The other party said so, Zhuang Yuelan naturally had no way to refuse, because she said, "Then please." ”

It's just that after going to Canglan Courtyard, Zhang Jingui didn't say a few words, and then talked about his purpose for a few days.

And coincidentally, she and Mrs. Qin are in the same idea.

"Sister-in-law, it's a bit embarrassing to say, it's really my unsuccessful girl who is old now, so I want to ask you for a favor and bring her over for a long time. If it's really troublesome, then just assume that I didn't say it, and you must not take it to heart. ”

When Zhang Jingui said this, he still had a smile on his face.

It's really not that she wants to lick her face and come over to beg Zhuang Yuelan, it's just that after the New Year, Qin Hongfei will be fourteen years old, and she is already a big girl. Seeing that when she got the kiss, she wanted to be taken out by Zhuang Yuelan for a long time.

The previous plum blossom banquet was not counted, at that time, according to Qin Hongfei, the mother and daughter of Qin Hongyuan lost face, and even Sister Fei with her failed to show off. Now this emperor's palace banquet, the people who go are either rich or expensive, but it is better than the previous plum blossom banquet.

Zhang Jingui felt that her daughter was worthy of the best in the world, but she hated that her husband was incompetent, and now she could only come to borrow the east wind of the big house.

Originally, she thought that if she talked about it, Zhuang Yuelan would agree.

Who knew that after hearing her words, Zhuang Yuelan just smiled a little apologetically, and said: "Brother and sister, this matter is really embarrassing, the rules in Beijing are strict, and it is a palace banquet, I brought my nephew over, what is the matter? ”

She explained Old Madam Qin's purpose again, and said at the end: "I understand my younger sister's thoughts, but this matter is really difficult to do. ”

Zhang Jingui didn't know that there was such a thing in it, and after hearing what she said, she subconsciously asked: "Mother is confused about this, then Aunt Wang is ......."

Halfway through her words, she seemed to react, and hurriedly covered her mouth and said, "I'm sorry sister-in-law, look at my mouth, I'm quick to speak, don't mind what I say." ”

Even if I don't know what happened that day, the cleaning of the house and the retreat of Old Madam Qin, as well as the violent death of Wang Wanqing, are enough to connect all the clues together.

Although Zhang Jingui had a smile on his face, he couldn't help but feel disdain in his heart. can make a concubine stir up such a big storm in the house, Zhuang Yuelan is really useless.

Thinking of this, she sighed a little, if Qin Ye could have an official position like an uncle and a style of caring for people, how could he be like Zhuang Yuelan?

She muttered these things in her heart, but said again on her face: "It's me who didn't think about it and made my sister-in-law embarrassed, don't take this matter to heart." ”

It's just that she is extremely disdainful in her heart, her mother-in-law looked very shrewd in the past, and she would actually do such a brainless thing. Wang Wanqing on the front foot failed to harm people, and on the back foot, he acted as if he was nothing, trying to let Zhuang Yuelan take Qin Hongyuan into the palace to participate in the banquet.

Is it really that Zhuang Yuelan is a muddy character, just knead it round and flattened?

She sneered in her heart, although she still had a smile on her face, but the hand holding the handkerchief was a little hard.

I knew that she should have come over to beg her sister-in-law yesterday, but now she is behind Old Madam Qin. Zhuang Yuelan has already rejected her mother-in-law, just for the sake of face, and she will definitely not agree to herself.

I can only hate her husband's official position is too low, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to enter the palace, which harms his daughter's future in vain!

The more Zhang Jingui thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and naturally she didn't have the heart to stay in Canglan Courtyard, just when the maid came in and looked like she had something to say, she took the opportunity to stand up and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then I won't bother my sister-in-law, you are busy." ”

Hearing this, Zhuang Yuelan wanted to ask the maids to send her out, but Zhang Jingui refused with a smile, turned around and walked outside.

When he got out of the door of Canglan Courtyard, the smile on Zhang Jingui's face was completely clean, except for the coldness that remained.

And this coldness, after she returned to the room and heard her husband's whereabouts, became more and more prosperous.

"Where did you say my lord went?"

Seeing Zhang Jingui's ugly expression, the maid in charge of replying to the news trembled, and subconsciously didn't dare to speak, but she was afraid of the majesty of her wife, so she could only tremble and say: "Mrs. Hui, my lord went to Miss Jin's ......."

The so-called golden girl was a girl given to him by a colleague of Qin Ye, she was only fifteen years old this year, she was born as beautiful as a flower, delicate and soft, she could be blown down by a gust of wind, and she was pitiful.

And the girl is nominally the daughter of a good family, but in fact she is a thin horse in Yangzhou, specializing in serving people.

Since Qin Ye got this golden girl, he has been staying with her every day, very pampered, and he doesn't even go to Zhang Jingui's room on the fifteenth day of the new year.

Because of this matter, Zhang Jingui had quarreled with Qin Ye a few times, but she was old and decrepit, and her mother's family was not very strong, so she didn't take advantage of it at all. In addition, the mother-in-law was happy to see that their husband and wife were not in harmony, and she repeatedly beat herself, which made Zhang Jingui even more aggrieved.

Listening to the maid's words at this time, the expression on Zhang Jingui's face became more and more ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "On Chinese New Year's Eve, he is still with that little wave hoof, he really did it!"

The maid didn't dare to say anything about her wife, so she could only bow her head and pretend to be quail.

Obviously, Zhang Jingui didn't plan to hear anything from the maid's mouth, and he just vented it.

She was so angry that she was annoyed in her heart, but she was helpless, and after dropping a set of tea cups, she drove away the next person and sat alone in the room sulking.

originally thought that this year she could rely on Qin Yi's promotion to let her daughter follow her into the palace for a banquet, but now her hopes are disappointed, and goodbye to the husband who only knows how to fool around with the concubine, Zhang Jingui feels more and more that this future is hopeless, although he drove away the next person, but the maids outside can hear the suppressed cry in the room.

......

There was not much movement on the side of the third room, and it did not spread to the outside.

After eating lunch and sitting in the house for a while, Qin Yi asked people to come over and spread the word and prepare to enter the palace.

There are not many people in the Zhenguo Mansion, and the two rooms of the big house each took a carriage, and the little maids in the back drove a carriage alone, on which the clothes of the masters were placed just in case.

It was still early in the morning, and the smell of gunpowder mixed with the smell of food blended together with the gray sky, and you only had to smell it with your nose to smell the smell of the New Year.
