As soon as Chun Ya finished speaking, Mrs. Su's expression changed slightly.
Grandma Du frowned and said, "What are you talking about, girl? How did you know that your aunt's family has built a big house in the county?"
I have to say that Grandma Du's words revealed the feelings of Mrs. Su and others.
After all, I just bought a big house, and I have never told anyone except my own family.
"My mother said it." Chun Ya said, "My mother went to my grandma's house yesterday and heard what my uncle said."
Old Mrs. Su asked calmly: "How did your uncle know?"
Chun Ya shook her head, "I don't know about that."
Grandma Du said dissatisfied: "How can your uncle be accurate? He spends all day fighting cocks and walking dogs. He doesn't do anything serious. Don't listen to what your uncle says!"
Chun Ya pouted and said, "If my uncle is talking nonsense, I can just ask my aunt to find out."
After saying that, he looked at Mrs. Su eagerly, "Aunt, did your family buy a big house in the county?"
Mrs. Su smiled and said: "It's not a big house, I just bought a small yard."
"Even the small courtyard is a hundred times better than the ones in the countryside." Chun Ya said with surprise: "Aunt, did my fifth cousin study in the county, so I bought it specially for my cousin?"
"That's not true." Old Mrs. Su said lightly: "It's for your cousin."
Chun Ya was stunned.
"Why, why are you buying it for your cousin?"
Chun Ya said, looking at the little sugar baby with a look of disbelief.
She is just a little girl of a few years old, why should she buy a house now?
Could it be used as a dowry in the future?
"After all, your cousin is the owner of the village. It is appropriate to use the money from the reward to buy her a small courtyard." Old Mrs. Su said.
Chunya blinked and then said with a smile: "My aunt is very considerate. My cousin is a person of status and will be indispensable in the future. I want to move around with wealthy families in the county and buy a house in the county. Isn't it convenient?"
Mrs. Su glanced at Chunya but said nothing.
Grandma Du smiled and said, "That's right."
After saying that, I didn't know what I thought of and sighed.
Immediately, he said: "Dahu, go and do your work. Chunya, follow your cousin out to see if there is any work to do... Don't eat the stone, take your cousin out to play..."
Grandma Du sent everyone out of the room, and then held Old Mrs. Su's hand with tears in her eyes.
"Miss, these years have been hard on you. You were obviously a noble person, but you have turned into a country woman. Even your children..."
Grandma Du choked up and couldn't speak any more.
"Nanny, look at what you said, what's the point of being bitter? As long as you don't feel it's bitter, then it's not bitter." Old Mrs. Su said.
After saying that, he took out the handkerchief and wiped Grandma Du's tears.
"Having said that, when I think about the white-eyed wolves in the Duke's mansion, they are not worth it for the Duke and his wife... The Duke and his wife left a huge family fortune, but in the end they benefited others in vain.
"Grandma Du shed tears and said: "If this is not the case, how can a small courtyard in a small county be worthy of the status of a young lady? I must buy a big house for the young lady in the capital and keep it as a dowry in the future..."
The more Grandma Du talked, the more confused she became.
Compared with the huge family property of Guogong Mansion, the small house in the county is simply not worth mentioning.
Even if she is a wet nurse, she can't see it in her eyes.
After listening to Grandma Du's words, Old Mrs. Su had to persuade her: "Nanny, although my life has been relatively poor these years, your son-in-law is a good person, the children are also filial, and there is no mess in the house. My daughter is even happier."
Comfortable.”
Having said this, he paused and then said: "If I had stayed in the capital back then, I would not have been as comfortable as I am now..."
As Mrs. Su spoke, her thoughts seemed to drift away for a moment.
Grandma Du said bitterly: "It's only because the Second Master and his family are so vicious that they even tried to kill the young lady in order to steal her marriage and family property."
"Nanny, actually I have always felt that my second uncle may not have known about that matter." Mrs. Su thought for a while and said, "After all, my second uncle was not in the capital at the time, and he treated me very well."
"Miss, you are so kind-hearted." Grandma Du shook her head and said, "Be aware that you know people but don't know their hearts. The Second Madam also kept saying that she treats you as her biological daughter. But what happened? For the sake of her daughter's future, she still
Aren’t you ruthless and want to kill you?”
After hearing what Grandma Du said, Mrs. Su's face showed sadness for a moment.
Then he smiled again, "Nanny, to tell you the truth, sometimes I even feel grateful for that incident. Otherwise, how could I marry your son-in-law and live such a comfortable life? You are not
I don’t know, the backyards of wealthy families are the most likely to harbor dirt and evil, so how can we live as comfortable as we do now?”
When Grandma Du heard Mrs. Su say this, she nodded, "That's true."
Then, he slapped his forehead.
Then he said: "Look at me, I'm so confused. I came here this time because I heard that there were family members of the British government passing through Fengqi County..."
"Not only that, some people also went to my natal village to find out if there was someone who had worked as a wet nurse for a wealthy family in the capital. I kept thinking in my heart, could it be that someone from the British government knew that the lady was not dead and found her?
"
"Nanny, I have already met people from the British government." Mrs. Su said calmly.
Grandma Du was surprised, "Miss, who did you meet? They didn't do anything to you, did they?"
"It's Mother Wang who is next to my second aunt." Old Mrs. Su said, "She didn't recognize me."
Grandma Du breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, God bless you. By the way, miss, you don't know, I heard people say that the British government is now going to be extinct..."
Old Mrs. Su was startled.
Her second aunt had given birth to several sons, how could she die?
Grandma Du's face revealed a look of relief, and she said: "I heard that all the young masters in the British government gave birth to daughters. Only the third young mistress gave birth to a son, but little did he know that he was frail since he was a child and would not live a long life.
The appearance..."
"Miss, do you think this is retribution? Even if they robbed the property that should have belonged to you, no one inherited it in the end..."
Mrs. Su, "..."
This actually made her don't know what to say.
"Okay, nanny, let's not talk about this anymore." Old Mrs. Su said, "You must stay a few days longer when you come this time."
"With so many things going on at home, where can I live?" Grandma Du said: "The boss's wife has always been careless. If I don't go back and take care of her, she will rebel."
Mrs. Su couldn't get involved in the Du family's housework.
However, I thought of Chunya.
"Nanny, has Chunya decided to get married?" Old Mrs. Su asked.
After hearing this, Grandma Du showed a trace of sadness on her face.
"No, this child is just like her mother. She is very ambitious and always wants to marry into a rich family. Don't you know that the life of a rich family is so good? And her mother has been pampering her, but it is a matter of marriage.
It’s getting harder and harder…”
When Grandma Du said this, she shook her head.
It is said that marrying a virtuous wife is not false at all.
My family has been in a state of chaos just because I married a short-sighted daughter-in-law.
After hearing what Grandma Du said, Mrs. Su's eyes flashed and she didn't ask any more questions.
