"Madame, what are you doing?"

Yun Yao grabbed Mrs. Cui and Little Lady Cui one by one, with a smile in her eyes: "Madam and Little Lady are rare guests, you came to make me flattered, hurry up, let's go into the house and talk." ”

Yun Yao's gentle words, warm and thoughtful, made Cui Xiaoniang quite surprised, thinking that Yun Yao sneered at them with a cold face yesterday, she thought that this Mrs. Qi had a bad temper and was arrogant, but she didn't expect it to be such a kind person.

Mrs. Cui is not surprised, she is the wife of the head of the Cui family, and she is the wife of the Cui family, so she naturally has a lot more knowledge than Cui Xiaoniang.

She understands in her heart that the wives of these big families in Chang'an City, none of the wives of those high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the past are fuel-efficient lamps, they are all the first set of people and the last set of people, they look kind and amiable in front of people, and they will not attract jealousy and hatred when they speak generously, let alone cause disasters and trouble for the family, but after people, who knows what kind of virtue it is.

For example, Yun Yao, the Cui family and the Qi family do not have any friendship, but she came to visit, Yun Yao is so thoughtful and meticulous, I don't know that I think the Cui Qi family has been friends for many years, but what about behind this thoughtfulness? Mrs. Cui knew that if she provoked Yun Yao a little, she was afraid that Yun Yao would immediately turn her face and turn around and rectify her with all her might.

While entering the house with Yun Yao, Mrs. Cui smiled, very vigilant in her heart.

After sitting down, Mrs. Cui said: "My girl told me about yesterday's incident, I really don't want to go, the child is not sensible and talking nonsense outside, if there is anything that disturbs you and Lord Qi, please Haihan." ”

After saying this, Mrs. Cui didn't wait for Yun Yao to say anything, and immediately gave Mrs. Cui a look: "You kid, don't hurry up and give Mrs. Qi the guilt." ”

Cui Xiaoniang stood up immediately, and saluted carefully with a white face: "Madame, don't be like me, my children are ignorant and talk nonsense, don't take it to heart." ”

Yun Yao smiled and hugged Cui Xiaoniang: "What is this, what should not have happened yesterday, it turns out that you are not the only one who said those words, there are so many people on the edge of Qujiang, if I care about where to come, good boy, don't let your mother be scared, hurry up and sit down and eat some tea fruit." ”

Little Lady Cui instantly had a good impression of Yun Yao, smiled gently, sat down on the chair in response, and really took a sip of tea and ate some fruit.

Yun Yao turned her head and said to Mrs. Cui again: "Madame is really too worried, my father-in-law and I are not such small-bellied chicken intestines, but we will not hold a grudge for a few words, let alone retaliate against people casually, you, don't think too much, put your heart in your stomach." ”

"It's you and Lord Qi who are magnanimous." Mrs. Cui laughed twice: "This girl in my family told me to give me a wild temperament, I dare to say anything outside, and I can't be busy with the aftermath of her all day long." ”

Yun Yao pursed her lips and smiled: "This is also a sweet burden, but whoever has children is not like this, and the two in my family are still young, although they are wild, they can't run out, they can only be wild at home, and when they grow up, they don't know what to do, according to me, your little lady is not as you said, I look steady and generous, coupled with this kind of family foundation, in the future, who can please your little lady can be regarded as blessed." ”

"I lend you good words." Although Mrs. Cui has a stable temperament and knows that what Yun Yao said is not true, who is not willing to ask people to praise their children, Yun Yao's words of praise are thrown out one by one, and Mrs. Cui, who praised early, smiled from ear to ear, and the vigilance in her heart was gone, and she had a good impression of Yun Yao.

Even Cui Xiaoniang called Yun Yao to praise these words, her face was red, and she lowered her head embarrassed.

Seeing this, Yun Yao didn't continue to boast, but talked to Mrs. Cui about the next things.

Cui Xiaoniang is used to calling Mrs. Cui when she is a child, and the back house of the Cui family is relatively quiet, although she is smart, she is also a little naïve, and she is a little ignorant of the world.

She sat aside and listened to Yun Yao and Mrs. Cui chatting about the gossip of various families in Chang'an City, and when she couldn't help but sigh about the experience of a woman who was very good at cooking and was very famous in Chang'an City, Cui Xiaoniang whispered: "If I really want to talk about it, I still want to thank you for once." ”

Mrs. Cui's face immediately changed, grabbed the little lady Cui, and smiled at Yun Yao: "This child, you said those words yesterday, she looked back and figured it out, and felt that what you said was very true, and she would never judge people by their appearance in the future, I really have to thank you for this, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid this child wouldn't have woken up yet." ”

Yun Yao obviously saw that Mrs. Cui had something to say and hid a lot of things, but this was the Cui family's family matter, she couldn't care about it, people didn't want to say it, and she wouldn't ask.

"What's worth it, the little lady is too polite." Yun Yao laughed, and said to Cui Xiaoniangzi: "You don't know that Xie Niangzi, she was very famous in Chang'an at the beginning, that is, Zheng Xiangye heard that she made a good dish earlier, and wanted to invite her to cook in the house when she was feasting. ”

"And that kind of thing?" Cui Xiaoniang was quite surprised: "It's also Zheng Xiang who has a good temper, but it may not be the case if you change someone." ”

Mrs. Cui said with a smile: "Where, those talented and skilled ladies in Chang'an City were extremely sought after earlier, and there was a little marquis who was obsessed with a kabuki, and would rather give up the title than swear to follow him." ”

Listening to these things, Cui Xiaoniang became more and more curious.

Yun Yao shook her head and smiled bitterly: "It's just that Xie Niangzi didn't end well, but she was also blind, she took a fancy to a down-and-out scholar, and took the hard-earned money for the scholar to study, and when the scholar became an official, she disliked her bad background, and went in and out of the dignitary's house all day long. ”

"Huh?" Cui Xiaoniang was taken aback, she didn't want to have such an ungrateful person.

Mrs. Cui added: "This incident was vigorous back then, how many people are not worth it for Mrs. Xie, it's just ...... Alas, no more. ”

Although Mrs. Cui didn't say anything, she couldn't stop Cui Xiaoniang's brain, she whispered while thinking: "That poor scholar must be very good-looking, he must be tall and talented, and he is gentle and polite, handsome." ”

Speaking of this, Cui Xiaoniang covered her face, her face was hot, she thought that her cousin's family was now in ruins, the life of orphans and widows was not good, and her cousin's character seemed to be ...... It seems that he began to haunt himself after the fall of his family.

In an instant, Little Lady Cui understood why Mrs. Cui didn't wait to see her aunt and cousin, daring to love, this was a white-eyed wolf in front of her again.

Mrs. Cui glanced at Mrs. Cui and didn't say anything more, and Yun Yao didn't continue to answer, but discussed the situation in the court with Mrs. Cui.

Yun Yao asked someone to add hot tea, and said with a smile to Mrs. Cui: "In the early years, because of Ding Xiang, the Emperor Taishang forced Zheng Xiang to tell the old Zhishi, and then the descendants of the Zheng family withdrew from the court, and now His Majesty should ascend the throne, and there is a shortage of people in the court. Especially Zheng Xiang's eldest son has his father's demeanor and demeanor, if Zheng Xiang does not come out, I am afraid that His Majesty will call the Zheng family's son to come out. ”

Mrs. Cui didn't want Yun Yao to reveal these things to her, so she was overjoyed, and immediately said: "This is really a happy event, I think how quiet Zheng Xiang was in the court when he was there, and then he was an old man, and Ding Xiang made a mess as soon as he came up, and now His Majesty is majestic and strategic, and Zheng Xiang is going to be enabled, this is really the blessing of our Great Zhou, think about it, Zheng Xiang is also willing to serve His Majesty." ”

Yun Yao smiled: "I borrowed your auspicious words, if Zheng Xiang is willing to come forward, it is really a blessing for the Great Zhou, even my father-in-law admires Zheng Xiang very much, and he still wants to learn more from Zheng Xiang to become an official." ”

Mrs. Cui smiled: "Lord Qi is an upright official, and he is very capable, what else is there to learn." ”

Having said that, Mrs. Cui was quite complacent, thinking of Zheng Xiang's matter for a while, her heart was hot, and she couldn't sit still in the Qi family, so she took Miss Cui to say goodbye and leave not long after.

She walked on the front foot, and Yun Yao went back to the house with a smile, and after changing into her regular clothes, she knocked on the table with a smile: "I didn't think that the Cui family would come to visit, but it was a good thing, and it would not be good to use the Cui family to test the attitude of the Zheng family, but it would not be that the Xianggong did not have a charter." ”

It turned out that Qi Jing and Emperor Jianyuan discussed finding an old minister to come out, both of them liked Zheng Xiang, first, Zheng Xiang was not too old, and he could be an official for a few more years, and secondly, Zheng Xiang was an upright person, when he was the prime minister, he was fair and strict, and he was a rare able minister, if he came out again, he would definitely be able to stabilize the court.

Zheng Xiang is old and steady, firstly, to suppress those who have different intentions, and secondly, to help check for omissions and supplements, so that young officials like Qi Jing will not make mistakes.

In this way, Zheng Xiang is stable, Qi Jing is full of momentum, if the two get along well, it is rare to complement each other, the Great Zhou Dynasty has these two people to contribute, and they will be more and more worry-free in the future.

Emperor Jianyuan thought so, and Qi Jing was also dedicated to the public, only saying that if Zheng Xiang was willing to come forward, he was willing to back down, give up the position of the first assistant, and ask him to assist Zheng Xiang.

Emperor Jianyuan, who admired Qi Jing's open-mindedness and fairness, promised Qi Jing that when the court was stable and Zheng Xiang was weak in the future, the position of the first assistant would still be reserved for him.

It's just that the two of them think well, but they don't know what kind of mentality Zheng Xiang has.

The Zheng family has withdrawn from the court for many years, and there is no one to inquire about the Zheng family's thoughts for a while, Qi Jing is worried here, and he doesn't want the Cui family to bump into him.

The Cui and Zheng families are friends in the world, Yun Yao knows this very well, so she will bother to receive the Cui family's mother and daughter so much, and take out this to ask the Cui family to test the Zheng family's attitude. (To be continued.) )
