Chapter 266 How Smart I Am
Yu Zhi was a little dazed, she was instructing the kitchen in the mansion to bake scallion pancakes, Madam Hou sent a maid over, saying she was going to talk to her. As a filial daughter-in-law, Yu Zhi went there happily, and brought some green onion pancakes just out of the pan for her mother-in-law to taste.
Unexpectedly, when the mother-in-law saw her, she asked, "Is there no news yet?"
What news? Whose message? Yu Zhi was dumbfounded by her question. Could it be Wen Jiuxiao's news? But her family, Master Xiaowen, didn't leave Beijing!
Yu Zhi's bewildered look made Madam Hou frown uncontrollably. Wang Mama next to her laughed and joked, "Look, the young master is quite old, and the third young lady is still like a girl. The third young lady, Madam, is it too late for you?"
Little days? Oh, when asked about her aunt, Yu Zhi suddenly realized, "Oh, mother, you are asking if your daughter-in-law is pregnant." Is it too late? Isn't it just pregnancy? She spoke in such a cryptic manner, and she wasn't really an ancient person, so it's normal to not think of it.
Madam Hou put down the teacup in her hand, and looked at Yu Zhi, "It's been a while since you two got married, is there any news?" Her eyes fell on her lower abdomen.
"No, the daughter-in-law's happy life has just passed." Yu Zhi said honestly.
"Not yet?" The disappointment on Madam Hou's face was obvious, and there seemed to be a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.
Yu Zhi was not happy, and went online immediately, "Mom, I'm afraid I remembered wrongly, we have been married for less than three months, how can I get pregnant so soon? Besides, my family Xiaowen has just recovered, and my daughter-in-law feels distressed." , but I can't bear to torment him."
"Young three, what are you talking about?" Mrs. Hou scolded lightly, her expression not very good-looking.
Listen to what she said, she loves her husband dearly, is this accusing her of not caring about her son as a mother? There are three types of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is having no descendants. Although the third child already has Zhou Zhou under his knees, but only one son, after all, is too thin, and it is a blessing to have many sons and grandchildren. She cared about her son's heirs, was she wrong?
"My daughter-in-law is telling the truth!" Yu Zhi blinked, looking innocent.
Madam Hou was angry, why did she forget that the third child is a fool? She couldn't understand good words at all, so she shouldn't have called her for questioning. The outstanding performance on the day of the banquet really has a lot of hidden secrets, most likely it was taught by the third brother.
Hmph, the third child has a lot of leisure!
Why did Mrs. Hou think of worrying about whether Yu Zhi was pregnant? Annoyed chant! The pregnant concubine in the eldest son's yard was almost four months old. Several doctors said that she didn't look like a boy after seeing it, and Mrs. Hou didn't think it looked like it herself. She also asked Mrs. Wen to take a look at it quietly, and she also said that it was probably a little daughter out of ten.
The eldest son has no successors, and Mrs. Hou has already accepted her fate. But suddenly a woman in Dafang became pregnant, which rekindled hope in Mrs. Hou's heart. Even if you don't have a concubine, it's okay to have a concubine! But now...her hopes were dashed again.
The eldest son Bacheng is destined to have no son, so he can only be adopted. Mrs. Hou's eyes will not just turn to the other son? The third child's family hadn't come to pay his respects for more than half a month, and the third child came to ask for leave in person for her, saying that she was tired and sick from taking care of him. Mrs. Hou remembered that when she went to visit her son that time, the face of the third family was indeed not very good-looking, so she readily agreed.
But when we met each other today, the complexion of the third family was ruddy, not only did not show any trace of sickness, but also became more radiant. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been natural enemies since ancient times, Yu Zhi is not only not haggard, but also as delicate and beautiful as a flower, Madam Hou naturally feels uncomfortable.
Madam Hou considers herself a noble lady, so naturally she wouldn't point her nose at her daughter-in-law and scold her like a country woman? She only knows how to grind people with soft knives, so she said: "There are no useful people around you. I have two maids here, you can take them back."
Give it directly to others, and don't even bother to cover it up.
Yu Zhi...
Do you know how excited she is? Is this the legendary mother-in-law stuffing people into her son's room?
If it is another young daughter-in-law, even if she is reluctant in her heart, she has to endure it.
Ke Yu Zhi has never taken an unusual path!
"Mother, there are quite a few people around my daughter-in-law, and there is no shortage of people." As if to prove that she was not lying, they listed and introduced to Mrs. Hou one by one, "Lianwu and pomegranate were brought back from Ancheng, and they are quite capable. Cherry It was the first one used by the daughter-in-law, and it is very considerate. There are also mangosteen and carambola that the daughter-in-law picked from our house after entering the door, and they are also very sensible. In addition, there are six people around Jiang's mother, mother, and daughter-in-law. There is no shortage of people. .” She looked serious.
Ms. Hou is very upset, this idiot, why can't he understand the words?
"If you are asked to take it back, you will take it back. Why are there so many words?"
"But there are enough people around my daughter-in-law, and my daughter-in-law and the third master just started a house to live. How can I not be frugal? Two more people will have two more mouths to eat, and I can't afford it."
Madam Hou took a deep breath, "The monthly money for both of them comes from this house."
Yu Zhi was still a little reluctant, "What about the deed of sale? If there is no deed, what will they do if they betray the master? My daughter-in-law doesn't dare to ask for it."
Madam Hou gritted her teeth, "Xiang Lan, take it to Madam Third."
"That's fine, I'll take it back." Yu Zhi accepted the contract of prostitution of two maids, with a look of reluctance. She glanced at the two maids standing below, and reconfirmed, "Mother, are these two maids sent by you to serve your daughter-in-law and the third master?"
"Yes, to serve you and the third child." Isn't the concubine's room just to serve the mistress?
Yu Zhi felt relieved, "That's good! If there is nothing wrong, the daughter-in-law will leave first?"
Madam Hou has long been displeased with her, her eyelids drooping, "Go back, it's a good thing to settle people down."
When Wen Jiuxiao came back, she saw Yu Zhi half lying on the soft couch, and two maids were serving her, one was pinching her shoulders, the other was beating her legs, and after a while she had to put it in her mouth Feed a piece of snacks, you can enjoy wanton.
What kind of trouble is this? Wen Jiuxiao raised his eyebrows.
Yu Zhi showed off, "These two are newly given by my mother, aren't they good? Shall I share one with you?"
Wen Jiuxiao's face suddenly turned cold, and seeing her happy again, she looked like she had taken advantage of it, but she was not sure what she meant, "No." He refused, and explained, "I don't need a maid."
Yu Zhi didn't mind either, and smiled, "Leave that to me."
"As you like." Wen Jiuxiao glanced at the two maids coldly, and said, "Teach the rules well."
Yu Zhi waved his hand, "Mother's people, the rules must be very good. Mother said, let me put them in a good place. Cherry, you are older, let Hongxiu stay with you. Pomegranate, you are patient, let Tim Xiang is in the room with you." She ordered loudly.
Cherry and Pomegranate said respectfully: "Your servant obeys."
Yu Zhi said again: "Be sure to let them feel the warmth of spring."
Both of them knew what the next sentence was. Cherry and Pomegranate looked at each other, and they both saw the smile in each other's eyes, "I obey."
Before they were still worried about the master, but now it seems that the young lady knows it well, so they can rest assured.
In the evening, Yu Zhi was leaning on the bedside to read a script, Wen Jiuxiao was silent, but still said, "Those two maids..."
Yu Zhi quickly said: "One is called Hongxiu and the other is called Tianxiang. Isn't it poetic? My mother must know that I don't study much, so she specially sent these two people here so that I can nurture them. This represents my mother's love for me. ardent expectations."
When talking about expectations, her smile was soft and her eyebrows were curved.
Wen Jiuxiao was silent again, looked at Yu Zhi suspiciously, and asked tentatively: "You, don't you know what those two maids do?"
"I know! The one who served us. I was afraid of making a mistake, so I specifically asked my mother to confirm that she was the one who served us. If you don't want it, wouldn't it be all for me?" Yu Zhi said confidently, eyes There was a flash of cunning.
Wen Jiuxiao suddenly laughed, "Yes, you are right. A maidservant serves the master."
"Of course, how smart am I, how can I get my mother's meaning wrong?" Yu Zhi squinted at Wen Jiuxiao, his appearance was charmingly charming.
"Yes, madam is the smartest person in the world!"
"Ha, so-so, so-so, so it's third!"
