Painting Tang Jiao

Chapter 126
"The eldest lady is doing well now. She drank a big bowl of millet porridge in the morning, ate two spring rolls, and slept well." The little maid said with a smile.

"That would be the best." Ling Lu smiled slightly, but she also knew in her heart that this must be the eldest wife's words to the outside world. She, a little maid, could hardly get close to her, so how could she know what the eldest wife ate.

For more than a year, the eldest wife has been served by Mama Cui almost alone.It was only when Qing Huan went there occasionally that the eldest wife ate too much. As a result, every time Qing Huan went there, Cui's mother would definitely let someone eat, and she hoped that the eldest wife would eat more because of this.

For the eldest wife's sudden closeness to the girl, Linglu and Aunt Liu discussed it for the first time, and even mentioned it when they went to Cheng's and Rong's houses several times.After hearing this, the people from Cheng's and Rong's houses only said that if there was really no malice, it would be fine to get closer.

At first Linglu didn't understand very well, and it didn't take long for Xia's mother to mention that the girl was going to have to get her first degree.Linglu only vaguely understood, but she understood. Every time she accompanied the eldest wife to her place, they were all cautious, lest the eldest wife suddenly tear her face and become fierce.

The little maid said a few words before raising her mind.

"Grandma Jiang San came over. The eldest lady said she didn't know if Miss Seven was awake. If she was awake, let's have a drink together and talk for a while."

"Grandma Jiang San is here?" Qing Huan had just approached the door with Xiang Nong You Yuan, just as she heard the next sentence.

The little maid hurriedly turned her head to salute Qing Huan.

Qing Huan waved her hand and asked again: "Grandma Jiang San is here this time?"

The little maid immediately became nervous.

Qing Huan couldn't help but pat herself, blaming herself for asking the wrong person.

It's just that Qing Huan's action scared the little maid even more.

Qing Huan was a little annoyed, You Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Our girl is just teasing you, don't be afraid. Why don't you go back and talk to the eldest lady first, our girl will come over later."

Qing Huan nodded.

The little maid blessed her body again, and then she had to run out of the house as if she had seen a ghost.

Qing Huan looked a little helpless, tightened her clothes and walked inside.

Ling Lu hurriedly replaced the hand stove she was holding with a piece of good silver charcoal, repacked it, put on a cotton sleeve and handed it to Qing Huan.

"Why is Grandma Jiang San here again?" Qing Huan muttered.

It made a few maids laugh.

Grandma Jiang's husband's family is a fifth-rank Shaoqing, and her favorite thing to do in life is to solicit matchmakers, and she doesn't know how to get acquainted with the eldest wife.

Every time she comes to the mansion, the eldest wife always finds Qing Huan to accompany her.

Qing Huan is the person who directly faces the eldest wife, and she has to admit that although she has been a little false to her for more than a year, it is more sincere.Qing Huan's age is also about the same, the eldest wife called her over just to let Grandma Jiang see that there is such a girl in Yan's house, and then spread the word to other houses in Beijing through Grandma Jiang's mouth.

I have to say that this method is much more reliable than marrying the second girl in the past, and I don't know if the eldest wife has learned a lot of wisdom.

Qing Huan dawdled in the house for half an hour before walking slowly towards the main courtyard with her hands in her arms and a windbreaker with a hood wrapped around her body, occasionally stopping to admire the scenery along the way.

Mancao knew that her girl wanted to delay time, so she didn't stop her from watching.

It's just a stretch of road that can't take half an hour anyway.

When Qing Huan arrived, she could hear Grandma Jiang San's extremely hearty laughter in the yard.

Qing Huan gave a wry smile, she hasn't left yet.

Just getting closer, as if hearing other voices.

Qing Huan was puzzled. At this time, Cui's mother came out from the inside, and when she saw Qing Huan, she called her aunt.

"Mother Cui, what's inside?"

Cui's mother rolled her eyes: "Aunt Qing brought the third girl to pay her respects to the wife. It was a coincidence that she met Grandma Jiang San and stayed here for a while."

How could it be such a coincidence that the Eldest Master now spends less and less time in the Eldest Wife's house, and indirectly stays more with Aunt Qing.In this way, although Aunt Qing is proud, she will not take the initiative to run in front of the eldest wife to make trouble.It is almost impossible to see her or the third girl will come to this main courtyard on weekdays.As soon as Grandma Jiang San arrived, she came over eagerly to say hello.Sima Zhao's heart...

"Is it Seven Girls outside?"

Qing Huan paused for a moment, adjusted her clothes carefully, responded crisply, and then walked into the house.

"Seventh girl, come and sit here." The first lady smiled and waved to Qing Huan when she saw Qing Huan.

Grandma Jiang San has been in the room all the time, so she naturally knows who the eldest wife is really enthusiastic about and who she is smiling at, so she weighed it in her heart and said with a smile: "Seventh niece, I haven't seen you for a while, the change is even greater."

"What's the change? It's just that the little girl has grown up a bit." Even though she said so, the smile on the corner of her mouth made the third girl look very dazzling.

"Isn't it getting prettier?"

When the two sang together, Qing Huan couldn't help lowering her face.

His complexion is hot, and if you touch it, you will find that it is very hot. It's really not shy, but very guilty. This is barely a delicate face, and it can't be called beautiful. It's better to say that you are looking at it with jealousy. My own three girls.

The eldest wife must have seen it almost, and then said: "Seventh girl has no face, but the third girl in our house is just at a good age."

The implication is very obvious.

Except for the eldest wife, everyone in the room looked surprised.

The eldest wife took a sip of the teacup calmly and calmly: "It's also my fault. I have always loved the third girl too much. I kept her for a few more years because I picked her up and down. I don't know why. People outside thought that I was reluctant to part with this daughter, so there was no news about it."

"...But even if I don't want my daughter to leave home, I still have to think about her future."

"That's the truth." After all, Grandma Jiang San often walks outside, she quickly reacted and replied with a smile: "This matter, others just look at it on the surface. Sometimes it is so coincidental that it is easy to misunderstand. Since I and Madam, you know each other once, so you have to be cheeky and help a bunch."

No matter how stupid Aunt Qing was, she understood the meaning. Although she was still wary of the eldest lady, she still couldn't help but smile.

"The sons and daughters are all fasting, and it's time to stay and stay for revenge."

The third girl kept looking at the eldest wife suspiciously.

The eldest wife ignored her and ignored her.

It's just that anyone with eyes can tell that Grandma Jiang San doesn't like it, but since she answered this, she just smiled.

After not sitting for long, Grandma Jiang San said that she had something to do in the mansion and she had to go back.

The eldest lady got up and sent it to the gate of the courtyard in person, and Qing Huan and Aunt Qing followed along.

Cui's mother sent Grandma Jiang San to the second gate for a carriage instead of the eldest wife.

"The two of you will go too, and I've fulfilled your wish. Stay with me, I'm upset, and you're not feeling well, so I won't stay anymore." The eldest lady pulled Qing Huan up again back to the house.

Qing Huan was dragged away, only looked back, the third girl's head was slightly drooping, the expression on her face changed again and again, before she could see that she had left hand in hand with Aunt Qing.

Qing Huan sighed inwardly, poured hot tea on her own initiative after entering the room, and went to serve pastries in front of the two of them.

The eldest lady was also used to it, so she squeezed a pastry and put it in her mouth.

Qing Huan hurriedly brought tea to her.

The eldest lady ate the pastry and drank tea, and then said slowly: "But why do I do this?"

Today's eldest wife is more and more indifferent, the memory of calling Qing Huan a little bitch in Rongshoutang is getting longer and longer, and she doesn't know good times and bad times, it seems that Qing Huan is getting more and more used to today's eldest wife.

Qing Huan nodded while holding the teacup.

The eldest lady smiled lightly: "I said a word just now, but I said it from my heart. If this person keeps it, there will be hatred if she keeps it. Although looking at her now, I'm afraid she has already hated her. me."

"...But what is my identity? She is just a concubine. No matter how favored my biological mother is, she still won't be able to get on the stage. If I don't speak up, she can only keep it. Now she can only hold my baby. The thigh begged me to show kindness and marry her to a good husband's family."

"I just sent a kind heart today."

"Of course, this is only the lightest reason." The eldest lady looked at Qing Huan: "Do you understand the principle of orderly seniority?"

Madam, does this mean to start teaching yourself how to deal with affairs in the back room?
Qing Huan was slightly taken aback, then nodded.

The eldest wife smiled, and seemed very satisfied with Qing Huan's attitude: "After Wei'er got married, Yan Yan could see each other officially, and the marriage was ready, and the same goes for the few people behind. And the same is true for your sisters, you Already 14 years old, a year has passed very quickly, just like in the blink of an eye your second sister has..."

"Eldest lady..."

The eldest lady paused, and continued: "Liu Yatou is another reason, so she can go to Uncle Ruyang's mansion when she still has her sister in front of her. But unless the girls in Yan's mansion have no other choice or for the sake of Yan's mansion, why not?" None of them will become a concubine, at least they are all upright ladies. A marriage is not easy. It takes time, manpower and material resources from the finalization to the ceremony. There are three girls, four girls, and five girls in front of you, and you only have It will be a year to get the first degree."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Qing Huan naturally understands that what the eldest wife is doing now is to make way for herself, and it doesn't matter if the third girl has been staying with her as a wife. Because the third girl is getting older and older, she will let the fourth and fifth girls in the back decide the marriage first.

But after that, Qing Huan might have been in the first few years.

The most precious thing for a woman is those few years, the so-called young age is just like this.

Only when the third girl is married off early can the people behind them start making arrangements intensively.
