Mother Su and others pinched and patted Ms. Xie before she recovered.
"You damn girl, you are really tired of living." Mother Su shouted with anger in her face.
The little girl was already so frightened that she knelt on the ground, trembling, and kowtowed to apologize.
"Okay, no matter what her business is." Ms. Xie said slowly and waved her hand, "It's me... I'm not living up to expectations..."
Ah Luan hurriedly took the girls out.
"Madam, we can't go on like this." Mother Su said urgently.
Mr. Xie looked sullen and seemed to be dazed.
"The second madam is right. The prince is a man and a woman alone, and the prince is straight-tempered. The woman is cunning, and now they live in the same house again. Although they haven't... yet, they are husband and wife after all. If so... it's normal.
If... this man had tasted that woman's body, he would..." Su's mother said in a low voice.
"Stop talking." Ms. Xie shouted at her. She couldn't even imagine such a thing...
Mother Su lowered her head and stopped talking.
"I will never... let this woman... offer incense to my sister and me as my daughter-in-law..." Ms.
Tuan said, "That old thief woman killed my sister. I will never let my sister suffer such humiliation after her death!"
Mother Su nodded, her expression also filled with sadness and anger.
"Go and call him here." Xie said coldly.
Mother Su hesitated.
"The prince is here, madam, please tell him properly..." She knew her madam's temper and hurriedly whispered.
Mr. Xie sneered.
"He calls me mother, but what can't I say directly? I'm trying to coax him? Then what have I become?" She slapped the table, "Tell him to come, don't come in to see me, stay outside."
Kneel."
Mother Su was startled and did not dare to persuade her any more, so she hurriedly went out.
Chang Yuncheng shook the quill in his hand.
"Hey, hey, don't swing around." Qi Yue on the other side hurriedly raised his hand to block it, but still got a few ink splashes.
Chang Yuncheng looked at the dots on her face and smiled.
"Can you go and play at the same time? I'm busy." Qi Yue said with a glare.
Chang Yuncheng threw down the quill and looked over with disdain.
"Busy?" he said, "What do you have to do?"
Qi Yue balled up the paper in frustration and threw it like a basketball.
"How can I make gloves?" She rubbed her face and said sadly.
Chang Yuncheng glanced at the papers scattered on the table, which had some figures like palms and arms drawn on them.
"Gloves? Made of leather," he said.
"What leather? It's rubber." Qi Yue exhaled. She had been thinking about how rubber was made all night. She knew nothing about it except that she remembered that the sap flowed out from the tree.
Can it be used once the juice flows out and is dried?
"Isn't it just a glove to protect your hands? Sheepskin is the best, and deerskin is also good." Chang Yuncheng said.
Qi Yue suddenly raised her head and looked at him.
"What did you say?" she asked.
"Sheepskin, deerskin..." Chang Yuncheng said.
"No, the previous sentence." Qi Yue looked at him intensely.
"Gauntlet..." Chang Yuncheng said as she looked a little confused.
Qi Yue slapped the table.
There was a bang, which frightened Aru Qiuxiang, who was standing outside, to shiver, and the two looked at each other.
Are we going to quarrel again…?
They couldn't help but move closer, but they didn't hear the sound of other things breaking, nor did they hear Chang Yuncheng's angry shouts and Qi Yue's joyful voice.
"I'm so stupid, I thought wrongly." Qi Yue said with a smile, beaming, "I always thought they were surgical gloves, but I forgot the original intention of the gloves. They couldn't perform surgery for a while. The most important thing is...
You need hand protection! As long as it’s gloves that can isolate and prevent infection, that’s all. I’m always thinking about rubber!”
Chang Yuncheng couldn't understand a word she said. Anyway, this woman's words were often difficult to understand.
Qi Yue smiled and stood up to pat his arm.
"Thank you very much, so I say the prince is smart." She smiled.
Chang Yuncheng coughed when she slapped him.
Where did this stinky woman learn... what does she look like...
"Does our family have those sheepskin and deerskins you mentioned?" Qi Yue asked again.
The words "our family" slipped past his ears, and Chang Yuncheng felt a tingling sensation.
"If you don't have it, go buy it." He said.
"That's right, let's go see what the cobbler Hu San found makes first, and then let him make the gloves too..." Qi Yue said to herself, calling Aru.
Ah Ru hurriedly came in. Qiuxiang hesitated for a moment and carefully peeked in from the outside.
"Do I still have money?" she asked.
Aru was a little embarrassed when she asked her question, but she didn't dare to laugh when Chang Yuncheng was there.
"Yes. Although your monthly salary has been short before, you have replenished it in the past few months. This is not bad. You have saved a lot." Aru said in a low voice.
A pun.
Chang Yuncheng frowned and glanced at Aru.
This woman couldn't even get moon silver before...
Qi Yue didn't care about this, she cared about a lot.
"Besides, even if you don't have monthly silver, you still don't lack these few dollars." Aru said again.
The richest original hostess of this family has left almost all her private rooms to you...
"Then you bring more money and we go to Qianjin Hall to find Hu San." Qi Yue said with a smile.
"Are you going out again?" Chang Yuncheng said with a frown.
Aru, who was about to turn around in response, stopped and glanced at Qi Yue.
"You can enjoy your own space now." Qi Yue smiled and waved at him, urging Aru to go quickly.
Ah Ru stopped looking at Chang Yuncheng and turned around to go out and call Ah Hao Quezhi to come in and wait on Qi Yue to change her clothes.
Chang Yuncheng stood aside and watched Qi Yue change clothes quickly and neatly under the service of two girls.
"...with a cloak?"
"...I don't want this, it's too pretty..."
"...You should hold the stove..."
The women's chirping conversations filled the room. Chang Yuncheng watched and listened silently. For the first time, he felt that in fact, places with many women are not necessarily noisy and annoying...
The woman laughed without knowing what she said. Chang Yuncheng looked at her and slowly pursed the corners of his mouth, the arc getting wider and wider.
"Can you recognize what good leather is..." He coughed and said.
Qi Yue, who was shaking his cloak, didn't hear clearly for a moment and looked up at him.
"What?" she asked.
"Don't let people fool you..." Chang Yuncheng said with a sullen face, a trace of nervousness flashing in his eyes.
We've already talked about this, will she take the initiative to invite you?
"It's okay, Hu San has a trustworthy cobbler." Qi Yue said with a smile, raising his head and tying the belt from the magpie branch.
Chang Yuncheng took out a breath and gritted his teeth.
"I..." He opened his mouth to speak.
The girl's reply came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, Madam, please come over."
Chang Yuncheng swallowed his words.
"Go quickly." Qi Yue heard what he said and smiled at him.
Seeing the woman walking out with the two girls, Chang Yuncheng walked towards Xie's courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, the girl passed in and the door curtain was opened.
Chang Yuncheng looked over with a smile, only to see Mother Su standing up with a complicated expression, followed by a little girl.
"Your Majesty." Mother Su stopped him and whispered, "Madam, I want you to kneel down and think about your mistakes."
Chang Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, and his eyes fell on the cushion held by the little girl.
"You should have gone directly to kneel in front of your mother's memorial tablet, but..." Mrs. Xie's cold eyes swept across his face inch by inch, her eyes becoming more and more angry, "It's not even spring yet, and your face is already blooming."
There are flowers…”
Chang Yuncheng looked at Mr. Xie with confusion in his eyes.
"You first kneel down in front of my Buddha and get rid of the smile on your face from that woman, so as not to let your mother see it and be so angry that she wants to die again underground." Ms. Xie said coldly.
.
Chang Yuncheng's complexion turned livid instantly and he looked at Mr. Xie, wondering what he wanted to say.
"You don't have to tell me anything, Yuncheng, you've already lied to me once, and I don't want to hear your lies again." Ms. Xie stopped looking at him, let out a long breath, and looked at the kneeling Chang Yun.
Behind Cheng, "You don't need to say anything. You know it in your heart. You know what you are thinking when you look at that woman these past few days. Don't make excuses. You won't lie. It's written all over your face."
Clearly..."
Chang Yuncheng's face became increasingly ugly and his expression was complicated.
"Go out and kneel down. I don't want to see you like this, and I won't let your mother see you either." Xie said word by word, and pointed towards the Buddhist hall inside.
Chang Yuncheng kowtowed to her and went straight in.
After noon, Mrs. Xie lay in the room and took a nap with her eyes closed, while the little girl gently beat her legs.
Mother Su opened the curtain and came in, but stopped talking.
"You feel sorry for him, don't I feel sorry for him?" Ms. Xie spoke first, then slowly said, "Ever since I held his hand for my sister when I was seventeen, I have never thought about anything else.
I use my own eyeballs to support him, I love him more than my own eyeballs..."
Mother Su sighed.
"The prince has been kneeling for a long time. The eldest lady's side is cold, the ground is cold, and the prince refuses to use a cushion..." She whispered.
Xie opened her eyes suddenly.
"Didn't you bring the mat?" she asked, her eyes full of worry.
"The prince is not sure, so he just kneels like that." Mother Su said, "Madam, he knows he is wrong and is punishing himself. Don't you know this kid? If you are cruel to others, you will be even more cruel to yourself.
"
Xie's face had softened.
"Madam, the second lady is here." The girl outside the door said.
Mrs. Xie and Mother Su were both surprised.
The second lady was sitting in a sedan chair, accompanied by a group of women and girls, and her daughter Chang Yinglan also came over.
"Auntie." She smiled and helped her mother come over.
"It's so cold in this snowy day, why did you come out?" Mrs. Xie stretched out her hand to pull Mrs. Chen as she walked in the door, held her cold hand, and complained repeatedly, "If you have anything to say, just let me know.
It was okay in the past, were all the people who were raised doing this?"
Mrs. Chen just smiled gently, her face flushed unnaturally because of the cold.
"I've been feeling much better recently, so I wanted to go out for a walk." She said, sitting on the kang.
Mother Su directed the girls to hurriedly place the charcoal stove in front of Mrs. Chen.
"I'll do it." A slender woman wearing a crimson cross-collared coat and combed sideburns put a stove in Chen's hand.
Only then did everyone notice her, with some surprise in their eyes.
This woman was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a petite figure, a silver face, bright eyes, and a dignified manner. Although she was dressed simply, she could not hide her demeanor from a wealthy family.
Seeing everyone's attention, she lowered her head slightly and stood behind Mr. Chen.
Chang Yinglan on the side curled her lips slightly.
"This is my sister's child." Mrs. Chen said with a smile, taking the woman's hand, "Yu Fang, I have met Mrs. Hou."
Xie was very surprised when she heard this.
"Is she the Rao family's daughter?" she asked.
Rao Yufang took a few steps forward, bowed her head and saluted Mr. Xie.
"Yu Fang has met Madam." She said, her voice soft and gentle.*** (To be continued)
