Chapter 141: Sharp-eyed Old Lady Feng

Remember [Lewen] in a second. Alas, for you to read wonderfully.

"Why did you suddenly come to ask this question?" Sheng Weiqiao looked at him with a little surprise and said, "I originally planned to go to Nanfeng County, after all, my father and mother are there, and I don't have to worry about anything by their side! ”

When Gongsun heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and lowered his hand and said: "My subordinates thought that Niangniang wanted to go to Nanfeng County, and I originally planned to persuade Niangniang." ”

"I said, in the minds of your people, how unreasonable am I?" Sheng Weiqiao happened to be a little free at this time, so he said a few more words, "Am I such an inconsiderate person?"

"Niangniang thinks too much. Gongsun Xi bowed his head and said, "How dare your subordinates be disrespectful to Niangniang?"

Sheng Weiqiao said: "It's just that I don't dare to be disrespectful, and I'm still not very satisfied with it, probably because you all think that Mizhen should marry a truly virtuous and virtuous wife?"

"......" Gongsun Xi calmed down, and suddenly changed to a bright smile, "Niangniang! You are definitely careful! What is your identity?! We rough people, we have the honor to taste your craft once in our lives, and we have already died without regrets! If we have the opportunity again, wouldn't we all have to lose our fortunes and lives, and we will all live for no more than three days?!"

He has always been gloomy and accustomed to it, and suddenly smiled so hazelessly, instead of letting the sleeping crane be as radiant and energetic, it looked particularly weird, making Sheng Weiqiao feel like "is he about to pull out a knife and kill the Quartet".

"It's just boiling soup, what are you doing so seriously?" Sheng Weiqiao was stunned for a moment before he said, "You're too outward." ”

Next, whether it was her or Gongsun Xi, they lost the interest in continuing the conversation, so they hurriedly said goodbye.

After Gongsun Xi left, Sheng Weiqiao called Jinli to him and asked sadly: "Jinli, why do I think that whether it is Mizhen, my aunt, or Ah Xi, they seem to be full of fear of my cooking skills? It is said that when I made soup on Tortoiseshell Island before, I tasted it with my own mouth every time, even if I can't compare with the skills of the cooks at home, how can it not make people frightened?"

Her pampered little ancestor has the most tricky mouth, generally speaking, she thinks it is delicious, and basically no one thinks it is unpalatable, okay?

So the question is, why does she think that the soup is not unpalatable, and the people who have tasted it, such as Rong Sleeping Crane Gong Sun Xi, are still okay, and even Xuan Yu Feng, who has never tasted it at all, has changed her way to prevent her from cooking?

Jinli was a little stunned when she heard this, because the big maids who accompanied Sheng Weiqiao to Tortoiseshell Island before were Lu Jin and Lu Qi, and she was still a little maid at the time, so she didn't accompany her, so she hadn't seen Sheng Weiqiao cook at all, let alone understand the true level of this master.

After thinking about it for a while, he said cautiously: "Niangniang, could it be that you misunderstood? In fact, these people are too considerate of you, so they don't want to see you busy?"

"Well, I hope that's the case, right?" Sheng Weiqiao said unhappily, "Obviously I'm very talented! At that time, my father and Mizhen were full of praise...... No, I've tasted it myself, it's really not unpalatable, okay?!"

Jinli was afraid that she would be in a bad mood and affect the fetus, so she hurriedly led her to think of something more relaxed: "I don't know why Twelve Niang has been running to the fifth master for the past two days, and has been eating the food of the fifth master? Guess what's going on today?"

Sheng Weiqiao saw her thoughts, but still asked cooperatively, "What's wrong?"

"Today, a Twelve Niang ran to catch two mice, both of them are so big!" Hibiscus Fence compared the size to show her, "Fat, God knows where to eat and drink so plump! Twelve Niang didn't bite to death, only made it half-dead, and sent it to the fifth master!

He giggled as he spoke, obviously thinking it was very funny.

However, Sheng Weiqiao, as the owner of the Twelfth Mother, did not look good: "This bastard cat! eats and drinks mine, and enjoys the service of my maid, but what is the result? It hunted for the first time, and it didn't take it to honor me!"

Hibiscus: "......"

She weakly reminded, "Niangniang, Twelve Niang threw those two mice directly in front of the fifth master." The fifth master is not afraid of those things, where have you ever seen that kind of bloody scene? What if it scares you, but what can you do? Besides, the rat is so dirty, God knows if it is sick?"

Sheng Weiqiao thought about it, and snorted: "Forget about the mouse! Next time Twelve Niang grabs something else, if you don't come to give it to me, see how I clean it up!"

"Niangniang, don't!" said the slave, "the slave and maid have heard that cats hunt outside, and if they catch not rats, they will be snakes and insects, and even if they are fish, they will surely die soon after they leave the water...... You say that?"

"......" Sheng Weiqiao burst into tears, co-authoring this girl is just a little squeamish, and she is not even qualified to enjoy the fruits of her pet hunting?

She still has the leisure to worry about Twelve Niang here, but she doesn't know that Nanfeng County, her hometown, which is thousands of miles away, has long been in chaos.

The reason is that Old Lady Feng knew Sheng Weiqiao's speculation that Ru Ru would detour to the western frontier.

"Did Mi Zhen and his wife mention this matter to Chang'an?" After hearing this, Old Lady Feng immediately asked, "Do you know about your in-laws?"

Sheng Lanci, who came to the door, was stunned and said, "Of course I know." Mi Zhen said in her family letter, after all, if there is such a thing, you have to count on Chang'an. ”

In fact, he already planned to hide this matter from his wife, and the reason why he came over to tell his father-in-law was mainly because he was worried that if there was a war in Western Xinjiang, their logistics would not be able to keep up.

Therefore, I came to Mrs. Feng in advance to ventilate, so that I could start collecting supplies first.

After all, although compared with his daughter, his son-in-law's life is a floating cloud. But a son-in-law like Rong Sleeping Crane is really hard to find, and his daughter still likes it, so he still has to work hard to protect him.

"Then you don't expect Qiao Er to receive your handwritten letter!" I don't want Old Lady Feng to turn blue in an instant, and without saying a word, she took a sip of tea, as if she was suppressing her anger, and then said lightly, "The in-laws will definitely send someone to intercept it on the way!"

Sheng Lan was stunned and said, "Dad, what do you mean by that?"

"Let me ask you, what is the most regrettable thing in your father's life?" Old Lady Feng said hesitantly, "There should be only two things: one is the death of your biological mother, Mrs. Ai, and the other is General Zhou, right? And what did General Zhou want to do most during his lifetime? It was the Northern Expedition, which was to completely cripple Ruru! It was to accomplish a great cause that no emperor had been able to accomplish since His Majesty Emperor Muzong!!

Spit out, Old Lady Feng said expressionlessly, "Do you think that compared to Qiao'er, a granddaughter, and Mi Zhen, a grandson-in-law who has no blood with the Sheng family, and my eldest daughter who is not related to the Sheng family...... Anyway, now that you have a sister-in-law, Qiao'er is not your only child anymore, is it?!"

Sheng Lanci's heart was shocked, and she said: "Dad! You can't talk nonsense! My dad loves ...... obedient girl."

"It's not that I'm going through old accounts with you, but think about it yourself, when your father didn't know Mi Zhen's life experience, how much did he love him?" Old Lady Feng said coldly, "At that time, Qiao Er was not sensible, and she often picked her nose and eyes at Mi Zhen...... What is your father's attitude? He still spoils Qiao'er, but he is not ambiguous about Mizhen's future at all! I remember that at that time, Ning Weihou Shizi happened to live in Shengfu, and your father personally made Mizhen close to that prince!" "Think about it yourself, if it weren't for Mi Zhen not being the blood of the Sheng family, and he also had a love for Qiao Er, so that the two got married at this time, and these former disputes naturally became love. If Mi Zhen is really your outer room, growing up outside, and when you come back, you meet your sister-in-law who is always looking for trouble, can he not be aggrieved and not hold resentment?"

"How could your father not understand this truth?

"Of course, I'm not saying that your father is doing something wrong, he is your own father, and it is normal for you to have a son and heir. ”

"I just wanted to tell you that your dad doesn't value Jo'er as much as you think!"

"Not to mention in the case of Yuan'er!"

"This can't be!" Sheng Lanci's face turned pale and muttered, "Even if my father doesn't love me as much as I thought, he loves me very much." He also knows how much I value the good girl, and if the good girl has three long and two short, it is no different from asking for my life......!"

Old lady Feng looked at the dejected appearance of her son-in-law, who had always been shrewd, sighed, and said in a slower tone: "Silly boy, you are really lost in the authorities! Your father's nature, haven't you seen it clearly until now? He was born rich and noble, and when he was a teenager, he married your own mother-in-law, and the husband and wife were affectionate, and they could have lived happily and happily all their lives, just like me and your mother-in-law, and then enjoyed the family fun of children and grandchildren around their knees!"

"But how did he do it?"

"He threw away his new wife and ran to join the army, so that your own mother died in childbirth!"

"I am not saying this to provoke your father-son relationship, but to remind you: your father is not bad, he is actually very conscientious, otherwise he would not have deliberately favored you all these years to compensate for his debt to your biological mother!"

"However, he is too broad-minded, you look at me, I have been camping for many years, and I am thinking about the Feng family, at most plus his daughter and son-in-law's family, as well as his grandson and granddaughter. I don't really care about other people's lives or deaths. Even who is in charge of the house in this world, whether Ru Ru will come in, as long as the Feng family and a few of you are all good, even if Ru Ru sits in the imperial court, there is no pressure on me to pay respects!"

"But your father is not a person like me, he has been spilling blood since he was a teenager, and he is determined to serve the country!"

"He could have left Mrs. Ai at the beginning, why can't he leave Qiao'er and the three of them at this time?!"

Old lady Feng looked at her son-in-law with a heavy gaze, "I'll give you another piece of evidence, you calculate the time yourself: although it is a little farther from the west to Nanfeng County than to Chang'an, but because there is a lot of water in the south, and the east is downstream, the speed of Mizhen's letter is about the same time to reach Nanfeng County and Chang'an." ”

"Your father has been fighting horses for half his life, and his hatred with Ruru is as deep as the sea, Qiao Er's guess, he is more authoritative than you to speak!"

"He also knows that you have always valued this daughter the most, why has it been so long since your father and son received the handwritten letter, and he didn't send a word to Nanfeng County to calm your heart?"

"Is it hard for him to think that you, the son of the Hanlin Academy and who has not been on the battlefield for a day, will have more insight in this matter than him?"

"And the Xu family!"

"Two generations of the Xu family have been in Northern Xinjiang, and Ning Weihou has also been the commander of Northern Xinjiang, and he didn't even say a word to you about this kind of thing...... Don't you think it's strange at all?!"

Speaking of this, the old lady sighed a little interestedly, "This is also your father, who has always been kind to his own people, and is not good at falsification, probably decided to use Qiao Er and them as bait and intercepted your handwriting, and also asked the Xu family to shut up, he felt guilty in his heart, and he couldn't bear or be embarrassed to write to you, so he left this flaw!"

Sheng Lanci trembled all over, and after a while, she choked up: "Dad, I'm ...... now I'm in a mess right now! I really don't have the heart to talk about other things at this time! You...... You just say, good girl...... She...... We haven't run out of chances yet, let that kid be safe?!"
