"Old madam, I heard that my cousin is helping you with the housekeeping in the house. Our madam is happy and worried at the same time. You know, our third aunt is not in good health and is ill. I heard that she can't get out of bed now. Someone needs to take care of me. Originally, my second aunt could help with this, but my second aunt has not been in good health these days."
The mother-in-law paused for a moment when she said this. She looked at the old lady's face that was getting worse and worse, and suddenly changed her words: "It happened that our Madam Hou's sister was in the house. I heard that the third girl was sick and no one was taking care of her. Our Madam. I mean, let her help my cousin take care of the third aunt's grandma for a few days. The cousin is young and too busy at the moment. If anything happens to the third aunt's grandma, our wife will be heartbroken to death."
The words sounded nice, but the meaning behind them was very clear. The old lady's blood was boiling, but she couldn't say a word "no".
Mrs. Kong actually sent someone to her house before Mrs. Kong had anything to do. How unbecoming!
But she couldn't refuse.
"Thank you for your help, girl." The old lady said coldly.
"Miss Ma Er is older than my cousin. She can also help when she comes to the house. Unlike those young girls, who will be in a hurry when encountering such a thing."
The mother-in-law said.
Following her words, the old lady's expression slowly calmed down. If something really happened to the Kong family, of course she would have to marry someone a little older.
Mrs. Zuo Xiang is not something a young woman can sit still.
Now that it was delivered, she wanted to take a good look at it.
"Okay, when will Miss Ma Er come over?"
"Our wife wants to come over tomorrow. After all, the third aunt and grandma have at least few people to take care of her these days. I heard that my aunt went out to the nunnery to pray for blessings. Now that Miss Ma is coming, she will definitely be able to help my cousin."
The mother-in-law smiled.
"Okay, then tomorrow." The old lady said.
"The old lady is kind and treats the third aunt and grandma the best. I will go back and report to our great lady right now. Prepare some necessary things for Miss Ma Er and send someone to deliver them tomorrow." The old lady received the favor and bowed sideways. .
The old lady waved her hand.
She had an agreement with Mrs. Kong before, so she couldn't refuse this proposal. She raised her eyes to Jiang Jinxin and looked at her carefully.
Jiang Jinxin knew that the old lady suspected that she and Mrs. Kong were conspiring together, so she sat calmly and quietly without any response.
The wife of Anxinhou Mansion stepped back and went back.
The house was finally filled with family members.
"Jinxin, what kind of person is Miss Ma Er?" the old lady asked, glancing at Jiang Jinxin with a flash of light in her eyes.
Jiang Jinxin said respectfully: "Grandma, my granddaughter doesn't know what kind of person this girl Ma Er is. She only knows that she is her aunt's sister. Although she has seen her before, she is not familiar with her. She only said one or two sentences to her. As for the matter, I heard that I have been observing filial piety before."
"You haven't made a filial piety yet?
"I have already made a filial piety, and now I live in Anxinhou Mansion. I don't know the specific details."
After all, she is just a girl who has not left the court. There are some things that she will avoid even if she wants to talk about them. In comparison, Kong may know more.
Looking at Jiang Jinxin's clear eyes with some confusion, the old lady was silent for a moment, regretting for the first time that it would have been better if Kong didn't faint.
Kong's health was not good, but he was so tired that he fell behind again and again.
Now she had to ask Mrs. Kong to arrange for a woman to enter the house first. This was because she wanted to secure her status. The old lady sneered in her heart. If she didn't let go, what would happen if she entered the house!
"Okay, you can go down too!" The old lady was in a bad mood. Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of her, she just drove them away.
"Grandma, how should I deal with the matter of worshiping my grandfather?" Jiang Jinxin stepped back in no hurry and talked about the matter just mentioned.
"Determine a date and ask someone to prepare it. If you don't understand anything, just ask the old housekeeper in the mansion. Then we will go to worship your grandfather together."
The old lady said.
"This Aunt Han just now has a good way with hexagrams. She is very effective. There have been a lot of things in our house recently. I don't know if there was a collision. People in the house are having troubles one after another. It happened that she came over and asked her to help us. There will be a ritual ceremony in the house and a fortune telling to see if anything has happened recently."
"Need to check the yard?" Jiang Jinxin was curious.
After all, she was just a young girl, and she didn’t have much contact with such people. The old lady said: “You also need to look at the overall layout of the divination. It is said to be a ritual. It is different from the rituals performed by ordinary Taoist priests. There is no need to prepare Taoist rituals. It's the same thing, but you must have a divination tube. When the time comes, you all go and draw one and make a divination."
The old lady said.
"I...want divination too?"
"Let the people in the inner courtyard do some divination," the old lady said.
"My mother wants it too?"
"Your mother wants it too. If your mother can't get up, ask Gu Gu Gu to go to your mother's house and make a divination based on the layout of your mother's house."
The old lady said impatiently, "Go down first. You don't understand this. I'll ask someone to prepare it. Then you and your mother can do the divination together."
This was the order to expel the guests. Jiang Jinxin stood up, bowed and left.
After leaving the old lady's yard, Jiang Jinxin told Yang Liu, "Go and find out where this Aunt Han went? Did she go to see Jiang Linglong?"
Yangliu retreated in response...
Willow left quickly and did not come back quickly. By the time she came back, Jiang Jinxin had already seen Kong, returned to her yard, and washed herself.
"Girl, you guessed it right. Han Guagu really went to the eldest girl's yard and walked around outside the eldest girl's yard. The maid next to the eldest girl saw her and scolded her. I heard that she was a Guagu. , it was the old lady’s wish, so the eldest girl was brought in, and she talked for a while before leaving. "
Jiang Jinxin's long eyelashes fell, and she thought thoughtfully. I'm afraid this Guagu's problem is not just a matter of silver. I originally thought that it was just touching some people's money, but now it seems that it is not just what I see in front of me, but now Money is a trivial matter, but I always feel that this Aunt Han is more than what I have seen twice.
But when I think about it again, I can't remember it, as if I am just paranoid about everything.
Three days, three days later!
If Aunt Han and Aunt Gu have another agreement, then what happens in these three days will not be just a simple divination, and what she has to do is to clear away the potential dangers around her mother in these three days.
In three days, something must happen to her or her mother, and in that case, she has to take action right away.
Without further ado…
"Girl, a woman has come outside the house. She is kneeling outside the house and begging to see her. The old lady asked you to go and have a look." A woman's voice came in from outside, and the two masters and servants who were talking were stunned for a moment... Who could it be?
