The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 297 Rumors (1)
According to Xu Si'an, although Xu Xian's biological mother joined the Jiaofang Division, her original identity was the daughter of an official family. If it weren't for the family suffering, she would be more than enough to marry Xu Sisheng as a regular wife Well, Mrs. Xu is so hostile to her, I'm afraid there is something hidden in it.

The old lady never liked these common affairs, so she might not be clear about what happened here, Zhao Jing saw that Zhang Yongshun's family had left, she couldn't figure it out for a while, so she asked her maid to invite Zhang's mother over in Songhe Hall.For these past events in the Hou's mansion, the only way to find out about them is to ask Mama Zhang, which is the most reliable.

When Ms. Zhang heard that Zhao Jing invited her over, she thought it was because of Qi Xinrui.Zhao Jing must be busy with a lot of things when her new wife enters the house in the past few days. She didn't expect Qi Xinrui's affairs for a while, so she asked her daughter-in-law to inquire about this matter secretly, so as to remind Zhao Jing .

However, judging from Qi Xinrui's performance in the past few days, she is a girl who knows the basics and rules, and Zhang's mother is also a little relieved.After all, with Sun Yu'e's lessons learned here, she is also somewhat afraid of the old man.

Seeing Zhang's mother coming in, Zhao Jing hurriedly called her to sit down, and asked her maid to make tea.She used to rely on Mama Zhang for food, clothing, housing and transportation in the Hou Mansion. Now that she entered the house, it was natural for Mama Zhang to have a good rest, so she brought her daughter-in-law by her side, fortunately she was also capable.

"My wife called me over, but what do you want to order?" Zhang's mother knew Zhao Jing's temperament, although she was a good-natured person, she also had a bit of air of calm and prestige. Although it was a good intention for her to ask someone to inquire about Qi Xinrui, But after all, it was not his job, and he was afraid that Zhao Jing would be angry, so he only asked her daughter-in-law to tell Zhao Jing in private, who knew that Zhao Jing called her over so quickly.

Mama Zhang just finished speaking, and a servant girl brought tea up. Mama Zhang took the tea, and seeing the maid go out, she smiled and said, "If you want to blame my wife, you can blame me for being careless. I was scared by that Sun Yu'e." I don’t dare to let the Hou Mansion support an ancestor anymore.”

When Zhao Jing heard the words, she knew that Zhang's mother was thinking badly, so she just smiled and said: "I know that mother is kind, I invited you here today, but it's not for this matter." She took a sip of the tea cup, raised her head and looked at Mother Zhang said: "Speaking of which, Sister Xian is a serious Miss Houfu. Now that she has developed such a temperament, although I always remind her, she has preconceived some things. But it's not too big, I just asked my mother, how did sister Xian bring her back to the Hou's mansion? Does mother know the details here?"

Mama Zhang frowned slightly when she heard this, and shook her head: "I have been in poor health for a few years, and the old lady just trusts Mama Sun blindly, so the affairs of the Hou Mansion don't care about the big or small. When I recovered from my illness and came back, I realized that the old lady had brought a sister back home. It was the original uncle’s child. I saw that the child was really similar to the uncle, so I loved her a little more, but I didn’t care about her. I don’t know how I got back, I’ve also asked around, I only know that it’s from a prostitute, I really don’t know anything else.”

Seeing Mama Zhang's expression, Zhao Jing also knew that she must not be clear about it. She didn't expect Xu Si'an to know what was going on here after looking at it carelessly.Zhao Jing knew that Zhang's mother also really liked Xu Xian, so she didn't hide the matter from her. She only told Zhang's mother about Xu Xian's biological mother. Then, sister Xian's biological mother is not the prostitute that those people say, why did the whole family secretly spread such rumors at that time?"

As soon as she said the words, she suddenly realized again.

If she hadn't said that at the beginning, the old lady must have liked Xu Xian more than Sun Yu'e.There may be a few elders who don't like their own granddaughters, but like other people's granddaughters instead.Mother Zhang still felt aggrieved when she thought of this, she just gritted her teeth and said, "I'm afraid the old lady will be deceived by them, so this old slave will go and tell the old lady."

Zhao Jing looked at Mama Zhang's turbulent temper, and hurriedly stopped her and said, "Mom, don't worry, even if the old lady doesn't know the inside story, Sister Xian's biological mother did make a living by making jokes after all. I have arranged for your daughter-in-law to go to Cihang Nunnery to visit her on the first day of the lunar new year, if she really comes out of the quagmire and has a high character, then it will be the same to tell the old lady."

Seeing that Zhao Jing was settled properly, Ms. Zhang nodded her head too, but secretly spat on Ms. Sun a few times in her heart, thinking that Master Hou was kind after all, so she just drove her back to the countryside. Really cheap that old woman.

Nanny Yun came over on May [-]th, and Aunt Zhu also came with her.In the Songhe Hall of the old lady, after several girls paid homage to her husband, Zhao Jing ordered someone to send her home. Because Zhao Jing was going to Cihang Nunnery on the first day of the lunar new year, she ordered her servants to let her On the second day of junior high school, she picked up Madam Yun to come to Hou's mansion to start classes.
