Chapter 247: Calculation (2)
The next day, it started to rain lightly.
Yuxi didn't need to say much about Zisu, and took the initiative to say, "Take my cloak." "It's cold in November, and it's even colder when it rains. At this time, the wind blowing on the body will make people shiver. She is in good health, but no matter how good her body is, she will catch a cold when she blows such a wind. After learning pharmacology, Yuxi paid more and more attention to this aspect.
Arriving at the main courtyard, Yuxi walked outside. Liu Yin came over and said in a low voice: "Girl, Madame didn't sleep well last night, and breakfast was useless. ”
Entering the house, Yuxi watched Qiu's face sitting on the couch with a gloomy face. Seeing Yuxi, he squeezed out a smile: "Xi'er is here!"
Yuxi said: "Mother, I just heard Liu Yin say that you haven't had breakfast yet?"
Qiu said, "I don't have an appetite. Thinking of yesterday's incident, she panicked in her heart, and she couldn't eat well and sleep.
Yuxi smiled: "Mother, isn't it just an aunt? If you don't like her, just detain her in the yard." "Yuxi really can't understand the Qiu family, with her current status in the Guogong Mansion, she killed Aunt Mei on the spot, and at most she was scolded by the old lady and the Guogong, and no one dared to really punish her. But she didn't use her advantages, but she was angry for an aunt, she couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep, she really didn't know how to say it.
Qiu Shi smiled bitterly: "You don't understand. "From the time she married to the Han family to the present, for more than 20 years, she has taken care of housekeeping, raising children, and being filial to her in-laws, and she has done her best in everything. She asked herself to be a qualified housewife and daughter-in-law. But now, she feels like a failure. It's just that her husband is not on her side, anyway, she has long lost her hopes. But she is really filial to the old lady, and she has not done anything bad over the years. But first there was Wen's, and now there is a beautiful aunt, Qiu's heart is unspeakably sad.
Yuxi was relieved, I was afraid that what the old lady said yesterday made my mother sad. Yuxi smiled: "It's good that my mother can think like this." Over the years, my mother has been busy and has not stopped. Now that the eldest brother and the second brother are also out of the picture, my mother doesn't need to work so hard. The trivial things in the mansion will be handed over to the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law. If the mother feels bored, she can invite someone into the house to talk, talk, sing, or listen to the play, which is lively and fun. Mother, what do you think?" Yuxi actually doesn't approve of Qiu's taking children. Although the child is more angry in the yard and makes the yard lively, it is actually very tiring to raise a child. Moreover, although Lu Xiu is pregnant, she may not be willing to give the child to the Qiu family to raise. Yuxi has never given birth to a child, but if you think about it, you know that no one wants to give their son to someone else to raise, even if this person is a mother-in-law. Moreover, to put it mildly, with the precedent of Han Jianye, Yuxi is really not at ease with Qiu's raising children.
After listening to this, Qiu's heart was much more relaxed. Therefore, it is better to say that it is better to have a daughter, and her daughter is intimate: "I haven't reached that age yet!"
Mother Li was very moved when she listened, and she also interjected at the moment, saying, "Madam, I think the fourth girl is very right. The eldest and second grandma are both prosperous and filial, and the eldest grandmother and the second grandmother are also smart and capable. It's time for Madame to put down and have a few days of relaxation. "What kind of life the Qiu family has had over the years, no one knows better than Mother Li.
Qiu and Yuxi said: "Your second sister-in-law and Jia are both pregnant!
Yuxi smiled, there is a good saying, raising a child is a hundred years old, and he is ninety-nine years old. There are very few who can really let go of their children's affairs, regardless of just enjoying their old age. However, with Yuxi's explanation, Qiu's expression eased a lot.
Seeing this, Li's mother immediately instructed the maid to bring the breakfast. Qiu ate an egg, a flower roll, and finally drank a bowl of chicken soup.
After breakfast, Qiu's drove Yuxi back: "I'm fine here, you can go with your business!" Yuxi's daily schedule is very tight, and Qiu's knows this.
Before Yuxi left, she heard the maid outside saying that Aunt Mei was coming. After a while, Aunt Mei was helped in by two maids. After entering the house, he pushed away the hands of the two maids, and walked forward with Nana and saluted: "Madame and the fourth girl are well." ”
Yuxi didn't wait for the Qiu clan to speak, and asked with a smile: "What's the matter? Didn't Aunt Mei learn the rules from her mother before entering the mansion? After a pause, he said: "Although an aunt doesn't need to be too particular, there must be etiquette rules, otherwise it will not be good if you collide with a guest who comes to the house one day." ”
When Aunt Mei heard this, she wanted to cry, so pitiful. However, this pitiful appearance is useful for men, but not only useless for women, but will be annoying in vain.
At this time, Grandpa Guo walked in.
Qiu didn't want Yuxi to get in touch with these bad things, and said, "Yuxi, you go back first!" Seeing Yuxi's reluctance, he said, "Don't worry, my mother will be fine." ”
It's all said and done, and it's not good if you don't leave. Yuxi saluted Grandpa Guo and went out. However, he left the shiso and let the shiso see the follow-up.
Not long after Yuxi returned to Taoranju, Shisu also returned. Zi Su and Yu Xi said: "Girl, after you left, the eldest lady quarreled with Grandpa Guo. ”
Yuxi stroked her forehead, Niang's combat power is really ...... Fortunately, she had other plans, and she didn't rely on the Qiu family to solve this problem: "Go and see if the eldest brother is in the mansion? If not, wait for the eldest brother to come back and let someone pass a message to me." ”
Zi Su hesitated a little and said, "Girl, it's not easy for the prince to meddle in this matter!" Although the prince is the real head of the Guogong Mansion, it is not easy for the son to take care of his father's house. Zisu felt that Yuxi's behavior was inappropriate.
Yuxi felt that Zisu had been saying stupid things recently: "My brain has not entered the water, how can I let my eldest brother take care of my father's concubine." "As far as the eldest brother's temperament is concerned, he won't take care of the affairs of the inner house.
Zi Su's face was full of questions: "Then what are you looking for the prince to do?" Usually Yuxi went to Han Jianming, but Zi Su never asked. But this time, the timing was too coincidental.
Yuxi smiled: "There are some questions I want to ask the eldest brother." "To solve it, solve the problem at its root. It's not fun to make a fuss.
Shiso was skeptical.
Coincidentally, Han Jianming was at home that day. In fact, when he came back last night, he heard from his entourage that Grandpa Guo had brought a woman with a big belly back, but Han Jianming didn't take this matter to heart. It's just a plaything, where you need to take it to heart.
Han Jianming knew that it was a little strange for Yuxi to find him, mainly because it would not be a trivial matter for Yuxi to find him. Yuxi will find a way to solve the small things by herself, and she will not bother Han Jianming. And recently, not only in the mansion, but also outside, Han Jianming couldn't figure out what Yuxi could do.
Yuxi arrived at the study and said very bluntly: "Big brother, do you know that my father took my aunt back to the house yesterday?"
Han Jianming nodded lightly and asked, "You are looking for me for this matter?"
Yuxi said: "Big brother definitely doesn't know, my father quarreled with my mother yesterday because of that aunt, and just now my father quarreled with my mother about this matter." ”
Han Jianming looked at Yuxi and asked, "Whatever you want to say, just say it directly." Han Jianming knew that Yuxi was definitely not looking for him, and it was definitely not as simple as just suing his father and mother for quarreling.
Yuxi didn't answer this, but said to herself: "I heard Mother Li say that when my mother got married, the Guogong Mansion couldn't make ends meet, and relied on selling shops and land properties to maintain the daily expenses of the mansion. Does Big Brother know this?"
Han Jianming nodded, as an actual family member, he naturally knew about these things.
Yuxi said: "Since the eldest brother knows what happened in the past, then he should also know the current family background of the Guogong Mansion?" Qiu is very good at financial management, and in the second year after she got married, the Guogong Mansion no longer sells shops and fields. After more than 20 years of operation, Qiu's has not only filled in the loopholes, but also purchased a lot of properties. Nowadays, in addition to the annual expenses, the government still has a lot of surpluses.
Grandpa Guo is a man who only knows where to make money when he spends money. As for Han Jingyan, that is a master who only enters but does not leave. It can be said that the current family background is all earned by the Qiu family. It is also because of this that Yuxi feels that the Qiu family is too sincere. It can be said that the Qiu family is the biggest hero of the Han family. But this hero was treated most unfairly.
Han Jianming probably knew what Yuxi was going to say: "Yuxi, one is a father and the other is a mother, what do you think I should do?" The son dealt with Lao Tzu, it was thunder and thunder.
Yuxi is not such a light and heavy person, she didn't let Han Jianming deal with Han Jingdong. said at the moment: "Big brother, my mother has done so much for this family, but she hasn't had a comfortable day. I won't talk about the anger I used to have, but I still have to be angry at such an age, and I feel really uncomfortable. Big brother, you don't know, my mother was so angry that she didn't sleep all night yesterday, and she couldn't eat breakfast. ”
Han Jianming was silent for a moment and then said, "If you have any ideas, it doesn't hurt to say it directly. "Han Jianming and Yuxi have similar thoughts, and they both feel that the Qiu family can't think about it. But it's just an aunt, where is it worth it when she can't eat or sleep. If it doesn't go well, it will be sent to Zhuangzi.
Yuxi said: "If you want your mother to live a truly comfortable life, you must fundamentally solve this problem." And this can only be done by the eldest brother. ”
Han Jianming's face remained unchanged and said, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse." "Han Jianming is also extremely filial, but he is too busy and rarely has time to accompany the Qiu family.
Yuxi's method is very simple: "Big brother, as long as you are knighted, my mother will be able to live a comfortable life." "Han Jianming is the lord of the country, and he is the righteous head of the Guogong Mansion. Those women can provoke the Duchess of the country, but they don't have the courage to provoke the father-in-law of the father-in-law.
Han Jianming's face changed slightly: "Do you know what you're talking about?"
Yuxi naturally knew what he was talking about: "Big brother, in the past 20 years, has my father done one thing for the family with the title of Grandpa Guo?" Big brother, you have been recruiting unsuitable talents all these years, and most of the reason is because of your father's bad reputation. But if it's the eldest brother, it's different. "Grandpa Guo and the prince of the Guogong Mansion, these are two concepts.
Seeing that Han Jianming was silent, Yuxi said: "Big brother, in fact, the title of Grandpa Guo is dispensable for my father. Anyway, he has been traveling all year round. Even if his father is not the grandfather of the country, he can still live like that. But this title is different for you. Once you become a knight, you will be the rightful head of the Guogong Mansion, as long as those people know your talents, how can they not take refuge in you? With enough helpers, where can you still worry about revitalizing the lintel of the Guogong Mansion. ”
Three outlines and five constants, that is something engraved in Han Jianming's bones. Therefore, Han Jianming was dissatisfied with Han Jingdong, and he never thought of crossing Han Jingdong to attack the lord. But Yuxi's words are indeed very reasonable. Han Jianming fell into deep thought.
