Lady Zhao

Chapter 20

"Hey, who is wronged by Brother Yue? Look at this little blushing face, tell Third Aunt quickly." The corners of Xu's gloating lips were slightly curved, but he frowned and interjected in distress. In fact, I hate children the most.

Sanfang has always been a person who is afraid of chaos in the world. Wherever there is "hustle and bustle", she always intervenes first, and she can only feel at ease if the house is not peaceful. Maybe she and Zhao Hongming have a stronger sense of existence in this way.

How could Mrs. Ye let Sanfang compare her eldest aunt and monopolize her, so she asked softly, "Brother Yue, don't worry, if you get angry with someone in this mansion, tell aunt, maybe It will embarrass you."

Lin Qingyue was still young, so she didn't know their superfluous thoughts. Seeing that the two aunts loved her so much, she strengthened her confidence.

Mrs. Lin first called her son to her, and grabbed him. Seeing that he was in a hurry, she inspected him carefully, and she was relieved when she didn't touch him, and asked, "Didn't you go to see him?" Cousin, what happened?"

The latter's small face was wrinkled into a ball, full of displeasure, "As soon as we entered the yard, we asked Cousin Wan to stop us, bullied my eldest cousin not to let us see, and even ordered the little boy in the yard to treat us You're not welcome, Cousin Xuan even made Cousin Wan cry."

Lin Qingyue complained cracklingly, her black grape-like eyeballs raised with anticipation, looking at the grandmother sitting on the main seat, hoping that she could uphold justice.

"This..." Mrs. Lin felt a headache immediately after hearing this. It was Zhao Wenwan who bullied her own Shuang'er, and even Yueer. She married into a poor family, not to mention the ones who are far away, the ones who are close are the elder sisters, and marrying Xipinghou can be described as beautiful, but she is married to a protégé of her father.

At that time, the old man said that his current husband and son-in-law are talents and must have a bright future. The old lady of the Lin family passed away early. There is no need to wait on the parents-in-law in the morning and evening, and there is no quarrel and dispute with the sister-in-law. It is suitable for Mrs. Lin's spoiled temper. I have always wondered how hard her parents put into her marriage.

Zhao Wenwan must have thought that her aunt was the worst to marry, so she singled out her own pair of children to bully her, how could she not bully the Xipinghou family.

The more Mrs. Lin thought about it, the more dissatisfied she became, and even the previous resentment was shaking on her face, which was very ugly, "Mother, we should take care of Wen Wan's temper. It's not a problem for my Shuang'er and Yue'er to be bullied like this." .Maybe my little aunt is not capable, and Wen Wan doesn't think she needs to respect me. I will dare to take the child back to my mother's house to see you in the future."

After finishing speaking, she turned to Mrs. Ye again, her tone even more unfriendly, "Sister-in-law, Wen Wan is your child, you should say a few words to be fair." Mrs. Lin knew that the old lady preferred Zhao Wenwan now, so she was afraid that there would be no one to replace her. speak for themselves.

Mrs. Ye raised her eyes, the old lady was here, she didn't want to join in, and she offended her mother-in-law, so she just smiled and said, "Second aunt, don't worry, with my mother here, I won't miss you."

When Sanfang heard that she had something to do with Zhao Wenwan, and saw Mrs. Lin hugging the child, her eyes were filled with the appearance of a distressed mother, she suddenly thought of the thorn in her heart, felt a faint pain, her eyes became ruthless, and echoed, "Mother, five My aunt is really pitiful, she is also a guest of the Duke's Mansion, but she was bullied like this by a junior."

Sure enough, as soon as Mrs. Xu agreed to help Mrs. Lin, the old lady cast a sideways glance, not very happy.Immediately, Mrs. Zhao asked Mama Yang to pour a bowl of herbal tea for Brother Yue, without making a sound.

At this moment, Mrs. Xipinghou, who had been listening in, said, "It's common for children to be noisy, and the second sister thinks too much. I think that Wen Wan's child is a bit more powerful, but he is sincere and has no heart. The second sister is young." Isn't it the same in Shi, did mother quarrel with you because of this?"

Mrs. Lin got on top of her petty temper, she said indiscriminately, she wiped her tears with the handkerchief around her waist, "Our mother and son are disgusting in this house, Yueer, go and call your sister, we'll pack up and go back to the house. "

Seeing the opportunity, Mrs. Ye hastened to be a good person to comfort her, "Don't be angry, Grandma Wugu, you have broken the old lady's heart."

Mrs. Lin put away some veils, and felt a little guilty when she saw the frowning of the person sitting on the master seat, after all, it was her own mother.

Mrs. Xiping Hou sighed, she was helpless with her sister's temper, so she had to say, "Mother, I think there must be some misunderstanding in the middle, why don't you call the younger ones to you and ask them clearly, it will be easier to understand The second sister's heart knot. Besides, the sisters had a quarrel today, and they are afraid of creating a rift, so they will talk about it when they come here, so that they can admit their mistakes and feel relieved if they are right."

Sanfang was even more excited when she heard that, and she dared not talk nonsense after being stared at by the old lady. She was slandering in her heart, Zhao Wenwan had provoked a lot of sisters, and she couldn't explain it when she came. With the difficult second aunt and the third bedroom who have never been at odds.

"Old lady, what my aunt said is that the daughter-in-law here should apologize first. Whether it's right or wrong, it's because I didn't entertain you well." Mrs. Ye said immediately.

"That's all, that's all, Mama Yang, go and call some younger ones to Mingxu Garden."

"Yes."

After a while, Mother Yang came with someone. On the way, Zhao Wenwan had heard Mother Yang talk about the argument of the elders just now. Mother Yang was also partial to Zhao Wenwan, so she told her alone. Wenwan understood in her heart, little aunt He Sanfang and Mrs. Ye are all there, and with the addition of a few naughty little ones, it may be another "tough battle".

Mother Zhao led them into the house together, and the sisters greeted the elders first according to the rules. He Jingyuan was called to the front by Mrs. Xipinghou, meaning that he should not be involved in this matter.He was brought by Xiping Hou to hone in the barracks since he was a child, and he didn't come to the mansion much, and he didn't go out with his sisters much, and he was afraid that he would be impulsive when he was young.

Wenxuan, Wenxue, Brother Yue, Sister Shuang stood in the middle with Zhao Wenwan. Mrs. Lin fixed her eyes on the tallest one, and was about to make trouble when Zhao Wenwan stood up first, with an attitude of admitting her mistake, " Grandmother, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have blocked my brothers and sisters from seeing my elder brother. They also had good intentions, but I… had my own selfish intentions. First, my elder brother was not in good health, and I was afraid that they would disturb my brother’s cleanliness. Second,... ...Secondly, my grandmother also knew that my mother died early, so I'm afraid...they will rob my elder brother." Zhao Wenwan's voice choked up a little.

Thinking of these two children who have lost their mothers and depended on each other for life, the old lady's heart softened immediately, "My darling, your elder brother can't take it away, alas."

Mrs. Xiping Hou was also sentimental, thinking that at that time, the sister-in-law had a gentle temper and was very popular.She is about the same age as Shen's, and although she is a sister-in-law, she is more like a sister, and she takes care of herself more, "Oh, it's understandable for Wen Wan to behave like this, and it's not a big mistake to be flamboyant."

Seeing the situation, the rest of the people made Zhao Wenwan admit his mistake, and then reprimanded him without knowing what to say.

Mrs. Lin was not reconciled, "As the eldest sister, how can you be so arrogant and let your servants drive away a few sisters, and even said something ugly to Brother Yue."

"Wen Wan, you are the elder sister after all, the daughter of our Duke's mansion, you don't have a sense of restraint." Mrs. Xu took advantage of her words to teach her a lesson.

Zhao Wenwan's face was stained with guilt, but his back was straight. Facing Mrs. Lin and Sanfang, his tone was quite ups and downs, "Little aunt said, I really shouldn't. But I was too angry, that's why I did this." , Brother Yue, he...he heard gossip from nowhere, saying that I have a bad relationship with my elder brother, and that I wanted to harm him. I was angry and annoyed for a while, so I became fierce to Brother Yue. Where am I? Such a younger sister actually wants to harm her elder brother, I can't bear the crime, so what should my elder brother think if he hears this."

"Brother Yue, who told you such nonsense." The old lady turned serious, there were such false rumors in the house.

Brother Yue had never seen his grandmother yelling at him like this, he was so frightened that he quickly hid in Mrs. Lin's arms, and Mrs. Lin's eyes also flashed panic, protecting her son.

Mrs. Xipinghou turned cold, and ordered Lin Qingshuang again, "Shuang'er, you have stayed with Brother Yue for the longest time, who said that?"

Lin Qingshuang was frightened for a moment, and hurriedly replied timidly, "Yes...yes..." She couldn't say anything, but she glanced at Mrs. Lin, making it clear.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Mrs. Lin's face, and she became even more flustered, "Mother, I... I'm just talking casually, I don't expect children to take it seriously."

The old lady said angrily, "You are too old to talk such nonsense, and still treat your child like Wan girl, I think you, as an elder, should apologize to Wan girl first."

"Mother..." Mrs. Lin shouted.

The old lady turned to one side, unwilling to look at her.Both Sanfang and Ye Shi were stunned and stunned at the same time. Zhao Wenxuan wanted to use her to push her down and take a good bite of Zhao Wenwan. At this moment, there was still a wound on her hand that was intentionally rubbed on the ground, so she could only feel bored. It hurts, it's like lifting a rock to shoot yourself in the foot, that kind of feeling is really unpleasant.

"Little aunt, I know you don't like me all the time. In the past, if Wen Wan offended my aunt, she apologized here. I only hope that I can write it off and save my grandmother from worrying."

Mrs. Lin choked when she said that, but her face was embarrassing and she remained silent.

Mrs. Xiping Hou rounded things up, she was her sister after all, "I know you didn't do it on purpose, it's just that a child speaks freely and doesn't know the severity of what he says. You should be more considerate in the future and treat Wen Wan better."

Mrs. Lin looked at the steps given by the eldest sister, and said reluctantly, "What sister said is, Wen Wan, it is my aunt who misunderstood you."

Zhao Wenwan nodded, and changed the subject: "Grandmother, I really want to do my part for elder brother's illness. Can you entrust me with the responsibility of treating elder brother's illness in the future, and also share it with mother." She suddenly changed the subject, only Caring about big brother and not mentioning grievances will only make people think that Zhao Wenwan is generous.

But Mrs. Ye was startled, and just about to say something to stop her, she saw the old lady nodded and said: "Okay, this group of people are making noise early in the morning, and I am also troublesome, Wan girl has a bad temper Some, but it's also for the good of Yuan Li, if you didn't go too far, why would the girl do the thing to drive you away. When your cousin Yuan Li is better, go visit him."

"Grandmother..." Lin Qingyue pouted and wanted to say something, but Madam Lin covered her mouth and dragged her to her side.

The old lady seemed a little tired, she leaned on the back of the soft couch, closed her eyes slightly, "Okay, please rest easy, give the old lady a quiet time, let's all go back."

Everyone had no choice but to file out, leaving a copper unicorn incense burner on the sandalwood table in the corner, quietly exhaling cloud-like smoke.
