Chapter 844: brother
"Why are there two more girls?"
"The fourth girl went to the eldest girl today to listen to the stewards' affairs, and said that she was learning some things about the housekeeper. It happened that the princess sent some shad, and the eldest girl shared one in the house, so the fourth girl was left alone. My son had a meal, and took the silver to go to the kitchen, and exchanged a few of the fourth girl's regular dishes, and this happened before I could eat it."
After Mrs. Zhao rinsed her mouth, she took the warm water she wanted to drink again, took a sip, and said, "Send someone to look over there. When the master comes back, the food is cold. Let's take it away first. Let the cook prepare some soup and snacks." , the son will come back in a while, so I can fill my stomach."
"yes!"
Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. I don’t know what happened to my natal family? She thought of her father saying that she would ask Baoshan to help her elder brother to propose a marriage. Her elder brother's personality was said to be like her mother's, but not exactly like her mother's. In the future, he might not be able to get an official career, and she didn't know if he could start a business. After a lifetime, it is a blessing.
As she thought about it, she slowly fell asleep. After she became pregnant, she seemed to be particularly lethargic.
Xiao Lingyu never dreamed that the person who came was Xiao Ke. Seeing Xiao Ke's livid face, she took a step back in fright, and murmured, "Second brother!"
Xiao Ke glanced at her coldly, then looked at the two sisters Xiao Lingsu, and said, "Go out and let the maids help you change your clothes. If you are not full, let the kitchen serve you food again."
"Yes, thank you second brother!" The two saluted and went down.
"Second brother, it's not my fault, it's them, it's the second sister who is too deceitful. She said yesterday that I would take care of today's sweeping, but she didn't say when to start. It's all done, she clearly wants to make me look ugly."
Xiao Lingsu, who had just walked under the eaves, heard it and staggered.
Xiao Ke sneered, "So, you just make trouble like this, making the whole family restless?"
"Second brother, eldest sister is the sister of your first mother, isn't it why you are so partial? They are all from this house, and they are all father's children. Why do you and eldest sister have shad to eat? My third sister and I But the fourth sister didn't?"
Xiao Lingyue also heard it, and wanted to go in and explain that she actually didn't want to eat.
She didn't speak, Xiao Lingsu saw her hesitation, and pulled her away, "Let's go to the East Flower Hall and ask someone to set another table. No matter what, we still have to eat enough."
The east wing room was changed into a flower hall. On weekdays, Xiao Lingsu listened to the manager's reply or entertained guests here. Now, a screen and a brazier are placed. Although it is not as comfortable as the main room Dilong, it is also comfortable. warm.
"Big sister, why didn't you let me go and explain it to my second brother just now?" Xiao Lingyue was a little puzzled, tears filled her eyes because of her grievance.
"Obviously, my eldest sister and I were eating shad together. It was my elder sister who said there were shad here, so she deliberately kept me here."
Xiao Lingsu smiled and said, "You are still young and don't understand. My sister-in-law used to tell me that explaining is the most useless thing. People who understand you don't need to explain. People who don't understand you, if you explain, He will say that you are making excuses. Think about it, who is our second brother?"
Second brother is our elder brother. Xiao Lingyue felt relieved when she thought of how kind and pleasant the second brother was to them just now, and he didn't ask them to question her.
The shad, she also ate two chopsticks, it was delicious.
What a pity!
"If you want to eat shad, there will be shad at sister-in-law's place later, let's eat it again."
"It's a waste of time and money to transport shad from the south in this icy and snowy place." Xiao Lingyue didn't know anything.
Xiao Lingsu smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? I don't eat it often, and I didn't eat it for this. I did these things on purpose. I heard that it was sold by traders. When the people in the kitchen met me, I bought it. After picking up several pieces and coming back, my sister-in-law split up several pieces when she saw that it was really rare, mainly to honor the father, and it happened that the second sister-in-law was pregnant again."
Xiao Lingyu was scolded by Xiao Ke, sent to the ancestral hall, and ordered her to copy a hundred volumes of the "Diamond Sutra", copying on her knees, when she finished copying, and when it was released, the handwriting must be correct, without alteration or dirt.
When Mrs. Ma heard this, she was furious. Because of this matter, she went to the East Head Court disregarding her face. It's too unfair, the housekeeper of the eldest girl doesn't know that a bowl of water is level, that's why such a thing happened, and there is no elder in this family to suppress it..."
"What do you mean, I should make you a concubine, so that you can be a town house beast at home?" King Xiang narrowed his eyes and glanced at Mrs. Ma.
Mrs. Ma smiled sarcastically, "Look at the joke my lord made, how can I be a town house beast?"
Jacaranda was doing needlework during the second time. When Ma Shi came, she didn't know what to say. She had to avoid it, so as not to make Ma Shi face off and feel unhappy.
"I don't even have the opportunity to serve the prince now." Madam Ma lowered her head and wiped her tears.
King Xiang didn't know if he had heard it, and called the maid under the eaves, "Come here, where is A Ni? Send her here!"
The maid blessed her body and went.
Mashi didn't know who A Ni was, and thought to himself, what does A Ni have to do with this matter? When the little maid came over holding a bird cage with both hands, a lovesick bird inside looked weird, her eyes went dark with anger, and she almost fainted.
Dare to love, the two children she gave birth to are not comparable to a bird in the eyes of the prince.
"My lord, you can't ignore my concubine and my two children. How can we have any honor in this mansion?"
King Xiang has a bad temper recently, he resisted the urge to kick Mrs Ma, and squinted at Mrs Ma, "Whether I didn't give you food or didn't give you clothes, you are a concubine, you care about this king's children. What? Don't you say that you raised two unworthy children who were still crying in front of me. The children born by Zhuang's are much better than yours. You can't even compare with Zhuang's, and you still have the face The king is crying and crying!"
King Xiang was very angry, but Ma Shi was also very upset, "The concubine is naturally not as good as my sister, and the concubine's child is not a direct descendant, so how can I compare with my sister's?"
King Xiang chuckled, "Is there a small courtyard on the west side of Xijinzhai? I forgot what it was called. I forgot. Look at me, you are also a madman. From today onwards, you should stay there Cultivate your body and mind!"
