"Old lady..." Mrs. Wang was about to retort, but Ou Mengmeng didn't want to pay attention to her and stretched out her first finger.
"First, we are keeping filial piety. There is also a red cloth hanging at the gate, which says "Don't get close to each other. It has been more than half a year since Min'er passed away. Where is your brain?" The old lady looked at Mrs. Wang in the dark. , I really had the urge to strangle her to death.
Mrs. Wang really forgot, but now when the old lady said it, she pursed her lips and said, "They don't mind, their family also observes filial piety."
"This is the second thing. You know they are observing filial piety, so you let them come to your door." Ou Mengmeng was really about to jump. She knew this person was not smart, but she really didn't expect him to be so stupid.
"Then Miss Lin can come!" Mrs. Wang jumped, thinking that the old lady was a double standard. If Lin Daiyu can come, why can't Aunt Xue and the others come?
"It is Min'er who keeps filial piety in our house, and who does Daiyu keep filial piety for? It's also Min'er. Has your brain been eaten by a dog?" This is the third time Ou Mengmeng has said that Mrs. Wang has no brain.
Of course, after finishing speaking, Yuan Chun came in and happened to hear Ou Mengmeng and Mrs. Wang feeling embarrassed together. It was a bit embarrassing to scold someone else's mother in front of his daughter; and the one who was scolded was also embarrassed. He covered his face and looked at his daughter, "Yuanchun, I..."
"What's going on? Why did Aunt Xue move in?" When Yuan Chun first came in, he saw things being moved and asked with a dark face.
No one dared to speak anymore. Yuanchun has been in a bad temper recently.
"Go, call everyone Lai over." Yuanchun called back. All the companions around Mrs. Wang were kicked out by Yuan Chun, and now there are still people helping her. What does this mean? She looked at Wang Xifeng.
"I don't know, yes, the door has been changed, why didn't anyone tell us?" Wang Xifeng was so frightened that Yuan Chun glared at her. But she immediately raised her head and looked at Ping'er. She manages the house by herself. Even if she lives on West Road, she still goes to the front office every day. No one told her about such a big thing as opening the door? She herself felt ashamed.
"Okay, let's take care of the housekeeper's affairs later with the girls. Now tell us why I don't allow the Xue family to live here." Ou Mengmeng waved her hand to prevent them from changing the focus.
Then he turned to Sanchun and Daiyu, "We are not keeping filial piety with Daiyu, but we should keep it for Min'er. Whether Daiyu comes or not, as nephews and nieces, you all have to do it. Now Daiyu is here. , now you are observing filial piety not only for your aunt, but for Daiyu.
This is the etiquette for you, as sisters, to advance and retreat together. From now on, when Daiyu thinks of you, she will think that you have also kept filial piety for her mother, and that you are close relatives. This is more real than any kind of flesh and blood relationship.
We are a family that observes filial piety. As I said before, we hang a red cloth at the door to avoid the zodiac sign, and we also decline visitors. These are the etiquette we should have as a family that observes filial piety.
At this time, if someone comes to visit, you must first make it clear to them that we are in the period of filial piety, and they don't mind before inviting people in. "Ou Mengmeng didn't want to pay attention to Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, but said softly to Sanchun and Daiyu. She spoke softly, but in a reasonable way, so that both Sanchun and Daiyu could listen.
Yuan Chun and Wang Xifeng's livid faces softened now. Yuan Chun found a place to sit down. When he saw Lai's family, he motioned for her to wait outside. Everyone is listening to the old lady talking!
Ou Mengmeng ignored them and held out a second finger, "Secondly, your second wife just said that the Xue family is also in mourning period, so she is not afraid. But think about it, we close the door to observe mourning, and there are all kinds of taboos. Be careful at all times. The eldest and second masters of the Xue family died suddenly at the same time last year, which is a sign of great misfortune. Even if our family is not filial, we cannot let the Xue family live here."
She didn't say why the two heads of the Xue family suddenly died overnight, just before the generational change in the court! If there's nothing going on here, then she's in vain.
Otherwise, she said she wanted the Xue family to withdraw, and then Wang Ziteng sent someone to solve the problem in such a hurry? Just keep it tacit. Let those who are interested know that this family is an orphan and a widow, and there is nothing for anyone to covet. Please let her go.
"Really, really, you are not afraid of bad luck, and you don't think about others?" Mrs. Now she wants to drive the Xue family out.
"Third, and most importantly, the two heads of the Xue family died suddenly. After all, Aunt Xue was the sister of the second wife. It was really her who was bullied. It was also the four members of the Jinling family who were embarrassed. This is why your second brother Lian was so embarrassed. The reason why he went to Jinling and asked Daiyu's father to rush to suppress the battle.
However, the two pillars of the Xue family passed away suddenly. So the Wang family asked them to give up their leadership position in the family and their business duties in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Because now Aunt Xue, her daughter, and the two brothers Xue Pan and Xue Ke cannot hold on.
Originally, with the Wang family sending people and Lin Hai to suppress the situation, the Xue family's property division should have been done fairly. The mother and daughter of the Xue family, together with their two daughters, stayed in Jinling to observe mourning, and their lives would be good. Unexpectedly, the Wang family asked them to enter Beijing.
Now the mother and daughter of the Xue family are just children holding a golden baby in the busy city. If they are allowed to come to Jia's house at this time, no one will say that if we sent people to help before, is it actually seizing the birth? How do you get into this kind of thing? "
Ou Mengmeng spread her hands and faced the people below, feeling deeply that she was having such a good time! She teaches her children like this every day and has to raise two daughters-in-law who are as stupid as pigs. When she really thinks about it, she feels that the future is bleak.
"Second Madam, you don't really think so, do you?" Mrs. Xing immediately turned to the Second Madam.
"Old lady, my sister is orphaned and widowed..." Mrs. Wang was not a smart person to begin with, so she really didn't think about money when she asked her sister to live here. Now that the old lady had given three reasons, she really couldn't refute her. She was about to make a plan, but as soon as she started, she was yelled back by Ou Mengmeng.
"That's right, your sister is an orphan and a widower. You let her live in your backyard. Tell me, where do you want Zheng'er to live?" Ou Mengmeng raised her head.
The former Lixiangyuan was an independent existence and was the place where Daishan retired in his later years. At that time, Jia Zheng and his wife lived in Rongxi Hall, and although Jia She was moving eastward, their yard blocked the connection with Rongxi Hall, so Aunt Xue and the others could use the moon to communicate with Rongxi Hall. The doors are connected but at a certain distance. I really have no contact with Jia She and the others at all.
But now, Jia She opened the east entrance, thinking that Jia Zheng's house has many children, as well as the widow's daughter-in-law and grandson, so it cannot be too crowded. But this is also a problem. Even if the outer gate of Lixiangyuan is opened now, Lixiangyuan and Jia Zheng's backyard are still one. Jia Zheng's reputation!
Mrs. Xing laughed, but seeing Ou Mengmeng staring at her, she hurriedly sat down. Clearing his throat, he didn't dare to speak for a long time.
It's so hot after going to work this morning. It's seven o'clock outside in Wuhan now, and the heat is unbearable.
