Chapter 1304 Provocation
Author: Loeva
Grandma Xu was not able to see Mrs. Xu as she wished.
Not to mention whether the people in Chengenhou Mansion are willing to let her see Mrs. Xu, it is objectively inconvenient for Mrs. Xu herself to see her. The reason is no other than that that day Mrs. Niu was invited to the door and listened to Mrs. Xu’s advice.
Adding fuel to the fire, but not giving Xu a satisfactory response, Yao continued to add fuel to the flames by saying derogatory words about the Xu family for a long time. Xu was about to vomit blood at that time. For the sake of face, she finally endured until Niu left.
Mrs. Xu had to vomit out the blood. The girls in the main room of Songfeng Hall panicked again.
But this time, with Mr. Yao presiding over the situation, the panicked and worried girls failed to spread the news quickly. Instead, they could only obey Mr. Yao's orders and keep the insiders of the matter within the scope of the main house.
, couldn't even get out of the room. Qin Song was still having fun with Xin Na's concubines, and the little girl and the mother-in-law who were doing rough things in the yard were doing their errands as usual. Except for the imperial doctor who came regularly to check on Mr. Xu, he noticed that
Mrs. Xu had become angry again recently, but she asked Mrs. Yao to explain that she had made a younger member of her parents' family angry again. Apart from raising no suspicion, the news that Mrs. Xu's condition had worsened this time did not even reach the ears of her eldest grandson Qin Jian and his wife.
inside.
Hongyan and the other eldest girls, who always sided with the Xu family, were not bribed by the Yao family, and did not have their hearts towards the male master, had originally intended to pass on the news secretly. Even if the Xu family was not allowed to know, they had to let the Xu family know at least.
The prince knew the truth, so he couldn't really let his second mistress make his mother-in-law mad to death?! However, how could the Yao family, who focused most of his energy on fighting against her mother-in-law, really let these big girls become so easily
What happened? A charge of "inadequate service to the master" was suppressed, but all the girls who were not obedient were ordered to be placed in solitary confinement. This would really make the sky and the earth incompetent, and their families would also be punished.
, lost the official, lost the official. The power in Songfeng Hall fell into the hands of Magpie, whom Yao had bribed a long time ago. Things were still in good order inside and outside the courtyard.
When Hongyan and others finally realized that Xu's situation was over, even if the eldest mistress Yu Xinlan was now in charge of Cheng'enhou Mansion, Yao could still kill them, and they had no other choice but to surrender. What Xu did
, there is something wrong in the first place, and the people who are waiting closely know it in their hearts. Even if they have been accustomed to being loyal to Xu for a long time, and have received favors from Xu in the past, as long as Yao is not really
To kill Mrs. Xu, it seems that the girls are not spineless. In the final analysis, they are all family members, their lives are not their own, and they cannot really let go of their loved ones.
Hongyan and others were released and returned to serve Mrs. Xu. Although Mrs. Xu was still very weak and would fall into coma from time to time, and occasionally vomited blood, the imperial doctor prescribed medicine as usual and the medicine was fed by the girls as usual.
After entering Mrs. Xu's mouth, it seemed that Mrs. Yao had not abused Mrs. Xu, so the girls also fell silent.
At this time, Mrs. Yao began to tell her husband and son the news about Mr. Xu's "illness" as lightly as possible.
The reason is very simple. Grandma Xu wanted to invite a few more noble people to Xu Zheng's wedding banquet. She had to ask Mrs. Xu to come forward to help and ask Princess Qin Hanzhen of Suning County. But Zhao Mo was not at home, and Qin Hanzhen was not there in the first place.
It was convenient to go out, let alone go alone to attend the wedding of a young man of similar age. Wouldn't it be unfair if someone gossiped? Qin Hanzhen politely declined the matter, and Xu did not hesitate to go out to beg for it in person, and said
He said some excessive words, almost risking his own life to threaten Qin Hanzhen. Qin Hanzhen was so angry that he had Mrs. Xu sent home. Mrs. Xu was unwilling to give in and asked Mrs. Niu to come over as a lobbyist.
, but was rejected by Niu again. She couldn't swallow it in one breath and vomited blood.
In general, Yao's statement was almost the same as the truth, with just a few minor additions. She also said: "If Mrs. Xu hadn't insisted on my wife agreeing to such an unreasonable request, my wife wouldn't have been so sick and confused.
Pushing the third girl to anger. How can there be any reason for elders to do this in the world? Maybe Grandma Xu told the madam some slanderous words. Otherwise, how could a shrewd person like the madam not think of the third girl?
There may be some taboos about attending Xu Zheng's wedding banquet, and you don't even want to lose the face of the elders, forcing the third girl to show your face?"
Regardless of whether Qin Zhonghai and Qin Jian really believed it at the time or not, the situation they learned from Niu and Qin Hanzhen was consistent with what Yao said. When they asked Hongyan and the others, they all told the same story.
That's it. It's hard for them to say that their old man is old and confused, or that Qin Hanzhen is unwilling to be accommodating. Anyway, Mrs. Xu has been favoring her parents' family regardless of reason for a day or two, and Qin Hanzhen has always been very reasonable, so it's wrong.
It must be Grandma Xu! The Xu family is also at fault! Qin Hanzhen and the Niu family are certainly not responsible. They went to the Suning County Prince's Mansion and the Yongjia Marquis Mansion to solemnly apologize, and at the same time complied with the Yao family's request and were absent from the Xu family.
Zheng's wedding banquet.
Originally, we should have said hello to the Xu family about this matter. However, the Yao family took over this job and did not let her daughter-in-law do it for her. Yao family also wanted to embarrass the Xu family, so she agreed.
Didn't do it at all. As a result, the Xu family's wedding banquet became a deserted scene. After finding out the news, Yao was secretly very happy, and even asked Yulan to take out a bottle of good wine that she had collected for many years, and then
After ordering some of their favorite side dishes, the master and servant hid in the room, chatting and laughing, and had a few drinks.
When Mrs. Xu came to the door, Mrs. Yao once again took over the task of entertaining guests. She didn't even let Mrs. Xu touch the door of Songfeng Hall.
She sneered and said to Grandma Xu: "My cousin actually has the nerve to come here? Because of your excessive request, our wife was so tired that her condition worsened and she vomited blood for several days! When you entered the door, you didn't say you cared about the elders.
Forget about your illness, you still have the nerve to blame us for not coming to your house to drink Xu Zheng’s wedding?! The gifts have already been sent, and the decency that should be given is not lacking. Our wife also gave a lot of gifts to the new grandnephew and daughter-in-law.
Jewelry, and even secretly subsidized the money for your wedding, just for fear of wronging your precious son. Isn’t that enough?! She is so sick, and our whole family is busy working to take care of the illness, so there is no leisure time to drink and have fun.
?!"
Grandma Xu was busy complaining that she was wronged. She really didn’t know that Mr. Xu fell ill again. She hurriedly said: "Why don’t you send a message to our family?! Even if you can’t come, you still have to say hello, right?
My aunt is sick, so she should send a message to our natal family!"
Yao sneered: "My wife is thinking about you all the time. She is thinking that Xu Zheng is going to get married. She can't delay the auspicious day and doesn't ask us to tell you. We are afraid of ruining your family's happiness and causing trouble for the new couple. We
What can I do? I originally planned to wait for the new daughter-in-law to return home in three days, and then go to the house to report the news. Now that you are here, it saves me trouble. "
This argument is not very tenable. However, Mrs. Xu is so famous for favoring her parents' family that Mrs. Xu did not dare to say that she would not order such a thing, so she had to shut up. Originally, she was full of anger and said
She was filled with resentment, but as a result, she had nowhere to vent her anger, and Grandma Xu couldn't help but feel depressed.
She couldn't help but ask again: "How did my aunt fall ill?"
"How dare you say that!" Ms. Yao suddenly raised her eyebrows, "Isn't it you who did the harm?! How did you tell our wife? You insisted on inviting several noble people to come and sit down for a banquet? Fortunately, the lady invited him first.
The third girl of Xifu, otherwise you will really lose your face in front of outsiders! Our wife has been ill for the past few months, and sometimes she loses her consciousness. She shouldn’t go out and walk around, but you still insist on forcing her to do so.
She will lose her old face."
Grandma Xu was a little confused: "What have you done?!"
"What did you do? Didn't you instigate Madam? Why are you pretending to be okay?!" Yao spat at her, "The third niece of Xifu is a married woman. When the man is not at home, she lives behind closed doors, even with other people.
She didn't even go to the royal palace's banquet. She only went to the palace and just went back to her parents' home. Xu Zheng, a young man, had almost proposed marriage to her in his early years. Even if he had nothing to do, he just wanted to avoid suspicion. What's more, now his niece and son-in-law are away from home.
?You still insist on the madam inviting the third niece to your home, are you afraid that others will not gossip about her?! The third niece is such a gentle and kind person, so she politely declined, and the madam became angry for some reason.
The third niece knew that she was a patient, so she didn't care about her and just sent her back to the house. If it had been anyone else, I'm afraid she would have hated your surname Xu!
Don't say that you don't know about this kind of thing? If you didn't insist on our wife doing it, how could she do such stupid things to her juniors?!"
"I really don't have one!" Grandma Xu was so frightened that her soul flew away, "It's unfair, it's unfair! I have said that I would like to ask my aunt to help invite some noble people to the wedding banquet. But what kind of noble people can our Xu family have?
The only one who could be moved was the Princess of Suning County. Isn't this because the Princess of Suning County was born in the Qin family and was related to the Xu family by marriage? My aunt made sure of it, so I didn't take it to heart, let alone
I thought there was something taboo about it. I thought it was a trivial matter, but how could I have thought that my aunt would say the wrong thing and offend the princess?! Even if I can’t invite anyone, it doesn’t matter. What’s wrong with my aunt?
How can you be so confused?!"
Yao sneered: "Now you are pretending to be innocent. You know exactly what happened. The words have been spoken, the deeds have been done, and the people who deserve to be offended have already been offended. Now the third niece is not
I'm sorry to see you Xu family members, but you'd better stay away. Our wife is so sick, and you don't have to talk to her much! You know that she is seriously ill, but you still instruct her to do shameless things.
Son. People outside know that she is sick and confused, so they can’t take it seriously. Those who don’t know, think that our Chengenhou Mansion really wants to trap even our own flesh and blood!"
Mrs. Yao kicked Mrs. Xu out of the house unceremoniously. Mrs. Xu didn’t even have a chance to ask about Mrs. Xu’s condition, let alone talk to her in front of the hospital bed. She left Chengenhou Mansion in despair.
, my heart was filled with the fear of offending the powerful, and at the same time, even more, there was resentment towards my aunt, Mrs. Xu.
Of course, she did not instruct Xu to do anything like forcing Suning County Princess Qin Hanzhen to attend the wedding banquet. This was all Xu's own idea. Now that she has offended someone, it is naturally Xu's fault.
How long will this lady-in-law be going to bring trouble to the Xu family?! Her son Xu Zheng has a bright future, is it really going to bring trouble to the Xu family? Is this backer a golden thigh, or is drinking a dove a poison to quench his thirst?
