Chapter 384: Exploitation

The old lady's movements were very fast, Fang Bining nodded, and within a few days, she became the aunt of the fifth room of the Hou Mansion.

Although she is only a concubine, she can only enter the mansion through the corner gate, but after approving the hijab and wearing the wedding dress, Fang Bining is satisfied, not to mention that she is a noble concubine and a person pointed out by the old lady, which means that her status will not be low in the future, and the most important thing is that she no longer has to take risks and do things that will make Fifth Brother An look down and angry.

On the wedding night, Fang Bining spent the happiest moment of her life.

An Shiyan is undoubtedly gentle and considerate, and her careful care made Fang Bining deeply feel the feeling of being loved.

She realizes that she is the irreplaceable and most important existence in her husband's heart.

Before dawn, An Shiyan got up and prepared to go to court, he didn't let Fang Bining get up to serve him, but let her rest well, this thoughtfulness made Fang Bining's heart flutter.

However, on the second day of the wedding, her husband got up early to go to the court, Fang Bining felt a little unhappy, and couldn't help but pull his sleeve and begged: "Can't you accompany me more?" ”

As she said this, her cheeks flushed shyly.

An Shiyan smiled gently, but without hesitation, she pulled back the sleeve she was pulling, and said, "You have a good rest, and you can see me when you get up." ”

His hand fell into the air, Fang Bining stiffened slightly, and then felt infinitely sweet because of his words, and said shyly: "I'll wait for you to come back and eat together." ”

An Shiyan left with a smile.

Out of the door, An Shiyan took his personal servant Qizhu straight to the second door, where there was a waiting sedan chair.

Qizhu asked with a lot of mouths: "Fifth master, Aunt Fang just entered the door, don't you want to accompany her more?" ”

"You can't miss the court because of this, not to mention that Aunt Fang herself said that even if she only looks at me once a month, she is content, her hope has been achieved, and she will not be angry about this little thing." An Shiyan shook his sleeves and looked indifferent.

The people around Fang Bining were all arranged by him, how could Fang Bining's words and deeds escape his eyes? Fang Bining replied to the old lady's words, and he was clear.

"That's what the fifth master said." Qizhu replied and stopped talking.

After An Shiyan left, Fang Bining slept again with sweetness, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already bright outside the house.

After calling a maid to serve and washing, he sat down at the dresser under the window to make up.

Seeing the exquisite and gorgeous jewelry box on the table, Fang Bining sighed, opened it and saw that there was a set of valuable heads, and the corner of the lid was engraved with the logo of the gold and silver building.

It's not her jewelry.

Could it be ......

Surprise slipped over her eyes, and she asked the little maid who was waiting for the makeup, "When did you send this jewelry?" Who sent it? ”

The little maid replied: "It was sent by Mama Qin in Miss Six's room, and not long before my aunt got up, she said that Miss Six picked it up, and it was ......."

Without waiting for the little maid to finish speaking, Fang Bining secretly said Sure enough, she almost couldn't help laughing.

Pressing the ecstasy in her heart, her eyes flashed slightly, and she pretended to be grateful: "I'm just an aunt, Miss Six also personally chose the wedding gift for me, it's really kind, I think what Miss Six said before is not a lie, she asked me to go to her if I was in trouble, she will definitely help me, I really don't know how to thank Miss Six." ”

The little maid was obviously innocent, and her eyes lit up when she heard this: "No wonder Miss Six will personally choose the gifts, it seems that Miss Six likes her aunt very much, it's really good!" With the help of Miss Liu, my aunt will definitely be able to do everything well in the house! Miss Six is so good, does everyone want to be her maid? ”

Fang Bining smiled silently.

Of course, what she said just now was false, An Ruolan didn't even want to see her, how could she say that to her?

She just took advantage of An Ruolan's power, and with the maintenance of the county lord of Chenshuang, who else in this Hou Mansion would look down on her? Even if it's Meng, I'm afraid you have to be respectful to her!

And she is good friends with her husband's beloved daughter, and I believe that her husband will definitely be closer to her.

She wasn't worried that the lie would be exposed, Mama Song told her about the conversation between Fifth Brother An and An Ruolan, she saw that An Ruolan was a soft-hearted person, presumably An Ruolan must be very sympathetic to her now, and she couldn't bear to let her poor person fall into a more miserable situation.

As for Fifth Brother An, even if he knew that she used his most beloved daughter, thinking about his tenderness, he would definitely be reluctant to blame her, after all, she was also important in his heart, and when she gave birth to a child, would Fifth Brother An still remember the daughter born to a woman he didn't love? The answer is no.

Fang Bining calculated very well, she wanted to get all her husband's love, and her husband's love for her children should not be given to An Ruolan alone.

The only thing that made Fang Bining dissatisfied was that An Shiyan did not come back after she got up, but asked people to come back and spread the word, saying that she wanted to have tea with her friends. But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, Fang Bining is more rational than Meng, she knows that she can't interfere with a man's friendship and career, because she is very understanding and lifeless, and she also let people spread the word, saying that she will prepare An Shiyan's favorite meal, and wait for him to come back for lunch.

An Shiyan expressed great satisfaction with her reasonableness.

After breakfast and having nothing to do, Fang Bining found something to do for herself.

She wore the jewelry that was said to have been hand-selected by An Ruolan and given to her to "ask for peace" to the Meng family, and also went to the courtyard of the Murong family's concubines to ask for gifts, and walked around the Hou Mansion as if showing off.

In just one morning, it spread all over the Hou Mansion, and Miss Six liked the new aunt in the fifth room very much, and personally selected gifts for Aunt Fang.

When An Ruolan heard the news, she laughed angrily, she was sympathetic and saw that Fang Bining was helpless in Shengjing, so she gave Fang Bining a small gift, but she didn't expect this woman to be exaggerated to such an extent.

The most ridiculous thing is that in the concubine's room, she still went to greet the ladies in the house in a similar way, did Fang Bining think that she was the mistress of the fifth room?

It can be seen that Fang Bining is not as indisputable as she herself said.

was already depressed because of her biological father's words, but after knowing what Fang Bining did, An Ruolan's mood became worse and worse, and she couldn't calm down to do embroidery, so she simply gave herself a vacation to talk to her grandmother.

When I arrived at Desong Crane Hall, it happened that several sisters-in-law and nephews and nieces were also there, and when I saw the cute buns, An Ruolan's mood instantly brightened up, and she was busy cleaning up her mood and playing with a group of children.

The buns all like the sixth aunt, babbling and competing for the aunt's hug, surrounded by lively and innocent children, An Ruolan felt that the haze in her heart had completely dissipated.

The old lady smiled and watched a group of children playing, and when they had enough trouble, several granddaughters-in-law left with their children, and then she called An Ruolan to her side, patted her back and said, "You have been wronged." ”

An Ruolan trembled, her eyes turned red, and she fell into her grandmother's arms and said, "Grandmother, did I do something wrong?" ”

The old lady hugged her distressedly and said, "You are not wrong, it is the person who uses your mind to make a mistake." But don't worry, she will always have to pay for her selfishness. ”

As she spoke, the old lady took out a palm-length mahogany box from behind her, which was as delicate and gorgeous as the one Fang Bining received, and at a glance she knew that it was produced by the Golden and Silver Building.

Seeing this, An Ruolan exhaled in a low voice: "This is the jewelry I gave to Miss Fang, why is it here for my grandmother?" ”

The old lady smiled: "Although I raised her as a concubine, but a woman with an impure heart, how could I be defenseless, I deliberately deducted it." ”

"So she didn't get my gift at all, but she said something like that!" An Ruolan's face turned red with anger.

The old lady patted the back of her head and sighed: "Actually, what your fifth uncle said is not wrong, men really shouldn't be tripped by women, just because you are a woman, so you can't agree." Do you still sympathize with Fang Bining now? ”

An Ruolan shook her head without hesitation, she was not a compassionate bodhisattva in the first place, how could she give kindness to unworthy people?

The old lady nodded with satisfaction and handed the box to her, "This matter is left to you to deal with, grandmother hopes that you can learn the lesson of this time, the woman in the back house cannot be indifferent, everyone may become your enemy, for all kinds of interests, so you can't have senseless sympathy, whether it is in the Hou Mansion now or in the Wei Mansion in the future." ”

"The granddaughter remembers her grandmother's teachings." An Ruolan clenched the box in his hand and nodded cautiously.

She still couldn't fully agree with her biological father's words, but the pimple in her heart was gone, she was already able to understand her biological father's point of view, I have to say that she was indeed not mature enough, thanks to the "good thing" done by Fang Bining, which made her realize her own shortcomings.

Leaving Songhe Hall, An Ruolan completely changed her mood, and looked down at the brocade box in her hand, she planned to surprise Fang Bining.

She asked people to prepare a set of exquisite and luxurious heads, and invited Fang Bining to drink tea in the Lotus Perfume Pavilion with great fanfare.

Fang Bining was surprised and puzzled, wondering if An Ruolan had heard the rumors and wanted to settle accounts with her, but when she heard that An Ruolan had also prepared head and face jewelry, she was relieved again.

No one counts accounts and brings gifts, right?

She couldn't help but secretly rejoice, could it be that An Ruolan was planning to win her over? Because she is Fifth Brother An's beloved?

This thought made Fang Bining overjoyed, and hurriedly asked the maid to dress up for herself, and happily went to the appointment.

The chill has not subsided, the edge of the water pavilion is very deserted, An Ruolan asked people to move a screen to block the cold wind, and let people prepare a charcoal stove and an embroidered pier covered with soft cotton pads, a small table for cooking tea, and hot snacks, and sat in the water pavilion and waited for Fang Bining to arrive.

Because of the news, many maids and women came to see the excitement, and the water pavilion became extremely lively.

Fang Bining arrived as promised.

seems to think that An Ruolan sympathizes with her, her dress is very plain, giving people a cold and pitiful feeling.

In comparison, An Ruolan was dressed in brocade and silk, wearing a golden step and a jeweled hairpin, which looked domineering.

Under the attention of the onlookers, Fang Bining strode into the water pavilion with his head held high, and greeted An Ruolan with a smile: "Let Miss Six wait for a long time." ”

sat down directly on the embroidery pier opposite An Ruolan.

An Ruolan raised her eyebrows, picked up the teapot, and just when Fang Bining thought she was going to pour tea for herself, An Ruolan poured herself hot tea, and then put the teapot back in place.

Fang Bining's expression froze.

An Ruolan turned a blind eye and said with a faint smile: "Aunt Fang first arrived in Shengjing, and I don't think I understand the rules of the big families in Shengjing City very well, just like you said yourself, I promised to help you, and I won't be stingy with advice." Concubine, known as a standing girl, that is, the existence of serving people, take Fang Cai as an example, you, as a concubine, half of the subordinate, see that my young lady not only does not salute, but also sits down by himself, which can be said to be quite rude. ”

Seeing her eyes without the slightest warmth, Fang Bining's heart jumped suddenly, and she hurriedly stood up and said, "Say hello to Miss Six, I don't know the rules, and I ask Miss Six to forgive me." ”

An Ruolan bowed her head gently, waved her hand and said: "You don't have to panic, I'm just reminding you and letting you know that there is such a rule, you should pay more attention in the future." Also, in front of the ladies and young masters in the mansion, you should call yourself a concubine, but you can't see the young masters in the mansion. ”

She deliberately accentuated the sound of the word "concubine".

"I ...... The concubine remembered. Fang Bining only felt humiliated, and it took a while to squeeze out this sentence.

A fine cold sweat broke out on her forehead, she never thought that An Ruolan would use the rumors she made to give her a bad blow, is this self-inflicted? She regretted that she had misestimated An Ruolan's ability.

This Sixth Miss is even smarter and more thoughtful than she thought.

An Ruolan pretended not to see her panic, and said with a smile: "Aunt Fang, please sit down, you don't have to be so restrained in front of me." ”

"Miss Xie Liu." Fang Bining sat down cautiously, not daring to make any extra movements.

After being silent for a long time, An Ruolan nodded to Bai Ling on the side and ordered, "Bai Ling poured tea for Aunt Fang." ”

Bai Ling respectfully agreed, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Fang Bining.

An Ruolan said again: "Aunt Fang should remember that if you are lucky enough to share a table with other ladies and ladies in the future, you should try to be humble and polite, and you should take the initiative to do such tasks as pouring tea and water, because this is what you should do." It's the same when you go to greet the fifth aunt in the future, she asks you to stand, you can't sit, she asks you to serve dishes and wash the spittoon, and you can't postpone it, because serving the old lady is the duty of the concubine. ”

With that, he picked up the teacup and drank it all.

"Yes, the concubine remembered." Resentment flashed in Fang Bining's eyes, and he endured the humiliation and nodded yes.

She instructed An Ruolan to fill her empty teacup.

An Ruolan did not continue to "guide" until the point. Taking out the hairpin that was originally going to be given to Fang Bining, she smiled gently: "I haven't congratulated Aunt Fang on her great joy yet, I hope Aunt Fang will accept it." ”

"This ......" Fang Bining was taken aback, I don't know what trick An Ruolan played, didn't she just send her a set of noodles in the morning?

In order to avoid others misunderstanding her insatiable greed, she repeatedly excused herself and said in a panic: "Miss Sixth has already given the concubine a set of valuable heads, and the concubine does not dare to accept this again, and the concubine thanks Miss Six for her kindness." ”

As soon as the words fell, An Ruolan let out a surprised "huh" and said, "Aunt Fang didn't misunderstand something, I didn't give Aunt Fang any face." ”

Fang Bining was struck by lightning. R1152
