Chapter 57: Darkness
"Who is Jingqiu?" The name post can be understood, but the name is very unfamiliar, so Lan Sheng asked the mother-in-law who came to report the news.
"Miss Jingqiu is the eldest daughter of the family of Lord Jing of Qin Tianjian." The mother-in-law replied.
The eldest daughter invited her, an unknown eldest daughter, to dinner?
Lan Sheng asked again, "Who else did you give this post to your family?" β
The mother-in-law shook her head, "I pointed to your name, but you are the only one in the mansion at this time, and the other four young ladies have entered the imperial city in the morning." β
Is it because she has a problem with her ears, or because she has a small chicken belly, she feels like she is being blamed for eating white rice at every turn. Or, maybe she doesn't talk much, so everyone talks more than her. She looked at this woman and looked at herself very unpleasantly.
Since it is not pleasing to the eye, doing nothing is what a wayward lady must do, she waved down, "Zhilu said, you go to the door to entertain the poster for a cup of tea, and I will send someone to reply later." β
The servants in this family seem to like to put on a show in front of Lan Sheng, and the mother-in-law is no exception, and there is still some displeasure on her face, "Miss Lan Sheng just came to the imperial capital, and she may not know what to do, Lord Jing and our lord are almost equal in front of the emperor, and Miss Jing is a figure that celebrities and ladies compete to make friends with, since she invited you, there is no reason for people to wait." β
"Jin Wei also rushed to Baba?" She's curious.
The mother-in-law was stunned, and subconsciously replied, "Our eldest lady naturally doesn't have to be like this, but the third and fourth misses-" Wait a minute, why do you say it so flatteringly?
"Laughing around the bush at me, elbowing to the family of Lord Qin Tianjian, you shouldn't be a meticulous work sent to Nanyue Mansion by someone with a heart, right?" That's when the storm began.
The mother-in-law raised her eyes to look at Lan Sheng, who was covering her mouth and snorting on the seat, and suddenly realized that the other party saw that she was impatient. remembered that Gao Bao's family chewed the root of his tongue with his daughters-in-law a few days ago, saying that Miss Lansheng was as powerful as Mrs. Mei. She happened to hear it, but she only had the courage to be a high-ranking family. Obviously, I haven't seen Mrs. Mei's power back then. Now Mrs. Mei is curled up, in order to regain a foothold in Nanyue Mansion, which has been away for many years. So. What are you afraid of their mother and daughter?
"Does Miss Lan Sheng have any evidence for saying this?" She is not the stupid daughter-in-law of the Gao Bao family, she has been mixed up in the house over the years, and she can be regarded as a human spirit.
"Just because you dare to ask me for credentials." Lan Sheng's smiling face was put away, and the narrow eyes of Feifeng, who were tricky and cold, dared not ignore it, "I just came home, and I don't want to teach you a mother-in-law like a bully, but you can't forget it like this, you will go to Mrs. Ju and Mrs. Butterfly to receive the punishment after you take the turn today." β
The mother-in-law didn't know what was wrong when she heard it, and she opened her old mouth and smiled crookedly. I thought it was nothing more than that, the thunder was loud and the rain was small, and I didn't dare to punish herself, so I said that she should be punished by herself. What can she do if she doesn't go? And she was sure that this incompetent young lady would not be reluctant at all, just pretending to be the master.
The mother-in-law thought about it, turned around and left, not even bending her waist.
Xiang'er, who was waiting on the side, couldn't help but be angry, "It's such a big shelf, relying on the old and selling the old." More proud than the master. β
Lan Sheng took the post and got up, "Looking at people like this can also learn something, tell yourself not to be like her, she will be annoying when she is old." β
Xiang'er followed Lan Sheng. "Miss doesn't care?"
Lan Sheng smiled heartily, "When did you see me magnanimous?" I'm not just going to have to worry about it. I have to deal with her in pairs, and fight it as a self-esteem defense battle that either she dies or I die. β
After speaking. instructed Xiang'er to look at the yard, and when she went out, she sent a task to Wuguo. Fruitless gone. She went alone to the main courtyard to see her mother.
The old lady did not seem to want to see her, and after the day of the punishment, she was exempted from asking for peace every day. Mrs. Ju was invisible to her, as if she was going to die of old age. Mrs. Butterfly had to entertain her, teaching her a standing posture to pass the time for half a day. The two sisters-in-law were angry when they came to the door, and the two sisters-in-law were more difficult to see than fairies. However, her dealings with her mother belong to the category of going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and the cold reception of others is not at all caring.
Lan Sheng ate a cup of tea in the outhouse, and Wu Mei was helped out by Ge Pozi.
She has slanted sideburns, her cheeks are crimson, her bright eyes are covered with light veils, and her eyes are hazy.
"My mother doesn't seem to be as good as Yaozhen at that time, I know that there are many things in the family, and I have to worry about my mother everywhere, but my mother must distinguish between priorities and priorities, don't lose big because of small things." When the words came out, Lan Sheng herself was stunned, because no matter how she looked at it, her mother was radiant when she ate and slept well.
Wu Mei let go of Mrs. Ge's hand, sat on the top seat, lowered her eyes to blow the tea, took a sip, and then raised her face to look at her daughter, "How can I provoke you for my mother, I will quarrel as soon as I come up." Last night, I transcribed the memorial text for your father, and when I slept at dawn, my mother-in-law didn't blame me for being absent, and it was not your turn to ask me about my teacher. β
This is definitely a mistake of his own, Lan Sheng turned quickly, smiled and apologized, "It's all because the rain is not good, I saw the wrong look and said the wrong thing for a while, my mother is not to blame, my mother is hard." "Even the servants showed her the face of the house, if you want to be comfortable, you have to be close to her mother.
Wu Mei laughed, "When you get better, your tongue will be bent, but you don't hate it in your ears." Say, what's the matter? β
Lan Sheng handed over the post, and when her mother read it, she said, "Although the other party is a celebrity in the imperial capital, after all, they have never met, so it seems inappropriate to rush to the invitation." But it's rude to say no directly, so I'll ask you what you mean. β
Wu Mei put the post aside, "Your memory is reallyβlet me say it." People who have never met, why did Jingqiu invite him? Nature knows you. The two of you played together for a few days when you were younger, and you're the same age as her, so you get along quite well. It's just that it doesn't take long for you to leave the capital. You wrote her several letters along the way, like a sister. β
Lan Sheng smiled silently. Not to mention the seven-year-old thing, it was half a year ago, and she doesn't remember it. However, although she has no memory, since she was reborn, in order to obtain information about the deity, she opened every box in the room and did not let go of a single scrap of paper. Number of letters, none. Because of this, she responded coldly to An Hu. She doesn't want the wild goose to come and go frequently, even if it is a few words from a long time ago, her attitude will be different.
She also thought that it might be that the deity herself took the initiative to alienate her old friend from Zhuma. It's not logical, though. Nanyue Lansheng, who was forced to leave home with her mother at that time, should have longed for a companion to comfort her. If these friendships are lost later due to the distance of time and space, the old letters will also be kept. Unless, in the first place, there is no faith. Now Wu Mei said that she wrote several letters to Jingqiu at that time, and she is even more sure that the other party is estranged. Since it can't stand the test, there's no need to pick it up, she thinks.
"My mother said that I was unwell, so help me push it. You are an elder, and you will not show me to put on a show. "She still cleaned up the friendship when she was young.
Suddenly thinking of the face of the demon moon, alas-she must not offend him, I wish he had cleaned her up sooner rather than later. It should be, look at him as if he belongs to that romantic but ruthless, even if he likes to provoke everywhere, he will have no memory when he turns around.
Wu Mei looked at her daughter, "It's okay, I just came back with you, and the family just had a funeral, so it's really not appropriate to go out to make friends and have fun, I'll help you push it." "Called Youxia and asked her to go to the concierge to reply.
Although she didn't make friends and have fun, she didn't let herself be idle, and her life was so colorful, if her mother didn't mention it, she didn't remember the mourning period. However, hearing that her mother really adopted the statement that she was unwell, she raised her eyebrows, hid the cold color in her eyes, and got up to say goodbye.
"Youhua's injury is almost healed, I'll let her go back to you tomorrow." Wu Mei Dao.
"There is a shortage of manpower around my mother, but it is idle to send it to me, so it doesn't hurt for you to keep her to help." Take this opportunity and win-win.
Wu Mei smiled at the corner of her mouth, with an elegant appearance, "I took in flowers and no fruits to be a companion for you, if you don't want flowers, I will let her go." β
It's ruthless! Lan Sheng squinted, "Youhua, that girl is not like me, she is stupid to treat you as a mother, if you know how sad it would be if you abandoned her so easily." You are not afraid of losing a good daughter, but I am afraid of losing a speaker. "Youhua is the spokesperson, which can reflect her dark and refreshing spirit of dancing and dancing, and she is quite competent.
"Speaker?" Wu Mei didn't understand.
Lan Sheng didn't explain, as he spoke, the person had already stepped out of the door, "Then you can let her come back, there is not much more." β
Not long after Lan Sheng left, Youxia came back to his life.
The slave told the person who sent the post that the young lady was unwell and could not be invited, and the person's face became ugly. After he left, the slave ran into no result, and it turned out that the mother-in-law who handed in the post couldn't speak, so she actually hinted that the young lady had a big shelf and deliberately delayed replying. Fruitless said that the mother-in-law also straightened her waist when she spoke to Miss, and said to her face that Miss had just come home, and she didn't understand the reason why she didn't refuse people. The young lady sent a message to ask her mother-in-law to go to Mrs. Ju to receive the punishment, but the slave saw that she didn't have that idea at all, so she was arrogant. Wuguo also said-" In a low voice, he also said what Lan Sheng said.
Wu Mei first made a calm face, and then smiled, "She has found a good reason for me, if I don't use it, I can't just anyone can be powerful on my mother and daughter." You let Wuwan and Wuguo go through the mother-in-law's house without a trace, and then come back to me. β
Youxia responded.
Mrs. Ge sighed, "Miss will also make a scheming." β
"It's time to know, I used to know how to play tricks, but I don't know if anyone will put up with her all the time except for her father and mother. She was much more cheerful after her illness, as if she had grown up overnight, and reminded me to find a good family for her. Wu Mei said.
"Didn't the master want to find someone to resee Miss Lan Sheng's life? Just to see if the red luan star moves. "Ge Pozi has some expectations, because she is a woman, she loves to manage marriage, and like motherhood, she has inherited her genes from generation to generation.
Wu Mei disagreed, "It was confirmed that this child had a short life, but it turned out to be a catastrophe." If you want me to say, you don't have to rewatch it anymore, it's better to collect the matching eight characters, pick a son with a good family background and good learning, and the marriage is important. β
Mrs. Ge is shrewd, "I'm afraid that those two ladies will make a hindrance from it, and they will match Lang casually, and wronged Miss." β
Wu Mei sneered, "My mother and daughter have been wronged for thirteen years, if they think they can continue to bully us, they have to wait for the recruitment." My daughter will marry a noble man, and I have sworn a vow, but how can I not fulfill it? (To be continued......)
