Although Chen Jingjing said it politely, how could Wen's sister-in-law refuse? What's more, Wen's sister-in-law didn't want to refuse at all. She only planned to use this matter to win the favor of Ximen Star Master and the Chen family, so that she could have a lifelong relationship.
Take care of it. So I was very happy and took over this matter.
Immediately, Ximen Qing's family was invited to Laiwang to report back. Laiwang told his daughter-in-law Song Huilian, and Song Huilian passed it on to Yueniang's maid, Yuxiao. Yuxiao hurriedly went to Ximen's eldest sister's room and returned to the palace in front of Yueniang.
Yueniang pondered for a moment and said to Yuxiao: "Step aside." After Yuxiao went out, Yueniang said to a person in the shadow in front of the bed: "Wang Ganniang, the Master of the Chen family sent Mrs. Wen who was a matchmaker back then.
Visiting my daughter, what should I do now?"
It turned out that after Sister Ximen got a "strange disease", Ximen Qing felt that the maids in the house had not experienced big things and were clumsy in serving the patients, so he got angry twice. Later, he interviewed
Wang Po, who runs the tea house, is the first neat guest in Qinghe County, so she asked Wu Dalang to come and invite her. Wang Po didn't want to come at first, but Wu Dalang was grateful for Ximen Qing's kindness and was eager to repay her kindness. In front of a room full of chattering ladies, Wu Dalang unexpectedly came.
He knelt down in front of Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang was now in a panic and hurriedly agreed. Then she closed the teahouse and entered Ximen Mansion, where she took care of Sister Ximen's affairs in front of the hospital bed.
Of course, this good show was all for outsiders to see. After Wang Po entered the Ximen Mansion, she became the general coordinator of the back house. She had already arranged everything in secret. At this time, she heard Yueniang's words with some worry.
, then sneered and said: "Don't worry, Madam. Speaking of Sister-in-law Wen, the old lady knows very well. This prostitute specializes in selling camels from the nine countries. Although she has a clever mouth to win over the mountains, her eyelids are
She is so shallow that she can't hold a copper coin. How many worlds has she seen? Madam, just let her come in to visit the doctor! When my old lady shows some little tricks, like this, this, this, this, just treat her as a prank.
!”
But I heard a "hee" sound. It turned out to be Sister Ximen who was on the hospital bed. She couldn't help laughing when she heard what Mrs. Wang said was interesting.
Yueniang also laughed, and immediately ordered the door to let Mrs. Wen in.
When Wen's sister-in-law entered the back house, the little maid Qiu Ju first took her to a wing room, where Yueniang was waiting. Wen's sister-in-law knelt down and kowtowed, and when she peeked at Yueniang, she saw that she was just in a daze.
After a while, he let out a sigh. Fortunately, there was a jade flute on the left and a small jade on the right, who kept talking beside him.
Xiaoyu saw that Sister Wen was lying on the ground, but her eyes were darting around like a sperm-stealing rat, and she felt very unwelcome to see her, so she pushed Yueniang gently: "
Madam, Sister-in-law Wen is here."
Yueniang was forced to act by the queen mother-in-law, and she was really at a loss for a moment. After being pushed by Xiaoyu, she had to reluctantly respond: "Sister-in-law Wen, are you here? A few years ago, you secured a matchmaker for my little girl, and I haven't taken care of it yet.
Thank you!"
When Sister-in-law Wen heard the word "thank you", she smiled all over her face and kowtowed again: "A few years ago, my little daughter-in-law received the favor from the Star Lord and the high official, just like receiving the favor from the wife."
Only then did Yueniang wake up from a dream: "Oh my, Sister-in-law Wen, please get up and talk!"
Sister-in-law Wen quickly got up and stood respectfully on her feet.
Yueniang was stunned for a long time, and then she said: "Oh! Sister-in-law Wen! I am very upset because of the troubles that my daughter is having. If there is anything rude, you have to understand me!"
Yueniang is an honest person and is not used to lying, so she has to tell Wen's sister-in-law to tell the truth. When she talks about her daughter's troubles, she is of course referring to Chen Jingji's desire to break off the engagement. If Wen's sister-in-law insists on misunderstanding
, that’s just her being smart, and has nothing to do with Yueniang at all.
Sister-in-law Wen's face was full of smiles: "Although my wife is my stepmother, I love her more than my own mother. When it comes to Qinghe County, who doesn't praise my wife for her kindheartedness? Today, my lady is ill, and my wife is...
It's really pitiful for all parents in the world to be anxious like this. But even though my wife is anxious, she still has to take care of her health. If something goes wrong in her body because of this, she will be worried about it when the lady is safe.
How can you feel sorry for yourself?"
Listening to Sister-in-law Wen's words as warm as charcoal fire in the cold weather, Yueniang felt guilty in her heart. Thinking that she was trying to deceive others because of their deep feelings, she blushed a little and muttered: "Sister-in-law Wen,
Today, I really feel sorry for myself... Sigh! I have pity on my poor daughter..."
When it came to the end, Yueniang really had nothing to say. In a hurry, she simply blamed everything on her poor daughter. Anyway, any daughter who meets a fiancé like Chen Jingyi will suffer in this life and not in the previous life.
build.
How could Mrs. Wen know the deeper meaning of Yueniang's words? She self-righteously consoled her: "Although Miss is occasionally unwell, the Star Master is the reincarnation of the Star, and with Madam taking such good care of her, she will definitely recover in a few days. That's it.
The young lady's unmarried husband is a very affectionate person. When he heard that the young lady was ill, he was embarrassed to come to visit, but he asked his wife to come and pay his respects to the young lady. Madam! I don't know how much cultivation the young lady in the house had in her previous life.
I am so blessed to have such a good son-in-law in this life who understands pain and warmth, and is considerate of people's hearts. He needs to be talented in literature, has good looks, needs money to get money, and needs to get power..."
The woman had received a reward from Chen Jingjing earlier. Now she opened her mouth as if she had spread honey. The smell that filled the room was so sweet that it sounded like she was here to protect a matchmaker rather than visiting a doctor. Yue Niang listened.
She praised Chen Jingjing so much that it was like a chopstick poking into her lungs. She was so angry that her cheeks were red and her face was smoky. She had long ago thrown away all her good feelings and guilt towards Mrs. Wen.
When Wen's sister-in-law took a break to recover, Yueniang interrupted her: "Wen's sister-in-law, so you are here to visit the doctor on behalf of the Chen family's uncle today?"
Only then did Sister-in-law Wen remember what was going on today and hurriedly smiled and said, "Exactly."
Yueniang then stood up and said, "Okay! In this case, I can't let my uncle Chen's fiery heart be cold. Sister-in-law Wen, come with me!" After saying that, Sister-in-law Wen didn't let her go out first.
Just leave.
Sister-in-law Wen looked around, always feeling that something was wrong, but she could vaguely detect what was wrong.
Before moving, I came to the lady's boudoir. Sister-in-law Wen took a closer look and saw two layers of extremely thick cotton curtains hanging on the door, and the windows were covered with quilts to make it airtight. She thought to herself:
: "Miss Ximen's disease must be invisible."
Yueniang held the cotton door curtain, nodded to Sister-in-law Wen, and said, "Sister-in-law Wen, it's rare for you to come here, but I'm going to make you suffer!" After saying that, she hurried into the house, Yuxiao,
Xiaoyu also followed in.
How could Sister-in-Law Wen understand the true meaning of Yueniang's words? She secretly laughed in her heart: "It's just a matter of getting through the door curtain, what's the point of suffering? As long as you have money to take it, you will really suffer some zero crimes, it's hard to say
Got it!"
Thinking in my mind, I lifted up the cotton door curtain and burrowed into the house like a mouse entering a hole. When I took the door curtain, I felt that my fingers felt heavy, and I kept thinking secretly about Amitabha: "After all, this is a rich man's house. The cotton in the door curtain is
, it’s actually thicker than the cotton wadding in ordinary people’s quilts, and I can’t even care about the words ‘it’s a pity’!”
My heart is not flat. I have entered the house early, but I feel that the charcoal copper stove inside is burning like the warm spring weather that day. It's just that there are a few lights and candles, and the shadows are blurry, which makes the people who just come in know what to do.
Can't see clearly either.
In the dark shadow, only Yueniang could be heard saying softly: "Sister-in-law Wen, my daughter is sleepy now and is sleeping soundly. Please move more gently so as not to disturb her!"
Sister-in-law Wen then said in a cat-like voice: "Then... the little daughter-in-law will quietly take a look at the look on the young lady's face, and talk to Mr. Chen when she goes out, so that the young master can feel more at ease."
Although Yueniang's face cannot be seen, one can tell from her voice that she has a troubled look on her face: "Well...it's better not to look at this look on her face? The light in this room is not good, so you can't see anything..."
Before Mrs. Wen came in, she received instructions from Chen Jingjing and told her to see Miss Ximen's face clearly. When someone entrusts her, she must be loyal. Although Mrs. Wen is just a little matchmaker,
This kind of integrity is still there. So he smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. To be honest with you, my wife's family is poor. The house is always dark and there is no light, so these eyes have long been developed. Now the young lady's
There are a few more candles lit in this incense room. To my little daughter-in-law, the light of a night pearl is just that."
Yueniang sighed silently, thinking that it was you who wanted to take the blame for Chen Jingjing. Don't blame me for not reminding you just now.
Sister-in-law Wen waited for a moment, and when she heard Yueniang stopped talking, she knew it was her mother's tacit approval, so she cheered up and pulled up her hair first.
When a woman puts her hair into a bun, she will naturally look around to see if there is a mirror. Even if the mirror is far away, seeing the mirror is a psychological comfort. But at this time, if you look at it, it may be on the wall or on the dressing table.
No matter how good it is, there are no mirrors at all.
Sister-in-law Wen immediately realized what she felt was wrong - it turned out that she had stayed in two rooms one after another and never saw a mirror!
How strange is it that there is no mirror in the room of such a big Ximen house! But it seems that it has nothing to do with her sister-in-law Wen. She is just here to visit the patient. As long as she sees Miss Ximen's withered complexion,
Keep this in mind, and when you go out and tell Mr. Chen, you will be thanked in exchange for a few more coins!
Sister-in-law Wen tiptoed forward and saw that Miss Ximen was covering her head with a brocade quilt and sleeping motionless. She thought to herself: "What a wealthy lady! But she doesn't look like she is sleeping like this!"
He stretched out his hand gently and unknowingly lifted up the brocade quilt and took a look - the scales on his face were impressive! This is exactly what he said:
The fragrance and beauty of the country disappeared, but the gods and ghostly faces came flying in! You want to know how Wen Sao'er reacted, and listen to the explanation in the next chapter.
