Going back to the upper room of Tsinghua University, as soon as they entered the door, Cuixi Cuisi called for someone to prepare hot water to wait for the master and grandma to take a bath and change clothes, but Cui Lian stood there and looked around the room, immediately sank down, turned around and left After going out, Mei Niang sat at the table and watched her back without making a sound, only motioning to Cuixi to bring tea.

Mama Wang said that Grandma was tired, so she asked Nanny and Xia Lian to take Brother Heng to wash and change clothes, and put him to bed. After washing, she also went to bed and lay down to rest. There were three maids serving her in the upper room, so she was very relieved.

After the last leg pain attack, Mei Niang always advised her to do less work and rest more, not to mention that she should not be on duty at night. In addition to asking Cheng'er and Ping'er to accompany her every day, she also assigned servants and women to take care of her. Mama Cai in the kitchen arranged for someone to cook food for her, and treated her nanny like a wife. Mama Wang said that she couldn't bear it, but in her heart she felt sweet and very useful, comforting and joyful.She is sophisticated in the world, she has long seen Master Hou's feelings for Meiniang, but Meiniang refuses to welcome, and all she wants is to run out of Hou's mansion, making the old lady very anxious.She doesn't have the concept of Mrs. Qin's dedication, but she, like Mrs. Qin, believes that there is no one else who can give Meiniang happiness except Master Hou!Only Ms. Wang knows what a good boy Hou Ye is. He endured the pain and tried his best to bear it for her when Meiniang did such an unnatural thing. He loves him and lives with him peacefully.What's more, Lord Hou also recognized the eldest son and maintained the position of Mei Niang's first wife, isn't that enough?What else does she want?

While worrying about Mei Niang's ignorance, Wang Mama carefully avoids the Hou Ye on purpose. As long as the Hou Ye is in the room, she will disappear. She knows too much, and she is not sure whether the Hou Ye wants to see her. Master Fang suddenly remembered that the past was unpleasant, and she felt that there was no need for her to appear in front of him.

After Meiniang and Xu Junying bathed and changed their clothes, Xu Junying went back to the study to read the official documents. Meiniang called Cuisi and asked about Heng'er's situation. Dismissing the idea of ​​carrying him back, when she was about to go inside to rest, Cui Lian came and reported something to her, Mei Niang lowered her eyes, yawned and said:
"I've noticed—forget it, there's no need to pursue it, and there's no need to blame anyone. We don't live in this yard for a long time, and we have to pay it back!"

Cuixi came out from the inside and said that the bed had been made, and all the quilts and sheets had been replaced with new quilts and sheets. Heng'er is not by my side, you can sleep more deeply!"

Cui Lian glanced at Cui Xi, hesitated to speak, and only respectfully responded: "Yes!"

Mei Niang stared at her with bright eyes: "Just say what you want, you know I don't like to cover up!"

Cui Lian lowered her head: "Grandma Hui: Cui Si was not on duty last night!"

Mei Niang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Cui Si: "Didn't I tell you? I was too tired, I must have slept deeply, what should I do if Heng'er fell out of bed before you were near me last night? I didn't see Heng'er when I got up early, did he really fall out of bed?"

Cuisi turned her head to look at the small study room with the curtain, and said softly, "Back to grandma: Master Hou taught me to go out. He said he wanted to read official documents on the couch, and listen to Brother Heng by the way..."

Mei Niang's eyeballs were fixed: "He? He came to take care of Heng'er?"

That is to say, Xu Junying has been to her bed every night!

She didn't know what happened last night, she slept really well, but for a while she felt that someone was pulling her hair, and soft little paw-like hands were touching her body, and she knew in her heart that it was Heng Er, half asleep and half awake, it seemed that someone came to stop Heng Er and took him away. She remembered that she had arranged for Trisi to guard the outside room. Did Trisi come?She was relieved and continued to sleep deeply...

Cui Xi said: "Master Hou must have played with Brother Heng for a long time last night, the soft couch was full of small objects thrown by Heng'er, and Cui Lian and I cleaned it up for a long time this morning!"

Mei Niang didn't ask any more questions, she pursed her lips, and waved her hands: "Cui Lian is sleeping on the couch, Cui Xi Cui Si, go down, I'm going to rest!"

Before I got into the quilt and lay down and fell asleep, I was still thinking, what is Xu Junying going to do?Using Heng'er to get close to her bed, do you want to create chaos, take the opportunity to climb up, and create some kind of fact, after which she has to obey him?
Let's dream, which world is my sister from?Could it be that the word chastity cannot be erased?joke!
She really wanted to get up and run to sneer and ask Xu Junying why she came to her bed in the middle of the night, but she couldn't move her body heavily, and couldn't open her eyes, her consciousness gradually became confused until she fell asleep.

Xu Junying read all the official documents in the study, it was already the third watch, Baoju knocked on the door outside, and asked, "Do you want some hot tea?"

Xu Junying said, "Come in!"

Baoju came in with a pot of tea, Xu Junying asked, "What happened to the matter I asked you to ask just now?"

Baoju replied: "I asked everything clearly: it was the family of Zeng Fugui, the servant in our courtyard, who leaked the news. The girls who were close to me, big and small, and Ms. Wang were all taken out of the mansion. After leaving for a while, Miss Zhuang came with someone, accompanied by the second grandmother. I didn't want to open the door, but Jin Suo in front of Ms. Zhuang had a sharp mouth and scolded the old woman, saying that after a few days the new grandma will come in, you just want to stay here, it's too annoying! The women can't help her calling the new grandma. Pressing his head on the person, he opened the door. Miss Zhuang and Second Mistress entered the upper room, but they only measured around and did not move anything inside. The women heard from Jin Suo that all the furniture in the room would be All the furnishings need to be replaced with new ones, and Ms. Zhuang is buying them, so she needs to measure the size... By the way, the study has been rearranged, and Master’s bed has been replaced with new bedding and sheets, which Ms. Zhuang did herself!"

Xu Junying raised her eyebrows and looked around: "It's her? I thought it was Cuisi and the others - I know about this, go down and rest, and tell them: Zeng Fugui's family has servants like this, come back After passing Ms. Wang, clear them all out. There are also those two by the lotus pond. It is inconvenient for the eldest grandma to come out to take care of them. You can go to the two aunts and ask them. For the deed of selling their lives, each person will be given a Zhuangzi and a sum of money, let them go!"

Bao Ju nodded: "I'll do it tomorrow!"

Xu Junying watched Baoju close the door and go out, got up and came to the upper room, Cui Lian was lying on the couch with her clothes on, sleeping very lightly, she woke up as soon as Xu Junying walked in, sat up suddenly, almost threw Xu Junying Startled, Cui Lian said, "Do you want tea, Master Hou?"

Xu Junying turned on the lamp on the table and waved his hands: "No, if you don't sleep well here, go back to your room and rest!"

While talking and walking to the inner room, Cui Lian bit her lips and thought for a while, then decided not to listen to him, fell down with her body, covered her head with a quilt and pretended to be asleep.

Xu Junying came out from the inner room, went to push back Mei Niang's gauze tent, saw that she was sleeping soundly, then tucked the corner of the quilt for her, stood by the bed for a while, turned around and came out, ignoring the clothes on the couch Cui Lian went to the cupboard by himself, and asked him to find two quilts, carried them into the study room and threw them on Zhuang Yulan's newly made bed during the day, with one under the other and the other under the cover. For those who have not slept for two consecutive nights, close the quilts. eyes, and soon lost consciousness.

When she woke up the next day, Meiniang lived a familiar but somewhat different life again. She hurriedly washed, dressed and ate breakfast. Heng'er was already beside her, and her childish voice echoed in the yard, like the sound of heaven, Meiniang He couldn't stop laughing, and couldn't help but went to play with him for a while, and then left reluctantly. According to Cuixi's arrangement, he first went to Qiuhuayuan to visit Mrs. Zheng, then Jinhuatang, and then went to the Purple Cloud Hall.

She is still the grandma of the Xu Mansion, and she must follow the rules of the Hou Mansion when she lives in the Hou Mansion.

Mei Niang did not expect Mrs. Zheng to love Zheng Meiyu so much. Upon hearing the news of her death, Mrs. Zheng suffered an emergency, similar to a severe stroke-twitching hands and feet, half of her body lost consciousness, and the corners of her mouth were crooked. Unable to understand a sentence, Mei Niang stood in front of Mrs. Zheng's bed, almost not recognizing her, and sighed inwardly: As for it?Such a vicious niece turned out to be an angel in her mind, if she was told what Zheng Meiyu had done, wouldn't she be pissed off right away?

In the morning, Bai Jingyu was busy with the affairs of the waiting mansion. Xu Xiaorong, the eldest concubine, stayed up late last night. This morning, the fourth grandma, Gan Shi, was waiting in front of the bed to serve the decoction. Mother He and Chunyue stayed close to each other morning and night, watching over the master. After Mei Niang arrived, she first saluted Mrs. Zheng, explaining the reason why she couldn't guard and wait on the eldest wife's sick bed for a few days, and told her that Heng'er was fine and that the wife didn't need to worry about it. Mrs. Zheng murmured , Eyes blinking non-stop, Mei Niang asked Mother He what this meant, Mother He wiped her tears and said:

"Madam misses Brother Heng, wants to see Brother Heng!"

Mei Niang nodded, and said to Mrs. Zheng: "Madam, please be patient. Heng'er followed me back to her parents' house yesterday and was exhausted all day. Let him rest today, and I will bring him over tomorrow to greet grandma!"

Mrs. Zheng fell silent, closed her eyes, and did not move.

Mei Niang sighed, gave a slight salute, turned and walked out of the bedroom that made her feel very depressed.

After getting out of the room, he walked a few steps, and heard the sound of the door curtain behind him, and Mother He's voice choked and shouted:

"Grandma!"

As soon as Mei Niang turned her head, she saw He's mother leading Chunyue and knelt on the ground. Her mother's face was full of tears, and she couldn't cry: "Grandma, please have pity on the old lady! It seems that the eldest lady has taken care of the uncle since childhood, and now she really loves Heng. For brother's sake, grandma shouldn't care about the harshness of the wife in the past - the way the wife treats grandma is for the sake of grandma and brother Heng! Wife said that grandma is weak, if she doesn't suppress her temper I'm afraid it's hard to become a talent... In the mansion, there are many people who are more talented and capable than the eldest grandma, but the eldest wife only wants the eldest grandma to pick up the pick in her hand, because the eldest grandma is the eldest daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law of the first wife , is brother Heng's mother!"

Mei Niang looked at the curtain that was hanging down, motioned Cuixi to help Mama He and Chunyue up, and frowned, "Why do you talk like that? The eldest lady is the mistress of the Hou Mansion, she used to be in charge of the entire Hou Mansion, she has a son and a daughter-in-law Daughter, grandchildren, who should be pitiful? I know how my wife treats me. As a daughter-in-law, I can only be grateful for my mother-in-law’s teachings. Brothers, sisters, sisters-in-law have heard the birth order, they are all the children of the master and wife, who is not filial? If my mother blamed me for not coming to attend the sick bed, I just made it clear-the emperor's life is in my body, and I will enter the palace with the master to be the queen Recite Buddhist scriptures and pray for blessings. Yesterday my natal sister-in-law gave birth to twins. I have to go home and help with some affairs. When I come back to the mansion, I will naturally take care of my wife. I will do my duty as a daughter-in-law. Mom talk too much!"
