Chapter 179 Nightmare ([-])

Mrs. Wu was calculating today's income with her daughter-in-law when her son walked in and said, "There is someone waiting for you at the alley."

Mrs. Wu asked, "Who?"

Her son handed her a piece of silver: "I don't know. The person sitting in the carriage may be a lady or lady of some family, and he is generous."

Probably the nobles who ask for their own haircuts every day, they can't afford to offend them.Mrs. Wu hurriedly patted her dress, and hurried to the entrance of the alley, only to see a carriage parked against the wall, and a simple-looking coachman stood beside the carriage. Seeing her, she smiled and said, "Is it Mother Wu? Our girl I'm looking for you."

Mrs. Wu walked to the side of the car, saluted with a smile, and asked cautiously: "I don't know what orders you have?"

The curtain of the car was lifted from the inside, and the little girl named Xinxin from Anzhai in Jinyu Lane showed half a smile and said enthusiastically: "Mom, please come up, our girl has something to say to you."

Mrs. Wu took a closer look, and sure enough, she saw An Yi smiling at her in the car.Mrs. Wu hesitated for a moment, pleaded guilty, got into the car, and said cautiously: "I don't know what orders you have for finding your wife?"

An Yi smiled and said, "It's nothing important. I passed by here and suddenly remembered my mother, so I just stopped by to see you."

Mrs. Wu is old and has seen a lot of things, so she will not easily believe this excuse, but it is not easy to ask, so she listened quietly with a smile.Sure enough, An Yi only chatted for a while, and then explained the purpose of her visit: "To be honest, I have something to ask my mother, and I also ask my mother to return the letter between me and you, and don't mention me and Jiu in front of others. The fate of my sister came."

Mrs. Wu was stunned, and said: "The letter was written by the girl. If the girl wants it, the old woman can just return it to you. It's no big deal. However, Miss Jiu has been gone for so many years, who would ask her?"

"Mom doesn't know, that day I met the wives and ladies of the Anhou Mansion in the Yongchang Hou Mansion, and then met the current Grandma Tian, ​​they..." Anyi sighed, "Don't mention it." Forget it, in short, when people leave tea, they don't even have a few good words. Mom just promises me, don't let this matter out, so that those people won't have to blame me again on Ninth Sister. Mom misses the old love, so many years I still remember Ninth Sister, if Izumi knew about it, she would be gratified."

Because of what happened a few years ago, Mrs. Wu didn't have a good impression of the people in Anhou's mansion. After hearing what An Yi said, she agreed: "Don't worry, girl, don't say it's not a big deal, just make it harder. Miss Nine's love, the old woman also has to do it."

An Yi solemnly bowed to Mrs. Wu: "Thank you, Mom."

Mrs. Wu hurriedly said: "I can't do it, I can't do it. Girl, wait a moment, I'll wait for the old lady to take the letter with you."

"I don't dare to trouble my mother to run away, let Xinxin go with you." Anyi smiled and said: "I also need to ask my brother and sister-in-law in the family to help, don't mention anything that shouldn't be mentioned, I will never forget your love."

Mrs. Wu agreed, and hurried back to get the letter.After entering the house, she saw her daughter-in-law standing in panic with her hands behind her back in front of the closet where she kept her important things. She couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?"

Her daughter-in-law immediately took two steps back, shook her head and said, "I didn't do anything, I saw some dust here, so I just wiped it off."

Mrs. Wu immediately slapped her across the face: "You lowly whore, how dare you pick up your mother-in-law's dowry, why don't you beat her to death and drive her out? How did your parents teach you?"

Her daughter-in-law didn't dare to fight back, she covered her face and cried, Mrs. Wu opened her hand, took out a crumpled piece of paper, saw that it was the letter An Yishi had just asked her for, and gave her daughter-in-law a hard look With a glance, he asked his son to come in to clean up his wife, and ran out to deliver the letter to Anyi himself.Seeing that An Yi looked at the crumpled letter paper and smiled, she quickly explained: "I almost used it to light the lamp for my daughter-in-law."

I'm afraid Zhang Xin's hand has already reached here?An Yi didn't point it out, and said with a smile: "Use it if you use it. Mom just needs to remember to promise me. Remember, don't mention the ninth sister. If anyone asks, you can say that Mrs. Yongchanghou introduced you. Just comb my hair." After speaking, he gently pushed a purse: "This is to thank my mother for combing my hair last time, it was done very well, and I will inevitably trouble my mother in the future."

Mrs. Wu couldn't refuse, so she just took the purse and said goodbye. When she walked to a place where there was no one else, she opened it and took a closer look.

"Go home." An Yi gently lowered the car curtain, and tore the letter into pieces bit by bit.As she expected, Zhang Xin really walked towards the finish line step by step according to her guidance.She didn't care whether this letter would fall into Zhang Xin's hands, or whether the news that "An Jiu recommended Mrs. Wu to comb her hair" would be leaked. She asked Mrs. Wu to comb her hair, and asked Mrs. Bai for a dress. She was going to release the news intentionally or unintentionally, and then deliberately covered it up, causing Zhang Xin to have trouble sleeping and eating, and restless.As for the letter from Bai Laosan, let Zhang Xin think about it for now.

Zhang Xin, from now on, I want you to be scared every day.

When Mrs. Wu returned home, her son had already beaten her daughter-in-law to the point of death. When the daughter-in-law saw her, she rushed over to confess her mistake and beg for mercy. Divorce you!"

Then her daughter-in-law timidly said: "It's Nanny Gui, who is next to the grandma of Cheng's family in Tiansi, Yingfeng Street. He promised me ten taels of silver, and asked me who recommended my mother-in-law to comb the hair of that Doctor Xiaoan. I'm fascinated. So I said everything. She asked me to believe it, and promised me ten taels of silver, and I..."

Mrs. Wu spit on her face and scolded: "You have shallow eyelids, raised by a small family, have you never seen money?"

Her daughter-in-law cried into a ball and got up to seek death. Mrs. Wu slapped her hard twice and said: "If you really want to die, go to death, and if you don't want to die, then don't make trouble." , If someone asks again, eat back your words! If you can’t control your mouth and greed, see if I don’t cut your mouth with scissors!” After saying this, the whole family sat together and checked the statement carefully.

Nanny Gui hurried into the Tianfu, found Zhang Xin under the grape trellis, sent the other servants away, and whispered a few words into Zhang Xin's ear.

Zhang Xin repeated with a heavy expression: "Both Mr. Bai and Mrs. Wu have received a letter? There are four sets of dresses that came out from Mr. Bai? Was it ordered five years ago? The person who ordered the dresses is specific." Who doesn't know? Where is Mrs. Wu, are you sure you combed her hair for that person's sake?"

Nanny Gui whispered: "Yes. This old slave has repeatedly confirmed that there is absolutely nothing wrong."
