Chapter 745: Oolong
Shermulin's laughter alarmed everyone in the room.
Old Madam Xie looked up and asked angrily, "What are you laughing at?!" Didn't you see how annoying the three girls are?! Treating elders so rudely, what's there to laugh at?! ”
Xie Yingrong continued to cry.
Xie Mulin approached with a smile and said, "Old lady, you don't have to suspect that there are things that shouldn't be put in this table. Today, the eldest princess of Yongning chartered a banquet in Guiyuan to entertain His Royal Highness King Yan and a group of royal relatives, during which she invited the eldest brother and the second brother, the eldest sister and me to ask a few words, and ordered someone to reward a table to come over, just kind. Anyway, the eldest princess didn't leave anyone behind, staring at you and eating the whole table, even if you set aside a little to feed a chicken or dog, what's the matter? Although I think this idea is very nonsense, the eldest princess of Yongning is afraid that she will not remember that you have also appeared in the Taoist temple of Zhoushan, but if you can settle down and enjoy this table, it is not a big deal to do a little experiment. ”
Xie Yingrong suddenly stopped crying, looked up at Xie Mulin in disbelief, and then looked at Old Lady Xie.
Old Lady Xie's eyes flickered, and she said stiffly, "I don't understand what you're saying." The eldest princess has a reward, and I am naturally happy in my heart. Because I thought that the third girl had been grounded for the past few days, she didn't have anything to eat and drink, and she seemed to know that she was wrong, so she was called over to taste the good dishes rewarded by the eldest princess, who knew that she was so ignorant and made me angry?! ”
She kept her mouth shut and didn't talk about whether she wanted to test whether the food was poisonous, not looking for chickens and dogs or looking for people in the yard to test, but directly called her granddaughter, just as if nothing had happened, and she really wanted to share the food with her granddaughter.
But she still didn't move her chopsticks to taste the dishes on the table that were already a little cool.
Xie Mulin glanced at it, recognized several dim sum that he had seen on the other side of the stage, picked up a piece and ate it, seeing that Mrs. Xie was dumbfounded, but she gradually showed joy.
It's not poisonous! The banquet rewarded by the eldest princess is not poisonous! The eldest princess doesn't hold a grudge against her? She won't have to worry about it anymore?!
Xie Mulin swallowed the piece that he thought was delicious when he listened to the play, but he was embarrassed to ask for an extra piece of pastry in front of others, his eyes paid attention to the change in the expression on Mrs. Xie's face, and he couldn't help but pout.
Mrs. Xie finally recognized her situation! She is really not that important in front of the eldest princess of Yongning! The escape of life and death was completely scared out by Xie Yingrong! Didn't she already know the truth? Why did you meet the eldest princess of Yongning, and you still couldn't help but make up for those who didn't?!
Xie Mulin thought that his eldest brother might marry the daughter of the eldest princess of Yongning, so he couldn't help but say to Mrs. Xie again: "Old lady, the eldest princess has never killed anyone's mouth from beginning to end, and her former second daughter-in-law also died of illness afterwards, and now her second son not only remarried, but also gave birth to a son with his new wife, and the whole family has forgotten the woman in front of her." Even in the capital, how many people can remember that such an incident happened in Zhoushan? Don't always keep this matter in mind and talk about it, in case you leak it in front of others, you will be embarrassed! The eldest princess of Yongning has always taken care of our family, and she also knows that you are the grandmother of the eldest sister, so she will come down to the banquet. She has good intentions, so don't always think that people want to hurt you. To put it mildly, if it weren't for the eldest sister and Miss Ma's friendship, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess Yongning would know who you are?! ”
Old Mrs. Xie's face was red and white for a while, although the big stone in her heart completely disappeared, which could make her much easier, but her granddaughter said that she had no weight, and even knowing such a major event that would cost people's lives was not worth keeping the eldest princess of Yongning in mind, and this feeling made people's hearts feel unpleasant. She...... She is also the Lady of Sanpin's fate! The son served as a high-ranking official under the command of King Yan, and was once the queen's in-law. She used to be good friends with the female relatives of those high-ranking officials and nobles for many years, even if it was the face of the Cao family, but her status did not drop at all! How...... Worthless? She still has to rely on her granddaughter to make the eldest princess remember herself?!
Xie Mulin also ignored what was thinking in his heart when Mrs. Xie's expression changed, and only instructed Pearl: "The dishes are a little cold, let people heat it up and then give it to the old lady to eat, so as not to spoil her stomach, and the old lady will be suspicious again." ”
Pearl smiled awkwardly, and didn't dare to say that she and Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. He didn't think that the eldest princess of Yongning would poison the dish, but they were also shocked by Mrs. Xie's words. Now it's an oolong, it's really embarrassing.
Shemulin turned and left. After Mrs. Xie personally confirmed that this table was completely fine, she should no longer suspect that the eldest princess of Yongning would be unfavorable to her, right? When the two families really become in-laws, it is estimated that she will not show any tone in front of Ma Yurong. If Ma Yurong knew that her old lady had made such a joke...... Xie Mulin's brothers and sisters also have no light on their faces!
There was a sound of hurried footsteps behind him, Xie Mulin looked back, and saw that it was Xie Yingrong who chased after him in embarrassment, and the sleeves and skirts were still stained with vegetable juice and sauce, and he couldn't help frowning: "What's the matter with you?" ”
Xie Yingrong only chased for a few dozen steps, and then couldn't help but gasp: "You say...... The eldest princess chartered our family's garden to set up a banquet, and called you over to talk?! When did this happen?! What now? Is the banquet over at Guiyuan?! Why didn't you tell me?! She looked anxious, eager to grab Shemulin's arm and ask loudly for understanding.
Xie Mulin caught a glimpse of the stains on her hands, and hurriedly took two steps back to dodge: "The banquet is over, this is today at noon, before the sun goes down, all the guests have been sent away." After a pause, he probably guessed Xie Yingrong's thoughts, "The guests at the banquet are almost all clans and royal relatives, and there are no outsiders, even the eldest brother, second brother, eldest sister and I were also called to enter the garden." None of the people in our family could enter the garden gate, and they couldn't go in to deal with the aftermath until everyone was gone. Even if you had known about the feast, it would have been impossible for you to get in. Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Yongning doesn't remember you at all. ”
Xie Yingrong shook all over, as if he had suffered some major blow, and his face turned pale.
Xie Mulin stared at her twice, and when he saw that she was just standing there in a daze, as if he didn't want to say anything, he turned and left.
Xie Yingrong didn't stop her again, just stood for a while, remembering that today was the day when the Pingchang Marquis Mansion held a chrysanthemum feast. She got up before dawn to freshen up and put on her makeup seriously, but she didn't wait for news from Bian's family. When the sun went down, she knew that she was really abandoned by Miss Bian. She was in a daze, and as soon as she changed back into home-style clothes, she was summoned by Mrs. Xie to "taste the dishes". I thought that it was completely angry with my grandmother, and the other party was going to drug the dish and punish myself, so I learned from the second sister Xie Mulin that this was just an oolong, but at the same time, I also knew that there was also a large banquet at home today, with higher specifications, more noble guest status, and more opportunities, but I didn't receive any news about it, and I also missed it......
Why did Heaven treat her so unjustly?! Obviously let her know so many secrets, but she has always refused to let her use these secrets to fight for a good future for herself, what did she do wrong?!
