"Did she really say that?" Inside the house is a noble lady wearing crimson clothes, she is well maintained, but there are two creases between her eyebrows, which doesn't look easy to mess with, this is the current Hou wife Zhang Li of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion.

Zhang Li was born in the Li family, although the Li family did not exist during the war, but because of its transcendent status of the family, after the establishment of Anguo, it gradually recuperated, and there was a posture of the heyday of the recovery period.

Like this kind of family full of poetry and books, it generally looks down on people like the Zhang family, but the situation was different at that time, the Li family had to marry their daughter into the military general's family in order to protect themselves.

But she is not blindly arrogant, although she gives people a sense of discomfort, but the etiquette rules are excellent, so that people can't catch mistakes and omissions, that is, the old lady has suffered a few losses in her hands, if it weren't for the old lady to go straight and straight, if there is a slight disobedience, she will be pinched with filial piety, I am afraid that this Li will be even more arrogant.

Although this Zhang Li family married into the Zhang family as a wife, she looked down on the rules of the Zhang family, and since she married in, she has been asking the Zhang family with the requirements of her mother's Li family, and someone like the Zhang family wants to be prosperous in the court, and she really needs to rewrite the family rules, so she also let her go.

This Li family can't even look down on the Zhang family, let alone the little relatives that the old lady doesn't know about wandering into that corner? As soon as she heard that the old lady had the intention of letting his son marry the lady Rausch as his wife yesterday, she was furious, thinking that even if she tried her life, she could not let the old lady get her wish, but she did not expect that the maid installed today would bring her such good news.

"Did the old lady's niece really say that? She really doesn't mean anything to me? Zhang Li still didn't believe it and asked, her son was so good, she didn't believe that country girl was not impressed, obviously she was stunned yesterday.

"She is indeed like this, the old lady wanted to make a strong match, but the young lady tried her best to dispel the old lady's thoughts, saying that she just regarded the son as her own brother, and said that maybe Mrs. You have already found a family for the son, and she is not worthy of it." The maid Yunjuan's 1510 report said.

Zhang Li finally showed a smile on his face: "Even if the girl is a little self-aware, but she is not the daughter of our Hou Mansion, and she still wants to regard my son as her own brother?" Wishful thinking, I wanted to use some means on her to let her see her identity, but now it seems that it is not necessary for the time being, you continue to stare at her to see if she has any changes. ”

"Mother, now you can rest assured!" A gentle female voice sounded, the woman was wearing a milky white collared blouse inside, the lower body was of the same color, but the skirt was embroidered with butterfly flying flowers, and the outside was a light cyan long gown, which gave people a refreshing feeling in this hot summer.

She only carries a few small beads on her head, chic and noble, here is the eldest lady of the mansion and the fourth daughter Zhang Yanjing, she is seventeen this year, and has promised to marry the third son of the emperor as a wife, only to marry into the royal family in the winter moon.

Zhang Li's proudest thing in this life is to give birth to a pair of outstanding children, and she couldn't help but smile two more points when she watched her daughter pour tea gracefully at this time.

"Mother, my cousin has no intention of treating my brother, so you don't have to worry about your grandmother putting pressure on you." Zhang Yanjing smiled lightly and said, "Have a cup of tea, you've been a little hot in the past two days." ”

"Can I not get angry? It's not that you don't know your grandmother, and your father is stupid, although I'm not afraid, but it's always troublesome. ”

"Grandmother is just worried about my cousin, an orphan girl, and the only relative who was finally found, grandmother inevitably favors her."

"That's not such a preference, what is the identity of your cousin, and what is the identity of your brother? Isn't it a joke to make a fuss? ”

"Isn't it right now? My cousin doesn't have this mind, mother, you can rest assured. ”

"That's just that you don't have a mind for your eldest brother, and who knows if it's to retreat as advance, there are still two children from your second aunt in this house, but that's not about the mother's business, the mother just asks the two of you to be good, you don't worry about it, but your brother's family affairs have to be settled quickly, Lan Xin is also about to be filial, everything has to be prepared, what is your cousin, only Lan Xin is the most favorite daughter-in-law in the mother's heart."

Hearing her mother talk about Li Lanxin, she looked satisfied and happy, but the smile on Zhang Yanjing's face gradually faded.

This Li Lanxin is no one else, she is her mother's cousin, one year older than her, in fact, she should have made a family relationship with her eldest brother three years ago, but it happened that her grandfather passed away, and Li Lanxin had to keep filial piety for three years, so she put it on hold for the time being.

What her mother didn't know was that she and Li Lanxin had been at odds for a long time, not because Li Lanxin had delayed her brother's age, but because Li Lanxin knew that she would be her sister-in-law since she was a child, so she kept taking Qiao in front of her, and the two were both talented and famous nobles in Beijing, and they were often compared, and the two of them were not in harmony for a day or two.

Zhang Yanjing doesn't like an orphan girl like Ye Qiu as her sister-in-law, but she doesn't like Li Lanxin even more, but her mother likes this niece alone, and sometimes even better than her own daughter, so every time she mentions it, she is not interested.

However, I have to say that in terms of family background, Li Lanxin and her eldest brother are very compatible, and she also knows that the eldest brother's marriage is not her turn to marry a daughter who is about to marry outside to put her beak, even if the person she wants to marry is the third prince.

"Mother, my cousin is not used to coming to Beijing alone, and my grandmother is old, so I guess I can't take care of her in many aspects, so I'll go see her." Zhang Yanjing didn't want to talk about Li Lanxin, so she found an excuse to leave.

However, Zhang Li didn't have any joy on Ye Qiu's face, but after all, she was the only relative of the old lady's mother's family, and she couldn't keep saying it, she was unwilling to lower her status to see, and it was better for her daughter to do it for her.

"Go ahead, go to the storeroom and pick up some cloth, jewelry, and medicinal herbs to bring over, and by the way, test what she's thinking." Zhang Li waved his hand, treating Ye Qiu as an autumn wind fighter.

"Yes, my daughter knows." Zhang Yanjing left with a blessing, she didn't notice it herself, and she quietly breathed a sigh of relief when she walked out of this courtyard.

The old lady was reluctant to let Ye Qiu live alone in a courtyard, so she arranged her in her own small side yard, but although the name is called the small side courtyard, but it is not small at all, as the founding hero, the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion is very large, and the old lady lives in this Fushou Hall is the largest courtyard in the house, Zhang Yanjing first gave the old lady a salute, and then came to Ye Qiu's small side courtyard under the leadership of her mother-in-law.
