54. Visit Xie Mansion and see the princess for the first time

Back at Jichang Garden, Mama Lan looked at Nangong Mo with satisfaction: The eldest lady has grown up, and she is more decisive than the young lady back then, and the young lady can rest assured if she knows it. Mama Lan didn't think that Nangong Mo's behavior was disrespectful to Nangong Huai's father. Nangong Huai dared to send his eleven-year-old daughter to the countryside for five or six years and ignore him, in the eyes of Mama Lan, he was not worthy of being the father of the eldest lady. What's more, with the Zheng family, the eldest lady married someone like Jingjiang County Wangfu, if she is not tough, I am afraid that there will be no bones left in the future.

Nangong Mo casually looked at the account book in his hand, and said: In the past, Mama Lan's property was taken care of, and now she still has to worry about Mama Lan. A qiē is still the same as before.

Mama Lan nodded, since the death of the young lady, she has decided to guard the eldest lady for the rest of her life, and now the eldest lady is still willing to trust her, she is naturally happy. After hesitating for a moment, Mama Lan said: The dowry that the young lady purchased for the eldest lady is enough, and no matter how much it is, it is not good. We won't buy any other properties, I don't know what else the eldest lady has to do.

Nangong Mo thought for a while and said: In the future, thirty percent of the monthly profit will be taken out, one percent will be sent to the Xie family's academy, and the other two percent will be used to open a good hall.

Miss this is... It's a good thing to open a good church, but... If the eldest lady comes to do it, I am afraid that it will hinder the reputation of the eldest lady. It's not that doing good deeds is good, the eldest lady is a lady who has not been out of the cabinet, and she shows up to open a good hall, and if she is not careful, she will give people the impression of selling her reputation.

Nangong Mo waved his hand and said lightly: It's nothing, don't make a public announcement, and you won't do it in my name. Mama Lan just needs to have the funds ready every month. If you do too many bad things, it's better to do some good things and accumulate some blessings.

Mama Lan is a little funny, the eldest lady is the most kind and filial, where will she do anything bad? But it's always good to do more good deeds, and when Miss was there, we also opened a good hall to help the people, but unfortunately after Miss was gone...... Shaking her head, Mama Lan said: The eldest lady and the young lady are really mother and daughter. It's just that the eldest lady, isn't the Xie family's side not very good. The Xie family is a big family in the end, let's send the money, it will inevitably seem ......

How so? Teaching and educating people is naturally as much as possible. What's more, we are sending the academy, not the Xie family. Xie Hou is an understanding person, and he will not fail to understand what we mean. What's more, in the past few years, the Xie family is only afraid that it will not be easy, Xie Hou is high-righteousness, for the benefit of the world, we should also do our best. Nangong Mo said softly. Contrary to a well-fed military general like Nangong Huai when the country was founded, a family like Xie Meng suffered a lot of losses. One is to support today's expenses, and the other is the division of interests after the founding of the country, more or less they will lose a lot. The Meng family is now empty, and even if one percent of the Meng family's huge family business falls on Nangong Mo's head alone, it will be enough for her to squander it for a lifetime. But the descendants of the Xie family are still there, and not every child of the Xie family can see their position clearly without complaint about the emperor's arrangement. When people are depressed, they have to find something to do, such as having children. The Xie family is just the main family, and there are twenty-one men in Xie Peihuan's generation.

Mama Lan nodded, the old slave doesn't know much, the eldest lady is thoughtful, the old slave will do it. The old slave Ming'er sent someone to send this month over.

I don't have to worry about Mama's work. Nangong Mo smiled, and Mama sat down to speak.

Mama Lan thanked her, but she still sat next to the low stool on the lower side, which made Nangong Mo a little helpless. Mama Lan said seriously: Now that the young lady has so much money in her hands, the one in Caiwuyuan is afraid that her eyes are very red, and she doesn't know if she will come out with any moths. The old slave thought, let's send Changyuan to add a few more stout night watchmen.

Nangong Mo pondered for a moment, waved his hand and said, "No need, I will choose the guards in two days." What is the difference between how to choose the people in this house? Mama has been in the house for the past few years, I want to ask what kind of person my sister-in-law is? Mama Lan sighed and said, "Young lady... The old slave should not say that the young lady is not. But... If the young lady is here, even if she chooses a girl from a military general's family who doesn't know how to write and ink, I'm afraid that she won't be able to marry such a young lady for the eldest young master.

Not good? Nangong Mo frowned.

Mama Lan shook her head and said: It's not bad, if our family is an ordinary family, the young lady will teach her husband and children. The eldest lady only looks at these years, and the young lady has been in the door for a few years, not to mention the housekeeper, and even the power of the steward has not been touched. Even Liqin Academy, if it weren't for the eldest young master, I was afraid that it would be leaking everywhere. I heard that the young lady always complained secretly that she didn't look like the young lady of the Guogong Mansion, and she didn't want to think that she could have half of the young lady's style of the Guogong Mansion. Not to mention anything else, if the princess gets married, if she can't afford the princess's shelf, won't it also make the in-laws' family look down on her? Gentleman... The eldest young master is also miserable. I just hope that the second young master will not ...... in the future

Nangong Mo sneered: If the second brother marries a strong daughter-in-law in the future, then I am afraid that this Chu State Mansion will really be lively.

Mama Lan was silent for a moment, and then she had to shake her head and sigh. If the second young master marries a weak woman like the eldest young lady in the future, it is natural that the two young ladies will be held by the Zheng family together. But if the second young master marries a strong and domineering girl, the eldest young lady will inevitably not be able to suppress the second young lady, and it will become a competition between the two concubines in the future, and even the two young masters who originally had a good relationship will have problems. When the time comes, it will still be the Zheng fisherman's profit.

This... Miss, how is this good?

Nangong Mo said lightly: Why should Mama worry, what does this have to do with us? I asked, but I didn't want to stay in the house and make people stumble during this time.

Mama Lan sighed, knowing that the eldest lady still had a knot in her heart for the eldest young master and the second young master after all. It's just that what can it be, when the lady just died, even she accompanied the eldest lady to shed I don't know how many tears, secretly hating the eldest young master's cruelty.

Nangong Mo frowned and asked: The Tuyi brought back from Danyang went to the Liqin Academy, and the sister-in-law gave a return gift?

Mama Lan was a little embarrassed: Yesterday, the young lady asked someone to send a box of dim sum, saying that the eldest lady had not returned to the capital for a long time, so she had a try. It's just that she was afraid that the eldest lady would be angry, so she didn't say it. The matter of returning the gift does not mean that it has to be more expensive and better, but it is good to be dedicated. It can be seen at a glance with carelessness, and the relationship between the powerful and powerful represents the number of courtesies and affection. Just like the eldest lady preparing a gift for the old lady of the Xie family, if you talk about taking an antique in the precious library is much more expensive than the jade Ruyi, it is more important to consider the old lady's preferences and the wishes of the younger generations. Any antique, even if it is priceless, you can't see the intention at all. And the young lady, in the face of the sister-in-law she has never seen before, even if she first takes a silver hairpin from her head and hands it to the eldest lady, it is better than a box of snacks that the girl sent to buy.

The good point is that you can't be a person, and if you say it ugly, you can't get on the stage.

Nangong Mo closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, it was already dull, just go and tell the eldest brother if there is anything in the future. She wasn't angry that the Lin family treated her lightly, nor did she think she was polite. It's about feeling unworthy for the mother. Meng I was proud, if he knew that there was such a daughter-in-law......

This whole night, there were not many people in the Duke of Chu Mansion who could sleep well. The anger of the Zheng family and Nangong Shu is unwilling to mention it, and the Lin family in the Liqin Academy is also unwilling. Nangong Xu glanced at the Lin family, who was sitting on the edge of the dresser pinching the comb but didn't move for a while, and asked with a slight frown: What are you thinking?

Lin came back to his senses and smiled reluctantly, no... It's nothing. After hesitating for a moment, Lin raised his head and looked at Nangong Xudao: Husband, today... Today's thing...

Nangong Xu raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong today?"

Lin said in a low voice: Today, eldest sister... Isn't it a bit too much?

Nangong Xu paused, opened his eyes and stared at the Lin family. Lin was stared at by him uncomfortably, and turned his head a little wolfly. Nangong Xu's voice was flat, and he couldn't hear any emotion, why did he pass it? Lin said embarrassedly: Although the concubine has no housekeeper, she has also read some account books, and the eldest sister wants to go back is almost half of the property of the Duke of Chu. She's a girl's house... I'm afraid it's not good to pinch so many industries. Father and mother there......

Nangong Xu stared at her and said lightly: Those are all left to Mo'er by her mother before her death, and she should take them. The Nangong family is not short of those industries to live, you don't care about these things, go to Mo'er more when you have time, and persuade Shu'er not to always mess around. Lin bit the corner of his lip and felt a little aggrieved. The Duke of Chu is not short of money, but their life is not relaxed, and their husband and wife only get less than forty taels of silver a month, and the husband's officialdom has to be dealt with, and she even wants to send some good things back to her parents' house, and she has to think twice about choosing a favorite jewelry for herself. But Nangong Mo took away half of the family's property as soon as he went home, and the 800,000 taels of silver tickets his father gave him without blinking, to put it mildly, he didn't have so much money to sell their entire Lin family. How could Lin's heart calm down? What's more, after contact in the past few days, the Lin family also found that this sister was cold and indifferent to the people in their family, and it was not easy to make friends at all.

From the bottom of his heart, the Lin family was not very happy to deal with this sister-in-law who had never met before. In front of Nangong Mo, it seems that she is inferior to her sister-in-law.

Nangong Xu didn't care what she was thinking, just said: Remember my words.

Lin nodded and said meekly: Husband, I remembered.

The eldest lady of the Duke of Chu is back, which is a big deal for the entire elite circle in Jinling. In the past few years, most of the girls in the mansion have been married two years earlier, and the rest are some concubines and the like. And the appearance of Nangong Mo can be said to be the highest-ranking unmarried woman in Jinling City today, except for the royal princess and county lord. Although she has been assigned to marry the prince of Jingjiang County, such a pivotal figure has still attracted the attention of many people.

Within a few days, various families and governments issued posts to invite the daughter of the Duke of Chu to the banquet. With so many posts, Nangong Mo naturally couldn't go to every house, not to mention that she knew very few people in the capital, and it didn't make sense to go. So, Nangong Huai ordered the Duke of Chu to hold a banquet and invite the noblewomen of various families in the capital. First, I will inform the eldest ladies of the Nangong family in the capital that I have returned, and second, I will let Nangong Mo recognize people. After all, only a very small number of the magnates in the capital went to Danyang before.

As soon as the post was sent out, the entire Chu State Mansion was busy. Because it was a banquet for Nangong Mo, it was naturally Nangong Mo who had the final say. Nangong Mo is not a stingy person, with a wave of his hand, all the expenses needed to hold the banquet are paid by Ji Changyuan himself, and he will not be paid from the Duke of Chu State. Nangong Huai naturally couldn't do this, if he let outsiders know, he wouldn't know how to laugh at him. But he also knew Nangong Mo's temperament, and after thinking about it, he directly gave her a thousand taels of silver tickets for her to arrange by herself, which can be regarded as practicing for her to be someone else's daughter-in-law in the future. After all, it's easy to say anything when you're a girl's family, and once you get married, you have to be in charge of the feed, and these things won't and won't work. Just asked a little uneasily: You are not familiar with these, if there is anything you don't understand, let Zheng help you refer to it.

A mocking smile appeared on Nangong Mo's lips, as if he didn't see the kind smile on Zheng's face at all. Said lightly: Thank you father, I will take care of it.

This is a refusal, Nangong Huai didn't say anything, and said after a pause: You just have a plan in your heart. The eldest daughter's rejection of the Zheng family has been so clearly understood, Nangong Huai is by no means a fool, and he also understands that the more he pushes, the worse things will be, and in the end, he will only lose the face of the Duke of Chu.

Sure enough, I just listened to Nangong Mo continue: It's okay to have a sister-in-law to help, tomorrow I will personally visit Mrs. Xie, and then I will also invite the Xie family's aunt to come over earlier that day.

Nangong Huai hesitated for a moment and said, "Trouble Mrs. Xie Hou, is this appropriate?"

Nangong Mo smiled lightly: It will not be better than... Even more inappropriate. My mother and Mrs. Xie Hou also had a very close relationship when they were young, and presumably for the sake of my mother's face, Aunt Xie would not care about pointing out the younger generations. Listening to Nangong Mo's plan, Nangong Huai was completely speechless. He is not completely unaware of the situation of the Nangong family over the years, because of the wife of the family, those ladies who claim to be noble or noble have never disdained to set foot in the Duke Mansion of Chu State. No matter how powerful Nangong Huai is, he can't control what the ladies do, not to mention, the actions of these wealthy ladies themselves are very much a reflection of His Majesty's thoughts. Even if he was angry, he didn't dare to go to trouble. If now because of the return of the eldest daughter, the Nangong family can be allowed to enter the circle of magnates in Jinling normally, instead of relying on his own meritorious support, he will be much easier.

Mo'er's thoughtfulness is that in this case, this banquet is up to you. Nangong Huai nodded, and finally made a decision. Zheng's face turned pale, it was her right and obligation as the head of the house to organize the banquet in the house, and it seemed that the master had no choice but to hand over this matter to Nangong Mo, but it was a fatal blow to Zheng, the lady in charge. As soon as Nangong Huai exited, Zheng's body couldn't help shaking, as if he had seen the mocking eyes of the people in the hall.

Daddy! Nangong Shu shouted nonchalantly: Dad, you decided like this, where to put your mother's face?

Nangong Huai said impatiently: It's just a trivial matter, and it's not that you won't let your mother take care of the house. A girl's family should learn three from four virtues, don't think about fighting for power and profit all day long.

Nangong Shu's eyes were red, and she stomped her feet and shouted: Since Nangong Mo came back, your father should be the only daughter of her, right? Hiding his face and crying, he ran out. Sitting on the side, the Lin family, who was a little nervous, looked at Nangong Shu's figure running out and hesitated, but got up and hurriedly chased out.

Shu'er! Zheng exclaimed distressedly, glanced back at Nangong Huai, gritted his teeth, and said; Shu'er is right, sir... Could it be that the relationship of our family for so many years is still not worth a big lady? As he spoke, he directly drew Nangong Mo out. This series of changes in the hall did not disturb Nangong Mo, Nangong Mo sat calmly on the side and drank tea, looked at the resentful Zheng family lightly, and said leisurely: Mrs. Wan, why are you forcing your father so much? The identity thing is not something that my father deliberately does not want to give you. What's more, these years... Isn't it enough that my father has always refused to marry a stepwife for you, so that the Duke of Chu State does not even have a person to preside over the overall situation?

Nangong Huai, who originally watched his beloved daughter crying and running out, and the resentful eyes of his wife who had been with him for so many years, and Nangong Huai, who was still a little shaken, changed slightly, and his originally softened expression suddenly became cold and hard again. What Mo'er said is not wrong, he has also done his best to the Zheng family over the years. Zheng's identity is not enough to be canonized, he can't enter the palace for banquets, and it's not his fault that he doesn't get looked down on by the noblewomen in the capital, but Zheng's own status is too low. Zheng also has a grudge against him because of this, and he is inevitably not greedy enough.

As soon as he saw Nangong Huai's expression, the Zheng family knew that there was no play. I closed my eyes and suppressed the anger in my heart. Zheng bowed his head and said: The eldest lady has learned a lesson, the concubine knows that she is wrong, and the master forgives me.

Although Nangong Huai was unhappy for a moment, he sighed when he saw the humble appearance of his wife who had been with him for more than ten years, waved his hand and said: That's it, this matter will be handed over to Mo'er. She is the concubine of the Duke of Chu, and she should learn to do these things, and outsiders can't say anything. Just let people go to the account office to pay the money. Finally, after glancing at Nangong Mo, Nangong Huai got up and went out.

The hall was quiet, and Nangong Xu and Nangong Hui sat silently. Nangong Hui looked at the Zheng family with some vigilance, and saw that the Zheng family was in another block. After raising it for so many years, I still can't raise it!

The eldest lady is really a good skill. After all, I still couldn't help it, and I couldn't care if Nangong Xu and Nangong Hui were still present, Zheng said.

Nangong Mo raised his eyes and said calmly: Mrs. Wan smiled.

Where, inside. Zheng gritted his teeth.

Nangong Mo got up and said leisurely: It's nothing, I'll go first.

Nangong Hui also hurriedly put down the teacup and got up and said: Mo'er, I'll go with you. The second brother has something to tell you. Nangong Mo didn't care, nodded, and the two walked out one after the other. Seeing the two of them look like no one in their eyes, Zheng was so angry that he fell on his back, and he was no longer in the mood to deal with Nangong Xu, so he pinched the handkerchief and twisted around and followed. Nangong Xu was the only one left in the empty hall, staring at an ancient painting on the wall for a moment, Nangong Xu shook his head and sighed helplessly.

Early the next morning, Nangong Mo got into the carriage of the Duke of Chu and went to the Xie family across the street. The Xie family also lives in a prominent position in the imperial city, although it does not look as magnificent and gorgeous as the Duke Mansion of Chu, but the area can be regarded as the largest mansion in the entire Jinling magnates. Even the prince, the prince and even the prince's mansion can't compare. Xie Mansion was originally the old residence of the Xie family, after the Northern Yuan Dynasty captured the Central Plains, the Xie family retreated to the mountains and forests, and the old house was occupied by the Northern Yuan people and rebuilt into a palace. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the mansion was returned to the Xie family from the new, and all the forbidden places were demolished, and the Xie family has not been renovated for some reasons, so although the Xie family is large, it no longer has the glory of a hundred years ago.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Xie family, and a handsome young woman came out early with a group of housekeepers. Nangong Mo helped Tingqin's hand to get out of the car, and the young woman immediately greeted her and said with a smile: "This is the eldest lady of the Duke of Chu?" Nangong Mo nodded, and said with a light smile: Mrs. Xie.

The smile on the young woman's face was even worse, and she stepped forward to take Nangong Mo's hand and said: I have long heard the third sister talk about you, just call me sister-in-law. Grandmother and mother are waiting for you, let's go inside.

There is a sister-in-law of Raucie.

Mrs. Xie nodded and smiled: "It is worthy of being the young lady of the Duke of Chu, I don't like those twisting girls." Come, let's go.

The two walked into the gate of Xie's house hand in hand, Xie Peihuan was already waiting at the second gate, followed by a group of young women and girls who were surrounded by Linlang. Xie Peihuan stepped forward happily, Mo'er.

Wear a ring, long time no see.

Xie Peihuan said with a smile: If you don't come to me again, I will have the cheekiness to go to the Chu State Mansion to find you.

Mrs. Xie followed behind, glanced at the ladies with different expressions, covered her lips and smiled: Third sister, grandmother is still waiting. Don't stop Mo'er here.

Xie Peihuan stuck out his tongue playfully, pulled Nangong Mo and said softly: Let's go.

Nangong Mo nodded calmly to the ladies of the Xie family, and let Xie Peihuan pull him calmly towards the courtyard of the old woman of the Xie family.

Grandmother, Mo'er is here! As soon as he arrived at the door, Xie Peihuan shouted crisply. The third lady of the Xie family is dignified and elegant in front of outsiders, but she obviously still has the coquettishness and playfulness of her daughter's family at home. As soon as I entered the hall, I saw a kind lady with gorgeous hair and wrinkles sitting in front of the hall. Old Madam Xie is not dressed very gorgeously, nor is she like many old feudal lords in the mansions of the powerful with gold and jade, inlaid with gold and silver. is just wearing an ordinary sauce-colored moire clothes, a gorgeous hair is carefully pulled up, and the hair is holding two sandalwood hairpins, but the old eyes are rare and clear, which makes people rise up a sense of closeness and awe out of thin air.

Nangong Mo has seen the old lady. Nangong Mo stepped forward and saluted respectfully.

Old Madam Xie squinted, looked at Nangong Mo carefully, and then smiled: You girl has the same image as your mother's appearance when she was young. Come and let me see.

Nangong Mo got up and lowered his eyebrows and said with a smile: The old lady praised it falsely, how can the younger generation be compared with the first mother.

Old Madam Xie shook her head and said: The old body can be regarded as reading countless people, I think your girl will be much better than your mother in the future. The old man has experienced countless things in his life, watching the Xie family go from seclusion to comeback, from the war to the peace of the world today, from the original ambition to today's cautious words and deeds, how can a pair of sharp eyes be comparable to ordinary self-proclaimed smart people?

Old Madam Xie pulled Nangong Mo to sit down beside her, and Xie Peihuan said coquettishly: Grandmother, when you see Mo'er, you don't like your granddaughter.

Old Madam Xie looked at Xie Peihuan with a smile and said: I don't know who Mo'er Mo'er said all day long, why do you blame your grandmother for not hurting you?

Looking at the intimate conversation between the two, Nangong Mo couldn't help but cover his lips and chuckle. She was an orphan in her previous life, and she only had two relatives, her eldest brother and younger sister, and she only had three relatives in this life. In previous and present lives, I have never experienced such a love for my ancestors and grandchildren. Old Madam Xie touched her big pretty face lovingly, and smiled at Xie Peihuan: Look, even Mo'er is laughing at you. You're a little older than others.

Xie Peihuan hugged Nangong Mo's arm and smiled: Mo'er won't laugh at me.

The ladies of the Nangong family, who came in behind, couldn't help but be stunned when they saw this happy scene. Old Mrs. Xie is the old feudal lord of the Xie family, although she is not strict and cold, but among the descendants of the entire family, only the most favored Xie Peihuan dares to be no big or small with her. I didn't expect the old lady to be so kind and kind to the young lady of the Nangong family who had only met once.

It seems that Miss Nangong and her grandmother are really destined. When we first met, my grandmother loved me so much, which made us envious. A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl covered her lips and smiled.

Old Madam Xie glanced at her lightly and said: What do you children know, you old people still hugged Mo Yatou when she was born. It wasn't until the Meng family gave birth to Nangong Mo that his body became weaker and weaker, and gradually the Xie family and the Nangong family had less contact. After the Meng family passed away, the daughters of the Xie family never went to the gate of the Nangong family.

Mrs. Xie Shao said with a smile: I often hear my grandmother talk about Mrs. Nangong's demeanor back then, and when I see Miss Nangong today, I really believe my grandmother's words.

Nangong Mo smiled and said: Sister-in-law Xie praised it falsely, just call me Mo'er.

Mrs. Xie Shao tilted her head, shook her head and said: I suddenly felt that my sister-in-law was called old, my maiden name is Su, and Mo'er still calls me Sister Su, grandmother, don't you say?

Old Madam Xie was obviously very happy to see the juniors mingling, smiled from ear to ear, waved her hand and said: I can't take care of your affairs.

Young Lady Xie winked at Nangong Mo and smiled: Heard? Hurry up and call Sister to listen.

Sister Sue. Nangong Mo was also unambiguous, and shouted generously.

In front of Mrs. Xie, it was obvious that the most talkative person was Xie Peihuan, who was the granddaughter, and Mrs. Xie Shao, the eldest granddaughter-in-law, and although the other ladies had the intention to intervene, they couldn't say anything, so they had to watch the three of them laugh in front of Mrs. Xie. Old Madam Xie was too old and impatient to have too many people in front of her, so she asked everyone to retreat after a while, leaving Xie Peihuan alone to accompany her. Even Young Lady Xie was taken to prepare lunch.

The originally noisy lobby suddenly became much quieter, and the smile on Old Madam Xie's face gradually faded, and she took Nangong Mo's hand and sighed lightly, saying, "You kid... I've been suffering from you in the past few years.

Nangong Mo shook his head and said: The old lady is serious, Mo'er is very good.

Old Madam Xie glared at her and said, "Do you think the old lady is comforting you?" I'm scolding you, old body! If you are wronged, why don't you ask someone to report to us? Although the old body has no ability, he still has some face, and he can still say a few fair words for you. It's good that you ran to Danyang without saying a word, but it seems that we are nosy to come to the door and die. In our families, people all say that they have the same qi and branches, what is the same qi and branches? Now that the old people are gone, can't I, an old woman, even take care of the younger generation?

Although it was not Nangong Mo's business, but listening to Mrs. Xie's lesson, Nangong Mo still lowered his head in shame and admitted his mistake, Mo'er knew that he was wrong.

It's good to know if you're wrong. The old man is not really angry with the younger generation, sighed and said: I don't mean that you did something wrong, although we are girls like us, although it is said that those who know the times are handsome, but if they know the times too well, they will inevitably fall into their own bones, rather than being the slave and flattering, it is better to go to the countryside and stay happy. It's just that you're still young, and you were the one who couldn't rest assured before your mother left......

Old lady, I'm all right now. Nangong Mo looked at Old Madam Xie pitifully and said obediently.

Old Madam Xie nodded, patted the back of her hand with satisfaction, and said, "Good boy, you are better than the three girls in our family." Yuan'er told me everything before, and the old man thanked you for the Xie family. Nangong Mo knew that Old Madam Xie was talking about her donation to the Xie Family Academy, so she shook her head slightly and said: The old lady is serious, Xie Hou is dedicated to the people, and there is no one in her mother's family, and Mo'er can only do this little thing for her mother and grandfather.

Good boy, you can't forget your roots. Of course, Old Madam Xie also knew that half of the remaining property of the Meng family was left to Nangong Mo. Now seeing Nangong Mo donating money to the Xie family's academy under the banner of the Meng family, his heart is even more happy. Although the Meng family is gone, the friendship of the older generation is still there. As long as Mrs. Xie is still there, the Xie family will always have some friendship with the descendants of the Meng family.

Xie Peihuan looked at Nangong Mo, then at Mrs. Xie, and pouted: I always feel that you have done something terrible without me.

Old Madam Xie stretched out her hand to take her granddaughter into her arms, and said with a smile: It's just a matter of the academy, where is there anything big. My ring...... Mrs. Xie obviously remembered Xie Peihuan's marriage, and couldn't help but feel sad. is such an excellent and smart granddaughter, but she is about to ruin her life. This is still Xie Peihuan's good mentality, if it were an ordinary woman, she would have been depressed and even depressed. Xie Peihuan and Nangong Mo glanced at each other, and hurriedly changed the topic and chatted about the interesting story of going to Danyang, which led Old Madam Xie's mind away. Nangong Mo also took the opportunity to talk about the banquet held by the Duke of Chu in a few days, and the old lady Xie naturally agreed to let the eldest lady of the Xie family go over to help suppress the formation when the time came.

An old man and two young people were talking and laughing, and a girl outside hurriedly came in and said: Old lady Qiqi, Princess Changping is here.

Hey? Old Madam Xie was stunned for a moment, and when she saw Nangong Mo sitting on the side, she immediately understood. Originally, she was worried about the face of Miss Nangong Mo's family and the fact that this was not a consensual marriage in itself, but Mrs. Xie never talked about it, but she had to say it now. looked at Nangong Mo and whispered: Princess Changping is a kind person, you won't be embarrassed, don't be nervous. Although the Jingjiang County Mansion is not a good marriage, Princess Changping is Nangong Mo's future mother-in-law after all. This is already a sure thing, since you can't change it, try to make your life the best. and neglecting Princess Changping because she was dissatisfied with the marriage is definitely not worth the loss.

Nangong Mo naturally understood Old Madam Xie's kindness, nodded obediently and said: Mo'er knows, thank you Old Madam for mentioning it.

Good boy. Old Madam Xie nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at her granddaughter who was sitting next to her and smiled, with a little more sadness in her eyes.

Soon, Princess Changping was led in, Mrs. Xie hurriedly got up to greet her, Princess Changping stepped forward quickly to support Mrs. Xie, the old lady didn't have to be polite, the palace disturbed.

Princess Changping is extremely beautiful, and Wei Junmo's appearance is very similar to Princess Changping. Although he is nearly forty years old, he still looks very young. His face was a little pale and indifferent, with a hint of sorrow between his eyebrows, but this was not because Princess Changping was sad at this time, but because of the perennial sadness and depression.

The old man has seen the princess.

Met the princess.

Get up. Princess Changping waved her hand, her eyes swept over the two of them, and soon fell on Nangong Mo's body. Old Madam Xie smiled and said: What a coincidence today, princess, this is the eldest girl of the Nangong family, princess, see if she looks very similar to the girl of the Meng family back then?

Princess Changping looked at Nangong Mo carefully, nodded with a smile: It is indeed very similar to Mrs. Nangong. Come, let Hongu see.

Nangong Mo took two steps forward, Ying Ying bowed, Nangong Mo had seen the princess.

Princess Changping looked at her clear eyes for a while, with a little more smile on her face, raised her hand and took off a purple jade bracelet on her wrist and put it on Nangong Mo's hand, and said with a smile: This was given to me by the queen mother back then, I can't use these bright things when I'm old, let's play with them.

Nangong Mo was embarrassed, this scene seemed to be very familiar... It seems to be a scene of a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law. Although she is indeed the future daughter-in-law of Princess Changping now, but... Yu Guang saw Xie Peihuan's appearance of blinking secretly, and suddenly wanted to punch Wei Junmo's expressionless face.

Thank you, princess, for your kindness. Nangong Mo said shyly.

Princess Changping's eyes lit up, and she said softly: Jun Mo's child has a cold temperament, you have to bear with it. As soon as she finished speaking, Princess Changping also seemed to feel that what she said was wrong, so she had to smile and turn her head to talk to Old Madam Xie. Seeing that Nangong Mo was a little embarrassed, Mrs. Xie also smiled and said to the two: "The old man talks to the princess, and you children should go out to play."

The two of them were blessed, and they said goodbye in unison and went out together.

Behind her, Princess Changping looked at Nangong Mo's back and smiled with satisfaction. Old Madam Xie smiled and said, "Princess, this time you can be relieved, right?"

Princess Changping raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes, nodded and said: "It's a good boy, let the old lady smile."

Old Madam Xie shook her head and said: Pity the hearts of parents in the world, although this child grew up in the countryside since he was a child, the tutor of the Meng family is still trustworthy. It will definitely not be worse than anyone else, and it will not be wronged by the son. Old Madam Xie was also worried that Princess Changping would be angry with Nangong Mo because of the change of candidates in the Nangong family, although she didn't say it on the surface, but what happened to the Nangong family in a hurry to take Nangong Mo back, who was clear-eyed.

Princess Changping smiled: What the old lady said is that the palace is not worried, but... I was really anxious, so I couldn't help but come over and have a look. Let the old lady smile. The sons are twenty-two years old and have not yet been married, and the sons of ordinary families are the fathers of several children at this age. How could Princess Changping not be in a hurry, she only felt that it was because of herself that her son had a cold temperament, not to mention that even the marriage was delayed. Now that I hear that my son has a good impression of the girl his father marryed, where can the eldest princess still sit still? Fortunately, the eldest girl of the Nangong family does look good, and she is not known how many times better than the frivolous second girl. Therefore, what is born of this wife is different from that of a concubine.

Old Madam Xie shook her head, she was also worried about the marriage of her third son, where would she have the heart to laugh at the eldest princess? At least Wei Shizi's marriage can always be resolved, only her third son is pitied......

Princess Changping naturally knew about the affairs of the Xie family, not to mention that it was her nineteenth brother who died early who caused such a situation. It's a pity that if my father and Concubine Lin don't open their mouths about this matter, no one can solve it. If Lin Guifei is determined to ask the third miss of the Xie family to be widowed for her son, then the third miss Xie will be really delayed in this life. Thinking of this, Princess Changping had to sigh secretly in her heart.

Old Madam Xie naturally understood this truth, and quickly restrained her feelings and led Princess Changping to talk about other things with a smile.
