Chapter Eighty-Five: The Movement of the Hidden Gate (II)
Chapter Eighty-Five: The Movement of the Hidden Door (II)
I don't know what means Wei Cundong of Chengdu Mansion used, the earth-shattering changes in August to the Song family were actually like a breeze, although there were a little waves at the time, and the surface was calm afterwards.
At the end of August, in the scorching summer, Shu was sunny for several days.
Song Xinyou leaned on the bed, drowsy, still beating her spirits and talking to Sister-in-law Lan.
She knows the affairs of the Song family, but she is a very smart person, she tries to have fun every day, and tries not to worry about her father who is far away in Chengdu.
Perhaps from an outsider's point of view, this is a cold temperament, but she has her own charter.
Now at this critical time, if crying day and night leads to the death of the child, the Song family will really play.
The child is her treasure, and it is also the key to whether the Song family can continue and even prosper.
But her mood is always affected, and of course it may be that when she is five months pregnant, she is more sleepy than before these days.
But lying down all the time, it's not good for the body, so he pulls the sister-in-law Lan who has the best relationship with him among the servants, and chats from time to time.
Several maids stood aside, holding fresh fruits and cold porridge in their hands, and some of them carefully peeled off the skin of the fresh fruits and carefully fed them into the mouths of their masters.
Born in the Song family, Song Xinyou treats people gently on weekdays, but in terms of details, he is very demanding.
Those who served her knew that this eldest lady was very picky about eating, too salty, too light, too sweet and too spicy, and did not like to eat. On weekdays, fresh fruits are eaten.
Especially in the past few months, if you get some meat and fishy food, as soon as you eat it, you will vomit it out directly, which is very sad.
Although he has never beaten or scolded his subordinates because of the food, the food has been repeatedly returned, and this face is even more uncomfortable, which makes the chefs very frightened.
Eating fruits, Song Xinyou devoted himself to two things, thinking about the recent changes in Fuzhong.
"Sister-in-law Lan, what has the general been busy with during this time, have you heard of it?" Holding another fruit, Song Xinyou asked vaguely.
Sister-in-law Lan heard it clearly, and the old chrysanthemum face was confused: "This, the old slave doesn't know, but there is one thing, the old slave finds that something is not quite right." ”
"Oh? ”
"No. Sister-in-law Lan looked around, they were all the eldest lady's cronies, but she still deliberately lowered her voice and said, "Eldest lady, there have been a few times when the old slave has left the house, and I always feel that someone is following behind. ”
"Is there such a thing?" Song Xin paused for a moment and thought about it carefully: "This matter is really incomprehensible...... Sister-in-law Lan. ”
"The old slave is here. ”
"You don't pretend to know about this for the time being, but I want to see who did it and what the purpose is. The slender fingers clenched tightly and loosened: "However, when you have nothing to do, try not to go out of the mansion as much as possible." ”
"No. Although I don't know what the eldest lady is thinking, but after such an order, Sister-in-law Lan will respond.
"Little Peach, take the things over there. After a moment of silence, Song Xinyou said to a maid next to him.
The maid hurriedly stepped aside and fetched a small piece of the baby's clothes, but it was an unfinished one. Picking up this dress, Song Xinyou was very patient and continued to embroider flowers on it.
In the boudoir, there was silence for a while.
Jin Wuxi is oblique, there is a maid to light the lamp, the room is still bright, and the beauties under the lamp have a little more taste.
Song Xinyou carefully embroidered her small clothes, and some of the maids next to her fanned her, some hung her shoulders, and some were doing other things.
Sister-in-law Lan watched it on the side, and admired her eldest lady's kung fu in training people, when she first arrived at the Song family, many of the maids who accompanied the marriage were newly selected, all of them were beautiful, and she was worried at that time, and she always felt that it was somewhat unsafe to go to the Wang family like this.
Although when she was in the Song family, the maids and servants were very obedient to this eldest lady, but as a nursing mother, Sister-in-law Lan, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that the young lady was usually only seventeen or eighteen years old, so she naturally only felt that this was Song Han's thoughtfulness, and all the people she bought were loyal subordinates.
But I never thought that the eldest lady usually looks inconspicuous, but when she arrived at the Wang family, she was a good hand.
After a few months, she immediately found that although the house was not fully controlled, the servants in her courtyard were all honest and duty-bound, and their family style was very strict.
The new aunt also has rules, no one is allowed to bully the master at will, and the methods he prepared to use before are not very useful.
The eldest lady has a body and handed over the housekeeper's errand to the old lady, although Sister-in-law Lan doesn't think there is anything wrong, but she is still worried.
"Miss, the general went to the second lady, this period of time is a little more, although you have a body now, there are many inconveniences, but after ten months like this, it is inevitable that people will take advantage of the loopholes, or find an opportunity, please ask the general to come over often." As soon as Sister-in-law Lan said this, she immediately felt that the eldest lady's narrow eyes drooped slightly, as if she was not very happy.
Fortunately, she was used to seeing it, and knew that the eldest lady still had to give herself some face, so she didn't worry too much.
just continued: "Miss, during this time, the old slave saw that you were in a bad mood, but no matter what, you shouldn't be unable to get along with yourself, what you should do is still to be done." ”
Sister-in-law Lan is not too smart, but she is not stupid.
In the past half a month, for some reason, I always feel that the atmosphere in the mansion is not quite right.
Even with the eldest lady's mood a little repetitive, the general did not come to the hospital to rest for many days, and he didn't pay much attention to it.
It is not a good thing to let this thing go unchecked.
In the past, she felt that the eldest lady was beautiful and virtuous, and she was a big lady, and she had a good temperament, but after marrying into the Wang family, the young couple was in love, and her heart was very stable, and she felt that the eldest lady finally had a good home.
But during this period of time, the strange atmosphere made her always uneasy, for fear that this eldest lady who grew up watching herself be hurt by someone.
As the atmosphere in the house became more and more weird, others may not feel it, but these thoughts turned over and over in Sister-in-law Lan's mind, stirring her up a little bit, so that in less than a few days, the wrinkles on her face seemed to be getting more and more numerous.
Today, I used small talk to mention a few words about my own young lady, and as I spoke, my worries were even heavier, and I couldn't help muttering out the words in my heart: "Miss, although you have a body now, you are still young, and you will be successful in the future, so you can't be satisfied with the status quo." ”
Listening to the nurse's muttering to herself, Song Xinyou's heart warmed.
The affairs of the Song family are top secret in the house, except for the old lady, Zhao Wan, and Su'er, they don't know.
In order to avoid the subordinates from thinking wildly, and even having thoughts, which is not good for Song Xinyou and the fetus, Wang Hongyi even issued a strict order: "If any subordinate hears it, if he doesn't report it immediately, he will be killed immediately." ”
Now the festival is to make the military rule of law, the treatment is very good, even the servants have a case of money, but the rules are very harsh, in such things, if you commit a crime, there is only one punishment - to take the punishment to the house of the army, with water and fire sticks and keep beating the breath, just beat to death, there is no number of sticks, until death, when the dead are pulled out and buried.
Song Xinyou smiled and said soothingly: "Sister-in-law Lan is at ease, I still know this"
It's just that the atmosphere is tense and the mood is not good, this matter is related to the Song family, and I can't talk to her.
"Miss?"
"En?" Song Xinyou came back to his senses, rubbed the fabric in his hand, and said with a wry smile: "In this way, send someone to send a few snacks to the front." ”
"Okay, the old slave will go and prepare. Seeing that the eldest lady's mood had improved, Sister-in-law Lan was very happy.
General's Mansion, front, side hall, small study.
"General, Madame has ordered a few snacks to be delivered, which have been tested and used. A personal guard placed the snacks on the table and said carefully.
"Yes. Wang Hongyi didn't raise his head in response.
The servant didn't dare to say anything more, and hurriedly retreated.
After a while, Wang Hongyi raised his head from the pile of copywriting: "Dim sum, she is virtuous, hey"
Take one of the plates of dim sum in front of you, pick up a slice and put it in your mouth, it melts in your mouth, and it is delicious.
"It's the dim sum from the kitchen in her courtyard, and she is worthy of being the chef of the Song family, and her own chef still can't catch up. This taste made Wang Hongyi very satisfied.
After eating a few pieces, picking up the teacup, and taking a few sips, the feeling of emptiness in the stomach has been filled, and when I want to eat again, I stop.
"General, Mr. Song asks to see you. The guard outside said.
"Ask him to come in. ”
"No. Soon, Song Heng walked in from outside.
"Second uncle, why are you here?" Wang Hongyi hurriedly sat him down.
"General, it's the end of August now, and in more than ten days, it will be the day Wei Cundong said, but what progress is there?" Song Heng's face was very tired, and when he asked, he also brought out a trace of weakness.
"The letter has already been sent, Wei Cundong didn't say anything, and sent the messenger back, but there is no sign of change, we have decided to carry out the second plan, and the people sent have been lurking in Chengdu Mansion and are acting according to the original plan. Wang Hongyi said, paused, and said: "We have obtained a batch of new help, and I believe that together, things will be more certain." ”
Song Heng nodded, very grateful: "That's good, thanks to you this time, thanks to you." ”
The originally high-spirited face is obviously old. When Wang Hongyi saw this, he had to sigh in his heart.
"By the way, Ziye, this kid, is young and ignorant, and he is too impulsive, if there is something that is not thoughtful...... Please also ask the general for forgiveness"
The latter words, Song Heng said without a face.
During this time, he was also aware of what the child was doing, and although he was finally stopped and even locked up, he was still very uneasy.
This is not believing Wang Hongyi, I want to rescue him in private, don't look at the matter, but the nature is very serious, Wang Hongyi is the overlord of a place in the end, although he is a junior, he is a family after all, I only hope that the other party can look at the face of the eldest brother and Song Xinyou, and have more tolerance for Song Ziye.
"Second uncle, this matter is nothing, I am in a bad mood during this time, I also want to solve it as soon as possible to make her happy, now that she has a body, she should pay more attention to this aspect. ”
Wang Hongyi did not answer directly, but mentioned Song Xinyou.
Knowing what it meant, Song Heng said with a wry smile: "At this point, I will pay attention to the follow-up of the eldest brother, even if there is really a case, I will tell her when she gives birth to a child."
