... Mrs. Tao, who was said to be ill, was half leaning on the soft couch, frowning, listening to Mrs. Hu whispering about the day's experience: "... It is said that Dr. Lin diagnosed it personally, and even if the lady can survive it, she will not be afraid of the future. I can’t see anything anymore.”
"What did Chao Hai say?"
"Miss Dasun cried for a long time, and the old man only asked people to help her back to the room to rest..." Mother Hu pondered, "but she took the old man to the study to talk alone." After a pause, "I don't know what they are talking about. ”
Mrs. Tao sighed: "The first house colluded with the third house to harm Xiao Shiba and the others, and the fourth wife attacked the first house as soon as she came back. How can the hatred between the two houses be resolved? But now Something happened to important people on both sides, and no one is punished! I don’t know what Chao Hai is going to do now.”
Mother Hu said softly: "Many people have seen what the Fourth Madam did to the First Madam. The old man always loves the First Madam, so I'm afraid it will be disadvantageous to the Fourth Madam."
"Not necessarily!" Mrs. Tao shook her head, "Chaohai didn't deal with her on the spot. When Nineteen comes back, it won't be possible to do anything harsh... Nineteen's status in Chaohai's mind is not low!"
"But if such a big thing happened to the eldest lady, you can't just expose it lightly, right?" Hu's mother was still a little worried. The eldest family has always had a detached status for so many years, but now the mistress of the house was beaten to death in public!
Mrs. Tao hummed: "Zheng'er is still a legitimate granddaughter! Isn't Ah Xing's status inferior? Ling Zui, the youngest legitimate son whom Marquis Jingchuan and Princess Maode loved the most - even if the three of them were gone, they would be able to care less." It's too light, let alone a Dou family!"
"Speaking of which, the third bedroom took advantage this time!" Hu's mother lamented, "Because of the eldest lady, I'm afraid the fourth wife won't be able to free up anything if she wants to pursue the third bedroom."
"It's been all these years and you still don't know what Dafang's standards are?" Mrs. Tao sneered, "The two of them worked together to trick Zheng'er and the others, but now only Dafang has suffered a big loss. Do you think they will be willing to do so?"
"And if Mrs. Dou really dies because of this, Jiang Yayue will have to worry! Wouldn't that be an advantage to Jiang Yaqing? Do you think Da Fang can swallow this?"
Mother Hu was horrified: "Did the Fourth Madam do this on purpose?"
"It's just a way of killing three people with two peaches!" Mrs. Tao said coldly, "But the fourth daughter-in-law may not have such a plan. Most likely, Jiang Tianchi is behind the plan... Also, the couple only has one legitimate daughter, so there is nothing wrong with it. No crime, he was killed at a young age, if the parents don’t take action, who will treat the children of the fourth family as human beings in the future?”
"So now the old lady is just trying to make some remarks to the eldest master?" What Mrs. Tao can see through, how can Duke Qin not be able to see through it
Mrs. Tao smiled and said, "So what if you give me some advice? This is a conspiracy of the fourth house: if the first house does not attack the third house, most of the consequences of what the two families do together will be borne by the first house, and most of the benefits will be taken by the third house." Go... don't say that the pinch points in the main room are too strong. If it were you, would you be able to bear it? "
Mother Hu thought for a while and sighed: "I am not willing to give in!"
"Isn't that it?" Mrs. Tao muttered, "Jiang Tian'ao may not need some advice from Chao Hai to understand this truth, but if he doesn't deal with Sanfang, he will suffer even more!"
"But..." Mother Hu pursed her lips, "If the third room is also dragged into the water by the third room, wouldn't the fourth room benefit in the end? Even if the first room is jealous of the third room, if there is a gap between the third room and the fourth room, If you choose..."
Mrs. Tao said contemptuously: "Isn't there still Chaohai? Will Chaohai let the fourth room, who has formed an unresolved hatred with the big house, continue to be the big brother?"
Also, even if Jiang Tianao doesn't have confidence in himself, he will not lose confidence in Qin Guogong's favoritism - over the years, whether justified or not, right or wrong, when has Qin Guogong not stood by his side and worked hard for him
"Anyway, I have been sick and idle during this period. If anyone comes, please take care of it for me!" Mrs. Tao pressed her hair on her temples and said in a half-hearted tone, "The fourth daughter-in-law is not going to give anything to her elders. Even Chao Hai is so angry that she can be so angry over and over again, so why not me? I’m too old to embarrass myself in front of her!”
At this point, he leaned back and said lazily, "Besides, if Chaohai hadn't been so spoiled by Dafang, how could this happen? He would end it on his own, so don't count on me!"
Mrs. Tao had made up her mind to live her life behind closed doors, let alone the others - Jiang Yashuang was ordered to go out of the city for two days, so she sent someone to deliver the message. It would take several days for him to come back. time. It can be said that everyone in the Duke's mansion is walking on thin ice with fear!
However, in addition to making a big fuss in the big room on the first day, Mrs. Zhuang also went to the Jibei Marquis Mansion to meet with Mrs. Ou and reminisce about the past. Mrs. Ou had previously followed her husband to sit in northern Xinjiang and got along with Mrs. Zhuang. For more than ten years, the relationship was very good, so Mrs. Zhuang ignored Mrs. Tao, but she was very polite to her.
Of course, when Mrs. Zhuang went to the Marquis's Mansion in Jibei, the sixth lady, Mi, was very frightened, but her cousin-in-law was passing by, and she was the only daughter-in-law in the Marquis's Mansion, so she had to come out to accompany her.
Mrs. Zhuang Zhuang didn't know whether she was aware of her rejection of Qiu Yilan or because she didn't care about Mrs. Ou's face, so she didn't do anything to her.
"Mr. Zhuang went to the Marquis Mansion of Jibei?" As Mrs. Zhuang was chatting and joking with Mrs. Ou, the Duke of Qin in the Duke's Mansion asked calmly, "I seemed to have made it very clear that day. She was allowed to stay in the fourth room and was not allowed to go anywhere, right?"
The old servant nodded: "Fourth Madam is deliberately disobeying orders."
"She probably thought that Fourteenth and Nineteenth were here, so why couldn't I do anything to her?" Qin Guogong smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes. He said lightly, "Go to the fourth room and take care of Little Sixteen and his wife." The eldest daughter took it out and gave it to Xiao Liu’s daughter-in-law!”
"yes!"
"Let the sixteenth daughter-in-law pack her things and leave for Northern Xinjiang within three days!"
The old servant was stunned and said: "Sixteenth Young Master..."
"Of course we will go together!" Qin Guogong said coldly, "Tell Xiao Liu's daughter-in-law that if the Zhuang family is in northern Xinjiang and the couple goes there, I am afraid they may not even have the opportunity to meet the fourth child! While the Zhuang family is not here now Over there, do as much as you can!”
The old servant said cautiously: "What if the Sixteenth Young Master becomes a bad guy in the army? To the Nineteenth Young Master..." The Nineteenth Young Master is the pillar of the future that you have carefully cultivated! You can't offend the Nineteenth Young Master because of the Fourth Madam, and cause him trouble, right
"That was Zhuang's fault too!" Qin Guogong said expressionlessly, "Isn't she capable of making trouble? Let's see how many of her husband's and son's futures can offset her mistakes!"
Apparently Mrs. Zhuang's disobedience and disrespect completely offended Duke Qin, and he was determined to beat her up by promoting Jiang Yazhu!
The old servant knew that no matter how hard he tried to persuade him, it would be in vain, so he sighed in his heart: "Yes!"
... Sheng Shishui was so happy when he saw his daughter being brought back by the old servant in front of Duke Qin. Without saying a word, he hugged Jiang Huihuan and kowtowed three times in the courtyard of Duke Qin. He said with tears: "My granddaughter-in-law will live forever." Forget my grandfather’s great kindness!”
Not knowing that Mrs. Zhuang had no intention of killing Jiang Huihuan, she was ready to say goodbye to her daughter forever. Now things have turned around and my daughter has been returned to her safely. The gratitude brought about by this gap is truly indescribable!
Seeing this situation, the old servant also felt pity. He didn't have much contact with the backyard, but he also knew that Sheng Shishui had always been filial and cautious. The most rare thing was that after she entered the door, she persuaded Jiang Yazhu to go on the right path. This time Mrs. Zhuang When she came back, she tried her best to make the best of everything, but Mrs. Zhuang just didn't regard her as a human being. She felt soft and said a few more words: "It's best not to let the Fourth Madam know about packing things... It's the same when setting off!"
"It is said that the fourth master has not had any children under his knees these years, and he misses all the young masters and ladies very much."
"You must get out of the sight of mother-in-law!" Sheng Shishui sent him out with a lot of gratitude. He went back to the house and picked up his daughter. After checking inside and outside, he found that there were no scars and she was in good spirits. Then she was relieved. In his tone, he secretly vowed, "I must please my father-in-law!!!"
Under the deliberate cover of Qin Guogong, Jiang Yazhu and his wife packed their things secretly without alerting anyone.
After Mrs. Zhuang knew that Jiang Huihuan was picked up by Qin Guogong, she naturally would not just let it go. He was just persuaded by Chang's mother and others. Since Qin Guogong directly intervened in the matter of learning the rules for a great-granddaughter whom he had never asked before, it was obvious that he was dissatisfied with her going out without authorization. It was better not to make Qin Guogong angry again before Jiang Yashuang came back.
In the end, he decided to send Chang's mother to send a few books such as "Principles for Women" and let Sheng Shishui copy them on her behalf, which was a bit of a favor for herself.
Sheng Shishui took the book respectfully, turned around and threw it into the box: "Keep the door closed for me these days. When someone comes, they say I have to copy books and have no time to receive them... After noticing the visitor, I found that the things had been packed away. Get up trouble!”
In the afternoon after she picked up the book, Jiang Yashuang returned to the Duke's Mansion in a dusty manner. As soon as he entered the door, he was taken to the study by Duke Qin to vent his anger. Jiang Yashuang was also shocked after hearing what Mrs. Zhuang did in the main room, but of course he would not let it happen. Instead of siding with Mrs. Zhuang, he excused and defended Mrs. Zhuang in various ways. Qin Guogong just listened with a sneer, and finally wrote lightly: "In short, your eldest aunt is here with only one breath left. Mr. Zhuang did it in full view of everyone." Come on! This can't be denied by denying it... How to deal with it, you go and discuss it with Mr. Zhuang, I'll give you two days, if you can't come up with an argument that can convince everyone, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Jiang Yashuang sighed and returned to the fourth room. She first went to the hall to pay homage to her mother - her biological mother and son were reunited after a long separation. Naturally, she was extremely excited and burst into tears. Mrs. Zhuang looked at Yushu Linfeng's youngest son, feeling both proud and indebted. She then thought of Jiang Qizheng, her twin with Jiang Yashuang, but she felt endless sadness: "There is no news about your sister in Shazhou until now. I think back then..."
At this point, before Chang’s mother and others could persuade her, Mrs. Zhuang suddenly coughed violently, and blood oozed from the corner of her mouth!
"Mother!"
"lady!"
Jiang Yashuang, Chang's mother and others were all shocked, hurriedly patted their backs and rubbed their chests, and sent people to call the doctor. In the chaotic scene, Jiang Yashuang saw a familiar figure wandering outside the door. My heart for my mother almost jumped to my throat. I quickly walked out and asked, "Su He, why are you here? But Lan Lan?"
Su He simply shook his head: "The young madam is very good! It's just... Miss Qiu in the other courtyard wants to see the young madam. The young madam wants to see her, but she is afraid that her mother will stop her... "
"Those two people came from rough backgrounds. Let's meet again when I'm free to accompany Lan Lan!" Jiang Yashuang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it wasn't his wife who was ill. How could he have the time to care about such a trivial matter in this situation? "Why? Anything else?"
"But Miss Qiu said it was an urgent matter!" Su He wondered, "Young madam is worried that she really has something important, and is afraid of delaying it!"
Jiang Yashuang rubbed her eyebrows: "Then you go and run for Lanlan to see what happened to her!?"
