The conversation between the master and the servant in Xiezhuxuan is naturally unknown to outsiders, but Sheng Weiqiao, who caused their conversation, failed to return to Zhu Ying Xiaozhu to sort out his thoughts, because he met Lao Zheng who came to see her on the way. Mrs. Sheng asked her to go to the Forbidden Snow Hall.
Sheng Weiqiao was still a little cautious on the way there, worried that Sheng Suihe would beat Xu Baomo too hard. Old Mrs. Sheng was afraid that he would not be able to explain to Mr. Xu, so he called him over to beat him.
Who would have thought that when he arrived in front of the old man, he didn't even mention the beating of Xu Baomo. Instead, he kept greeting her with red eyes and gave her a long bow he brought back from northern Xinjiang. Finally, he felt sorry for Sheng Weiqiao. When she was a child, she didn't have the heart to force her to practice martial arts for a few years: "But my Qiao'er is very talented, and it's not too late to learn now. After my grandfather gets better this time, I'll teach you a few tricks myself, okay?"
Although Sheng Weiqiao had no interest in practicing martial arts, looking at his grandfather's extremely pale face during his illness, he naturally would not refuse and said with joy: "Grandpa, don't forget it! When you get better, you will have to teach me in person, but You can’t ask others to prevaricate me!”
The old man nodded as if he was choking: "Don't worry! When has my grandfather ever tried to prevaricate you?"
He didn't say anything else. Sheng Weiqiao acted coquettishly as usual. Seeing that it was almost time, he was worried that the old man would be tired, so he resigned.
After walking for a while, Sheng Weiqiao suddenly felt something was wrong when facing the wind. He reached out and touched it, and sure enough, the silver pipa pendant on his left ear was missing. After recalling the experience just now, nine out of ten times, I accidentally dropped the old man's arm while he was being coquettish.
A mere silver pipa pendant was of course nothing to Sheng Weiqiao. If it was lost, it was lost. There was no need to go back and disturb the already tired old lady Sheng.
But Sheng Weiqiao was worried that the silver pendant happened to fall into her grandfather's quilt, and the earrings were sharp and might pierce the old man, so she hesitated and decided to go back and get it back. Since she thought the old man might have fallen asleep, she specifically told the maid not to follow him. , planning to sneak in quietly, take the earrings and exit.
Unexpectedly, when I turned back to the courtyard where the old man lived, I saw that the door of the courtyard was ajar and there was no sound inside or outside. It was obviously very strange.
Sheng Weiqiao was slightly surprised. He opened the door carefully and went in. He walked through the courtyard and onto the corridor. Just as he was about to cross the threshold, he suddenly heard a suppressed sob coming from the inner room!
The sobbing sound was very strange, something she had never heard before - but the other voice that followed was very familiar to her. It was her grandfather's confidant Lao Zheng: "Old man, don't be sad, I look at the second young lady just now He doesn't look too sad. After all, the man named Xu hasn't lived in our house for long. The second young lady has always been dignified and reserved. How can she miss him so much in such a short time?"
"The child is filial and deliberately pretends to be nonchalant in front of me!" The sobs continued for a while before Old Mrs. Sheng's hoarse voice came out, "If she is really not sad, she will wait for Sleeping Crane to beat up that bastard boy from the Xu family. She didn't show up until she was about to die? It can be seen that she is not feeling aggrieved or resentful in her heart, but she is just afraid that I, the unsatisfactory grandfather, will make things difficult for me, so she has to pretend not to care! In the final analysis, I am the one who harmed her!"
Old Zheng said hurriedly: "That's what you said! You didn't make it clear. Not to mention that the second young lady has officially married into the Xu family. Even if the news has not spread, how can you say that you have harmed the second young lady? Even the second young lady herself would definitely not think so!"
Old Mrs. Sheng was still sad: "The whole family has such a sweetheart. The whole family has pampered and raised her for so many years. I thought that she would be wronged all her life after she left the cabinet and had to be sensible when she got to her husband's family! I didn't expect that the child would be well at home." , but because of me, she almost had to pay for her life wrongly! If she had known it, she should have taught her a few tricks back then, and now she can also give the Xu family boy a good beating in person! Although Sleeping Crane beat her for her, how could she do it? Is it better to relieve hatred than to do it personally? If Madam Hui had a spirit under Jiuquan, I don’t know how distressed she would be."
Huiniang is the maiden name of the late Mrs. Ai, and "Hui" is another name for orchid grass. At that time, Mrs. Ai sacrificed herself to save her son, and Sheng Lanci lost his mother when he died. Therefore, Mrs. Sheng named him "Lanci", which means "Lanci". The mother's long farewell reminds her son not to forget his biological mother.
Later children also followed the "Lan" generation, which shows the old man's feelings for his first wife.
As the direct granddaughter of Mrs. Ai, Sheng Weiqiao was still bequeathed even though she had never met her grandmother. When Sheng Weirao returned from the sea, although Mrs. Sheng felt distressed, he did not lose his composure to the point of crying in front of his old servant for a long time; now Sheng Weiqiao was the one who suffered the loss. Rather than feeling sorry for his granddaughter, the old man felt sorry for his wife and failed to protect the bloodline left by his wife.
But when the old man was choking in the room, he didn't know that Sheng Weiqiao outside was also bursting with tears.
"I'm really stupid. Before I came here, I was worried that my grandfather would question me because Sheng Suihe hit Xu Baomo. Who would have thought that my grandfather called me here because he was worried about me!" She had no intention of going in to look for the earrings again, holding her hands. Zui left in a hurry, crying as he walked, "What happened this time, if Xu Baomo hadn't gone too far and brought Tongfang into the Sheng Mansion to humiliate me, I wouldn't even bother to argue with him! Who knows that my grandfather actually So grudged!"
Although Mrs. Sheng loved her very much, he was still inferior to Sheng Lanci and his wife who doted on their daughter without any principles.
The old man who always bleeds but never sheds tears has no regard for his face and cries like a mess in front of his close servants. It is conceivable that Sheng Lanci and his wife have shed many tears and worried about themselves in private - but they still insist on not being there. Show everything in front of your daughter!
The more Sheng Weiqiao thought about it, the more heartbroken she felt, "I haven't married yet, and I haven't really been cheated on for the rest of my life. I was just teased once, and my family is so sad. If I really suffer this after I leave the cabinet in the future, If my grandfather and parents find out about my grievance, won’t they have trouble sleeping and eating?”
She had also heard from Feng before that when Xuan Yu Feng got married, she was often depressed because of her husband's lust for women. At that time, everyone in the Feng family was extremely distressed, and her grandmother, Mrs. Zhan, was in tears all day long.
If it weren't for Feng's good resignation to Sheng Lan after she came out of the cabinet, Mrs. Zhan would have been comforted to some extent. Then, Xuan Yushe, her grandson, and Sheng Weiqiao, her granddaughter, came to their knees, and Mrs. Zhan had to hold back her tears. Otherwise, the old lady's eyes would be blinded by crying for her daughters. Even so, the old lady's vision was still affected after all.
So when Sheng Weiqiao took Sheng Sleeping He to Xuan Yu's mansion for the first time, if Xuan Yu Feng hadn't interrupted him in time, Mrs. Zhan almost scolded Sheng Sleeping He for being an eyesore.
However, after hearing what Feng said about the regret and worry of the Feng family after Feng's wrong marriage, they were watching from afar.
After hearing her grandfather's sobs and self-blame today, Sheng Weiqiao realized that as the apple of the family's eye, her happiness also affects the family's joys, sorrows, and joys, and is related to the people who hold her in their hands. Elders, can they settle down and spend their old age in peace; can they enjoy the family happiness they should have enjoyed in the last journey of life; can they let go with peace of mind and smile when they have to die in the future
"It's funny that just now when Sheng Suihe persuaded me to learn from my aunt, I was still hesitant!" Sheng Weiqiao walked out of the Forbidden Snow Hall in a state of confusion. Lu Jin Lu Qi and the servants who saw the tears on her face along the way were very surprised, but She didn't say anything, and these people didn't dare to ask. She just bowed her head silently and saluted. Sheng Weiqiao had no time to pay attention to them at the moment. In the midsummer, the sun was blazing, but she felt the refreshing coldness in her bones, "Because I always feel that my aunt is not only interested in... Apart from our relatives, we are too cruel and cruel to others, even vicious!"
"But such an aunt makes my grandmother, my mother, and everyone who cares about her feel at ease, including me, my niece, because I know that she can protect herself very well and will not be bullied!"
"I always feel that I am very powerful. Even if there is something I can't solve, my parents will always be there to stop me!"
"But I forgot that even if my parents can seek justice for me, they will still feel distressed!"
This time Xu Baomo betrayed her. Sheng Lanci and his wife were able to get revenge for their daughter, and so was Mrs. Sheng. But even so, they would still feel sad for Sheng Weiqiao's injustice. Sheng Weiqiao only woke up to this today. come over.
There is a saying in the community that if a child is hit, the pain will be in the mother's heart.
-When the injury occurred to her body, it wasn’t just her mother’s heart that was hurt
So, what reason, qualifications and face does she have to continue to idle around, instead of studying hard from now on so that she can share the worries of these people who love her from the bottom of their hearts
Just as Sheng Suihe said - She learned from Feng that if her husband is good in the future, it will not prevent her from hiding her true colors and living a good life with him; in the future, if her husband is not good, she will have the ability and means not to suffer or be wronged , which not only protects oneself, but also avoids the heartbreak of people like Mrs. Sheng. It is possible to advance or retreat, and there is no need to panic in any case.
And if she continues to be idle and leisurely like this, it will be fine if her future husband is a good one. If not, what will she do? What will happen to her children? And her parents who love her... Sheng Weiqiao thought of what her aunt Xuan Yu Feng said to persuade her on the day of the lotus banquet: "How can you put your mother and daughter's future lives on the character of others?!"
—How could she place her future happiness, that of her children, as well as her parents and family, on the fact that her future husband would be loyal to her for the rest of his life? !
Sheng Weiqiao, who clenched her fists and gritted her teeth almost all the way back to Zhu Ying Xiaozhu, didn't know that just after she left the Forbidden Snow Hall, Mrs. Sheng raised his sleeves and wiped his face carelessly. He asked Lao Zheng with some embarrassment and hesitation: " Do you think the Sleeping Crane idea can work?"
Old Zheng smacked his mouth and said: "I think it's okay for me - Second Miss Xiao, you are the most affectionate and righteous person! If it were just for yourself, because of the pampering of the eldest master and the eldest wife over the years, you may not be able to bear the pain of hard work. Thoughts. But in order to live up to your love and care for her, she will definitely be cruel and temper herself!"
"That's good!" Mrs. Sheng sighed, "Huiniang is just a granddaughter. If she suffers a loss after leaving the pavilion in the future, I won't be able to explain to her even if I go underground. Youdao, things are unpredictable. Relying on your parents is not as reliable as relying on your own efforts. Unfortunately, Lan Ci is such a legitimate daughter. She has been doted on and loved by many people. She knows all the truth, but she can't bear to go against the child's wishes and is used to it. Now, we can even talk about getting married. She is still an innocent and simple-minded person. I can see it in my eyes and feel anxious in my heart! You said that as long as the child marries a good one in the future, forget it. If you marry someone like Lance, even if For a mediocre person like Lan Zi, how can Lan Ci live with his wife...Although I have never liked Feng Yinxue's temperament, for Qiao Er's future consideration, it is always good to learn a few tricks from her - sleep He is right, you must be on guard against others!"
At this point, the old man frowned and said, "But Qiaoer has always been smart. Do you think she will find any flaws and become suspicious after she returns? For example, there is no one waiting inside or outside, but the courtyard door is not closed properly?"
"This can also be explained. For example, the second young lady walked on the front foot, and the old man couldn't help but burst into tears. Upon seeing this, the old slave quickly sent everyone out. Because of his haste, he did not close the courtyard door." Old Zheng After thinking about it, he said, "Besides, the second young lady came back on her own, and we didn't call her back - as long as the old lady didn't notice when he stole the second young lady's earrings, according to the second young lady's current character, he definitely wouldn't." I suspect that we will join hands with the young master to 'persuad' her. When the second young lady will become suspicious in the future, I think the scheming city government will also come forward. If the goal is achieved, we are all a family. The second young lady can only say a few words to you. Is there any resentment left? ?"
Old Mrs. Sheng was right after thinking about it. He stroked his beard and said with satisfaction: "You still have doubts about my craftsmanship? What's more, Qiao'er was not prepared at all. When she took off her earrings, she was still thinking of ways to coax me... Oh, it's so good. Child, how can you let her be bullied?!"
The old man pondered, "You should have cried when Qiao Er left, right? Just in time, it was said to the outside world that I was so angry at the bastard thing the Xu family boy did last night, and planned to deal with him severely! Even Qiao Er came to intercede. I scolded him! Sleeping crane is right. Didn't the Xu family boy say that our Qiaoer has a jealous temperament? We insist on letting everyone know about it. Without Qiaoer's generosity, he wouldn't be able to get out this time. The door of my Sheng family!"
- Previously, Sheng Suihe violently beat Xu Baomo. Sheng Weiqiao took the time to arrive and left after saying the unnecessary lines about being tolerant, kind, noble, generous and compassionate. The level of acting was too obvious. The old man felt that if he wanted to be realistic, he still had to help himself. become!
