The oil bottle of the Red Chamber

Chen's words are full of guns and sticks, and anyone who hears it will know that it means dissatisfaction with Aunt Lan.Those who are well-informed naturally know that Mrs. Chen is complaining for her daughter, so she wants to beat Aunt Lan.I don't know why, but I am also happy to watch the new wife attack the most favored person in front of the master.No matter who has the upper hand in the end, this fire will not burn them who are watching the theater.

Thinking of this, the aunts glanced at each other unconsciously, then hurriedly lowered their heads and pretended to be honest, but secretly applauded in their hearts.Especially Aunt Fang, whose daughter died last year, couldn't hide the schadenfreude between her brows—of course, maybe she didn't bother to cover it up.

Only Master You looked at Mrs. Chen inexplicably, and then at Aunt Lan.After all, the bottom of my heart is still in love with the tenderness of last night's flowers and candles in the bridal chamber.After thinking about it, I didn't say anything.

When Aunt Lan saw this, she immediately looked at You Ziyu with grievances on her face, her eye circles were also red, her eyes were full of resentment, and she wanted to shed tears. She rubbed her eye sockets with a handkerchief pitifully, and said whether she wanted to cry: "Mrs. How do you say this? If my wife doesn't like me, she should tell me why she doesn't like me. So that I understand and correct it immediately. Why bother to spoil me so vaguely? Could it be that my parents asked Mr. to teach me to read? Is it wrong to be literate and understand the meaning?"

Chen didn't talk about Aunt Lan's crying and complaining about her grievances, but looked at You Ziyu with a sneer on her face.Yin said: "Look, I said that scholars are high-spirited, am I wrong? I just said such a sentence, and she cried and complained and complained about her grievances. On a happy day, just give me shame like this. I don't know. I thought she was the wife, but I was the person in the house who should hold tea and serve the rules. Fortunately, I am a person who has children in his thirties. If I were younger, I might have to make a cry She looks so frivolous and frivolous. It can be seen that whether she reads books or not is not the same as knowing the truth and understanding the world. I don’t think I have wronged her after this incident.”

After all, without waiting for Aunt Lan to refute, she smiled and said to You Lao'an: "I brought two sisters to marry into You's family. The old lady and the master knew about this, and the family agreed. I privately Thinking about it, the old lady and the lord are so glamorous, they talk about one thing and another, and they are fast-talking people who spit and spittle, and they will definitely not do one thing in front of the other. The parents of the two families and the matchmaker had agreed, so why on the day of their marriage did they tell my two lowly maidservants to inquire about the original Zhao family members from my two sisters behind my back? Don't drag the oil bottle. I said so many nonsense, and the two sisters couldn't sleep well all night, and they didn't dare to tell me. Fortunately, the girl who followed me was loyal. This morning Tell me quietly. Otherwise, I will be a dead person, and I don’t even know that my daughter was bullied by the two lowly maidservants. I thought that the two lowly maidservants did not dare to offend me for no reason. It can be seen that someone secretly ordered something, They dare to do it."

As Chen said, she sneered again, staring at Aunt Lan with scorching eyes, and said firmly in her mouth: "Since that's the case, I might as well say it again—don't say that we have three media, six hires, and eight sedan chairs. After entering the door of You's house, the ancestral hall was opened to worship the ancestors in a fair and just manner, as if the three of us mothers stayed at your You's house and did not leave. It’s not right, so why not put it all on the table today. Everyone simply tore up their faces and made a scene, so I gave up my heart. From now on, I will guard the dowry and bring my two sisters back to my mother’s house to live a stable life. There is no need to tell your servants of the You family to talk, as if our daughter of the Chen family cannot get married and can only live under the fence of your You family."

There was no warning about Chen's attack, and everyone in the You family was caught off guard and stunned.It was You Lao'an who was the first to react, and took Chen's hand to make amends and said with a smile: "What do you say, daughter-in-law? It's not good to say such frustrating words on a happy day. If those girls are not good, you can just beat and scold them." , no matter how bad it is, there is still me, my wife. You come and tell me, and I will vent your anger for you. Why bother to say that there is something or nothing, and it hurts everyone's heart. "

Before saying a word, his expression changed immediately, and he yelled at everyone and asked: "Who sent those two lowly maidservants to serve my sister? Where did they have the courage to deceive the master? It can be seen that I am usually in a bad mood. I would like to argue with you, but you are so lawless that you even dare to bully the master of the family."

After finishing speaking, he ordered Jixiang, the eldest maid, to go outside to spread the word, only saying that the two maids, who were about forty boards in size, were thrown to Zhuangzi, or sold or married.

When Mrs. Chen heard this, she laughed instead, took You Lao'an's hand and said, "I know that the old lady loves me, that's why I did this. It was just a moment of urgency, and I forgot the good old days." Talking nonsense. The old lady's words are still serious. Today is a happy day. It's not good to beat and scold, which is a bad luck. Besides, those two girls just listened to the instigation of others, and they got confused and fattened. Do such a thing. Since the rules are not good, just send them down and ask the nuns in charge to adjust them again. I saw that the girls in the old lady's room behaved very well, so it can be seen that there is a saying that if there is a master, there must be one. My servant, there is nothing wrong with it. Following a master with shallow eyelids, you will naturally behave in a normal way. If you follow a master who understands and understands, you will learn how to raise and lower eyebrows. Please also ask the old lady to send them silently. If you send them up again, if you still make mistakes at that time, you will be beaten, scolded and kicked out again, it will not be regarded as punishment for not teaching."

Originally, You Lao'an said this because she was afraid of the Chen family's snobbery, but as a mother-in-law, although she didn't have the intention to ask her daughter-in-law to set the rules, this big day made her daughter-in-law steal a meal, and she might not feel good about it.Now hearing what Chen said, not only did she not lose face, but flattered her once, and there was nothing wrong with her.Immediately clapped Afraid Chen's hand, said with a smile: "Sure enough, you are a sensible person. Since you said so, let's do it like this."

Turning around, he ordered Jixiang to go out to pass the message, and drive the two girls out to learn the rules.Jixiang bowed his body and went out for a while.You Lao'an looked at Aunt Lan who was standing on the original ground, blue and purple, then took Chen's hand and said with a smile: "Because I'm not in good spirits, I have to worry about socializing outside. I won't ask much about the matter, and I will only let Aunt Lan take care of it. It's just that she, as an aunt, has never taken care of the house on weekdays, and she made some omissions for a while, which caused the servants to break the rules. I'm not afraid of daughter-in-law, you will be angry If so, it's a good thing that I offended my second and third sisters yesterday, if I offended outsiders, wouldn't our You family become a laughing stock in Beijing, and my wife would be ashamed of her ancestors."

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen hurriedly smiled and said: "Isn't that right. I thought so too. Fortunately, I offended my two sisters. Although I am very powerful on the outside, I just say a few It's over to solve the hatred. What if you offend outsiders or relatives? So it's the old lady who you should worry about. It's not that I'm a good talker. It's not nice to call an aunt butler in the house. Do it It didn’t look good when it came out.”

Hearing this, You Lao'an laughed and said: "I am so old, you can bear to watch me work hard. Now you are Ziyu's wife and the serious master of the You family. As the saying goes, outside the male lead, the female lead Inside, you should take care of the affairs of the You family's inner courtyard. You are not allowed to be lazy."

After finishing speaking, he said to Aunt Lan: "I have already ordered you to prepare well. After the wife enters the door, you will return the butler's affairs to the wife. It is better to hit the day than to choose a day. You can hand it over today. "

Aunt Lan knew early on that the new wife would enter the house, so there must be a tit-for-tat confrontation.She also made preparations early, intending to meet this new wife with a difficult reputation.Aunt Lan claims to have read poetry and books, and has been in love with You Ziyu for many years. She has given birth to children for the You family, and has managed the housework for so many years. No matter how she got her, Aunt Lan thought of everything, but she didn't expect that the Chen family would be so aggressive. She didn't bother with her at all, and just put on the power of the Chen family, which frightened the old lady into a panic, and she even stood up for her. As a gun, after a series of fights, not only did she get rid of Shuxiang Moxiang and made her lose face, but also weakened the aura of You Laoan and You Ziyu a lot.

However, the right to hand over the card account bookkeeper is the meaning of the title, and Aunt Lan is not too flustered.What's more, she has already laid out the plan, as long as Mrs. Chen takes over the family affairs, she will be disgraced and burnt out. At that time, Mrs. Chen will know that Aunt Lan is not easy to mess with.

It's just that Mrs. Chen's scholarly and ink-smelling episodes are happening now. I don't know how many housekeepers and daughter-in-laws in the mansion are going to ask for the favor of this new wife.

Aunt Lan thought about it, but her face was watertight, she still looked at You Ziyu with a sad and wronged look, and said, "The concubine has already been prepared. I just wait for the new wife to come in and deliver it immediately."

When Mrs. Chen married into the Zhao family, she was the housekeeper's wife of the eldest daughter-in-law. She came from a good family background, and her parents loved her brother and was willing to support her. Therefore, even though she was at odds with her mother-in-law and husband-in-law, she never took those aunts and concubines seriously. inside.To her, the so-called concubine is just a slightly respectable servant girl.If you like it, give a smiling face and gossip, if you don't like it, you have to beat and punish and establish rules. There are many ways to toss people, so don't take it seriously.It has always been so, and it still is.

Therefore, Mrs. Chen saw Aunt Lan looking at You Ziyu affectionately, and followed Aunt Lan's gaze to look over. Seeing that You Ziyu was silent, as if she was lost, she gave You Ziyu a half-smile and a half-smile. He said bitterly and jealously: "I just entered the master's door now, and I fell in love with the master's concubine. Does the master feel distressed?"

You Ziyu came back to his senses, seeing Chen's charming and aggressive appearance with a pink face, and her bright eyes, pink, glossy and fat, she felt her mind fluttered, and she hurriedly said with a smile: "Ma'am, that's what you are talking about." What are you talking about. Scholar Moxiang has neglected the second sister and the third sister, that is, neglected my daughter, but I feel distressed and angry, but it is for our daughter."

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen looked at Aunt Lan quite complacently.Before he could speak, the fourth girl who was standing beside Aunt Lan suddenly ran forward and pushed Mrs. Chen, then poured a bowl of new tea on Mrs. Chen's skirt from the coffee table, and said in her mouth: "You bully Mrs. Chen?" My mother, you are a bad person. I don't like you anymore. I don't want you to live in my house."

Seeing this situation, Mrs. Chen smiled instead of anger, and said to You Laoan and You Ziyu: "It seems that this Aunt Lan is not only not good at teaching the rules of slaves, but also the rules of her own daughter. of."

After finishing speaking, she stretched out her hand to touch the drenched pomegranate red dress, and Chen smiled at Aunt Lan with a smile on her face, and said calmly: "Since that's the case, why don't I, the mistress and aunt, be more careful and help How about you teach your daughter a little bit?"

Before finishing a sentence, Aunt Lan's complexion changed drastically.Even though she was not reconciled, she had no choice but to kneel down on the ground and apologize to Mrs. Chen begging for forgiveness: "Madam, please forgive me for being a young girl. .”
