Rong'er looked at her master with admiration. Just ten days ago, when Aunt Jiang said that Xu Ranyun would be harmed but she would not hurt herself, Rong'er thought she was talking nonsense. It is already impossible for an egg to touch a stone. Even if you have a magic weapon, you can Let the stone shatter, but you are only an egg, how can you keep yourself whole? What is this nonsense
But now Rong'er doesn't think so at all.
Three days before Su Nuannuan returned to her natal home, when Caisang suddenly came to ask her to borrow money, Aunt Jiang seemed to be a person who finally seized the opportunity to act, and ordered her to inquire about the reason for Caisang to borrow money, and then I told her about my plan. Although it was only a rough idea and the specific steps were still to be determined, Ronger was amazed by just this idea: after serving Aunt Jiang for five years, she was used to seeing this woman's forbearance, cowardice and even There are some stupid faces, but never thought that the other party has such a meticulous and delicate scheming. Could it be that if you don't sing, you will already be a blockbuster
The next day was a sunny day. In the garden of the Hou Mansion in late autumn, the chrysanthemums were not as lush as before, but they were still blooming vigorously and tenaciously. Xu was a little anxious waiting, so Xue Zhilan likes to take a walk in the garden these days, and therefore, when she was walking in the garden today, she met Aunt Jiang.
Although Xue Zhilan and Xu Ranyun, former enemies, are now in the honeymoon period because they want to work together to fight Su Nuannuan, but enemies are enemies, and the honeymoon period cannot last forever. Grandma Lan understands this very well. So she doesn't mind making friends with Aunt Jiang, and laying down a pawn for fighting Xu Ranyun in the future. Don't look at Su Nuannuan now, but Grandma Lan has already thought about what will happen after she is finished. It's not that far-fetched.
So the two found a pavilion and sat down. Xue Zhilan expressed her concern for the current situation of Aunt Jiang's mother and son, and sighed a few more words, saying that Xu Ranyun's actions were too reckless. If Aunt Jiang hadn't known her true face, she might have been deceived by her considerate and caring attitude.
Aunt Jiang didn't want to hear these hypocritical words, so after a few words, she changed the subject, pretending to be worried and said, "I'm having trouble making up my mind about something. But grandma has returned to her mother's house. I went to ask Aunt Jing, but she said this It's my housework, so I have to make up my own mind. For others, it's not easy to ask about it. Grandma Lan comes from a family, so her knowledge is naturally very comparable, so I want to ask you for an opinion."
Xue Zhilan heard this. She was happy in her heart, she hoped to have a chance to "solve worries and problems" for Aunt Jiang. But there was no clue on his face, he only asked in doubt: "What's the trouble? Tell me first."
Aunt Jiang sighed, and said to Rong'er: "Go and watch at a distance, if you see someone, you can send a message quickly." After speaking, Rong'er walked away. Then he said frowningly: "Grandma knows that although I have no maids and concubines, there are still a few brothers and sisters in Earl Chengming's mansion. A few days ago. Because the eldest grandma rewarded me with a few things, I I had a few spare cash in my hand. I went back and looked at them, but unexpectedly, a cousin of mine took a fancy to Rong'er. His wife died the year before last, and he hadn't reunited until now, so he asked me to ask for Rong'er. Theoretically, it's time for Rong'er to marry someone else, but I'm a bit reluctant to let her stay by my side for so many years. But when I think about it, it's my cousin who is very close. Contrary to his face? I can't help him now, just such a little thing? Rong'er is a girl I know all about. Although it's a pity to ration him, it's still fat and water. So I really can't make up my mind. Let grandma see it, but what should I do?"
Aunt Jiang knew Xue Zhilan's temperament very well, so she was inclined to give Rong'er to her elder brother in terms of words. Sure enough, Xue Zhilan followed her tone and smiled: "You are really confused, what is a girl? You That cousin is your natal family, and he wants to spread branches and leaves for your Jiang family. He said something that shouldn't be said. If he has a wife and son, he may trouble you less, but if he can't get this girl, in the future You won't be able to bear it if you come to pester me twice in three days."
The cage smoke on the side also smiled and said: "Speaking of which, Auntie's brother is not too bad to match Rong'er. If Auntie is not willing, she will just make up for it in the future. Or ask Grandma to take your brothers over in the future." , do things in our mansion, and save my aunt from being controlled by others."
These were provocative words, Xue Zhilan looked at her confidant girl calmly, her eyes were full of admiration. The master and servant were only following Aunt Jiang's wishes to set up traps, but they didn't realize that Cai Sang standing behind Xue Zhilan had turned pale and her eyes were full of fear.
But Aunt Jiang said with a smile: "Girl Longyan's words are also reasonable, but I also have difficulties. My cousin was doted on by my uncle since he was a child, so his conduct is not very good. Although he does not steal or rob, he is a bit... Sex, for example, my cousin, his mother is the lady in charge in the mansion, Douding has more power, he is good, after getting married, he got the two little girls in the family, it's not that Grandma Lan doesn't know Grandma If I recruit such a person, grandma won’t beat me to death if something bad happens in the future? So absolutely not.”
Xue Zhilan's eyes became brighter when she heard this, and she called God help me in her heart, so she said with a smile: "You are too cautious, although Grandma is very powerful, you will not be punished for this, you are also practicing at the gate of the mansion. Those who have lived before, why don’t they know the rules here? The two little girls are the people in your cousin’s house, and your cousin is the master. It’s not a matter of saying what to do with them? As long as he knows how to behave, Don't provoke people who shouldn't be provoked, it's absolutely safe. Don't worry, as long as your cousin doesn't provoke people who shouldn't be provoked, and grandma will punish you for such a trivial matter, I will intercede for you. "
Aunt Jiang said happily: "After all, it's grandma, the lady of our family, and she has a wide range of knowledge. Although I have been an aunt these years, I can't get rid of the idea of a slave. Even my cousin, I also think he is a slave. Yangzi, how can you hug left and right? Now that I think about it, what grandma said is reasonable. Since she was a girl for him, he is also a master to those two little girls. He also doesn’t have to worry about food and clothing.”
After hearing these words, Xue Zhilan only thought that she had spoken to Aunt Jiang's heart, and was she still afraid that they would not be able to get closer to each other from now on? In order to show that he was honest with each other, he also said angrily: "Auntie is right, maybe it is the method used by those two little girls. You have seen too much about this house, what else do you not understand? Like me Brother, now his reputation in the capital is probably rotten. Everyone says that he is lustful, and the maids in the mansion will not let him go. But I don’t know that all the maids have a clever mind, looking forward to climbing high branches, My brother is a fool, thinking that everyone really likes him so much that he is not worthy of disappointment, so he came and went again and again, making the house a mess. So, the master is certainly at fault, but sometimes, those servants with ulterior motives are even more hateful."
"It's just like that, grandma sees it clearly."
Aunt Jiang was overjoyed. Although she knew Xue Zhilan well, she never expected that the other party would be so cooperative. She followed her own words and said everything she wanted her to say, even more than that. Immediately, he also pretended to be enlightened, and started talking enthusiastically with Xue Zhilan, and suddenly heard the cage smoke saying from the side: "Cai Sang, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"
"Who is crying?"
Cai Sang's voice was quite normal, he wiped his eyes with his hand, and smiled, stomping his feet and said, "My eyes shed tears when the wind blows, you don't know that, the gust of wind blowing just now, I just felt some pain in my body. It's cold, sure enough, tears are coming out of my eyes. Grandma, aunt, if you want to talk, you might as well go back to the house and talk, so as not to suffer from the cold here, it's almost winter."
Only then did Long Yan smile and said: "Yes, you have this problem, I forgot about it for a while." After finishing speaking, Aunt Jiang said curiously: "Speaking of which, Long Yan and Miss Caimulberry are also the age that should be married. Yes, I don’t know if it’s approved? If not, why don’t I help you take a good look? There are a few good boys in our house.”
Xue Zhilan's expression froze, then she smiled and said, "Don't put your mind on the two of them, I have already made arrangements for them."
Aunt Jiang said regretfully: "It's such a pity. Especially the mulberry girl, with her appearance and temperament, it is enough to be a young mistress in a rich and noble family waiting for you. But I don't know who in our house can have that blessing. Grandma loves it. Tell me, don’t give it to Mama Liu’s youngest son, otherwise it’s unreasonable. Her eldest son will marry the red lotus next to Grandma. Even I would feel wronged."
Xue Zhilan sneered and said: "You also said that the appearance and temperament of our mulberry picking are enough to wait for others to be young mistresses. How can I be willing to match her with a boy casually? It is necessary to match her with a good marriage so that she can wear it for the rest of her life. Wearing gold and silver, silk and satin, it is not in vain for her to serve me by my side with the posture of a young and young flower willow."
While talking, he stood up and smiled at Aunt Jiang: "Sure enough, I feel a little cold at the moment, are you cold? If it's cold, go to my Qiuyun Pavilion and sit for a while?"
Aunt Jiang knew that it was one thing for Xue Zhilan to make friends with her, but she didn't want to make a big show of it. After all, the other party and Xu Ranyun were walking around frequently, anyway, she had already achieved her goal today, so she smiled and said: "Forget it, I still won't go." Now, in case I meet Grandma Yun along the way, I don’t know how she will be squeezed out. Grandma will go back first, and I will go back to Chunfeng Garden.”
As he spoke, he respectfully stepped aside and let Xue Zhilan go first, and when she passed by, Fang pretended to glance at Cai Sang casually, but saw that her face was calm, and there was no emotion in her eyes. Aunt Jiang couldn't help but sighed, and wondered to herself that I was heartbroken by Grandma Yun that day, and when I thought about breaking up with her completely, did I look like this pool of stagnant water? hehe! The masters are all aloof, so why would they care about the life and death of a slave? That being the case, let you see the abilities of the slaves. Speaking of it, it’s no wonder that we are slaves. Since you said you are confidantes, if you don’t love us as confidants, how can you blame us for devouring the master
While thinking about it, seeing that Xue Zhilan had disappeared, Fang and Rong'er went out through another door, secretly thinking that the plan could be carried out after two more days of careful planning.
