Chapter 95 Lost the wife and lost the army(1/2)

When she returned to the Song Mansion, Song Ruoxi went to see Ji Yun first. Ouyang was there. The sister-in-law and sister-in-law sat on the warm couch and chatted, and went forward to salute and said, "Xi'er pays homage to her second aunt, and her second aunt will be blessed."

Ouyang reached out and helped Song Ruoxi up, hugged her in his arms, and said with a smile: "Three brothers and sisters, I don't envy you, I just envy you for having a good daughter."

Ji Yun curled her lips disgusted, "What a good daughter, just a wild girl, you want to like it, I'll give it to you."

"Stop, I'm going to take Xi'er away. You'll have to cry in a blink of an eye, yelling that your second sister-in-law is a bad person and robbing my baby daughter." Ouyang laughed jokingly.

Song Ruoxi smiled and said, "Second aunt, mom, I brought a fried turtle dove from outside..."

"Help! Third Madam, help!" A shrill voice came in.

Ji Yun was shocked and asked, "Who is calling for help?"

"Hey, you can't go in."

"Third wife, I am Caiping beside Miss Six. Please go and save my girl!" Caiping was stopped outside by Fucha and others.

"Rong Qiao, let her come in." Ji Yun said.

Caiping ran in and saw Ouyang being there, kneeling on the ground, "Second, third, and eldest, you are going to kill the sixth girl. Please go and save my girl quickly!"

Ji Yi is a illegitimate child, just like Ji Zhen and Ji Sui, who suffered a loss under the old lady. Xiao Jiang is different from Ouyang Ji Yun. She is in the same family as the old lady. Ji Yi is more wary of her than Zhen Ji Sui. He is afraid that Xiao Jiang will abuse her two illegitimate children, so he often asks about secret subsidies. Song Ruoyan's life is not too sad. Xiao Jiang usually only exerts his anger on Aunt Zou and dares not touch Song Ruoyan. What's wrong with her today?

It is natural for the mother to teach her daughter a lesson. Besides, the two sisters-in-law can't take care of it. However, since someone comes to ask for help, they can go and persuade her and watch the show. Ouyang and Ji Yun exchanged their eyes.

"At least, the sixth girl called us aunt. If we don't know, it would be fine. Now that we know, I won't go and see. If she is beaten, outsiders will say that we are aunts who are cruel and don't even care about the life and death of our niece." Ouyang stood up and said.

Ji Yun raised her hand and held the golden hairpin on her hair bun, "What the second sister-in-law said is that if a girl who is already in the hairpin is injured, it will delay major issues."

Song Ruoxi followed him out and was about to see what happened.

Ji Yun turned around and said, "Xi'er, go back to your yard."

Song Ruoxi pursed his lips and returned to the yard to call Qiaotao, "Qiaotao, go to Lanpuyuan to find out what happened."

"I'll go now." Qiaotao took the order and left.

Qiaotao is extremely efficient in doing things. During dinner, Song Ruoxi learned about what happened in the orchid courtyard. Yesterday, Song Ruoyan became famous at the Hundred Flowers Conference, and this morning, the wives of two families came to talk.

He was not very good at home. One was a sixth-rank attendant in the Hanlin Academy, and the other was a sixth-rank attendant in Guanglu Temple. He was also a concubine's son. The concubine's son was paired with a concubine's daughter. The sixth-rank vs. the fifth-rank is considered a good match, but Xiao Jiang was annoyed. Song Ruoman had not yet settled. How dare Song Ruoyan think about this? It is shameless.

First, she slapped Song Ruoyan's biological mother, Aunt Zou, and kicked her hard, then punished her with tea residue, and knelt in the yard with a bunch of blisters on her face.

Song Ruoxi curled his lips contemptuously. The Jiang family has a long history of education and is a vicious method like two aunts and nephews.

"The eldest lady is so cruel. She wants her maid to use a ruler to hit the sixth girl in the face." Qiao Tao said in a low voice.

Song Ruoxi took a breath and slapped the face with a ruler. Xiao Jiang clearly wanted to destroy Song Ruoyan's appearance, "Is it a hit?"

"No, Miss Six got up from the ground without waiting for the maid to come forward, and smashed and beaten up in the room, as if crazy, and no one dared to move forward. Aunt Zou saw that the house was making a fuss and was afraid that Miss Six would suffer, so she asked Caixia and Caiping to shout help, and ran here to invite the second and third wife over."

Song Ruoxi was surprised. It turned out that Song Ruoyan could be so fierce! "What about later?"

"After the second wife and the third wife passed by, the sixth girl put down the porcelain bottle in her hand after the persuasion of the two wives. However, the sixth girl smashed all the decorations in the eldest wife's room. I heard that I had lost at least tens of thousands of taels of silver, which was enough to make the eldest wife feel distressed for a while." Qiaotao said gloatingly.

Song Ruoxi swallowed the food in his mouth and asked, "When the master comes back, he didn't say anything?"

"It is said that the eldest lady is not virtuous for her wife, and is not kind to her mother, and..." Qiao Tao frowned in embarrassment, "Miss, they can't explain what the eldest master said clearly, and I don't understand it very much. Anyway, the eldest master went to beg the old lady, saying that the eldest lady would go to the Buddhist temple to pray for the sick old lady, and leave the affairs in the mansion to the second wife to take care of."

"Did the old man agree?"

"I agree, starting tomorrow, the second wife will be in charge of the family."

So Xiao Jiang taught his concubines and daughters a lesson, and even threw away the power of the head of the family, and lost the rice. After the sick old lady Song found out, she was so angry that she vomited blood. The person who was serving him was so panicked that she quickly hired a doctor.

"I'm angry and must rest, otherwise..." The doctor swallowed the bad words back into his stomach, "The old lady is old and should take care of her."

If the old lady really goes, all three concubines will resign from their posts, and the marriage between Song Ruoying and Song Ruohu will be postponed. Everyone begs the doctor to cure the old lady and send good medicine to the room without any money.

Once the emperor was once a minister, this sentence also applies to the mistress of the family. The Lanpuyuan gate was neglected and the Meisuyuan people came and went. However, Ouyang considered that the old man Song was old and the second house would be separated sooner or later, so she was too lazy to bother to stuff people everywhere and plundered the money wholeheartedly.

Of course, while making money, Ouyang did not forget to take care of the third and fourth rooms that were once denied by Xiao Jiang. In Song Ruoxi, Song Ruohan and Song Ruoqing found that the food had improved, Song Ruoying found that the food had become worse.

Song Ruoying took a shower and saw that the midnight snack had arrived. She opened it and took the spoon and took it. Her face was slightly dark and she asked angrily: "What is this?"

"Girl, this is bird's nest soup, my late-night snack." Hong Ping said tremblingly.

"Bird's nest soup?" Song Ruoying's eyebrows were raised, and the clear soup was weak, and there was a shadow of bird's nest!

"Girl, the big kitchen is too bullying now. Is this what people can eat? My wife used to treat them well, but now my wife is not doing much, and the old lady is still there. These people are taking advantage of the situation and deliberately treating the girl harshly." Lu Liu ignored Hongping's eyes and added fuel to the fire.

Song Ruoying grew up spoiled, and never received such treatment. Her lunch and dinner dishes have become dissatisfied. Her midnight snacks have become more intense, and she is angry and said coldly: "Take people to teach those things that are inferior to others."

"Yes, girl." Lu Liu took the chicken feathers as a command arrow and summoned a few little maids and maids in the yard, took brooms and door sticks and went to the big kitchen.

The late-night snacks of wives and girls in each room were all passed away, and the people in the kitchen were busy cleaning and preparing to rest. Green Willow led the people in, and without saying a word, they started to smash them. Suddenly, pots and pans flew together, and oil, salt, sauce and vinegar mixed together.

So, Ouyang, who had just rested, was invited by the kitchen person again. When he learned the whole story, he curled his lips and sneered: "I know everything. It's too late today. You go back and rest. I will deal with it tomorrow."

"The third girl is the eldest brother's daughter, don't treat her badly." Song Zhen said, touching his nose.

Ouyang glanced at him and said, "I didn't treat her badly. I just came according to the rules of my family."

The next day, Old Master Song was at home.

Ouyang came to him with the keys of the account book and the cards, put the things on the table, knelt down and kowtowed, "Father, my daughter-in-law has limited talent. If you can't do this family well, I'll leave you."

Old Master Song was stunned, "From the second family, you get up first, what happened? Tell me slowly."

"Thank you, father." Ouyang stood up, and without saying much, he handed the account book to Mr. Song to see.

Old Master Song opened the account book and looked carefully. His face was gloomy. The cost of a long house was the sum of the second and fourth rooms. The shark fin, bird's nest, ginseng, angelica and other items received from the warehouse every month were several times more than those received from the second and fourth rooms. The cost of the third room in the past two months was the same as that of the second and fourth rooms. He had never received shark fins and other items.

"Father, it's me. The third and fourth brothers and sisters don't eat bird's nest shark fin every day, and they cook tonics. The daughter-in-law thought that the four rooms were the same, but she didn't want it." Ouyang paused, "Last night's midnight snack was all sweet soup for bean curd. The people in the third girl's room thought that the leftovers were leftovers, so they went to the kitchen to make a big fuss, which broke many things. The third girl was a girl waiting to marry. The daughter-in-law wanted to take care of her face, so she didn't say much, so she would ask her father to let her sister-in-law come out and take the house again, so that no one would say that the daughter-in-law was harsh on her niece."

Little Jiang raised three legitimate daughters indefinitely, and squandered money from the public servants to supplement their parents' family. Ouyang and Wen had long complained, but the old lady was suppressing her, so she swallowed her anger.

After the Ouyang family's housekeeper, of course she had to cut the expenses for the long house. She thought that it would take ten days and half a month to react before the long house would react. Who knew that only two days later, Song Ruoying couldn't help but get angry. Ouyang was ecstatic and took advantage of the opportunity to suppress the long house. In this way, even if the old lady was cured of illness and Xiao Jiang came out of the Buddhist temple in the future, she could no longer be the director of the family. This was a generous gift she had returned to Wen.

Old Master Song closed the account book and said, "If you go to find the old man, just say it's my intention and let her make up for the loss."

"Father, daughter-in-law is brother and sister-in-law." Ouyang did not want to say that she forced her eldest sister-in-law.

Old Master Song glanced at Ouyang. He knew the differences between his daughters-in-law. Even though he knew that Ouyang had retreated, he had to pretend not to know, rubbed his temples, and said, "I will tell the boss about this matter. You will continue to control this family. Follow the rules. No one dares to tell you gossip."

"With this sentence from my father, my daughter-in-law will be relieved." Ouyang retreated and went to Xiao Baoxia, a daily director, to handle the internal affairs. He ordered people to catch Lu Liu and others who smashed last night, each with ten bans and fined three months of money, which is a small punishment for the big punishment.

When the maid was beaten and injured, Song Ruoying was furious and was about to rush to Xiaobaoxia to find Ouyang to argue. She was hugged by her wet nurse and persuaded him: "Girl, the old lady is sick. The eldest lady has entered the Buddhist temple. No one protects you. You can't quarrel with the second lady. A crime of disobeying the elders is suppressed, and you will lose your reputation, a girl."

"Are I just let her bully this?" Song Ruoying shouted unwillingly.

"Girl, bear it. When the old lady recovers from illness, the eldest lady will leave the Buddhist temple and take back the power of the head. It will not be too late to deal with them at that time."

Song Ruoying gasped heavily, and after a long time, she squeezed out from her teeth, "Okay, I'll bear it."

These things have no effect on Song Ruoxi's life. In the morning, I went to pay my respects to Ji Yun. After breakfast, I went back to my room to read books, practice calligraphy, play the flute, and play the guzheng. It is an absolute life of a lady who never goes out of the door.

"Is Sister Qiaotao here?" A question came from outside the door.

"Here." Qiao Tao agreed to walk out, and soon she came back, "Girl, Miss Three and Miss Zhu are here."

When everyone in the room suddenly became uneasy when they heard that Song Ruoying had arrived, they quickly packed up their things.

"Hey, you don't have to clean up. She won't dare to touch things again today." Song Ruoxi said.

"Girl, it's better to be cautious." Xiangduo walked to Song Ruoxi, "Girl, give me the jade gourd, and take it out to play when the third girl leaves."

"No need, I will definitely make her afraid to touch things today." Song Ruoxi held the jade gourd tightly.

"Don't worry if she is touched away by her at that time." Xiang Xiu said.

"No, we bet that she will not dare to touch anything today." Song Ruoxi said confidently.

Everyone didn't make bets with her and they were busy packing up their little things.

"Have you packed up all the things?" Xiang Xiu asked.

"Everything is done." Everyone said in unison.

After packing up the things, someone entered the door. Song Ruoxi gave up the seat with a smile, and the maid brought three cups of tea. Song Ruoying and Zhu Qianyao were green tea, and Song Ruoxi was longan tea.

"Actually, like the seventh sister, I also like to drink longan tea." Zhu Qianyao brought her relationship closer, changed her name, and specifically stated that she had the same interests as Song Ruoxi.

Song Ruoxi looked at her and smiled slightly, saying, "Xiangduo, change Miss Zhu's cup of tea."

Xiangduo served Zhu Qianyao longan tea again.

Zhu Qianyao took two sips of tea, put down the cup, picked up the embroidery shed beside it, and praised: "Seventh sister has such a clever hand. This butterfly is embroidered so well, and the color is natural, just like a living one."

"Miss Zhu praised the wrong person. This is embroidered by Xiangxi. I am not as good as her skills. I can barely embroider it." Song Ruoxi smiled.

"That seven sister is better than me. My mother said the butterfly I embroidered is two colorful balls." Zhu Qianyao smiled mockingly.

"Miss Zhu is too modest." Song Ruoxi Road.

Song Ruoying put down the cup and said, "Hey, you guys play chess, I'll take a look around."

"If you can't get it, you'll let the parrot take it away." Song Ruoxi looked at Song Ruoying with some meaning.

Song Ruoying's smile froze on her face, "Seventh sister is joking. The parrot's mouth is so small, how can she take away the chess piece?"

"Although it has a small mouth, it is very capable. It can not only take away chess pieces, but also take away balls." Song Ruoxi's eyes turned and looked at the two parrots cleaning each other's feathers in the bird cage. "I just said that if it dares to pick up things again, I will kill it and make soup."

"I'm afraid the parrot won't understand the words of Sister Qi." Zhu Qianyao covered her mouth and smiled.
