MTL - A Scumbag Father Doting on His Concubine-Chapter 25 Worship the old man
In the small ancestral hall in the northwest corner of the garden, Mr. Xie’s memorial tablet has been invited to enter. Fresh fruits, flowers and some snacks are enshrined on the confession table.
When the auspicious time was calculated by Qin Tianjian, the solemnly dressed Lord Xie Hou personally helped Mrs. Xie into the small ancestral hall, and the others followed.
After entering the ancestral hall, suddenly a servant woman staggered and fell towards Mrs. Su, and wiped something on Mrs. Su's clothes in her hand.
Su Clan was pushed back by her involuntarily, but thanks to Bai Xiang, she hurriedly supported her.
Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie turned and looked over when they heard the movement.
Lord Xie was displeased: "What's going on?"
Su Shi hurriedly said: "It's nothing, this servant suddenly fell over and bumped into me for some reason, I couldn't stand still, it's okay."
Lord Xie Hou gave the servant woman a hard look and said, "You unruly thing, this is where you play wild? Get out!"
"Yes, yes" the servant woman panicked and hurriedly retreated.
Before leaving, she exchanged glances with Madam Qi and nodded slightly.
Nanny Qi who was supporting Qi gently tugged on Qi's sleeve, Qi looked up at her and smiled.
That **** of the Su family, after today, the old lady is still protecting her!
The sacrificial dishes were passed in from the outside one by one, the Qi family passed it to the Su family, the Su family passed it to Xie Houye, and Xie Houye and the old lady Xie made an offering in front of the old lady Xie's spiritual tablet.
After passing the sacrificial dishes, the children and grandchildren kowtow, and then burn paper and burn incense to offer wine, comfort the spirit of the old man in heaven, and pray for the old man to bless the children and grandchildren, and the ceremony is completed.
When passing the dishes, Su suddenly said in surprise: "Sister, what's wrong with your clothes? Why does it look dirty!"
The servant woman prepared a pig gallbladder filled with fresh chicken blood. If the blood is applied on Su Shi's clothes, it can cure Su Shi of a crime of disrespect. For such an important event as sacrifice, it is very unlucky to have blood on the clothes, and it also means that the Su family does not care about this matter at all, and is disrespectful to Mrs. Xie, otherwise, how could they not even know that the clothes are stained with blood?
Lord Hou will definitely be furious, and the old lady will also be angry and dissatisfied in her heart. If they take advantage of the dissatisfaction between the two of them, they will do something, and the custody of Su will never get up again.
Mrs. Qi believed in Nanny Qi very much, and also believed that Mrs. Su's clothes must be stained with blood. Therefore, although Xie Yunshu and Baixiang always followed Mrs. Su to block her view and she never saw it with her own eyes, she did not doubt it at all.
She told the maid to strike at the waist, Su Shi probably didn't realize it.
Qi's words caused Master Xie and others to look at Su, Su was taken aback, Xie Yunshu looked at her, and hurriedly said: "Mother's clothes are a little wet, it should be because of the clumsy servant just now. Accidentally spilled soup."
Su tilted his head to check carefully, and smiled: "Really, it doesn't matter, it's important to pay homage to father!"
Old lady Xie and Master Xie also saw that Su's left waist was wet with a slap-sized patch. Fortunately, today he was wearing clothes with a restrained look, so it was not obvious, otherwise it would be too unsightly.
The old lady Xie frowned dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you choose a more stable servant woman for such an important event today? What kind of words do you say like this!"
The old lady thought in her heart, it seems that this housekeeper of the Qi family is really not good at all, and he is a moth.
Hearing what my mother said, Mr. Xie Hou couldn't help but cast a reproachful glance at Qi, feeling a little dissatisfied.
Aren't all the arrangements today made by the Qi family?
Ms. Qi was full of aggrieved, and finally saw clearly at this time, where is the blood stain on Mrs. Su's clothes? It was clearly wet like splashed water!
She glanced at Nanny Qi in surprise and anger, and Nanny Qi was already dumbfounded! She doesn't know either
Then how does the Tang family work? Didn't we say it was done?
Nanny Qi couldn't let the Qi family take the blame, so she quickly laughed with her: "It's all the old slave's fault. The original arrangement was for Song Su, who was steady and neat, but she was not feeling well yesterday, so it was replaced by Tang Er's family." Yes, it's good for the old slave to look at the past of the Tang Er family, but today there is an accident, please forgive me, old lady and Lord Hou."
Old lady Xie waved her hand: "That's all, it's important!"
"Mother said yes!"
Everyone still worshiped the old lady Xie according to the procedure.
After offering incense and burning paper and kowtow, Mrs. Xie told the servants who were serving here to take good care of the candlelight tribute, and led everyone out with Master Xie, wiping away tears.
Everyone accompanied Mrs. Xie back to Songhe Hall.
The old lady thought of the old man again, and Lord Xie also thought of his father who hadn't had time to fulfill his filial piety. Both mother and son were in a low mood, so the others naturally wanted to accompany them.
The Su family was also very sad. When the father-in-law was alive, he treated her mother and daughter very well.
Xie Yunshu is not the original owner, so she doesn't have so many emotions, but she also knows that her grandfather actually loves her.
Mrs. Xie couldn't help thinking of how hard the old man had been before and after the old man's death. Today, when he worshiped the old man, there were servants who dared to attack Su's. Old lady Xie couldn't help but feel angry.
It's a coincidence, but it's too coincidental.
Why is it the Su family?
The old lady Xie sighed: "Ah Zhong, this is fate, don't be sad. In fact, your father's and my life are worth it. Even if you are not around, we will be there with Yunniang It’s not hard. It’s much better than those homes that are noisy every day!”
Master Xie took a gentle look at Su Shi, felt relieved, and nodded with a forced smile: "Mother is right, mother, don't be sad. From now on, my son will honor you with his father's share."
Old lady Xie couldn't help laughing: "You are really childish!"
Lord Xie Hou also laughed: "Son, this is really sincere!"
The old lady Xie said: "From now on, we should live a good life, Mrs. Qi, first, that mother Zhang was stirring up the wind and rain with me, and next to Shu'er, there was Zi He who somehow escaped without a trace. The maids around Shi and Shu'er don't know the protector outside, and someone can make a big deal like paying homage to your father-in-law today, I think you're too out of control in this mansion!"
Mrs. Qi suddenly raised her head, suddenly feeling bad—
Later, she heard the old lady continue: "I think you can't do it alone, besides, Yunniang is also the eldest lady, and she shouldn't be left alone for the housekeeping business. The two of you are discussing housekeeping together in the future." !"
Old lady Xie originally didn't intend to mention this matter today, but the accident that happened during the worship today stepped on her bottom line.
Nurse Ling is familiar with the anecdotes of the great families in the capital, but she has told her a lot. She listens with gusto, learns a lot, and understands a lot.
The things Aunt Ling said are very reasonable, isn’t it? The slaves around the master are often the ones who are responsible, such as Aunt Qi today.
