Chapter 121 Make a mistake
Xiang Anwei and Xiang Anjue quietly slipped out of Li's yard on tiptoe from the porch, walked through an arched door with hanging flowers, walked along the green brick path, passed the second gate, and entered the inner house.
After the expansion of the Xiang family's house, the area to the east, bounded by the hanging flower arch, is the territory of Xiang Li's family.Logically, Xiang Li should live with Feng Niang in the main hall of the main courtyard, but Feng Niang was disheartened and moved to the next courtyard alone, leaving Xiang Li alone in the main courtyard.A little further away, there is a not-so-big courtyard, and here is the residence of Xiang Lixin's concubine.
Xiang Anwei pulled Xiang Anjue to stand in front of this courtyard.
"Second brother, this is it?"
Xiang Anjue looked at the yard in front of him, it was quiet, as if there were no servants to serve him.
Xiang Anwei clenched his fists, cheered himself up, puffed his cheeks and said: "Well, this is it. I must go in and see what is good about her. It is worth daddy to make her such a good full moon wine, and I will come to see her often She and Daddy haven't played with me for a long time."
Xiang Anjue couldn't understand what he heard, and stared into his big black eyes, he asked, "Who is he?"
Xiang Anwei rushed in with his short legs, and replied reluctantly: "Which one else, of course, is that woman's newborn sister!"
Xiang Anjue thought to himself: Which woman?But he didn't seem very happy to see the second brother, so he shut his mouth and wisely didn't ask any more questions.Anyway, we'll see each other in a while, sooner or later we'll know! ︿(￣︶￣)︿
Although Xiang Anwei is nine and a half years old now, he has been chubby since he was a child. In the past few years, he has not grown much in height except for his flesh.Standing next to the five-year-old Xiang Anjue, he is only half a head short, and there is no difference in height between the four-year-old and Xiang Anjue.Therefore, as long as the two brothers stooped a little, they smoothly and unobtrusively slipped along the corridor to the bottom of the window.
A charcoal basin was lit in the room, and the window above his head was opened a small slit. Xiang Anwei looked around, stood up and looked in. Coincidentally, the little baby he wanted to see was lying on the kang, sleeping soundly.Xiang Anwei carefully opened the window and looked around the room carefully, well, there is no one there!
"Come on, let's go in."
Xiang Anjue had never done such a sneaky thing before, and felt very exciting for a while, hearing what Xiang Anwei said, covered her mouth and laughed, and followed him into the house.
The room was quiet, and the servants were not there.Xiang Anwei tiptoed to the edge of the kang, and peeked in.With just one glance, he pursed his mouth, and there was a little grievance in his eyes.
"Ah, so cute!" Xiang Anjue also came over, standing on tiptoes and supporting the edge of the bed with both hands. "She is so small, with a small nose, a small mouth, and small hands!"
Xiang Anwei was very unconvinced, and said: "I'm not cute! I'm not too big! Daddy must think she's too young and feel sorry for her, that's why he comes here often."
"Second brother, look, look, she's still smacking her mouth!"
"Ah, are you hungry?"
"Then what are you eating? Her mouth is so small, what can she eat?"
"Cakes, of course!"
Xiang Anjue felt that the second brother was wrong, the pastry was so big, how could it fit in?If you want to eat, you must only eat jelly beans!
"Eat jelly beans!"
"Eat pastries!"
"Jelly beans!"
"pastry!"
Two small ones surrounded a baby, chattering endlessly.
At this time, in the main room, a slender young woman of seventeen or eighteen with a delicate face and a middle-aged mother with a round face and a rich figure were sitting by the bed and arranging clothes.
"Er Niang, it wasn't mother who said that you should also pay homage to the second master's Zhengjun. The second master is a very high-ranking official. With his Zhengjun's favor, you can stand up a little in this house." .Besides, on the other side of your natal family, can you take advantage of the opportunity?"
Erniang Song folded her small clothes silently, and only smiled slightly when she heard the words, and said: "How can mother say it so easily. Let's not say that the maidservant is just a concubine, and if she walks away, she will be a majestic gentleman." In front of you, if you really want to visit, don’t you need to explain to your wife?”
"Oh, that makes sense. But I heard that the second master's Zhengjun has a good temper, never beats and scolds his servants, and he does a good job in business. Compared with ordinary men, he is no worse than him."
Erniang gathered up the neatly folded clothes, and said with a smile: "Mom went out to drink and gamble with that screwer again, right? How much can you trust what they say?"
Being exposed by Erniang, this Madam Hu couldn't help being embarrassing, and hurriedly defended: "This news is not just talking about it while drinking, not only our side, but also the people from the old lady's side. Said that the old lady looked down on the Zhengjun of the second master at the beginning, and said that the second master didn't care much about the Zhengjun before getting married, but as soon as they got married, the second master seemed to accept sex. Thousands of good things are good, after so many years, there is not even a single outsider around! Tsk tsk, everyone who heard this will stare wide-eyed!"
"Shut up, mom. How can we talk casually about the second master? Be careful not to be overheard. It's easy to kick you out no matter what excuse you have!"
Mama Hu turned pale with fright, she hastily patted her mouth lightly, and said flatteringly, "Er Niang, don't blame me, it's all because of my stinky mouth."
Just as he was talking, suddenly there was a loud cry of a baby in the next room.It seems that there are children's chirping voices mixed in?Erniang and Hu's mother looked at each other, shocked in their hearts, hurriedly got off the kang, put on their shoes and rushed to the next door.
Hu's mother followed behind, calling: "Er Niang, slow down, slow down."
The sleeping baby suddenly opened its mouth and howled out with its eyes closed.Xiang Anwei and Xiang Anjue, who were still arguing about what to feed the baby around the kang, were shocked.
"Why are you crying? Oh, what should I do?"
The two little brothers were at a loss, and circled around the baby anxiously.Xiang Anjue saw a teapot and cups on the table by mistake, and immediately felt that he had found a way.
Dengdeng ran over, raised his hand and poured a cup of tea, and brought it over, confidently said: "She must be thirsty too, drink water first. Every time I wake up, Dad will call me first Drink some water to soothe your throat."
Erniang and Hu's mother rushed forward and saw two half-grown children holding tea cups and trying to pour it into the baby's mouth, and they were scared out of their wits.
"stop!"
Erniang strode forward and snatched the teacup with her hands, her hands were still shaking for a while.
"Hey, aren't these the second and third sons? Why are you here? Oh, how can you make tea for the young lady? Oh, it's true!"
The servants who took the opportunity to hide from the outside heard the movement in the house, and they all rushed to serve.There was that clever one, who watched the movement in the house, slipped out of the yard at a wrong glance, and went straight to Fengniang's yard.
Inside the house, Er Niang finally calmed down, but she didn't know what to do.The two young masters in front of me are the decent sons of the Xiang family, and she, a concubine, always lacks confidence in front of the decent sons.
"The two young masters want to come and see the young lady? But the young lady is too young to eat anything but milk. The young master can no longer be like this today."
Erniang wanted to turn the big issue into a small one, so she quickly sent the two young masters away, so as not to cause any more quarrels.
Clinker, before Erniang could say anything else, there was a sound of footsteps coming from far and near outside, after a while, the door was pushed open, Fengniang walked in first, followed by Mrs. Li and Mrs. Zhao Shen and two people.
It turned out that the servants in this yard planned to find Fengniang alone, but they didn't expect Fengniang to be at Li's place together with Zhao Shen.When the news leaked out, the girls in Fengniang's yard didn't dare to hide it, and forced this servant to report to Li's yard together, which is why the three of them appeared together.
Erniang didn't know what happened, and when she saw the three heads of the Xiang family all came over, her face turned pale with fright.
Seeing this posture, Xiang Anwei and Xiang Anjue immediately froze, and honestly stood there with their arms folded, as if they hadn't done anything.
After asking about the reason, they found out that Xiang Anwei brought Xiang Anjue over without permission. Not only did they wake up the sleeping baby, but they almost poured a cup of hot tea on the baby's face. Both Feng Niang and Zhao Shen turned black.
Mrs. Li saw that something was wrong, and she was eager to protect her grandson, so she hurriedly opened her mouth to describe: "Hey, they are children, so it is understandable to be curious in their hearts, but fortunately it didn't cause a big disaster, Fengniang, Jinyan, you guys Just take it back and talk about it, but you are not allowed to use it."
This is the first time Zhao Shen has seen Xiang Li's concubine, seeing her weak and weak standing aside, even hearing Li Shi's obvious partiality, it's just her hands holding the baby tightly, her eyes dimmed , but there was no great indignation in his eyebrows.It seems that it is not a troublemaker.
Feng Niang made the decision. First, she sent people out and hurriedly invited a doctor to come and see the young lady, in case she was really frightened. Then she asked Xiang Anwei and Xiang Anjue to apologize and promised that there would be no next time. The people were led back to the yard respectively to receive another education.
Zhao Shen was very angry this time, especially when he heard that Xiang Anjue almost poured a cup of hot tea on the face of a newborn baby, he was terrified.
So, when Xiang Yuan returned to the courtyard where they lived, before entering the door, he heard Zhao Shen's very stern teaching voice from inside.Xiang Yuan stopped, stood outside and listened for a long time, and only after Zhao Shen finished his lesson did Shi Shiran enter the door.
Xiang Zhuangzhuang was so scolded that his head slumped, and when he saw Xiang Yuan, he called out listlessly: "Daddy", and then stood against the wall very consciously, reciting the book of rites in a low voice.
Xiang Yuan clenched his fist to his lips, being very careful not to laugh out loud.The daughter-in-law is in a fit of anger right now, and he doesn't want to get into trouble.You know, the more it gets to the end, the more changeable the temper of this daughter-in-law in the third trimester, she might be struck by lightning wherever she steps on, so he has to be careful.
Zhao Shen supported his stomach, and slammed Xiang Zhuangzhuang's good deeds to Xiang Yuan, showing that he punished him now for a good reason.At the end, I asked Xiang Yuan if it was right to do this, and should he be taught a profound lesson?Mr. Xiang saw that his daughter-in-law looked like a fire-breathing dinosaur, how could he dare to say that she was wrong?It's just a thumbs up.
Xiang Zhuangzhuang nestled pitifully in the corner, and cast a mournful glance at his father.
Taking advantage of his daughter-in-law's inattention, Xiang Yuan spread his hands to Xiang Zhuangzhuang, expressing his helplessness.
In fact, Xiang Yuan didn't feel that this matter was serious in his own mind. As a child, it is still necessary to maintain a strong curiosity.However, this incident did expose an extremely serious problem.
The management of the servants of the Xiang family's house is really out of character!
While he is at home, he must set up rules for them.
