Chapter 151: Luo Mingzhu (Middle)
To say that Yue Yao said that she wanted to learn martial arts, the most unexpected and surprising thing was not the Ping family and Zhuang Ruolan, but Luo Mingzhu. Luo Mingzhu heard Yueyao say that she wanted to learn martial arts, she felt that there was something wrong with her ears, and the talented girl wanted to learn martial arts, this is not what the red rain in the sky is.
Luo Mingzhu asked in disbelief, "You said you want to learn martial arts?" Are you telling the truth? ”
Yue Yao nodded: "I begged my uncle a few days ago to ask him to find me a female master to teach me martial arts. I didn't know it before, but later I learned that learning martial arts is good for the body and can strengthen the body. ”
Luo Mingzhu looked at Yue Yao, who was ruddy and tall, full of doubts, "You are not in good health?" "If the person in front of him is not in good health, it is estimated that there is no one in good health in the capital.
Yue Yao smiled: "This is also thanks to an old doctor, who taught me a set of punches and made me stick to it every day." I used to be very weak and get sick easily, but since I have been doing this set of punches every day, I basically don't get sick anymore. ”
Ruolan didn't know that Yueyao begged Ma Chengteng to ask her to invite her master, but she knew that Yueyao had five birds every day, and explained: "This kid will fight for half an hour every morning and evening. Ruolan proved that Yueyao was not lying.
Luo Mingzhu was tall, much taller than people of the same age, and the twelve-year-old girl looked like she was fourteen or fifteen years old, and asked, "You are in good health now, why do you still want to learn martial arts?" Don't you know, the girl's family should be chaste and dignified? Learning martial arts is the work of those vulgar people. ”
Ping listened to Luo Mingzhu's words, and the corners of his mouth twitched. This sister-in-law herself treats moderation as nonsense, and even teaches others to be dignified.
Yue Yao looked surprised and asked, "Is there an inevitable connection between learning martial arts and becoming a lady?" "Xuewu is just protecting herself, and it doesn't matter if she is a lady or not.
"Huh?" Luo Mingzhu was stunned for a moment.
Pingyan also looked curious, this girl is really not an ordinary person, and asked Yue Yao: "To learn martial arts is to use a knife and a gun, do you think a girl who learns martial arts is still a lady?" ”
Yue Yao nodded and said, "I want to learn martial arts because I had an accident at the beginning of the year and almost died." I think if I learn martial arts, I can protect myself, and I think there is no conflict between learning martial arts and whether I become a lady in everyone. ”
Zhuang Ruolan chuckled: "I also think that even if Yueyao learns martial arts, she is also a beautiful lady and an authentic lady." "Yue Yao's rules and etiquette can't find the slightest mistake, even if she learns martial arts, she won't change.
Of course, Zhuang Ruolan will support Yue Yao, because he is sure that even if Yue Yao learns martial arts, she will only learn some fist and foot kung fu, and will definitely not dance with knives and guns.
Luo Mingzhu thought for a while and said: "But people who learn martial arts often hold swords, their hands will be very thick, and they will have a lot of calluses. Would you rather have a lot of calluses on your hands? Luo Mingzhu said this because she felt deeply that her father and brother had thick cocoons on their hands.
Yueyao spread her hands.
Luo Mingzhu looked at the layer of cocoons and exclaimed, "How did this come about?" Don't say it's from martial arts? "Looking at the tone just now, she didn't learn martial arts.
Yue Yao smiled: "I got it by practicing calligraphy day and night. ”
At this time, Caiyun walked in and said, "Young lady, Miss Ying is here." "Everyone calls Yue Yao as Yao Girl, and Lu Ying as Ying Girl, if they are all called Cousin Girl, it is easy to be confused.
Zhuang Ruolan didn't ask Lu Ying to come over, and this time she didn't know if she came over because she heard the news that a distinguished guest came to the door, so she ordered: "Let Miss Ying come in." ”
Lu Ying didn't know that there were distinguished guests coming to the mansion, she originally wanted to go to find Yueyao, but she came over when she heard that Yueyao had arrived at Zhuang Ruolan's side.
When Lu Ying arrived outside the courtyard, she saw an unfamiliar face and knew that a guest had come to the mansion. Lu Ying was a little sad, the guest who came called Yueyao but didn't call her, the eldest cousin was really eccentric.
Ruolan smiled and said: "Yajing, this is Ying'er, the daughter of my second aunt and grandmother, Ying'er, this is Mrs. Hou Shizi of Jingning and the third girl of the Luo family. ”
Lu Ying's current dress is long gone, today she is wearing goose yellow clothes, a narcissus scattered flower smoke gauze skirt, a double-ring bun, a red gold flower and pearl step shake is inserted in the bun, and a pearl tassel the size of a grain of rice hangs down the step, and a red gold inlaid jade opal pendant also falls on her ears, a long red gold lock is worn around her neck, and she also wears a pair of shrimp bracelets on her hands. This kind of dress is very rich, and it is said that people rely on clothes, and the Buddha wants gold clothes. Lu Ying looks ordinary, but under the costume, three points of beauty are also dressed up to nine points.
Luo Mingzhu looked at Lu Ying, who was dressed richly, and then looked at Yue Yao, who was dressed plainly and only had a few jade ornaments on her body, and her eyes showed a trace of interest.
When Lu Ying heard that it was the prince and the girl from the Marquis of Jingning's mansion, a scorching light flashed in her eyes at the moment. The Marquis of Jingning's Mansion is one of the most powerful families in the capital.
Ping has seen all kinds of people, and he knows Lu Ying's temperament by looking at the light in Lu Ying's eyes. Ping smiled and plucked a golden hairpin from his head and gave it to Lu Ying as a greeting gift, which was also for Zhuang Ruolan's sake.
Lu Ying's face was full of joy.
Ruolan sighed slightly beside her, Yue Yao got a valuable jade bracelet but didn't want it, while Lu Ying was so surprised when she only looked at such a golden hairpin, and the results were immediate.
Luo Mingzhu looked at Lu Ying's excited appearance, and her eyes flashed with contempt, she has seen a lot of people who tend to be inflammatory, and she looks down on such people the most. With comparison, the gap can be seen, and Luo Mingzhu feels that it is rare for Yueyao, who politely rejected her sister-in-law's jade bracelet just now.
Ping's temperament is very clear about his sister-in-law, and he is happy to see her show an interested look.
Ruolan smiled and said, "Ying'er, Yueyao, you take the three girls to the courtyard for a walk." Ping's appearance just now is obviously something to tell her.
Yue Yao was silent.
Lu Ying said happily: "Okay." ”
Luo Mingzhu swept Lu Ying coldly, she didn't like such people the most, and she laughed annoyingly. It's just that Luo Mingzhu didn't refuse, and followed Yueyao out of the courtyard.
Ruolan waited for a few girls to walk out before she asked Ping's Dao, "Why did you bring your sister-in-law here today?" "Luo Mingzhu's reputation is now well-known in the capital.
Ping said helplessly: "I'm going out, I'm running into her, and she can't refuse if she wants to follow me." "She really has a headache for this sister-in-law, her parents-in-law and husband are spoiled, everything follows her, even if she does something wrong, she will not be punished, plus there is the queen mother as a backer, it is really windy and rainy in the Hou Mansion. was raised by his family to be willful and arrogant, but he couldn't control it.
Ruolan looked at the Ping clan and said, "Don't be sloppy with me, even if it's really a coincidence, but why did you give Yueyao such a valuable bracelet?" That jade bracelet is worth a lot, what do you do to give Yueyao such a valuable thing. If there is no reason, I categorically disbelieve it. ”
Ping smiled bitterly: "You are a multi-hearted person, I really like this child." ”
Zhuang Ruolan definitely didn't believe that Ping's didn't have any ideas, and she felt that Ping's came to see her this time.
Zhuang Ruolan smiled bitterly in her heart, staying away from right and wrong made her even lower her vigilance. The so-called Three Treasures Hall has nothing to do, there are so many affairs in the Jingning Marquis Mansion, the Ping family is too busy on weekdays, how can they have time to come and visit the door. In addition, Luo Mingzhu's attitude is too weird, even if Luo Mingzhu is arrogant, but when he goes to someone else's house as a guest, he speaks disrespectfully to the relatives of the guest's family, which is not arrogant, but uneducated.
Zhuang Ruolan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she was almost fooled by the Ping family: "You may not know, my father-in-law is better to this cousin than his own daughter, and my husband also treats her as a sister-in-law." What Zhuang Ruolan meant was that she wouldn't answer even if Ping had any ideas.
Ping also knew that now was not the time to hide and pinch, so he said directly: "I think you are calmer and more relaxed than your sister, and your mood is very wide." I want her to have more contact with my sister-in-law, and after a long time together, maybe we can become friends, which is also a good thing for my sister-in-law. ”
Ruolan shook her head and said, "You have also seen your sister-in-law's temper, ordinary people really can't stand it." I think it's more suspenseful to want to be friends with Yueyao, so you'd better find someone else. ”
Ping's smiled and said, "It's not that you didn't see the scene just now, I think your cousin can subdue my sister-in-law." The sister-in-law couldn't see that Yue Yao was deliberately showing affection, but she could see it. I believe Zhuang Ruolan can also see it, so she said surrender.
Ruolan did see that Yue Yao had other plans, and she knew how high Yue Yao's heart was. Even if Yue Yao looks good to talk now, it's just that this Qinggao is hidden by her. She believed that if it weren't for Yueyao's success, she would have turned her face at that time.
Pingyan took Ruolan's hand and said, "Don't worry, my sister-in-law is arrogant and pampered by her family, but her temperament is good." Ruolan, I can't help it, I've been very worried recently, and if she doesn't correct her temperament, she will definitely suffer a big loss if she marries. Although it is said that the married daughter spilled the water, but her husband loves the sister-in-law so much, if he is really wronged in her husband's family, her husband will definitely not stand idly by. The so-called clean officials are difficult to cut off family affairs, and too much interference in the mother's family will only make things more and more confusing, and some famines will be fought at that time, so the best way is to correct the sister-in-law's temperament.
Ruolan felt that the Ping family was worried too much, and said: "It's just a sister-in-law, and it's not your own sister, when she gets married, she will be someone else's family, why do you have to be so concerned?" ”
Ping shook his head: "You said that your husband treats Yueyao's son as a sister-in-law, but my husband treats my sister-in-law as a daughter." Some time ago, I don't know who gave my mother-in-law an idea, saying that I would find two sensible girls to be my sister-in-law's companions, and my sister-in-law would naturally get better if she was affected. No, my mother-in-law asked me to find two companions for her, and the prince also realized that Mingzhu's temperament was not successful, so I asked me to find two sensible ones, and I couldn't find the satisfactory one when I looked for it. Ruolan, you believe me, my sister-in-law was spoiled by my father-in-law and husband, so that she didn't care about other people's feelings when she spoke and acted, but her nature was good. ”
Ruolan couldn't help but smile when she heard this: "Your sister-in-law has such a high status, and she is loved by the Queen Mother, it is not easy to find a sensible girl to be a companion, not to mention anything else, I remember that you still have three sisters!" "There are so many people who want to climb high branches, where do you need to put so much effort into it.
Ping shook his head and said: "Where is it so easy, there are many girls who satisfy the prince and my mother-in-law, but there is no one who can make my sister-in-law look at it." Now the one who barely stays with her is my mother-in-law's mother's family, that girl has a bad nature, and I am worried that keeping her by her side will not only not teach well, but will definitely lead people badly. Ruolan, I've really been scared to death for a while, so you should help me. "It's easy to find someone, but it's not easy to find someone who can influence my sister-in-law to make her better. Ping's couldn't be more satisfied with Yueyao.
Ruolan pondered the gains and losses.
Seeing this, Ping hurriedly said: "Ruolan, don't worry, although my mother-in-law told Shizi to find a companion for my sister-in-law, but that is for others." For Yueyao, she must be regarded as a friend of her sister-in-law. Ruolan, you must also know that Yueyao's child is not easy! Although Ping's didn't point it out, she believed that Ruolan could hear what she said, even the people of the family could not tolerate Yueyao's child, and it was impossible for the people of the family to be kind to this child.
Ruolan's heart was slightly relieved, Ping said that becoming a friend would prove that she was putting Yue Yao on an equal footing, not as a subsidiary of Luo Mingzhu, which was indeed beneficial and harmless to Yue Yao, and said: "In this way, I will talk to Yue Yao about this later, if she agrees, I will not object." If she didn't agree, it wouldn't have happened. "Yueyao, this child is very assertive, she can't make decisions for Yueyao.
The Ping family also knew that Zhuang Ruolan couldn't be the master, but Zhuang Ruolan didn't object to her having achieved her goal, "This is natural, if even the girl doesn't agree, this matter will not be successful." ”
