Chapter 88: True Talent and Practical Learning
Liu Ruyan was very satisfied with the result in front of her, she glanced at Jiang Yingning proudly, and then said to Pan Feiyan and Pan Qiaoxi, "You remember, Mianmian is a person from Jinhuatang, and you will be more cautious in your actions and words in the future, so as not to cause this kind of misunderstanding again." ”
Obviously, in one sentence, Liu Mianmian's identity has been raised by a few points, and it can even be said that Liu Mianmian represents her.
Pan Feiyan was so angry that she looked at Jiang Yingning with some distress, how could there be such a mother in the world who made decisions for others in front of her daughter?
However, Jiang Yingning's expression did not look forward to Ai Ai, she waited for Liu Ruyan to finish speaking before she slowly spoke, "I didn't expect Cousin Mianmian to think of going with me, I want this necklace for filial piety, but I think it is more suitable for grandmother." ”
I'm sorry, but behind her is the mistress of the Hou Mansion.
Sure enough, Liu Ruyan and Liu Mianmian's expressions were not good-looking.
When Pan Feiyan heard this, she was immediately overjoyed, and immediately said arrogantly, "Big lady, is the old lady qualified to be in front of you?"
"You!" Liu Ruyan gritted her teeth with hatred, and turned to reprimand Jiang Yingning, "Why didn't you say what you chose for the old lady just now? If you say it, how can Mianmian rob you?"
Pan Qiaoxi immediately rushed to answer, "That's a good question, Liu Mianmian didn't say that the necklace was chosen for the eldest lady just now, and I also saw her compare it on herself." ”
"I just wanted to see the effect, the necklace was really chosen for my aunt. Liu Mianmian explained softly and weakly.
She saw that the situation was already unfavorable to her, so she immediately apologized to Jiang Yingning, "Sister Yingning, this time it was my fault, I apologize to you, but for the sake of my filial piety, my sister should not care, okay?"
Jiang Yingning smiled, "Cousin Mianmian's words are serious, they are all for the sake of filial piety to the elders, how can I care about you?"
"That's good, that's good, I know that Sister Ying Ning is the most reasonable. Liu Mianmian became happy, over the years she gradually discovered a truth, timely weakness can always help her achieve her goal.
"It's just ......" Jiang Yingning glanced down at the broken ruby on the ground, "Because of my cousin's fault, I broke this necklace, and my cousin remembered to pay for it." ”
What the?
Liu Mianmian's face suddenly changed in shock, and she said with red eyes, "Sister Yingning, I just live in the Hou Mansion, how can I have such a valuable necklace as silver and two compensations?"
Liu Ruyan also disagreed, and said with some dissatisfaction, "Ying Ning, the old lady said, everyone can choose today's jewelry, if it is broken, it will be recorded in my name, and there is no need to compensate." ”
"But this necklace is for Ying Ning to give to her grandmother," Jiang Ying Ning said calmly, "How can it be recorded in my mother's name?"
"You ......" Liu Ruyan glared at Jiang Yingning angrily, "Whoever you write it down, it's just broken, what compensation to mention has swept everyone's interest! Yingning, you are becoming more and more ignorant!"
"I'm not sensible?" Jiang Yingning shook her head helplessly, "Mother has managed the Hou Mansion for so many years, is this how she manages it?"
This sentence completely hit Liu Ruyan's soft underbelly, she clenched the handkerchief in her hand angrily, and couldn't wait to step forward and slap Jiang Yingning in the mouth.
Sure enough, this girl disappeared for four years, and when she reappeared, she was just to go against herself.
Seeing this, Liu Mianmian immediately said very sensibly, "Forget it, aunt, sister, don't hurt the harmony, aunt also feels sorry for me, sister, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to make up for the money in this chain." ”
"That's good. Jiang Yingning naturally didn't expect to treat Liu Ruyan and Liu Mianmian because of a necklace.
The compensation necklace is just an appetizer, and a real meal needs some ingredients.
In the next time, Jiang Yingning was in a very good mood, she took Pan Qiaoxi to choose all kinds of jewelry and fabrics, and chose them for the old lady and the third lady, and finally left happily with a bunch of unsightly ones.
Liu Mianmian and Zhou Xianglian gritted their teeth as they watched from the side, but there was no way, what happened just now, they didn't dare to provoke Jiang Yingning again.
And the selection for the elders is also Liu Mianmian's beginning, they can only eat coptis dumbly, and when everyone is done, they come forward and pick a few random things in a pile of rags.
At dinner, everyone stayed at Shou'an Hall.
The old lady looked at Jiang Yingning's smiling face, and her heart was also happy, "This little girl seems to have chosen something good, look at that little expression is beautiful." ”
"Grandmother, my sister chose a particularly beautiful butterfly hairpin today, the butterfly is lifelike, and it is inlaid with honey-colored jewels, which is very beautiful. Pan Qiaoxi looked happier than Jiang Yingning.
Jiang Yingning nodded, "That butterfly hairpin is indeed exquisitely made, I am going to keep it for my grandmother's birthday banquet." ”
"Okay, okay. Pan Qiaoxi immediately clapped her hands and praised, and said in a different way, "When the time comes, my sister will definitely dominate the crowd." ”
"Well, it's good that you're happy. The old lady said and glanced at Liu Ruyan and Liu Mianmian, who were silent on the side.
Although she didn't show up today, she knew what happened in the yard that her baby baby Ning had really grown up, and it seemed that she had to make more plans.
After dinner, the old lady left Jiang Yingning behind, and everyone else left.
She held Jiang Yingning's hand and asked softly, "Yingning has learned to manage accounts in the past four years?"
"Of course. Jiang Yingning said quite proudly, "Grandmother, now you are sending the accounts of all the merchants in Kyoto to your granddaughter, and her granddaughter can calculate it clearly." ”
"Really?" The old lady was overjoyed, she originally thought that Ji Zhongli had just taught Jiang Yingning some scheming and methods, but she didn't expect that there would be such real materials.
She said with some excitement, "Does Ying Ning want to take care of the middle feed of the Hou Mansion?" Are you afraid of being tired?"
"Hehe, the middle feed of this Hou Mansion naturally needs to be managed by his granddaughter. Jiang Yingning said as a matter of course.
"You ghostly clever. The old lady nodded, "That's okay, grandmother thinks of a way, she can't take away Liu Ruyan's rights for no reason, after all, she still has the title of Mrs. Decree." ”
"Grandmother, you don't have to worry about this. Jiang Yingning said confidently, "Liu Ruyan will give up the right to feed in the tube." ”
"What?" the old lady didn't believe it, and when she noticed that Jiang Yingning called Liu Ruyan's name, her heart hurt fiercely.
How much does a mother hurt her child's heart to become the current situation?
Jiang Yingning nodded, "Grandmother, don't worry, this matter will be done by Yingning, just for you to see if Yingning has achieved anything in the past four years." ”
"You kid. The old lady patted the back of Jiang Yingning's hand lightly, and said earnestly, "With your mother becoming like this, I know that you must be uncomfortable in your heart, but ...... There are some things that you can't force, and it's good to let go. ”
"Grandmother rest assured, as long as there is a grandmother, Ying Ning is the happiest, as for the others, Ying Ning doesn't care. Jiang Yingning gently leaned on the old lady as if she were coquettish.
"You can think like this, grandmother is happy for you, but ......," the old lady sighed softly, "grandmother is old, how many years can she be with you?"
"Grandmother, don't talk nonsense. When Jiang Yingning heard such words, she felt distressed, she would definitely do her best to make the old lady live a long life.
