"Kill it, kill it immediately." Feng Xian pointed at the big rooster and screamed, expressing her anger at the attack on her master. Suddenly, she heard Xu Ranyun snort coldly beside her and said, "Wait."
"ah?"
The servants all stopped and looked at Xu Ranyun in confusion, thinking that this rooster had committed such a "serious crime", but Grandma Yun wanted to let it go? When did this master become so kind? The way she dealt with the Xue family's daughter-in-law just now was clearly like thunder and lightning.
But they soon understood. Xu Ranyun smiled sinisterly and said leisurely, "Didn't you say that Grandma wanted fresh ingredients from her yard? I think this rooster is pretty good. It's big and strong. I think it's good for stewing soup or grilling. You can send it to Chunfeng Garden."
After saying that, she turned and left. It was already very embarrassing for a grandmother in the house to be in such a state in the kitchen. If she stayed any longer, Xu Ranyun wondered if she would kill herself with a bowl of tofu.
She left quickly and cleanly, but left the difficult problem to the kitchen maids. When they were looking at each other and wondering which unlucky person to find to deliver the rooster to Chunfeng Garden, they suddenly heard the Xue family's wife behind them calmly say, "I happened to pass by Chunfeng Garden on my way to the laundry room. I'll take the rooster to Grandma."
The maids all knew that the daughter-in-law of the Xue family was going to complain to the grandmother. If she sent her there, the grandmother would be prepared, and the beast would not be able to make any waves in Chunfeng Garden. But even though they knew that this went against the original intention of grandmother Yun, who dared to stop her? If the daughter-in-law of the Xue family twisted her mouth in front of the grandmother, the consequences would be...Grandma Yun was not easy to mess with, and the grandmother was not a good person either.
So everyone looked at her with tacit approval as she left with the rooster. Xu Ranyun just forgot about the Xue family's wife because he didn't care. As a result, he made a wrong move and didn't see the wonderful scene of Chunfeng Garden being disturbed by a rooster. It must be said that luck is sometimes so annoying.
"Your grandfather is harboring evil intentions. He gave me the key to his private vault, and immediately drew the attention of countless people in the mansion to me. Haha! Now I have become the target of public criticism. Your Grandma Yun must hate me to the core as well."
In Chunfeng Garden. Su Nuannuan looked helplessly at the bunch of shining keys in her hand and said with a sad face.
Honglian couldn't bear to see her grandmother like this, it represented so much trust and love from the grandfather. Others couldn't even hope for it, but she despised it, so she shook her head and smiled, "Grandma used to miss this bunch of keys so much that it gave her a headache, but now she treats it as a hot potato. If you don't like it, then why did you accept it when the grandfather gave it to you?"
"I... I was fooled by your master, wasn't I?" Su Nuannuan patted the key and said with a bitter face, "He said there were so many gold, silver and jewelry in the warehouse. So many silks and medicinal materials, so many paintings and calligraphy and cultural relics... This... This man is always greedy. Is it easy for me to resist so many temptations? After finally resisting them, he threw out some sayings about the deep sea in the mansion of a nobleman. There are too many miserable people. He said that he, as the master, has no time to care about the sufferings of the world, and so many gold and silver are rotting in the warehouse. I might as well use them where they should be used. I think it's not bad to do good deeds. Then he said that I don't have the power to manage the household now, and I don't have to worry about food and clothing because he didn't let me down. Once he goes on a long trip or doesn't come back for two or three years, I don't know what will happen to me. How can I help others? After talking and talking, I fell into his trap and took the key. Now I think it's a hot potato, but it's too late."
The more he spoke, the angrier he got. Xiangyun just added fuel to the fire, "But grandma, what Grandpa said was not wrong. If Grandpa was wrong, you wouldn't have taken the key, right?"
"That's true, but the problem is, he only described to me the bright future after taking over the keys, but didn't mention a word about the disadvantages of taking over the keys. I... I let my greed cloud my reason at the time, so I just listened to him." At this point, he couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry, and slammed the table and shouted: "You are not allowed to call him grandpa in the future, just call him a big liar... Ouch, my hand, it hurts so much."
Honglian was both angry and amused. She looked at Cong'erhua who was learning to weave silk not far away and shook her head helplessly, saying, "Grandma, you are the master, can you be more cautious? What do you say? Pay attention to the impact. Yes, pay attention to the impact. Cong'erhua is still young. What if she takes your words seriously..."
Before he could finish, Su Nuannuan shouted, "If you take it seriously, then take it seriously. What's the matter? Your grandfather is a big liar. You allow him to do it, but I can't say anything?"
Xiangyun whispered, "But grandma, you are being too naive. After all, it's a good thing that the key is in your hands. Master said that you can use whatever you want in the storeroom, and you have to take good care of the second young lady in the future. This is trust and love for you, but you are here to exclude him. Even I feel it's unfair."
Su Nuannuan is not a stubborn person. Thinking about it carefully, she seems to be a little hypocritical. It is obviously a good thing, but she is unwilling to appreciate it. If this is a novel, it will affect the author's subscription if she is the heroine. But... She sighed deeply, shook her head and smiled bitterly, "But I really don't want to fight with those women. My highest dream in this life is not a man, not power and status, but to turn a deaf ear to the outside world and concentrate on eating. If a foodie like me is involved in a house fight, won't I die without a trace?"
"But grandma, even if you don't take the key, can you live a leisurely and comfortable life? I don't think so." Honglian smiled and burst the bubble of Su Nuannuan's dream: "You were born in a wealthy family, and married into one of the most powerful families in the capital. Now you have the trust of the master and the favor of the old lady. I don't know how many people are jealous. Do you go and tell them that I don't want to fight, I just want to be a quiet foodie, and they will believe it? Even if they really believe it, you, a quiet foodie, have already won the favor of the elders and the master in the mansion, and have become a stumbling block for their advancement. Do you expect them to let you go? Isn't this a daydream?"
"Honglian..." Su Nuannuan called out, looking at her good girl in silence: "Please don't tell the truth, okay? Are you the master or am I the master? Why do you, a girl, have such knowledge?"
"Don't be sad, grandma. I am just helping you to understand the situation." Honglian quickly took out a handkerchief and handed it to Su Nuannuan: "So, grandma, don't say such things in the future, otherwise you will really die without a trace of armor left."
