Bai Yi made a color towards a few maids, and Zhiqin and a few others went out. Drizzle looked at Yueyao, saw Yueyao nodded and withdrew.

Everyone else in the room went out, and Yue Yao asked, "Is this Zhao Yun'er married?" ”

Mingzhu shook her head.

Yue Yao frowned and said, "She didn't settle for a long time to live in your mansion, could it be that there is someone in your mansion who is the right age for her?" If you are not in a hurry to say goodbye in the future, you will not be able to marry a good family. Bai Yi looked so disgusted, it can be seen that this woman is a very scheming person. If she guessed correctly, this girl was afraid that she would go to the Hou Shizi of Jingning.

Mingzhu shook her head, "No, even if she has the right age, she is not qualified enough." "Even if she is the concubine of the Marquis of Jingning, where is Zhao Yun'er's daughter who is in a broken household.

Mingzhu is simple, but she is not ignorant.

Yueyao said: "There is no man of her age, what is she doing living in your house for a long time!" Don't say that she is filial to your mother, if you want to spread it, you still think how unfilial you are with your brother, and let an outsider do her filial piety: "This woman is clearly using the simplicity of Mingzhu."

Mingzhu shook her head and said, "It was my mother who liked her so she stayed, and I can't say anything." ”

It is impossible for Yue Yao to speak ill of Mrs. Jingninghou, "Does your mother want to kiss her?" But your mother doesn't go out of the Jingning Marquis Mansion, how can you tell her to kiss? Mingzhu, did your sister-in-law say hello to her? "Mrs. Jingning Hou can't even get out of bed, how to give Zhao Yun'er Zhang Luo's family, this matter will definitely fall on the head of the Ping family. If the Ping family didn't give Zhao Yun'er Zhang Luo's personal affairs, then her guess was true.

Mingzhu glared at Yue Yao, "If you have something to say, you are not tired of beating around the bush with me, I didn't find you so grinding before." ”

Yue Yao didn't say directly, "You can think about it yourself!" You have to tell you everything, and if you don't think about it, you will never grow up. "The people of the Marquis of Jingning Mansion protected Mingzhu very well, making her very simple and unaware of the sinister outside.

The protection of the family is good, but excessive protection is harmful to the pearl. Yue Yao felt that Mingzhu was already thirteen years old and should be exposed to these things. If you don't understand these struggles, you will suffer a big loss after marrying in the future.

Every time Yue Yao spoke in the tone of an elder, Mingzhu was speechless, "You have to remember, you are two years younger than me, I am your sister, you know?" ”

Yueyao smiled, "Got it, sister." Then think about it! "Although her mental age is older than Mingzhu, she is indeed younger at her current age, and she doesn't argue with Mingzhu.

Mingzhu is simple, which does not mean that she is really stupid. I just didn't think much about it before, but now I think about it and my brows are furrowed. This Zhao Yun'er is afraid that she is the same as Bai Han, and she is uneasy and kind.

Yue Yao knew that Mingzhu really took this matter to heart, and she was also suspicious of Zhao Yun'er, what she wanted was this effect, and she wouldn't say anything more.

Yue Yao smiled when she saw Mingzhu's wistful expression and said, "You just said that you have been practicing calligraphy all this time, and you have been praised by Hou Ye and Shizi, you write two words for me to see if there is any progress." "Yueyao is trying to divert Mingzhu's attention.

Mingzhu was very dissatisfied, and muttered: "You underestimate me too much, not only have I improved in writing, but my flute is also very good!" Do you want to listen to it? ”

Yueyao bowed her head, this is naturally something to listen to.

Zhiqin was called and immediately sent the jade flute.

Mingzhu played a very cheerful tune, and Yue Yao listened carefully, it was already very good to be able to reach such a level for more than a year. Yueyao said with a smile after waiting for the pearl to finish, "It's very good, but if you replace the jade flute with a bamboo flute, it will sound better." ”

The flute can be made of bamboo, animal bones, jade, metal and many other materials, but the best notes that can be blown are bamboo. It's just that the world is so extravagant, and the powerful and powerful people all use jade flutes or other precious metals to make flutes.

Mingzhu listened to Yueyao's explanation and said happily: "I'll ask them to find me a few good bamboo flutes, and compare them when the time comes, to see if the jade flute or the bamboo flute is better." ”

On the other side, Zhuang Ruolan and the Ping family returned to the courtyard, Zhuang Ruolan also waved away all the people below, and the two also talked privately in the house.

Ping's wanted to take off the scripture of giving birth to a child with Zhuang Ruolan, "It's only been a long time since I got pregnant again, tell me if I got any good recipes." "The Ping family has used a lot of secret recipes for giving birth, but they are all useless.

Zhuang Ruolan didn't use the secret recipe, their husband and wife were affectionate and loving, and Ma Peng never went to the concubine's room, so it was normal to get pregnant so soon. Zhuang Ruolan shook her head and said, "Where is the secret recipe." Don't be too anxious, what does the doctor say? "We have to see if there is anything wrong with Ping's body first.

Ping shook his head, "The Imperial Doctor said that my body is well nourished. Fang Zi also searched for a lot, but ...... Alas, my mother-in-law has found a distant relative to put in the mansion, saying that she will let the prince be the second room. The prince wanted a son-in-law, so he never agreed. But if it goes on like this, it will be sooner or later. ”

Zhuang Ruolan didn't know what to say, she had a headache when she met a tricky mother-in-law, and it was even more a headache when she met a mother-in-law who was almost an idiot.

When Ping Shi talked about this, his heart was very sour, "I used to think you were stupid, and I chose the eldest young master of the Ma family for the sake of anger, but now I see that the three of us are having the best life." "In the past, Ping's and Zhuang Ruolan, as well as Cui Muyan who married into the Prime Minister's Mansion, were Jinlan sisters.

Ruolan smiled, it is good to be prosperous and rich, but a husband who knows cold and hot is the most important thing.

The two talked for a long time, and Zhuang Ruolan sent Yahuan over to invite Mingzhu over for dinner. Caiyi came over and said, "Young lady, Mrs. Shizi, Miss Luo said that she had lunch in Haitang Garden." Miss Luo also said that she had a lot to say to Miss Yueyao, and hoped to go back later. ”

Zhuang Ruolan smiled: "These two girls have a really good relationship. ”

Mingzhu smiled when she heard that Ping agreed to her request. Yue Yao smiled on the side: "Mingzhu, your sister-in-law hurts you a lot." ”

Mingzhu doesn't deny it, because Ping's is really good to her, "My sister-in-law is really good, but my mother doesn't like her." ”

Yueyao also knew that her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had been difficult to get along with since ancient times, but she still followed Mingzhu's words and asked, "Why doesn't your mother like your sister-in-law." I think your sister-in-law is very good, she comes from a famous family, she is beautiful and capable, and she is kind to people. ”

Mingzhu naturally knew why her mother didn't like her sister-in-law, "My mother asked my sister-in-law to stop the medicine for those concubines because my sister-in-law didn't give birth to my brother, but my sister-in-law didn't agree, and my brother didn't want to." My brother said that the eldest son is the root of the troubled family, and my mother can't be my brother's master, so she will be angry with her sister-in-law, I have helped my sister-in-law speak several times, and my mother finally scolded me. ”

Yue Yao was surprised, "I remember that your sister-in-law gave birth to a child, could it be that your sister-in-law is not in good health." "If you haven't been happy, it's okay, unless you have a child and you are injured, you shouldn't be pregnant for three years.

Mingzhu shook her head, "If my sister-in-law is not in good health and can't give birth, my brother won't always insist, I'd rather go against my mother's wishes than compromise." Actually, I don't understand, my sister-in-law is not in bad health, and the doctor also said that there is no problem, but she just can't get pregnant. ”

Yue Yao thought for a moment and said, "I have seen such an example in a book, which is similar to your sister-in-law's situation. ”

Mingzhu was dumbfounded, "What kind of book are you reading?" Would you even talk about having a child? "It's certainly not a serious book. Well, it must be a miscellaneous book again.

Yue Yao smiled: "I don't remember what book it is, but this incident is very peculiar, so I remember it very clearly." ”

Mingzhu had some curiosity, "What's so peculiar?" ”

Yue Yao smiled: "The book says that the more eager you want a child, the more difficult it is to conceive. If you relax your mind, it is easier to get pregnant. Your sister-in-law is in good health, but she can't get pregnant, I think it's because she is too nervous and anxious. If your sister-in-law can relax, I think she will be able to conceive soon. "This matter is not something that Yueyao saw from a book, it was Yueyao who heard from her master. Mrs. Shi said that the more urgent the matter of the heir, the less likely it will be, and it is easier to get pregnant when you relax.

Mingzhu's eyes widened, "Really? The book really says so. ”

Yue Yao nodded, "Well, this is indeed a matter. You can relay my words to your sister-in-law, believe it or not! Jing Ninghou helped her a lot, since she knew that she must have said something. As for whether Ping Shixiang believes it or not, this is not something she can control.

Mingzhu nodded, "Okay, I'll tell my sister-in-law when I go back." ”

At this time, Ping's also asked Zhuang Ruolan, "Are these novel clothing styles designed by Yueyao?" Don't fool me, I've seen all those styles, and my skills are very deep. ”

Zhuang Ruolan smiled when she heard this, and didn't hide it anymore, and said, "Yes, she painted it." But she was also playing, and she didn't put her mind on it. She wouldn't have wanted to draw it if I hadn't asked for it. "At this time, naturally the four girls of the Lian family can't be involved, so they can only put all the credit on Yueyao's head.

Ping's eyebrows jumped, "I didn't expect Yueyao to have such a talent." ”

Zhuang Ruolan thought for a while and said, "The ready-to-wear shop opened this time is also the credit of Yueyao. On the same day, I said that I wanted to invest in the shipping business, and the child said that the business was too risky, and it was better to do some business, but he did not expect that the future of the ready-to-wear store would be good by mistake. ”

Ping couldn't help asking: "Does the ready-to-wear shop also have her share?" "Ping didn't suspect that the dye Fang Zi had something to do with Yue Yao.

Zhuang Ruolan smiled: "Yes, like me, they are all thirty percent." ”

A thought flashed through Ping's mind, and he asked, "You won't tell me that the dye recipe was also given to you by Yueyao, right?" "It's not that Ping's is too imaginative, but that this dye recipe is too abrupt. Now Yueyao suddenly appeared, making her instinctively start to doubt.

Zhuang Ruolan hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Well, Yueyao likes to paint, so she always has to mix a lot of paints." She felt that the paint she bought was not easy to use, and once she saw a paint recipe in an ancient book, and she mixed it according to this recipe to make a pigment that she was satisfied with. Once, when she was painting, she accidentally dyed the concocted paint on the white clothes she was wearing, only to find that the dye could not be washed off when it fell on the cloth. Later, when she found out that I had a cloth workshop, she gave me this recipe and said that it might work for me. The kid didn't realize the importance of this recipe at the time. ”

Ping's eyes were about to pop out, "That's it." "The recipe that made a lot of noise in the capital turned out to be discovered by Yue Yao by accident, it's too terrifying!

Zhuang Ruolan said with a smile: "Fang Zi's matter can only be said to be a coincidence. This child's mind is not on this, but let me pick up a bargain. ”

Ping shook her head, if she hadn't seen Yueyao, she might still believe Zhuang Ruolan's words. But she has seen Yueyao a few times, this child is a very smart person, it is impossible for her not to know the value of this recipe, so there is no such thing as taking advantage. The only explanation is that Yue Yao agreed with Zhuang Ruolan and gave her the recipe.

Zhuang Ruolan hurriedly added: "This matter can't be known to others, otherwise it will bring trouble to Yueyao." Zhuang Ruolan didn't mind letting others know that those clothes styles were made by Yueyao, but she didn't want to reveal Fangzi's affairs.

Ping smiled: "Don't worry, I won't say anything to anyone, just you and I know." ”
