Inheritance policy

Chapter 65 Struggling

"The eldest lady didn't take Yueqiao and Yuefang out today, but took Man'er out instead."

Lianyu came back after a while, and helped Xing Zhao fasten a silk patch with happy eyebrows, showing hesitation, and continued: "It's that talkative girl yesterday, maybe the lady is looking at her If you don't have any injuries today, come here to serve her in a hurry, and praise her if you want to."

Xing Zhao nodded, doing it according to Da Furen's personality, and motioned her to continue talking.

"But Mrs. Huang said that as soon as Mrs. Min came back, she locked herself in the room, and no one should knock on the door. Mrs. Huang guessed that she was talking to Mrs. Min and thought of Uncle again, and she was sad. Later, I Went to ask Man'er, but Man'er faltered and said that Mrs. Min and Mrs. Da were talking with others, and she didn't know what the two of them said." Lian Yu flexibly tied a Thousand Fortune Knot, The words are also explained.

"Where is Lord Hou? How about the battle report in the northwest?" Xing Zhao nodded after listening, and asked this side again.

Lian Yu's eyes dimmed, and she didn't answer.

I still haven't found it, and my uncle hasn't appeared yet, and my mother has almost become a frightened bird.
Xing Zhao frowned tightly, and finally slowed down, walked to the main hall of Rongshou Hall, and complained to Mrs. Tai, "... I am really worried about my mother. Mother is always careless, you know .My uncle is still in the northwest, and my aunt has been grounded again. Hearing from the boss that my mother came back from Min's house, she is in a very bad mood."

After Mrs. Tai pondered for a while, she nodded, and turned to comfort Xing Zhao: "I have already handed over the booklet, but since Queen Mother Gu has made up her mind to order the ban on Queen Fang's feet, I'm afraid it will not be so easy to see me." Thinking of General Cai again Listening to Zhang's mother coming to report that "the fourth girl didn't loosen her brows when she fell asleep, she didn't cry, but she kept tossing and turning, and she didn't sleep peacefully." She felt sorry for the little granddaughter, if Fang was half as calm as her sister , where children need such hard work!
"It won't help if you go." Mrs. Tai sighed.

Xingzhao bowed his head, shook his head slightly, and murmured: "It's an extraordinary time. I feel at ease by guarding my mother. She can also feel at ease when she is accompanied by someone."

Mrs. Tai had no choice but to wave her hand, signaling Xing Zhao to go quickly.

Xingzhao bowed his knees and saluted, Mrs. Tai watched the little granddaughter's small figure change from clear to blurred, the spinning beads in her hand stopped, and she sighed "Amitabha".

Mother Zhang who was standing beside her comforted her slowly: "Do you still remember what Mrs. Jingyi said? My uncle has a full heaven and a round earth. He is born with a good life. He has always been able to turn bad luck into good luck." Seeing Mrs. Tai frowning and shaking her head, and hearing Mrs. Tai say with regret and worry: "I'm worried about Ah Fu and Xing Zhao. When Yun Xiang sent the post to the palace, I heard Mrs. Yun from the Ministry of Internal Affairs say that the Empress The two even asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs for rose soap beans and fermented honey fragrance. They came from the same family, one mother and one compatriot, and faced the same danger. There are still requests for soap beans with any fragrance, but what about Ah Fu?"

Mother Zhang listened quietly and did not speak.

"Whether the Fang family can survive this hurdle is one thing to say, but the performance of the two sisters is different. If the Fang family falls, it will inevitably implicate the empress. Our He family is not a villain. For many years, life has always been smooth and smooth. Although Hou Ye didn't like her very much, he didn't neglect her. She had a son and a daughter, and I pressed He Yan not to let him do it. She once lived her life like that. The Fang family is in decline, Fang Qi is gone, and the queen is powerless. Where will she have the confidence to support her huge family in the future? If Afu is half of the queen's character, I will treat this dilapidated body Defeated, you have to support your daughter-in-law and cheer for her, but Ah Fu is like a Dou who cannot be supported."

The more Zhang's mother listened, the more frightened she became. She pursed her lips and dared not speak. This is not her place to interrupt!

Mrs. Tai looked at the direction of the main courtyard with pity on her face, and continued to murmur: "I have been dreaming repeatedly for the past few days that when the emperor came to the throne, the Miao'an Rebellion has not yet gone, and the Xungui family is in danger. The one who seized the title, the one who was exiled. At that time, the old marquis was clamoring to change his son. I lived in fear every day, fearing that the officials would suddenly come to the yard to arrest people, and fear that the emperor would be disturbed by the old marquis. I am impatient, I will hate going to the He family from now on, and I am even more afraid that Ah Yan will become a concubine. But I can only laugh, move around with a smile, pass posts into the palace over and over again with a smile, propose to Ayan with a smile, laugh I want to give medicine to the old marquis—I want to laugh and see that old beast close his eyes in front of me."

Huang's mother was trembling all over, and she held Mrs. Tai's right hand tightly, and said with a sob: "Don't think about it, everything is fine, everything is fine!"

"When you are at the top of the mountain, you can see all the small mountains, but there is a saying called 'the heights are too cold'." Mrs. Tai closed her eyes and smiled, shaking her head lightly, with helplessness and sadness in her wry smile: "Ah Fu It's not worth it, it's not worth it for me to worry about her again. It's even more impossible for her to take advantage of the He family that I struggled to maintain with blood on my hands."

Zhang's mother burst into tears suddenly, she seemed to understand something, but she was regretting something.

Even though Xing Zhao walked in a hurry, he still missed the conversation in the main courtyard.

"Sister Lianyu, who is next to the fourth young lady, came to ask me, and I just pretended that I didn't know." Man'er stood on the green brick in the middle of the main hall with her hands tied, at a loss as she spoke, and glanced at the eldest lady. Seeing that the eldest lady didn't blame her, she breathed a sigh of relief.

At any rate, there was no accident when I went out today, Man'er was thankful, raised her head again, and said indignantly: "Madam is also very good-natured, this matter is not so kind in any family!"

"Don't tell anyone about today's affairs." The eldest lady was lying on the warm couch with a sheepskin felt blanket on her body, her expression was gloomy, and she added: "Whether it is the fourth girl who asks, Mrs. Tai You don’t know if it’s Master Hou who asked, you don’t know anything about it.”

When the eldest lady said the word "Hou Ye", her voice clearly weakened.Ying Yi made her in a mess, Ying Yi was aggressive in front of her, Ying Yi was threatening her, she was weak all her life, but she still couldn't ask Ying Yi for mercy, "Please let me go", she was always Ying Yi couldn't speak in front of him.
It seems that as soon as she said it, she completely lost her home, her seat, and her marquis.

Even if He Yan is such a person, she still has no way not to love him. There was a flash of sadness in the eyes of the eldest lady, but more of disgust. For the first time, she felt sincerely reluctant to part with her own weakness and ties. disgust.

"...that scoundrel in the market should have been slapped alive. That's good, so as not to worry the Marquis when he finds out. Ma'am, ma'am!" Man'er was talking ramblingly. Looking at the gold-painted enamel filigree Arhat statue in front of her, she followed her gaze and saw nothing.
The eldest lady remained indifferent, and when Man'er was close to her ear, she was startled suddenly, as if the secret in her heart had been revealed by someone, she waved to her like a cover-up, and said straightly: "You've done a good job, get out!"

Man'er was taken aback for a moment, then stepped out of the door lightly, her heart was in a mess, but she forgot everything after a while.As long as I didn't cause trouble, and didn't cause a worse ending because of that moment of panic, wouldn't it be fine!And it seems that now she and the eldest lady have a little secret that no one knows, and the fourth girl can no longer catch her, beat her, scold her, and even sell her out!
With a happy heart, she hurriedly walked in the veranda, secretly thinking about how to show off to Shuangfu, and she became the eldest lady's confidant girl overnight!

Turning around the veranda, Man'er's eyes widened, she pointed her index finger tremblingly at the front, and exclaimed: "Miss Si! Why are you here!"

Xing Zhao was startled by the little lady's sharp voice, subconsciously frowned and looked up, but heard Lian Yu's tone of reproach behind him, and reprimanded him: "Didn't the mother in charge teach you to be cautious in your words and deeds? In front of the master Should this be the way of words and deeds? Is the injury healed?"

Man'er shrank her shoulders, now she was afraid when she saw Xing Zhao, and tremblingly bent her knees to say hello.

Xingzhao raised his head to look up and down, and asked her in a deep voice: "You don't know what mother and Mrs. Min said? What is mother's expression after going out? Why did you take you with you when you go out today?"

"I didn't hear it outside. Da Furen is nothing different." General Man'er repeated what he had just said in front of Lianyu. When he heard the last question, he froze for a while, muttered a few times, and concluded He stammered: "Maybe it's Mrs. Min's post, I handed it in."

Xing Zhao nodded slightly, raised his chin, and signaled that she could go.

Immediately, as if she had received an amnesty, Man'er buried her head and ran outside.

Xing Zhao didn't care, and walked in.

Putting both hands on the door, she opened the door wide with a "creak" sound. In the evening sun, there was no light in the room. The eldest lady subconsciously covered her eyes with her hand to block the light, frowning and saying : "Didn't others be allowed to come in?" Through the gaps between his fingers, he saw a small figure with a double bun coming in. He could not help but be full of love and affection, and waved to Xingzhao: "Ah Wu——"

Xing Zhao ran over, snuggled into Da Furen's arms, and said sullenly, "At Grandma's place, I was in a panic, so I couldn't help but want to come over and guard you. Madam Min can't speak, look at that day, it will be The mess caused by the Min family was resolved by our family, Mrs. Bo, so don't take her words to heart."

The eldest lady's eyes were sour, and she took advantage of the situation to move over to Xing Zhao, stroked the little girl's hair one by one, her throat was sore and sore, and she couldn't speak.

She couldn't imagine what kind of expression such a well-behaved little lady would have when others pointed at Ah Wu's nose and scolded that your mother's family was a courtier, a traitor, and a sinner.

The mother wants to protect the children from the wind and rain, not to let the little daughter worry about it all the time. If because of her death, it can be exchanged for Jing Ge'er and A Wu's innocent background, and cover up the faults of the Xia family, that is considered It doesn't count against her previous negligence and stupidity!
The eldest lady rested her chin on Xing Zhao's head, tears streaming down like rain.

Yuefang hid in the flower hall, watching secretly that Xing Zhao was coming, and half of her heart was relieved—the eldest lady was unhappy, and no one else was allowed to watch over her. Anyway, when the fourth girl came, the eldest lady would always be more happy.Thinking of this, he led the little maid and tiptoedly went to light the lamp with the tongue of fire in hand.

The hexagonal Ruyi palace lanterns were lit up one by one, the warm and clear light was covered in thick sheepskin, hazy and misty.

The lady only felt that the turmeric amphora stuck to her heart was like a hot iron, which made her panic and heartburn.
