"Old lady, Allure was wronged by my side during this time, and the original brocade concubine was given to Allure, but..."
"It's just that Xi'er complained about the concubine because of this, and the concubine had to let Allure send the brocade to Xi'er." Aunt Liu said, and wiped the tears in her eyes with a handkerchief, it was not easy to be a mother.
Si Ruoxi sneered in her heart, does this Aunt Liu treat everyone else as a fool? This clearly means that she Si Ruoxi is not sensible, because she is separated from her aunt with a piece of material, and Aunt Liu wants to push the matter on her, and she has to see if she agrees, who can't do it than acting.
"Grandmother, it's all Xi'er's, Xi'er just saw that her aunt gave her second sister so many good things, and she was a little envious, and that day her aunt called Xi'er over after being grounded, saying that she wanted Xi'er to follow Aunt Fang to learn to take charge of the affairs of the house, and asked the second sister to send the brocade and satin to my courtyard, Xi'er thought that this was her aunt's love, so she would accept it." Si Ruoxi lowered her head in tears, not letting everyone see her expression.
It's just that in the eyes of everyone, Si Ruoxi was wronged, but she couldn't bear to cry, this little daughter's posture is really distressing.
The backyard of the Dingguo Mansion is so big, which yard has what gossip on weekdays, everyone knows a little bit, Aunt Liu's different attitude towards her two daughters, extremely spoiled Shen Tingcheng, and it is no secret that she ignores Shen Ruoxi's daughter.
Si Ruoxi said this, everyone only felt that Aunt Liu was really too ruthless, and Mrs. Shen was naturally no exception, the original owner had made trouble for this brocade once before, and was reprimanded by Aunt Liu, and went back to cry, and this matter also reached the ears of the old lady.
Now that it seems that this Aunt Liu is unconscious, the second girl followed her to learn something, the third girl was not raised by her side but was much more sensible, Old Madam Shen looked at Si Ruoxi who was kneeling in front of her with a little more pity.
"Grandmother, Li'er feels that the third sister is just a child's heart, and it is not a big mistake to want to be loved by her mother, grandmother is about to let the third sister stop kneeling." Shen Qianli opened her mouth at this time, obviously pleading for Si Ruoxi, and implied that Aunt Liu, her mother-in-law, was incompetent.
Ma Mo has been following Old Madam Shen for so many years, so she is naturally a person who knows how to read her eyes, "Third Miss, hurry up, it will be distressing to kneel down the old lady." As he spoke, he stepped forward to help Si Ruoxi.
Si Ruoxi stood up with the force in her hand, but her head was still lowered, and the crystal tears broke off and smashed on the golden silk nanmu laid on the ground, making everyone's hearts tremble, and they couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
"Hmph, I don't think you mother and daughter need to be released, and when the state banquet is over and the confinement will continue for three months, can the mother-in-law of the Ma Na sect be found?" Old Madam Shen is becoming more and more dissatisfied with Aunt Liu.
"Old lady, the mother-in-law has arrived, and she has been waiting for a long time." The horse replied from the sidelines.
"In the past three days, let the mother-in-law teach the second lady the rules that she should understand, and the third girl will follow my old woman in the future, and grandmother will not treat you badly." Old Madam Shen said that she was behind, took Si Ruoxi's hand, and patted it gently.
"Yes, grandmother, it's just my aunt and second sister..."Si Ruoxi glanced at Aunt Liu and Shen Chengcheng, and stopped talking.
"Leave them alone, accompany Grandmother to the garden." Old Madam Shen took the lead in walking out of Wenyi Courtyard, Si Ruoxi and Shen Qianli hurriedly followed, and after walking farther, Si Ruoxi vaguely heard Shen Qingcheng's uncontrollable cry from Wenyi Courtyard, and smiled with satisfaction.
The three days passed quickly, Si Ruoxi would occasionally go to accompany Mrs. Shen to taste tea and enjoy the flowers, and often met the heroine Shen Qianli there, and the two were familiar with each other.
As for Aunt Liu and Shen Tingcheng, Si Ruoxi didn't pay attention to it anymore, only listened to Hua Ying's gossip and chatted, Aunt Liu was still grounded in the courtyard, and the mother-in-law who taught Shen Tingcheng the rules came out of the palace, and taught the emperor's relatives to be harsh, and I heard that Shen Tingcheng was tossed and lost a lot of weight.
On this day, they were all waiting in front of the Dingguo Mansion early, and a huge carriage was parked at the door, although it did not look luxurious on the outside, but it could be seen that it was not for ordinary people.
Si Ruoxi was dressed in a satin embroidered butterfly skirt, and Hua Ying combed a spiritual snake bun for her, and lit a cherry blossom on her forehead.
The heroine Shen Qianli wore a crescent moon phoenix tail Luo skirt, and simply curled Chaoyun's fragrant bun, just a little powder, but she was said to be elegant and luxurious. Shen Tingcheng and Shen Ranran knew at a glance that they were dressed up.
Looking at Shen Tingcheng's resentful eyes, Si Ruoxi didn't care much, anyway, according to Shen Tingcheng's IQ, he couldn't make any big waves, and besides, when she was unlucky at this state banquet, the heroine would definitely clean her up, without Aunt Liu by her side, Shen Tingcheng didn't know what would happen.
Waiting for the old lady Shen to come out, the five of them got into the carriage together, Si Ruoxi and Shen Qianli sat on both sides of the old lady to serve, and Shen Tingcheng and Shen Ranran sat on the side and were silent without speaking.
"There are many rules in the palace, when the time comes, you follow me and don't talk less, and don't walk around, so as not to offend any master." Old Madam Shen advised, and deliberately stared at Shen Tingcheng a few times.
It wasn't until Shen Tingcheng's pale face that Old Lady Shen withdrew her gaze, and told Si Ruoxi and Shen Qianli again, her attitude was obviously much more loving, Si Ruoxi also nodded, and kept her words in her heart, she went this time purely to play soy sauce, plus watch a play.
The carriage didn't know how long it had been until it stopped, "The old woman from the Dingguo Mansion has arrived." A sharp sound seemed to have arrived at the gate of the palace.
Si Ruoxi and Shen Qianli got out of the carriage first, and then helped Old Madam Shen out of the carriage, and finally Shen Ranran and Shen Qingcheng came down in turn.
A sister-in-law led them to the palace, and only stopped when they walked to a garden, there were already many people inside, and Si Ruoxi saw that Ma Mo handed a certain amount of silver to the palace man who led the way.
The garden was full of the ladies of the family, as soon as Mrs. Shen came in, someone came up to say hello, Mrs. Shen took them to say hello one by one, and then sat down to gossip with those noble ladies about their parents.
They sat until lunchtime, when the palace people came to introduce them into the Jinluan Palace, where the male dependents sat on the right side, and the female dependents all sat on the left side after entering.
Under the seat, Si Ruoxi looked at the splendid palace with some curiosity, and was attracted by the ornaments in the palace.
didn't wait for a while, and heard the eunuch pass the news, "The Queen Mother has arrived." "The emperor has arrived." "The concubine and the lady are here."
Everyone hurriedly got up and bowed, and Si Ruoxi also lowered his head and saluted with them.
"No courtesy." A deep voice sounded, although he didn't look up, Si Ruoxi still guessed that it was the emperor's voice, I don't know if it was an illusion, Si Ruoxi felt that there was a gaze that kept watching her.
