carefully”“What do you mean ‘listen carefully’ You really think I’m senile” The old madam slammed her hands on the table, “Mu Qianqiu, when you’ve done wrong, you’ve done wrong. That girl is a good o...Though a great many people rushed into the hall, Tang's keen eyesight allowed her to immediately notice that Ye Wenyan was not among them.
So the sarcastic mode was turned on again: “Back in our hometown of Xiushan County, we have very strict rules and etiquette. It's absolutely not acceptable for younger generations to contradict their elders' words. If such a thing were to spread, it would be a laughingstock, and those who dared to talk back would surely be drowned in people's spittle.” 。I thought that people in our rural area understood the proper etiquette, so Kyoto's Rin'an should value it even more. Unexpectedly, things here in Rin'an are quite lax. Not only do they dare to contradict their elders, but they don't even come to greet their grandmother! 。Old Madam, you just asked me where your children went wrong. Where did they go wrong
Mu shi was speechless because Ye Wenyan didn't come, and she hadn't even thought of calling him over
In the past, Ye Wenyan would always come in the morning and evening, but she rarely came at night. The old lady even felt that it was better if Ye Wenyan didn't come at night. 。That way she could act her age and put them younger ones in their place, nobody would dare to contradict her, it would be so satisfying. 。But today, it was the grandmother who brought up this topic. The old madam's face immediately turned a bit uneasy. With a long sigh, she said, “If they don't want to come, then let them be. The children are all grown up now, and I can't control them anymore.” 。That child grew up beside her mother, as you can see. Her mother is the type who can argue with elders, so what kind of upbringing could she possibly give her children" Then he looked down again, "Come, all of you, sit down. Don't stand in the middle, it hurts your eyes to look at." 。"
Ye Lianmian ran to the old lady's legs and sat down beside her on the soft cushion, placing both hands on the old lady's knees.
The old lady patted her head gently, Night Lianlian was very pleased. 。But this action, when seen by others, took on a different meaning. Ye Chu Lian even felt that Second Sister seemed like a dog, just short of wagging its tail at the Matriarch. 。Xi Chun sat at the bottom of the second room. Since that incident in the twelfth lunar month, she had been injured and rather depressed for a while. 。Even when he was having ramen, he didn't talk much. He just sat in a corner, his presence was even lower than Liu Shi's. 。But now, perhaps having forgotten the pain, the active factors in the body are starting to wreak havoc again. As soon as I sit down, I start talking: "It's fine that we didn't follow rules before, after all, it was just family talking behind closed doors, and losing face was only embarrassing within our own home..." 。But now that people from home have arrived, Fourth Sister must at least give the old mistress some face. She can't let the old mistress be humiliated in front of her own family! "
As soon as Xi Chun spoke, Mu shi flew into a rage and retorted: "Shut your mouth! You, a mere concubine, have no right to speak here! Do you even remember who your so-called Fourth Sister was before She is your mistress! A maid who dared to disrespect her station and seduce the second master climbed up to the position of concubine. Now she has the audacity to say such things Don't you have any shame"
Mu shi genuinely felt anger whenever she saw Xi Chun. Sometimes, she wondered if there was a connection between Yan'er's incident and Xi Chun being taken in by the second master. Xi Chun was Yan'er's close attendant, could it be that she colluded with the second house on a daily basis, passing along information about the sixth prince from Yan'er's lips This might have given Ye Hongzhuang an opportunity
Xi Chun felt deeply wronged. She clutched her handkerchief, pretending to wipe away tears, but still retorted: "Madam Mu, why are you speaking like this I am a member of the second house. Even if I have done something wrong, there is our mistress in the second house who will discipline me. You, Madam Mu, are no longer the headmistress. Reaching out so far to discipline people from the second house, and doing so in front of our mistress, don't you think this is inappropriate This morning ceremony, Fourth Sister didn't give the old mistress face, and Madam Mu doesn't give our mistress face. What are you trying to do"
Although Xiao shi found Xi Chun annoying, she also understood that they should present a united front at this time. Besides, she hoped that Mu shi would never be able to raise her head in this household, and preferably disappear altogether.
Then she also sighed, looking at the old lady with a helpless expression. 。The old madam had a dark face throughout the whole time. Seeing Xiao shi looking over, she immediately said: "What are you looking at me for I can't do this master for you." 。"Who is Mu Qianqiu Has she ever looked at me" Mrs. Tang was surprised. "Sister, what do you mean She doesn't look at you Why You are the mother-in-law and she is the daughter-in-law. Shouldn't a daughter-in-law respect her mother-in-law Why wouldn't she look at you" Then she looked at Xichun, "You were a maidservant in Fourth Miss's room before And then you hooked up with the Second Master and got taken in as a concubine"Xichun was still wiping her tears, saying as she did so, "I originally served the Fourth Sister, but she wasn't kind to me, often punishing me..." 。The two elders saw this and, taking pity on the maidservant's wretched life, rescued her from the depths of misery. 。"
Mrs. Tang laughed immediately, and as she laughed, she said to Mrs. Mu, “I’ll speak my mind to you once more, you're right, this maid is truly unchaste, she has seduced the master" >>> 。Who in their right mind would let a maid be mistreated If you accept being bullied, how will you ever rise to become the mistress But don't feel sorry for your fourth young lady either, she raised these maids herself, so any bitter fruit she reaps is her own doing. 。“Who lets her be the mistress and not care about others!” Night Lianmian chimed in, “The mistress herself is a slut, expecting her to teach good maidservants” “Shut your mouth!” Mu Shi scolded again, “Don’t insult your sister like that!” Mu Shi remained silent. Night Lianmian became even angrier, “Where did I insult her My words are all facts! Don’t you remember what she did The sixth prince doesn’t like her at all, she shamelessly clings to him and even made grandpa plead for a marriage alliance on her behalf.” 。That's simply forcing a marriage, pressuring His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince to marry someone he doesn't like as his rightful wife! Aren't you all just after the fact that His Royal Highness is the legitimate heir You want to marry into his family as his empress in the future"
She grew increasingly agitated, even standing up from the ground, “His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince likes Hong Zhuang, it was you all who snatched her away! After snatching her, you put on a victim act and blamed Hong Zhuang, beat her, and even threw her into the snow to try and freeze her to death. What right do you have You clearly stole someone else's love, Hong Zhuang is the one His Royal Highness cares about! It's all your fault!”
Xiao cried out in anguish, Ye Lian Mian's words were true and false, but they sounded completely real to her ears. 。For a moment, I felt utterly wronged and buried my face in my hands, crying uncontrollably. 。Ye Lianmian continued, "Mu Qianqiu, the daughter you raised is a bitch. The maidservant she raised is also a bitch." 。"The master is consorting with the prince, and the maidservant is consorting with the old master. Isn't this a case of the upper beam being crooked and the lower beam being crooked What do you have to be wronged about" Night Lian Mian was like a madman, speaking without restraint, even calling out his biological mother's name directly, and saying such hurtful things... 。Mu Shi was so angry that her hands covered her chest and she trembled incessantly. Ye Qingmei was also furious and shouted at Ye Lianmian: "Shut up! Don't say any more! She is your mother, the one who brought you into this world, do you still have a shred of filial piety" Ye Lianmian, however, didn't care. "There's no need to use the fact that she gave birth to me as pressure on me. I still say the same thing, raising grace is greater than giving birth to grace. This life, I have been filial to my grandmother enough." 。"...then curled up again on the old lady's lap, continuing to act like a dog." 。Yè Qīngméi and Jì Māmām both held onto Mùshì, Yè Qīngméi looked at Jì Māmām with pleading eyes, hoping that she would stand up for her mother. 。But Granny wasn't paying attention, just supporting Madam Mu, not even acknowledging Ye Qingmei's words at all. 。Ye Qingmei sighed. She understood that in the face of Ye Lianmeng's words, even she was powerless. How could Granny Ji possibly intervene 。Old Madam Ye looked down at these people. The Xiao clan was crying, the Mu clan was panting, and Xi Chun squeezed over to comfort the Xiao clan. 。This scene made her even more disgusted with the Mu family. So she said, "It's true that Lianlian is like this. What kind of master teaches what kind of servant Since Xichun is from Sisi’s room, what she has become is Sisi's responsibility. " 。Otherwise, why haven't I seen maidservants in other courtyards flirting with their masters Why is it only the people in her household who have done this Is it that the mistress hasn't taught them well, or did they simply learn from her 。“
Seeing Mu Qianqiu glare at her again, the old lady snorted coldly, “Don’t glare at me, child. I’m your grandmother-in-law after all! You don't know your place and have no respect for seniority. Our Ye family still has some dignity>>> 。Mu Qianqiu, you have truly disappointed me. 。Old as I am, I remember clearly that when the marriage was being arranged, some people said that Miss Mu's personality was both fiery and wild, and she probably wasn't the kind to live a quiet life at home and be filial to her in-laws. 。You Mu family raised their children separately, girls were only taught how to wield swords and guns, they never learned literature or needlework. 。"What else could a girl like that do besides causing trouble and making her in-laws angry once she was brought into the family"
Tang Shi also chimed in: "I remember this incident. When the eldest daughter got engaged, it happened to be their father's birthday. The elder sister went back to Xiushan to celebrate their father's birthday and had even talked about this with us..." 。At that time, I thought to myself, even though your family are warriors, it's not like you would send women onto the battlefield. So finding a wife from such a background would be utterly useless. 。Alas, back then so many people advised you but you didn't listen. Now look at this, she only learns from the Mu family's ways, using coarse language to confront her mother-in-law and doesn't even properly raise a child. 。"
The old lady sighed again and again, "One wrong step leads to another. I disagreed at first, but alas, your brother-in-law had a few too many drinks and thought that since both families were composed of warriors, it was a match made in heaven. 。"What do you mean 'a match made in heaven' Your family is a high-ranking official's mansion, what about the Mu family They don't even have a general's position, this is called a match made in heaven Sigh, forget it, anyway we're already married, the bitterness can only be swallowed by myself." 。Look here, both morning and evening no one from the household comes to visit. Doesn't this prove that she doesn't even put you, an old lady, in her eyes! She's probably still sleeping inside right now! At that moment, Ye Lianmian suddenly chimed in again: "It's not a matter of failing to pay respects. She simply went out yesterday and hasn't returned home yet! She's out all night!"also laughed. 。Mrs. Mu frowned and glared at them, "What are you laughing at Did I ask the wrong question" Lian Shi quickly said, "Madam's question is right, all of it is right..." 。You always put th...
