Chapter Fifty-Eight: Patience
As soon as the ceremony was over, the guests began to sit down to eat, all of them were some women in the house, and they got together to gossip and gossip.
Qian Yan didn't expect that not only Mrs. Ming came, but Mingyue also came, and at this time, the old lady arranged for Mrs. Ming and Mingyue to sit with a few people.
Mingyue still smiled so gently: "I've seen my sister a long time ago, and I'm about to come over!" Thinking that my sister must not be available, no, this is not the time to say a few words to my sister. ”
Tilting Yan smiled faintly, lowered his eyes and shook the wine glass: "Sister Lao remembers." ”
Mingyue looked at the tilting face carefully, and inadvertently looked at the cold eyes of the tilting face, those eyes, which seemed to be undisturbed, but they were like a secluded pool, revealing coldness, she finally came to a conclusion that today's Mu Tianyan has really changed.
Mrs. Shi didn't know Mingyue's true face, on the contrary, she liked Mingyue very much, so she smiled and said: "Only you have such a general understanding, Mrs. Ming is so blessed." ”
After Tanyan said about Mu Qianrong's affairs in the Ming family last time, the He family was jealous of Mingyue, and his attitude towards Mingyue was not too enthusiastic, just like Tanyan's lightness.
Mrs. Ming smiled leisurely, covered her lips and chuckled: "Yue'er is sensible, to have such a daughter, it saves me a lot of trouble, where is the blessed me, the princess is also very blessed, the fifth girl is really well-born." ”
He Shi was stunned, probably hasn't been in contact with anyone for a long time, maybe she hasn't heard someone call her the princess for a long time, she is just a little uncomfortable, He still smiled far-fetchedly: "Madame has won the award, my daughter is lonely, the only thing is that she is still close to Ling Yan, and on weekdays, she is still tired of Mingyue to take care of more." ”
Mrs. Ming lowered her head and sandwiched a piece of horseshoe cake: "The princess is serious, Mingyue is the same as sisters, if he enters the palace together, they will definitely take care of each other." ”
As soon as he heard about entering the palace, his fingertips trembled slightly, and the chopsticks fell to the ground.
The bamboo leaves behind him hurriedly picked it up for Qian Yan and put it on a new pair.
"What's wrong with Yan Yan?" He asked with concern.
He smiled bitterly and shook his head. It's not on the side, but she's really scared, the palace is a place to eat people.
It turned out that the Ming family had been preparing to send Mingyue into the palace for a long time, but in fact, he thought about it carefully. If a person like Mingyue doesn't enter the palace, it's really a waste.
The queen, Mingyue, and Mrs. Ming are really like a family.
"My sister is okay!" Mingyue held Qian Yan's hand and asked with concern.
He smiled, glanced at Mingyue, quickly looked away, and said calmly: "I didn't expect that my sister had already made plans." Just now, my grandmother was still thinking that my sister was a very good one, and she was thinking about talking about her family. ”
In fact, Tanyan's words are nonsense, but even so, the old lady will not say anything, because these words show that she cares about Mingyue.
The ways of the world. No, that's not it.
Mingyue smiled apologetically at the old lady: "I'm afraid Mingyue is going to lose the old lady's kindness, Mingyue hasn't promised to marry yet, I'm afraid Mingyue will have to go to the palace in the next year's election." ”
The old lady smiled gracefully: "In this way, the old body wishes Miss Ming a bright future." ”
Tilting his head, he pulled Mingyue's sleeves: "My sister's entry into the palace is naturally excellent, and my sister's appearance and talent must be infinitely favorable." ”
Mingyue glanced at her with disgust. pretending to be shy lowered his eyes, and pushed his face timidly: "My sister is used to making fun of people." ”
He smiled and raised his glass and got up: "I will toast my sister today, and I wish my sister a beautiful future appearance." ”
Mingyue also stood up dignifiedly, covered her sleeves and drank it all: "So, borrow my sister's auspicious words." ”
He sat down lightly. I obviously saw the disdain in Mu Qianrong's eyes.
It seems that the beam between Mu Qianrong and Mingyue is concluded, if it was in the past, Mu Qianrong would definitely stick to Mingyue.
It seems that her sister, is still better than Mu Tianzhi. At least know how to have a face, and when necessary, you still know to take care of face.
Today, Mu Qianrong was the protagonist, but as soon as Mingyue came to the table, coupled with a few words from Mrs. Ming, it obviously stole the limelight from Mu Qianrong.
Obviously, Mingyue realized it, and she smiled coquettishly: "The second sister of the Mu family is really a beautiful person today, and she is more delicate than a flower!" ”
Mu Qianrong smiled coldly and spit out two words stiffly: "Thank you." ”
Mu Tianzhi loves to be obedient the most, and she is busy finding the right opportunity to be obedient: "Isn't it, the second sister is really like a blooming peony today." ”
Mu Qianrong was obviously annoyed by Mu Qianzhi, but unlike those who hated Mingyue, Mingyue was a joke that discredited her and became a noble girl in Beijing, Mu Tingzhi was at most a little clever.
Mu Qianrong took a sip of wine: "Thank you, Sixth Sister." ”
Mingyue seemed to want to say something, but she stopped talking, and finally sighed slowly.
Mrs. Ming began to ask very tacitly: "What's the matter?" Yue'er? ”
Mingyue glanced at Mu Qianrong guiltily, quickly looked away, and said aggrievedly: "I don't know if the second sister of the Mu family is still complaining about me because of the accident in my family last time?" After the second sister of the Mu family left, I really punished the girl who didn't know the severity. ”
This is Mingyue, on a woman's most important day, deliberately mentioning the connection in other people's hearts, but she still said it so naturally.
Mu Qianrong's face sank even more, and she said coldly: "What's the matter?" I don't remember, Sister Ming, don't take it to heart, I have nothing to mention it. ”
Mingyue didn't feel embarrassed, but made an excited look: "Great, the second sister of the Mu family is going to forgive me?" ”
Although Mingyue has a valuable status, it doesn't mean that the old lady can allow Mingyue to repeatedly rebel against the guest in the Mu family, so adding to Mu Tianrong's blockage, isn't it equivalent to slapping the Mu family in the face?
The old lady smiled, but was a little stiff, and said to Mingyue: "What? Is it because the food in my house is not to the taste of Miss Ming? ”
What this means is that Mingyue didn't come to the Mu family for a banquet, just to slap her Mu family in the face.
Mingyue must have understood what this meant, smiled, and lowered her head to clip a piece of fish.
The old lady didn't want to embarrass Mingyue too much, after all, the Ming family's family background was there, and the old lady had to be jealous.
The old lady looked sideways at Mrs. Shi: "Mrs. in-laws, I'm also old at this age, so I wish my children and grandchildren would have something to rely on earlier, and now I'm thinking about choosing a husband for the second girl, and I also asked the wife of the in-laws to help weigh which lady's son is a match with the second girl." ”
Mrs. Shi held the old lady's hand, the two looked at each other and smiled, and Mrs. Shi said, "What kind of wife does the in-law want to find?" ”
The old lady was about to speak, but Mingyue said, "Old lady Mu must hope that Sister Ming can find a good family background." And life will be good in the future. ”
Mingyue's words made the old lady unhappy, the old lady's original intention was to marry Mu Qianrong low, which was also good for Mu Qianrong.
After Mingyue's repeated provocations, the old lady finally couldn't bear it anymore. said: "Miss Ming is still young, she hasn't reached it yet!" Saying that family affairs are all about our old bones, Miss Ming is a girl's family, and some things are too outrageous to say it is not good for the girl's reputation. ”
Mingyue smiled forcefully and said, "What Mrs. Mu said is true." ”
The moment she lowered her head, there was a trace of hatred in her eyes, Mingyue understood, the old lady was idle with her Mingyue to meddle in her affairs, saying that she was worried about getting married before she was too late, which was a loss of everyone's demeanor.
"Mrs. in-laws. Miss Ming is still young, don't take it to heart if she offends you. Old Lady Shi seemed embarrassed when she saw Mingyue. opened her mouth, she didn't know Mingyue's true face, and she always felt that Mingyue was a good one.
The old lady nodded and said to Mingyue: "The old body is quick to talk for a while. Miss Mingyue has always been bold, so she won't take it to heart! ”
Mingyue was still pondering, Mrs. Ming pushed Mingyue, Mingyue reacted and smiled: "Don't mind, don't mind, Mrs. Mu is an elder." It's just for the good of our juniors. ”
Seeing this atmosphere, Mrs. Shi also seemed to be unable to continue, so she smiled and said: "When the banquet is over, let's two old sisters talk about it, this family matter is on the table, and the girls are embarrassed." ”
The old lady thought for a moment. felt that Mrs. Shi's words were also very reasonable, so she nodded, and agreed.
Mrs. Shi looked at Mu Qianrong with a smile: "The second girl is so blessed, the wife of the in-laws has a good personality and loves the younger generations." I didn't break my heart for you. ”
Mu Qianrong smiled and said to the old lady with gratitude: "Grandmother's heart, granddaughter understands." ”
Mingyue sighed: "It's a pity, my grandmother went early, and the second sister of the Mu family is so blessed to have a kind grandmother like Mrs. Mu." ”
Mu Qianrong smiled, not wanting to deal with Mingyue.
It doesn't mean that Mu Tingzhi doesn't want to pat the old lady's ass, so Mu Tingzhi said: "Yes, I feel that I am too happy, and I have my grandmother to take care of everything on weekdays." ”
Tanyan coughed twice unconsciously, and then looked at Mu Tianqui, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
Mu Tingquin and Mu Tingwei, the former doesn't want to cause trouble, after all, trouble comes from the mouth, and they just want to live in the Mu family in peace. The latter is too deeply hidden, judging from the fact that she fell into the water, and whether she doesn't open her mouth, or if she opens her mouth, she will put you in danger, she is a temporary peace, and when the time comes, she is the most terrifying.
"What's wrong with the fifth sister?" Mu Tianwei's eyes widened, and she asked matter-of-factly, "But it's uncomfortable?" ”
Originally, it was just a small gesture, but as soon as she said this, the old lady noticed it, and asked with a smile, "What?" The five girls are questioning what the six girls say? Let's talk to my grandmother! ”
As if he was a good elder who respected the ideas of his children and grandchildren, he shook his head: "No, my throat is a little uncomfortable, maybe I got a cold yesterday." ”
As he spoke, he pretended to cough twice and smiled weakly: "Thank you, Fourth Sister, for your concern." ”
Mu Qianwei smiled and lowered her head restrainedly: "They are all their own sisters, they should be." ”
Tilt Yan nodded.
I really can't stand the scene at this time, maybe in the past and present life, what she hates the most, the most unadaptable, will never be sincere.
Or like Mu Qianzhi's, it can't help but make people uncomfortable.
Obviously, Mrs. Shi saw the embarrassment of Yan Yan, and held the old lady's hand with a smile: "I am also tired when I look at Yan Yan, she has always been in bad health, why don't I ask my in-laws for a favor, and let Yan Yan go out to breathe?" ”
The old lady wants to save face the most, smiled tolerantly and generously, and looked at her face with love: "The five girls are also my granddaughters, and I naturally feel hurt, if the five girls feel bored and go out for a walk." ”
