Chapter 52
"By the way, mother, I'm going to visit my grandparents' house later, and my grandmother will stay with me for two days, so my mother doesn't have to worry about me."

Song Jinyue turned the conversation elsewhere, and Shen's embarrassment eased a little.

"The mother ordered someone to prepare a generous gift, and you will take it to Mrs. Zhang for your mother in a while, thanking the Zhang family for taking care of you in the past few days." Shen said with a caring look.

Song Jinyue nodded in agreement.

Shen's stuff, she doesn't want it, so she can sell it, after all, who has trouble with money?

And even if you donate it, you can still accumulate some merit for the deceased mother, so why not do it?

Seeing what Song Jinyue had said, Mrs. Song greeted everyone for dinner.

Everyone has different thoughts, and eating a meal is boring.

After lunch, Mrs. Song wanted to go back to take a nap, so she didn't let everyone talk, and everyone left. Song Jinyue took Qiu Yun back to Mingzhuxuan.

After a quarter of an hour, Mrs. Shen really ordered Mother Zhao to send some silver over.

There was a sneering smile on the corner of Madam Zhao's lips, she held the tray of silver taels, and said: "Madam said, she was worried that the things she gave didn't meet the old lady Zhang's wishes, so she simply folded them into cash and let the second miss personally Go pick out the right gift to send."

Song Jinyue was a little surprised, she didn't expect that Shen could have someone send Baiyin over.

Song Jinyue ordered someone to accept the tray of silver, and asked Madam Zhao to go back and bring her thanks to Mrs. Shen.

Qiu Yun stepped forward to take the tray from Nanny Zhao, but Nanny Zhao had bad intentions, before she touched the tray, Nanny Zhao let go of her hand.

Bang!

There was a loud noise, and the silver covered by the red cloth on the black lacquered tray rolled to the ground.

Qiu Yun was startled and angry, staring at Mother Zhao with wide eyes.

Mammy Zhao pretended to be terrified, and hurriedly argued: "Second miss... old slave, old slave..."

Song Jinyue stared straight at Zhao Nanny, raised her lips, and sneered, "Zhao Nanny, didn't you forget the lesson from Shangzhuang in Yunquan?"

Mother Zhao instinctively raised her hand to cover her cheek, and took a step back.

This matter was ordered by the lady.

Because the second young lady pawned the jewelry given by the wife and the eldest lady earlier, although this matter was settled in the end, the lady was dissatisfied after all.
How can you still give the handle to the second lady now?Today I specially prepared 100 taels of silver and asked her to send it, and said to destroy the second lady's arrogance once.

That's what mother Zhao is like.

But she actually forgot the slap that was slapped by the second miss.

"Today, Mammy will either kneel on the ground and pick up the 100 taels of silver, or I will go back to my father and sell Mammy to the house. Presumably it must be you, a naughty slave, who gossips in front of mother every day and provokes me The relationship between mothers!"

Mother Zhao's heart trembled when she heard this, if this matter really went to the Duke, it would be different now, Mrs. Song holds most of the real power in the mansion.

Come to think of it, Mrs. Song would also be willing to sell her out of the house, so as to lose her right and left arms.

For a moment, she really wanted to slap herself.

It's enough to run on the second lady with words, why do you want to do something that can't be brought to the table now?
Without further ado, Zhao Momo knelt on the ground and hurriedly begged: "Second Miss is kind, please forgive this old slave this time, this old slave is getting old, and lard has covered his heart, Second Miss, don't want to be as knowledgeable as this old slave. .”

After kowtowing three times in a row, Mother Zhao hurriedly picked up the silver pattern scattered on the ground, rearranged it, and presented it to Qiu Yun in person, "Qiu Yun, don't worry about it with the old slave. Today, the old slave is right. I can't live with you."

There was no trace of disdain and arrogance in his tone.

Qiu Yun looked at her own lady and asked her what she meant. Song Jinyue motioned for her to take it, and then waved her hand to let Mother Zhao back out.

She was just scaring Zhao Nanny just now, if Zhao Nanny really left and there was no available Nanny in front of Shen, how would she fight against Mrs. Song in the future?

She didn't want the two of them to decide the winner quickly, nor did she want the east wind to overwhelm the west wind. In the end, it would be better if they could not give in to each other and couldn't tell the winner.

After she has dealt with everything, she will deal with Shen's mother and daughter.

Song Jinyue asked Nanny Yuan to count the 100 taels of silver as food money for the small kitchen, and asked Qiu Yun to go to her storeroom to find a few jade and stone Fu Lu Shou ornaments to bring to her grandmother.

Song Jinyue was about to go out when Mrs. Song and her son's maid came to deliver the post.

That post was from Mrs. Zhao's family. Mrs. Zhao invited the female family members of the Song family to attend Mrs. Zhao's [-]th birthday, which was scheduled to be three days later.

Song Jinyue put away the post and left the mansion with Qiu Yun.

After getting into the carriage of the Duke's mansion, he told the driver to go straight to General Zhang's mansion.

Perhaps because of the fall in recent years, there are more people on the long street than in the past, and it looks more lively.

When the carriage stopped in front of the gate of Zhang Mansion, the guard at the gate saw that it was Miss Song Er who came, and hurriedly asked people to go in and answer.

This time when she came, she didn't see Nanny Liu at the door, so she asked why Nanny Liu was not there.

Only then did I learn that Grandma Liu took leave of absence two days ago and went back to the countryside. Because her daughter-in-law gave birth, she went home to take care of her confinement.

The maidservant of Zhang's mansion welcomes Second Miss Song to the old lady's courtyard.

Walking down the corridor, Song Jinyue felt that the atmosphere in Zhang Mansion was extremely heavy, so she asked the maid who led the way, "What happened in the mansion?"

The maid stopped, turned her head and bowed, and then respectfully replied: "Madam and Miss entered the palace yesterday, but they have not returned yet. The old lady is worried about this matter, so she sent someone to ask, but there is no result yet."

Song Jinyue nodded, and then continued to walk towards her grandmother's courtyard.

But I was thinking in my heart, why did my aunt and cousin Tongzhi never come back after entering the palace?But something happened in Dingzhou?Things are ahead of schedule?
But from Cousin Ping's letter, we can't see anything strange about Mr. Xiang from Dingzhou Prefecture.

Everything should have not happened yet.

Or did something else happen?
After receiving the letter, Grandma Jia came out to meet Miss Biao, and the maid who had led the way backed away.

"Miss Biao, the old lady is chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall right now. Considering the time, it should be almost here. Please wait a moment." Nanny Jia lifted the bamboo curtain and invited Song Jinyue into the main room.

As soon as she stepped into the door, she heard the sound of knocking wooden fish and chanting scriptures from the compartment. The sandalwood in the room was thick and thick. Song Jinyue nodded, then went to the hall and sat down.

There was no other maidservant in the house, so Nanny Jia personally brought a cup of hot tea over.

Song Jinyue signaled to Nanny Jia not to be busy, she just sit down.

Song Jinyue picked up the teacup, blew on it, took a sip, and put the teacup down again. The sound of chanting quietly ended in the compartment. Song Jinyue hurriedly put down the teacup and went to the compartment door to greet her.

"Mother Jia, help me up."

Nanny Jia was about to go in, but Nanny Jia was stopped by Song Jinyue, and she went into the cubicle herself.

Madam Zhang turned her head and saw that it was her granddaughter who had arrived, and the sadness on her face disappeared immediately, "When did you come? I have been waiting for a long time..."
