Chapter 037: Intentional

Xi'er has always wanted Mengbao to wear the red pomegranate skirt, but now she seized the opportunity, and took out the skirt without saying a word as soon as she entered the house: "Young lady, you can wear this, it's really good-looking!" ”

Mengbao couldn't cry or laugh, and wanted her to change into a plain one, but seeing her serious expression on her face, she couldn't bear to brush off her kindness, so she changed the dress into a dress.

The already bright face became more and more attractive against the background of the red dress, which was completely different from the dignified and elegant person who had just worn a green dress.

Xi'er couldn't help but exclaim: "The young lady is really good-looking......"

Meng Bao smiled and looked at himself in the mirror.

She also feels like she's getting more and more ...... these days It's good-looking.

The facial features are still Su Mengbao's original facial features, but it can't be said that there is anything wrong, but it is more beautiful than before.

Seems to be the skin getting better? Is your figure taller and fuller than before?

She smiled and shook her head, a little embarrassed by her inexplicable narcissism.

No matter how good-looking Su Mengbao is, this is not his original appearance.

Although she was originally a small jasper, she was beautiful and moving, but compared to Su Mengbao, she was still far from being able to reach it.

"Alright, let's go."

She whispered a word and turned to walk out.

Hongjian and Zhao's mother couldn't take their eyes off her when they saw her in a red dress, but after serving for more than ten years, they came back to their senses after being a little stunned.

The red note did not go out with her, but pulled her back with a smile.

"Miss, you forgot to change your headdress and shoes."

Mengbao wanted to match a strange style to destroy the beauty of this skirt, but who knew that the red note was so sharp-eyed that she couldn't succeed, and she was suddenly a little depressed.

Xi'er was a little embarrassed, she had just patronized the young lady's dress and appearance, and forgot everything else, in the end, she was not as careful as the personal maid next to the young lady.

After all the clothes and accessories were sorted out, Mengbao walked towards Shoufangyuan again.

According to Zhao's mother's advice, Hongjian carefully guarded against any suspicious people on the side of the road all the way, but this time there was nothing wrong, and he walked all the way to Shoufangyuan without incident.

The two wives of the Li family and the second and third rooms are all there, Shen Nancheng and Li Wanyu are also in the room, in addition to Shen Yurong, and the youngest son of the Li family, the fourteenth young master Shen Nanzheng, who is only seven years old.

Except for the children of the second and third rooms and the only concubine of the big house, Shen Yujing, the rest of the people came.

Everyone in the room couldn't hide their surprise the moment they saw Mengbao, and Shen Yurong's eyes almost fell out in shock.

Mengbao saluted several elders in turn, and several juniors also saluted her separately.

Although Shen Nanzheng is young, his rules and etiquette are meticulous, and he bends down to salute seriously, looking naΓ―ve and cute.

Mengbao couldn't help but smile because of his little adult appearance, and tried her best to resist the urge to touch his head.

Li Shi retracted his gaze after being slightly stunned, took a sip of the teacup, and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner: "It's really early." ”

Mengbao didn't want to explain, but Xi'er on the side said to the old lady on the main seat: "Old lady Qiqi, the young lady got up early today to come to greet you, but who knew that she was bumped by a reckless girl halfway down the road, and she also stained the previous dress. The young lady was afraid that it would be rude to see you like this, so she went back to change into clean clothes before coming over, and asked the old lady to be considerate of the young lady's painstaking efforts. ”

Xi'er was originally the person sent by the old lady to Mengbao, and she was often called by the old lady to answer, and gradually figured out some of the old lady's temperament, so she was not as trembling as she was at the beginning, and said respectfully but not humbly.

Mengbao took a step forward and scolded her: "It's too late, it's too late, what are you doing when you explain so much." Grandmother, granddaughter-in-law is late, please forgive me. ”

The last sentence was for the old lady, but it was just to forgive me, and it didn't mean to admit mistakes.

The old lady nodded, with a faint smile on her lips, and asked, "Where did the girl come from to be so reckless?" Can you find it out? ”

This is to not mind that she is late, but to pursue the little maid who rushed into her.

Shen Yurong, who was sitting at the bottom of the head, heard that her hands were tight, and she was afraid that her hands would be tightened.

Mengbao smiled: "It's not a big deal, it's just a piece of clothing, just change it." Today, the house is busy, and it is inevitable that people will be a little dizzy. ”

The old lady frowned and said: "Your original intention of being sympathetic to your subordinates is good, but sometimes you can't be too gentle, and you have to punish when you should be punished." Otherwise, if they collide with you at this moment, they will be able to collide with the guests in the mansion later, wouldn't it be a mess. ”

This is a bit heavy, to put it bluntly, she is still dissatisfied with her previous favor of the orb, afraid that she will make the same mistake again and spoil another orb.

Mengbao didn't take the jewel to heart, so naturally she didn't care too much about the old lady's words, and replied casually: "Yes, my granddaughter-in-law will definitely pay attention to it in the future, if that girl bumps into me again next time, I will punish her severely!" ”

Next time? That still means that I don't plan to investigate it this time, and I don't need to check it again.

No one in this house has dared to refute the old lady's opinion for many years, and the old lady said to check it, so there is no room for others to refute it.

Everyone in the room changed their faces together, but Mengbao didn't notice it.

The old lady was also stunned, obviously she didn't expect Mengbao to reply to her like this.

After coming back to her senses, she suddenly laughed again: "Okay, okay, anyway, she hit you and not me, what kind of heart do I have, you can do it yourself!" ”

With a smile and a bit of casual intimacy in his tone, he was a little closer to Mengbao than before.

Not angry?

Didn't lash out?

Not even the slightest unpleasantness?

The expressions on everyone's faces were very complicated, and each one was more tangled than the other.

The old lady was in a good mood and let people set the meal, saying that she was rarely lively here, so she wouldn't talk about those rules today, and she would eat breakfast here.

Everyone's faces have changed again, the old lady has always liked to be quiet, when did she start to like to be lively?

But since she spoke, everyone naturally wouldn't refute her face, and they didn't have the courage of Mengbao to refute it, so they responded with a smile and sat down one after another.

Although the old lady said that she would not talk about those rules, some people could really not talk about it, and some people did not dare not talk about it.

Li Wanyu and Shen Yurong, as juniors and women, are not really seated, so they stand aside and serve respectfully.

Meng Bao saw that they were not too maverick if they were not seated, so he hesitated to stand aside.

"Mengbao, sit."

The old lady spoke.

Mengbao was slightly surprised, but naturally he would not stand if he could sit, so he sat down politely.

Li Wanyu and Shen Yurong's faces suddenly became a little ugly, and the smiles on their faces were very stiff, but they didn't dare to say anything.

Shen Yurong was serving vegetables to the elders, and at the same time looked at Mengbao's red dress with her spare eyes.

I thought she only made an extra dress for the lotus banquet in Yunnifang, but I didn't expect that there was still one.

Shen Yurong's hateful teeth itched, her eyes rolled up drippingly, and when she went to serve the soup, her hand accidentally shook, and a bowl of soup poured out, drenching Mengbao's body.

The soup was still a little hot, and it spilled on Mengbao's legs.

The summer clothes were thin, Mengbao was caught off guard, and subconsciously stood up after being hot, knocking down the chair behind him.

There was chaos in the room, some of the little maids went to help up the chairs, and some of them wiped Mengbao's skirts in a panic.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I didn't mean to ......"

Shen Yurong's face was full of guilt, and as she spoke, she reached out to wipe her, but the hand that was still holding the bowl accidentally shook again and poured a little soup on the hem of her skirt.

The little maid hurriedly took the soup bowl in her hand again, so as to prevent her from drenching anyone else.

The old lady's face was full of anger, the second and third wives had different faces, and the faces of Li and Shen Nancheng were a little ugly.

Li Wanyu stood silently aside, her face seemed to be very worried, but there was a hint of schadenfreude in her eyes.

Even though Mengbao doesn't like to care about these things on weekdays, he can't help but be a little angry at the moment.

She didn't believe that Shen Yurong would be so kind to serve her soup, she obviously deliberately spilled that bowl of soup on her just now.

She thought that Shen Yurong was just a little fond of taking advantage, but she didn't expect her to be cautious! I can't see that others look better than me!

If the bowl of soup just now had been accidentally spilled directly on her face, it might have turned out to be hot! Although this Shen Yurong is young, her mind is ruthless enough!

Mengbao raised his head and glanced at her coldly, and was about to say something, but heard a crisp child's voice coming: "Sister-in-law, are you burned?" Does it hurt? ”

It was Shen Nanzheng who spoke, his eyes staring at her without blinking, his eyes full of worry.

Mengbao's anger suddenly dissipated most of it, and his heart softened, and he said softly: "It's okay, sister-in-law doesn't hurt." ”

Shen Nanzheng breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "That's good, I just took a sip of that soup, and it's quite hot." ”

The immature child's serious face eased the tense atmosphere in the room a little, and everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Shen Nancheng frowned and looked at Shen Yurong, and said sternly: "Don't hurry up and apologize to your sister-in-law!" ”

Shen Yurong pouted and said in a low voice: "I have already said humility just now, and besides, my own clothes have also been drenched......

"It's hard-mouthed! You ......"

"Okay," Li couldn't get used to seeing his two children quarreling over Mengbao, and interrupted: "You two go and change your clothes, there will be guests in the mansion later, how can you meet guests like this!" ”

These two people naturally refer to Mengbao and Shen Yurong.

Shen Nancheng was dissatisfied with his mother's favoritism towards his sister so much, and wanted to argue: "Mother, it's obviously ......"

"It's just a piece of clothing, where is your sister-in-law so stingy, you need to talk too much here!"

Li was very dissatisfied with his son's constant talk to outsiders, and interrupted again.

The old lady didn't speak from beginning to end, although her face was not good-looking, she just looked at Mengbao silently from the side.

Mengbao was not annoyed when he heard Li's words, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's just a piece of clothes, I didn't care about the clothes that my mother forgot about Jingxinyuan for half a year, how could I care about this." ”

She particularly emphasized the words "one" and "half a year".

Li's face turned pale, if it weren't for the presence of the old lady, I'm afraid she would have flipped the table!

The second wife and the third wife love to watch this kind of drama the most, although they are silent, there is a smile on the corner of their mouth.

Mengbao's words were not finished, and he turned to Shen Yurong and said, "I went to Yunnifang to make a few new clothes before, and some of them have never been put on before. Because I hesitated and didn't know what to wear during the lotus feast, I put it in the cage first. I thought of waiting for the lotus banquet to send two bodies to the sixth sister, but seeing that the sixth sister was so reckless, I don't know if this dress will be accidentally poured on you again. ”

"The sixth sister also knows that Yunnifang's clothes have always been expensive and difficult to take care of, if this is the case, maybe it will be scrapped after wearing it once, it would be a pity, so I thought about it and kept it for myself and slowly put it on. As for the sixth sister, I will send you a few other clothes when I go back, and the sixth sister will not feel sorry for anything to sprinkle on it. ”

After she finished speaking, she told the old lady to go back and change her clothes, but the old lady was allowed and did not say anything.

Shen Yurong's face turned pale for a while, and she left in a hurry after she left.

Everyone in the room didn't have any intention of eating breakfast, and after a few casual words, they dispersed one after another, and everyone returned to prepare for today's lotus feast.
