Chapter 23: Domineering Sister-in-law
The eldest son of the Weiguo Mansion married the young lady of the Lailing Qiu Zuo family, who was known as Mrs. Dou, and Mrs. Dou affectionately held Mrs. Xie's hand and complained: "Look at me so busy, I just finished accepting Mrs. Nancheng Hou, and a few concubines asked people to come to the Buddha beads a little, and I hurriedly went to the spirit to make offerings, but I didn't have time to greet you." β
Mrs. Xie patted Mrs. Dou's hand: "I know you're busy, how can I pick on you at this time?" Leave me alone, you're going to have a lot to do today. β
"You go to the house to rest for a while, the second prince will come to worship his grandfather in person in a while, I have to prepare well."
Mrs. Xie nodded slightly, let go of Mrs. Dou's hand, what an elegant and warm meeting of a noble lady, full of stinky and shameless show-offs, Luo Jin looked at Mrs. Dou walking like a proud rooster erecting its own cockscomb, Xie Menghua was still silent, Xie Mengxi was yawning, and only Luo Jin and Xie Mengyao understood the smell of gunpowder.
Xie Mengyao preemptively said: "Mother, if the second prince comes, Second Madam Dou must have a lot of things to do, Mrs. Dou is right, you go to the house first, Second Madam Dou must know that you are considerate of her." β
Mrs. Dou, who had not gone far, trembled, obviously she didn't like to hear this, when Uncle Dou married his wife, the Weiguo Mansion was not so favored, and at that time marrying Mrs. Dou was a good match, and when the second master Dou married his wife, the Weiguo Mansion had already flown up the branches, and of course she was married to a phoenix, and her mother's family was so hard that Mrs. Dou, who was a sister-in-law, couldn't raise her head.
At the critical moment, Mrs. Dou also came to the ground, and directly handed over the power of the family to Mrs. Dou, Mrs. Dou said how busy she was, but in fact, she just gave someone a hand.
Xie Mengyao has made meritorious contributions! As soon as he opened his mouth, he poked Mrs. Dou's death hole and won Mrs. Xie's touch, Mrs. Xie said to Xie Mengyao lovingly: "Good boy." β
Qian Luojin was shocked, Mrs. Xie, don't you think your good boy is quite scary? An older young girl like Luo Jin understands the-for-tat confrontation between two women, Xie Mengyao is really young, and she has already understood the set of hidden needles in the cotton, it is a pity that this child does not go to the palace, Luo Jin thought with a sigh, if Xie Mengyao enters the palace, she will definitely be able to perform a "The Legend of Meng Yao".
Meng Sanniang also came, happily coming to find the Xie sisters. "I knew you were coming, too, great, we could pass the time by talking together." The age gap between Meng Sanniang and her two sisters is very large, but they treat the girls of the Xie family as sisters, one by one, and one is missing: "What about Sister Menghua?" β
"Being dragged by a few Hou Ye and Mrs. to speak, no one cares if it is like us, it is blown away by the wind." Xie Mengyao also made a blowing movement as she spoke, and the words of self-pity came out of her mouth.
Meng Sanniang smiled when she heard this, she was at the age of marriage, of course she knew about this matter, a few Mrs. Hou wanted to talk about a daughter-in-law, and then thought that the family was also Zhang Luo's own marriage, and couldn't help blushing slightly.
"Third Sister Meng is so cold that her face is red, let's find a place to shelter from the wind!" Xie Mengxi thoughtfully thought about Meng Sanniang.
Qian Luojin almost laughed, and echoed Xie Mengxi with a bad eye: "Sister Meng San's skin is delicate, and it turns red when the wind blows, find a place to hide~"
Meng Sanniang really wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, but she was embarrassed to be pulled by Luo Jin and Xie Mengxi left and right.
The four girls walked and talked.
"I heard that the second prince will come, Sister Meng San has seen the second prince, right?"
"I saw it from afar at the palace banquet."
"The sixth prince is so good-looking, the second prince is the elder brother of the sixth prince, he must be very good-looking, right?"
Xie Mengyao poked a finger at Xie Mengxi's head: "The second prince and the sixth prince are not the same mother. β
"It's not like it, the second prince looks like the emperor, and the sixth prince and the third prince look very much like the queen."
"What does the emperor look like?"
Meng Sanniang couldn't think of how to describe it for a long time: "Your Majesty...... The emperor looks like the queen mother, oops, I can't say it. β
A few handkerchiefs are walking, and another group of handkerchiefs are coming across the opposite side, and the group of handkerchiefs on the opposite side has a peculiar structure, two tall girls, one thin and one fat, with a short girl in the middle.
Seeing the little girl walking with her toes in the middle, Luo Jin chuckled in her heart, she was really wronged, she slowed down and wanted to hide behind Meng Sanniang, but was stared at by the girl at a glance: "You! β
This girl is Zhu Chengbi, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion who was miserable by Luo Jin in Sanqingguan, Zhu Chengbi's eyes widened as soon as she saw Luo Jin, like a fighting, if she had a sharp mouth, she would definitely go up and peck Luo Jin twice.
Looking at Zhu Chengbi's expression and Luo Jin's dodging appearance, Xie Mengyao guessed: "Cousin Luo Jin, do you know Miss Zhu?" β
"It turns out that you are the new Miss Qian from the Zhenguo Mansion." Zhu Chengbi raised her small eyebrows contemptuously, although she didn't know that the person who pit her that day was Qian Luojin, she had already heard the name Qian Luojin.
Luo Jin herself didn't know her name, and word of mouth spread among the idle and boring housewives in the capital, "The granddaughter of the Zhenguo Mansion looks really like Shumin when she was a child, and she must be a beauty like her mother when she grows up." "Don't look at that kid growing up in Weiling, it's no different from the ladies in the capital." "I think the young lady in our capital is not as good as her knowing etiquette."
Zhu Chengbi's mother also heard these words, and when she went home, she counted her cheating father's daughter: "Look at Miss Qian, or from Weiling, how about the young lady who grew up in your capital?" People give their mothers a long face, you are ashamed of me! β
Luo Jin also played the role of "someone else's child" without knowing it, and the hatred value in Zhu Chengbi's heart was even higher.
Luo Jin poked her head out from behind Meng Sanniang: "No, I saw the majesty of the daughter of the Prime Minister last time, and I couldn't help but be scared when I saw Miss Zhu." β
"Hmph, you know each other, now you know my majesty?"
Meng Sanniang and Xie Mengyao looked at each other, they both felt that Luo Jin was sarcastic about Zhu Chengbi, even the youngest Xie Mengxi could hear that Luo Jin was having something to say, and the tall girl behind Zhu Chengbi couldn't stand it anymore, and lowered her head and said in Zhu Chengbi's ear: "She is sarcastic about you." β
Zhu Chengbi's face flushed: "You dare to sarcastically mock me!" β
Xie Mengyao hurriedly came out to persuade peace: "Miss Zhu, Luo Jin is young and ignorant, don't be like her." β
"Who are you? I only know that Mrs. Xie of the Zhenguo Mansion only gave birth to a daughter, when did she give birth to you again? β
This time it was Xie Mengyao's turn to blush, and she was the one who died, and was taken out by Zhu Chengbi to laugh in public, and the two tall girls behind Zhu Chengbi looked at her and snickered, which embarrassed Xie Mengyao even more.
The tall and thin girl is the fourth lady of the Zuodu Yushi Wei family, and the fat and tall is the second miss of Jiang Shilang's family.
Meng Sanniang couldn't see Xie Mengyao being insulted in person, and said, "Miss Zhu is walking well, why do you want to hurt people like this?" β
Miss Wei Si squinted at Meng Sanniang: "Isn't it just the daughter of the imperial doctor, you sisters are really interesting, one by one to drill into the Zhenguo Mansion, the imperial physician Meng has not mentioned the grade for many years, but his daughters are in a hurry." Laughing with Miss Jiang Er.
Meng Sanniang was so angry that she was dizzy, her second sister was good friends with Second Master Xie, and often went to the Zhenguo Mansion to help Xie Second Master see a doctor, she herself fell in love with the daughters of the Xie family, and she had nothing to do with the door of the Zhenguo Mansion, and it was so unbearable in their mouths.
With the help of two powerful mouth cannons, Zhu Chengbi also came to the spirit, pointing to the three sisters of the Xie family and defining them one by one: "The daughter of a businessman and the daughter of two aunts, it is also a shame that the three of you can come here with a thick skin." β
The daughter who is known as a businessman has no lethality to Qian Luojin at all, she is proud of her wealth, and she never thinks that the two cousins are lowly, but Zhu Chengbi's tone made her very unhappy.
"You can all come here, what's the matter, the daughter of our Zhenguo Mansion can't come?" Xie Menghua walked over, saying word by word, not annoyed, but loud.
Miss Wei Si and Miss Jiang Er saw Xie Menghua, lowered their heads, and sneered, that is, Zhu Chengbi was also a little lacking in confidence in Xie Menghua, although her father Prime Minister Zhu had a high official character, he did not have a title, and he could not compare with the Zhenguo Mansion.
"Weβwe're joking." Miss Wei Si said humbly that she couldn't even deceive herself.
Luo Jin is staring at Xie Menghua now, and she always feels as if there is a photo frame next to her, and she is shining in the photo frame. Xie Menghua is usually the most disdainful of their sisters-in-law and businesswomen, and when she was bullied, she ran over to support her, girl, this is a disease called tsundere, do you know?
"The second prince and the sixth prince are here, and my mother asked me to call you to the ceremony."
"Mu Congjin is here?" Luo Jin was overjoyed, especially when she had just been bullied by Zhu Chengbi, she really wanted to wipe her snot and tears on Mu Congjin immediately, and complain to him about how difficult it was to live in ancient times.
Zhu Chengbi frowned and looked at Luo Jin, sure enough, she was a hillbilly, calling the prince by her name, and her mother even said that she knew etiquette.
Luo Jin enthusiastically wanted to take Xie Menghua's hand and walk together, Xie Menghua glanced at her, pulled her hand back dignifiedly, and walked alone in front of the steps of a celebrity. Luo Jin looked at it and wanted to laugh, obviously she was a sister control, so she had to pretend to be a domineering sister.
Mu Congjin actually came over on behalf of the three princes, the emperor wants to bury the Duke of Wei Guo with the gift of the prince, the third prince is of course the prince of class to attend, how can the queen swallow this breath, her father is the prince of the country, her father is not dead, if he really gives the Duke of Weiguo this face, wouldn't he admit that Concubine Li stepped on her head? The queen couldn't sweep the emperor too much, so she compromised and sent her youngest son, the sixth prince, to the Weiguo Mansion instead of the third prince, so as to give Concubine Li face and not hit her own face.
The second prince looked like Qian Luojin didn't expect, his dark skin was alive and well in Shanxi and he dug coal, and the words used to describe the handsome man in the novel could not be used on him, he was already young, and it seemed that there was no possibility of a male college being eighteen, and he was destined to be insulated from his appearance in this life.
Now the scene is too big and there are too many people, otherwise Luo Jin really wants to congratulate Mu Congjin, he is already lucky that he did not wear it on the second prince, if the second prince looks like he goes to participate in the strongest competition, Luo Jin will believe it!
Luo Jin found the opportunity to wink at Mu Congjin, Mu Congjin reluctantly gave her a wink, Mu Congjin was very congested, cooperate with her, it's too naΓ―ve, ignore her, and I'm afraid that she will return to Weiling to retire and wait for death.
Mu Congjin decided to stabilize Luo Jin first, so that she would be willing to stay in the capital, and when her family found her good in-law in the capital, she couldn't leave if she wanted to.
