"Palm mouth!" An Hongshao's eyes changed slightly, and he put away the smile on his face, his expression was serious and cold. The voice was undeniably domineering.
Dongqing hesitated for a moment, but then remembered what Aunt Zhao had told her, no matter who she met or what happened in the Lian family, she would stand by An Hongshao's side regardless of the consequences.
Anyone who touched the second aunt might make her father dissatisfied, but she couldn't think about it that much.
Snapped!
The clear and loud sound hit the maid behind the second aunt in the face.
"You are so presumptuous!" The second aunt was shocked. Not to mention An Hongshao, not even her mother had ever been so embarrassed by her!
Snapped!
As soon as the second aunt's voice fell, the maid received another slap.
"Everyone knows that when you beat a dog, it depends on the owner!" Er Yi Niang stood in front of the maid, as if she had a sense of righteousness that if she wanted to beat her, she would beat herself first.
The second aunt has never dared to play the role of an elder in front of several juniors, but she is her father's wife after all, and now she is being bullied by the bride. Is her face being stepped on on the ground?
Seeing that the second aunt reacted and wanted to protect the maid, An Hongshao waved to Dongqing to come back. Naturally, it was impossible for her to start a fight with the second aunt. At this moment, she just glanced at the second aunt lightly and said, "Mother has always respected the rules. My aunt's outrageous remarks were probably instigated by the maid. Such people must be a disaster if they stay here. I It’s also for my aunt’s benefit.”
"What does it have to do with you? I will definitely report what happened today to my father." Lian Yanyu and An Hongshao looked at each other angrily.
An Hongshao chuckled lightly. She was no longer afraid of such a shrew like An Hongye. Lian Yanyu was our girl after all, so it was impossible for her to act recklessly. Seeing her eyes full of tears and accusing her, it was really unsettling at all. Fear.
"Father said that mother has the final say in matters in the inner house. If Third Sister feels that I have said something wrong, I am willing to go to Mother with Third Sister to talk things over." After saying that, he turned back and glanced at Lian Mu's house, " It's just a pity that father won't let us in now, so we have to trouble Third Sister to wait here with me."
"Who wants to wait with you?" Lian Yanyu snorted angrily, pulling her second aunt and striding out.
An Hongshao rolled her eyes at their backs, saying that they bullied the weak and feared the strong.
"Brothers and sisters are really powerful." Seeing that everyone had left, Mrs. Zhou walked up to An Hongshao, "It's just that Second Aunt is used to pretending to be pitiful. It's really not worth it to have such a quarrel with Second Aunt."
After Mrs. Zhou finished speaking, An Hongshao was stunned for a moment, then put on a smile and said, "I just finished talking in a hurry. Second Aunt should never mention my mother."
Concerning this matter, Mrs. Zhou nodded, "That's true. Even if we get in front of my father-in-law, it's the second aunt's fault."
No matter what Li's background was, she was now an in-law of the Lian family and a serious relative of the Lian family. It was not the turn of an aunt to make irresponsible remarks.
Don't say that this slap was slapped on the face of the second aunt's maid. Even if it was slapped on the face of the second aunt, An Hongshao would at most be reprimanded and not punished.
After saying a few words, Zhou left.
An Hongshao was not in a hurry to leave. He stood at the door of Lian Mu's yard and looked up at the sky.
After waiting for a long time, Lian's father came out of Lian's mother's room. It looked like they were having an argument. Lian's father looked unhappy and said, "Father." An Hongshao bowed in greeting.
"Why are you here?" Lian's father frowned naturally when he saw An Hongshao hadn't left yet.
"Replying to my father, it seems that the Chinese New Year is about to come, and I am not sure what to buy at home, so I want my mother to give me an idea." As he said this, An Hongshao sneezed and looked like he was freezing.
Lian's father wanted to reprimand him, but he swallowed it back.
He actually felt that if something really happened, why were you just watching the second aunt's excitement? Just such an interruption brought Lian's father back to his senses. After all, he didn't hear anything they said.
What if there are too many things to be sure of? He was kicked out as soon as he came up, causing his daughter-in-law who had just walked in to freeze at the door.
Father Lian cleared his throat unnaturally, "Go in."
"Farewell, father." An Hongshao was very polite and couldn't fault anything in his etiquette.
Lian's father hummed, turned and left.
He originally wanted to go see his second aunt, but after taking a few steps, he suddenly reacted inappropriately. In this clear day, he, an old father-in-law, went to his aunt's courtyard in front of his daughter-in-law, and he didn't even have any shame?
Pretending that something was wrong, he turned a corner and went to the front yard.
An Hongshao watched Lian's father leave and said, "Let's go." She led Dongqing back to her yard.
Li had taught herself everything she wanted to buy during the Chinese New Year at home. She only had to follow the example of An Jia. As for the big items, the public school will prepare them, so she doesn't have to worry too much.
However, An Hongshao couldn't bear to see Lian's mother being plotted against. Originally, she was just starting out, so there was no need to make a fuss about this matter, and everyone might be disgusted by the trouble. But An Hongshao always felt that he should do something for Lian Ruzhi.
Lian's family seems stable on the surface, but if there are any conflicts, Lian's mother uses her own money to resolve them.
Of course, An Hongshao didn't mean to be greedy for Lianmu's money, but he just felt that you couldn't pluck it from one person. To put it nicely, it’s because Lian’s mother is generous, but to say it’s ugly, it’s because Lian’s mother has always been taken advantage of.
Even to protect herself as expected, An Hongshao could have done nothing. She would just stay in her own yard and no one would dare to bully her. However, she wanted to accompany Lian Ruzhi and accompany him to pick up the chicken feathers that fell on the ground.
Maybe it was because it had been freezing outside for a long time. When An Hongshao was sitting by the stove, he felt that his hands started to itch again. There is a doctor in Lian's family, so if anything happens, just ask someone to tell him.
An Hongshao originally thought about asking Dongqing to ask the doctor for a jar of chilblain ointment, but then she thought about it and decided against it.
She didn't want people to know how miserable she had been.
She doesn't want people to pity her, nor does she want people to pity Lian Ruzhi.
An Hongshao took his hand back and did not dare to sit by the fire. He found a soft couch not far away and lay down, putting his hand in the blanket to let it slowly warm up.
She didn't know if Lian Ruzhi was cold in the palace, but An Hongshao would definitely wrap her cold hands with his palms if he were in front of her.
His palms were warm, melting away the coldness left by the winter a little bit.
When it was time to light the lamp, Zhou sent someone to deliver another box of rouge. She said that she was going out this afternoon and happened to see this box of rouge in the shop that was selling like hotcakes. Maybe it had just come out. Would it be suitable for An Hongshao to try it?
Dongqing took the rouge in a polite manner, and waited for the person to leave before she mysteriously approached An Hongshao and said, "Madam, I heard someone said last time that they make more delicious food when the Chinese New Year is approaching. , He said he wanted one ingot of silver."
This ingot of silver may not be worth mentioning in front of the masters of wealthy families, but in the eyes of their servants, these six months of hard work cannot buy a box of rouge.
