What Grandma Zheng wanted to say or not, only aroused Dong Hui's thirst for knowledge even more.
"If you have any ideas, tell me!"
"Actually, madam, it's easy if you don't want Liu Niang and my uncle to meet, as long as you don't give them a chance to meet." Aunt Zheng said slowly.
Dong Hui didn't know, "But you just said that they are all in this house, and they can't see each other when they look up, so how can they stop them."
"Then it would be nice if one of them doesn't live at home." Aunt Zheng answered quietly.
Dong Hui frowned and said dissatisfied: "I asked Ning'er to come and take care of me, but I asked them to live separately as newlyweds. How can this happen? If word spreads, there might be a lot of gossip about me! No, no, no! This is absolutely true. no."
She shook her head desperately.
Aunt Zheng continued: "I didn't say that I wouldn't let my uncle live in our house."
"Then what do you mean..." Dong Hui finally understood what Aunt Zheng meant, but her brows furrowed even more tightly.
In the end, he shook his head and rejected the plan: "Qingxue is also my daughter. If she doesn't live at home, where else can she live? Even if I don't like this matter, I can't drive her away because of it. I can't do such a thing. "
Not to mention Dong Hui's disapproval, even if she could really be cruel, she would never be able to pass Shi Junhe's test.
Aunt Zheng knew Shi Qingxue's status in this family, so she changed her explanation, "Madam has misunderstood what I mean. Of course I didn't mean to drive Liu Niang out of the house. This is definitely not possible, but our house is in another courtyard." That’s all. Let Liu Niang go to another hospital to recuperate for a while. After you give birth to your son safely, I will bring Liu Niang back after the aunt and others leave the house."
Seeing that Dong Hui's face seemed to be relaxed, she slowly added: "This is not something that has happened before."
When she was young, Shi Qingxue had a serious quarrel with several ladies, so she simply lived in a separate courtyard to hide away. Of course, the difference between the two things is that the latter was Shi Qingxue's initiative to go to another hospital, but the former was requested by Dong Hui.
But when Grandma Zheng said this, it seemed as if there was a precedent.
Dong Hui had many thoughts in her heart: She was pregnant now and really needed someone to accompany her. Shi Baoning was undoubtedly the best choice - on this issue, Shi Qingxue, who had been deeply loved by her in the past, could not compare with her. .
So whether it was for the sake of the child in her belly or for the future of the Shi family, Shi Baoning had to enter the house, and it was time for Wen Renchi to return.
Thinking about it this way, the only option was to let Shi Qingxue go out and live for a while first.
"Even if you really want Qingxue to go out for a while, there must be a reason, right? The real reason cannot be given. Without a decent excuse, the master will definitely not agree." Dong Hui muttered in embarrassment.
Aunt Zheng showed a relaxed smile and said the answer she had prepared long ago: "Isn't there a ready-made reason for this? You are still pregnant with the master's child. If you want the mother and child to be safe, naturally you need someone to sincerely pray to her. Buddha prays. Your patient is pregnant and it is inconvenient to leave the house, and your aunt has to take care of you. Then there is only... "
She didn't say any more, but Dong Hui already understood what Aunt Zheng meant.
As long as you tell Shi Qingxue about going to the family temple to fast and pray for blessings, Shi Qingxue will definitely be willing; and this is also a common practice among nobles. It is a ready-made excuse that will not arouse suspicion and can also earn Shi Qingxue some money. good reputation.
It really kills multiple birds with one stone.
Dong Hui finally showed the most relaxed smile in such a long time, "What a good idea you have! Use this excuse to isolate Qingxue and A Chi, and outsiders won't think much about it. It not only cuts off their evil thoughts, but also preserves their Reputation…”
But thinking of the poor environment in the family temple, Dong Hui couldn't help but sigh, "My Qingxue hasn't suffered much since she was a child. I really can't bear to let her stay in a place like the family temple for two months." !Azheng, don’t you have any other good ideas?”
Aunt Zheng shrugged and said there was nothing she could do.
Seeing that Dong Hui was really worried, she advised: "If Madam is really worried about Liu Niang's hardship, then ask more people to bring some good things from home and arrange them properly. Although it is not as good as our home, it is still not as good as ours." It will make Liu Niang suffer."
Now Dong Hui has the final say in the whole back house of the Shi family. What to send to the family temple is not something she can decide with just one word.
If there is not enough time, if there is enough time, it is not impossible to make the family temple a more suitable place to live than the Shiguo Duke's mansion.
So when Shi Qingxue really went to the family temple, she wouldn't suffer much.
Dong Huijing was finally moved by Grandma Zheng's persuasion.
She frowned and pondered for a long time, and finally nodded and ordered: "Then go and call Qingxue over now. I want to settle this matter before Ning'er returns home. I can't let anyone else take these two things." Things connect together.”
Aunt Zheng nodded in agreement and quickly retreated.
As soon as she left Dongyuan, she found a maid to deliver a message to Luotong Pavilion, while she walked to a certain corner.
In the shadow of a corner of Dongyuan, someone was already waiting there. When they saw Aunt Zheng, they asked: "How did things go?"
Aunt Zheng smiled and replied: "Old slave, there is no reason why it can't be done. Madam has just sent someone to invite Miss Six, and Miss Six should be moved to the family temple tomorrow. Go back and tell Auntie, please She can rest assured that when she enters the mansion, Miss Six will never be seen in the mansion again."
The man also smiled and praised: "Auntie has indeed entrusted the right person. I will thank Aunt Zheng for her help here."
While talking, the man took out a heavy purse from his pocket and quietly stuffed it into Nanny Zheng's hand.
Just as Aunt Zheng was about to refuse, the man said again, "Aunt Zheng, don't refuse. Auntie said that you deserve all this. After the deed is completed, Auntie will have a big reward. In addition, Auntie There is another thing I need to ask of you, Aunt Zheng!"
Aunt Zheng hurriedly expressed her position: "If you have anything to do, ma'am, just ask me."
"Auntie said that although she asked you to do these things for her, she didn't mean to target anyone, but some things had to be done. These things must not affect her relationship with Miss Six, so she also asked Aunt Zheng to We will keep this matter secret. If Miss Six goes to the family temple in the future, if she needs anything, please take care of me."
The man spoke in a tactful and considerate way. Aunt Zheng naturally understood the deep meaning of the other person's words and nodded quickly: "I will definitely do it. I will do it. Please go back and tell the aunt, please rest assured. I will never do it." She will be disappointed."
The man got the guarantee and finally left with satisfaction.
Aunt Zheng stood there for a long time, waiting for the people to go away, then she said "poof" to the ground, and sighed: "I have become a bitch and still have to erect an arch, all those nasty things in the big house, Who doesn't know who? Why are you so noble and different? Are you plotting against your own sister
If you really care about your sister, don't stab her in the back! What you say now sounds better than what you sing, but isn't that the same thing? "
Thinking of the things Shi Qingxue had done for this person, Aunt Zheng felt that Shi Qingxue was not worthy of her responsibility. But since she accepted the favor, no matter what she thought in her heart, she still had to do what 'should be done'.
Naturally, Shi Qingxue didn't know that others had already decided her life for the next two or three months. By the time she found out, it was Dong Hui who had taken care of everything and announced the matter directly to her.
That’s right, announced directly!
Dong Hui believed in her daughter's filial piety towards her, but she was still worried about accidents and long nights, so she asked her servants to prepare their luggage without consulting Shi Qingxue in advance.
When talking to Shi Qingxue, she symbolically asked Shi Qingxue if she wanted to go, and said that if she didn't want to go, she wouldn't force him.
Shi Qingxue sounded strange, but she thought that this matter could be regarded as a common practice among the powerful people in Kyoto, and to some extent, it had even become a standard for comparison among them.
So she agreed without much thought.
Because Dong Hui arranged things in a hurry, Qingxue only had time to let Xia Mang briefly pack her bags, and then sent Dong Shuang to Prince Rui's Mansion to deliver the message. Her people were already on the carriage heading to the family temple.
When Shi Qingxue went to the family temple this time, her treatment was naturally very different from when Shi Baoyan was escorted to the family temple.
But even so, once the news spread, it was still calm 'on the surface', but it was already rough 'under the water'.
Dong Hui had a wonderful idea, but others were not fools, especially those who knew Wen Renchi's thoughts.
The first person to attack was Shi Junhe.
Dong Hui was afraid that Shi Junhe would object, so she did it in a hurry without telling Shi Junhe in advance.
By the time Shi Junhe returned to Xiachao, Shi Qingxueren had already gone to the Tanshan family temple.
Shi Junhe was immediately furious: "Hui Niang, what do you mean by this? You don't know where the family temple is. How can you let Qingxue go to a place like that and suffer?"
Dong Hui also used the answer she had prepared before and said: "Qingxue is going to the family temple to pray for the child in my belly. It is worth the hardship. Besides, I have asked Aunt Zheng to go with her to clean up and buy more. If you need daily necessities, make up for them immediately. You will never treat her badly.
She had agreed to this herself. She wanted to show her filial piety, so could I still stop her? "
Her words were well-reasoned and high-sounding.
After hearing this, Shi Junhe sneered, "Hui Niang, you and I are a couple, and I still don't understand your thoughts? Isn't it because you don't want Qingxue to stay at home and are afraid that she will meet Chi'er in the future, so you deliberately Did she come that far?"
When Dong Hui was told what she was thinking, she looked stern and froze for a long time, then reluctantly said: "I, I am doing this for her own good!"
After a pause, she seemed to have found the confidence again, and spoke confidently: "It seems that you have also seen the same thing about Qingxue and Chi'er... I am not doing this as a last resort to prevent something irreparable from happening in the future. It
You are blaming me! If I didn't really think about her, why would I rather be that evil person and stop this? "
Dong Hui wiped her tears sadly as she spoke, "Are you the only one who knows how much you love your daughter that I don't love her anymore? Isn't there nothing I can do..."
In the end, it all became an accusation against Shi Junhe.
Shi Junhe was afraid of irritating Dong Hui, so he had to hold back even if he had something in his stomach. He quickly admitted his mistake and then tried his best to coax Dong Hui to stop crying.
He then sighed as if he was extremely tired: "Hey, although you have good intentions, didn't you realize that Qingxue didn't notice this at all?"
Dong Hui rubbed her eyes for a moment, then looked up at Shi Junhe: "You mean..."
Shi Junhe nodded, "It's easy to guess Qingxue's thoughts. She has always regarded Chi'er as her biological brother. The two have been close since they were pretty, and now they are close but not romantic. Don't talk about that kind of thoughts. Well, I'm afraid I haven't even thought about it.
Have you forgotten that when you wanted to marry Wen Renchi for her, she was so frightened that she refused?"
