Chapter 83
The old lady, Aunt Ma, and Murong Yu had dinner at the same table, and enjoyed it happily. Aunt Zhang stood in the room like an outsider, furious, but dared not speak out: "Old lady, if there is nothing wrong, concubine I will take my leave first." The purpose was to remind the old lady that she was also present, even if she was pretending, the old lady should still allow herself to eat at the same table.

Unexpectedly, the old lady waved her hand without looking back, "Go."

Aunt Zhang was almost choked with anger, but the words had already been spoken, there was no possibility of taking them back, so she blessed the old lady and withdrew from the inner room.

The old lady took a sip of the tea, and turned her eyes on Murong Yu and Aunt Ma: "I am getting old, and I am unable to do many things, Yu'er, Aunt Ma, the housekeeper of the Marquis Mansion, I will leave it to the two of you for the time being. ..."

The old lady's voice was not too loud, just enough for Aunt Zhang in the outer room to hear. Aunt Zhang gritted her teeth angrily, clenched her hands into fists, and her long nails were embedded in her flesh. She didn't even notice: Taking back the power of housekeeper from my own hands, I can't wait to hand it over to Aunt Ma. The old lady's meaning is already obvious. When Aunt Ma gives birth to a son, she will be supported as the main wife. No, I must not let this happen. The position of the main room can only be your own.

In the inner room, Murong Yu was full of smiles: "Grandmother, it's not like you don't know that I can only write and compose poems. The housekeeper is too troublesome, I can't do it, and the affairs of the Hou Mansion should be left to Aunt Ma." .”

The old lady should be probing, not really wanting to hand over the power to herself and Aunt Ma, if she agrees to it, the old lady will definitely be suspicious, not to mention, there is Aunt Zhang who is not willing to be taken away from the power, watching from the sidelines, Just make a stumbling block, and the person in power can deal with it for a long time. If you deal with it well, it is your responsibility. If you don't deal with it well, it is your fault. I don't have the mood to deal with such thankless things.

"Madam, I'm pregnant, so I'm afraid I can't take care of the house." Aunt Ma also very wisely rejected the old lady's proposal.

The old lady was happy in her heart, but she didn't show it, she sighed lightly: "Forget it, after Aunt Ma gives birth to her grandson and takes care of herself, it won't be too late to take over the power of the Marquis."

There are younger generations of aunts in the house, if the old lady takes back the power to manage it herself, it will definitely attract criticism, but if she asks what the younger generation of aunts mean, they are unwilling to manage it themselves and push it to her, and her housekeeper will be justified. Naturally, it is not good for others to say anything.

Aunt Zhang came out of Songshoutang, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became. She and Aunt Ma were both aunts. The old lady entertained her and neglected herself because she was pregnant. The power has been given to her, how can she not be angry, how can she not hate.

Aunt Ma is just the daughter of a fifth-rank official from another province, and she is the daughter of a third-rank censor. Why should she be the main wife of the Marquis and let herself be a concubine?

And that Murong Yu, if she hadn't been a hindrance, the child in Aunt Ma's womb would have been gone long ago, and her situation would never be as embarrassing and embarrassing as it is today.

Stopping, Aunt Zhang stretched out her hand to pull a weeping willow, the cold wind shone in her eyes: that child must never be born!The slender fingers clenched suddenly, and the weeping willow in his hand broke in two.

A little maid hurriedly came to report: "Aunt Zhang, Zhang Yushi and Mrs. Yushi are here, and they are waiting in Orchid Garden."

"Really?" Aunt Zhang's eyes lit up: it was the right time for my parents to come, and I was planning to discuss this matter with them. With my father's help in secret, and my influence in the Hou's mansion, I didn't know it, I didn't know it. It is definitely not a problem to get rid of the child in Aunt Ma's womb and Murong Yu...

"Father, mother!" Stepping into Lan Yuan's small courtyard, Aunt Zhang hurried forward, shouting joyfully, Lan Yuan is her confidant, even if she violated the rules, no one would dare to report.

The maid stood at the door and quickly opened the curtain. Aunt Zhang was so immersed in joy that she didn't notice the strange look on the maid's face.

Zhang Yushi and Mrs. Yushi were sitting in the hall. Seeing Aunt Zhang coming, Mrs. Yushi smiled and got up: "Magnolia is here." The smile was a bit bitter.

"Mom!" Aunt Zhang was smiling, and walked forward quickly, stretching out her arms to help Mrs. Yushi. Suddenly, a white shadow flew towards her and hit her hard. With a sound of falling to the ground, she broke out in cold sweat, and Zhang Yushi roared like thunder: "Look at the good deeds you have done?"

"Master, don't scare Yulan." Mrs. Yushi felt sorry for her daughter, but because Zhang Yushi was here, she didn't dare to say anything more.

An exquisite booklet was lying quietly on the ground. Aunt Zhang bent over to pick it up suspiciously, opened it and read it, her eyes widened immediately: "This is..."

"It's a copy of the official memorial to impeach my daughter Wufang." Zhang Yushi was furious: "How did you manage the housekeeping in the Hou's mansion, and let outsiders know that you disregarded etiquette, Mr. Mean?"

"I'm not mean to you." Aunt Zhang got angry anxiously, she couldn't argue: I haven't met Lu Haowen a few times, so how could I be accused of being mean to him?

"No one will tell you the story is so vivid, it's like seeing it with your own eyes!" Aunt Zhang's rebuttal, Zhang Yushi obviously didn't believe it.

"There are many capable people in the court, and it is more difficult to be promoted to the next level than to ascend to the sky. Our Zhang family does not have a strong back and connections. I have always been cautious, just to be able to ascend to the position of the second-rank servant who is coveted by many people. You know For that position, I worked hard and endured for a long time, but because of your trivial matter, all my efforts were in vain..."

"How many times have I warned you that the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an ant's nest, and the critical period of promotion must not be the slightest mistake. Do you take my words as wind on your ears?" Zhang Yushi almost yelled out the last sentence, It can be seen that he was extremely angry: "The emperor values ​​etiquette the most, and respects talented people the most, but you are mean to Mr. at this critical moment, and everyone knows it. You are deliberately trying to harm me, right?"

"Father, don't worry, someone must have deliberately framed it. The only plan now is to quickly find out the truth and report it to the emperor..." Aunt Zhang also expects Zhang Yushi to be promoted. She has a strong natal family, so she can suppress Aunt Ma. one head.
