"Young Mistress is awake, wait a minute and I'll fetch water."
Usually, the water for washing is prepared early in the morning, but it must be something wrong at this late hour.
Yan Ge grabbed An Xiang's sleeve: "Your face is red, where did you go?"
When Anxiang saw Yange asking, she didn't hide it, and told Yange what happened this morning like a bean.
It turned out that Cao Ziqiang, the second young master of the Cao family, got drunk last night and said he wanted to go out to relieve himself, but somehow he ran into Yange's yard and fell into the well behind the yard.
Fortunately, the servant beside Cao Ziqiang found out that he had been rescued early, but even so, Cao Zijian, who was sent to the hospital, is still not awake yet.
Before dawn, Mr. Cao asked someone to fill the well.
An Xiang said: "I went out early in the morning, and everyone asked me what was going on, and I was also curious. Why did the second young master fall into the well in our backyard? It's all because I slept so hard last night that I didn't hear it. Be quiet, or you can watch the excitement."
This handwriting must have been done by Cao Zixu.
Even the well has been filled. Is it because she is afraid that she will jump into the well when she is done
An Xiang bluffed and said so much, and finally leaned in front of Yan Ge and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, young lady, this matter has nothing to do with you. , deserved to fall into the well."
Yan Ge smiled and poked her forehead: "Don't talk nonsense."
An Xiang immediately slapped her lips a few times and said with a smile: "I'll just say it in front of the eldest young mistress, and I definitely won't say it in front of others."
After washing up, Yan Ge went to the Upper Court.
Although the Cao family has declined, such things as asking for peace every day have not.
Usually, Mrs. Cao had to smoke the pot early in the morning, but when Yan Ge went today, Mrs. Cao didn't smoke.
She was half lying on the kang, staring at Yange who entered the door with a pair of lifeless eyes.
There were a few aunts and wives of Mr. Cao in the room, probably because of Cao Zijian falling into a well in Yange's yard. When everyone saw Yange enter the door, they winked at each other and looked at Yange gloatingly.
Most of these aunts and wives were born in the land of flowers and willows, and they are still very jealous of the young lady of the new era like the host, and there is a lot of irony in the open and secret.
Yan Ge invited Ann, and seeing no one handed her a stool, she said, "Mom, I'll go down first if there's nothing else to do."
The old lady Cao snorted coldly: "The housekeeper used to be busy all day long, I can understand, but now you don't care about the house, and you still avoid me, do you despise me as a bad old woman who can't get in your eyes? ?”
Yan Ge looked at her with a smile: "Mother, I'm your daughter-in-law, so it doesn't matter if you get in my eyes or not."
Mrs. Cao threw the teapot on the kang table at Yange: "You bastard, you have turned the world upside down, and let you be the housekeeper. You are kind, and you have emptied our Cao family..."
Old lady Cao's anger was more because of her second son falling into the well in Yange's backyard.
When others heard this kind of thing, they must think that sister-in-law and brother-in-law were having an affair, or else why would brother-in-law go to sister-in-law's yard at night.
After the eldest son had been away for so long, Mrs. Cao certainly wouldn't blame her second son for being mean, but felt that Yan Ge couldn't hold back and hooked up with her son.
But if this kind of thing got out, the Cao family would lose face, so even though she was so angry that she vomited blood, she could only talk about the housekeeper.
