She hurriedly knelt down and said, "Auntie, don't be angry. I heard that I was drunk and that's why..."
Zhang Ruoruo slumped on the chair and didn't say a word for a long time.
In the past, she would be a little bit agitated and wait until Mei Yuanqing came to coax her.
But since that day, she refused to let Mei Yuanqing enter the house several times. She thought he would realize his mistake, but in the end...
That's all, she finally understands it...
Zhang Ruoruo suddenly felt at a loss, and tears couldn't stop falling from his red eyes, and they hit the stone slabs in the room one by one.
You can hear a pin drop for a while.
"Mother, mother, I'm here to see you..."
Brother Cheng came to Zhuxi Courtyard after his morning class. Even though there was no one there, in order to avoid Zhang Ruoruo being uncomfortable, he always called her mother. As soon as he entered the room, he saw her leaning on a chair. cry.
It looked so pitiful.
He suddenly panicked, hurriedly ran forward, took Zhang Ruoruo's hand, and said softly: "Mother, I'm here to see you. What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Or is it someone who bullied you? Tell me I."
Zhang Ruoruo still leaned over and cried bitterly. Brother Cheng was still young, so he didn't understand the feelings in his heart, and the love.
But...it's all my fault, that weak aunt, that cheap maid!
She stood up suddenly, her eyes filled with anger, she held Brother Cheng's shoulders with both hands, and tried to keep her voice as soft as possible.
"Mom, I miss your father. Since your father had Aunt Ruan, he rarely visits your mother. She only has you now..."
Brother Cheng's mind was buzzing. This was the first time he saw his mother so sad, but he grasped the key points of the words.
It was all because of Aunt Ruan that my mother was sad and separated from my father...
He will definitely not let her go.
As he spoke, he clenched his fists.
Aunt Ruan had served Mei Yuanqing for breakfast. Perhaps she had taken care of her all night. She felt very tired, so she took off her shoes and got on the couch again.
These days, I don’t know if it’s because of the winter, but she is always very lethargic and sleepy...
Thinking of this, she looked at her very flat belly coldly, and couldn't help but have some vague expectations in her heart. She called her personal maid repeatedly, "Quickly go find a doctor to take a look at me, and tell others that I don't know." Comfortable. Quietly, don't tell anyone."
The maid was also smart. She seemed to have thought of something, her eyes were smiling, and she ran outside.
The doctor was soon summoned, and everyone he asked along the way was dismissed by the maid on the grounds that Aunt Ruan was unwell.
After the doctor came, Aunt Ruan couldn't wait to reach out her hand for him to diagnose. The doctor was an old man. After the diagnosis was confirmed, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Congratulations, madam. Madam's pulse is good and very stable, but usually You need to be more careful here, as this pregnancy is less than two months old, which is when it becomes unstable."
Aunt Ruan's suspicion turned into reality. She was so surprised that she didn't know what to say. She just kept stroking her belly with her hand. After a while, she raised her head and said, "Look, I've forgotten how happy I am. Go get some money for the doctor." Send it out properly." After a pause, her voice became a little colder and said, "Doctor, please don't tell anyone about my pregnancy for the time being..."
The doctor is also a good person. He travels around various aristocratic families, how can he not know their thoughts. Before Aunt Ruan finished speaking, she nodded repeatedly and said, "Madam, don't worry, I understand what you mean."
Aunt Ruan was relieved after receiving the guarantee, and ordered the maid to give more money.
This whole day she was immersed in the surprise of pregnancy.
After lunch, Wei Jingwei was just about to take a rest when she heard a message that someone was invited from Ci'an Hall.
She has been locked in the yard by herself for this period of time. Could something have happened?
She hurriedly followed her mother-in-law. As soon as she entered Ci'an Hall, she saw a woman standing in the middle of the room, slapping her thighs and crying, "I am old and can no longer be used, so I was rejected by the master. Since the main thing is No, I might as well die head-on."
As she said this, she turned around and was about to hit the wall in the house. Mei's mother and Mei Xiaoqin, who were above her, looked frightened by this scene.
Now that they have lived in Beijing for a long time, they are no longer as courageous as before.
But Wei Jingwei could clearly see that the woman's steps were not fast, and she was obviously waiting for someone to stop her.
Sure enough, as soon as those maids and women came to stop her, the crying woman sat down on the ground and continued to cry.
I don’t want to die anymore.
Wei Jingwei stepped forward and said, "Mother."
Mei's mother didn't have time to talk to her. While greeting the maids, she said sharply: "It's against you. You actually want to threaten us to death. If you really want to do this, I will send you to Ren Yazi." Sell it."
Mrs. Li's crying voice stopped for a moment. She looked at Mrs. Mei in disbelief, her eyes shining with disbelief.
She is an old person in this house who is used to doing things like this. She actually sells things whenever she wants. Even though...she is usually a bit greedy, she is not like this.
What's more, her husband died for the Mei family, and they owed it to her!
She stood up immediately and said loudly: "Old lady, you can't do this."
Mei's mother was also furious, "It's the master. I tell you what to do, and it's your turn to comment."
Mrs. Li choked up and continued to hold her neck and said: "I am also an old man in this house, and I died for your Mei family. Aren't you afraid of being criticized by others when you treat me like this?"
Mei's mother was right when she heard it. Her son still wanted to be an official. If he got into trouble because of this mother-in-law's affairs, the gain would outweigh the loss.
Unexpectedly, Mei Xiaoqin suddenly made a gloomy sound. She looked at Mrs. Li in front of her with dark eyes, "Since I can't sell it, I'll break your hands and feet and throw them in the woodshed. I'll give you a bite to eat. I won't let you down." You can starve to death."
Her words were so crazy and twisted that they made Mrs. Li shiver for no reason, as if she saw the Mei family clearly for the first time, her whole body started to tremble.
"You can't do this!"
Mei Xiaoqin sneered, "Can't I? I want to punish you, and there are many ways."
Being the head of the house during these days has also hardened Mei Xiaoqin's heart a lot. Although Mei's house is not big, there are countless things big and small.
In addition, the problem of money also surfaced. Without Wei's subsidies in many places, she could not do anything at all. She also suffered complaints from the maids and women below, saying that since she took charge of the affairs, the people below had passed. It's getting worse.
It's not as good as when Wei was here...
