At the same time, in the west chamber, Mrs. Li was pulling Sister Yan to talk, but what she said was all about Zhou Sheng.
"I think this young man is not bad, he is honest and works in the palace, and he is not too old."
Sister Yan only glanced through the window, and didn't see what Zhou Sheng looked like at all, so she couldn't help but whispered: "How promising he can be, he's not a servant for others."
Mrs. Li slapped her on the body: "What's wrong with the servant? It also depends on where the servant is! How can the long-term workers of the small landlord's house compare with the servants of the palace?! Besides, Zhou Sheng is only a servant this year. No matter how old you are, who dares to say what your future will be like in the future. Do you think you are the queen mother of the golden phoenix egg and descended to earth with a former virgin? If you miss this, you will go to the countryside to marry an old widower and become a stepmother!"
Sister Yan is not willing to be a stepmother, she wrinkled her face and looked at Mrs. Li hesitantly: "Then this?"
Mrs. Li nodded vigorously, "That's all! I'll try to see if I can keep him for another day tomorrow, and then I'll ask your brother to help me make the match."
"Then Su Yaoniang won't do bad things on the side?" Sister Yan rolled her eyes.
"She dares!" Li patted her thigh, "Don't forget that Xiaobao is still at our house."
Sister Yan nodded and snuggled up to Mrs. Li: "Mother, I think that Su Yaoniang seems to be well-developed, and she brought a lot of good things when she came back this time. The things in the palace must be good. If you want something different for me, I will also It can be used as a dowry."
Not to mention this, Li Shi didn't remember it yet, but she saw that Su Yaoniang brought two bags of things when she came back. Unfortunately, Zhou Sheng was with her at the time, and she didn't have the nerve to ask her for it in person.
But in front of her daughter, she definitely couldn't reveal her thoughts. She poked Sister Yan's forehead with her finger, "I can't kill you, you shallow-sighted girl. If you want a dowry, someone must marry you first!"
After saying that, she left the West Wing. When she passed by the East Wing, she saw that there was a light on inside. She hesitated for a while, and resisted not going to eavesdrop.
The morning light is faint, and the sky is breaking.
Linyun County is like a giant beast gradually waking up from a deep sleep, and the streets and alleys began to have human voices.
Huaishu Alley, here is still quiet, from time to time you can hear the creak of the door, followed by the sound of wooden wheels rolling over the bluestone slabs. This is a dung truck that collects dung water, and it collects dung water from house to house every morning.
Yaoniang woke up early, but she couldn't bear to get up. Next to her lay Xiaobao, who was sleeping soundly.
Faintly hearing the rustling sound of sweeping the yard outside, Yaoniang kissed her son's head and got up to put on her clothes. When she was almost done tidying up, there was movement outside.
It wasn't until she heard a creak and Yao Cheng's voice outside that Yao Niang opened the door and went out.
Hui Niang also got up and was making the bed.
Brother Ming lives in the main house with Mrs. Li now, and Brother Hong lives with his parents.
Brother Hong is still awake at the moment, and is sleeping on a small bed made for him alone. This bed was facing the window, and it was two meters square, surrounded by high wooden fences.
Hui Niang turned to her younger sister and said: "Xiao Bao is still awake? Just let him go before he wakes up, so as to save the adult from turning around, the child wakes up and falls off the bed."
The milk baby who is more than six months old is just when he is naughty. After waking up, he will roll all over the bed. If there is no railing to stop him, he might fall into something. Hui Niang looked after the three children by herself, and although Li Shi usually helped to look after the older brother Ming, after all, she and sister Yan were both lazy and didn't want to do anything. Hui Niang saw three children and was busy with housework, so she had no choice but to ask a carpenter to make such a bed. When she had work in hand, she would put Brother Hong and Xiaobao in the bed.
Seeing such a bed, Yaoniang was heartbroken, suppressed her sobs and nodded, went in and carried Xiaobao out to Hong Geer's side.
"Okay, if any family has more children, they all come here." Seeing that her sister was feeling a little uncomfortable, Madam Hui comforted her.
Yao Niang nodded and said: "Sister, I asked you to hire someone to help, or buy a little girl, why didn't you buy it?"
Hui Niang sighed, "Do you think buying a little girl is a matter of money? Someone who can take care of children at just the right age is hard to come by. Buying it back when she is too young is equivalent to buying another daughter for our family. You and I My brother-in-law can’t do things like ask the little girl to help with the work. As for hiring someone to come back to help, it’s hard to find those who know the basics and feel at ease, and those who don’t know the basics don’t dare to use them. There’s no need to steal our children and sell them.”
Yaoniang thought about it, and said, "I'll be back in half a year. But I think it's better to hire someone to come back, even if you can't help with the children, it's okay to help with the housework. What will happen in those two days?" I don’t even do it, it’s all pointed at you, so I don’t have to exhaust you.”
Just as he was talking, Yao Cheng smiled and walked in: "Brother Zhou is so polite this week, he got up early in the morning to help clean our yard."
Only then did Yaoniang realize that it was Zhou Sheng who was sweeping the yard outside early in the morning.
"I think the brothers are pretty good this week, what do you think, Yaoyao?"
"Brother Zhou is very nice..."
Yaoniang told about what happened on the way back this time, but Huiniang was so shocked that she broke into a sweat, "These people are too lawless, they dare to rob civilian girls in broad daylight."
"It's probably not the first time I've done this kind of thing, but with the signboard of King Jin's Mansion, no one in this area dares to stroke a tiger's whiskers without knowing the taste."
"It seems that Yaoyao's work in the palace is not bad."
The three of them were talking, and Brother Hong and Xiaobao both woke up. After dressing the two children and washing their faces, Yao Niang and Hui Niang went to the kitchen to make breakfast, leaving Yao Cheng to watch the children inside. During this period, Yaoniang was standing in the kitchen, and she could hear Li Shi and Zhou Sheng talking outside.
"Sister, what is she trying to do?" Mrs. Li responded, saying that there is nothing good about being courteous, but there is nothing good about being courteous.
"What else..."
Immediately, Huiniang told Yaoniang what happened to Sister Yan.
Yao Niang was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, this was beyond her expectation. Did something like this happen in your previous life? But Yaoniang never went home in her previous life, so naturally she didn't know about Sister Yan.
Thinking about it at this time, evil comes with evil, the breath that Yaoniang had held in her heart for two lifetimes suddenly disappeared, and she felt a lot more relaxed.
"Then she is trying to make Brother Zhou and Sister Yan a pair?"
Hui Niang glanced at her younger sister, but she didn't think she was stupid.
"That's not okay, Brother Zhou is a good man, so we can't hurt him like this." Yao Niang immediately wanted to go out, but was stopped by Hui Niang, "Okay, you will treat your Brother Zhou as a fool, so he won't go up This mother and daughter were fooled."
Yao Niang heard something, and said angrily: "Sister, what about my brother Zhou and your brother Zhou?"
Hui Niang glanced at her younger sister with interest: "This week, Zhou Sheng's eyes are only on you, don't tell sister that you didn't see it."
Yaoniang really didn't see it, she just felt that Zhou Sheng treated her too kindly, she never expected that he would be moved by such thoughts. Can't help but think of when he came back, he asked himself if he wanted to remarry...
"I think Zhou Sheng is a good person this week, and I know your situation. Since he is still willing to be courteous by your side, it means that he doesn't care about your status as a married person, and you have a child."
Yao Niang said: "He hasn't married a wife yet, how could he want someone like me."
Hui Niang didn't want to listen to this anymore, she looked at her younger sister and said, "What kind of person is that? My Yaoyao is the best woman in the world, and deserves to be treated sincerely by any man."
"sister… "
Niang Hui patted her, "Okay, sister said you know it well, it's not easy for a woman to live with a child in this world, since someone is willing to share the burden with you, why don't you consider it? I also hope that you can find someone in the future Man, some people ask about coldness and warmth, knowing cold and hot."
Looking for a man
Yaoniang fell into silence, she glanced at Zhou Sheng who was washing the car in the courtyard, and Zhou Sheng happened to also look over, and the two of them met each other's eyes. Seeing the joy in the other party's eyes, she lowered her head subconsciously, and somehow thought of King Jin in her mind.
King Jin's Mansion, Chaohui Hall, King Jin received the third secret letter from An Shiyi.
A few large characters were written on a narrow piece of paper—
The coachman stayed for another day, and the family wanted to make a match.
Fucheng stood on the side, wishing to stretch his neck to see.
But the key point is that he doesn't dare, he can't wait to stick his head into his crotch right now.
Ever since His Highness received An Shi's first secret letter, he felt cold all over his body, and it was already frozen at this moment, Fu Cheng didn't want to go up to make fun of himself.
Jin Wang suddenly stood up and walked out: "Prepare the horse!"
Fucheng choked for a moment, where did he plan to go? Immediately after he realized, His Highness could not be looking for Nanny Su, right
Mrs. Li insisted on pulling Zhou Sheng to let him stay at Yao's house for one more day, and even moved out his elder status, Zhou Sheng had no choice but to agree.
After getting a satisfactory answer, Mrs. Li happily went to find her son, but who ever thought she would hit a nail on Yao Cheng.
"Mother, I advise you to give up on this idea. Her family background is clean and her status is not bad, so why marry a sister Yan. Besides, I'm not afraid you know that this week, Mrs. Hui and I are treated as brothers-in-law. , I came here for Yaoyao, not for Sister Yan. Don't tell me that Sister Yan has taken a fancy to Zhou Sheng again, why is it that Sister Yan has to stand beside any man who likes Yaoyao? Don't say I didn't warn her, if she makes any trouble this time, I'll send her to the aunt's temple and let her be my aunt!"
I really can't blame Yao Cheng for speaking badly, but he is already annoyed to death by his mother and sister. That's all for Mrs. Li, it's his mother, he can't take it lightly, but he doesn't like Sister Yan very much.
Although she is a biological younger sister, Yao Cheng has not been close to Sister Yan since she was a child. Sister Yan has been a traitor since she was a child. What happened to Yaoniang also let Yao Cheng know that this younger sister was raised by his mother, and her heart was poisoned like that, which made people shudder just thinking about it.
Especially since Feng Heizi's accident, sister Yan made such a fuss, let Yao Cheng see that since fate is not good, he accepts fate, as long as he knows the good fortune and cherishes good fortune, he can live a good life no matter what. But he found several families for Sister Yan. She either disliked them for being poor, or they were old, or they didn't want to be a stepmother.
But the problem is that Sister Yan is like this now, whoever wants to marry her back without a son will not have to cut off their own incense.
Mrs. Li didn't expect her son to speak so harshly, so she stretched out her hand and patted him twice, and said angrily: "Who is your own sister? That's not Su Yaoniang, why are you all going to him! You married The wolf cub who lost his wife and forgot his mother, threw away all your sisters for your daughter-in-law."
"Just treat me like I married a daughter-in-law and forget about my mother. Mother Hui treats you well on weekdays. You and Sister Yan stretched out your clothes and opened your mouth. What kind of work have you done at home? Pointing at the whole house. Niang Hui, you can still find her fault! If you want your son to be good and our old Yao family to be bright, then don’t make Yaoyao unhappy. She is now serving the little princess, because of this relationship , Magistrate Qian is planning to promote me to be a headhunter. If you think I can't do this headhunter, you can continue to do it!"
So it is still the son who understands his mother, and it is true that Li Shi really loves Sister Yan, but compared with his son's future, his official wife's dream, and the lintel of the old Yao's family, it is obvious that he has to take a step back.
After Yao Cheng left, Mrs. Li continued to smack her lips: "Why is the person different after going to the palace now? It won't work if it's inlaid with gold!"
Hey, it really is inlaid with gold!
