Chapter 238: Contradictions

An Ruojin stayed in the Jin Palace's Mansion for five days before returning to the Hou Mansion.

She handed over the congratulatory gifts that An Ruolan entrusted her with and the congratulatory gifts she prepared.

An Ruolian accepted the congratulatory gift, looked extremely happy, and warmly left her to speak.

It's just that the two sisters were separated after all, and they couldn't find anything to say, so they quickly sat down and fell silent.

Although no one mentions the events of that year anymore, An Ruolian still can't let go of it in her heart, and when facing An Ruojin, she always looks cramped and flustered.

After sitting for a while, seeing that it was really embarrassing, An Ruojin got up and said goodbye.

An Ruolian didn't want to make each other uncomfortable, so she didn't keep her and sent her out in person.

In front of the gate of the hospital, the two sisters broke up, An Ruolian wanted to speak and stopped: "Sister Jin......"

When An Ruojin raised her eyes and looked at her suspiciously, she couldn't speak, and finally only laughed and spit out: "It's not a big deal, I just want to invite my sister to come and sit in the past few days." ”

An Ruojin was slightly stunned, thinking that she was going to get married, and she was afraid that she would not be able to see each other often in the future, so she responded with her head.

Waiting for An Ruojin to leave, An Ruolian let out a long sigh.

Her personal maid Huang Li saw that she was frowning, so she asked, "Miss, but you want to persuade the second miss?" ”

"I'm not qualified to persuade Jin'er." An Ruolian smiled bitterly and shook her head, "I'm just worried that Jin'er is already sixteen, and if she doesn't settle down, she will inevitably cause gossip in the future." ”

"It's all said in the play, marriage is destined, Xu is the fate of the second miss hasn't arrived yet, just like Miss, it's not fate yet, so it will naturally become a good thing?" Huang Li comforted her.

Thinking of her fiancΓ©, An Ruolian couldn't help but smile a little tenderly, and sighed: "What is my fate, it is my mother's gift and pity to me." ”

When she concealed the conspiracy of her biological aunt and almost killed Jin'er, her mother not only blamed her, but also magnanimously chose a good husband for her.

Huang Li echoed.

While they were talking, the master and servant went back to the house.

There was also a congratulatory gift sent by An Ruojin on the table outside, and another maid named Magpie in An Ruolian's room was restricting, and when she saw the two coming back, she said happily: "Miss, this is the unique congratulatory gift box of Jinyin Building, and I don't know what kind of jewelry the second miss and the sixth miss sent!" ”

Looking at the delicate and gorgeous brocade box on the table, An Ruolian's eyes showed joy and emotion, with a little urgency and curiosity, she walked to the table and sat down, and picked up the congratulatory gift given by An Ruojin.

When she opened it and saw the jewelry inside, she couldn't help but smile, it was all her favorite style.

Then I took another brocade box and opened it, and inside it was also delicate and gorgeous jewelry.

The magpie probed over and saw that there was only a pair of skulls and a golden lock, and couldn't help but say in frustration: "I thought that Miss Six would give more expensive gifts, but I didn't expect it to be similar to Miss Second." ”

muttered in a low voice: "It's so stingy, I have gained so much benefit, and I still don't pull out a dime." ”

Hearing this, An Ruolian's face sank, closed the brocade box heavily, and said sharply: "Careful your tongue." ”

The magpie knew that he was speechless, so he hurriedly lowered his head and said tremblingly: "The slave knows her mistakes, please forgive the young lady, and the slave and the maid also saw that the sixth young lady deceived the trust and closeness of the second young lady by her clever words, and she was not worth it for the young lady, so she would talk nonsense." ”

An Ruolian's heart trembled slightly, and she shook her head helplessly and reprimanded: "Don't say such things again, Sister Lan is frank and sincere, and she is indeed worthy of Jin'er's sincere treatment." ”

The magpie replied again and again, not daring to refute it at all.

Seeing her admit her mistake, An Ruolian no longer pursued it, only let Huang Li collect the gift, and then went back to the room to embroider the quilt.

On the second day, Miss Six's stingy reputation spread all over the Hou Mansion, and An Ruolian wanted to stop it too late, so she could only be secretly annoyed and hurriedly went to An Ruojin to explain.

An Ruojin also heard the rumor, when An Ruolian came to the door, she was still a little angry, but after hearing the reason, she was relieved, and said that she would explain to An Ruolan for An Ruolian in the future.

An Ruolian thanked her for her trust, turned her head back to the room and taught the magpie a hard lesson, and even crossed the magpie off the list of marries.

This is just a very small matter, and most people don't take it seriously when they hear about it, but Meng Shi feels that Yan zhΓ²ng can't do it, and when everyone doesn't mention it, she still has to find Mrs. An in front of her and say.

"If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world, now Lan'er has countless family properties, but she is so stingy with her sister, how can she be expected to help others in the future? is so selfish and selfish, it is an obstacle to the reputation of my Hou Mansion. ”

In front of the old lady, the other four ladies, and all the young ladies, Meng almost rebuked bitterly.

The old lady blew the tea leaves floating on the water, and when she finished speaking, she spoke slowly: "That's it?" Why don't you say it? Go on, let everyone hear how you arranged Lan'er. ”

In the past few years, the old lady has become more and more disdainful of Meng, and this time Meng dared to slander her beloved granddaughter in public, she naturally did not want to give Meng a good look.

Meng Shi was so blocked that she couldn't speak, and she was about to cry with her handkerchief, but the old lady didn't even look at her.

The third lady covered her mouth and snickered, and said, "I said Fifth Aunt, what kind of grudge does Lan'er have with you, if you don't find trouble for her for a day, you won't be happy, right?" If you want me to say, even to the enemy, there is no such thing. If you don't know, you think Lan'er was born to the fifth uncle's concubine, so you can't tolerate it! ”

Hearing this, Meng Shi's face suddenly turned pale, and he said angrily: "Nonsense, Lan'er is the daughter I gave birth to in October!" ”

In a panic, she accidentally knocked over the tea cup at hand, the tea she had just brewed was still very hot, she screamed at the moment, and hurriedly wiped the tea on her body.

The third lady was just joking, but she didn't want her to react so violently, and she couldn't help but be stunned.

Murong's eyelids jumped slightly, and a suspicion rose in his heart.

The old lady turned her head impatiently and said, "Okay, you go back, I can't bear to look at you." ”

The tone of disgust and disgust made Meng Shi's eyes red in an instant, and he hid his face and cried bitterly.

Crying all the way back to Xinyue Garden, Meng Shi bumped into An Shiyan, who had just returned home, and saw his wife burst into tears, An Shiyan was distressed and surprised, and hurriedly hugged her back to the house to sit down, comforting and asked, "What happened?" Why do you cry? ”

Meng Shi couldn't stop sobbing and sobbed, "It's my mother...... Mother, she dislikes me......"

As he spoke, he became more and more sad, and almost cried in An Shiyan's arms.

Hearing that it was related to his mother, An Shiyan immediately fell silent.

Seeing that he was silent, Meng Shi was even more sad, beating his chest and crying: "Why don't you speak, do you think I'm making trouble again?" You are always like this, why do you always believe in your mother and not me! I am your wife, the one who wants to live with you for the rest of your life! ”

In normal times, Meng Shi would never be like this, but today she was too scared and angry, so she would sprinkle it regardless of it.

God knows, when the third sister-in-law said those words, she almost stopped beating in fright.

An Shiyan let her cry and make a fuss, and waited until she was tired and stopped, and then said, "You have a good rest, I still have some things to deal with, and I will accompany you later." ”

With that, he patted her on the back soothingly, let her go, and got up to leave.

Meng lay on the couch, sobbing nonstop.

From sunset to nightfall, Meng Shi maintained the same position, lying motionless on the couch, until Xue Shi came in to take charge of the lamp, and she did not sit up.

Xue didn't ask anything, didn't say anything, silently stepped forward to tidy up her appearance, wiped her cheeks and hands full of tears with a warm cloth, and served her carefully and thoughtfully, which moved Meng Shi at a vulnerable moment.

"In his heart, Lan'er is more important than me, and his mother is more important than me, what is my position in his heart......" Meng Shi's sadness came from it, and he couldn't help but burst into tears.

"No matter what position you are, you are the wife of the fifth master, and the fifth lady of the Wenxin Marquis Mansion." Xue Shi smiled faintly.

Meng suddenly remembered that the woman in front of him was just an aunt, or an aunt who was not favored, and she couldn't even see her husband's face often, so she was even more pitiful than her.

I couldn't help but feel a wave of sympathy in my heart, and Meng Shi had a feeling of sympathy for each other.

She took Xue's hand, her eyes full of pity and sympathy.

Seeing the defenselessness in her eyes, Xue's eyes flashed slightly, and she persuaded softly: "Madame, don't blame the fifth master, the fifth master is also involuntarily, after all, ...... The old lady is not the biological mother of the fifth master, and the fifth master always has some scruples when he speaks and does things. ”

Meng's fingertips trembled slightly, and he said in disbelief: "What do you mean......"

"How can an adoptive mother be able to defeat her biological mother, but the poor fifth master has been forced to separate from his biological mother since he was a child, and he has relied on the old lady's snort to live all these years." Xue sighed lowly.

Meng bit his lip, and the bottom of his eyes flickered.

An Ruolan didn't know what happened in the Wenxin Marquis's mansion, and in the next half a month, she walked around the shops in He Ji, and her life was miserable.

And An Ruojin, her relationship with An Wensheng has not eased.

An Wensheng already knew the cause and effect, and he also knew that Zhao San concealed and deceived him, but he couldn't pull his head down and bow to his sister, so he was depressed and aggrieved, so he could only find a friend to confide in.

It's hard for outsiders to say anything about the contradiction between brother and sister like this, and whenever An Wensheng mentions it, everyone can only vaguely comfort and explain him.

It's just the comfort of his friends that made An Wensheng more and more reasonable, and he began to complain that his sister didn't give him face.

Zhou Yongxuan also listened to An Wensheng's complaints, he didn't want to care about it originally, but once, An Wensheng said it, so that he couldn't continue to be silent.

The reason was that An Wensheng drank too much and said: "Sooner or later, I have to get married, what does it matter who I marry her?" Now she wants to stay in the Hou Mansion, refuses to marry, and still cares about me so much. ”

Zhou Yongxuan replied: "If you are carried away by Xiao Sanyuan and take yourself too seriously, I don't mind helping you sober up." ”

Then, the two fought. R1152
