Because Mrs. Su approved Wei Changying the day before, after waiting for the daughters-in-law to salute and say hello, she briefly asked the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law a few questions about the family affairs, examined her granddaughter and grandchildren, and then said: "Chang Ying is going to Sikong. I’m going to visit my cousin at home. You can go there now. Remember to come back before the curfew.”
Wei Changying hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Daughter-in-law, I obey!"
Since Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Duanmu were here, they had to say a few words in a nonchalant manner, saying that Mrs. Su was really good to Chief Wei, and she allowed her daughter-in-law to go everywhere after only two days of the full moon.
Wei Changying replied with a smile: "Otherwise, why would everyone say that we are so lucky? Who out there doesn't envy us for having elders like our mother, and loves us daughters-in-law the most? To be honest with my two sisters-in-law, I went to my grandmother's house yesterday. On the way, my husband was joking with me, saying that it made him sick to see my mother loving me so much."
She pushed everything to Mrs. Su. Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Duanmu could not say anything more. They could only praise Mrs. Su for being kind and kind. It was a great blessing to be her daughter-in-law... Mrs. Su looked lazily. Following the secret quarreling among the daughters-in-law, he said to Wei Changying: "Do you have any relatives you want to visit, so hurry up and visit them these two days. We have a large family, and your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law all have children to look forward to." "Gu, I don't have much thought to share with the housekeeper, and you won't be lazy in the future."
Mrs. Su said this in an understatement, but the three daughters-in-law were stunned. There was no sound for a moment in the hall. After a few breaths, the guard chief Ying spoke in panic: "Mother, my daughter-in-law is still young, and the three sisters-in-law are young." The daughter-in-law is the youngest, and she doesn’t know anything. How can she take care of the house when she has to learn from her mother and sisters-in-law? "
Mrs. Liu smiled unnaturally, her fingers holding the handkerchief turned slightly blue due to exertion. At this moment, she could only say: "What the third brother and sister said is wrong. Who hasn't been here since they were teenagers? Not to mention the third brother and sister. You’ve always been smart, can’t you just learn this housekeeping thing?”
Shen Zangfeng's status in the clan determines that his wife will definitely take care of things after entering the house. However, Mrs. Su didn't even mention it when she was newly married to a third wife yesterday. Mrs. Liu thought that Mrs. Su planned to come here slowly. Unexpectedly, it was suddenly announced today.
As the eldest daughter-in-law who became a householder as soon as she came into the family and has been in charge of the Shen family for more than ten years, Mrs. Liu had already made plans to hand over the power to Wei Changying, but when this day actually came, Mrs. Liu still felt unhappy from the bottom of her heart. After saying this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but droop, but she couldn't even maintain her smile.
Duanmu coughed lightly and said, "As soon as I said that my mother loved the three younger siblings, she started to love us. I was thinking that Shu Yan was too naughty, and wanted to tell my mother to tell me to stop taking care of things. Free your hands to discipline her!"
Although the Duanmu family has been at odds with her sister-in-law ever since Wei Changying came to the family, she was much less affected than the Liu family when it came to the housekeeper. Originally, she didn't have much power in her hands, but she was just acting as a nuisance to Mrs. Liu. After all, Shen Lian was not Mrs. Su's biological child. Although she was considered a respectable person in front of Mrs. Su, in terms of true trust, how could she compare to her direct daughter-in-law?
So these words were spoken calmly.
Mrs. Su saw the expressions of her daughters-in-law and said calmly: "This matter is settled like this, and I didn't ask you to take on everything immediately. Didn't you still have your sisters-in-law to teach you? Don't you worry? , wouldn’t it be enough to ask your sisters-in-law for advice?”
After her mother-in-law said this, Wei Changying could only lean forward and say: "Daughter-in-law, I obey my orders!" He also asked the Liu family and Duanmu family, saying that he was young and had little knowledge and was newly married. He hoped that his sisters-in-law would give them more advice in the future.
In front of Mrs. Su, Mr. Liu and Mr. Duanmu were naturally cordial and polite, repeatedly reassuring her.
After finally saying goodbye and going out, the weather was getting hot now. Wei Changying felt that his inner clothes were all wet. Seeing that he was the only one around, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's not easy to be stable these days!"
Huang said with a smile: "Madam, if you don't say that, then you are not stable! Our young master is valued by the clan, and the young madam should have taken care of things immediately after the full moon. Now the eldest young lady and the second young madam are not So happy, what can I do to the young lady?"
Wei Changying said: "It's not that I'm afraid of them, it's just that it's boring to be so intrigued all day long."
"That's how we get along with our sisters in the backyard of the big house." Mrs. Huang comforted her, "Young Madam, you don't have to worry. Now Madam has personally asked Young Madam to take care of the house. As Madam said, there are both the first and second bedrooms. You have to worry about your children. The young lady is a bride. There is nothing for the young lady to worry about in our yard now. Take advantage of this situation to set up the rules and lay a good foundation. In the future, the young lady will have children and she will not have to worry about being raped. I took the opportunity to seize the power!"
Wei Changying couldn't help but blush when he heard about the birth of a child: "What are you talking about, aunt! It's such a long way... I'm going to visit my cousin today. Have you prepared all the gifts you need to bring?"
Madam Huang said with a smile: "Young Madam, I have been thinking about it since Madam agreed yesterday. Can the maids please help me?"
"That's good. Unexpectedly, my mother suddenly mentioned the housekeeper today, which delayed me for a while. If there is any delay, I'm afraid I won't be able to have a few words with my cousin." Wei Changying breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Listen. Mother’s words only give me a few days to visit!”
Mrs. Huang consoled her, "Anyway, Young Madam is in the imperial capital now. Even if she takes charge of the house and is too busy to visit Miss Ciao at Sikong Mansion, we will always have the opportunity to see her every few days and during the holidays."
While talking, they returned to Jintong Courtyard. The group of people hurriedly changed out of their clothes, took the gifts for the Song family, boarded the car at the back, and ordered the driver to hurry up and hurry up.
Urged on by Guard Chief Ying, the carriage sped along. Although the road to the Imperial City was smooth, it was too bumpy due to the speed. When they arrived at Sikong Mansion, everyone looked unhappy.
Song Zaishui, who was greeting her at the car, was smiling. When he saw his cousin, who was always agile and lively, being helped down to the ground tremblingly, he couldn't help but be startled and said: "How did it get like this? ?”
Wei Changying looked up at her weakly, only to see that Song Zaishui was wearing a small curtain hat to cover up the scars on his face, with a piece of gauze sewn on the front half of the hat brim as a cover. The gauze was not long and only reached the tip of her nose, revealing half of her face like mutton-fat jade. Her lips were undyed but bright, making her look very good.
It seems that Ni Hao's previous report was correct. This cousin is not at all as pitiful and unfortunate as the rumors outside, but is actually living a very comfortable life.
"I was anxious to see you and urged the coachman to drive faster." At this time, the coachman also leaned under the shaft of the coach to apologize. Wei Changying waved his hand and said to him, "It's none of your business."
Turning to Song Zaishui - because the two sisters were used to being casual when they were in Fengzhou, she was too dizzy now to think too much, and said, "Take me into your yard to have a rest. I didn't expect that the ground paved with bluestones can also be used." So bumpy.”
"Look at you, you fool!" Song Zaishui covered his mouth with his sleeves, unable to hide his gloating expression, and said, "How good is the road? How can it not be bumpy if it's fast? Besides, now that you are all in the imperial capital, you are still afraid of missing me. What are you doing in such a hurry?" After gloating, he stepped forward to help her, "Is everything okay?"
Before Wei Changying could answer, in the corridor not far away, the man who had been ignored by the two sisters for a long time finally couldn't bear it anymore and coughed heavily and said: "Cousin Wei is not feeling well? Come in and sit down quickly."
This voice is very sweet, but at this moment there is a hint of annoyance...
Wei Changying looked over subconsciously and saw three or five pretty maids accompanying a beauty in yellow clothes, standing against the railing. Her clothes were fluttering in the wind, but there was a slight hesitation on Huang Shangli's face. She was obviously very unhappy that her cousins only talked to themselves and ignored her.
In fact, Song Zaishui might have meant to ignore her, but he had wronged Wei Changying. Because there are roses planted outside the fence, there will be bright yellow roses in bloom, just like the color of her clothes. In addition, Song Zaishui also brought all the four scenes of spring, summer, autumn and winter with him. In addition to the four personal ambassadors of the four scenes, there were also several little maids surrounding him. The fragrantly dressed figures were hidden, and Wei Changying was dizzy from the jolt of the carriage. The beauty was silent, she really didn't notice.
At a glance, this person is about twenty years old, dressed as a woman, with eyebrows and beautiful eyes - a pampered female member of a well-known family, and her appearance always looks younger than her actual age. So Wei Changying was not sure whether it was the eldest cousin-in-law Huo or the second cousin-in-law Duanmu.
He hesitated and asked, "Who is this sister-in-law?"
The beauty in yellow clothes was about to speak, but Song Zaishui said without looking back: "Oh, this is the second sister-in-law." Then he said, "The second sister-in-law woke up this morning and complained that she had a headache. Didn't the second brother let you stay in the house?" Don't you want to come out? Why is my sister-in-law here too? I didn't even see you following me so quietly."
After hearing this, the second lady of the Song family's face turned dark. She tightened her handkerchief and said, "Sister, does this mean you think I'm going to come with you to welcome Sister Wei?"
"That's what the second sister-in-law said." Song Zaishui turned his head, glanced at her lightly, and said lukewarmly, "I'm not afraid that after the second brother comes back, he will know that my sister-in-law is not lying down, and he will come back to irritate me and say that I don't Feeling sorry for sister-in-law?”
The second lady pursed her lips vigorously - Song Zaishui said again: "Besides, the eldest sister-in-law has not been well these past two days. Today I can't even see my cousin. The second sister-in-law has to be in charge of this house. My cousin is not an outsider, so I don't have to worry about it. Sister-in-law is worried, I'll just take care of it myself." After saying that, he didn't even look at the second lady's face. He raised his sleeves and called to Wei Changying, "I have ten parrots, eight fish tanks, and a snowflake. The ball-shaped lion cat... The yard is very lively now! Come and have a look with me. If you like it, just take it!"
When he reached a position where he couldn't see the second lady, Wei Changying quietly asked Song Zaishui: "What's going on?"
Song Zaishui sneered and said: "What do you care about her? Last time Ni Hao came over, I asked about your two sisters-in-law. Duanmu Yanyu, who is also the second sister-in-law, is also the daughter of the Duanmu family. She tripped you up as soon as you entered the door. ? There is no such daughter in this Duanmu family! Yesterday, my second brother was so angry that he married such a woman! If my sister-in-law hadn't had an unexpected miscarriage a few days ago, She can’t get the bed, and the noise has made the whole family uneasy. I really don’t want to persuade her, so I’ll just ask my second brother to drive her back to her parents’ house!”
Wei Changying said in surprise: "Oh, my cousin is so angry now? You are not someone who gets angry easily. What did this second cousin do to make you so angry?"
"That piece of oriole... uh, the thing about the crane holding Chipei in its mouth, when the eldest brother came back and told the second brother, of course the second brother would blame her for acting recklessly. As a result, she hated me!" Song Zaishui sneered, She casually picked a flower from the roadside and tied it around her wrist. She said as she walked, "When I was recovering from my injuries, she visited me three times a day. She never forgot to say a few words every time, 'It's a pity. Such a look.'" "Your good looks are ruined like this. How can the royal family want you?", "It hurts something bad, but it hurts your face. The royal family doesn't want you. I'm afraid others won't want a disfigured lady. It's pitiful." Sister, I’m afraid you’ll be alone for the rest of your life, I’m afraid I won’t let you go!”
After hearing this, Wei Changying changed his expression and said angrily: "What a poisonous woman! What a shame, cousin, you are so determined. It would be strange if you had a sister-in-law instead of being forced to death by her!" He felt that Song Yuwang, Song Zaitian and Song Zaijiang were too much. Ruthless, "My uncle and two cousins just let her bully my cousin? Isn't this too much?"
When Song Zaishui saw her getting angry, he became happy, calmed down his coldness, and said with a smile: "Don't get excited. It's not like you don't know. Am I the kind of sister-in-law who lets my sister-in-law bully me?" She raised her lips proudly, " Don't talk about bullying me, just neglect me. I'm so petty, I won't give it back when I'm free! My sister-in-law is not my sister, not a blood relative, so why should I tolerate them? "
When she said this, she couldn't help but glare at Wei Changying, stuck the flower branch on her head, and said bitterly, "The most disadvantageous thing for me in this life is you. You make you jump with anger every time." There’s nothing I can do about you! That means you’re my biological cousin, and it’s someone else, huh!”
When Wei Changying heard her say that he didn't suffer a loss, his anger was somewhat subdued. Now he said angrily: "Although I'm angry with you, cousin, I'm also helping you! Cousin, tell me how you didn't suffer a loss. If I think I still suffered a loss, I’m going to find this Duanmu Wuse and get everything back for you!” (To be continued)
