After chanting like this for a while, she warned Su Nuannuan that she must cherish the chance of rebirth in the future, do more good deeds, and said a lot of earnest truths before giving up.

Then people from the Marquis of Anping came to deliver ingredients, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came in and worked for half a day. At noon, Duke Ping and his two sons came back, saying that they had found two errands on the street. The Duke of the State was there to watch the door for others. Because the two sons could read and count, one worked as an assistant to the accountant in a cloth shop, and the other became an enlightenment teacher in an ethnology.

Rao Su Nuannuan didn't have much daughter-in-law, but seeing the once prominent and wealthy family fall to this point, she felt uncomfortable, but her brother laughed and said: "What is this? It earns more money than hard labor. Back then Niutoushan, exhausted and frightened, fortunately, there was a brother-in-law who dealt with it, and then took the opportunity of assassination to bring us out. From now on, we can still get money for work, and we can eat and wear warm clothes. It is better than before. I don’t know. How many times, the money for renting this house now was saved at that time. Now it is thanks to him, who helped us speak in front of the emperor, so that we can return to Beijing. You send it back, and by virtue of this, silk and satin, fish, shrimp, vegetables and meat are also sent over. Sister, a man can do this for a woman, it is really sincere, you should cherish it, and you will cherish it in the future If Wan Mo is ignorant, it will hurt his heart."

"I know I know."

Since Su Nuannuan returned to her natal home, she has been read this sentence several times by her parents and brothers, and she can only hear the cocoons in her ears. Her elder brother saw that she was impatient, so he just smiled and stopped talking, so the second brother took up the conversation, and said with a smile while holding a piece of ribs: "Speaking of it. There is another joke today, am I the last one to come back from outside? When we got to the door, someone came to join us, saying that he wanted to sell himself and become a slave in our family. I was surprised that we all lived in this kind of place, so why would anyone join us? I said we were just ordinary people. Then People don't believe it. I went into the yard, and when I looked back, I was still squatting on the street. Let's see how long he can squat."

Mrs. Liu said: "Could it be that some son-in-law sent here to wait on you? You have explained it clearly to him. Don't make people wait blindly."

When the voice fell, the eldest son laughed and said: "I'm afraid people may not be willing to listen to such plain words. If it is really sent by the brothers-in-law, you can get paid just by squatting at the gate of the street. How good is it? It's not as good as going back to work." Strong? Well! I expected our family to be in this situation, and no brother-in-law still expects us to pay wages, right?"

Everyone laughed together. Su Nuannuan said: "This should not be someone sent by our master, otherwise I would know that our master never told me about it."

Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "No matter who sent it, we have to make it clear what to say. As for what they do in the future, that's their business, and it has nothing to do with our family." Minced meat. I sent it to my husband's bowl, and said with a smile, "Try it. This is made by Nuan Nuan, and there is a clever name, it is called Ants Climbing Trees. I just thought it was fresh when I first heard it, and I will see when I make it." , okay, isn’t it just minced meat with vermicelli? She dares to grandstanding like this.”

After the words fell, everyone couldn't help laughing together. Although they are a commoner's family, they are also happy.

"Have you found out what I asked you to inquire about?"

Unlike going to the south of the Yangtze River a few months ago, after Su Nuannuan left Anpinghou's mansion this time, the affairs of the big house were handed over to Aunt Jing as much as she could. Although there is no chaos in the mountains where there are no tigers and monkeys called the king, there is a torrent surging in the dark, but these torrents are too secretive, and no one except a few parties has noticed it.

It was evening at this moment, before Su Nuannuan left home for twelve hours, in the wing room of Chunfengyuan, Aunt Jiang had already started her plan. The matter of asking Rong'er was precisely the key to her plan.

"Yes, the slaves have found out clearly that Caisang's sister-in-law was indeed raped by Grandma Lan's brother, and until now, she called her over if she said she wanted to. The elder brother of Caisang dared not speak out. That's it. She was also sent to Zhuangzi, but met a wolf, and her leg was bitten off, and she almost died. A few days ago, she borrowed money from her servants to treat her brother's wounds. Because my aunt borrowed the money Give it to her, she is very grateful."

Aunt Jiang nodded and said: "I just said that the things here are strange. She is Grandma Lan's personal girl. If she has something to do, she doesn't ask Grandma Lan to borrow money. How did she borrow from us? It can be seen that Grandma's words are good, this person , you should plant more flowers and less thorns, and you will come to you because you are popular in the past, so you will come to you, otherwise, we can't accidentally find out about it."

Speaking of this, she tilted her head and thought for a while, then lowered her voice and said: "In your opinion, can Cai Sang be allowed to do this?"

Rong'er hesitated and said: "This is a matter of life and death. If one is not good, you will be killed. Picking mulberries may not be willing to do it. However, the slaves usually meet her occasionally, and they have heard her complain when they talk. As a dowry girl, how can you gain the trust of Grandma Lan? Leave her aside? Auntie, listen, is there any dissatisfaction with Grandma Lan in these words?"

Aunt Jiang sneered and said: "Cai Sang is still a good girl, how dare Grandma Lan let her know about her private affairs? If she can't do it well, she still feels guilty. Naturally, the shrewd and clever cage smoke is more convenient for doing these bad things. Said In the end, Cai Sang was able to come here as a dowry back then, but it was also for the sake of being a favorite of the roommates. It's just that Grandma Lan relied on her beauty and jealousy, so she never let go. Until now, as she grew older, she still There is no one who is entrusted to her for life, and the resentment towards Grandma Lan in my heart is probably going to be even higher."

Rong'er smiled and said: "Isn't it? When I mentioned this matter once, Cai Sang's words were full of anxiety. I didn't understand it at the time, but this time I found out by accident by inquiring about her sister-in-law. It turned out that when she was still working as a girl by Grandma Lan's side, she was taken by the young master in the Duke's mansion. She went to ask Grandma Lan's mother, but failed, and was finally brought to the Hou's mansion. The servant pondered, picking mulberries If you are in such a hurry to match someone, you are afraid that it will fall into the hands of her young master again. To be honest, he is really a hungry ghost. How could such a frivolous thing happen?"

Aunt Jiang's eyes shifted, and she said softly: "This matter can also be used. Tomorrow, you will keep an eye on Grandma Lan's movements for me. When you see where she has gone, tell me. You must take care of Caimulberry again." One knife."
