Chapter 197: Reward
On the other side, the news that Wen Mengfan had forcibly broken into Xia Xue'er's yard had been revealed, and when the maid went to return to Liu's family, she did not say it quietly, but in front of all the ladies in the garden, the voice was enough to make everyone present take this matter into their ears, and the beggar Yan clan immediately turned gloomy.
Liu Shi looked at the "flustered" maid and reprimanded loudly: "Miss Wen Si is dignified and polite, everyone is beautiful, how can you be a cheap maid who can arrange it at will?!" ”
The maid knelt down with a plop and hurriedly explained: "Madam Mingjian, even if you borrow ten guts from the slave maid, the slave and maid don't dare to make up such a thing!" ”
Only then did Liu gather the anger on his face, frowning and asking, "Is it true?" ”
"The slave and maid are guaranteed by the head of the neck!"
Liu glanced at the Duchess of Qingguo and Mrs. Xia present, both of them had a gloomy face, and there was a little more real fire in the eyes of the Qi Yan family, but Mrs. Xia's eyes were calm and abnormal. Then he looked at the maid and asked, "Do you know what's going on?" ”
"It seems that it was because Miss Wen Si and Miss Xia San lost the horse race, so this ......"
"Shut up!"
Without waiting for the maid to finish speaking, the beggar Yan clan scolded loudly, and even scared the maid so much that she trembled, and she didn't dare to say anything more!
As soon as she spoke, everyone present was convinced of the conjecture in their hearts. It's nothing if Miss Wen Si loses the game, after all, winning or losing is a common thing, not to mention that it's just a game for two young ladies who live in seclusion? But after she lost the game, she went to find trouble with the person who won, which showed that the Qingguo Mansion had lost her upbringing, and the daughter she taught not only couldn't afford to lose, but also had poor conduct!
For his daughter's temperament, the Qiyan family naturally understands, and has always been unable to tolerate half of the unsatisfactory, and it is just that she is in the house on weekdays, and the sisters will let her, but today in front of so many ladies, it is really embarrassing!
As a mother, the most nervous thing is her daughter's situation compared to the lack of light on her face. This matter is in an uproar and everyone knows it, and the impression of her daughter in the eyes of others will definitely be greatly reduced, which is very unfavorable to her future relatives, and the person she offended is not someone else, but the scandalous girlfriend of the sixth prince, if the sixth prince learns about this, the daughter's situation, and even her husband's future will be greatly affected! According to her father-in-law's temperament, losing the face of the Qingguo Mansion also hindered the promotion of the prince, how could he let her go lightly?!
Mrs. Xia sat diagonally opposite her, it was good to see her face at this time, Qi Yan stood up and looked in the direction where Mrs. Xia was, Mrs. Xia also raised her head to meet her gaze, but did not stand up. She is the emperor's imperial concubine, and she is higher in rank than the county lord of the nomadic kingdom attached to the Qiyan clan.
"There must be a misunderstanding behind this matter, Mengfan is a little willful, but he will not be so rude and presumptuous, please Mrs. Anguo don't blame the little girl!" The smile on his face is hard-pulled, and he can't help but be a little ugly.
Mrs. Xia smiled slightly, but the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes, her red lips opened lightly, and her voice slowly poured out: "Between children, there will inevitably be some contradictions, not strange." ”
When Qi Yan heard this, he forced a smile again, but his heart was already angry!
In the small courtyard, Wen Mengfan didn't dare to be too presumptuous because she was afraid of Xia Xue'er in her heart, but she had no place to be angry in her heart, so she sat on the wooden fence under the porch, Xia Xue'er was still playing with the jade flute in her hand, and neither of them spoke, and the courtyard was rarely quiet.
When Liu took Qi Yan and Mrs. Xia into the courtyard, they saw such a scene: Wen Mengfan was sitting on the railing, holding his right wrist with his left hand, his lips were clenched, and there were tears in his eyes. Xia Xue'er leaned against the pillar, playing with a crystal moist jade flute in her hand over and over, but her eyes were cast through the wall paved with golden glazed tiles, and she didn't know where she fell.
Just looking at this scene, it's not like Miss Wen Si broke into the yard to find trouble for Miss Xia San as the maid said, but it looks like Miss Wen Si was bullied by Miss Xia San! A hint of suspicion flashed in the eyes of the Qi Yan clan and the Liu clan, and then they accelerated their pace even more.
Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Xia Xue'er turned her gaze, saw the person who came, a look of anticipation flashed in her eyes, and she bent down and bowed to the three elders.
Liu Shi was the first to speak, but the atmosphere was too stiff and embarrassing, and he asked in a somewhat relaxed tone: "Yo yo yo, what's wrong with the two of you?" ”
Hearing the sound of questioning, Wen Mengfan seemed to come back to his senses, raised his head and saw his mother at a glance...... The grievances that had been hidden in his heart came up in an instant, and he stood up and threw himself into Qi Yan's arms.
Qi Yan, who was going to "teach" her daughter in front of the two ladies, felt the slightly trembling body of her daughter in her arms at this moment, and the tears that had poured out and wet her chest had already been extinguished, and she only patted her daughter's back vigorously and comforted her in a low voice.
The time for the three sticks of incense has passed, and the three teams of people and horses who entered the woods to hunt have left the forest one after another, and they all returned with full loads. The three princes led by the prince are all full of confidence, riding on horseback, and there is a sense of majestic and high-spirited shock.
When it was time for liquidation, in the end, the third prince won the top spot by a narrow margin, and the eighth prince was 35 points behind the sixth prince and became the last one.
In this hunting competition, the six princes hunted a blind bear and became the one with the highest single score, and he rewarded the blind bear to An Guohou on the spot.
"Winter is coming, and it is very warm to put this hair on the cloak!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
An Guohou naturally knew the meaning of the words of the six princes, and stepped forward to thank him in the envious eyes of everyone.
This blind bear is obviously rewarded to An Guohou, but in fact it is given to Xia Xue'er, the daughter of An Guohou's Mansion, and the scandal that has been widely known to everyone is even more solid at this moment. Thinking of the old lady of Anguohou's Mansion holding a banquet in the Orchid Garden in the western suburbs, Sun Guifei worked tirelessly to go out of the palace to the banquet, and spoiled the third lady of Anguohou's Mansion in every way at the banquet, at this time, the six princes rewarded the bear blind man again, and clearly said that Anguohou would peel off the bear's blind man's hair and inlay it on the cloak for his daughter, is it announcing to everyone present that Xia Xue'er is really going to become the sixth princess?
It seems that the emperor's marriage is just a matter of these days!
ps. It's been a busy day today, and it's really sent up by stepping on the tail of zero, don't care, don't worry about it, the ticket still has to be given! (To be continued.) )
