The cannon fodder of fast wear, she chooses to farm

The second lady was so angry that she didn't sleep all night. Her head was swollen and her eyes were bloodshot. When she came to greet the old lady and complain, she wore a pair of forehead wipes, which made her even more haggard.

She pinched the handkerchief to cover the broken skin and pus-filled blisters at the corners of her mouth, sobbing and complaining about the grievances caused by the concubine yesterday evening. Kneeling in front of him, he choked and said: "I hope the old lady will make the decision for my daughter-in-law!"

The old lady is old, falls asleep early, and sleeps lightly. Therefore, unless it is a big deal, you are absolutely not allowed to disturb her when she is resting. Once she wakes up, it will be difficult to fall asleep again.

Therefore, the West Courtyard was noisy last night, but when they saw that the gate of Rongan Courtyard was locked, they did not have the sense to make the old lady unhappy. The second lady has been holding back until this morning, waiting for Rongan Courtyard. The courtyard door opened. The old lady was eating and waiting for the younger generation to come to say hello before she came in crying to complain.

After listening to the second daughter-in-law's cry, the old lady raised her eyes and looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law in surprise: "According to the old daughter-in-law, the reason why You Sheng thinks it's unfair is because You Xin got the job out of jealousy. What's going on? Isn't Youxin still studying in the official school? What errands did you give him? "

Xu Yin and her mother-in-law looked at each other, and were hesitating whether to stand up and explain the cause of the matter, but saw her mother-in-law take a step forward, and said to the old lady:

"Old lady Jun Mingjian, my daughter-in-law has indeed assigned some work to Youxin. Isn't the east courtyard undergoing extensive renovations recently? Our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can't always come forward, and Zhao'er hasn't woken up yet, so she thinks that Youxin is not too young. "Although I am still studying in the official school, I always have time to communicate with the craftsmen on holidays or in the evenings."

After a pause, Zhong Minhua lowered his eyelids and continued: "My daughter-in-law is still thinking about whether Zhao'er will wake up and when she will wake up. It is still unknown, but there are always things in the east courtyard that require the man's intervention. It cannot always be like before. That way, you can delay if you can, and push if you can. Therefore, my daughter-in-law wants to raise Youxin up, and leave everything to him that requires his intervention."

As soon as these words came out, not to mention other people, even Xu Yin was surprised.

In this era, there is a difference between concubine and concubine after all.

What's more, it's not like the mother-in-law doesn't have a legitimate son. She has clearly told her mother-in-law that Xue Zhaojin will definitely wake up. Logically, she will only suppress the concubine, for fear that his power ambition will become more and more powerful in the future, and he will surpass the legitimate son.

Taking this into consideration, Xu Yin did not have the nerve to assign too many tasks to her younger brother and younger sister, for fear that her mother-in-law might have objections. Unexpectedly, the mother-in-law would take the initiative to raise a bastard in front of the old lady. This...does the mother-in-law have other plans, or is she just thinking about it?

If you say you are overthinking, then you are thinking too far now, right?

Zhong Minhua really thought about it.

Think about the worst outcome: if the son remains unconscious, he will eventually be raised as a bastard.

He will eventually grow old one day. No matter how capable his daughter-in-law is, she is still a woman. It is hard to say whether she will remarry in the future.

Although Xue Youxin is not his own biological child, he still calls himself "mother" and has her husband's blood in her body. She is quite respectful to herself on weekdays, so she simply takes this opportunity to slowly raise him up.

Thinking in a positive direction: If, as the daughter-in-law said, her son woke up, after this experience, she also figured it out, and from now on she just wants her son to be safe and healthy. With a concubine to share the burden, the son can feel more relaxed. No matter the title or the power of being the head of the family, they are not as important as the life of the son, so just let nature take its course. Something will occur if it belongs to your life, if not, do not push it.

After hearing what she said, the old lady thought that this was really the case, and there was nothing wrong with this arrangement, so she looked at the second lady again:

"Yousheng, this kid, is always ready to listen to the wind, and he's still showing his age in front of your aunt. It can be seen that he is spoiled by the second child. I will ask the second child to come to me later and talk to him properly. Let's Xue It is absolutely impossible for the government to allow a beloved concubine to destroy his wife."

Second lady: "..."

No!

She would naturally think of ways to punish Xue Yousheng, that little beast. Today, she specifically waited for all the people to pay her respects before crying. The purpose was to get the old lady to come forward and warn the East Courtyard not to cause trouble. How can a legitimate son still be there and let a concubine do the work? If word gets out, what will others think? Could she secretly say that her aunt is stingy and shrewd, suppressing her bastard son and preventing him from getting ahead, and that she is not as generous and kind as her sister-in-law?

"Old lady..." "Okay! I'm tired. You all should step aside! I'll ask my second son to come over at ten o'clock at noon."

The old lady waved her hand, I don't know what happened recently, all the troubles were caused by the West Courtyard. Even the eyes he looked at the second daughter-in-law were scrutinizing, wondering if it was time to take back the management power in her hands?

But who will it be handed over to after it is taken back?

I'm old and don't have the energy to take care of so many things. The eldest daughter-in-law cares about Zhao'er. She squats in the family temple every day to chant sutras and pray for blessings. When she goes out, she also goes to Yunguang Temple to offer incense... Wait a minute! Why have I heard from my servants in the past two days that the eldest daughter-in-law has not gone to the family temple?

"Boss, wife, are you feeling uncomfortable lately?"

"Thanks to the old lady for caring about me, my daughter-in-law is doing very well. She has been drinking the herbal tea that Yinyin made for me recently, and she sleeps much better. I heard that Yinyin said that she also gave some to the old lady. Can you try it? "

The old lady was stunned: Medicinal tea? What medicinal tea?

Oh—she remembered! A while ago, the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law did give her a bag of herbal tea when she came to pay her respects, saying it would help her sleep, but she thought it was half poisonous and did not dare to drink it casually.

"Is the herbal tea made by Yin Yin really good for sleep?"

"Yes, after one course of treatment, my daughter-in-law fell asleep faster and more soundly than before, and she was able to sleep until dawn."

The old lady was moved after hearing this, and immediately waved her hand to let them go, so that she could go back to the inner room and taste the herbal tea given by her filial daughter-in-law.

The second wife followed Zhong Minhua out of Ronganyuan, pretending to be concerned and said: "Sister-in-law, it's not me who said you can't drink herbal tea casually. After all, it's something that goes into the mouth, so it's better to be careful."

Xu Yin: "..."

This is a disguised form of saying that she poisoned her mother-in-law through herbal tea.

She chuckled and said: "Second Aunt, you are still in good health and don't need to drink herbal tea to regulate sleep. But it's strange, why are the circles under your eyes so dark today? Is it because you didn't sleep last night? But you are in good health, why are you still doing this? Can't sleep well? Oh! It's because you think too much! No wonder! I gave my mother-in-law herbal tea to help her sleep. You have to remind her to be careful. It shows that you usually worry about this aspect. It’s hard to escape!”

After Xu Yin finished speaking, before the second lady could react, she took her mother-in-law back to the east courtyard.

The second lady was left standing up in anger.

Is this niece-in-law here specifically to defeat her?

She was really pissed off!

If this was her daughter-in-law, she would have slapped her and shouted at her!

My sister-in-law is actually still smiling. Don't think she can't tell with her pursed lips. You're stupid. Sooner or later, your daughter-in-law will ride on your head!
