Although the second master of the Xu Mansion is incompetent, he is still honest and timid, and he will not do anything too out of the ordinary, and he has a brother who is quite powerful in Beijing, so although the official luck is not prosperous, it is also safe and sound. Then there is the big housekeeper designated by Mrs. Xu and a few old housekeepers to take care of the ancestral property shared by the second room, and the life of the second room of the Xu Mansion is still a wealthy family in Yulin.

Mother Liu said with a smile: "The only advantage of Second Master Xu is that he is filial to his mother and respects his eldest brother, and it is because he abides by the words of Old Madam Xu and Lord Xu that the second room of Xu's Mansion has the current life." ”

Since Xu Bing'er fell into the water and got married, the second Mrs. Xu has been completely deprived of her housekeeping rights and has been "recuperating" in her yard all the year round. Although the second room of Xu's house is now a flat wife and an aunt's housekeeper, the aunt (Xu Xiu'er's mother-in-law) was originally a maid next to Mrs. Xu, and she was an orphan girl without a mother's family, but she took care of Xu's house in an orderly manner.

The matter of the second lady Xu's third mother and son's marriage is known to everyone in Yulin County and the surrounding areas, but the Xu Mansion did not abandon them from the city, but only deprived them of the right to steward and "recuperate", not to mention other people, even the second lady Xu's maiden family has no choice but to deal with it, saying anything about spoiling concubines and killing wives.

In the past few years, the flat wife and the aunt in charge have lived in peace, and no one is looking for trouble in three days (in the past, Mrs. Xu's mother's family always asked the Xu Mansion to help solve this matter), and the number of the accounts in the house is getting better and better (the aunt in charge does not need to make up for her mother's family, and she also knows that her mother and daughter have annoyed the second master Xu and Mrs. Xu There is no good result), the third young master who is promoted as a sister-in-law is fighting again in the school, a month ago, after so many years, Master Xu was also promoted to a level (his boss was promoted, and he was nominated by his boss to take his place)... …

Second Master Xu really feels that everything is going well. More and more convinced that the three of Mrs. Xu's mother and son were "evil stars". Take a look. A "study tour" in the south. One has already married out, and the other is under semi-house arrest in the courtyard, so everything is going well, isn't it? He had secretly decided that when his eldest son came back, he would quickly marry his relatives and divide them into a single life.

Things have developed like this, and Mrs. Xu is also under the influence of Second Master Xu, mainly because the eldest son born to Second Mrs. Xu is not angry, and he is really not as good as the third young master. In the future, it would be more reliable to hand over the second room to the third young master.

Shu Yao and his entourage got out of the carriage, and as usual, the mother next to Mrs. Xu was waiting at the door to greet her: "I have met Mrs. Shizi, I have seen Miss Shu Yao, the old lady is waiting for you." ”

When a few people arrived outside the reception hall, they saw the smiling Mrs. Xu looking out.

After the ceremony, the guests of honor greeted each other warmly, and Mrs. Xu saw Nangong Miao for the first time, and praised repeatedly: "Mrs. Shizi is really as beautiful as rumored, Xiao Yao'er is now also a big girl who is ashamed of flowers, and you aunts and sisters-in-law are going to that station." It's just a pair of sisters. ”

It is said in the capital that Ding Meier, who entered the palace in the draft, is shockingly beautiful, and Mrs. Xu has also seen Ding Meier once. I really feel that it is not as good as Nangong Miao, the wife of the Marquis of Yongping in front of me, and it lacks Nangong Miao's dignified atmosphere.

And it can almost be said that Old Madam Xu looked at Shu Yao, who grew up, her facial features and figure may be inferior to that Ding Mei'er, but the pure spirit that comes out from the inside out is amazing.

The aunt and sister-in-law are both dressed plainly, but they are so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off them.

Nangong Miao smiled decently and affectionately: "The old lady praises it falsely, my father-in-law and Lord Xu are world friends, and the old lady is also very helpful to the three brothers and sisters of Shujie, and they are the elders we respect, and please ask the old lady not to be polite, call me Miao'er." ”

"Okay, okay, Miao'er, sit down, just taste my new high-grade Biluochun, and the freshly baked milk rhombic flour cake. By the way, Yao'er, your sister Nian'er still has a letter for you. "Old Madam Xu really likes Nangong Miao very much, and secretly sighs that she and Shujie are really a pair of talented men and women, so the Tang family is really not blessed.

Shu Yao happily took the letter handed over by the maid: "How is Sister Nian'er?" Nian'er married Chen Wenhao in May last year, and Shujie sent a generous gift to Shuyao.

Old Madam Xu smiled very happily: "It's very good, that child has a good heart, and Wen Hao also cherishes her." Hehe, Nian'er is now three months pregnant. By the time you return to Beijing, she will be almost in production. ”

"Great, I'm going to prepare a gift for the baby, and he's going to call me aunt." Shu Yao is really happy for Nian'er and hopes that she can get a man in one fell swoop. Although Shu Yao felt that it was nothing to give birth to a boy and a girl in the first child, and it was not that she could not be reborn, but Mrs. Chen's kind of person was not a mother-in-law who looked like a good mother-in-law, and she only had Chen Wenhao a son, so she naturally looked forward to hugging her grandson.

The host and guest were talking happily, and the maid came in to report: "Old lady, the fourth aunt and grandmother are here, and I want to say hello to you." ”

Old Madam Xu frowned, when she came back the day before yesterday, Xu Bing'er had already come, what was she doing today? How can a married girl run to her parents' house every day? Moreover, she is meeting a guest, does she not know what to do? The maid will tell her.

Just as she was about to speak, Second Lady Xu and Xu Bing'er had already stepped into the door and stepped forward to greet the old lady.

Then he unceremoniously turned to the direction of Nangong Miao and Shu Yao: "Yo, it turns out that grandmother has guests here?" ”

Looking at Nangong Miao's beautiful and bright face and elegant demeanor, the mother and daughter who couldn't help but be amazed were stunned on the spot, Xu Bing'er's eyes were full of jealousy and unwillingness to believe, she deliberately dressed up here today, just to compare Nangong Miao. What about the eldest daughter of the richest man in the Great Zhou, at most she is a vulgar powder piled up with gold and silver, how can she compare with a noble and beautiful official lady like her? It's a shame that Xia Shujie is still the champion of both civil and military affairs, but he is also blinded by money.

Where can Xu Bing'er be willing? She was forced to marry Yu Erlang, who was twelve years older than him, although Yu Erlang was honest and honest, and loved her very much, but that was not the life Xu Bing'er wanted, such a small person in the market was not worthy of being her husband at all! Xu Bing'er felt like a flower stuck in cow dung.

If she had succeeded in marrying Shujie back then, she would now be Mrs. Hou Shizi of Yongping, and soon she would be Mrs. Hou, what kind of scenery would it be? Now, everything that should have belonged to her has been taken away by a vulgar woman full of copper stench. It's still an ugly woman, otherwise why would you hear that she has to wear a hat when she goes out? Yulin is not as strict as the capital, and it is a woman who has already married, where is it necessary to be as careful as the boudoir girl? People with a bit of possibility want to show themselves in front of people.

But...... But...... Who is this extraordinary-looking woman? How can this be...... Beautiful!

No matter how unwilling they are, Second Mrs. Xu's mother and daughter have to admit that they are indeed too beautiful! The appearance and bearing of this prince and lady are not comparable to Xu Bing'er. In fact, even Xia Shuyao, who was sitting next to Nangong Miao, was now as good as a clear water hibiscus, far better than Xu Bing'er.

In fact, Xu Bing'er is also a beauty, and her temperament is not bad, but in front of Nangong Miao and Shu Yao, she was very sad and became a green leaf that set off the flowers. Luckily, it didn't fall into the weeds next to the flowers.

At this time, the mother and daughter of Second Mrs. Xu can be described as very out of shape, and their distorted faces have changed from initial arrogance to surprise, disbelief, and then to disappointment and unwillingness...... Just stared straight at Nangong Miao.

Old Madam Xu was very angry, but it was not easy to attack, so she reluctantly suppressed her anger and said: "Since you are here, please salute Mrs. Hou Shizi of Yongping." ”

The mother and daughter of Second Mrs. Xu, who came back to their senses, woke up to realize that even if they had not been upgraded to Mrs. Hou, Nangong Miao, the wife of the prince, was now also a third-grade lady, although Second Mrs. Xu was the wife of an official family, she did not have an order, so she naturally wanted to salute Nangong Miao. But...... They ran in bably, was it just to salute Nangong Miao?

Second Mrs. Xu's mother and daughter thought that Nangong Miao would refuse, but they didn't expect Nangong Miao to still sit there quietly drinking tea, and she had no intention of opening her mouth at all. Before she came, Mother Liu told her about the two mothers and daughters who calculated Shujie three years ago, how could she treat them as friends in the world and Mrs. Xu as elders? Naturally, it is according to the rules.

Xu Bing'er's back teeth were painful, and she clearly felt that the two nails were broken in the palms of her hands, but she could only follow Second Lady Xu to salute Nangong Miao.

Nangong Miao just raised her hand slightly: "You're welcome." "The demeanor is all right, but in the eyes of Mrs. Xu's mother and daughter, it is extremely dazzling.

"Okay," Mrs. Xu said, "You go back to Bilan Courtyard (Second Mrs. Xu's courtyard), and Bing'er will go back to Yu's house as soon as possible after talking!" Although the Yu family doesn't have so many rules, Bing'er, you are a girl from the Xu family, and our Xu family is a family with rules. ”

"Yes," Xu Bing'er replied reluctantly, turning to Shu Yao, "Sister Yao'er, I'll go to the Hou Mansion to see you next time, and we'll catch up." "Xu Bing'er has been to the Hou Mansion twice, but she was blocked out, either saying that Shu Yao was going out, or copying the scriptures for her parents, so it was inconvenient to disturb.

Shu Yao smiled politely and detachedly: "I'm sorry, our house is still in the filial piety period, and it is not convenient to entertain guests." For a scheming and unscrupulous person like Xu Bing'er, Shu Yao still has an attitude of not communicating with each other.

Xu Bing'er's well-smeared pretty face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, she didn't expect that even in front of Old Madam Xu, Shu Yao didn't give herself any face at all. After all, after studying together for so long, she just wanted to borrow a little bit of her blessing and the power of the Yongping Marquis Mansion, why was she so mean? At this time, Xu Bing'er completely forgot that when she calculated the three brothers and sisters of Shu Yao three times and twice, did she think about "after all, they have studied together for so long".

Old Madam Xu didn't expect Shu Yao to reject Xu Bing'er so directly, but thinking of what Xu Bing'er's mother and daughter had done, she could only sigh secretly.

Xu Bing'er and the others suddenly came over today, firstly, because they were unwilling to Nangong Miao, and they wanted to make her ashamed, and secondly, they wanted to use the love of their former classmates to get in touch with Shuyao. I didn't expect ...... The two sisters-in-law ....... (to be continued......)
