Su Nuannuan didn't seem to see her, let her kneel there, just chewed slowly, and ate several pieces, and then said to Xiangyun who was holding the plate: "That's all, you go In the North Courtyard, let the old lady choose a few and save them for the rest of the year."

"Grandma, what if the old lady wants to eat and say it's good? Don't tell me you do it in such a variety of ways?" Xiangyun asked with a smile. Su Nuannuan thought that the old lady could do such a thing, and said decisively: "Let her choose five pieces, and tell the old lady that there are only five pieces, and no more can be made. Some more will be sent to the palace, and some close to the nobles will have to be sent to walk around. If there are more, I will She's about to die of exhaustion, so let her stop killing chickens to get eggs and go fishing in the marsh."

Xiang Yun quickly shook his head and said: "Grandma, how dare I say this? You should go and talk to the old lady yourself."

Su Nuannuan glared at her: "You just say I said it, the old lady is the most reasonable person, and she will definitely not blame you. Of course, your mouth should be sweeter, so that the old lady understands that my time and The energy is limited and cannot be squeezed endlessly, if she likes to eat the rest, we can make it another day, and I have prepared glutinous rice balls with several fillings for the Lantern Festival."

Xiang Yun smiled and said: "Yes, the servant girl went, I guess if there is such a saying, the old lady will not embarrass me." After speaking, she turned around and went out with the plate in her hand, without even looking at Aunt Jiang from the beginning to the end.

Su Nuannuan then straightened her body, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, looked at Aunt Jiang who was kneeling on the ground, and said lightly: "Get up, there is a chair over there, you can move it and sit on it yourself."

Aunt Jiang just stood up, she was already ashamed in her heart and wished she could turn around and leave, but she still had to bear the shame on her face and replied: "No, it's fine for the maid and concubine to stand, the eldest grandma called the maid and concubine to come today. What are your orders? "She wanted to squeeze out a smile, but she couldn't for a long time, so she had to give up.

"Brother Chuan went back yesterday and wore the gloves I made for him. Have you ever taught him a lesson?" Su Nuannuan's tone was still light, and she couldn't tell whether it was asking the teacher to blame or gossip.

"The concubine dare not, my brother was very happy to go back yesterday. How dare the concubine spoil his interest?" Aunt Jiang recalled Duan Maochuan's actions yesterday. I just feel that all my painstaking efforts have been in vain. What's the use of protecting my son in every possible way as a mother? It's better that this femme fatale woman pretends to make a few things for him. He trembled uncontrollably because of his tone.

Su Nuannuan glanced at her and said with a smile: "The children all have those half gloves, so you don't have to worry too much. I'm not very good at needlework, and I'm not very good at sewing. If you have time, you can make two for him. Deputy. According to my thoughts. My brother is so young, so it is good to read in winter. Writing is too hard, especially his hands are still cracked from the cold. But although the child is simple and honest, he has to be strong in his heart, not to mention Brother Sen. After practicing handwriting, he must be unable to sit still. So I didn't say anything, so I had to try to protect his hands. It's a little bit of protection. In addition, I asked your grandfather to go to the imperial hospital to get a prescription for frost cracking. Let him send it to you tonight."

When Su Nuannuan said that Duan Maochuan was still young and didn't want him to write in the winter, Aunt Jiang felt that she had said this in her heart. When it came to her son's temperament, she was very surprised. Going to her room late to deliver the prescription, she finally couldn't help but look up in shock, her lips muttered for a long time, Fang tremblingly said: "My brother has grandma's care, it's his... eight lifetimes of cultivation... a blessing."

"Don't worry, I don't have any plans for Brother Chuan. I called you here today to make you feel at ease. Although I don't have a son and a half until now, I don't bother to snatch other people's sons to raise. I The liking for a few children is just the way an ordinary woman likes children, if you really want me to treat them all as my own children, I won't pretend to be with you, anyway, I can't do it. "

Only then did Aunt Jiang breathe a sigh of relief, and when she looked at Su Nuannuan again, she felt very complicated in her heart, with hatred and fear, but at this time she seemed a little grateful. The reason why the other party asked Duan Tingxuan to deliver the prescription to his room tonight was because he knew that their mother and son were in a bad situation, so this was to let the master make a show for those servants who praised the high and trampled the low: Jiang My aunt hasn't fallen out of favor yet, and brother Chuan is still my master's child, and my master loves him very much.

Su Nuannuan then asked Aunt Jiang a few more questions, nothing more than Duan Maochuan's body recently? What kind of toys and games he usually likes, etc. After the other party answered them one by one, she straightened her face and said in a deep voice: "Listen to you, it seems to be in order, it doesn't seem like you have lost your mind. Brother Chuan, are you so confused? Do you know how much fear and harm your careless words will cause him as a little child? This may accompany him for the rest of his life. Since you love him, How could you be so careless?"

Aunt Jiang's mood was gradually relaxed, but when she heard Su Nuannuan reprimand, she couldn't help being a little confused, and said quickly: "Why did grandma say that? The concubine didn't dare to say anything outrageous to Brother Chuan. Last time I taught Brother Chuan Son, it’s the concubine who deserves to die, the concubine already knows she’s wrong, so I beg grandma to punish the concubine.” She thought Su Nuannuan was trying to settle an old score.

Su Nuannuan told Aunt Jiang what Duan Maochuan cried to herself yesterday, and sure enough, she saw that the other party's face suddenly turned pale and sweat dripped down, and she said earnestly: "A lot of words, to us adults, are just It’s just talking about how to live or how to live after talking about it. But children are different, especially Brother Chuan, after such an incident, he is already very uneasy and guilty, and you can’t help holding him every day, crying why is it better than two mothers If we die together, no one in this house will see us anyway'? Do you know how much fear and sadness these words will cause a child? Fortunately, Brother Chuan has always been honest and innocent. It hasn't scared you crazy yet. If this is another sensitive child, he may be depressed from then on until he grows up and becomes a withdrawn and pessimistic character. At that time, you will only blame God for torturing him like this Your child, but you don’t know that this has nothing to do with God, it’s all your fault.”

"Grandma, concubine... concubine's words are unintentional. I never thought about it. I really didn't intend to harm my brother. He was conceived by concubine in October. He is the flesh and blood and lifeblood of concubine. Concubine How could you harm him..." Aunt Jiang knelt down with a "plop" and broke down in tears.
