Chapter 478, Eliminating the Storm (two in one chapter)
November 29th is the birthday of Mrs. Yan. Because of her fate, although the Yan family is not ready to do a big deal this time, many people come to celebrate their birthday on this day. Early in the morning, the Yan family was busy driving up and down. NS.
In the front yard, Yan Zhigao took Yan Zhiyuan, Yan Zhiqiang, and Yan Wenxiu to entertain the male relatives who came. In the backyard, Mrs. Li was responsible for welcoming the female relatives, Sun and Wu, one in charge of tea and the other in charge of the kitchen.
Yan Siyu from Guining also had something to do. She took Yang Xiuyun and Yan Yihuan to accompany Mrs. Yan and chatted and laughed with the ladies and ladies who came.
But at the beginning of noon (11:00), the upper room of Songhe Courtyard was filled with female families.
Mrs. , the ladies are talking and laughing, the atmosphere is so lively.
"The old lady is really lucky. These granddaughters and granddaughters are all beautiful and beautiful. I think, in a few years, the door of Yan's family will be broken by people who come to propose!"
Some sleek ladies pulled Yan Yihuan and Yang Xiuyun to exaggerate.
The old lady Yan responded with a smile: "Ladies have a good reputation, these few of my family are not comparable to the girls you brought, look, one looks like a fairy, and the old lady's eyes can't take care of it. "
There is a kind of person in this world who doesn't look good at others, and doesn't have any eyesight. It's clear that everyone is happy, but she wants to jump out to break the joyful atmosphere.
"Lady Yan, why didn't you see Miss Yan? Today is your old birthday. How can Miss Yan, the granddaughter, not be here?"
"Oh, by the way, at the banquet of Mrs. Chen's house the other day, I heard someone say that someone saw Miss Yan hurriedly leaving in a carriage. I wonder if it really happened?"
“It’s impolite to leave early at other people’s banquets. However, we all know that Yan Da’s family customs have always been first-class and rigorous. This girl has hurriedly left. Could it be that something happened?"
As soon as these words came out, the original lively house suddenly became quiet.
Looking at the ladies whispering to each other, or whispering, or laughing deeply, the smile on the old lady's face was a little unsustainable, and she glanced coldly at the talking lady Xu.
On the day of the Chen family's banquet, Mrs. Chen hurriedly took people out of the banquet, which caused a lot of discussions from various families. I don't know who provoked it later, saying that a girl was kidnapped by the gangster.
On that day, the eldest wife, Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Jiang all left the table one after another. Gradually, there was a rumor that it was the girls from several of their families who had been kidnapped.
This Mrs. Xu made the matter openly on an occasion like today, and even pointed at her Daohua. Her intentions were really vicious and sinister.
Yan Siyu saw that the old lady Yan was so angry that her hands trembled, and she looked like she wanted a theory, and quickly grabbed her hand and shook her head. This kind of thing became darker and darker, and she was really arguing. Still Yiyi.
"Oh, which lady is talking about me?"
At this moment, a cheerful girl's voice came in from outside the house, which was crisp and sweet, with a deep smile.
Everyone turned their heads, and then they saw that the felt curtain was lifted, and a girl wearing red embroidered sheepskin boots and a cloak in a white fox with a red feather gauze came in with a smile.
The bright black eyes like stars, the bright sweet smile, the pretty and agile face, the extravagant temperament, it’s not Yan Yiyi, who is it?
Seeing the people coming, the ladies and girls in the room were all silent.
Daohua glanced at everyone, and waited for Dong Yuanyao at the back to also come in, before pulling her straight towards the old lady Yan.
Seeing Daohua, Mrs. Yan’s face immediately filled with smiles: “You two girls, how come you come here, why don’t you hurry up to please all the ladies?”
Daohua and Dong Yuanyao first blessed the body to the old lady, and then saluted the wives.
After Dong Yuanyao stood by Mrs. Dong, Daohua smiled and looked at the people in the room: "Yiyi is late, please don't blame the ladies. Yiyi is here to make up for it!"
After speaking, he bends his knees deeply.
"You child, what are you talking about? Everyone understands that you know that you have a lot of family affairs today." Madam Dong smiled and stood up to help the person up, and then said to the lady in the room with the person.
"This child is filial. Today is the birthday of the old lady. I have to make a birthday cake for the old lady. I got up early in the morning and worked hard. I don’t know, can we taste the taste of the cake?"
These words can be regarded as explaining the reason why Daohua came late.
When everyone heard it, no matter what they thought, they praised Daohua for filial piety.
Among them, only Mrs. Xu, who had just spoken, had a stiff face. Just when she wanted to say something, Daohua walked over and spoke first.
"What is this lady?"
Ms. Xu did not expect that Daohua would come directly to find herself, and she was taken aback.
Seeing her like this, Daohua smiled: "As soon as I walked into the yard, I heard my wife talking about me. I thought it was my familiar aunt, but I never thought. It was Yiyi’s fault. I didn’t even know who my wife was. Which one is it from?"
The lady and the girl in the room looked at them with interest.
The old lady Yan scolded with a smile: "You girl, too rude, that's the wife of Xu Tongzhi's family."
Daohua immediately said'Oh', "No wonder Mrs. Xu, our two houses usually don’t move very much. It is inevitable that the face is a little bitter, but it’s hard for Mrs. Xu to think about Yiyi so much. An embarrassing thing like today will happen."
"Oh, yes. Mrs. Xu, you seemed to be saying that I left in a carriage early on the day of Mrs. Chen's banquet. Is this happening?"
Ms. Xu's face became stiff. She really didn't expect the Yan family eldest girl to take the initiative to raise this matter, and nodded slyly: "I also heard people say."
Daohua raised her eyebrows: "Who told you?"
Mrs. Xu: "I just listened to it by chance, and I can't remember people." After speaking, she raised her eyes to Daohua and asked with a smile, "It just happened that Miss Yan was here. I would like to ask. Really?"
Daohua smiled and nodded: "It's true, I did leave by carriage that day."
Seeing Mrs. Xu's eyes widened, Daohua continued to smile and said, "Why, that person only told you that I left, and no other people?" Without waiting for her to speak, she continued, "It was not only the ones who left that day. I also have Ms. Jiang, Ms. Chen, and Ms. Dong."
Ms. Xu's face froze, she dared to pull the Yan family, but she did not dare to face the Jiang family, Chen family, and Dong family who had backstage.
The smile on Daohua’s face faded a little: “Since Mrs. Xu is so interested in what happened that day, when Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Chen arrive, I will ask them to tell you exactly what’s going on.”
Ms. Xu's face changed, and she shook her head quickly: "No need, no need."
Daohua sneered: "Use, why not." Then, she looked around at the other people in the room, "Look, you have raised the interest of ladies and girls. If you don't give an explanation, you will be disappointed. ."
As soon as these words came out, there were coughs one after another in the room, and many ladies looked around in embarrassment.
Daohua smiled, but her eyes were a little cold, and she looked at Mrs. Xu again: "Ms. Xu was right just now. It is rude to leave early at a banquet at someone’s house. If you don’t explain it clearly, people think we are too much. Frivolous."
Ms. Xu's face was a little stiff: "It's really not necessary. Isn't this a big deal?"
Daohua chuckled directly: "Mrs. Xu, since it's not a big deal, why did you just talk about me in front of the ladies and girls? You don't know if your mouth opens and closes, you will give How much right and wrong did my Yan family provoke?"
Ms. Xu was completely stunned, staring at the torn rice flower directly in front of her.
The others present were also surprised and surprised.
The smile on Daohua's face is not diminished, but her momentum is getting stronger and stronger: "Mrs. Xu, your inconsistent attitude makes people think about it. Why, do you look down on my Yan family or treat my Yan family? Have an opinion?"
Ms. Xu’s throat tightened a little. She did not expect that she would be forced by a little girl and said, "What are you talking about, Miss Yan? How can I have any opinion on your family."
Ina Hua chased after him: "If you have no objection to my family, then you have an objection to me? Otherwise, you can't just open your mouth to do something that hurts the reputation of others."
"I"
Looking at Mrs. Xu who was unable to resist, all the ladies looked away, with a look of contempt on their faces.
It's a shame that the mistress of the family was bluffed by a little girl.
but
Speaking of which, this girl from the Yan family is really amazing.
Just when Mrs. Xu did not know what to do, Mrs. Li led Mrs. Jiang, Jiang Wanying, Mrs. Chen, Mrs. Chen, and Mrs. Chen Jiarou.
"Oh, why don't everyone talk?"
Mrs. Li pretended not to know the strangeness in the room, and asked with a smile.
Daohua hurriedly walked over and took Madam Li’s arm: "It’s not Madam Xu yet. She wants to know why Ms. Jiang and I left in the carriage on the day of the Chen Master’s banquet?"
Feeling Madame Jiang’s sharp gaze, Madame Xu shook, and hurriedly stood up: “No, I just talked about it casually. It was originally a trivial matter, and Miss Yan had to explain it.”
Mrs. Chen looked at the people in the room and found that almost all the female officials in the Ningmen Mansion platoon came. She didn’t want the incident that day to be a big issue and hindered her daughter’s reputation. No need to make a fuss."
As soon as these words came out, the old lady Chen and Chen Jiarou felt that they were going to suffer.
Sure enough, the two saw that Yan’s mother and daughter’s eyes fell on their daughter-in-law (mother) at the same time.
Ms. Li looked at Mrs. Chen without a smile: "Mrs. Chen's remarks are not good. Three people become tigers. A little bit of gossip may ruin one person."
"My Yiyi followed Ms. Chen and left in a carriage that day. Mrs. Chen, as the host, you should come forward to explain clearly."
Mrs. Dong also stood up at the right time: "Yes, in the past few days, I have also heard some gossips. Although the rumors stop at wise men, there are not many wise men in this world. Most of them are people who like to watch the excitement. Speaking of this, several girls are here, so it's better to explain clearly."
Seeing that everyone in the room was looking at herself, Madam Chen was a little nervous, and couldn't help but look at Mrs. Chen for help.
Mrs. Chen sighed. The granddaughter had already told them. Today, the Jiang family will come forward and explain that the daughter-in-law has to be smart and interject. Now that she is fine, she is embarrassed.
Jiang Wanying was very uncomfortable with the strange look of everyone, and she didn't want to have any more trivialities. After thinking about it, she stood up and said, "Things are because of me, so it's me."
"I felt a little unwell that day, so Ms. Chen accompanied me to the backyard for a walk. Who knows that her condition worsened midway and she needed medication to relieve it. I didn't have any medicine on my body that day."
"My illness came in a hurry. There were few people in the backyard. In addition, Ms. Chen and I dismissed all the maids around me. Ms. Chen couldn't help me. At this time, I ran into Ms. Yan and Ms. Dong. With their help, I Only then can I go home safely and take the medicine."
"Whoever thinks, such a small matter, there will be rumors."
Ms. Jiang looked at her daughter distressedly. Although it is not a secret that her daughter is weak, she is very annoyed to say it so openly.
I blamed the Chen family. It was obvious that all three of them were concealed, but there was a problem with the Chen family, and the wind was leaked. Thinking of this, Madam Jiang glanced at Madam Chen severely.
Of course, the Dong family and the Yan family are not good things. If you really want to know each other, it should not be her daughter who pretends to be sick and explain.
Daohua noticed Mrs. Jiang’s face, but she ignored it, and just smiled lightly: “Yes, it’s just a trivial matter of going home to take medicine. How can there be rumors?”
Hearing this, Mrs. Jiang glanced at Mrs. Xu again coldly. If it weren’t for these people who like to chew their tongues, there would be so many right and wrong.
Ms. Li glanced at her daughter, followed her words and said: “Maybe Mrs. Chen was too anxious that day, which made people misunderstand.”
Daohua smiled: "Yes, the guest is not feeling well, how can the host not be anxious, but it's just a matter of misunderstanding caused by this," she said, chuckles a few times.
A mother-in-law who is not calm and unsteady in the face of things, not only fails to solve the problem, but also makes the matter develop in a bad direction. How must this person and this family fail!
The ladies of each family heard the subtext in Daohua's words, and they all glanced at the three of Madam Chen in secret, and secretly weighed in their hearts whether they need to continue to associate with the Chen family.
Sun saw that everything was almost done, and he smiled and walked in: "The table is ready, everyone quickly go out and take a seat."
The ladies were trying to relieve the embarrassment just now, and immediately stood up: “I’ve heard that the dishes of Yan Da’s are the freshest, but today we are going to have a good meal.”
Ms. Li smiled and said, "Everyone, please let go of your stomach and eat, if you don’t eat enough, you can come again next time."
"Okay, then we're welcome."
The atmosphere became happy again.
Daohua helped to greet the people, and went to the end. Who knows, the old lady Chen also deliberately slowed down and leaned in: "Ms. Yan's articulation is really clever."
Daohua turned her head to look at the old lady Chen and said with a smile: "Thank you for the old lady's praise. Knowing to shirk responsibility, and not to touch the body at all, this is amazing."
Old Mrs. Chen's face sank: "The girl's house should still be gentle and quiet. It's too much. Be careful of the hardship in the future."
Daohua sneered and said: "This is not a problem for Mrs. Chen. What will happen to me in the future? I have my grandmother, parents, master, and elder brothers to worry about, Mrs. Chen, don't keep staring at other people's affairs. If you always have a leisurely mind, you should teach your family more to behave in the world."
After speaking, he turned his head and left.
