Scheme of the Official Descendant

Ren Yaoqi found a gap and called Ren Yaohua aside to whisper.

"Send someone to stare at the East Mansion, and report any movement immediately."

The two were still in the east room of the main room of the Ronghua Yuan, and the old lady Ren was listening to the maid Jin Lian in the Ming hall next door to the gift list brought by Mrs. Lin today, and personally explained what to expect in return, voice Passed through the hollow carved Xiangzhu curtain.

Originally, Ren Yaoyin was also holding a small embroidered basket to embroider the shoe uppers in the east room. He just got up and went to the small warm pavilion where he lived to find silk thread.

Ren Yaoqi's voice was very small, almost speaking to Ren Yaohua's ears. Hearing this, Ren Yaohua glanced vigilantly at Xiangzhu Lianzi. Although he was not very used to it, he approached her in order to be afraid that people would hear Ren Yaoqi's appearance, biting her ears: "What's the matter in the East Mansion? What can happen? "

Ren Yaoqi was about to speak, and within a short while, there was the sound of light footsteps, as if Ren Yaoyin had come out of the warm pavilion, and the two sisters sat quietly.

Sure enough, Ren Yaoyin turned out from Dong Shao, still holding a lock of gold thread in his hand.

The old lady confessed that the sisters were staying in the main room. At noon, she would leave Mrs. Lin to eat at the Ronghua Yard, and let the sisters also accompany them.

It is not convenient to speak at this moment, Ren Yaohua lowered his head and thought, put down the tea cup in his hand, and slowly got up to the big maid Turnip who was waiting on the side, and said, "Go and change clothes."

Ren Yaoyin came over, smiled gently at Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua, and then sat back on the kang busy embroidering on his own, without noticing anything unusual.

Ren Yaohua took the maid out.

Ren Yaoqi still sat on the spot drinking tea, sometimes even leaning over to ask about Ren Yaoyin's needle technique, Ren Yaoyin patiently returned her one by one, and sometimes stopped to take out the rags in the embroidery basket. Show her the complicated needle movement.

Regarding the sisters' enquiries, no matter what it is, as long as Ren Yaoyin knows it, she has always answered you seriously, not perfunctory, and not private. It is undeniable that among the several sisters of the Ren family, Ren Yaoyin is the one who knows the best.

Not long after, Ren Yaohua returned. Ren Yaoqi looked up at her, and Ren Yaohua nodded without a trace.

Although he didn't ask what Ren Yaoqi was going to do, Ren Yaohua went out and arranged for someone to stare at the East Mansion.

When it was almost time for lunch, the old lady Ren sent someone to the Liuli courtyard to invite Mrs. Lin to come.

The eldest wife did not come, it was the youngest grandmother Zhao who came with Lin Da, and the eldest wife went to stare at the kitchen in person. The sisters went out of the Dongci room, and then the youngest grandmother Zhao cried out Ren Yaoyin again to explain her something.

It happened that Ren Yaohua's maid Xiangqin came in right now and stood silently beside the master.

Seeing that Mrs. Ren and Mrs. Lin Da were talking on the sidelines, and had no time to take care of them, Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoqi still returned to the East Chamber.

Seeing that there were no outsiders staring, Xiangqin immediately said quickly and quietly: "Miss, there are some women from the East Mansion who came here today to drop in, and one has been chatting at the concierge. Besides, There is nothing else."

The East Mansion and the West Mansion are originally one family, and many of the servants on both sides are relatives, so it is normal to have contacts. Although the old lady in the East Mansion didn't like the communication between the two sides, the second wife Su was not too strict with these.

Ren Yaoqi nodded, and explained: "Those people just stare at a distance temporarily, don't let people find out."

Both Ren Yaoqi and Xiangqin spoke very quietly. Ren Yaohua also deliberately lowered his voice and said, "What will happen in the East Mansion?"

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while: "I hope she can move, otherwise I will have to spend some time planning."

Ren Yaoqi wanted to pull Dong Mansion into the water. Based on her understanding of Su Clan, Su Clan's aunt should be suspicious.

The last time Ren Yaoting used Ren Yaoting to pull the Su family down, Ren Yaoqi deliberately didn't pick himself up too dry. With Su's shrewdness, he would definitely associate Ren Yaoting's abnormality with the contact between the two of them.

Ren Yaoqi was not afraid of Su's thinking too much, just because she didn't think too much.

However, she is not sure whether Su Clan will drip this muddy water, she is not a **** after all.

"Miss Fifth, what do I do next? Or just stare at it?" Parsley seemed to understand.

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while and exhorted: "Just stare at first. If there is any contact between the people in the East Mansion and Mrs. Lin, you can find a way to let others bump into it. Anyone can do it, but your own people will pick it up first. It's clean."

Parsley nodded quickly: "The servant girl knows, the servant girl will explain to the two women."

Ren Yaoqi whispered a few more words, then sent her down.

Ren Yaohua didn't quite understand Ren Yaoqi's arrangement, but this was not the time to speak, so she didn't ask more.

After that, Mrs. Zhao brought Ren Yaoyin over to ask the old lady Ren if she could set the table. After receiving the order of the old lady, Zhao led Ren Yaoyin to direct the maids to set the table.

Presumably, Zhao's calling Ren Yaoyin away was also teaching her some housework. Ren Yaoyin and Ren Yaohua are not too far apart in age, and when it comes time to talk about their relationship, the big wife usually has too many things to deal with. Therefore, Zhao's auntie's sister-in-law taught her more. Therefore, Ren Yaoyin and Zhao have a very good relationship.

Because Zhao and Ren Yaoyin were with Ren Yaoqi, Ren Yaohua was a peer. The two of them were busy, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua sisters were not easy to look at, so they went out to help, although there were not many times when they really needed their own hands.

The Zhao family is simple and honest, although it is inevitable that there will be close relatives, but seeing Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua here, they are willing to teach them.

The Ren's family was very cautious in serving Mrs. Lin Da. They set out eight cold dishes, sixteen hot dishes, and eight congee and dim sum.

Mrs. Lin has nothing strange on her face, although everyone is very particular about food and sleeplessness, a meal is a delight for the host and the host.

After eating, he sat for a while and drank tea. Mrs. Lin Da said goodbye. After coming out of Liuliyuan, Mrs. Lin did not mention her daughter and granddaughter to Mrs. Ren anymore, she seemed to be relieved to hand them over to Mrs. Ren.

Old Mrs. Ren stayed with Mrs. Lin a few times, and then got up to take her out in person, and explained that Mother Gui had asked the Ren family to move the gift that the Lin family had prepared to the Lin family to the Lin family's carriage.

The two old ladies who walked in the front held hands with each other, and were courteous, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Mrs. Ren kept sending Mrs. Lin to the second door before turning back to Ronghua Yuan.

Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua did not follow Mrs. Ren back. Mrs. Ren had the habit of taking a nap, and the sisters went straight back to the Ziwei courtyard.

The third wife Li had a face-to-face meeting before letting old lady Ren send it back, and did not let her accompany the guests. Li was already used to it. Seeing the two sisters came back, he asked if they were full.

Although there are a lot of banquet dishes to serve guests, it is common to not have enough.

Ren Yaoqi is not hungry. She eats when she should eat and drinks when she should drink. She ordered a lot of dishes with her fingers, and the appetite was the same as usual. After eating a lot, the etiquette was good, so no one said anything about her.

Soon afterwards, Parsley also came back. Ren Yaohua gave a good look, and the two took the maid to the Dongji room where they talked and drank tea on weekdays.

Parsley was also unambiguous, and said directly: "When Mrs. Lin was in the mansion, the people from the East Mansion did not get in. But when the Lin family's carriage drove out of the mansion, the man who was chatting in the concierge The lady from the house also took the opportunity to leave the house. The lady we sent out to mark people was also clever, and immediately thought of instructing the two concierges to go out to run errands, while the other lady quietly went out through the side door. After a glance, she happened to see that the woman was allowed to get into Mrs. Lin's carriage at the entrance of the alley."

Hearing this, Ren Yaoqi was relieved and said to Xiangqian: "Very well, each person will give a reward of one or two silver."

Parsley rolled her eyes and joked: "That's a few taels of silver! Go from the fifth lady's account, or from our third lady's account?"

Ren Yaoqi glanced at Ren Yaohua, and the old **** said: "Naturally, whoever sends it is responsible for giving the money."

The parsley choked.

Ren Yaohua squinted at Ren Yaoqi and snorted, but didn't say much.

Parsley stuck his tongue out.

"What's your idea?" Ren Yaohua finally took the opportunity to ask questions.

Ren Yaoqi stopped joking, and spoke a few words to Ren Yaohua in a soft voice.

Ren Yaohua couldn't help but frowned slightly when she heard this: "Can Second Auntie have a way to bring Auntie Kang down?"

Ren Yaoqi stretched out a finger and shook: "The second aunt is not trying to bring down Auntie Kang, she just wants to give Auntie Fang a warning. Who loses or loses Auntie Kang and Aunt 5, and what does it have to do with her? This Auntie Kang is a scheming actor, right? But no one in the Ren family took her to heart."

Ren Yaohua thought for a while: "Is it because of Wushu's attitude towards her?"

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Then what do you think of the attitude of the father and the aunt?"

Ren Yaohua was startled.

Their father, Ren San, did not care much about the other aunt, and spent the night in Fang's courtyard within a few days. But everyone in the Ren family knew that Aunt Fang was not a simple character, and no one in the Ren family dared to look down upon her.

"This is the Ren family. How your position in the Ren family depends on the family behind you." Ren Yaoqi's voice was extremely weak. "Auntie Kang's background is destined to be a gift that can be discarded at any time. That’s it."

"It's no wonder that Mrs. Lin was relieved a lot after seeing Aunt Kang." Ren Yaohua had a sense of it.

"Mrs. Lin Da is a smart person, so she didn't take Kang's affairs at heart, but was more worried about whether her daughter and granddaughter would suffer. The only effect of Kang's appearance was to hit the fifth wife."

Father, like son. Only the fifth wife would be confused because of Auntie Kang.

"So you never let me intervene in the Fifth Room..." Ren Yaohua said in inferences, "Because you know that Aunt Kang can't make a big storm. Even if the fifth wife and Ren Yaoyu are out of favor, the real reason is also Could it be Aunt Kang?"

Ren Yaoqi heard this and did not deny it.

"Second aunt knows this too, so she just intervened in a painless warning to the next aunt, but didn't really intend to be an enemy of Aunt Fang?"

Although Ren Yaohua was impulsive, she was a smart person, so she gradually thought a long way.

"If this is the case, the intervention of the second aunt will not help us much. It is even possible that Aunt Fang will show her favor because of her scruples, and the two walked to the same place."

Aunt Fang has always been a smart person. She wouldn't do hard things. She didn't mind lowering her body for things that were beneficial to her.

Ren Yaoqi looked at Ren Yaohua with an appreciative smile: "It was so." She didn't expect Ren Yaohua to make progress so quickly.

Ren Yaohua couldn't help but frown, showing a somewhat incomprehensible color: "Originally?"

Ren Yaoqi nodded: "So what we have to do is to let the second aunt intervene deeper."

Ren Yaohua was taken aback: "Will the second aunt?"

The Su family is a shrewd person, so naturally he would not deliberately become enemies with the Fang family, but...

"Isn't there another Mrs. Lin?" Ren Yaoqi blinked at Ren Yaohua, showing a bit naughty.

"It's so easy for your second aunt to get out in time? Since she has intervened, don't want to be alone."

This is Ren Yaoqi's calculation.

The dispute between Auntie Kang and the fifth wife was just a housework for Wufang, and had nothing to do with her. She didn't care about whoever took the limelight and who suffered. She just kept waiting for another chance, a chance to pull Su Clan into the water.

Because of the relationship between the Ren Shijia and his wife, the Lin family and the Ren family are still very difficult to say in the future, so the fifth wife Lin can only passively beat her auntie.

Therefore, Aunt Fang has too much leisure, and she needs a real opponent.

"But you also said that Mrs. Lin Da is a smart person. Is she going back to this muddy water?" Ren Yaohua said uncertainly.

Ren Yaoqi smiled: "Mrs. Lin Da is indeed a smart person, but she is also a mother. Aunt Kang is not a problem to her, but she knows what Aunt Kang's existence means to her daughter. If there is a chance, Mrs. Lin will not mind helping her daughter remove this eye-catching obstacle."

Ren Yaohua couldn't help being silent upon hearing this.

After a while, she couldn't help sighing, looking at Ren Yaoqi's expression a little complicated: "Your calculations are really accurate, and even people's hearts are taken into consideration."

Ren Yaohua's tone was rare to bring some admiration, but Ren Yaoqi did not feel happy or complacent when he heard it.

She knew in her heart that the reason she was able to calculate everything so clearly was because she did not consider these people as her family. Because of his previous life, it was difficult for Ren Yaoqi to have a good impression of the Ren family.

From the moment she and Ren Yaohua were sacrificed by them, she understood a lot of things.

After the Ren family’s bad luck, the Lin family, Qiu family, and Fang family, who had close contacts with the Ren family on weekdays, hid as far away as possible. Let alone help, they took advantage of the fire and robbed their partners. The business of the company has never happened.

After a few more days, Auntie Kang seemed to be much better, and she offered to go back to her small courtyard, and the old lady asked her to move back and assigned a few more maids to serve.

The fifth master, Ren Shimao, seemed to have really been with the fifth wife to think behind closed doors. Since entering the room, he has not shown up again. He eats and drinks and Lhasa is solved in the house, but every day he sends people to visit his daughter, or will The son called in to take the school homework exam.

The old lady Ren was a little dissatisfied with this, and sent several people to call Ren Shimao. However, Ren Shimao seemed to be determined, and he just refused to come out, but he did not act like a coquettish and go to the old lady Ren to intercede for his wife and daughter. On the contrary, he was very satisfied with the current situation.

The old lady took care of him a few times, but in the end there was nothing but let him go.

This morning, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua Ren Yaoyin were learning needle and thread with an old maid beside the old lady Ren in the Ronghua courtyard. A woman in the concierge reported that someone from outside the house was looking for Auntie Kang, and it was Auntie Kang's sister-in-law.

Mrs. Ren didn't care when she heard this. She thought it was Aunt Kang's mother who knew that she was visiting after her childbirth.

Since Aunt Kang’s miscarriage, the old lady Ren has arranged for someone to take care of her on weekdays, but Master Ren Wu ignores him, and her elder cares too much about a concubine, lest others think she deliberately provokes the husband and wife of his son and daughter-in-law. relationship.

So I heard that someone came to Auntie Kang, but only ordered the woman below to entertain her. After all, she was just a concubine, and those from her natal family were not considered serious relatives. It was a shame for her old man to ask such a question.

Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua sat opposite each other under the south window, and Ren Yaoyin was whispering to ask the old mother about the needle technique. After hearing the report, Ren Yaohua's eyelids jumped subconsciously and raised his eyes to take a look at Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaoqi was raising his small embroidery shed to look at the south window, frowning as if he was worrying about the color of the little lotus next to the water duck above, and did not pay attention to Ren Yaohua. Sight.

Ren Yaohua just took a look, then buried his head and continued the work in his hands as if nothing had happened.

Before long, someone came in to report.

This time, the person who came was not the concierge, but the old lady from the Ronghua Courtyard sent by the old lady.

Seeing that she ran back in a hurry, Mrs. Ren frowned and said, "Why are you back? Didn't you lead someone to see Aunt Kang?"

The woman hurriedly said: "The slave girl originally wanted to lead people to see Aunt Kang, but she didn't want Aunt Kang's sister-in-law to say... she asked to see you..."

Mrs. Ren was a little displeased upon hearing this: "No, I don't want to meet guests now." Mrs. Ren didn't plan to meet a concubine's relatives, she had sex.

The woman’s expression was a little uneasy. She looked up at the old lady Ren and hesitated, "Aunt Kang’s sister-in-law did not come alone. She... brought a family named Liu and said that something asked to see you. ."

Just for a while, another woman who was guarding the gate entered the yard. Ren Yaoqi sat under the south window and heard someone say outside: "Help me go in and report it. There is a commotion outside."

The old lady Ren pointed her ears, and when she heard something outside, she shouted: "Who is outside? Come in and talk back and forth!"

The visitor was a wife who was guarding the second door. Hearing Mrs. Ren's words, he hurried in.

"What's the matter, it's noisy, and there are no rules." The old lady sat on her head, not angry.

The old woman wiped the cold sweat from her forehead: "The old lady forgive me, but the few people outside insisted on coming to see you, because the slaves and maids didn't dare to bring people over without your order, but they refused to listen to persuasion. I can't stop it."

"What?" The old lady was taken aback when she heard the words.

But the woman who came in earlier was also a little surprised: "Isn't it good before? Why did it suddenly cause trouble?"

It turns out that the few people brought by Sister-in-law Kang still didn't say a word when they were outside the house, but they didn't say a word. After entering the house, the woman just said that she would take them to Aunt Kang, but Sister-in-law Kang said she was coming to see the old lady.

Seeing something was wrong, the woman rushed to the Ronghuayuan to report it, not wanting her to leave soon afterwards.

Old lady Ren said with a cold face: "How many people?"

The wife of Ermen replied: "Including Kang's wife, three women and four men. Those men are inconvenient to enter the inner courtyard. They have already arranged to go to the outer courtyard to serve tea. Only three women entered Ermen. The older lady just rushed over after hearing about it."

I heard that the old lady had gone to deal with it, and the old lady Ren looked better.

"What is the origin of the Liu family who came with Sister Kang?" The old lady Ren was not a vegetarian either, and soon discovered something wrong.

The woman she sent out to receive said: "Sister-in-law Kang only said that she was a relative of Aunt Kang's mother."

The old lady Ren thought for a while and ordered: "Go and invite Sister Nakang over to talk, and all the other Liu family members will go to the outer courtyard for tea first."

The mother-in-law responded, and was about to go out, but was called to stop by the old lady again: "Find a more remote yard in the outer courtyard. Look for someone outside to watch it. Don't let them go."

The women all stepped back. The old lady Ren looked down and thought for a moment, and then saw Ren Yaoqi, the three sisters Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoyin were still sitting aside, and the old lady Ren hesitated for a while and said to them: "Grandma wants to see you. Guest, let's go to the inner room for the time being, and the rest of you will leave first."

Old Lady Ren didn't let a few granddaughters go out, but instead sent away all the people who were waiting, leaving only Madam Gui and a few big maids.

Ren Yaoqi retreated to the inner room with his two sisters.

During this period, Mrs. Ren's education of her granddaughters was obviously different from before. The granddaughters come to treat her in the morning, she will stay for dinner, and then let them all stay in Ronghuayuan in the morning. They usually find women who are excellent embroiders to teach them how to cut and embroider. They discuss things with the big wife on weekdays, and let them stay nearby and listen when handling housework. Most things will not avoid them. Sometimes they will be asked for their opinions, although they may not be adopted, but they are considered to be involved.

Today, the Kang family is obviously a bit weird. The old lady Ren only let the three sisters into the inner room, but did not send them away.

Not long after Ren Yaoqi sat down in the East Chamber, they heard someone from outside reporting that Konka's wife was coming.

After a faint sound, a young woman's voice rang out next door: "Little woman Kang pleases the old lady, the old lady Wanan." RS
