lucky star girl

Chapter 149
The grievances and grievances in the palace will not affect the Xu family outside the palace for the time being, especially under the intentional cover-up and maintenance of several people, the Xu family is extremely stable these days.

Apart from accepting the invitation of the wives of the two families to attend the banquet held by their families, Dong Shu has been staying with Yuan Xi at home.

Yuan Xi grew up slowly, and it became more and more fun. Dong Shu had to tease her for a while every day before doing other things.

On this day, Dong Shu teased Yuan Xi for a while as usual. After she fell asleep tiredly, she was just about to go to see the account book, but Mrs. Xu's maid, Mrs. Li, suddenly came to Shi Huan Yard.

Mrs. Li used to take care of Dong Shu when she was pregnant for a period of time, so after returning to Beijing, whenever Mrs. Xu wanted to say something to Dong Shu that she didn't want others to know, she would send Mrs. Li over.

Now when she sees Mrs. Li, Dong Shu knows that her mother-in-law has something to tell her that she doesn't want outsiders to know.

After she waved Ling Xiang to lead He Xiang and Li Xiang back, she looked at Li Shi and said, "But mother has something to tell me?"

"Returning to Madam, the Jiang family sent news just now, saying that Madam Jiang is seriously ill, and I'm afraid she won't live long."

As soon as Mrs. Li said what Mrs. Xu wanted her to convey, Dong Shu's eyes widened in surprise.

She knew about Mrs. Jiang's recent illness, but didn't she say that she was just feeling sick?Why did it come out that she was about to fail?

Dong Shu thought for a moment, and before she could figure it out, Mrs. Li continued: "Mrs. Jiang said that Uncle Jiang has no children, and our eldest girl has been married for almost a year and has no body. She wants to let the family The two maidservants openly acted as Mrs. Jiang's roommates. They also said that as long as they can conceive, they will be raised as aunts."

"I see, you go back first, I'll clean up here and go to the main courtyard to see my mother." Dong Shu frowned, thinking about what Yanzhu said to herself before, she couldn't help but worry.

Yan Zhu has not yet consummated the marriage with Jiang Han, so let alone almost a year, even in three years, she will not be able to give birth to a child.

It's just that she really has no choice what to do with this matter.

Upon hearing Dong Shu's answer, Mrs. Li nodded, and after responding, she went back to the main courtyard first.

After Mrs. Li left, Dong Shu ordered Li Xiang to stay and watch the kitchen make Yuan Xi's egg yolk paste and then Yuan Xi's nanny would feed her, while she herself took Ling Xiang and He Xiang to the main courtyard.

When Dong Shu arrived at the main courtyard, she saw Mrs. Xu standing in the main courtyard admiring the flowers. Seeing that her mother-in-law was still enjoying the flowers at leisure, Dong Shu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Raising her hand to tell Ling Xiang and He Xiang to stop, Dong Shu took a few steps forward by herself.

"Mother, you asked Mrs. Li to find me, about Yanzhu..."

"This matter is not urgent." Before Dong Shu finished speaking, Mrs. Xu interrupted her suddenly, seeing her puzzled face, she continued: "Do you know who sent today's news? "

Dong Shu didn't understand why the old lady Xu said that, but after a moment of hesitation, she realized that if Xu Yanzhu sent this news today, her mother-in-law would not have asked such a question.

Therefore, she boldly guessed: "Could it be that it was sent by Jiang Han?"

As soon as Dong Shu's words fell, Mrs. Xu nodded and said, "Yes, it was Jiang Han who sent it."

Almost at the moment when Mrs. Xu's voice fell, Dong Shu's eyes widened in surprise. She really didn't expect that Jiang Han would send this news.

"Mother, didn't Yanzhu send the letter back?" Just after saying this, Dong Shu didn't wait for the old lady Xu to answer, and continued: "Mother, why don't I go to Jiang's house to see?"

Dong Shu was really worried about Xu Yanzhu. Ever since she married into Xu's family, Xu Yanzhu had been with her all the time.

When she was the most ignorant, it was Xu Yanzhu who kept teaching her various things. Now that Xu Yanzhu might have an accident, she was naturally in a hurry.

After hearing Dong Shu's words, Mrs. Xu did not directly refuse. She looked at Dong Shu and saw that the eagerness in her eyes did not seem false, so she continued: "Mother knows that you and Yanzhu have a good relationship, but do you know how to go?" As the empress of the Jiang family, what identity should I use? What attitude should I use to talk to Mrs. Jiang?"

"Huh?" Dong Shu didn't understand what Old Madam Xu meant at first, until she kept staring at herself, she finally realized what mother-in-law meant.

"Mother, I am Yanzhu's elder, and I am of the same generation as Mrs. Jiang. What's more, I am also a village lord appointed by the Holy Majesty."

The old lady Xu was relieved when she saw that Dong Shu had quickly reacted, and agreed to let her go to Jiang's house to have a look.

Dong Shu got the consent of Mrs. Xu, so she hurried back to pack the medicinal materials, and at the same time, she didn't forget to send someone to deliver a post to Jiang's family.

In order to support Xu Yanzhu, Dong Shu asked Nanny Yan to deliver the post.

Nanny Yan is a nanny from Fengyi Palace, and Jiang's family is just a merchant, but she also knows this clearly.

With Nanny Yan sending the posts, Jiang's family naturally wouldn't stop Dong Shu from seeing Xu Yanzhu, not only did they not dare to stop, the entire Jiang family opened the door wide open the next day, waiting for Dong Shu to go.

Dong Shu changed into Xiang Jun's crown clothes early the next morning, and went to Jiang's house with full posture.

As for the Jiang family's wife who was seriously ill according to the Jiang family's rumors, she could only wait in the room for Dong Shu's arrival, she was really powerless to get out of bed.

After Dong Shu entered Jiang's house, she saw Xu Yanzhu who was waiting at the second gate. She was about to speak when Dong Shu saw her, but the next moment she saw a familiar servant woman who was following Xu Yanzhu.

That is, when Dong Shu's eyes fell on the servant woman, the servant woman also respectfully bowed to Dong Shu and said, "My servant pays homage to Fukang Township Lord. Madam really couldn't get up this morning. I hope you will forgive me."

After being guided by Nanny Yan and taught by Xu Shiqiu last night, Dong Shu just nodded slightly after hearing what the servant girl said.

Seeing Dong Shu ignoring her, the servant woman was in a difficult situation, Xu Yanzhu hurriedly walked two steps closer to Dong Shu, stretched out her hand to hold her arm and said, "Third aunt, mother-in-law really can't get up, don't blame me. She." While speaking, Xu Yanzhu could still feel the arm he was holding on trembling slightly.

With Xu Yanzhu speaking, a smile appeared on Dong Shu's face, "Well, since you begged for mercy, then naturally I won't blame her."

When Xu Yanzhu heard the third aunt's words, she wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so she could only bear it.

She really didn't expect that her third aunt would have such a side, and she really pretended to be like that, but if the arm she was holding would not tremble, it would be more real.

Xu Yanzhu could see that Dong Shu was pretending, naturally because she knew her well, but the Jiang family didn't know Dong Shu well.

Seeing that the young lady had opened her mouth, Dong Shu responded to her words, and naturally raised Xu Yanzhu's position in her heart.

Although my young lady's parents and younger brother are not very promising, the uncle and the third uncle are both officials, especially the third aunt, who is said to have a good relationship with the young lady, is appointed by the emperor and loved by the empress. Jun.

The maid didn't show it on the face, but she thought in her heart that after they left, she should persuade her wife well.

Dong Shu didn't know what the maid was thinking, she came here today under the guise of visiting a doctor, so naturally she had to see Madam Jiang.

Before Dong Shu could reach Mrs. Jiang's room, she smelled the strong smell of medicine. She glanced sideways at Xu Yanzhu, and after seeing Xu Yanzhu nodded slightly, she realized that Mrs. Jiang's family was really sick. up.

After understanding this, Dong Shu immediately decided to follow the method discussed with Xianggong last night.

After Dong Shu walked into Mrs. Jiang's room, she saw that Mrs. Jiang had changed into a dress for meeting outsiders and was leaning against the bed.

Seeing Dong Shu walk in, she was about to stand up and salute, but Dong Shu said first, "Mrs. Jiang, you don't need to be too polite. You are Yan Zhu's mother-in-law, how about I call you 'in-law'?"

Dong Shu's meaning is very clear, because you are my Yanzhu's mother-in-law, so I am willing to give you face, regardless of rank, only relatives.

When Mrs. Jiang heard Dong Shu's words, how could she refuse, so she nodded in agreement.

After she opened her mouth, Dong Shu put on the kindness of an elder, looked sideways at Xu Yanzhu and said, "My family, Yanzhu, has been married to Jiang's family for a year, and her in-laws have been sick several times. This child is kind-hearted. When she was not married to the Xu family, she took care of her grandmother when she was sick. Her grandmother said that Yan Zhu was a filial child. Now that she is taking care of her in-laws, our family is not worried, but we know that I am here today When I visited my in-laws, her grandmother and third uncle both told me to reprimand Yan Zhu a few more times."

After saying this to Mrs. Jiang, regardless of the look on her face, Dong Shu looked at Xu Yanzhu and said, "Yanzhu, your grandmother and third uncle said that although you grew up beside your grandmother, it's up to you Grandmothers raised themselves up, but they must not hold on to their status, and when it is time to be filial to mother-in-law, they must not back down."

Dong Shu saw that Xu Yanzhu had just finished speaking, and Xu Yanzhu immediately saluted respectfully: "Yes, Yanzhu remembers the teachings of grandmother and third uncle."

Hearing Xu Yanzhu's words, Dong Shu nodded in satisfaction, and then continued: "I believe in you, and seeing that your aunt was also raised by your grandmother, I know that you must be a good one."

Seeing her third aunt posing as an elder and helping her back up in a roundabout way, Xu Yanzhu almost couldn't help laughing.

With the words of the third aunt now, presumably the mother-in-law can no longer rely on her status as an elder to deal with him.

Like her aunt, she was brought up by her grandmother. If her mother-in-law said that she was ignorant and wanted to set rules for her, it would mean that her grandmother could not raise children.

But the aunt raised by her grandmother was the Fifth Prince's Concubine, who was praised by the Holy Majesty, the Empress, and the Concubine De.

If Xu Yanzhu could figure this out, Mrs. Jiang would naturally understand better.

She really didn't expect that the Xu family would come to the door as soon as she revealed that she wanted to choose two rooms for Jiang Han.

However, it was such a young gentleman who came here, but he was of the same generation as her, and even had a rank.

As a result, her plan naturally cannot continue. The Fukang Township Lord in front of him just now has made it very clear that after Xu Yanzhu married into Jiang's family, she fell ill several times.

She was sick, and it was too late for her daughter-in-law to serve her, so she didn't have the heart to take care of her husband, let alone have children.

Mrs. Jiang's family only felt that her chest was not smooth, and she wanted to get angry but couldn't do it at all.

Dong Shu didn't care what Mrs. Jiang's reaction was. After she finished what her family had taught her last night, Dong Shu looked at Mrs. Jiang and said, "There is one thing that needs to be clarified with my in-laws. There will be a banquet at home in a few days. At that time, Yanzhu will go to help me with the banquet. At that time, the in-laws must not hold back the person."

As soon as Dong Shu's words came out, the last way for Mrs. Jiang's family was completely blocked.

Originally, Mrs. Jiang's family planned to torture Xu Yanzhu after Dong Shu left.

She didn't beat or scold her, and there were many ways to torment Xu Yanzhu, but this Dong Shu spoke clearly, and Xu Yanzhu was going to help her when she had a banquet at home in a few days.

Xu Yanzhu also understood what Third Aunt meant, seeing her mother-in-law's face was ugly, she immediately tugged on Third Aunt's sleeve quietly.

Dong Shu noticed Xu Yanzhu's movements, quickly reacted, looked at Mrs. Jiang's family and said, "Dear family, I think your complexion is not good, so I won't bother you. You'd better rest more." After saying this, Dong Shu Shu didn't wait for Mrs. Jiang to answer, she said directly to Xu Yanzhu, "Yanzhu, this is my first time visiting Jiang's house, take me around."

Dong Shu's status is here, and she has the rank of a township lord. Although it is not high, it is enough for the merchant Jiang's family.

When Xu Yanzhu heard Dong Shu's words, he didn't hesitate, and directly saluted Mrs. Jiang: "The mother-in-law is resting, and the daughter-in-law took the third aunt to visit."

Mrs. Jiang had no choice but to let Xu Yanzhu leave, so she could only raise her hand and let Xu Yanzhu lead Dong Shu away.

Not only that, but when Dong Shu left, she had to salute the Lord, even if she was still lying on the bed.
