Chapter XXVI: The Mother-Daughter War
It was none other than Shen Chunlan. Mother Ning knew that she was out of shape, so she was busy giving Shen Chunlan a salute. was about to turn around and open the curtain for her, but Shen Chunlan picked the curtain and entered the door by herself.
"Sister Chun?" The second lady was slightly surprised when she saw her daughter enter the door. The hand holding the Ru kiln angry green lotus leaf picture teacup paused in mid-air.
With a little indignation on her face, Shen Chunlan walked up to the second lady and asked, "Is my mother really as femme fatale as everyone said, to harm the eldest brother?"
Shen Chunlan's voice was very loud, although there were people from the second lady inside and outside here, it was inevitable that there would be ears on the wall. The second lady was afraid that Chunlan's unknowingly shouting would reveal the secret, and secondly, she was yelled at by her daughter because she broke the trick and yelled at her like this, so she became angry and ashamed. A slap slapped on the small kang table carved at the four corners of the pear blossom wood, accompanied by the crisp sound of the teapot and tea bowl colliding on the table, and shouted, "Bastard thing, how can you talk to your mother?"
Shen Chunlan stared at the second lady and sneered, "For mothers, is this how you are a mother to others? Since we were children, my grandmother has taught us to be brothers, friends, brothers, sisters, and a family that is united and loves each other. Didn't your grandfather teach you when you were young?"
"You bastard!" Second Lady Shen was furious and threw a tea bowl over. Chunlan didn't move, just waited for the teacup to fall on her body and splash a tea stain. The second lady's expression moved slightly, obviously feeling a little distressed about her daughter. But in a blink of an eye, when I saw her stalking her neck, I couldn't get angry again.
What is she trying to harm the long house for? It's not for the sake of this little brute in front of her whose IQ and EQ have lowered the level of the entire family! She doesn't appreciate it, and she is still talking to herself here. Hey, I'm really angry! Second Mrs. Shen's face was flushed, and her eyes were full of tears. Angry lips trembled.
Shen Chunlan was impulsive, and she regretted it a little when she saw her mother like this. His expression softened, "Mother, don't let Imperial Doctor Qin harm the eldest brother, otherwise I will go and tell my grandmother." ”
"You're sick!" Second Lady Shen couldn't help but jump violently, and came up and pulled Shen Chunlan's ears, "Can't you tell the difference between relatives and distances? For the sake of a cousin, you want to push your mother into the abyss?"
Shen Chunlan was pinched in pain, grinning and trying to hide. But the more she dodged, the stronger the second lady's hand became. In the end, she had to die down, and she couldn't help but cry out.
Mother Ning, who was stunned on the side, quickly regained her senses and stepped forward to pull the second lady, "Madame, don't be angry, if you have something to say." The girl is still young, this is smashing the tea bowl again, and it is pulling her ears, don't frighten the sister. ”
The second lady had never been so angry with Shen Chunlan, and when she saw her crying sadly, her heart softened for a while, and the strength of her hand loosened slightly. Seeing this, Mother Ning hurriedly pulled Shen Chunlan out and coaxed her in her arms.
The mother and daughter sat on the soft couch of Hibiscus and stared angrily, and the other hid in Mother Ning's arms and sobbed. The little girl who was waiting in the room didn't dare to gasp, and quickly stepped forward to clean up the tea cup fragments on the ground silently.
Shen Chunlan was tired of crying, and Ning's mother led her into the cabinet to change into clean clothes and clean her face, before she finally calmed down and sat opposite the second lady.
The second lady looked at her daughter who was gradually showing her coquettish posture, and said seriously, "Chun'er, do you know that my mother has done all this for you." ”
Shen Chunlan wanted to refute, if she said that she would harm others for her, she really couldn't afford it. But in view of the terrible appearance of the second lady Fang Cai, she had no choice but to lower her head and bite her lip without speaking.
Second Mrs. Shen looked at her daughter like this, thinking that she had listened to it. So he continued, "Although you are also the concubine of the Hou Mansion, how can you compare with your eldest sister? Because she is the concubine of the Marquis of Ning Yuan, she can marry into the Ying Prince's Mansion and enjoy the glory and wealth. But what about you, no matter how powerful your father is, he is just a third-grade waiter, and you are just the daughter of a third-grade official. Even if you marry into the princess's mansion, you can't be the princess's wife. ”
"Mother, my daughter doesn't care if she can be Mrs. Yipin. It's simple, just have a happier life. Shen Chunlan couldn't help but interject.
Second Lady Shen was furious, and her eyes widened. "If you marry in the future, you can't be the ruler of the inner house, and I don't know how many people will bully you and calculate you!"
Shen Chunlan didn't care, and the second lady said, "When your father and I are alive, I can ensure that you have a powerful backer." But what will we do in a hundred years? You don't have a brother, and if we're gone, there's no one in your mother's family. Who will support you in the future? Do you think that being someone else's daughter-in-law can still be as comfortable as when you were a girl?"
"Mother, what are you talking about?" Shen Chunlan suddenly heard the mention of getting married, her face turned crimson, and she couldn't help complaining.
The second lady hugged her in her arms, "Silly child, you are not young anymore." Seeing that it is about to be over, there are some things that should be understood. ”
Chunlan knew that as soon as the girls had passed the ceremony, they would start to discuss marriage. She couldn't avoid it, and she was quiet for a while, listening to the second lady.
"Your third aunt intends to match you and Brother Xu, although it is a good thing to be close to each other. Your third aunt is a kind person, and she will definitely not treat you badly. Although Brother Xu's character and appearance are not outstanding, he is also a good one. But your third uncle has not learned or learned since he was a child, and now he is just a petty official, relying on your eldest uncle's breath to live in the Yongyi Marquis Mansion. If you get married, you will definitely live by people's faces. ”
Chunlan interrupted the second lady's words, "Does my mother want me to marry a well-connected family as the daughter of the Marquis of Ning Yuan in the future?"
"Hmm. The second lady nodded, glad that her daughter had finally opened her mind.
Shen Chunlan stood up, "Wealth has its own destiny, and my mother shouldn't calculate others to earn a future for her daughter." As he spoke, he saluted the second lady. "The daughter made her mother unhappy, and it was her daughter who was unfilial. After saying this conversation, I think my mother must be tired, and my daughter will retire first, so you can rest well. ”
After Shen Chunlan finished speaking, without waiting for the second lady to react, she walked out. The second lady angrily picked up another teacup and threw it in the direction of Shen Chunlan.
At this time, Shen Miaolan was leaning crookedly on the soft couch of Hibiscus, took the orange peeled by Yunying, and asked, "What do you say about the second room?"
Yun Ying looked proud, "The girl calculated just right, and the second girl happened to hear it all." It's a good quarrel with the second lady. ”
Shen Miaolan nodded with satisfaction. Pointing to the orchid, pinched a petal of orange and put it in his mouth. The fragrance of oranges suddenly overflowed my lips, and it was really delicious.
"Now, we don't have to worry about the eldest brother's medicine can't be changed. During the time I went to my grandmother's house, the third sister will definitely help me take good care of my eldest brother. ”
