Chapter 165: The old lady of the Song family

When that incident happened in the Song family, Mrs. Song, an old housewife who had turned into a human spirit, could tell that there was something wrong with Qiao Yuyan at just one glance, so she would naturally investigate afterward.

What's more, Song Jingshu is her biological grandson, and it is only a matter of time before she can find out.

Qiao Yuyan didn't hesitate, and immediately stood up from the chair and gave Mrs. Song a big salute in an upright manner.

When the old lady saw her granddaughter bending down, she knew that something else had happened that day. Then she saw some admiration on her old friend's face, so she suppressed her nervousness.

Looking only at the granddaughter on the ground, Qiao Yuyan's face was calm and generous, and her eyes were clear and sincere as she looked at the old lady of the Song family, "A lot of things happened that day, and it was not easy to publicize it. Yuyan has not thanked the Song family yet.

Thank you for your great kindness, Mrs. Tai, and please accept your words of honor today."

Mrs. Song nodded and helped her up with her own hands. The smile on her face became even more cordial, "I accept this gift from you not because I am kind to you, but because I treat you as my own junior."

I mean, I want to put your mind at ease. Don’t think of me, an old woman, as a hypocritical and arrogant person. To be serious, my Song family has an unshirkable responsibility for what happened that day. It’s my turn to tell you.

I'm sorry. Just because I have such a good relationship with your grandmother, you can't bear to apologize to a junior like you. It's better that you know what I mean."

The old lady was confused as she listened, and she quickly smiled and said, "Although I don't know what important thing happened, and you kept it from me, but looking at it like this, it seems to be a good thing."

Qiao Yuyan then told everything that happened that day, leaving out only the part about Wen Tingyuan, saying only that he met Song Jingshu and Wen Tingyuan.

As for what happened to Zhang Lun later, she just pretended not to know.

Looking at the way the old lady of the Song family nodded gently, it seemed that she didn't know that she and Wen Tingyuan knew each other.

The old lady who was still smiling just now changed her face when she heard this. She pulled Qiao Yuyan with reproach in her eyes, "You actually hid such a big thing from me and your mother. How could you be like this?"

How bold?!”

While he was talking, his eyes were looking back and forth at Qiao Yuyan, as if he wanted to see what kind of grievance she had suffered.

Qiao Yuyan quickly comforted her, "I didn't mean to deceive my grandmother. Firstly, the Fourth Young Master had already stated that he would handle it at this time. It concerned Sui Xibo and the Song family, and the granddaughter did not dare to yell at will. Secondly, what happened to the princess later

My grandson is really nervous about it, but I don’t feel comfortable following you along."

The old lady still looked worried, but the old lady of the Song family grabbed her and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, neither your eldest sister nor my fourth brother has the temper to act impulsively.

I'm worried about you! Don't you know now?"

The old lady wanted to say more, but she was blocked by the old lady of the Song family, "Did I come here today to ask you to punish Sister Yan? I just want to beat and punish my granddaughter, so you can wait until I leave.

.”

The old lady was so angry that she pinched her arm and said, "You... you have been suppressing me like this since you were a child. This child is so self-centered this time. Shouldn't you say a word or two?"

The two old ladies, both in their sixties, were bickering like little girls. Qiao Yuyan found it interesting and moved her heart.

No matter in her previous life or this life, it seems that she has never received such a friendship.

After being comforted by a few words from the old lady of the Song family, the old lady finally stopped worrying about what Qiao Yuyan didn't explain clearly, and asked instead, "Are you here today because of Zhang Lun's matter?"

The old lady of the Song family stopped her playfulness and nodded seriously, "Yes, and no."

She glanced at her grandparents and her grandson, then her eyes fell on the old lady's face. She frowned slightly and said, "You know, my great-grandfather stopped asking about the affairs of the court many years ago. He only focused on being busy with the affairs of the court.

In the house, His Majesty urged him several times, but he only said that he was not feeling well and could not go to court. Later, he was bedridden almost every day. He was relaxed about court affairs, but became more and more strict about family affairs, not only the matters of his family's children and grandchildren studying for the imperial examination.

, with clearly stated regulations, even all the big and small things at home have been checked."

The old lady nodded repeatedly, "Of course I know this, otherwise your family wouldn't be left in the cold."

"It's not that I was left out in the cold," the old lady of the Song family waved her hand, "My father-in-law worked as an editor at the Hanlin Academy in his early years, and he also served as a wine minister at the Imperial College for many years. To be honest, he has disciples and former officials all over the world. Although my family now has

No one is in the court, but every family in Beijing still treats us as a figure."

Mrs. Song's words were not meant to show off at all. After repeated visits to famous families in the capital, no one dared to look down on the Song family.

"What you don't know is that all the servants in our family are old people who have been with us for a long time. They have been in our family for three or four lifetimes. We rarely buy anything from outside. Moreover, we also listen to the teachings of our great master and do not dare to be extravagant.

, one should be simple, and there is no need for so many servants."

The old lady of the Song family brought the topic back to the right track, "I dare not say that my family is the most disciplined family in the capital, but there has never been any case of my family bullying others in the capital.

.”

"In the past, when my old man was here, he often praised your family and asked me to learn from you! Of course, there is no need to say this."

Mentioning the great master of the Song family, even the old lady of the Qiao family, her face was full of admiration.

When the old lady of the Song family said this, she sighed quietly, "If it weren't for your daughter discovering the tent hook, I wouldn't have known that there were many mistakes in the housekeeping that I have always been proud of."

"How do you say this?" Old Mrs. Qiao was startled and looked at her doubtfully.

Qiao Yuyan also looked serious and looked at the old lady of the Song family seriously.

I saw her eyes turning to the faces of her grandfather and grandson, and she sighed softly, "After all, we have been friends for so many years, and I am not afraid of being embarrassed in front of you and your granddaughter. Then after giving away the tent hook,

The maid who committed suicide was just the beginning. After such a thing happened, the elder man's wife felt that she could not interact with me. And in front of so many guests, her face as the head of the house naturally had no luster. Therefore, the next day

So he took out all the rosters of the family members, found two trustworthy women with clear minds and good abilities to assist them, then called the one in front of me over, and listed all the family members according to their houses.

After a haircut, whoever knows this has solved the problem."
