Chapter 51: The Inner House

"It's good that the young lady is satisfied. Mama Qi didn't dare to look at Situ Ningbing, staggered her gaze and said quickly: "You rest, the old slave has retired." ”

Seeing that Mama Qi was gone, several big girls who had been locked up all night and had a fire in their stomachs finally had a chance to vent. In the past, this was all done by Pity, but today he was preempted by Hongluan, and complained to Situ Ningbing like a cannon in his mouth: "This is too bullying! Miss, you are the daughter-in-law of the Li family, and the main courtyard does not allow you to live in the side courtyard, which is simply not to put Your Majesty and our house in your eyes! There are also nobles like the Meng family, they are obviously your guests, they are shameless to rob, this is accurate, Miss, your mother's family can't save the fire in Chang'an Yuanshui, and they bully us to death!" The more Hongluan spoke, the more angry he became, rolling up his sleeves and having a desperate posture of being ready to rush out to find someone at any time.

"Shut up, I'm getting more and more presumptuous, and I don't look at what kind of place this is for you to talk nonsense!" Mother Xue scolded like a basin of cold water poured on Hongluan's head, closed her mouth stupidly, and took a step back with her head drooping.

Seeing that she was honest, Mother Xue turned her head and persuaded Situ Ningbing again: "Miss, don't be upset if your mother has a few words to say." Although Hongluan's words were presumptuous, there was one sentence that she was right. This is Longxi, not Chang'an, you are the daughter-in-law of the Li family when you marry, no better than when you were a girl at home, everything can be done by temperament. You had such a stiff quarrel with the prince last night, Mrs. is distressed that her son must give you a color, she is the elder of the Li family's inner house, and she has the final say, this is just the beginning and I don't know how many small shoes to wear for you, you just listen to your mother's advice, first put your body and Mrs. Shizi to be soft, and then stand in this inner house, don't get along with yourself. ”

Situ Ningbing looked at Mother Xue's eyes full of worry, and smiled slightly: "Mom, don't worry, I have my own measure." ”

As soon as Mother Xue heard it, she knew that this was perfunctory to her, and she wanted to persuade her again, but the words finally turned into a sigh.

When Mama Qi came out of Lang Yuxuan, she looked behind her with palpitations, and secretly wondered, she really asked the prince to say right, the young lady didn't say a word about the temporary residence in the courtyard. I don't know what she thinks, the main room where the eight sedan chairs are married into the door is not allowed to live in the main courtyard and is placed in the side courtyard, and the others have already made a fuss, she is stunned as if nothing is happening, how can she have such a good temper? Mama Qi couldn't understand that her heart became more and more uneasy, just like a knife hanging on her head, and she didn't know when it would fall!

But before Situ Ningbing's knife fell, Mrs. Wang's little shoes had already arrived.

"Miss, I'm going to smash the kitchen!" saw mercy pointing to a table of lunch brought from the kitchen. These dishes look exquisite on the surface, but they can't be eaten with a pair of chopsticks, either salty can be fatal, or sweet can lose teeth, even the bowl of white rice is half-baked, how could her young lady ever suffer this kind of anger!

Situ Ningbing was as calm as ever, she was not angry when she looked at the table full of dishes that could be seen and could not be eaten, she waved her hands and smiled angrily: "Don't be so impulsive, if you smash the kitchen, you will be angry, but we will also be hungry together, and I won't use the stupid trick of injuring the enemy by injuring 10,000 and losing 8,000." ”

Hongluan, who was also so angry that he wanted to turn over the table, heard that his heart moved, and he put away his angry face and came to Situ Ningbing with a flattering smile: "That's, Miss, you are so smart, there must be a better way, right?"

Looking at her expectant expression, Situ Ningbing curled his lips and smiled, "I'm stupid and can't think of any good way, this food can't be eaten, so I can only go to Mr. to eat." With that, he got up and walked out.

Hongluan blinked his eyes, gradually came back to his senses, clapped his hands and smiled: "Miss is Gao Ming!" excitedly followed Situ Ningbing to Liufangtang to eat.

The location of Liufang Hall is close to the center of Anguo Mansion, not far from Wang's Jin Yingtang and Li Shuning's Baoyue Xuan, it is a five-entry courtyard, extremely spacious, walk into the courtyard but see the strange flowers, different grasses, mountains and rocks are arranged exquisitely and elegantly, every step is a scene, everywhere can be painted, which shows Wang's respect for the Meng family.

The maid guarding the door of the bright room in the main courtyard saw Situ Ningbing coming, and hurriedly bowed, and turned around to go in to report.

Situ Ningbing had already raised his voice and said, "Sir, have you eaten? ”

There was no sound in the bright room, and after a while, the jade bead curtain hanging on the door was closed, and the Meng family personally greeted him, "I didn't know that Miss was coming, I have already used half of it." If the young lady doesn't dislike it, add a few more dishes, and I'll accompany you for a drink. ”

Situ Ningbing also raised his feet and walked into the house, and said with a smile: "Then bother Mr." ”

"Miss is willing to come and talk to me, I'm too happy to talk about it, why bother?" Meng asked Situ Ningbing to sit at a red sandalwood moire round table in the east room.

"Miss came at a good time, we all talked about the boring days in the courtyard of the deep house this morning, if we were to taste words and paintings with Miss and the time would pass faster, now it is like going to prison. Aunt Yun beside the Meng family added dishes and chopsticks to Situ Ningbing and quipped.

What she said was a joke, but Situ Ningbing took it a little seriously, and smiled apologetically at Meng and the others, "It's me who wronged Mr., you are a character who travels all over the world, but because I am trapped in this deep mansion compound, I am really ashamed." ”

"Where's the young lady, the scholar died for the confidant, I have been ruined since I was fifteen years old, and I have been displaced since I was fifteen years old..."Later, the tone unconsciously brought a little sadness, "Toad Palace Zhegui has infinite scenery on the surface, but in fact, every step is thrilling, on the one hand, I have to be with the traitor to wrongdoer, on the other hand, I have to worry that my identity will be exposed, and I often see Gao Tang crying and crying in midnight dreams, and I always wake up in the nightmare of dying before revenge!" After four years of such fear, Yang Xiang was finally overthrown, and the grievances were washed away, and then the rectification of the dynasty was constantly promoted, although there were countless colleagues in the official fortune and protΓ©gΓ©s, none of them could be introduced as a confidant, and then I resigned and traveled all over the world, even though I lived a chic and wanton life, it was a pity that it was difficult to meet a confidant. I always thought that even if my life was bumpy, I had no regrets, and I didn't realize it until I met Miss..."The following words Meng didn't say any more, just lowered his eyes and smiled slightly, hiding the waves in his eyes.

Situ Ningbing held her hand and said solemnly: "Sir's mind is also mine, I will do my best to help Mr. get what he wants!"

The two of them were drinking and chatting here, but Jin Yingge was like a dark cloud. The maids waiting in the main room all held their breath and hung their heads, and Wang sat on a pear blossom wood swastika arhat bed facing south with a gloomy face. I only heard the sound of "bang" and the sound of celadon breaking, which was already the second cup she had smashed.

"Madam," Mama Qi persuaded on the side: "The prince has already told you, don't mess with the young lady and don't make yourself unhappy, why are you bothered?" said as she took the freshly brewed tea from the maid's hand and handed it to Wang, "She has too many eyes, how can you play with her with such a straight personality?"

Wang took the teacup and took a deep sip before relieving his breath, "How can I not know what Mama said? It's just that I really can't swallow this breath in my heart! Jiayi grew up in the palm of my hand since she was a child, when did she suffer this kind of anger? ! A good face made her scratch her face! That is, in our family, if she had changed the behavior of the people next to her, she would have knelt down in the ancestral hall a long time ago! Now I, as a mother-in-law, am only hungry for her to teach her a lesson, and she will not be taught, and she even dares to slap me in the face like this!"

"And hit it accurately and hard. Mama Qi said secretly in her heart.

Wang said that he was excited, and his hand was raised, and the white porcelain teacup he had just brought was beaten again. Mama Qi hurriedly continued to persuade patiently: "Madam, why are you angry about this little thing in the future? The young lady has just entered the mansion, and her temper when she was a girl can't be restrained for a while, why do you want to frustrate her spirit at this time? ”

"Hmph, how dare I put a score in front of her, don't forget that the Meng family is still living in our house!" Regarding Mama Qi's remarks, the Wang family was a little unimpressed.

Mama Qi rolled her eyes and decided to change her strategy, if she couldn't persuade her, then she would coax it. "No matter how noble the Meng family is, they are guests after all, it is not good to meddle in the affairs of our inner courtyard, and when the time comes, you will bring in a noble concubine for the prince on the grounds that you have no children, who can say anything?"

Wang thought about it, and suddenly felt like an initiation, "That's right, no matter how noble a woman's status is, if she doesn't have an heir, everything is in vain!

Mama Qi quietly breathed a sigh of relief, not wanting her to completely go down this breath, Wang had already screamed. "No, won't my son have no son-in-law? The title of Duke of Anguo will finally fall to the concubine?!" Wang's background determines the deep-rooted concept of concubine in her bones, which is even more unbearable for her than Situ Ningbing to inherit the family business.

"It's not as bad as you think. Mama Qi continued to coax: "Not to mention that the prince and the young lady are still young at this time, and if they have a bad temper, maybe they will be able to respect each other like guests in the future? ”

The Wang family didn't listen to her words at all, she originally looked down on Situ Ningbing in her heart, and when she thought that her son might not have a son-in-law, she secretly calculated in her heart: "That girl from the Situ family is so pale, she doesn't look like she has a long life, and she can't keep it...... I'll pick it up carefully for Jiayi first, and I'll ...... it when the time comes."

Seeing that Mama Qi frowned and pondered, she was not sure whether she listened or not, and couldn't help but call out loud: "Madam?"

Wang came back to his senses and smiled reluctantly at the corners of his mouth, "Oh, what Mama said is that I'm too anxious." ”

Seeing that she was persuaded like this, Mama Qi was a little unaccustomed to it. Wang's is what she grew up watching since she was a child, and she is very stubborn and admits death, unless she is a person who is sincerely respected, it is not so easy to listen to the persuasion of others, at this time she is unusual, don't think of any crooked ideas?
