Chapter 7

Fourth Master Xie lowered his head, looked at the beautiful woman in front of him who was both happy and angry, and asked softly, "Child?" The young woman nodded eagerly, "Yes, Yulang, I want to give birth to a child for Yulang, and spread the branches and leaves for Xie's family."

The two people facing each other in the spring breeze, the man is as gentle as beautiful jade, and the woman is as delicate and beautiful as flowers, they are really a pair of lovers.Fourth Master Xie leaned over and kissed the young woman's pink cheek lightly, "Okay, Ah Zhao returns to the room and waits for me, I will accompany you tonight."

The fourth wife sneered a few times when she found out, she dared to ask for western fabrics for this purpose!It's shameless to seduce men in blatant and outlandish clothes.A few days ago, I wondered why she didn't ask fourth master for the clothes. Didn't fourth master always dote on her?It was originally to save trouble by following her, it was funny to think about it, how could it save trouble?Obviously troublesome.

No matter how virtuous and magnanimous the fourth wife is, it would be annoying, and the clay figurine is still a bit rustic, not to mention that the fourth wife is a daughter of the Han family in Runan, and the wife of the Xie family.The next morning, when Aunt Yuan and Aunt He came to pay their respects, the fourth wife was served with tea and water, "Do you want to scald me to death?"

Aunt Yuan was not stupid, so she naturally knew why the fourth wife was angry, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, apologizing sincerely and fearfully, not daring to defend herself.The first rank of the official rank is overwhelming, and the fourth wife is the main wife, so it is easy to deal with her concubine.

However, it was just a few words of scolding, a few words of reprimand, and punishment of kneeling and standing, nothing else.It's a joke to fine monthly money, and I don't live on monthly money; beating, that's impossible, Xie's mansion even treats the servants leniently, let alone my aunt.

If I really blame my aunt, the fourth wife's good reputation of being virtuous, generous and tolerant will be over.Even the parents-in-law and husband don't like it, so why bother.Everyone in the Xie family has a generous disposition, and Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie are even more bodhisattva-hearted.

Aunt Yuan is both beautiful and smart, otherwise she would not be selected by Mrs. Xie and Fourth Master Xie.She dared to seduce Fourth Master Xie in the garden, one was because she was eager to seek a son, and the other was because she was calculating, she would not have any serious problems, at most she would be punished once by the fourth wife.

What's the matter, the fourth wife didn't dare to punish him too severely because of the face of the fourth master.It is worthwhile to suffer some flesh and blood, exchange for a lively and lovely child, exchange for the laughter and laughter in the courtyard of Dongkua courtyard, and drive away the loneliness day after day.

Aunt Yuan's prediction was right, the Fourth Wife indeed reprimanded her a few words, and punished her to kneel in the courtyard and meditate.Aunt Yuan knelt in the yard for an hour before she was let go.

When the spring was cold, Aunt Yuan blew a cold wind in the yard and fell ill.The girl Xiaoliu was timid, she cried and went to find Fourth Master Xie, and hurriedly invited the doctor to see the doctor and get medicine, it was a whole lot of trouble.

Fourth Master Xie had cold eyes. Although he was in the main room, he didn't look at Mrs. Fourth or talk to her.The Fourth Wife felt a little regretful, but she was punished to kneel down and vent her anger. Why is Aunt Yuan ill and she is too delicate.

Aunt Yuan also regretted it.If she had known that she would catch a cold, get sick, and feel so uncomfortable, she would not have made such a move.It was even colder last month, Ah Li knelt on her knees for over an hour, why is she fine?
Yulang loves cleanliness the most, and dislikes patients the most. With his illness, he is even less likely to see him.Aunt Yuan ordered Xiao Liu to take the mirror, and seeing a haggard woman in the mirror, she was discouraged first.

Aunt Yuan smiled wryly at Xiao Liu, "You must never be a concubine for others, no matter how poor or ugly you are, at least marry someone and be a decent husband and wife." If someone says the tea is too hot, they have the ability to make you seriously ill one game.

Xiaoliu cried, "Auntie, don't laugh like that, it's scary." After crying, Xiaoliu confessed to the little girl, "I'm waiting for you", and went to find her cousin Xiaoshu to complain, "My aunt is so pitiful, there is no one in bed for her illness I don’t care if anyone asks.” As she spoke, tears rolled down her cheeks like pearls off the thread, so pitiful.

Xiaoshu is the girl in Mrs. Xie's room. She is much more sensible than Xiaoliu. She advised her, "You should only serve Aunt Yuan carefully, and don't worry about other things, and you can't take care of them." Hire a doctor, and make medicine The medicine is gone, what does it mean that no one cares and no one asks.

Xiao Liu left crying.Cousin is so heartless, my aunt is really nobody cares and no one asks, fourth master always ignores the sick, all sick girls in the fourth room have to be moved out, and they are allowed to go back to the house when they are done.He only cares about hiring a doctor and giving the doctor a generous bounty, but the Fourth Wife doesn't even care about hiring a doctor!

Xiaoshu thought about it, it was related to the fourth master, the old lady's heart, and Xiaoliu cried like this again, so she couldn't hide it from anyone.I took a moment to pick and choose and went back to the old lady, "...these are trivial matters, so I shouldn't go back to the old lady..."

The old lady Xie nodded slightly, but did not speak.She never cared about the affairs of her son's room, but she was just a concubine, not to mention punished, even beaten, it was inconvenient for her as a mother-in-law to care.

However, knowing that she is Yulang's beloved, why should the fourth wife be so merciless?Didn't it obviously make Yulang feel unhappy? Mrs. Xie was very dissatisfied.

When discussing marriage for Yulang at the beginning, she chose a girl from the Han family in Runan after thousands of choices, in order to be "virtuous, magnanimous, and able to care for her husband and teach her children".Now it seems that it is nothing more than that.Xie old lady basked in her heart.

The eldest girl, Huaiying, was clever, and without waiting for the old lady's orders, she ordered someone to inquire about the details.When there was no one around, I returned to the old lady, "Aunt Yuan is down, but why Auntie was punished to kneel for a trivial matter, it happened last month. After kneeling for more than an hour, Miss Qi was so hungry. cry."

The old lady Xie changed her face. "A concubine serving my aunt, it doesn't matter if she is the housewife, beating or scolding her. This aunt who gave birth to a child and raised a child can't be abused by others!" The aunt is worthless, but the Xie family's children It's baby.

Huaiying pursed her lips and smiled, "Aunt He is also honest, she just endured the loss and didn't say a word. With her temperament, I'm afraid that Miss Seven will also suffer."

Old Madam Xie closed her eyes for a while, then opened her eyes after a while, and said: "Please come, Madam Tong." Madam Tong is Fourth Master Xie's nanny, an old man in the house.I have been raising it at home for a long time, and I haven't been on a job for a long time.

In the afternoon of the same day, a middle-aged woman with a fair face, beautiful and gentle, visited Mrs. Xie and was ordered to "take care of Miss Seven". "Don't worry." The middle-aged woman said respectfully, "How I took care of Fourth Master back then, now I will take care of Seventh Miss."

The old lady Xie nodded with a smile.Originally, it would be best to hold Xiao Qi by his side to raise him, but Xiao Qi is stubborn and can't leave his mother.I have no choice but to put an old nanny in the Xikua courtyard to be at ease.

Nanny Tong is Yulang's nanny, Yulang always calls "Mom" when he sees her, who in the fourth room dares to disrespect her?With her here, we Xiaoqi won't cry from hunger, right?
Mrs. Xie had just solved a troublesome thing, and even more troublesome things came: the second wife brought her two sons and a daughter, and the third wife brought her two daughters and a son back to Xie's mansion one after the other.

If the fourth wife is a sister-in-law, she will naturally go to the second gate to greet her.The second wife is okay, she is wearing a dark green brocade beige on her upper body, and a long skirt of cloud silk and plain folds.She was well dressed, and her speech and behavior were gentle. Behind her, the third young master Qi Nian, the fourth young master Yang Nian, and the third young lady Hua Nian were also polite and likable.

When I met Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie, I paid my respects according to the etiquette and rules, and shed a few tears.Mrs. Xie was very happy to see his grandchildren, asked about their homework and parenting, and looked at Hua Nian's beard and said with a smile: "Hua'er has grown up, and his success is getting better and better."

The 13-year-old Xie Huanian is in the age of cardamom. She wears an apple green brocade trousers on her upper body, and embroiders bright yellow flowers on her chest. She is delicate and bright, very beautiful.Hua Nian thanked her generously and quietly stood beside the second wife.

How would Mrs. Xie treat her daughter-in-law and her grandchildren? These people have no blood relationship with her at all.After saying a few words of face, I rewarded Qi Nian, Yang Nian's pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Hua Nian's pearl face.

The brushes, ink, paper and inkstones, as well as the pearl noodles are all top-notch, Mr. Xie nodded in satisfaction.Although my old wife is a bit willful from time to time, she is never stingy and has always been very generous in her actions.

The second wife's family came from afar to work hard, and after visiting the old man and the old lady, the fourth wife took them back to rest.The second wife saw that the house was clean, luxuriously furnished, and everything was in order, even the decorations in the Duobao Pavilion were top-notch, so she thanked the fourth wife again and again, "Thank you, brother and sister."

The fourth wife said with a smile: "I'm just following the old lady's orders, and I can't be thanked by the second sister-in-law." After a long time of modesty and courtesy, the fourth wife left. Before leaving, she asked her three nephews and nieces, What's short, just come and talk to your aunt." Qi Nian, Yang Nian, and Hua Nian agreed with a smile, and sent the fourth wife out.

The second room is still easy.The Fourth Wife breathed a sigh of relief.

The third wife is very different.She came back one day late, and when she came back, there were six carriages, mighty and powerful.The dress is also different. The upper body is wearing a bright yellow Shu brocade beige, full of embroidered red peonies, fourteen floor-length skirts, and a luxurious Lingyun bun. The golden step shakes, glittering and translucent, dazzling the eyes and ears.

As soon as they met, the third wife held the fourth wife's hand and repeatedly exclaimed, "The fourth sibling is still so young and beautiful! They are not old at all!" A series of compliments erupted, and the fourth wife could only smile.

Fortunately, the second young lady, Qinian, is steady, the fourth young lady, Fengnian, who was a concubine, was shy, and the seventh young lady, who was still young, fell asleep from exhaustion.So these three children are not noisy.

When the third wife visited Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie, it was very lively. She fell to the ground and cried loudly, "You can't serve your parents-in-law, your daughter-in-law is not filial."

Thank you old lady for apologizing and looking at my old wife.She has a pure personality, and she can't see these hypocrisy the most, alas, it's hard for her.
