Chapter Five: Hanlin Liu Family (3)
If Liu Ruosi's own words are used, Liu Ruoyuan is the murderer.
Mrs. Liu Er didn't let her say that, or even let her think that. However, Liu Ruosi was very sure. She was the party involved, and no one knew what happened at that time. Moreover, what Liu Ruoyuan did was not
For the first time, she was not the first victim.
Thinking of this, Liu Ruosi couldn't help but glance at Liu Ruojuan.
Coincidentally, Liu Ruojuan actually raised her head at this time. As soon as the two girls' eyes briefly touched, Liu Ruojuan quickly looked away.
"...One thing comes after another. Your sister-in-law and Yujiang's wife are both busy day and night. You are the only one free in this house. I won't assign you, you can look after it yourself, anyway.
Help me." Old Mrs. Liu said to Mrs. Liu Er.
"Old lady, you don't know. In the past two days, I have been asking my sister-in-law to see what I can do to help. My sister-in-law won't let me do anything... I..." Mrs. Liu Er said with a smile.
.
Nowadays, in the Liu family, Old Mrs. Liu is old, and ostensibly she no longer cares about the family. She leaves all matters to the eldest wife of the Liu family, with Grandma Liu assisting her. However, when encountering major problems, Mrs. Liu does not dare to take matters into her own hands.
, you have to ask Mrs. Liu first.
It can be said that nowadays, Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu and Grandma Liu have the final say on all matters in the inner courtyard of the Liu family. Mrs. Liu, on the other hand, is totally indifferent.
When Liu Ruosi heard Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu talking, she immediately put aside her other thoughts and turned her head to listen carefully. She knew that the two people were talking about celebrating Mrs. Liu's birthday.
On the eighth day of February in the second year of Xianqing's reign, it was the sixtieth birthday of the old lady of the Liu family. Naturally, it was a grand event for her sixtieth birthday. The people who took charge of this event were Mrs. Liu and Grandma Liu.
"Your elder sister-in-law is filial to me. When it comes to filial piety, it's not that I'm biased. None of you are as good as your elder sister-in-law... She meant it to be polite, because she feels sorry for you. But you are honest and not polite." Mrs. Liu sighed slightly.
She lowered her face and glanced at Mrs. Liu Er with the corner of her eyes, "You have been here for these years, what else do you not understand? Your sister-in-law will not tell you, but you should take the initiative... Help wherever you can...
…”
"Yes." Seeing Mrs. Liu like this, Mrs. Liu Er could only nod her head in agreement.
"Mother." Liu Ruosi moved to Mrs. Liu Er's side, quietly grabbed Mrs. Liu Er's sleeve and pulled it.
Mrs. Liu Er and Liu Ruosi exchanged a look.
There was something in Old Mrs. Liu's words, and Mrs. Liu Er and Liu Ruosi both heard it.
Old Mrs. Liu was hinting and hitting Mrs. Liu Er. This is an old trick. Mrs. Liu's absence at this moment and Grandma Liu's being sent out to do things are all deliberate.
Come to think of it, by this time, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had already gained the trust and knew that Mrs. Liu had completed her mission and it was time for them to take the stage.
"Mother." Liu Ruosi shook her head gently at Mrs. Liu Er.
Mrs. Liu Er sighed secretly and patted Liu Ruosi's hand gently.
Liu Ruosi knew that Mrs. Liu Er was planning to compromise.
"Mom, at least..." Liu Ruosi knew that she could not easily change Mrs. Liu Er's decision, but at least this time, Mrs. Liu Er should not agree so happily.
"Yes." Mrs. Liu Er nodded when she saw her daughter acting like this.
"... It's the old lady's sixtieth birthday. My mother and I copied some scriptures on security and longevity. Taking advantage of today's good day, we are going to send incense to the Daxiangguo Temple in the west of the city to offer incense and pray for the old lady." Liu Ruosi said to Old Liu.
The wife said.
"Then let's go." Old Mrs. Liu said in a friendly manner, with a hint of joy and concern in her tone. "There's no hurry today, let's go tomorrow. Third girl, you're in a good position, please be steady first."
Old Mrs. Liu was in a good mood and cared about her so much. Although she just said a word, there was naturally a reason. And that reason was in what Old Mrs. Liu just said and in what Mrs. Liu Er said.
The sound came from inside.
Both Mrs. Liu Er and Liu Ruosi knew this very well, but Mrs. Liu Er was a little happy about it, but Liu Ruosi lowered her eyes, feeling very different in her heart.
Liu Ruosi made up her mind and stood up to say goodbye to Mrs. Liu Er.
"Sit down for a while, I have something else to tell you." Old Mrs. Liu glanced out the door as if unintentionally, stopping the two of them.
At this time, the little girl outside came in to report that Mrs. Liu and Grandma Liu were here.
Old Mrs. Liu relaxed her brows and immediately let the two of them in.
Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu came in, first greeted Mrs. Liu, and then greeted Mrs. Liu Er. Then, Mrs. Liu came over, took Liu Ruosi's hand, looked up and down, and greeted her.
Mrs. Liu's actions and attitude towards Liu Ruosi were very similar to Mrs. Liu's.
There is a reason why mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are so similar.
Mrs. Liu and Grandma Liu are aunts and nephews. Mrs. Liu is the direct daughter of the Feng family, and Grandma Liu is her niece who is a concubine. Marrying a niece who is a concubine to a concubine can be regarded as a perfect match and they can be married in person.
Mrs. Liu is much taller than Grandma Liu. She is of medium build and has a pale complexion. Because her eyesight is not very good, she often squints her eyes, as if she is calculating something all the time.
When Mrs. Liu smiles, she is quite gentle and joyful.
"...Three girls, I'm done. I've finally settled down. If you want something to eat, just tell me and I'll have it cooked in the kitchen and delivered to you." After saying this, Mrs. Liu was no longer interested.
He took Liu Ruosi's hand again and half hugged her in his arms.
Mrs. Liu is closer to Liu Ruosi than to her two biological daughters.
Mrs. Liu just hugged Liu Ruosi while talking to Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu about the birthday preparations. Mrs. Liu is a capable person, especially she has a capable assistant like Grandma Liu beside her.
The birthday matters are almost ready. However, there are still some things that are not going smoothly.
Old Mrs. Liu is celebrating her birthday, and there will be many guests at that time. The whole family will have to make new clothes, and the fabric of the new clothes naturally needs to be of the highest quality and the most fashionable. But unfortunately, this fabric is in short supply, and it is difficult to buy it at the moment.
At the birthday banquet, rare items such as sea cucumbers and shark fins were not available for a while.
When talking like this, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu's eyes seemed to glance at Mrs. Liu several times inadvertently.
There was no room for Liu Ruosi to interfere in these matters. She acted as if she had not heard anything. While enjoying Mrs. Liu's kindness, she looked at Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan, raising her eyebrows slightly, with a proud face.
In the past, Liu Ruosi often did this. However, it was a true expression of her feelings, and it was far less public and obvious. Now she does it out of completely different thoughts.
Liu Ruojuan only glanced at Liu Ruosi, then turned to look at Liu Ruoyuan. If you look carefully, you can see that there was a bit of expectation in the girl's eyes. However, Liu Ruoyuan did not look at Liu Ruojuan, she only stared at Liu Ruosi.
Liu Ruoyuan first moved over and took the opportunity to push Liu Ruosi away. However, Mrs. Liu pushed her eldest daughter away without politeness and secretly gave her a warning look.
However, Liu Ruoyuan's jealousy was not so easy to extinguish.
In her opinion, Liu Ruosi's appearance was both showing off and provoking. Even though her mother had warned her thousands of times in private and knew the reason why her mother did this, Liu Ruoyuan still couldn't see Liu Ruosi being so proud and became angry.
Blushed.
Liu Ruoyuan has never known the word "patience", even if it is just for a moment. She only follows her heart and acts directly and quickly.
The little girl handed over the hot tea, Liu Ruoyuan took it, and then raised her hand, and a cup of hot tea was poured towards Liu Ruosi.
