Chapter 90: The Lantern Festival returns the gift
Although Mengqian didn't like it, Zhao Luoyan went to Yongmei Zhai that night, and then stayed in Tingyuxuan for two consecutive days. With such frequent pampering, Qian Ning really thought that Zhao Luoyan was in love with her. And the rest of the family apparently thinks so, too.
When she got up in the morning to ask for peace, Lian Chengmei kept finding faults, and said for a while that she had worked hard and that she had to help serve Zhao Luoyan, otherwise she would have trouble sleeping and eating while she was pregnant, and then she said that she was not good, and it was rare for Zhao Luoyan to go home to rest, and she failed to fulfill her wife's obligations. All in all, he was pleading guilty on the surface, and his words were nothing more than sarcasm for Qian Ning robbing Zhao Luoyan.
And Tian, who has always stood on Lian Chengmei's side, also taunted Qianning unexpectedly: "Although Lian has a body and can't serve, you can't always dominate Yan'er, pregnant women's emotions are the most uneven, and they need their husbands by their side the most." On weekdays, Yan'er is studying in the academy, and he can't accompany the Lian family, and now it's rare to take a break for the New Year, so you should also remind Yan'er to care more about the Lian family. ”
Originally, because of the discrimination against businessmen, Qianning was very dissatisfied with Tian's family, but the elders couldn't quarrel directly, and now it was obvious favoritism, Qianning was really angry: "A few days ago, I also persuaded my husband to care more about Sister Lian, but my husband said that Sister Lian was not in good health and should rest early, and I was afraid that I would go to Yongmei Zhai to disturb my sister again, so I stopped listening to Yuxuan." Later, I also felt that what my husband said made sense, since even my sister was not resting well, I couldn't easily disturb it. Grandmother, are you right? ”
Carrying Zhao Luoyan out, Tian naturally didn't lose face to his grandson, and had to say with a sinking face: "If you're afraid of disturbing, don't you go over early." It's a big deal to listen to Yuxuan again when you rest at night. ”
Tian Shi found a step for himself to go down, and Qian Ning also knew that he would accept it when he saw it: "Then next time, I will persuade my husband to listen to Yuxuan again when he rests at night." ”
This is not the result that Lian Chengmei wants, come and chat. Pat your ass before going to bed and leave, what is that? It's just that the Tian family has spoken like this, and even Chengmei can't say anything anymore, so she twisted her veil and endured it.
These words naturally reached Zhao Luoyan's ears, and when he heard Yuxuan at night, he stroked Qian Ning and comforted: "Don't mind, grandmother is worried about the restlessness of the house, and she doesn't mean anything else." ”
Qian Ning didn't bother to say anything more. Even if he said that Tian's partiality was repeated, Zhao Luoyan would not admit it, but would hurt his feelings. said casually: "I also think what my grandmother said makes sense, why don't my husband spend more time with Sister Lian during the day." ”
Zhao Luoyan is the most common, although he has a snack about Qianning. But Lian Chengmei's weight in her heart is still very heavy. Hearing that Qianning was so sensible and reasonable, she was also very happy: "I'm very happy that you can think about Mei'er so much, let's get along well in the future, do you say okay?" ”
Qian Ning's mouth was about to cramp, just kidding, didn't he know what kind of character Lian Chengmei had? I'm afraid that I'm about to hate myself to the bone now, and I'm going to talk about getting along well. That is, Zhao Luoyan's soft personality can come up with such a beautiful illusion.
When he arrived at Yongmei Zhai, Zhao Luoyan also comforted Lian Chengmei carefully: "Mei'er, my heart is still towards you." But Qianning is also quite pitiful, besides. Can't let the long house always have no successor? If she is not pregnant, and then the eldest aunt proposes to take another concubine, isn't there another person between us? ”
This is really said to Lian Chengmei's heart, the reason why she has been enduring Qianning is also because of her, Zhao Luoyan has a good reason not to take a concubine, otherwise according to the rules of the family, as soon as she is pregnant, she is afraid that she will be stuffed into her husband's study.
Although she thought clearly, Lian Chengmei still couldn't help but feel a little concerned, thinking about how she swore an alliance at the beginning, and only took one scoop of 3,000 weak water, and finally gave in to reality.
Lian Chengmei felt aggrieved, snuggled up to Zhao Luoyan and said: "What the husband said is reasonable, but Mei'er really hopes that we can be a couple for the rest of our lives, only each other and the child in the womb......"
Zhao Luoyan has always known Lian Chengmei's thoughts, and was also moved by her pure love for herself, and was moved by her sighs for a while, and even hugged her and comforted her.
In the last days of staying in the Hou Mansion, Zhao Luoyan seemed to have found a balance, and there was no conflict between Qianning and Lian Chengmei, until the Lantern Festival.
Early in the morning, the person in charge came in to report that the Li family had sent someone to give a gift. Cui Shi was stunned when he heard this, didn't he give the New Year's gifts before the New Year, why did he give the gifts again.
took out the post and looked at it, it turned out that it was because they had sent Mengying and their dumplings before, and now they have sent the Lantern Festival as a return gift. Although the Lantern Festival is not expensive, it is said that Mrs. Li and Miss Li did it personally, but it is also intentional.
This Li family sent a return gift, which was to give Meng Ying face, indicating that she was very satisfied with Meng Ying, and the Cui family was also happy, so she ordered someone to cook it and distribute it to the ladies and girls of each hospital.
When the Lantern Festival was delivered, Meng Ying and the others happened to be listening to Yuxuan.
The bowls of Lantern Festival with different fillings are steaming hot and fragrant, and they are full of greed. Hearing that it was sent by the Li family, Qian Ning couldn't help but quip: "Look, we still have the blessing of our third sister to eat this Lantern Festival." But I should thank the third sister. ”
Meng Yingfei blushed, and beat Qian Ning with a powder fist: "Sister-in-law bullied me again." ”
Menglian and Mengzhi were also very happy, Mengqian's face was faint, and she ate the Lantern Festival in small bites.
Since that day's conversation, Mengqian's treatment of Qianning has returned to her previous coldness, and even Mengying saw the difference in the state between the two, and specially asked Qianning.
Qian Ning was also inconvenient to talk about the dispute that day, so she only said casually: "It's not, the second sister has always been like this, I'm used to it." ”
After eating the Lantern Festival, Meng Lian asked coldly, "Shouldn't the Chen family also send the Lantern Festival over?" ”
Meng Ying also shouted: "Yes, yes, second sister, maybe the Chen family's Lantern Festival will be sent over in a while, and the dumplings you made that day were much better than mine." ”
Mengqian didn't care and shrugged her shoulders: "Maybe." ”
But until the evening, I didn't see the Chen family send the Lantern Festival over.
Liu's face was a little disappointed: "Maybe their family will pick another gift to send over?" ”
"It doesn't matter if you send it or not, I sent dumplings over that day, and I didn't point to them to send them back gifts." Mengqian still doesn't care.
Liu Shi was a little unhappy: "What do you know?" Is that a regular dumpling? It's your own handbag, but if you have a bit of rules, you know that you should give it back. Looking at Mrs. Chen that day, she was also a courtesy, why didn't she know this little bit of etiquette? ”
Qian Ning faintly felt bad, and asked tentatively: "It can't be that there is a change in family affairs over there, right?" ”
"How is that possible?" Liu's face sank, and for the first time, he said coldly to Qian Ning, "Is this also nonsense?" The stickers have been changed, and the eight characters have also been combined, what other variables can there be! ”
It's no wonder that the Liu family is angry, and the two families are one step away from getting married, and the city also knows that if there is a change at this time, it is tantamount to withdrawing from the family, which will have the greatest impact on both parties, especially the woman's reputation.
But as soon as Qian Ning thought of Qiao Ning, she was worried for no reason, and she couldn't say it directly, "I said the wrong thing, and I asked my mother and second sister not to worry." ”
Liu's "En" was a good idea.
But Qian Ning was still uneasy in her heart, and after thinking about it, she said: "Why don't we take advantage of the New Year's Eve to give Mrs. Chen and Miss Chen a post and invite them to come to the door?" It's also about to get married, so it's good to move around more. ”
Although Liu was also worried, he did not agree with Qianning's proposal: "If you invite it, you can't just invite the Chen family, it will alarm your father and mother, so let's think about it in the long run." ”
Qianning had to give up, but she planned to go down to find out in private, if Qiao Ning really had a private affair, she had to be strangled in the cradle, otherwise the daughters of the Lu family would have to be killed by her. (To be continued.) )
