Jian Ying immediately smiled when she heard this, "How about we make a bet?" ”

Zhou Shu raised his eyebrows, "Bet on what?" ”

"Bet your sister-in-law doesn't know the odds of you being here." Jian Ying slapped her hand on the table, "I'll bet small." ”

"I'm not betting with you." Zhou Shu said dryly, and then his face was slightly cold, "What is that woman planning?" ”

The word "again" indicates that Meng Xinniang is not the first time.

Jian Ying hissed in her mouth, and looked at Zhou Shu in disbelief, "You and your sister-in-law ......"

"Lady." Zhou Shu accentuated his tone, "No matter what you want to crooked, my sister-in-law and I are not as familiar as you think." ”

"I didn't say you were familiar, look at you." Jian Ying muttered, picked up the spoon, and found that the soup in her bowl was gone.

Seeing that his bowl had only been used for a sip and had not moved again, he dragged the soup bowl in front of him and drank it unceremoniously.

Zhou Shu saw that she used his spoon directly, and did not dislike his saliva at all, and his heart warmed, and decided not to care about her open-mouthedness.

The little girl waited outside the door for a long time, but she didn't hear a reply, so she raised her voice and reported again, "Second young lady, princess ......"

"Invite her to the hall for tea." Jian Ying instructed, drank the soup in two sips, and asked Zhou Shudao, "Do you want to go with me to meet sister-in-law?" ”

"No need, I'm not interested in talking between you women." Zhou Shu said with a faint smile.

Jian Ying squinted at him, "Are you sure it's just a conversation between us women, what's the matter without you as a man?" ”

"Lady, go out quickly, it would be rude to let my sister-in-law wait for a long time." Zhou Shu obviously didn't want to talk about this topic, and urged.

"It's okay, I deliberately turned my clothes upside down when I went out, and then pretended to be in a hurry, my sister-in-law will definitely not think I'm rude." Jian Ying said as she walked out.

Zhou Shu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that she was trying to frame him for indulging in his desires. Knowing that she wouldn't really do that, she couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

Thinking about it carefully, her words and deeds in front of him are too uninhibited, and she really doesn't look like a daughter from a big family. made him a little curious, what kind of life she lived in the capital.

Over there, Jian Ying and Meng Xinniang saw each other, and when the elders and children sat down, Meng Xinniang asked casually: "I heard that the princess handed over the matter of organizing the reception banquet to her younger siblings?" ”

"Yes, the mother concubine said, sooner or later, the second young master and I will have to go out and live alone, and you have to give me more opportunities to exercise and preside over the feed." Jian Ying deliberately led Meng Xinniang to think more.

Meng Xinniang really thought too much, and secretly scolded the Fang family for sowing discord in her heart, but there was no difference on her face, "Although it is the prince who will inherit the lord in the future, the prince and the second young master have always been close, and they do not distinguish each other, but I am afraid that there will be no day when the family will be separated."

It's good to have a chance to exercise, the skills are not pressing, and the coming days are long, and there is always a time to use. When there is no one on top, I still have to rely on my younger siblings to share my worries. ”

The meaning of what she said couldn't be more obvious, the day King Ji'an passed away, and the Fang family also gave up the power of the housekeeper and took a back seat, and only the two of them could make Zhou Shu and Jian Ying rely on to the end.

To put it bluntly, it is to warn Jian Ying not to take refuge in the wrong person, and it is the wisest choice to stand with her.

Jian Ying understood herself, but she didn't want Meng Xinniang to think that she was so smart, "Sister-in-law is too modest, and the mother concubine said that sister-in-law can do a lot of things, where can I use to share my worries?" ”

Meng Xinniang's eyes flickered, "The princess told her younger siblings about me?" ”

"Yes, the mother always praises you to me, and says that there is a little misunderstanding with you, otherwise this time we will let the two of us handle it together. I will definitely learn a lot from my sister-in-law. Jian Ying said curiously, "But sister-in-law, what misunderstanding do you have with your mother?" ”

A sneer flashed at the corner of Meng Xinniang's mouth, "Didn't the princess sue her younger siblings?" ”

"Nope." Jian Ying shook her head.

"It's nothing, it's just that there are some differences of opinion." Meng Xinniang pretended to be an understatement, "Between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, no matter how good the relationship is, there will inevitably be some small frictions. ”

After saying the three words "small friction", he smiled mockingly.

The friction between her and the Fang clan was not a star, she knew that it must be the Fang clan's slut who pretended to be virtuous and fooled this brainless person with clever words. Otherwise, who knew that his mother-in-law had been killed, and he could still be at ease and get close to the Fang family regardless of his previous suspicions?

Looks like we'll have to add another handful of firewood.

"How is Aunt Su? lives in the same backyard, why rarely do you see her appear? ”

"Aunt Su is fine." Jian Ying didn't know what she had suddenly asked Su Xiulian about, so she said quietly, "Because everyone values this baby very much, Aunt Su herself is also very careful and doesn't go out lightly." ”

Probably because she was afraid that she would bring unnecessary trouble to her and Zhou Shu, Su Xiulian was a little too disciplined. In addition to coming to her every morning to say goodbye, the rest of the time is stuffy in Tianshui Pavilion, staying at home, ignoring everything, and only focusing on raising the fetus.

She was also happy to worry, so she even waived the procedure of asking for peace.

Meng Xinniang smiled slightly, "Aunt Su looks like an honest person, but she doesn't know her heart but she knows her face, so it's better for her younger siblings to be more careful."

Even the princess said, you are too kind-hearted and sincere, and you will help you pay for someone who is sold. ”

Jian Ying's eyes widened, "What does the concubine mean...... Is Aunt Su pretending to be honest? ”

Meng Xinniang couldn't help but scolded "stupid" in her heart, "That's not necessarily, the princess just said that you are too stupid." ”

Jian Yingxin said that in order to provoke her and the Fang family, Meng Xinniang was quite hard, but she still didn't tease the boring child, and cooperated, so she made a lost and sour look, "I only know now that in the eyes of the concubine, I am a fool." ”

Meng Xinniang saw that she was finally on the road, so she struck while the iron was hot and said: "If you talk about the way to get along with wives and concubines, the princess is the master."

Concubine Bai and Concubine Wen have been following the prince for many years, and they are still behaving in front of the princess. Concubine Qi Shu has been in full favor recently, didn't she almost lose her life a few days ago?

In my opinion, Concubine Qi will not be beautiful for a few days.

Do your younger siblings know that the new prefect is a relative of Concubine Qi? ”

Jian Ying listened to her provoking more and more explicitly, and suddenly felt tired and panicked, nodded and said, "I heard what the princess said." ”

Meng Xinniang keenly noticed that she called Fang "princess" instead of "mother concubine", and had a hunch that she was not far from success, "Concubine Qi has been shouting for a long time, when her cousin comes, she must let her cousin find out about the fact that she was almost harmed by someone and had a miscarriage."

It's just that Concubine Qi is too straightforward and far from being the princess's opponent. Even if I invited the prefect to come forward, I'm afraid I won't be able to find out anything.

I heard that my younger brother and sister were also inquiring about the death of the princess a few days ago? ”
