It wasn't until we left Yangxinyuan that Huaizhu said to me: "Miss, that little bitch Dai Shishi dares to scold you like that to the old lady. Aren't you angry?"
I stood there, looked back at the courtyard door, and sneered: "I'm not angry, why should I be angry with such a person."
Dai Shishi, this little bitch, tried her best to disgust me, not just for a day or two. If I get angry just because she said a few words, will I be able to get angry?
For the sake of breast health, I always take her words as fart.
Huaizhu followed me, nagging as we walked: "Young lady still has a Bodhisattva heart, otherwise I would be so angry if I were someone else."
I rolled my eyes and asked Huaizhu: "Do you still remember the reason why I came to Yangxinyuan?"
Huaizhu reacted and looked at me eagerly: "What's the purpose?"
I couldn't help but flick my finger between her eyebrows again, which made the locust beads squeal and she looked at me with tears in her eyes: "I remembered, I was going to see the old lady so that she could take back what happened to Aunt Zhou and the others. .”
"It's good to know." I said and walked towards the back garden with Huaizhu.
It's early summer now, and when we enter the back garden, we can have a panoramic view of the spring scenery, with red flowers, green willows, rippling blue waves, and vivid embellishments of peacocks, mandarin ducks and other rare and exotic animals, making it a beautiful place.
Mrs. Li, surrounded by Mrs. Liu and several other mothers-in-law, was slowly walking towards the pavilion in the courtyard. There was a place to rest in the pavilion. She must be a little tired from walking.
After she sat down, the women poured tea, rubbed her shoulders, and pinched her feet.
Mother Liu said next to her: "This girl Shishi is pregnant with the prime minister's child after all. How can the old lady bear to let this child die?"
In her opinion, whether I am favored or Dai Shishi is favored, it is all a matter of chance. After all, plans do not change quickly. Who can say for sure what will happen tomorrow?
What's more, Mrs. Li misses her grandson very much. She just doesn't like Dai Shishi, but it's not that she doesn't like her grandson. If Dai Shishi can be more successful and gives birth to a son, wouldn't it be a blessing after all the hardships?
A slave must learn to assess the situation, not to mention that when Dai Shishi first came in, she got a lot of benefits from her. At this time, it is always right to say a few good words based on conscience.
Mrs. Li took the tea, took a sip, and then said, "You think I don't like my grandson? I just don't like the behavior of that little bitch."
"We haven't even entered the door yet. She's been calculating this and that all day long. Is she the only one smart in the world? Is she the only one with a scheming mind?"
"If she dares to mess with Tai Sui, I will beat her until she never survives."
As soon as Li finished speaking, there was applause from behind.
When Mother Liu saw it was me, she didn't dare to say anything and quickly stepped aside.
I signaled my mother-in-law to get out of the way, and then I personally rubbed Ms. Li's shoulders and back, and said in her ear: "My daughter-in-law originally thought that the old lady was looking at Miss Shishi, and she was sad for a while. Now that she heard what the old lady said, my daughter-in-law I feel relieved.”
Huaizhu also wisely knelt in front of Mrs. Li and pinched her feet, so the women had to retreat.
When Mrs. Li saw me coming, she didn't even raise her eyelids: "I'm not telling you, you should be angry. How can you let that bitch take the lead? Where will the face of my Liu family be put?"
I was being pretentious: "My daughter-in-law also wants to be successful, but this matter cannot be rushed."
Mrs. Li disagreed: "What's the rush? As soon as the lamp is blown out and the eyes are closed, won't it be over? You young people today want to cultivate feelings and be sentimental. Anyway, my old lady can't understand it. "
I spotted the opportunity and followed the trend: "Thank you, madam, for understanding."
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Li glared at me again: "I'll give you another half a year at most. If your stomach doesn't move in these six months, then I will have something to say."
Half a year is enough.
No matter what, I have to find a way to run away overnight!
Thinking about this, I squeezed her shoulders even harder, not forgetting to take the opportunity to please her: "Since the old lady has given my daughter-in-law half a year, my wife-in-law would kindly ask me to take Aunt Zhou and the others back."
"Normally, my daughter-in-law and that girl Huaizhu are used to being at home in Xiaoxiang Courtyard. We are not used to it when you suddenly send so many people here."
As a result, Mrs. Li's face darkened: "Why, I sent so many people to take care of you. Is it wrong?"
I thought to myself, it's over, this old lady has become determined after eating the weight.
I said cautiously: "My daughter-in-law is grateful for the old lady's love, and she also knows that the old lady loves her daughter-in-law and the prime minister the most. But in this kind of thing, more people are not always better, right? With more people talking, isn't it easier to do bad things?"
"If the old lady is worried, just leave Aunt Zhou to take care of her while the other ladies go back. Is that okay?"
Mrs. Li's expression softened and she said to me: "Girl, don't try to have any tricks in front of my old lady, otherwise I will only ask this little girl."
When Huaizhu heard this, his little face turned pale with fright. Why did he drag her in so well?
In order to appease Mrs. Li, I had no choice but to be cruel and drag Huaizhu onto the pirate ship.
He swore to Mrs. Li and said, "No matter who my daughter-in-law is playing tricks on, she won't play tricks on the old lady. Besides, the old lady doesn't know my daughter-in-law's character. How could she possibly plot against the old lady?"
"Furthermore, if I really give birth to my eldest son safely, not only will my daughter-in-law's face be honored, but the Prime Minister's family will be honored as well, and the entire Taifu Palace will also be honored."
"No matter how you look at it, both emotionally and rationally, the daughter-in-law should be grateful to the old lady for her love for her daughter-in-law."
After seeing my repeated assurances, Mrs. Li relaxed and agreed to keep only Aunt Zhou.
Huaizhu and I both breathed a sigh of relief.
At least in the short term, I won't have to be stared at like a prisoner.
Back at Xiaoxiang Courtyard, Huaizhu quickly poured me a glass of water to rest my breath.
She also came behind me and rubbed my shoulders and back, and muttered: "It's hard for the young lady to go out this time, and her lips are almost worn out, so the old lady finally let go."
As a result, before I finished speaking, Aunt Zhou also came in. Huaizhu shut up, and Aunt Zhou said to me pleasantly: "I'm here to see if the young lady has any instructions, and if I can be useful, I can just do my bidding. "
I held the teacup and said seriously: "There's nothing important for now. Madam, please rest for now. I'll call Zhuzhu to invite you if I have something to do later."
"Hey." Aunt Zhou agreed and went back.
This time she went to pack her things so that she could move to my Xiaoxiang courtyard. To this end, I asked my servant to pack up the west wing of my courtyard for her to stay temporarily.
Huaizhu still lives with me.
After that, there were more eyes in the courtyard, and Huaizhu and I were no longer as carefree as before. Even when chatting, we had to avoid being watched at all times.
I don’t know when this hard life will end.
