"Madam, you deliberately sent your uncle away to come here to find the young lady. We are here as guests now. If you have anything to say, we'd better keep it quiet for now. It won't be too late to close the door and have a good talk after we get back to our own home. Master and

The madam loves the young lady, and the young lady knows it better than anyone else, right?"

Liu Doukou raised his eyes and looked at the maid. This maid was her mother's most capable maid, and she used to be her mother's dowry maid.

"Yeah." Liu Doukou nodded and stood up.

If you make a fuss here, it will be troublesome if your cousin comes over later and finds out about Xiao Yuxi. You should wait until you get home before begging your parents.

Just as this servant girl said, she is the darling of her parents, the apple of their eye. No matter what she wants, her parents have always given her to her.

This time, of course, there will be no exception.

At Lao Mu's house, as soon as Mrs. Liu came out of the east room, Mu Zichuan, who had been waiting here, came to greet her.

"Aunt, how is my cousin?" Mu Zichuan looked at the door of the east room that was closed immediately, and asked with some worry.

Mrs. Liu turned around, smiled calmly at Mu Zichuan, and said, "I have persuaded her to lie down, and she is fine."

Mu Zichuan still couldn't feel relieved and asked again: "Why did my cousin go back to the river behind the village? Didn't she always go to the theater with my aunt and you guys before?"

Mrs. Liu smiled bitterly and said: "Tonight's song is about the birthday wishes of the five daughters. Maybe she saw the kind-faced mother in the opera and thought of her aunt, which made her feel uncomfortable."

"I didn't dare to come back, for fear that if you saw it, it would arouse your sorrow, so that silly girl walked around the village alone to relax. She went to the river behind the village and was in a daze, which made it difficult for us to find people.

They were all scared to death!”

Mu Zichuan was deeply moved when he heard that the reason why his cousin was lost was because he missed his deceased mother, so he went to the river alone to be in a daze and remember the deceased.

"It's really hard for my cousin," Mu Zichuan said.

"It's such a cold day that she stood alone by the river for so long and cried. It's really heartbreaking," Mu Zichuan said.

"Aunt, can I go in and see her?" he asked again.

Normally, what Mrs. Liu wanted to see was that Mu Zichuan was kind to Liu Doukou, but he always looked cold.

Now he took the initiative to show his kindness, but Mrs. Liu did not dare to let him in.

When the dead girl inside gets excited and pulls Xiao Yuxi out, the marriage will be over!

By then, not only will he lose Mu Zichuan, his noble son-in-law who will be a high official in the future, but he will also lose his nephew, Tanhualang. All his fame and benefits will be wasted, and he will also be laughed at.

"I finally coaxed Daukong to sleep. Zichuan, you'd better come see her tomorrow. It's getting late now. You should go back to the house and rest!" Mrs. Liu said.

Mu Zichuan is a gentleman and a gentleman observes etiquette. Hearing this, he bowed slightly to Mrs. Liu, turned around and went back to his room, closing the door.

Mrs. Liu breathed a sigh of relief and was about to turn around and go back to the east room when she glanced around and found her younger siblings looking over at the door of the main room.

"Second brother and sister, after all, you are the daughter of a scholar family. You have been in our Liu family for more than ten years. Why can't you get rid of this habit of eavesdropping on others?" Mrs. Liu asked angrily.

Mrs. Liu Er, who was at the door, stood up from outside with a playful smile, "Sister-in-law, you are serious. I don't call it probing, I call it understanding."

"Although my father is a scholar, he is also a person who reads books from sages. When others are talking, don't pop up easily and interrupt them. You should wait quietly aside. When they have finished speaking, it is only etiquette to show up again."

"I think you are just probing your head!" Mrs. Liu said again.

Mrs. Liu Er was still not annoyed, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, why do you care so much about me standing at the door? Could it be that what you said to Zichuan is shameful? So you are afraid that I will hear a few words and say something to you, a dignified sister-in-law.

Does the image suffer?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Mrs. Liu shouted coldly.

"Oh, since the content of your chat is so revealing, why are you so afraid of me appearing here? Or has someone done something shady?" When Mrs. Liu Er said this, her eyes deliberately went to Liu Doukou's room.

He glanced at it and smiled meaningfully.

Madam Liu couldn't wait to rush up and tear her sister-in-law's mouth out.

The Liu family has never been divided. As the eldest sister-in-law, she naturally has to take care of the house.

But since this sister-in-law came into the house more than ten years ago, she licked her parents-in-law so comfortably with her mouth that the second brother also doted on her. Although she didn't care about the family, in the Liu family, this second sister-in-law was the most pampered.

She has never been short of food and clothing. As a sister-in-law, she still holds the power of the housekeeper, so she has to figure out what she wants to buy for herself.

But what about her? She can buy whatever she wants. She really doesn’t know how expensive firewood and rice are when she’s not a householder.

If she rejects her request to buy something, she will complain to her parents-in-law in tears. The whole family will think that she, the elder sister-in-law, is using her power as the housekeeper to be harsh on her younger brother-in-law.

I really have no place to complain when I am wronged!

I gave birth to a son and a daughter. The son failed to live up to expectations and could not study well. He had to stay at home and inherited his father's business and learned to do business. His daughter-in-law's family is also a merchant.

As for my sister-in-law, she also gave birth to a son and a daughter. The son was determined to be a scholar and became the focus of the Liu family's training.

Therefore, in the Liu family, the second bedroom has a better future than the larger one.

However, since Daukou and Zichuan got engaged, Dafang has quickly turned around.

With Zichuan as the son-in-law, the son-in-law is the son-in-law. In addition, he is a nephew, and the kiss is getting closer. In the future, the big house will follow the tide. Of course, if there is any advantage, he will take care of the big brother first.

Not the second cousin.

Therefore, the second wife has always been very jealous. I guess my sister-in-law dreams about the marriage becoming an affair, right? We can’t let her see the joke!

"You must have evidence for what you say. It's simply unreasonable for you to talk like crazy!" Mrs. Liu rolled down her sleeves.

"Doujiao misses her aunt and is sick with worry. She just took medicine and lay down. If you have half the consciousness of being an elder, go back to your own guest room and calm down. Don't make any noise!" she said again.

Mrs. Liu Er's eyes rolled around, but she still smiled kindly: "This child Daukou is really filial. My poor sister Fubo left early. Otherwise, she would be like a fairy to have such a filial and considerate daughter-in-law waiting for her.

Today, oh, what a pity..."

"Okay, okay, you go back to the house quickly!" Mrs. Liu waved her hand impatiently, turned around and went back to the east room.

Mrs. Liu Er also returned to the guest room.

"Second Madam, this servant will wait for you to wash your feet and rest."

The maid brought a basin and knelt down in front of the second lady to serve her.

The second lady was not moving, her palm was dragging her chin, and her eyes were not moving.

"Second Madam..."

"There's something fishy, ​​there's definitely something fishy!" the second lady said suddenly.
