Chapter 55: Backstage Firm
The old lady has always had nothing to say, Rui Hong has followed her for many years, so she naturally understands the old lady's heart, but the other ladies and ladies don't like this overly serious old lady, every time she follows, she either frowns sadly, or finds an excuse to leave.

But this young lady followed silently all the way, with a shallow smile on her face, neither leaving nor showing a sad look, which was very different.
Ruihong couldn't help but peek at her curiously.
I saw that her skin was whiter than snow, and she was translucent, with a pair of autumn eyes hanging down, and her long, curly eyelashes casting a faint shadow in the sun. The pink lips are slightly raised, and there is a mole on the upturned nose, which seems to be the finishing touch, making the whole face glow.
Beauty alone is not enough to attract people, Rui Hong always feels that this lady has a faint momentum, and under her beautiful face, there seems to be a flame, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.
Rui Hong has seen many ladies and ladies with the old lady, but it is rare to see such a dazzling lady as the eldest lady.
At the same time, the old lady was also secretly looking at this granddaughter-in-law, she hinted to Rui Hong, let the little girl who led the way make a few more turns, so that the walking time will be long, ordinary people can't stand the suffocation of the quiet, but Jing Yan can.
The old lady couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.
In Fulong Xuan, Mrs. Gao sat on the carved chaise longue with red sandalwood agate inlaid with porcelain tiles, leaning on her body, leaning on a pillow on her back, and a satin backrest on the side. The couch is covered with a large satin mattress with dark red auspicious clouds, and on the right hand side is a carved lacquered sputum box.
After sitting down, the old lady closed her eyes slightly, Nian An lowered her head, and lightly handed over a warm, steaming handkerchief to wipe the old lady's hands, repeatedly, and wiped it five times before it was clean; On the side, Sining took out a cloisonné filigree like a porcelain vase, with a pipe on it, followed by a gilded duck's beak.
Jing Yan looked at it with her spare eyes and found that it was a hookah.
Sining held the hookah, put the duck beak to the old lady's mouth, and waited quietly. At the same time, Rui Hong half-knelt beside the old lady, took out the delicate paper medium made of straw paper that had been prepared long ago, and lit the hookah pipe very skillfully in a complicated way, the movement was light and pleasing to the eye, I don't know how long I practiced behind the scenes.
In the Shangyuan Dynasty, those who could smoke hookah were either rich or expensive. Because this kind of hookah smoked among nobles is not produced in China, most of it comes from foreign tribute. What's more, in order to make the action of smoking hookah more elegant and in line with the upper class social, it is often necessary to practice the movements of paper media for a long time, and the hookah is even more valuable.
Mrs. Gao is a woman, and if she can take such an action, she must be a good person.
Gao took a sip, then let out a long sigh, and buried the intoxicating tobacco deep into his internal organs, as if a bitter and fragrant feeling had flowed into his brain, and then narrowed his eyes slightly.
There was a faint smell in the room.
Jing Yan knelt under the hall, looking at his nose and nose from beginning to end, without saying a word, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he was extremely obedient. The old lady saw it in her eyes, nodded silently and said, "Get up." ”
"Yes, grandmother." After Jing Yan stood up, she obediently stood aside, although her legs were already very sore, but she didn't show the slightest on her face.
Rui Hong saw that the old lady's eyebrows nodded a little, so she willingly took out a chair for Jing Yan to sit down.
In the magnificent Fulong Xuan, the old lady is like a solemn Buddha statue, which makes people feel a little frightened. Her voice fell from the top of her head, not the usual kindness of an old man, but full of majesty.
"Do you know why I'm here?"
Jing Yan's heart trembled, the Gao clan at this moment was completely different from Fang Cai in the main hall, and his tone had a slight interrogation meaning.
Gao's is different from Ji's, she was born in a serious wealthy aristocracy, she is used to seeing strong winds and waves, and she doesn't look at the intrigues in the backyard at all.
"Yes, Jing Yan understands that her husband wrote a letter to her grandmother."
Wang Song learned the news that Zheng Guogong's Mansion had repaired the Cuizhu Nunnery for the old lady, so he repaired a book and invited the old lady to come here as a guest.
Jing Yan was in the back house, and there were many things that Wang Song was inconvenient to interfere in, so he thought of inviting this old lady with the most majestic status to come over as Jing Yan's backer.
It's just that whether you can become a backer or not depends on Jing Yan's ability.
Sure enough, the old lady admired her honesty very much, but her face was still cold: "The back house is a place of right and wrong, what's the matter, you want me an old woman to protect you?" I don't have any ability at all, what are you still doing here! ”
This was said very seriously, and even Ruihong, who had always been accustomed to seeing the old lady's face, felt frightened.
Jing Yan's breath was very slight, and she clearly felt the fierce aura of the other party. She thought that she had been in the Li Mansion and accompanied Li Yingying to watch a beast show in an exotic land.
At that time, in order to highlight the effect of the performance, the animal trainer once invited two domestic servants to participate in the performance.
I only remember that the shiny lion rushed to the servant, one of whom was already frightened, and the other, standing upright, with his eyes closed, as if he had seen nothing.
Because everything is just a façade, as long as there is an animal trainer, the lion will not bite. Similarly, as long as she is still the eldest young lady of the palace and the second lady of the Jing family, this high-ranking old lady will not do anything to her immediately, all of this is just a temptation.
"Back to my grandmother's words, although Yan'er has not been in the house for a long time, she is also an understanding person, all of this is for my husband. Everyone has a heart to protect his shortcomings, and his husband is honest and kind, but this is not the reason why he can be a mermaid! Jing Yan is willing to do everything for his sake. ”
These words, every word is sincere, every sentence is sincere, and there is no concealment at all, which surprised Ruihong. Such a woman is rare in the end.
As the eldest young master, Wang Song is the second most important person in the old lady's heart, except for the eldest grandson Wang Chao. Under the strict teachings of Wang Chao, the eldest son of Zheng Guogong, he usually does not talk much, and his communication with others seems to be separated by a mountain.
And Wang Song is different, he is gentle and elegant at home, brave and resolute on the battlefield, and his hearty personality makes the old lady love him very much, and even feels that this grandson is more like himself back then. Later, Wang Songxia was paralyzed, and the old lady suddenly felt very pity, but she also took more care of the child.
How could she not know that little bit of Ji's thoughts. Although Wang Luan is also her grandson, she will never allow this kind of behavior to seize her position through conspiracy to exist!
In an instant, she had already made a decision, and her tone became softer: "Okay child, I understand your distress. ”
"But all of this is because of Song'er, if your mind is not on Song'er, but on the Wang family's property, I will definitely not allow you to live even a second longer!"
Chu Qing and Bai Li saw Jing Yan walking out of Fulong Xuan, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask. This unpredictable old lady looks really terrible, but fortunately, the second lady was still intact when she came out.
Jing Yan looked at their worried appearance, and couldn't help laughing, her thin eyebrows were curved, bright and bright.
"Second Miss, I'm really scared to death of the slave! Let's hurry back to the Academy, we're tired all morning! ”
Jing Yan shook his head, suddenly looked in the other direction, and said faintly: "Lijin Pavilion, it should have been arranged, right?" ”
Chu Qing nodded: "Yes, the master is very anxious Aunt Yang, and she was stunned to ask someone to arrange it in one hour." Second Miss, don't you want to go to Lijin Pavilion to see Aunt Yang! ”
"yes." Jing Yan smiled faintly.
Chu Qing's eyes suddenly widened: "Miss go and see what she is doing!" She embroidered those three purses! What's more, Miss let her live in Lijin Pavilion, and she intended to help her at Mrs.'s end, which was already benevolent! ”
"You think I'm helping her by letting her live here?" Jing Yan smiled mysteriously, and then said, "Why don't you know, this is not the result she wants?" ”
What do you want? Aunt Yang is usually attached to her wife and trembling everywhere, how could she make such an unusual move?
Looking at Chu Qing's surprised and puzzled face, Jing Yan just said lightly: "Let's go." ”
