Chapter 95: Fawning
After the carriage left the gate of Xiaofu, Yu Panxi lifted the curtain and instructed the coachman who was driving the car: "Don't go to Yufu, go directly to the city and go to Tai'an Temple." ”
"Miss?"
Silver Bell called out to her, apparently puzzled by her command.
Didn't you say that you would go back to Yufu to live for a while? Why do you still want to go to Tai'an Temple?
She originally thought that Yu Panxi had dispelled this idea.
"When I came out this time, I was originally planning to go to Tai'an Temple."
After Yu Panxi finished speaking, he was afraid that Yinling would be worried, so he added: "Tai'an Temple is not far from Kyoto, and it will be fine." And I've been a little irritable lately, so it's good to listen to the Buddhist scriptures and adjust my mood. ”
Silver Bell had been by her side for so long, and she couldn't hear that this was just a word of comfort to her. However, she is a subordinate, and thinking that Yu Panxi is right, it will only take half a day for this Tai'an Temple to go back and forth to Kyoto. I don't think anything will happen along the way.
Thinking of this, she no longer persuaded her, so she had to sit back helplessly, took out the candied fruit that she had specially prepared before, and placed it on the small table in the carriage for Yu Panxi.
As for Yu Panxi's words, the driver who drove the car didn't dare to ask more. Even if this was different from what Steward Liu had ordered before, he only responded to it, adjusted his route slightly, and drove in the direction of the city gate.
Let's talk about Xiao Feng's side at night.
After she returned to the Ming Marquis's Mansion, she asked the maid to take the candied snacks she had bought halfway earlier and went to Luo's.
After saluting, after Luo Mei asked her to sit on the chair next to her, Xiao Fengwan asked: "I haven't been back for a long time, I don't know how my mother is lately?" ”
Although this sentence is just an ordinary greeting, Xiao Fengwan came back this time with a purpose, which makes people wonder if she is using this to test Luo Mei's mood today.
It's just that she is the first daughter born by Luo Mei, although she was inevitably raised crookedly by the latter, but she has always been much calmer than Xiao Fengyu and Xiao Kite.
Coupled with the fact that she was already married, Luo Mei naturally didn't think much about it.
Even though he knew in his heart that this daughter should not just visit him when she came back this time, she replied: "It's all good." It's hard for you to have a heart and come back to see me. ”
Isn't it?
Since Xiao Chumo moved, he basically hasn't come back much. Without the thorn in her eye, her life is simply comfortable! In addition to pretending in front of Xiao He, she is simply smooth sailing in the house.
Hearing her say this, Xiao Fengwan knew that she was in a very good mood, and she had a little bottom in her heart.
So, with some flattering smiles, he said: "Actually, my daughter came back this time because she had good luck a few days ago, and she happened to get a red agate pendant with a very good color." The daughter had never loved these jewels, and felt that such good things should not be left in the dust, so she used them to honor her mother. ”
That's a clever way to put it.
She clearly used it to please Luo Mei because she liked jewelry, but she didn't mention it, but said it was her own reason. At the same time, the purpose of this trip is also placed under the cover of the word "filial piety".
I have to say that probably because I am married to a wife and become the master of my husband's backyard. Xiao Fengwan's mind was obviously a little longer than when he was in the boudoir.
She said as she glanced at her personal maid. The latter immediately brought up the brocade box in his hand, opened it and placed it on the table next to Luo Mei.
Luo Mei raised his eyebrows and saw that there was indeed a pendant with exquisite work inside. Bordered with gold, although the red agate in the middle is not very large, it is very good in fineness, and can almost reflect her shadow.
As half of the master of the Ming Kingdom's Hou Mansion, Luo Mei has seen a lot of jewelry. But the agate with such a good color is indeed not seen a few times.
I picked it up right away and looked left and right, obviously I liked it very much.
Xiao Wanfeng saw that she was happy, so she hit the railroad while it was hot: "Since my mother likes it, why don't you wear it and try it." ”
After speaking, after seeing Luo Mei nodding in agreement, she simply picked up the pendant herself and put it on for the former.
"Sure enough, such a precious pendant can only reflect its value if it is placed here by the mother."
Regardless of the effect, Xiao Wanfeng praised it without hesitation. Zhikua Deluo's eyebrows bloomed, and the smile on his face couldn't be contained.
Women love beauty, and Luo Mei has become more and more arrogant in recent years.
Hearing Xiao Wanfeng's praise, she immediately touched the pendant and admired herself, and praised it in her mouth: "It's rare that you have these thoughts, and you are much more sensible than your two younger brothers and sisters." ”
"After all, my younger siblings are still young, and they are somewhat naughty. I hope my mother will be more patient. ”
Xiao Feng looked very modest in the evening. Secretly, he bit his lip and became a little anxious.
Luo Mei has always thought a lot, she doesn't believe that she hasn't found out that she has a purpose. But the former didn't ask, and she didn't want to mention it.
Where can the thoughts in Xiao Fengwan's eyes be hidden from the sharp-eyed Luo Mei.
But she remained silent, just slightly retracted the smile on her face, and said without a trace: "Speaking of which, it has been some time since you married into your husband's family." If there are any difficulties, be sure to tell me, after all, this is your mother's home. ”
Luo Mei took the initiative to bring up the conversation, and Xiao Fengwan also took it easily: "Nothing else, it's just that my husband has been in this position for a long time, and he is inevitably a little anxious." The daughter wondered if she could persuade her father to mention it. ”
Luo Mei nodded, if this was the case, she could blow the pillow wind next to Xiao He's ear. It's just that whether it succeeds or not, it depends on Xiao He's meaning.
This sentence, she also said it as it was for Xiao Fengwan to hear. The latter is naturally grateful.
"Speaking of which, I need to mention you too."
Luo Mei seemed to remember something, looked at Xiao Fengwan, and said with some seriousness: "You must always remember your identity, don't let the concubines in the backyard of the Liu family suppress it." He Liu Lu is just a small lieutenant from the fifth grade, and there are more places to rely on our Ming Marquis Mansion. You can't be short of momentum. ”
The latter was shocked, and hurriedly nodded down: "My daughter knows." ”
The Liu Lu mentioned in Luo Mei's mouth is naturally Xiao Fengwan's husband. Although the official position is not big as she said, she is also a merry person, and she has married one or two concubines in the family.
And although Xiao Fengwan married as a housekeeper, she was a serious lady in the boudoir, and she had never learned any means to please her husband. Life in the Liu family is indeed not very easy.
If it weren't for the presence of this Ming Kingdom Houfu behind her, I am afraid that life in her husband's house would be even more difficult.
This is also one of the reasons why she came back to her parents' house this time.
It's just that Luo Mei's words really startled Xiao Fengwan.
She didn't plan to say the cold eyes she suffered in the Liu family, after all, it was a bit embarrassing, but I don't know where Luo Mei heard a little rumor?
