Houmen Dixiu

Chapter 11
No matter what, she must tell Madam Xiao everything that happened today.

The orange-yellow candle flame danced left and right on the small boxwood kang table, emitting a faint light through the lampshade. A daughter-in-law in a light green jacket lifted the lampshade and flicked the candle wick, and the flame jumped upwards. , the room lit up again.

The Gaoyi county magistrate lazily nestled on the kang, leaning against the thick autumn-colored Qianmang long mattress, glanced at the daughter-in-law, and said, "Wangjiang, come here and squeeze my legs!"

Wangjiang smiled, and sat on the edge of the kang. He pinched the calves of Gaoyi county magistrate for a while, but said: "The county magistrate doesn't go to Miss San's place for a walk. Mrs. Marquis took the two young ladies to the gate again," said Gaoyi county master's expression carefully, and then said cautiously: "When the old lady asked, the servants were afraid that the county master would not treat them well!"

The Gaoyi County Lord originally half-closed his eyes and enjoyed it peacefully. Hearing this, he opened his eyelids and snorted faintly, "The old lady's eyelids are so shallow, but she can't bear to part with anything. The Xiao family looked at it like this." I didn't expect it to be..." The following words were swirling around in my tongue, but I didn't go any further.

The Lord Gaoyi pursed the corners of his lips, sat up while supporting Wangjiang's hand, frowned and pondered, "After all, I will be the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, and it's not that I don't want to please the old lady," he said, glancing at Wangjiang. With a glance, she said helplessly: "But this girl doesn't know what's the matter. She used to be close to me, but since she got sick... maybe the Du family said something about me in her ear, and now she looks at me when she sees me." Besides, her small appearance is so similar to her dead mother, when I saw it, I couldn't help feeling..."

Wang Jiang heard a "click" in his heart, and even retracted his hands unconsciously.

The head of Gaoyi County glared at Jiang: "What are you afraid of? Anyway, the matter has passed, who knows?"

"The servant is not afraid," Wang Jiang trembled, and quickly adjusted his mood, "The servant is worried about the county lord."

The Lord Gaoyi snorted nonchalantly, squinted his eyes halfway, his thoughts turned inexplicably for a while, and all kinds of feelings slowly came to his heart, "It's best if you think like this, I'm still pregnant right now, if I catch up with you Sticking it over there, accidentally hurting the child in the stomach, this is not worth the candle!"

The Lord Gaoyi pursed her lips tightly, thinking that she is also a beautiful girl from a famous family, but she happened to meet a short-lived husband. He gave birth to a daughter who passed through the gate of hell and survived, but he was rushing back. On the way to the palace, he fell off a horse and died.

Naturally, she would not be a widow after her husband passed away, and then she met Xiao Yihai under the guidance of her cousin-in-law. If it wasn't for this, how could she be friends with Du Boshu with all her heart? He wanted to please, but he was covering up his temper, so that he could get closer to Xiao Yihai.

Now that Du Boshu has passed away, it stands to reason that her various wishes are about to be fulfilled, but why is she always a little uneasy in her heart.

The Lord Gaoyi sighed, and the sound of rain outside the window couldn't help drawing her attention to it.

There were two faint figures reflected on the freshly pasted window paper, Wang Jiang poked a little further in, and said cautiously: "It's already winter, I think it won't rain for a long time, when the winter is sunny and warm, the county lord It's better to go out more, because it's not good for children to stay on the kang."

The head of Gaoyi County nodded lightly, "When this matter is over, let's go back to Dong's house to see Sister Yan." After the words came to this point, as if thinking of something, he turned his head with surprise in his eyes , "If I bring Sister Yan to Xiao's residence, do you think it is feasible?"

Wang Jiang was startled, and his subordinates inevitably slowed down by half a beat. After thinking for a while, he said: "Of course the Xiao family dare not say anything, because they are afraid that the Dong family will not let people go."

The Lord Gaoyi snorted softly, and said indifferently: "As long as I open my mouth, they will not let me go. I used to be unsure, so I didn't talk about Sister Yan seriously with them. But now that I have Yihai's child, I also want sister Yan to have a companion..." At this point, her eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "It just so happens that someone is leaving. It’s not bad, it’s just right to tidy up and let Sister Yan live.”

Gaoyi County Lord naturally doesn't like Du Boshu's mother and daughter. In the past, she was so close to them in order to enter Xiao's house. A little girl.

Besides, Mrs. Du's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law guarded themselves like thieves. She vomited once, and was invited out without even seeing Xiao Huaisu. It would be even more difficult to complete Mrs. Xiao's mission. Besides, she really doesn't think so now.

Wang Jiang rolled his eyes, and quickly nodded in agreement, "It's still the county lord who is thoughtful." After a pause, he continued: "But the old lady has to pay more attention to the county lord."

"Just wait!"

The Lord Gaoyi's eyes were full of sparkles, and he snorted, "Now the old lady is so focused on getting into that girl's dowry, she won't come out no matter what. Once the time passes, she will get cold and retreat." Lifting herself up Looking around with her slender and fair fingers, the bright red Danko had a warm color under the candlelight, glowing with a shimmer, "Mrs. Du is a good friend? Not to mention that Mrs. Du still has a She has a sharp mouth, how can she beat her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?!"

"Didn't Madam Hou often go to the third lady's room? If she really persuaded the third lady to stay, I'm afraid the old lady will think highly of her!" Wang Jiang's words were a little puzzled and worried, He was really thinking of his master.

"Wangjiang, Wangjiang, you are so confused!"

The Lord Gaoyi smiled lightly and shook his head, "If Mrs. Hou really wanted to keep Xiao Huaisu, I'm afraid it would have been exhausted, but she was the first to let go when talking about the dowry that day, which proves that she didn't want to leave Xiao Huaisu behind." Mixed in, and now I am taking my two daughters to the small courtyard, I am afraid it is also showing weakness to the Du family, showing that I have no intention of keeping people, and let the Du family leave early."

It was only then that Wang Jiang suddenly realized, "It's still the county lord who sees clearly, and the slaves have stayed with the county lord for so many years, if I can learn half of the county lord's wisdom, I would be thankful." Buddha.

The laughter of Gaoyi County Lord became even more cheerful, and he only took Wangjiang's hand and patted it, and said in a rare soft voice, "I just like you, who is sincere, obedient and loyal, like Mama Wu. I can't bear it!" After a pause, she pursed her lips and said, "It's also thanks to her being raised now, if she's still talking about it by my side, I'm afraid we won't be able to get things done today!" The tone of the speech was abrupt. Shen, a sharp light came out of his eyes.

The hairs on Wangjiang's back stood on end when he heard this, and he gradually lowered his head under the provocative gaze of the county lord Gaoyi, but a drop of cold sweat couldn't help but slipped from the corner of his forehead. It's not that she is not smart, but she dare not clever.
