only a matter in private, on the surface she is still the most respectable maid in front of Mother Jia.

"How's the old lady doing today? Is the medicine available? Did you say anything?" Nala Shuxian asked with a light smile, which seemed to be casual, but not entirely perfunctory. Caring about Jiamu, but suppressing her concern, she just stood by and paid attention.

Pearl got up, and sat sideways on the embroidered pier beside her. Hearing Nala Shuxian's questions, she carefully answered them one by one.After the polite exchange between you and me was over, she said what Mother Jia meant: "Madam, the old lady has been worried about Miss Min's marriage recently. After leaving the filial piety, I sent someone over to set the date. But it has been several months, except for a little bit of news when I was just filial piety, there was suddenly no news."

"Does the old lady want the elder to visit the Lin family?"

"It's unnecessary. One is that the Lin family left the capital for Yangzhou two years ago, and the other is that our family has too many things to do, and besides... Miss Min is a girl's family after all." Pearl The words are very euphemistic, but the meaning is very clear. Although Jia's mother is looking forward to Jia Min's marriage, she will never make fun of Rongguo Mansion's reputation.

Nala Shuxian took the jujube tea handed over by the maid, took a sip, held it in her hand in a trance, and said after a while, "I understand what the old lady means, but there is no way around this."

"Why did the eldest lady say that?" Pearl was taken aback. She didn't insist that La Shuxian come up with a solution immediately, but she never expected that Nala Shuxian would refuse it outright.Of course, she herself doesn't care, but she can guarantee that Mother Jia will be furious after hearing this.

"No one in our family knows what's going on at the other end of the Lin family. But no matter what, the marriage was arranged by the old man before his death, and he has all three matchmakers and six recruits. If it wasn't for the old man who couldn't hold on, it might be Sister Min. Married out a long time ago. However, although there is no movement in the Lin family now, it may not necessarily be bad news."

"So, wouldn't it be the one who backed down?" Pearl said very carefully, and immediately lowered her head as soon as she finished speaking, not daring to look at La Shuxian.

Fortunately, Nala Shuxian didn't mind, she just shook her head lightly: "The Lin family will never go back on their word, for three reasons. First of all, our family is the Duke's Mansion, even if it is different now, it is not a mere Lin family who can do it. Second, if three years ago, when the old master passed away, the Lin family proposed to withdraw from the marriage, it would be justifiable. After all, the brother of the Lin family is not young, and no one can blame him, but if Retire after three years, but you have formed a deadly enmity with our family, even ordinary people would not do this. The third..."

Pearl couldn't help raising her eyes to take a sneak peek, seeing that La Shuxian's face was slightly gloomy, she hurriedly lowered her head again.

Nala Shuxian pondered for a long time, but she was thinking about the day.If she hadn't replaced the original owner, what would happen next?Because they are of the same generation, Jia Min doesn't need to keep filial piety for his elder sister-in-law, but it's one thing not to keep filial piety, and it's another thing to have a funeral in the family.Especially the original Zhang's status is special, if she dies, the Rongguo Mansion will not be able to hold weddings for at least a year.In other words, Jia Min's marriage was difficult, not because of her.

Thinking of this, Nala Shuxian was slightly relieved.To be honest, if possible, she really didn't want to be contaminated with too much karma.Of course, she will definitely repay the debt owed to the original owner, but she will not be contaminated by other things, after all, she was once an erratic lonely soul.

"Thirdly, sometimes there must be something in fate, and there is always time in fate. Don't force it. If sister Min's fate should be fatal, then she should simply accept it."

Pearl didn't expect that Nala Shuxian would say this, she was speechless at the moment, and after a while, she looked up at Nala Shuxian with a wry smile: "Madam, this old lady..."

"I can't understand what the old lady means. She just wants to marry off Sister Min in a good manner. But as Sister Min's natal family, it's impossible to do this, so we can't let go of our dignity Go beg the Lin family, and secondly, even if you really beg, you will lose face completely." Nala Shuxian paused for a moment, and looked at Pearl with a smile, "I remember, the Lin family was originally from a meritorious family, but in his life he lost his title That’s all. The brother of the Lin family was studying with a teacher back then, and his husband and my father were quite friendly, so that’s what the old lady came up with, right?”

Hearing this, Pearl just blushed and bowed her head in silence.

Then La Shuxian wouldn't embarrass a maid, after all, she was just a messenger, so she simply spread the word out and said: "The old lady wants to marry Sister Min in a beautiful way, but she doesn't want to lose face, so she made up her mind. Hit the other side of my natal family. But why doesn't she want to think about it, the relationship between the two families is so close, wouldn't it make the Lin family think of our Rongguo Mansion if my father came forward? In my opinion, let's let this matter go. If you will retire, it is better to wait for the good news than to add to the snake."

"Yes." Pearl agreed softly, but in her heart she was thinking about how to respond to Jiamu's words more tactfully.

At this stall, La Shuxian said again: "It happens that I'm fine at the moment, so I might as well go and see the old lady."

<<

Honor Hall.

When she heard that Nala Shuxian had come with Pearl, Jia's mother breathed a sigh of relief.In fact, she didn't have any hope at all. After all, the Zhang family didn't have a deep friendship with the Lin family. It's just that the Zhang family got to know a lot of literati and scholars. When it comes to such a thing, the possibility of declining it is still extremely high.

There must be another reason why Mother Jia insisted on letting Pearl go this trip, knowing that there was little hope.

"Shuxian, did you agree? Well, you just went to your mother's house once, and it's not appropriate to make another trip in such a hurry. Just in time, it will be She'er's birthday in a few days. Because of keeping filial piety in the past year, there was no big deal, so please invite your natal brothers and sisters-in-law over this year."

"No, old lady, you have misunderstood. I came here specially to tell you that it is more appropriate to wait and see what happens with Sister Min." Nala Shuxian sat on the chair on the lower left of Jia Mu, With a smile on her face, she said, "I'm not afraid that Zhuzhu won't understand and offend you, old lady, so I came here to explain myself."

"What do you mean by that?" Mother Jia's expression changed immediately, even though she knew that there was little hope for this matter, she was still furious when she heard La Shuxian's undisguised contempt.

"What I mean is, old lady, you should have a plan? Ordinarily, you were born as the daughter of the Marquis Mansion, and you are the wife of a country. You shouldn't be unable to guess the outcome of this matter. The reason why you let Pearl go to me Apart from luck, I'm afraid there are other plans?" Nala Shuxian smiled very softly, but there was a strong disdain in her words, although she didn't know what Jia Mu's back move was, but like this It is really naive to deliberately make a request that cannot be granted, and then use it to raise other things.
