Chu Qianhuang had just come out of the palace, and as soon as she returned to the Hou Mansion, she came directly to Rongfutang.

Seeing that it was almost time, and everyone was still waiting outside, Chu Qianhuang raised his right eyebrow with a puzzled expression, and the pace under his feet was still unhurried.

She smiled and asked Liu and several other aunts to say goodbye.

The girls in the mansion also said to Chu Qianhuang one after another: "Big sister." ”

Chu Qianhuang is the eldest daughter of this Hou Mansion, and she has always been very kind to the younger sisters below, she has a smile on her lips, and her smile is as elegant and generous as the Shen family, "I brought some beads back, and the younger sisters will come to me later to pick them up." ”

"Thank you, big sister."

The little girls were all smiling.

These bead flowers brought back by Chu Qianhuang were undoubtedly rewarded by the lady in the palace, this creation must be delicate and beautiful, and their eyes looked at Chu Qianhuang even more affectionately.

"Second sister," Chu Qianhuang's eyes looked at Chu Qianchen in the corner, pursed his lips and smiled, "I picked a purple one for you, I remember that you like this color the most." In a moment, I'll have someone send you to Wanyan Temple. ”

"Thank you, big sister." Chu Qianchen smiled lightly, with a gentle smile.

However, what she likes is not purple, but red.

She actually likes red just as much as Chu Qianhuang.

She still remembers that when she was a child, one year on her birthday, her grandmother also asked her to prepare a new red dress with hibiscus flowers embroidered on it, which was almost exactly the same as Chu Qianhuang's one, and her one was embroidered with peonies.

She loved the new dress.

But Aunt Jiang said that she was a concubine and should not have collided with the eldest daughter.

She didn't wear that dress for a day.

"Second sister," Chu Qianhuang glanced into the hall and asked, "Hasn't Grandmother gotten up yet?" "Leaving so many people outside like this, isn't there something important for Mrs. Tai to deal with?

Chu Qianchen shook his head and said, "I don't know. ”

"Sister Huang, your mother is also in there." Liu Shipi said with a smile.

It means that Mrs. Tai has already gotten up, but she just avoided them and Shen Shi talking.

After a pause, she smirked and said, "Sister-in-law and your grandmother are really mother-in-law and daughter-in-law." ”

This seems to be said casually, but in fact, Liu's heart is very dissatisfied.

Obviously, they are all the daughters-in-law of the Hou Mansion, why does Mrs. Tai only discuss with the Shen family when she has something to do, and leave them all outside, she is also the daughter-in-law of the concubine, and she is not the same kind of concubine!

Chu Qianhuang said with a smile: "Second aunt, grandmother has always been kind to us juniors, and grandmother also asked me to tell Aunt Guifei to ask the imperial doctor to show the third sister." ”

When Liu Shi heard this, his eyes lit up, and he nodded hurriedly and agreed: "Yes, your grandmother has always been kind. ”

The injury on her daughter Chu Qianling's face was too serious, and she looked at all the famous doctors in Beijing, and they all said that there would be scars on her face. Chu Qianling was depressed because of this, and was locked in the house every day, refusing to come out to meet people.

All of this is to blame on Chu Qianchen.

Liu's eyes looked at Chu Qianchen with resentment, and at this moment, Mama Wang came out of it, and when she saw that Chu Qianhuang was also there, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Big girl, you're back." ”

"Mama Wang." Chu Qianhuang bowed slightly.

Facing Chu Qianhuang, Mama Wang smiled very kindly, and said earnestly: "The eldest girl is here to ask Mrs. Tai for peace, and the slave will go to report it." ”

Mama Wang didn't rush into the house, and first conveyed Mrs. Tai's words, saying that Mrs. Tai was exempted from today's greetings. It means that they can all go back.

Liu waited outside the house for so long, and she held her breath in her heart, but thinking about the matter of the imperial doctor, she didn't dare to talk nonsense after all, she threw off the handkerchief and left. The two concubines in the second room looked at each other and hurriedly followed Liu.

Chu Qianchen glanced at the hall with a faint expression, and also left.

As soon as she left on her front foot, Chu Lingxiao, Aunt Jiang and Mama Cui came on her back foot.

Together with Chu Qianhuang, they followed Mama Wang into the east room.

Mei'er knelt on the ground, and when she saw Chu Lingxiao and Chu Qianhuang coming in, her eyes flashed slightly, and she lowered her head again.

Chu Lingxiao walked in the front, and as soon as he entered the room, he frowned and asked, "Ah Zhi, what's going on?!" ”

Chu Lingxiao rested in Aunt Jiang's courtyard yesterday, originally at this hour, he should have gone to the Yamen, but as soon as he left the Hou Mansion, the big girl beside Aunt Jiang hurriedly came to him, saying that Mrs. sent someone to take Aunt Jiang to question.

Chu Lingxiao was anxious when he heard this, and immediately came back, just outside Rongfu Hall to catch up with Aunt Jiang.

Aunt Jiang pulled the corner of Chu Lingxiao's sleeve uneasily, her slender body snuggled up to him, her eyes were red, and the tears in her eyes were about to fall, weak and helpless.

Chu Lingxiao gently hugged Aunt Jiang's slender shoulders and said softly: "Don't be afraid, there is Benhou to call the shots for you, and no one will wronged you." ”

When Shen heard this, he glanced at him, feeling a little unhappy.

Since she was a child, Shen knew that she would marry a person who was in the right household, and from then on she would be filial to her in-laws, husband and children, presiding over the middle feed, and managing the concubines, just like her own mother and the housewives of many noble mansions in Daqi.

In the future, her son will inherit her husband's title, and she will become the lady of this house.

This is the life she was destined to play from birth.

She never cared about who Chu Lingxiao favored.

However, this does not mean that she will be climbed on her head by Chu Lingxiao with a concubine.

Shen put the teacup on the coffee table and made a soft crisp sound.

"Bang!"

"Master Hou means that the concubine is framing Aunt Jiang?"

Chu Lingxiao's gaze moved away from Aunt Jiang's pitiful face, and she raised her head to meet Shen's beautiful Danfeng eyes, the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, revealing a knife-like determination.

"......" Chu Lingxiao was slightly embarrassed.

In front of him, the Shen family has always put on such a lofty appearance, without the slightest hint of innocence that a woman should have.

At this time, Mrs. Tai coughed lightly and eased the atmosphere.

She explained to her son: "Mei'er, this girl, said that on the day Mu Ge'er fell off the rockery, she had seen Mama Cui near the rockery. So, I called Mama Cui to come over and ask. ”

Mrs. Tai explained the general matter, and then said to Xi Ni: "Ah Zhi, this is just Mei'er's words, maybe there is some misunderstanding......

"Don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter and give you and Mu Ge'er an explanation. What do you think? ”

Mrs. Tai is an elder and a mother-in-law, she put down her body and asked, in fact, she hoped that the Shen family would accept it when she saw it.

Brother Mu is the only sister-in-law of the long house, and she is also her most valued grandson.

She will give Shen an explanation for this matter, but she doesn't want to make a big deal out of it, so that no one's face looks good.

His son Chu Lingxiao was just punished by the emperor, and during these days, the emperor was in a bad mood because of King Chen, and if he was not repaired by the book, he would be punished again.

However, Shen's expression did not waver at all, and said, "Mother, if Mama Cui has a clear conscience, why did she give Mei'er five hundred taels of silver and kill people." ”

Early this morning, Mama Chen went to Luoguxiang to take Mei'er to the Hou Mansion, and Shen personally interrogated Mei'er.

Mei'er said that she saw Mama Cui near the rockery that day, and later, Mama Cui gave her 500 taels to tell her not to talk nonsense, she accepted the silver ticket, but after returning home, she was infected with "Seven Days of Fu".

Aunt Jiang is Mrs. Tai's distant niece, so the Shen family took Mei'er to Mrs. Tai after hearing this, asked her to say it again, and sent someone to bring Aunt Jiang and Mama Cui as well.

"Mama Cui, what do you have to say!" Shen's eyes looked sharply at Mama Cui.

Mama Cui knelt down with a "plop", shook her head unhurriedly, and said, "Mrs. Tai, the slave doesn't know." ”
