Those things about the landlady

Chapter 10

Shu Ran looked at Sister Ning dotingly, how could she not satisfy such a small request.

"Okay, my mother will sort it out for you. If you want to learn how to cook, my mother can also teach you. Although there are many chores in the back house, occasionally cooking to please yourself is also a very good thing."

Sister Ning agreed with this very much, and now her thinking is more pragmatic, and she is willing to learn more useful things from her mother.

Sister Xiaobawang Xin didn't care what they said, she lowered her head and gnawed on the fish, like a little cat, with some sauce on her face.

Seeing this, Shu Ran shook her head and laughed, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped it clean for her. Sister Ning felt warm in her heart, and couldn't help but sigh:
"It's not bad if the days continue to live like this."

To be honest, Sister Ning prefers her mother now, as if nothing can trouble her, as if no matter what difficulties she encounters, she will stand unswervingly in front of the two sisters.

"Mother, if dad comes back, can we still live so comfortably?"

Sister Ning felt a little worried in her heart, so she blurted out this sentence somehow, Shu Ran was a little surprised when she heard it.

She looked into Sister Ning's eyes, as if she saw panic in her eyes.

After a little brainstorming, Shu Ran figured it out. The child was worried for her. She was already sensitive and intelligent, so how could she not understand the real situation of their mother and daughter three.

Shu Ran hugged her distressedly, stroked her hair, and comforted her in a low voice:
"Don't worry, Sister Ning. No matter what, I am your father's original wife. I didn't care about it before. If I really care about it, those people in the small courtyard will not have a good life. You guys My father is not a mindless idiot, mother is there for everything, so you don't have to worry about it."

Sister Ning lowered her head, with tears in her eyes and a nasal voice, she said:
"Brother Zhong is a boy, but my sister and I are girls' family. In Dad's heart, maybe we are not as important as a son together."

This may be the knot in Ning's heart. Shu Ran originally thought that if she was tougher, her daughters would be more confident, so she could stand confidently in the world.

But the reality is that as long as the people in that small courtyard exist, they will always feel uneasy.

You can't just kill the child because of this matter, Shu Ran still can't do it if you really want to ignore human life, she said earnestly:
"You shouldn't think like this. You are a concubine and he is a concubine. Whether you are a male or a female, a loyal brother is not as noble as you. With a mother, he can't inherit the family business, and he can't threaten you. What's more, if I This womb gave birth to a younger brother, so with your father's place, Brother Zhong is nothing else."

No matter what, Shu Ran will always guard them, and they will not be destroyed for themselves.

"Mother, my father should be back in a few days. Will they go to sue? If father is angry with you, what should we do?"

The days were so comfortable that she almost forgot that the big boss in the mansion was coming back soon.

Shu Ran calmly said:
"These are not things you should worry about. After you have eaten, go back to the yard to rest and help your mother take care of your younger sister."

Shu Ran had no choice but to dismiss her daughter like this. In fact, she didn't know how to face this Master Yao.

After sending off the two daughters, Shu Ran's yard also fell silent, and Mother Zhong looked at her a little hesitant to speak.

The new girls are almost learning the rules, and Mother Zhong also knows that she is about to leave. After all, she is an old man who has been with Shu Ran for many years. Although she is reluctant to part with her, she dare not complain. Too bad.

Thinking about what I saw today, I couldn't help but reminded:
"Ma'am, you have time to pay attention to the movement in the small courtyard. The old slave reckons that Aunt Mei will never be honest. Seeing that the master is coming back, you have made her suffer so much. It's definitely not over."

Shu Ran is really impatient to deal with these things, but now she can't just drive people away, she just wants to be out of sight and out of mind.

"Mother Zhong, what did you see?"

Although Mama Zhong has deficiencies, she still has some loyalty. She hesitated and said: "Last night, this old servant saw Aunt Mei's servant girl sneaking out of the house by the corner gate. I don't know why. People also say that Aunt Qing always goes to Aunt Mei's house to eat together, so it may be that the two of them are planning something."

That is to say, there is no substantive evidence. Shu Ran will not underestimate them. The bottom people have their own means of survival and can do things well, so she dare not bet on them.

"Since that's the case, let people watch over there more. The people here can't ignore it. After all, it's not easy to see through people or ghosts at a glance. The master is going back to the house, so everyone should be more vigilant."

Shu Ran doesn't want to put people to death, it doesn't mean that others don't have this idea of ​​her, and it is necessary to be defensive.

The mansion is not peaceful, and it is not easy for Master Yao outside the mansion.

This time Yao Jiawang only brought a dozen or so entourages with him. Although he is skilled in martial arts, he still needs to be intimidating when he is going to deal with things in other places, so it is unnecessary to fight alone.

Master Yao is indeed a ruthless person, everyone who has dealt with him knows it, most people really dare not confront him head-on, all the money from this trip has been recovered.

Because he wanted to find out about his elder brother, he stayed outside for a few more days before rushing home. In the evening, there was a sudden heavy rain, and the group was trapped in the ruined temple.

A few attendants picked up some branches and lit a fire, and dried their clothes around the fire. Although it was the vernal equinox, it was still cold in the morning and evening, not to mention that they were exposed to rain, and wearing wet clothes would inevitably catch the cold.

Yao Jiawang sat alone, holding the letter from Butler Wang in his hand, and looked at it expressionlessly.

He is in his prime, and he looks powerful and powerful. Although his appearance is ordinary, his temperament is not ordinary. At this time, his face is very serious and deep.

Donglai saw that his master hadn't moved at all, so he brought the roasted rabbit meat over and asked in a low voice:
"Master, but what happened in the mansion?"

Both he and Steward Wang are Master Yao's confidantes, but one follows him around and the other manages the house, so the division of labor is different.

Yao Jiawang put the letter into his bosom, took the rabbit's leg from him, and said indifferently: "It's nothing serious, your wife is pregnant."

Dong Lai was overjoyed when he heard the words, "Congratulations, master, my wife will definitely give birth to a brother this time, and the master happens to have time to teach himself."

Yao Jiawang has been running out frequently since he got married, on the one hand to make a living in the mansion, and on the other hand to inquire about his elder brother.

In the early years, his elder brother sold himself in order to feed him, and he can't find anyone until now.

Donglai's words didn't change his expression a bit, he asked:
"Tell me, can a person suddenly change his temperament and become another look?"

Dong Lai was taken aback by the sudden question asked by the Yao family. He was always shrewd and knew that there must be something wrong at home.

He replied cautiously: "It's not impossible. If a person is stimulated by something, he suddenly thinks about it, and it is possible to become completely different from before. But something happened to our wife? If something happens at this time, brother? Not dangerous."

Yao Jiawang's emotions didn't fluctuate much, and he said in a calm voice: "It's nothing serious, you should pay more attention to the affairs of the mansion in the future, no matter what, the rules of the mansion must not be messed up."

Dong Lai hurriedly agreed, and he was hesitant. Although his father looked indifferent to his wife, he still respected his original wife in his heart. As long as his wife gave birth to a brother-in-law, no matter how many loyal brothers he had, he would not be able to match him.

A confidant who can serve the master for many years is not stupid, and he can understand it better than anyone else.
