After sending off his family, Linglong went to the courtyard of the second lady.

Because the second lady does not live in the house all the year round, she suddenly came back this time, and the house was not prepared, so she vacated a vacant courtyard next to the old lady for her mother and daughter to live in.

In fact, there are more than one or two vacant courtyards in the house, although this courtyard is large and the scenery is good, but it is relatively remote.

The second lady likes to be so lively, it is obviously not a good place for her to live here, not to mention that there is an old lady next to her who has never been used to her, and the eldest lady may have some careful thoughts about deliberately arranging this place.

When Linglong came to the door of the second lady's courtyard, he found that it was not as deserted as expected, and several ladies in the courtyard were chatting with the second lady, each of them with a fifteen or sixteen-year-old young lady who was as beautiful as a flower, and the fifth lady Liang Chenfang and the sixth young master Liang Chentian were kicking the shuttlecock on the side.

Linglong hesitated to go in, but was seen by the sharp-eyed fifth lady.

"Second sister-in-law, what are you doing here?"

Everyone in the courtyard turned their heads when they heard the sound, and their eyes fell on Linglong, and the ladies and ladies with eyes were as curious as scanners and scrutinized Linglong from beginning to end several times.

Linglong was a little embarrassed, but fortunately, the second lady stood up in time and greeted: "Jing's daughter-in-law is here, come in!" Come on in! ”

Linglong went in and saluted: "Erniang, I didn't know you had guests here, it seems that I came at the wrong time!" ”

The fifth lady next to her said neither yin nor yang: "There are people when you come, just don't come!" ”

"Fang'er!" The second lady reprimanded her, and she snorted dissatisfiedly and turned her head away.

Linglong wondered in her heart, why is this little girl so hostile to me? Last time the second lady and the eldest lady quarreled, I secretly helped them, and Miao Dandan said that she didn't see her so big opinion. It's weird!

The second lady took Linglong's hand and said apologetically: "Daughter-in-law Jing, Fang'er is spoiled by me, her favorite is her temperament, don't worry about her, ah!" ”

Linglong smiled: "What's the matter, it's all a family, it's okay." ”

"Come on. Come and sit down. Let me introduce you: This is Mrs. Lei and Miss Lei of Huai'anhou, this is Mrs. Tang and Miss Tang of the Ministry of Works' family, and this is the wife and miss of the cabinet bachelor Yu Daren's family. ”

Linglong greeted them one by one. Although I don't know much about the official ranks of this era, I know that these people are not low, and their official ranks may be on par with their grandfathers.

After everyone greeted each other, they sat down, and Mrs. Lei said with a smile: "Presumably this is the granddaughter of Su Laolang's family, right?" Master Su, he has been an official for many years. The popularity in the DPRK is very good, but it's a pity that he is older. Otherwise, he would have been promoted to the rank of Shangshu long ago, right? ”

Mrs. Tang next to her took over the conversation with a smile: "Today's Hubu Shangshu has the title of Cabinet University Scholar, he is busy with affairs, and he doesn't care much about the affairs of the Hubu, although Lord Su is a waiter." In fact, he is in charge of the entire household. ”

"Yes, the household department is in charge of the treasury of this dynasty, and it is an important position among important positions. If it weren't for the emperor's cronies, he would never be able to do such an errand. ”

"Master Su is humble and rigorous. No wonder he can still be reused at such an age. ”

"Then there is also a saying, just look at the second young grandmother, you will know that the second young grandmother is knowledgeable and reasonable, and the second young woman is also harmonious, and she is worthy of being the granddaughter of Master Su."

Linglong sat down and didn't say a word, and the ladies on the other side said one after another, and they didn't know whether they wanted to praise themselves or belittle themselves? Or is it openly boastful and secretly sarcastic?

The second lady smiled and said: "Okay, okay, Jing's daughter-in-law hasn't been in the door for a long time, and her skin is thin, don't surround her, look at her embarrassed, I don't know what to say." ”

Several people glanced at each other, smiled and changed the topic: "Okay, don't talk about this, so as not to scare the second young grandmother." ”

"By the way, have you heard about the palace?"

"What's the matter?"

"I heard that there was a new show girl who quarreled and fought with the show girl of the same period and was grounded by the queen, but she didn't stop, cursing every day, and even the emperor and queen scolded together!"

"Huh? And this kind of thing? Is the show girl dead? ”

"But no, I heard that the queen went for a walk near the forbidden palace yesterday, and happened to hear the show girl scolding herself, and the queen was furious, saying that the show girl was crazy and went directly into the cold palace!"

"Cold Palace! Oh my God, that's not a place for people! That show girl's life is over. ”

"Alas, it's no wonder that this show girl is not angry, what kind of place is the palace, even if you are a tree, if you don't say anything, don't eat or drink, you may give birth to right and wrong, not to mention that you are inappropriate and don't want to provoke right and wrong?"

"That's right, that show girl scolded the emperor and queen, even if she doesn't enter the cold palace now, she won't end well in the future."

"Tsk, this show girl's temperament is really unpleasant, and I don't know what her father thinks, what is this temper still sent to the palace?" ……

These ladies talked happily, and even their second wife followed curiously to inquire, and Linglong next to him blushed and sat like a needle prick, eager to dig a crack in the ground and get in.

Sure enough, someone finally brought it up: "Hey, where is that show girl?" What's your name? ”

"This ...... It seems to be a surname...... What's the last name? ”

"Sue? It's Sue, right? ”

The second lady smiled and joked with Linglong: "Daughter-in-law Jing, I have the same surname as you, don't be your sisters, right?" ”

"Impossible, right? The second young grandmother is so knowledgeable, how can she be sisters with such a person? ”

Everyone laughed easily, and Linglong coughed lightly with a white face: "Her name is Su Lingxuan, and she is the eldest daughter of my uncle." By the way, ladies and gentlemen, I am not my grandfather's granddaughter, my father is a concubine, and I can only be regarded as the daughter of a branch family~! ”

The courtyard suddenly fell silent, everyone was embarrassed and surprised, looking at each other at a loss, the breeze blew, the leaves fluttered and fluttered, floating to the middle of several people, the sun was clearly hanging in the sky, how did it feel so cold?

Mrs. Tang stood up first: "Oh, it's not early, my lord should go home, I have to go back quickly." County Lord, thank you for your hospitality, how about you come back in a few days? ”

The second lady also stood up: "Surname, Mrs. Tang can come and sit at any time when she is free." ”

As soon as Mrs. Tang left, the other two also found excuses to leave.

The second lady sent them away, returned to the courtyard, and saw Linglong drinking tea there quietly. She came over and sat down, took Linglong's hand and said apologetically: "Daughter-in-law Jing, I didn't know that the show girl belonged to your Su family, don't you mind!" ”

"It's okay, Lingxuan and I have always been at odds, she has always been that temperament, and it was the eldest aunt who spoiled her."

The second lady thought for a while: "She shouldn't have entered the palace with this temperament." What do you parents think? ”

"This ...... It's a long story. ”

The second lady smiled: "Look at me." Eventful again! ”

"No, Erniang cares about me, it's too late to be grateful. Erniang, there are many guests in your hospital every day? ”

"Hey! You think they're coming for me. Not for my nephew. ”

"I heard that your nephew has been crowned the king of the county? Will you come to stay in our house? ”

The second lady looked at Linglong suspiciously, looked up and down, and then covered her mouth and smiled: "Daughter-in-law Jing, are you also interesting to my nephew?" We're treating you well, aren't we? ”

Linglong smiled: "Erniang." Do you think your nephew is better, or is my husband better? ”

"This ...... How can this be compared? ”

"How can it not be compared? Compare character than appearance than martial arts. Which is better? ”

The second lady thought about it carefully: "In terms of character, my nephew can speak well, but Jing'er is a stuffy gourd, and they have their own characteristics in terms of appearance." Regardless of whether it is up or down, the words of martial arts...... Jing'er will definitely win if he fights alone, but it may not be possible to lead troops to fight! ”

"Is that comparable?"

"Almost!"

"Not true. Erniang's nephew is now the king of the county, but my husband is idle. It's better to be a nephew of the second mother. ”

"This ...... Hehe, you can't compare like this, hey, Jing's daughter-in-law, why are you asking about this? ”

Linglong smiled and said, "Why did those ladies come, that's why I came." ”

The second lady was surprised: "No, you are also beating my nephew's idea?" ”

"Erniang, don't say that, one more choice and one more chance, who knows who the little county king will fall in love with in the end?"

The second lady thought for a while: "Well, it should be easy for your temperament to subdue my nephew. ”

"Erniang laughed, I'm talking about my sister."

"Sister?"

"Yes, her name is Lingfeng, although her biological mother is the second aunt of my family, she was the pearl of Zheng Guogong's palm back then, a real Miss Yan, and later the Zheng family fell to our family."

The second lady was surprised: "What? The young lady of Zheng Guogong's family is the second aunt of your family? ”

"Erniang knows her?"

"Of course I know, I saw her when I came out of the capital, and she once laughed at me for not knowing the rules from a wild place!"

"Huh? The second aunt is so powerful? ”

"But no, she was a talented woman in the capital at that time, and she had a good reputation, so she was naturally very arrogant, and the ladies in Beijing were proud to be friends with her! Pity...... Alas, the human heart is unpredictable! ”

Linglong never thought that the second aunt had been so beautiful, and when she first saw her, she still thought that this girl was kitsch, no different from ordinary aunts.

It turned out that it was not kitsch or arrogance, and she had a sense of arrogance at all times from beginning to end, which she couldn't learn by nature, even if she could faintly see a little bit now.

"Daughter-in-law Jing, how does your second aunt's daughter look? How is the character? ”

Linglong smiled: "Could it be that Erniang is tempted?" ”

"If it can be compared to Miss Zheng back then, you can still consider it."

"That's good, when the little king arrives in a few days, I will take my two younger sisters over and live for a few days, and then I will know."

"Okay, I hope you don't disappoint me, if ...... It would be better to be lucky enough to meet Miss Zheng again! ”

Linglong looked at her: "Erniang, you are too unkind like this." ”

"Huh? What do you mean by that? ”

"You know that the Zheng family is down, and you are the lord of the county, don't you ask her to give you a big gift when you see her now? The second aunt has always been arrogant, and she must think that you are humiliating her! ”

The second lady was stunned for a moment: "I don't have this idea, I just think that the old people are almost scattered back then, and it is rare to meet one and reminisce about the old feelings!" ”

"If that's the case, the next time I go back to my parents' house, Erniang might as well go with me to join in the fun, but as my mother-in-law, I can't use the identity of the county lord to oppress people!"

The second lady was very happy when she heard this: "Okay, I am your mother-in-law, next time I will go, bring a generous gift." ”

Linglong and the second lady had a good conversation, and before they knew it, the sky was dark, and Liang Chenjing came in from the courtyard gate: "Linglong, it's time to go back to dinner!" ”

The second lady looked at Liang Chenjing's unhappy face with a cold face, and smiled: "Jing'er, you are so nervous about your daughter-in-law, are you still afraid that she will lose it?" ”

Liang Chenjing's face became even more ugly when she heard this, and Linglong felt strange in her heart, she got up to say goodbye to the second lady, and walked to Liang Chenjing's side, Liang Chenjing naturally took her hand and asked softly, "How is today?" Is there anything wrong with it? ”

"No, I'm fine, my mother and my younger brothers and sisters came here in the afternoon, and I sent a lot of food, let's go back and have a look!"

"Good!"

Seeing the two leave hand in hand, the second lady was surprised and envious, and shook her head slightly: "I didn't expect that Jing'er, this child, also has a time when she is gentle with women." ”

"Humph! He was fascinated by the bad girl's witchcraft, and the second brother wouldn't like this kind of person! The fifth lady on the side, Liang Chenfang, muttered disdainfully.

The second lady turned around and glanced at her: "Fang'er, your second sister-in-law is good, why don't you like her?" ”

"Why should I like her? Hmph, the second brother is mine, the second brother said that he would marry me when I grew up, this bad woman will marry her only if the second brother is fascinated, I hate it! ”

The second lady was stunned for a moment, frowned and stared at her seriously: "Fang'er, listen well, your second brother and you are half-brothers and sisters, and brothers and sisters still can't get married, just like you and your brother can't get married, don't you understand?" ”

"Nonsense, the last time Uncle Ertu came from Fanbang said that their prince there was to marry his sister as a bride, and my grandfather always said that they were no different from us, since they were the same, why can't we marry their brother and sister?"

"This ...... Isn't that the same thing at all? ”

"How not? We are all married, we are all human, and we are not animals, why can't we? ”

"You kid, this is not Fanbang, it's the capital."

"Then I'll just let my second brother go to our border city to marry me?"

"Nonsense, no matter where you are, we are Han, and we don't have the habit of intermarrying brothers and sisters, and we can't even have a surname, you know?"

"Then I won't be a Han, I'll be a Fanbang person, and the second brother will also be a Fanbang person, and we can be together!"

The second lady has a headache, why is she so tired from talking to this girl?

"Fang'er, you listen to your mother......"

"If you don't listen, you don't listen, I don't listen, sixth brother, let's go, let's go to the old lady."

The fifth lady ran away with her younger brother, and the second lady chased them until the door, and saw that they really went to the old lady's yard.

She stood at the door and shook her head helplessly, she had heard the girl say that she liked the second brother and wanted to be a bride for the second brother, I thought she was playing with novels, but I didn't expect her to think so, the girl will be eleven after the New Year, or she will be allowed to be a family in a few years, so it will be okay to go on like this?

No, you must find a way to get this stinky girl back to the border city. (To be continued.) )
