The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 351 Confrontation (1)
Zhao Jing was busy in the front yard for a while, and asked Steward Zhou to call a team of guards from the Hou's residence to support the old lady. Seeing the old lady's carriage go away, she was a little relieved.

Steward Zhou was puzzled by Monk Zhang Er for a while, but he had never seen the old lady go out by herself, and after all, he was a little uncertain about the situation today, so he asked Zhao Jing, "Madam, can you tell me about this old lady?" Where is the lady going?"

Zhao Jing knew that Xu Si'an regarded Steward Zhou as both a confidant and an elder, so naturally she did not hide everything from her. Now that she is taking over the general affairs of the Hou Mansion, it is all thanks to the help from Steward Zhou's family and others, and she respects him somewhat. , and simply told him everything about today.

Steward Zhou pondered for a while after hearing this, thinking that Mrs. Xu is such a kind-hearted person, and it's okay for her to act like this, but Madam is usually a serious and thoughtful person, so she is encouraging her today. The old lady is here.Although these trivial matters in the back house can't be brought to the table, if there is a quarrel and people don't know what to do, it's still considered the Hou's mansion to bully others with power.

Seeing the doubtful look on Steward Zhou's face, Zhao Jing probably guessed a little bit, so she smiled and said, "Don't be embarrassed, Steward Zhou. When Master Hou comes back, I'll just ask him personally."

Steward Zhou had nothing to say after saying this, Master Hou is now obedient to Madam Hou, don't say anything about apologizing, I'm afraid it's too late to feel distressed when he comes back, he's just worrying blindly.

The He family is not far from the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, but only a few alleys away.Mrs. Xu turned two turns in the carriage, and she had withdrawn a little bit of her anger just now. When she raised her head and saw Mama Zhang who was sitting beside her with a calm and calm face, she lost all confidence in her heart.

"Mother Zhang, you said that we just went there so recklessly at night, can this get Mrs. He out?" Mrs. Xu is a typical hot-headed person. She was so angry that she didn't have time to think about it. At this time, there is such a point of retreating.It was not easy for her to live with her two children when she was young, and she was tough, but since she came to Beijing with the old master, she changed her temper, and she was always kind and friendly, and she had long forgotten The way he used to be pissed off.

Seeing the old lady like this, Zhang's mother couldn't help laughing, frowned, took her hand and smiled and said: "Old lady, you really have to show off this time, the wife is pregnant now, such a thing Of course you can't come in person, this is the time for you to show off."

Mrs. Xu also felt reasonable after hearing this, and said bravely: "I clearly wanted to show it, but I don't know why I feel a little guilty at this moment, probably because I didn't eat much at noon, so I don't know what to do now." Do you have strength?"

Zhang's mother has served Mrs. Xu for decades, and she has already felt the old lady's temper clearly.In fact, the old lady is a warm-hearted person, but she is too kind on weekdays and never gets angry, so when encountering things, she will inevitably react slowly and be given the opportunity by the other party, but she doesn't know how to deal with it.

Mother Zhang smiled and said: "After the old lady passed by, she just said that Miss Qi misses her sister and wants Mrs. He to stay for a few days. Don't say anything else, that's fine."

"Just don't say anything else? Don't say hello to the women in their family? It doesn't seem good to just go there so recklessly?"

"What's not so good, old lady, if you think about it, if this Mrs. He was replaced by my aunt and grandma, and suffered such a big grievance in the Qi family, you can still greet their family in a good manner? This is a matter of life and death. What a big deal!" Mama Zhang knew that the old lady had always been soft-hearted, and she couldn't do it without a dose of strong medicine at this time, so she simply said: "If the wife of the Qi family is still alive and knows that her daughter is being abused like this, she still doesn't know How can you feel bad!"

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she suddenly got angry again after being discouraged. She frowned and said, "That's right! My in-laws wife is also the kindest person. If she knows this, she doesn't know how to feel sorry for her. I'm not afraid of it." Now, I just think that Mrs. He is my own daughter... I think her sister Heping was about the same size back then, and they were all good children, but now..."

Before the old lady finished speaking, the carriage outside had already stopped.At this time, it was completely dark, and there was a horn lamp hanging at the entrance of He Mansion, and there was not even a person at the entrance.

Zhang's mother got out of the car and called a servant to call for the door. After waiting for a while, the door finally opened a crack.The man sighed and took a look. He saw two or three carriages parked at the door, and there were ten or twenty guards standing in a line on the left and right. Seeing the frightening posture, he hurriedly opened the door and said, "Dare to ask?" ...Which family is visiting?"

Mother Zhang replied: "It is the old lady from the Marquis of Wu'an who came to invite the wife of the mansion to stay in the Marquis for a few days."
