Chapter 257: A Bloody Case Caused by a Duck (1)
In the spring of March, all things recover, the willows are green and the flowers are red, the warblers are singing and dancing, and the earth is a vibrant scene.
Yuxi looked at the birds chirping happily in the trees and said, "If it's on Zhuangzi, you can go kite flying now." β
Zisu stopped sighing for a while, and said, "Girl, my uncle is going to end in three days, why do you have to express it?" The so-called expression is to go to the mountain to worship the Bodhisattva or recite sutras at home. Whether it is useful or not, it is also a table of concern for the fiancΓ©.
Yuxi corrected Zisu's mistake: "I haven't married yet, it's too early to call my uncle." "Although the marriage is scheduled for May, there are only more than two months left, but in the end they have not married. Now the maid next to me is called Aunt Chen Ran, which feels weird.
Shisu said, "That's what I said in private. Girl, don't you really want to fly a kite?"
Yuxi looked angry and ruined when she saw Zisu, and she stopped teasing her, and said with a smile: "Mother said, the day after tomorrow, she will take me to the mountain to worship Manjushri Bodhisattva." In fact, Yuxi is not worried at all, even if she doesn't worship the Bodhisattva Chen Ran, she will definitely be able to pass the exam. However, as Shiso said, the appearance still has to be done. Otherwise, the people of the Chen family thought that she didn't take Chen Ran seriously!
At this time, Xun Tao hurriedly ran over from outside and said, "Girl, it's not good, there's a fight in the kitchen?"
Yuxi felt that this matter was very rare, and said, "What's the matter, who is fighting with whom?" The Qiu clan is not too strict, but the Ye clan's housekeeper is more strict. It's the first time I've ever had a fight. But according to the rules, it is to be punished severely.
Xun Tao said: "Girl, it's the third lady's personal maid Chunlan who got into a fight with Chef Fang, as if it was for a duck." If there is more, the slave and the maid will not know. β
It's even rarer to fight for a duck. Yuxi smiled and said, "Go to the main courtyard to see what's going on?"
When he arrived at the main courtyard, Yuxi knew what was going on. It turned out that Wen had always wanted to eat Cordyceps duck soup, but the kitchen kept saying no. As a result, when Chunlan went to the study today, she saw winter melon and duck soup stewed on the small stove.
Chunlan was indignant and scolded Chef Fang. Chef Fang is not easy to mess with, the two quarreled, and in the end, the quarrel got out of control and the fight started.
Chef Fang knelt on the ground and said with a red and swollen face: "Madam, the slave maid said that the duck soup was made for Aunt Jia, but this girl has to be served to the third lady to drink." When I stopped, she scolded and poured the duck soup on the stove. The slave was angry, so she started a fight with her. β
When Yuxi heard this, she frowned, she admitted her mistake so easily, this is not like Chef Fang's style. It should be said that it is not the style of the people of the Guogong Mansion. Generally, when something happens, these people will desperately push the fault on others.
Chunlan not only became a pig's face, but the corners of her mouth also overflowed with blood, and she said angrily at the moment: "My wife said more than ten days ago that she wanted to drink Cordyceps and duck soup, and your kitchen has always said that you can't find it. Where did the ducks come from? The slave and maid also complained about my wife, so they quarreled with her. I didn't push the soup down, it was Chef Fang herself who accidentally knocked it down. β
Yuxi leaned back in her chair and smiled when she heard this. Aunt Jia's belly child, if it is a boy, it is the heir of the future Guogong Mansion. Wen's face is so big that she thinks the child in her belly is more valuable than Aunt Jia's child?
Hearing this, Qiu Shi threw the teacup on the table on the ground and said coldly, "I don't know that the child in Wen's belly is actually more expensive than my grandson?"
Chunlan's face turned pale.
Yuxi saw the Qiu clan standing up, looking like he was going to quarrel, and quickly stopped: "Mother, if you have something to say, don't be angry." He turned to Li's mother and said, "Fighting in the mansion has a bad impact, and the two of them will each deduct a year's monthly money." β
A year's monthly money is gone, which is equivalent to cutting the flesh of two people. Chef Fang was okay, although her heart hurt, she also knew the status of the fourth girl in the mansion, and she didn't dare to object when she heard this. Chunlan didn't have so many concerns, and when she heard that she was going to deduct her monthly money for a year, she immediately muttered that she was Wen's maid, and Yuxi had no right to dispose of her.
Yuxi sneered: "When you arrive at the Han family, you are the slave of the Han family, as a minion, you dare to contradict the master and drag it down to slap your mouth." β
As soon as these words fell, Mother Li walked up and covered Chunlan's mouth and dragged her out. Chunlan struggled, and Liu Yin saw that she couldn't do it and hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Chef Fang was so frightened that she lowered her head to the ground. Fortunately, she didn't refute just now, otherwise her fate would definitely not be much better than Chunlan's.
Qiu Shi waved his hand and said, "Go down." After everyone left, Qiu said, "What are you doing to meddle in this? β
Yuxi poured a cup of tea for Qiu's and said with a smile: "No one will talk nonsense. Mother doesn't need to be angry, it's just a trivial matter. β
Qiu Shi took the tea, drank half a cup, put down the teacup and said, "I want to eat ginseng and abalone today, shark fin bird's nest tomorrow, and Cordyceps duck and hen the day after tomorrow." Who is pregnant with her tossing so much?" When she was pregnant with Jianming, she didn't toss so much.
Yuxi said with a smile: "It's not that my mother doesn't know that Wen is a shallow eyelid, so why bother with her." Seeing Qiu's bored look, he said, "Ruoniang is really impatient, but it's actually very easy to deal with." β
Qiu straightened up and said, "You say, what's the way?"
Yuxi's method is very simple: "Divide the family." Now that the Guogong Mansion is the eldest brother in charge, the mother has enough reasons to propose a separation. "Yuxi prefers the method of once and for all, either not say anything, or solve the matter fundamentally.
Qiu's heart jumped, and he shook his head and said, "Your grandmother won't agree. "Splitting up the family can really solve the problem, even if the Wen family wants to eat dragon liver and phoenix gall, it has nothing to do with her. It's just that it is impossible for the old lady to agree to the separation.
Yuxi said with a smile: "Mother, it doesn't matter if grandmother doesn't agree to split the family, as long as the third uncle wants to split the family." "The most important thing for people who take the career is reputation, as long as the people in the mansion say a few words about Han Jingyan's nephew, Han Jingyan listened to it and took the initiative to split up.
Qiu Shi was a little skeptical about this method: "Is it really useful?"
Yuxi said with a smile: "This time Chunlan and Chef Fang Niang's fight can be used as an introduction. As for whether it works or not, you'll know after trying it. β
Qiu Shi touched Yuxi's head and said, "Yuxi, you can help your mother solve problems, and I am very happy and relieved." But when you get to the Chen family, you can't come out of anything, you know?" With her in the Han family, it doesn't matter what Yuxi does. But in the Chen family, it is different, Yuxi married the second son and daughter-in-law, and the most important thing for the second daughter-in-law is to abide by her duty. If you pinch too much, your mother-in-law won't like it. There will be no harmony between the concubines.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Mother doesn't have to worry about me. "When I arrived at Chen's house, I managed my own one-third of an acre of land. When Chen Ran has stayed in the Hanlin Academy for three years, he will go abroad with Chen Ran at that time, and he will not have to be locked up in the house all year round.
Qiu nodded and said, "You have always acted in a measured manner, so I won't say more." "If she could, she really wanted to keep Yuxi by her side. It's just that the girl will always get married when she reaches her age. Although I am reluctant, there will be such a day.
After setting off Chunlan, Li's mother asked her to send her back to Biteng Temple. When Wen saw Chunlan, who was not human, he fainted in fright on the spot.
The mother-in-law beside Wen's side was sent by the old lady, and when she saw this, she felt bad, so she quickly ordered the little maid: "Quickly let someone go and ask for a doctor." β
The doctor came over, gave Wen Shi a pulse and said: "The third lady was surprised and moved the fetal gas, but fortunately, she was not strict, so she took two patches of medicine to stabilize the fetus first." β
The old lady was annoyed when she found out, and said, "What the hell is going on?
Luo's mother had already inquired about the causes and consequences, and immediately told the old lady everything word for word: "I didn't expect the third lady to have fetal gas?"
The old lady said with an ugly face: "The four girls are really getting more and more bold? The maids around the aunt dare to fight? What else does she dare not do? Do you think I dare not touch her when she wants to get married?"
Luo's mother said: "Old lady, originally the four girls fined them a year's monthly money, but Chunlan said that she was the maid of the third lady, and the fourth girl was not qualified to deal with her, which annoyed the four girls." "Mother Luo, this is taking eye medicine. First, he said that the Wen family did not regard himself as a member of the Han family, and second, he said that Chunlan was looking for a fight. A maid dared to choke with her master, not looking for something to fight.
The old lady also knew that Mother Luo was right, but Yuxi's behavior also made her very uncomfortable: "You go to Tao Ranju in person, tell the girl, and ask her to copy the Heart Sutra fifty times." "Yuxi is about to get married, and house arrest and beating and scolding will not work, so this is the only way to go.
Mother Luo nodded and asked, "Old lady, the third master came back at night to know about this matter, and it is estimated that there will be another turmoil." "The third master is looking forward to the child in Wen's belly, if he knows that the fourth girl caused the third lady to have fetal gas, I am afraid that he will not be good.
The old lady also felt a headache, Yuxi and her youngest son were enemies in the previous life, otherwise why would the father and daughter come to such a point.
Luo's mother was very worried, and said: "Old lady, the third lady will definitely sue the master, and when the third master is angry, he will beat the fourth girl, so what should I do?"
The old lady said, "Yan'er won't be so unmeasured. "There will definitely be anger, but if you want to say that you will hit Yuxi, it will definitely not.
Mother Luo didn't dare to say more when she saw this, there were some things to say, but it had to be done in moderation, if it was too late, she would be rejected by the old lady.
ps: The fourth more is delivered.
