Chapter 2/61: Temptation
Liu Ruoxi and Lowe's came together, and it was not good for the Su family to just let Lowe's in, and let Liu Ruoxi wait outside, that would be too much to say. Su Shi frowned for a long time, but still waved his hand at the little girl, letting Liu Ruoxi and Lloy come in.
Liu Ruoxi was outside, thinking back to the look of the little girl just now, and saw her go in for a while before coming out to speak. As expected, Su Shi was planning to attack her. It's just that Su must not have thought that she and Lloyd's came together. Lloy has been in the palace for many years, and he is a shrewd and capable person, but he is afraid that he understands it in his heart, but he does not mean to clear up with her, this is a good attitude.
Liu Ruoxi has more confidence in her heart, this time, she has to follow Lloyd's more closely, and everything has to be done according to the opportunity.
After entering the house, Liu Ruoxi and Lloy's both saluted Su and said goodbye.
"Get up." Su Shi lifted his eyelids and said slowly.
Liu Ruoxi and Lloyd's both stood up.
Su didn't let the two of them sit, so he asked Lloyd's about Rong Chengxiang first, and Lloyd's replied one by one.
"Okay." Seeming to be satisfied with Lloyd's answer, Su nodded and pointed to the chair on the side for Lloyd's to sit on, "There are still a few things to tell you." ”
Su only talked to Lloyd, only let Lloy sit, but ignored Liu Ruoxi, and even refused to give Liu Ruoxi a little bit of charity in the corner of his eye. Liu Ruoxi naturally understood that this was Su Shi deliberately trying to show her face, but she refused to show it at all. Seeing that Lloyd's was sitting on the side, Liu Ruoxi didn't continue to stand, so she naturally went over with Lloyd's and sat next to Lloyd's.
Su Shi saw that Liu Ruoxi was sitting without her permission, and she was so blind! Moreover, after being snubbed by her for a long time, Liu Ruoxi not only did not have the slightest look of shame, but smiled and groaned, as if nothing happened!
Su Shi felt a breath of breath in his chest, and he couldn't get up or down there. She looked at Liu Ruoxi. There is something wrong with the eyes.
"The mother concubine instructed the second sister-in-law, and while I listened, I also gained a lot of knowledge." When Liu Ruoxi saw Su Shi looking at her, she said with a smile, "The mother concubine won't blame her." ”
"You're a good mouthful." Su Shi snorted coldly, "I think you were originally in your mother's family, and the Liu family is also a scholarly family for generations, and your old lady is the most disciplined." You should know the etiquette that the elders should have. ”
Su Shi looked at Liu Ruoxi, obviously having something to say. In front of my mother-in-law. Before the mother-in-law let the daughter-in-law sit, the daughter-in-law sat down by herself, which is not a proper practice.
Of course, Liu Ruoxi understood what Su meant, but she didn't stand up.
"The mother has won the prize. Even so, when the daughter-in-law went out, the elders of the family told her that when she arrived at the palace, everything should follow the rules of the palace and the instructions of the mother. The concubine is known as a virtuous person and is a role model for all the daughters of the family. And the mother concubine treats the younger generation very charitentially. Never embarrass people for no reason. Hou Ye also said that the mother concubine is the world's first-class reasonable and benevolent person, and he also asked his daughter-in-law not to be restrained and worried. It will never appear in our house. This kind of thing, but there is a sign, and the mother concubine will not tolerate it first. …… In front of the mother, the daughter-in-law felt very cordial. Liu Ruoxi said with a smile.
Liu Ruoxi said the Liu family. said Rong Chenghan again, and said that the Su family was kind and reasonable, and finally simply understood the topic of mother-in-law making things difficult for her daughter-in-law. If Su Shi wants to say that Liu Ruoxi shouldn't sit at this time. Then there is Rong Chenghan in Liufu, and he has to be the daughter-in-law of the Su family. Su Shi was depressed in his heart, but it was even more difficult to attack, so he could only close his eyes and let Liu Ruoxi sit there.
Next, Su Shi instructed Lloyd's to do a few things, and Lloyd's agreed. Then, Lloyd's reported some family matters to Su. Liu Ruoxi, just like she said, has been listening carefully to the side. When I heard this, I naturally heard some doorways.
The Su family really trusted Lloyd's very much, and handed over all the big and small affairs of the palace to Lloy's to take care of. However, the power to dispose of major matters is still in the hands of the Su family, and the Lloyds do not dare to exceed it. Whether it is Lloy's observance of his duty, or the objective reality of the situation in the palace, the housekeeping management of the palace is indeed much more transparent and standardized than that of the Liu family's previous Mrs. Liu's housekeeping.
Su Shi is not confused in this kind of thing, and her virtuous name is not completely wasted. And Lloyd's is indeed a housekeeper's talent.
"You go get busy, you don't need to serve here." After finishing the housework, Su Shi instructed Lloyd.
Lowe's got up and told Su to go out. Liu Ruoxi saw the opportunity and got up hurriedly to leave. She did the etiquette of greeting the Su family, and she didn't want to stay in Chunhui Hall long when she knew that the Su family was determined to embarrass her.
Su Shi stopped Liu Ruoxi.
"Your second sister-in-law has family affairs to take care of, so you can stay for the time being."
Liu Ruoxi had no choice but to stay, watching Lloy secretly give her a helpless look and retreat.
Liu Ruoxi was left, but Su didn't talk to Liu Ruoxi, but only told the maids and daughters-in-law who were serving on the side, and occasionally gossiped a word or two. This is to dry Liu Ruoxi again. In fact, if the Su family wants to embarrass Liu Ruoxi, they don't have to do superfluous things at all, just like now, they don't understand what is wrong with Liu Ruoxi, and they are not very good Liu Ruoxi, just hanging Liu Ruoxi, everyone in this palace will immediately understand.
Su Shi didn't want to see Liu Ruoxi. Liu Ruoxi will also lose face because of this. 、
Next, naturally there will be people who don't look at Liu Ruoxi in their eyes, and if Liu Ruoxi is in the palace, they will encounter countless difficulties and neglects, and it will be difficult to move an inch.
Liu Ruoxi secretly sighed twice, she had seen these tricks before. It was clearly all left over from Mrs. Liu's play. The object of Mrs. Liu's treatment is naturally Liu Ruoxi's mother, Mrs. Liu Er.
However, Liu Ruoxi didn't plan to be submissive like Mrs. Liu, waiting for a long time to influence the Su family little by little. Liu Ruoxi had already decided that she would only be good to those who were good to her.
"Mother, concubine," Liu Ruoxi stepped forward with a smile, ignoring the surprised eyes that everyone had concealed and were not so successful, she sat down beside Su Shi, and deliberately pulled Su Shi to speak.
When Su saw Liu Ruoxi like this, he couldn't say that Liu Ruoxi, but he really didn't like Liu Ruoxi. Moreover, she was making Liu Ruoxi ugly, why did Liu Ruoxi react so slowly, she didn't notice it at all, and she didn't feel it at all. If this were another daughter-in-law who had just entered the door, I was afraid that she would have cried out in shame. Even if you can hold back your tears. It's time to hold your head up.
Su Shi was depressed, so he moved to the side, and his face became gloomy. This is an obvious hint, but Liu Ruoxi didn't seem to be aware at all, and still smiled very naturally. Su Shi couldn't bear it, so he simply pointed to the chair next to the couch.
This is to let Liu Ruoxi leave her side and sit on the chair.
Liu Ruoxi smiled secretly and was about to get up, but she didn't get up, but she changed the topic. Speaking of Rong Chenghan.
“…… The left arm is a little uncomfortable, I am afraid that it is an old wound left on the north side......"
Hearing Liu Ruoxi say that Rong Chenghan was uncomfortable, and about the old injury, Su's eyes immediately stared at Liu Ruoxi, and Fang Cai's impatience and disgusted expression disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"What's wrong? What the hell is going on. …… Although it is winter, this spring cold is very strong. You are young, you don't know how powerful ......" Su's demeanor and tone were impossible to fake their concern.
Liu Ruoxi saw these in her eyes and remembered them in her heart.
"The mother doesn't have to worry too much. I have already used the medicine, and it is a prescription that my mother got by chance from an old miracle doctor, and it is extremely effective. …… When he went out, he personally added clothes for Hou Ye. Hou Ye also said. The old injury is not a big deal, and after two years of recuperation, it will be completely healed. ”
Su Shi listened to Liu Ruoxi's words, but was silent for a long time.
Of course, Liu Ruoxi knew why the Su clan was silent. Su and Rong Chenghan's mother and son are estranged. In the years that Rong Chenghan has left the capital, many things that have happened to him have happened to him, and the Su family does not know at all. Rong Chenghan never talked about it with the Su family.
"When you're young, it's easy not to take it personally. It's not a trivial matter, and you must not be sloppy. What you need to recuperate, what you need, you can just tell me. There is no one in the house, and then I will go elsewhere to collect it. After a while, Su Shi said in a low voice, and in the end, somehow, Su Shi raised his voice, "If you are sloppy, I will definitely not spare you!" ”
"Yes, the mother and daughter-in-law have written it down, and they dare not forget it." Regarding Su's sudden bad attitude, Liu Ruoxi didn't care. "If the daughter-in-law doesn't understand something, she has to come to the concubine for advice. Please also ask the mother not to be annoyed by the daughter-in-law. ”
Su Shi didn't say anything this time, just snorted, which was considered an answer.
"Does the concubine know where the injury on the Hou Ye's arm came from?" Liu Ruoxi asked tentatively again.
"I ...... He ...... "Su Shi didn't say it explicitly, but looking at her demeanor, it was clear that she wanted to know."
"That's right, it was the second year that Cheng Han went to the north...... "Liu Ruoxi told eloquently, focusing on how brave Rong Chenghan was, how painful he was injured, and how he was looked up to and revered by everyone after that, and what kind of reward he received.
Su Shi didn't seem to have heard of this, he had already listened to it for a while, and his demeanor also changed with Liu Ruoxi's tone, one moment proud, the other sad.
In the end, Liu Ruoxi felt a little sympathetic to Su Shi in her heart. The estrangement from his own son is so deep, and Su's heart must also be tormented. However, Liu Ruoxi's sympathy was soon replaced by other feelings. Because Liu Ruoxi thought of it, the culprit who caused such a gap between mother and son was Su herself.
Thinking so, Liu Ruoxi suddenly stopped talking.
"Why didn't you say it?" Su Shi was listening attentively, and he had long forgotten that he wanted to make things difficult for Liu Ruoxi and didn't like Liu Ruoxi sitting next to her. Liu Ruoxi sat beside her, so that she could listen more truly.
"I've been bothering my mother for too long." Liu Ruoxi stood up, "There is still needlework to be done, which is urgently needed by the Hou Ye." ”
Su Shi was silent for a while, slowly drooped/pulled down his eyelids, and only waved his hand to Liu Ruoxi.
"Since there is something to do, you should go first."
Liu Ruoxi agreed, saluted the Su family, and walked out with the girl who followed. Out of Chunhui Hall, Liu Ruoxi took a deep breath, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile. The air in early spring is still a little cold, but you can already smell the faint scent of grass. In the near future, the garden will be verdant and leafy.
Su Shi was instigated and wanted to deliberately give her no face. But at this time, I'm afraid that the news has spread throughout the palace. As a new daughter-in-law, Liu Ruoxi got along with her mother-in-law Su for the first time, not only could she sit on the couch with Su, as close as mother and daughter, but also talked happily with her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
The new daughter-in-law can have such a face, which is very rare. The status of this new daughter-in-law in the house will also rise.
Moreover, this short half-day relationship also allowed Liu Ruoxi to understand the Su family better and master the way to get along with the Su family. This will be of great benefit to her future life in the palace.
Liu Ruoxi led everyone to Yunshuiju, and after walking not far away, she saw Su Qingnuan coming from a curved corridor next to her. Liu Ruoxi knew that in the past, the corridor was Su Qingnuan's current residence in the palace, Yuxiangzhai. It was the closest courtyard to Chunhui Hall.
I originally thought that it would be difficult to come forward, so I only hid in the dark to watch a good show, but I heard a completely different wind, so I couldn't sit still, and I was going to come out to make waves again! (To be continued......)
