"Seventh Master...in the house...well...he is honest and honest to the point of being honest. He seems to be able to manipulate anyone. He never gossips about people, let alone complains. He is dull and stiff. , and his identity is somewhat different from that of ordinary concubines. Perhaps because of this, the Fourth Master, who also has a somewhat special status in the mansion, although he despises the Seventh Master, is willing to talk to him."
Geng Xingshuang understood what Mother Li said. Fourth Master Yang's current status in the Yang family was a bit embarrassing. He was like a master and a guest. Even as a concubine, he was more legitimate than he was in the Yang family.
Perhaps he only felt a slight sense of superiority in front of Yang Qingyong.
Yang Qingyong's biological mother is Mrs. Yang's biological sister. When she was a guest at the Yang family, she had an affair with Mr. Yang. After giving birth to a son, she did not want to be a concubine with Mr. Yang and actually eloped with him.
With such a biological mother, one can imagine the situation that Yang Qiye is in in the Yang family.
"After what happened yesterday, Master Qi felt that it was not a coincidence. Because some of Fourth Master's classmates stayed for dinner, Fourth Master called Fifth Master and Seventh Master to accompany the guests. Seventh Master found that Fourth Master seemed to be in a bad mood. , drank too much, and then those classmates left one after another, leaving only Mr. Cheng. Mr. Cheng was not in good health, but after drinking two glasses of wine, he became extremely drunk. In front of the Fifth Master and Mr. Master Qi said frankly that it was a pity that Miss Shuang had avoided the two opportunities."
Ruan frowned, "Two chances?"
Geng Xingshuang had already thought of it.
"Is there another poetry and painting competition? What are they going to do? Are they going to make a fuss about my paintings?
Let me think about it, should I let Mr. Cheng take my paintings back and then make up some reputation for giving and receiving privately, but Mr. Li Jijiu is also here, why do they dare to do this... Oh, it's mine Was the painting cut off before it was presented to Li Jijiu's case? Or as soon as I paint, the painting leaves my hand and appears again, in the hands of Mr. Cheng. "
Once she participates in the poetry and painting competition, the painting will be stamped. Geng Xingshuang's painting has never been sold. In the future, as long as Mr. Cheng takes out the painting and insists that it was given to him by Geng Xingshuang, she will not be able to argue.
No one will listen to the argument, after all, the world prefers the controversial version.
Jinbao breathed a sigh of relief and felt that the girl's mood should be much better. After all, she was willing to guess by herself.
Mother Li talked about this noon and her mouth was dry. Although the maid served tea, when both Ruan and Geng Wen were so angry, Mother Li just wanted to complete the task and go back.
"Jinbao, serve tea to Mother Li, don't make it too hot."
Geng Xingshuang saw Li's mother licking her lips twice and noticed that she was thirsty.
Jin Bao responded crisply and went to serve tea to Mother Li.
The truth is indeed infuriating, but as long as her girl is in a good mood, she will be happy too.
"Old slave, thank you Miss Shuang."
Mother Li hurriedly stood up to thank her, and then glanced at Jin Bao with some surprise, wondering why this maid was in such a high mood.
Didn't she realize that the atmosphere in the room had almost dropped to freezing point?
Mother Li drank all the tea in the tea cup in one breath and did not touch the tea cup that Jin Bao filled again. She had to finish it.
"The Seventh Master heard something fishy in Mr. Cheng's words, and he started to talk quietly. The Fourth Master knew that the Seventh Master was not to be seen in the house, and that no one cared about him, so he did not hide him. Everything I know has been told, but Mr. Cheng is still around to check for any deficiencies, so Master Qi knows that this is a well-arranged conspiracy."
"Why did Master Yang Qi tell Brother Yang about the matter?"
This time it was Geng Xingshuang who asked.
Mother Li praised her again in her heart. After so many shocks in such a short period of time, she could still be so calm and smart. It was really rare.
"This is not the fault of the Second Master, but the intolerance and foresight of the Sixth Master. The Seventh Master lived a difficult life in the mansion and his future was uncertain. When the Sixth Master returned to the mansion a few years ago, he secretly taught the Seventh Master a set of boxing techniques. The Seventh Master He practiced boxing every day and achieved some success. When the Sixth Master came back to the house during the Chinese New Year the year before last, the Seventh Master wanted to repay the Sixth Master. The Sixth Master asked him to pay attention to what happened in the house. If he hurt the second wife, if... Miss Shuang, if you come to Yang Mansion to deal with something that cannot be solved, ask Master Qi to help you in time, and then write to him immediately and tell him that Master Qi agreed."
Mother Li seemed to remember the shameful look on Yang Qingyong's face when he came to see the second master, and sighed: "Actually, the seventh master has been very careful in the past two years, and this incident happened very quickly and suddenly. When the accident happened yesterday, The seventh master was ordered by the uncle to go to the martial arts courtyard in the outer courtyard to greet the guests, so he missed it."
At that time, Mr. Yang was also in the martial arts academy. Yesterday, there were martial arts practitioners among the guests. The literati were reciting poems and painting, and the generals naturally had to practice archery and swordsmanship.
"When I learned the ins and outs of this matter from the fourth master and Mr. Cheng, I immediately came and told the second master. He also said that he would write a letter to apologize to the seventh master for not completing his entrustment."
Mother Li said and shook her head, feeling that Master Qi was too straightforward.
Their second master would definitely tell the sixth master about this, and there would be no need for him to write more letters. But after the second master said so, the seventh master insisted on writing it, and the second master had no choice but to let him go.
"Mother Li, please make this trip today. Mother Xiao, please accompany Mother Li to have lunch."
After Mother Li finished speaking, the room was quiet for a while. Ruan and Geng Wen seemed to have not yet recovered from this series of shocks.
Geng Xingshuang was helpless and had no choice but to make arrangements by herself.
"Miss Shuang broke this slave girl. If the eldest lady had not sent someone to the house in the morning, it would be difficult for grandma to come to the house at this time, but she wanted to tell the news to the eldest master and Miss Shuang in time, so she came over by herself another day. "
Mother Li stood up, said a few more polite words, and went down with Mother Xiao.
"You all get down!"
After Mrs. Li stepped back, Mrs. Ruan waved her hand and drove out Jinzhan, Hualian, Jinbao and other maids serving in the room.
The maids were silent, mainly because Ruan had always been gentle and had never been so harsh.
"Geng Wen, tell me!"
After the maids retreated, Mrs. Ruan looked straight at Geng Wen, as if she couldn't let go of any expression on his face.
"I...what did I say?"
Geng Wen's mind was in a state of confusion. What happened today was indeed too unexpected. Being stared at and asked by Ruan Shi so directly, his mind was buzzing and he couldn't even think of how to answer.
"What did you say? What did you say to Geng Cheng in order to avenge Sister Shuang?"
"I'll go find him."
When specific questions were asked, Geng Wen knew how to answer them.
"Then what do you want to say to him?"
Ruan was not willing to let it go so easily.
"Find him and confirm first. If what Mother Li said is true, I will... take him to dad and ask dad to ask for monkhood..."
"Chi..."
Before Geng Wen finished speaking, Ruan laughed out loud.
"Family law? What is the family law of your Geng family? You think I don't know. Isn't it just a matter of beating a few boards and then kneeling in the ancestral hall? As for the specific number of boards and how long to kneel in the ancestral hall, it all depends on the person who asks for the family law.
Geng Wen, if you don’t give me an explanation today, I...I...I will make peace with you! "
Ruan gritted his teeth and finally said the last two words.
Geng Wen was stunned for a moment, then shocked.
"Ah Ying, how can you say He Li so easily?"
"Who said I spoke easily? What I said this time is true. When Brother Huai was wronged and his future was lost, you handled it lightly. Now Sister Shuang almost lost her life, and you want to get away with it. , let me tell you, Geng Wen, don’t try to fool me again this time!”
Ruan's face was livid, and Geng Wen was nervous and anxious.
Geng Xingshuang felt that if things continued like this, the second room would be fine, but their family would be broken up.
She said: "Dad, Mom, I'm hungry."
"I'm hungry... I'm hungry... Let's eat, then we'll talk after eating."
Ruan was stunned for a moment and then continued.
Geng Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
Geng Xingshuang apologized to her father in her heart, and her tone seemed to be relieved a little early.
She and her mother have the same idea. Her mother has grown up, and she has grown up and is no longer so easy to fool.
