Chapter 20: Greetings

Since she is going to start asking for peace from today, Xi Cui can only start cleaning up for Yun Ting early. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info combed hair and makeup to choose clothes, and the time to get a whole set down was about the same, and I didn't have time to eat breakfast. It was rare that Wang Shaoyan didn't go out, saying that he wanted to go with them.

Before leaving, Xi Cui went to Mama Wu and asked her to arrange someone to prepare breakfast, but found that Mama's room was empty, and asked the maids around her, but no one knew what time she went out. Xi Cui felt that the matter was a little serious...... But the most important thing in front of us now is that we must go to say hello first.

This is the first time Xi Cui has come to the Heju where the old lady lives. When I first heard this name, Xi Cui couldn't help but smile, "And", two people who are separated from morality but have to live together, how ironic is this and the word?

But I have to admit that this and the house is indeed beautiful. Ribbon-like corridors connect various forms of houses, gardens, rockeries, and lotus ponds, although it is late autumn, this place is still verdant like spring, and there are bursts of floral fragrance from time to time. But through the eyes of the rockery bamboo forest people, they can't see the flowers, and there is a feeling that the dark fragrance hits people and the flower fairy is not seen. But Xi Cui really has the leisure to enjoy the scenery here, because this is the real Longtan Tiger's Den of the Wang family.

Guess the small door in front of the main hall, and you can hear the crisp and pleasant laughter inside. It should be the Wang sisters in it, right?

"Auntie, will my cousin-in-law really come to say hello? Will my cousin come along? Exquisite voice.

"Why haven't you seen you for so long, you're lovesick?" Liu's joking voice, "Don't worry, in a few days, your cousin's body will be almost better, and your aunt will let you be a flat wife if you are the worst in charge." ”

"Auntie, you shame me like this again!" You can imagine Linglong's shy appearance.

Wang Shaoyan couldn't help frowning, clenched Yun Ting's hand, Xi Cui and Ximei followed closely behind, and stepped into the threshold without hurrying.

"Why is Shaoyan here? Didn't you say that you had an urgent business with your father these days and didn't have time to come over? When Wang Liu saw Wang Shaoyan's figure, he immediately got up from his seat and greeted Wang Shaoyan, "The face is really getting better day by day, but you have to be careful, the imperial doctor sent by the queen mother is still with your father, there is nothing to do here, hurry over, it is rare for the mother to love, this peace pulse is still to be taken every day." ”

Is this the rhythm to drive the son away and concentrate on dealing with the daughter-in-law? Xi Cui clenched her hands, pricked up her ears, and listened vigilantly to the conversation of several people, not missing a word.

"There is no need for a mother to talk to her son so many detours. Today is the first time Yun Ting has specially asked you to say goodbye, I came with me for nothing else just to tell my mother, no matter what kind of person Yun Ting is in the eyes of others, she is already my wife. I also made a heavy oath in front of Mrs. Huai'an Hou that I would not divorce my wife, I would not have a wife, and I would keep my peace. I know what my mother thinks, but I hope she understands what she means. After speaking, he turned to speak to Yun Ting, and his tone was much gentler, "I can't accompany you today." After my mother said goodbye, I remembered to go to my grandmother's place and bring the gifts I bought for my grandmother when I went out a few days ago. ”

Yun Ting nodded. Before going out, Xi Cui said that when you get here, just salute, and don't open your mouth if you can. Say less, make fewer mistakes.

After Wang Shaoyan finished speaking, he left, without even looking at Liu. Liu Shi looked at the figure of his son outside for a long time, and his eyes were covered with a layer of frost. The words are so ruthless, if you don't divorce your wife, you don't have a flat wife, and you have to keep safe! Is Mrs. Huai'an Hou? Do you really think that you can take advantage of my son's weakness to make me willingly let a fool sit firmly in the position of the royal family's daughter-in-law? What I hate the most in my life is that others hit my children with their ideas, and you Huai'an Hou Mansion has used Shaoyan again and again to think that I will let you go, it's just a fool's dream!

Wang Shaoju, who had been sitting inside without speaking, lowered his head. When Yun Ting saw the dark blue figure after leaving yesterday, she guessed that something would happen, but she didn't expect it to be so fast. Even if my brother wants to confront my mother like this, it should be sad to see my mother's appearance, and my brother must feel uncomfortable. But I don't know what kind of trouble Yun Ting will encounter next for her mother.

Wang Shaomei plucked Wang Shaoju with cold eyes, she has always been a harmful spirit! If it weren't for Yun Ting going to you yesterday to send you some bullshit calligraphy and paintings, would today's incident have happened? will be flirtatious, pretending to be pitiful and innocent!

Only Linglong came over with a smile, took Liu's arm, and said with a smile, "Auntie, my cousin is really affectionate and righteous!" But my cousin's maiden family is also a bit excessive, haven't we all agreed to be the daughter-in-law of my cousin-in-law's royal family? Then why do you want to force your cousin to make a heavy oath! It doesn't matter if you simply believe it, but our Wang family can't believe it, but aunt, it doesn't matter, but now it's clear that you want to provoke the mother-son relationship between my cousin and my aunt! "Jokes, don't divorce your wife, don't have a flat wife, call me Linglong, who is going to go with all these years of scheming? asked Wang Shaoyan to swear, haha, Mrs. Hou, you really don't know my aunt too much, what she hates most is that others use her children. If you do this, you will only be met with a more frantic counterattack from her.

Sure enough, Liu's face turned blue after hearing this. Turning to look at Xi Yunting standing behind her, she was even more furious. So he flicked his sleeves and stepped over from Yun Ting's side and sat back in the main seat. Seeing that Yun Ting was upset, she simply turned her face to the side, "Didn't you come to ask for peace?" What does the pestle do there? ”

Yun Ting was probably frightened and froze in place. Xi Cui hurriedly went up to hold her hand, only to find that Yun Ting's palms were sweaty, and her whole body was already trembling unconsciously. Xi Cui knew that although Yun Ting was stupid, she could read people's faces, and she knew that this person didn't like her from the first time she saw Liu. For people who don't like her, she instinctively rejects, hides if she can, and if she can't hide, she won't dare to say anything like now. Xi Cui looked at Yun Ting in front of her, and suddenly felt remorseful in her heart, if it wasn't for her own self-righteousness, why would Yun Ting have to face such humiliation? Although she is a fool, but in the end, she is the young lady of the Hou Mansion, where has she ever encountered such an ugly face. Originally, he wanted to protect her, but he pushed her into such a situation!

But Linglong didn't plan to let them go, but stood beside Liu's side even harder, and shouted to Yun Ting condescendingly, "Cousin-in-law, don't be confused, hurry up and ask your aunt for peace!" Amitabha, my aunt didn't say anything, she was scared like this, our Wang family has to enter the palace often, what should we do if we lose our manners when the time comes! ”

Xi Cui sneered in her heart, what a delicate lady. This ability to fan the flames is thoughtful for the Wang family everywhere, how can it not make the Liu family willingly angry?

Xi Cui thought about it, in this case, it is better to kneel down quickly. First, kneeling can be less sinful than bending, and second, Miss's blessing ceremony is really not good. So Xi Cui turned sideways slightly and whispered to Yun Ting, "Miss, let's kneel." ”

Yun Ting hurriedly knelt down and shouted tremblingly, "Say hello to my mother." ”

Liu's face remained unchanged, still looking away, and he didn't want to deal with Yun Ting. Linglong was still standing beside Liu, and asked Yun Ting arrogantly, "Cousin-in-law asked her mother-in-law for An Mofei to get permission from the maid next to you first?" ”

"I ......" Yun Ting didn't dare to reply, so she could only lean back slightly towards Xi Cui, her face was already pale, and cold sweat covered her forehead.

Liu glanced at her, didn't he even speak? How can such a person be worthy of Shaoyan's identity? Everywhere you put it, you can only show shame! So with a cold face, he said Linglong's words again, "Why do you have to look at Xi Cui first?" If Xi Cui doesn't speak, won't you salute? ”

"I ......" Yun Ting still didn't dare to speak, her hand groped on Xi Cui's body, and when she touched Xi Cui's hand, she clenched it desperately, like a person in the water grabbing driftwood.

Seeing that she couldn't open her mouth for a long time, Linglong became even more proud, and said to Liu with a smile, "Auntie, where can my cousin-in-law understand this, I think it's this Diao slave named Xi Cui!" "As long as there is no Xi Cui, Xi Yunting is just an ornament. Of course, the Liu family knew what idea they had when they asked this girl to come over, and now they must let the Liu family see clearly that the decision they made was wrong, this Xi Cui is clearly a scourge, and it is not a lucky star at all!

"Oh...... Xi Cui, I didn't see it, you, a slave, can actually command your young lady to do things, is what Linglong said true? I'm not asking you to come because I'm not blocking myself! "Liu is already very dissatisfied with Xi Cui's previous actions, but in the end, he wants to come, and it is a pity that this chess piece is still useless and gives up like this.

Xi Cui kept kneeling, raised her head and looked at the Liu family without the slightest dodge, she must now make herself valuable here in the Liu family, and if she wants to protect Miss, she must protect herself. "Madame, before entering the door, my uncle told the slave maid to ask for peace for the first time, no matter what, I can't make my wife angry, and it is best to please her. Originally, it was agreed last night that the uncle would enter the door and put the young lady here, and then the uncle went out in a cold field, and the young lady tried to coax the lady to be happy. The uncle said that Mrs. loved him the most, and this son would never hold a grudge against him, but he didn't expect that the uncle would change his words as soon as he entered the venue, and the young lady panicked. Our young lady is a person who can't speak, and the words that I prepared all night last night didn't have a chance to come out, Miss Cousin talked to you one after another, Miss wanted to wait for her to finish speaking before speaking, in the end, her cousin had her persuading some of you to extinguish the fire, and the slave didn't remind the master to hurry up and say goodbye. Unexpectedly, after Miss Biao's persuasion, the anger on your face not only did not decrease, but became even greater. In addition, the young lady was born with little timidity, and she couldn't stand the fright, and she was easily panicked when she was suddenly frightened. Miss Fang Cai stood a little high, and her voice was a little loud, and Miss Fang was probably startled by the sudden sound, and she forgot the prepared lines in a trance. The slave maid was also anxious and just wanted to go over to appease the young lady, thinking that this situation had happened before, and after appeasing the young lady, she came back to her senses, and it was only right to hurry up and ask the lady for peace. The slave maid really just opened her mouth to appease the young lady, and the young lady misunderstood, the slave and the maid are really damned! Seeing that Liu's face seemed to soften a little, and slowly turned into an exploration of himself, Xi Cui continued, "Today, my uncle handed over Miss to the slave maid, I thought that the slave maid could help Miss please Madame, but I didn't want to anger Madame, not to mention that Miss would be frightened, if Uncle knew about it, wouldn't I even misunderstand Madame!" Madame does not think that the slave maid is stupid and asks the slave maid from the Hou Mansion to come, which is the blessing that the slave maid has cultivated for several lifetimes, so she rushes to this promotion, and the slave maid must also comfort the young lady well before the uncle sees the young lady today, and must not let the aunt and the lady be divided because of the young lady's affairs. ”

Liu raised his eyes to look at Linglong beside him, but saw that Linglong's face was red and white alternately, and his hands clenched the handkerchief in his hand, as if he was about to wring the handkerchief. After following myself for so many years, I thought it was almost a climate, but now it seems that it is not as smart as the yellow-haired girl in front of me. Linglong is a little similar to when she was young, but unfortunately her temperament is not enough, her ambition is not a bad thing, the bad thing is that she is not very simple in her own thoughts, and what the Liu family has done in the Wang family over the years has also made her have to guard against it. No matter how close the nephews and nieces are, they can't kiss them crawling out of their stomachs, seeing that the brothers and sisters of the Liu family have the intention of taking the Wang family for themselves, how can she, as a mother, not plan for her children? If it weren't for the temporary need for the Liu family to continue to provide assistance for herself in the Wang family, wouldn't she have watched Linglong not take her two biological daughters in her eyes and let it go? Xi Cui can't move now, once he moves, Xi Cui will be left alone by his son's side. It just so happened that Xi Cui's words were leaking in and out of her words, so give her a chance, Xi Yunting didn't move for now, and then waited.

Wang Shaomei finally felt a lot more comfortable when she saw this, from beginning to end, her eldest daughter sat on the side like an ornament, but she, the cousin, was very unkind on it. What is it! Although Xi Cui's words were subtle, she clearly and secretly pointed out that she, the cousin, occupied the magpie's nest. She understood everything, how could her mother not see it? She wants to see how her mother still protects this niece!

Wang Shaoju took a sip of tea, stood up, and saluted Liu, "Mother, since my sister-in-law has already asked for peace, there is no need to worry about the rest, and the time is not early, my brother told me to go to my grandmother's side, it's too late." Saying that, he walked over and gently lifted Yun Ting's arm, "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, your mother won't blame you, let's go to grandmother." ”

Is this really her shy and shy little daughter? If it is said that Wang Shaomei and Liu may not feel anything if they stand up to do this today, Shaomei's temper has been so stubborn since she was a child, but what is the matter with her own submissive little daughter who is also defending Xi Yunting in front of herself? Just because yesterday, Xi Yunting went to Yaju to give her a gift? Her daughter is so easy to buy, why didn't she even notice it before?

Yun Ting's hand kept holding Xi Cui, Xi Cui knelt Liu and didn't say anything, where did she dare to move, but Yun Ting just didn't let go, in desperation, Wang Shaoju could only stand between the two people and simply pulled the arms of the two people and pulled them up together. "Mother...... You just let your sister-in-law go, if you let her kneel for a long time, she will leave a mark on her knee, Xi Cui can't get around her brother even if she wants to cover up this matter! This was the first time Wang Shaoju had spoken so loudly, and even Wang Shaomei was startled.

Liu clenched his hands, but in the end, it was his own daughter, and he was not very close to him, so if he couldn't help but scold a few times, he was afraid that he would not come to see him in the future. Thinking of the current queen and her biological mother Wang Li, although they are biological mother and daughter, they are in the same situation, no matter how much she can't let herself fall into such a field. "Forget it, get up. I didn't expect that your master and servant had no other skills, but you could coax my two sons and daughters into obedience, and if they were willing to treat me as you would treat me, I would be blind to death......"

Xi Cui was actually nothing when she heard this, but when she combined it with the eyes that Liu Shi looked at her just now, it was different, did this mean that she wanted to be more sensible and help her stabilize her children? But can she? The key is that whether she is really capable of doing this well now, but she wants to make Liu feel that she is capable of doing so. Wang Shaoju's concern for Yun Ting is not fake, this is much easier to do, what should I do with another Wang Shaomei?

Linglong only reacted at this moment, Wang Shaoju actually helped them? How is this possible? Wang Shaoju Linglong is also painstaking, in order to do what he likes, Linglong studied calligraphy and painting, and practiced calligraphy hard, but no matter how she pestered her, she was always indifferent, making her feel like a hot face and a cold ass. was repeatedly ridiculed by Wang Shaomei because of this. She also knew that Yun Ting had been to Yaju yesterday, didn't she just give a pair of calligraphy and paintings? She sent not ten calligraphy and paintings to Yaju, but also eight, and thought that Wang Shaoju was as tall as a fairy who did not eat fireworks in the world, but why could she move her heart for them?

Wang Shaomei will not miss any opportunity to be sarcastic, how could she miss such a good opportunity in front of her now? So she smiled and walked to the opposite side of Linglong but stood closer to Xi Cui and them, looked at her with the most disdainful contempt she could imagine in her life, and then shook her head, "Stained, it seems that my brother and sister are the same mother's siblings, and this look at people is so consistent." You said that our Linglong cousin did her best, but why can't anyone look down on one or two? Cousin Linglong, don't be discouraged, fortunately, my mother gave birth to three children, isn't there still me? Or you will use the means to please the two of them on me!" I'm not like them, I don't treat you like nothing! Hehe...... "Because I've always treated you like dung!"

"Okay, Shaomei, how can you bully your cousin like this?" Liu Shi had an angry expression, but what she was really angry about was not Wang Shaomei's attitude towards Linglong, but the way she expressed this attitude! is so simple and rude, without any technical content, it will definitely suffer in the future.

Wang Shaomei didn't mind if her mother was angry at all, just looking at Linglong's lively face was happy enough.

After speaking, he followed Yun Ting and the others out of Heju and walked towards the old lady's Ningju.
