Chapter 14 (2)
Ji Nianjin took off the crane and before she went in, she heard the woman laugh and say:
"Madam, the old lady said, because the lady is inconvenient, it is not suitable to work, and the old lady herself is old, there is always a time when the heart is haggard, so let the slave maid come to ask the lady what she means, and temporarily hand over the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion to the third wife, and the second lady assists from the side, and when the lady gives birth to a little son, the cultivation is good, and it is not too late to come to the house, I don't know what the lady means, and the slave and maid will go back to life.

Ji Nianjin took a look, and it turned out to be Ruan's mother next to the Li family.
Ruan's mother is also Li's marrying maid, different from Zhao's, when she reached her age, Li was in charge and gave her to Ji Hai, the manager of the outer court, the husband and wife, one in charge of the outer courtyard and the other in charge of the inner courtyard, which is the most powerful slave in the Hou Mansion.
The big and small things in Yaoxi Hall are all in charge of Ruan's mother, and she can win the trust of the Li family, which shows that Ruan's mother is also reliable and heartfelt.
Today, Ruan's mother came to Qingxin Garden in person, it can be seen that it represents the face of the Li family, and if the Mei family has any reaction, Ji Nianjin believes that when she turns her head, the Li family will know it clearly.
Ji Nianjin walked in, saluted Mei's, and said:
"Mother, Jin'er is hungry, what delicious food is for Jin'er today?"
With a little daughter posture, she was coquettish to Mei's, if it weren't for Mei's belly, Ji Nianjin couldn't wait to go directly into Mei's arms.
Ji Nianjin interrupted what Mei was about to say, she sat up with a smile, took Ji Nianjin's hand, and looked at it carefully.
It was snowing today, and Mei was worried that Ji Nianjin would be frozen when she came from the hibiscus courtyard, and she didn't plan to let Ji Nianjin come, but the little girl who was sent to pass the word came back and said that Ji Nianjin would come over, saying that if she didn't come to Qingxinyuan to accompany her to eat, it wouldn't be delicious.
is really a funny person, Mei can't, so he has to order the small kitchen, and prepare the share of the next season's Hibiscus.
She was waiting for Ji Nianjin to come over, but she didn't think that it was the Li family who sent Ruan's mother to come over to ask in person, and just as she was thinking about it, Ji Nianjin seemed to be deliberate and crashed into the middle of the two.
Ruan's mother got up, bowed slightly to Ji Nianjin, and said with a smile:
"I've seen the second girl, it's hard to be embarrassed by this snowy day, the girl can still accompany her wife to eat every day, it can be seen that she is very filial, and the old lady is also very pleased."
Mei Shi took Ji Nianjin's hand, and saw that her hands were indeed warm, so she relieved herself and asked Ji Nianjin to sit down beside her, and then turned back to Ruan's mother.
"Mother Ruan, it's rare for you to go for a trip on this snowy day, I know about this, I listen to my mother, I'm physically inconvenient, there are three brothers and sisters and two brothers and sisters in this house, when it's convenient for me, I'll thank them again."
Mei said with a smile, his face was shallow and gentle, as if he didn't care who was in charge of this Hou Mansion, but Ji Nianjin thought about it and understood the meaning of Mei's words.
Mei's listened to Li's, that is to say, this feed temporarily promised to be handed over to the third room and the second room to manage, that is for the sake of his own body is really inconvenient, but in the future, when the child is born, the body is well cultivated, just like Li said, this feed still has to be returned to the big room, because this is what Li said.
If Sanfang doesn't agree in the future, Mei can use this to block Sanfang, she just obeys Li's will to do things, Sanfang doesn't agree, she has to ask Li first.
But the Li family is a face-saving person, if he is slapped in the face by Sanfang, it is also the Li family and Sanfang's own business, it has nothing to do with the big house, as long as the Mei family is the wife of the prince, he still has to take care of the Hou Mansion.
"Madame is polite, why don't you wait for the little prince to land with peace of mind, the affairs in the house, there is the old lady watching, the third lady will definitely cook very well, then the slave will go back and tell the old lady what the lady meant."
Ruan's mother got up with a smile, bowed, and took her leave.
The bead curtain in the east room swayed, and Ji Nianjin came back to his senses, thinking about Mei's meaning.
"Mother, can we still get the middle feed of this Hou Mansion back? If you don't give three rooms in the future, the people in this house will be used to praising the high and stepping on the low, Jin'er is worried that the Hou Mansion will only recognize the three rooms in the future, ignoring our big house. ”
Ji Nianjin didn't know what the Mei family thought, in her previous life, her mother was no longer there at this time, and the middle feed of the Hou Mansion had already been handed over to the Li family, and then it naturally went to the hands of the third room.
But now, my mother is fine, and my father is still the son of the Hou Mansion, so Fu'an Hou Mansion will naturally be in charge of the Mei family.
"Jin'er, but where did you hear anything?"
Mei pulled Ji Nianjin to sit down and asked carefully, can Ji Nianjin say these words, Mei doesn't believe that this is just Ji Nianjin's own thoughts.
"Madam, you don't know, you just agreed here, but there are already people in the mansion chewing the root of their tongues, saying that the old lady has the final say in this Hou Mansion, and the third lady is the tip of the old lady's heart, and the Hou Mansion will be the third room in charge sooner or later."
Bai Lan didn't hold back, but still said what she knew, Ji Nianjin didn't stop it, she felt that it was good to let Mei know, at least she knew that this mansion was not as good as it seemed.
"Mother, do you and your father know this?"
Ji Nianjin asked, in this life, when her father comes back safely, she will definitely change a lot of things, and she may not know these things, so if she wants to do something, she first needs to know the attitude of her father and mother.
"Ugh...
Mei didn't say anything, just sighed, and from this sigh, Ji Nianjin understood that his father and mother knew this.
"Jin'er, you are still young, you don't have to pay attention to these, with your father and me, you will never be wronged, so you just have to do your own thing, what you want to play, just say, your father is the son of the world, and no one in this Hou Mansion can cross you."
Mei's last sentence is obviously powerful, it seems that it is not that the mother doesn't care, but that the mother has already made up her mind in her heart.
"Well, Jin'er listens to her mother, and with her father and mother here, I don't worry about anything."
In this life, she is no longer afraid, no longer cowardly, and if someone still bullies her like in her previous life, she will not be polite.
"Let's see if the prince has returned home, and if he does, he will set up a meal."
Mei sent Xiangqi out to have a look, at this time today, Ji Yunlian has not come back yet, but it is later than usual.
Xiangqi went out, and soon turned back and reported:
"Madam, the prince has come back and has already entered the courtyard gate, and the slave maid will ask someone to set the meal."
Xiangqi was happy and pulled Bai Lan down together, in the past few days, Ji Nianjin has been eating in Qingxin Garden, and even the maids around him are also familiar with each other.
Over there, Ji Yunlian took off the crane that had been wet on his body, and a maid had already held something to clean his face, waiting for him to finish grooming, and Ji Yunlian entered the east room.
As soon as he came in, before Ji Nianjin finished his salute, he pulled Ji Nianjin to sit down, and said:
"I came back late today, at the invitation of the little prince of the Hou Mansion in the north of the Qing Dynasty, I went to the Moon Tower to sit down, I never thought about it, but the prince also invited the little grandfather of the prince's foreign family Jinchang Mansion, so it was delayed for some time, but today's trip really made me refreshed."
