Although Jian Ying didn't know what Fang Yiyun wanted to ask her for, at first glance, she felt that this eldest lady was an arrogant person. Dealing with this kind of difficult person, she can avoid it, and make friends or something.

Since people love to sit at this table, she can't care about it, so she smiles and doesn't say anything. Sit down in the main escort position and chat with the people around you.

Fang Yiyun didn't seem to sense Jian Ying's intentional snubbing, and she was not in a hurry to talk, while drinking tea, she quietly observed Jian Ying, as if she wanted to study her every move and smile thoroughly.

After a while, the banquet was held, and the delicacies, elixir and jade liquid were brought to the table like flowing water.

Mrs. Fang was surprised and moved to find that there were a few more delicate vegetarian dishes in front of her.

She has been married to Fang Zhifu for nearly 20 years, and after giving birth to two sons and a daughter, it was like being cursed, and she couldn't keep the fetus. After losing two half-bellied children in succession, he became a vegetarian in Buddhism.

When she first arrived in Jinan Mansion, she didn't know the people here. As a first-time guest, it is difficult to inform in advance, saying what you like to eat and what you don't like to eat. Before coming to the palace today, she specially had a full meal, so as not to go hungry to avoid eating meat during the banquet.

Unexpectedly, the Ji'an Royal Mansion quietly inquired about her eating habits, not only prepared vegetarian dishes, but even the wine prepared for her was the best grape vegetarian wine.

Secretly sighing that the palace is the palace, the hospitality is impeccable, it is really careful and thoughtful.

When Jian Ying came over to toast, she pulled her and asked, "How does the second young lady know that the courtiers are vegetarian?" ”

"It was the mother concubine who asked someone to inquire about me." Jian Ying quietly pushed the credit to the Fang clan.

Mrs. Fang knew that this might not be the truth, but she was also happy to cooperate, and she flattered the Fang family very much.

There were a few ladies who were partial to eating and eating taboos who also received special care like Mrs. Fang, and they all echoed it, which really made the Fang family earn enough face.

Meng Xinniang looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with cold eyes and respected each other, suspecting that there was a mistake in her plan, Jian Ying did not ask Zhou Shu to verify the investigation of the cause of the death of the first princess, and was deceived by the Fang family.

I couldn't help but curse in my heart, "One or two are stupid!" ”

She had already hinted at that, Concubine Qi only wanted to come up with such a superficial trick as pretending to be sick. It's no wonder that Mrs. Fang went to visit Pujia Courtyard once, but there was no response.

Originally, I hoped that Jian Ying would make amends and attract Mrs. Fang's attention, so it was best to make a fuss in public and make the Fang family lose face. Who knew that the stupid woman didn't take advantage of the great opportunity, and actually sang "Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law".

Jian Ying wanted to lure Meng Xinniang to the bait, but she was not stupid enough to go against her mother-in-law at such a public banquet. It was not easy to start the reputation of a virtuous woman, if Meng Xinniang destroyed her image because of calculations, she would give up the basics, and the gains outweighed the losses.

So he turned a blind eye to Meng Xinniang's disappointment with disdain, toasted from table to table, and returned to the table where he was accompanied by his host and sat down.

Xiao Ji stepped forward and whispered a few words in her ear, and she stood up apologetically, "There's a little problem in the kitchen, I'm going to take a look, I'm afraid I'll be out of company for a while." ”

The little daughters-in-law hurriedly smiled and urged, "The second young lady just go and get busy, don't care about us." ”

"Then I'll be rude." Jian Ying nodded to everyone, said hello to the Fang family, and led Xiao Ji and Cai Ping out of the Yuancheng Pavilion.

Xiao Ji glanced back and whispered, "Second Young Lady, Miss Fang is following behind." ”

Jian Ying originally wanted to find a reason to open the color screen, so she ordered: "You go and break Miss Fang." ”

The color screen answered the "yes", and turned around to greet Fang Yiyun's master and servant.

Xiao Ji saw that Fang Yiyun was stopped by the color screen, so he led Jian Ying to turn a few corners one after another, through a forest, and came to a small spring pool. I saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy dressed as a rough servant squatting there, teasing the little fish in the water with a branch.

Hearing the movement, he turned his head and revealed a delicate face that could not hide his ruffian.

"Brother Yuzhu, this is the second young lady." Xiao Ji introduced.

The young man hurriedly threw away the branches, stood up and brushed his robe, knelt down to salute, "Villain Luo Yuzhu, kowtow to the second young lady." ”

Jian Ying was not in a hurry to call him up, and slowly opened her mouth, "Luo Yuzhu, your godsister said that you are willing to do things for me, but is it sincere?" ”

Luo Yuzhu raised his head, lowered his eyes and replied, "Yes, Second Young Lady." ”

"Why?" Jian Ying looked at him with a faint expression, "You haven't even seen my face, how can you be sure that I am a good master worth following?" ”

"When I heard Sister Xiaoji say that the second young lady gave her two hundred taels of silver tickets casually, the villain knew that the second young lady was a good master worth following." Luo Yuzhu grinned twice, "People like us, don't they just want to live a better life?"

The villain, like the second young lady, does not like to be full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and is pretended. Whoever can make the villain not have to do things with a clear conscience, and can be profitable, the villain will recognize whoever is the master. ”

Jian Ying curled the corners of her lips, "Well said, loyalty to the monarch and patriotism are all false, and the benefits in hand are real."

Luo Yuzhu, let me see your sincerity now. ”

"Yes." Luo Yuzhu stretched out his hand and took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve and raised it above his head, "This is the kickback that the villain got according to the instructions of the second young lady, a total of five hundred taels, please take a look at the second young lady." ”

Xiao Ji stepped forward to take it and twisted it for Jian Ying to look at.

Jian Ying only glanced at it and asked, "Are you sure this money is not troublesome?" ”

"The villain is sure." Luo Yuzhu said confidently, "The one in charge of purchasing is the villain's cousin, and the shop that supplies the goods is found by the villain, and the things are all genuine and good, no one can find fault, and there is a reason why it is expensive."

Those shopkeepers are also smart people, and they won't just do this business with villains.

The villain is not stupid, how can he name them and say who they are doing things for? In case someone doesn't say anything and leaks his mouth, it is not good for the villain to do things, and it is not the business of others. ”

Jian Ying nodded approvingly, "Xiao Ji really didn't misunderstand you, you are a good seedling, I accepted your sincerity." ”

"Thank you for your support." Luo Yuzhu kowtowed happily.

Jian Ying glanced at Xiao Ji and motioned for her to return the silver ticket to Luo Yuzhu, "You take this money and help me raise a few people, it's best to have some fists and feet." Pick what you can do yourself, I only believe you.

I'm not afraid of you spending money, the money is not enough, ask Xiaodi to inform me. ”

"Second young lady and Mrs. rest assured, the villain will do his best." Luo Yuzhu accepted the money, kowtowed again, and got up to leave.

Jian Ying stood for a while, estimating that Luo Yuzhu had already walked away, and was about to turn around with Xiao Ji, when she heard a sneer from the woods, "Cousin is so bold, in broad daylight, he actually steals a foreign man here!" ”
