Listening to Leng Changxi's words, Ruan Ruyi's forced smile froze on his face, and Tang's face became extremely embarrassed, but he saw Qin Yunuan who was following Leng Changxi dressed like a good person, and immediately greeted him, took Qin Yunuan's hand and said flatteringly: "Yo, this is Lord Pingjun, it's really a lovely person, I like it when I look at it." ”

"Aunt Tang likes it," Leng Changxi said coldly, her cold eyes shot out of the black mask, with a kind of solemnity that was not close to the idler, "The most important thing is that the mother concubine likes it, after all, Yu Nuan is the daughter-in-law of the mother concubine, Aunt Tang, your own daughter-in-law is standing on the side." ”

Leng Changxi's words were straightforward and sharp, which made the enthusiasm of the Tang clan, who originally wanted to put on a good face, suddenly dissipate, Princess Ning sat on the half-used dark green collapse, leaning on the pillow, but she only smiled very gently, she did not prevent Leng Changxi from working against the Tang clan so obviously, because she had never liked this wall grass Tang clan in her heart.

At that time, when Princess Ning had not yet married, Ning Wangfu was the side concubine Cao Shuxin alone, and this Tang family was attached to Cao Fang Concubine in every way, and not long after she married in, this Tang family wagged her tail to surrender to Cheng, and told Cao Fang Concubine about those things and all her weaknesses in private, fortunately, I listened to the words of the nurse at that time, and knew that it was absolutely impossible to trust a person like this who came to surrender to Cheng so flatteringly, she can betray others like this, and sooner or later she can betray you.

Therefore, for so many years, although Princess Ning is the mother of Ning Wangfu, she has always kept a proper distance from Concubine Cao and Aunt Tang.

"Sister, don't take it to heart," Princess Ning opened her mouth with a smile and said to the Tang family, "Changxi has also been spoiled by me since he was a child, and he always speaks so directly. The implication is that Princess Ning also agrees with Leng Changxi's statement.

"It's good to be direct, it's good to be direct." Tang sat down awkwardly as he responded.

Ruan Ruyi didn't give up yet, she said to Princess Ning with a shy face: "That mother, what the daughter-in-law just said, then you ...... Can? ”

"You mean the shops in the east of the city?" Princess Ning looked suddenly enlightened.

"Yes," Ruan Ruyi said cheekily, "Although the shop was originally from the Xifu, but in recent years, it has not been managed well, and we have sent people from the East Mansion to take care of it, so it is better for us to bring it and run it ourselves, so as not to let the Xifu side get cheap for nothing, mother, you say yes." ”

Ruan Ruyi's mouth of the West Mansion is actually the second room of King Ning's Mansion, now King Ning's younger brother Leng Zhongxiao's branch, according to the convention, Leng Zhongxiao should have been divided into mansions early and set up his own door, but this Leng Zhongxiao is lazy to do, and he is a little reckless and nonsense, King Ning is really not worried about this younger brother, so he allocated a quarter of the courtyard of King Ning's Mansion to this younger brother and sister-in-law to live, called Xifu, although the east and west mansions are in a house, but the relationship does not seem to be as close as imagined, It's probably that this second old man of Xifu is too capable of causing trouble, which always gives King Ning a headache.

Take a few shops in the east of the city, the original location is good, the transportation is also convenient, it is a good place to make money, but a jewelry store, a silk village and a rice grain shop, originally all of them were a big and profitable business, as soon as the second master of the West Mansion took over, he lost all his money, and thanks to Princess Ning secretly sent her mother's family to take care of it, it has only improved in recent years, but this little bit of improvement has been targeted by the flies in this house, and the first to bear the brunt is Tang and her shrewd daughter-in-law, Ruan Ruyi.

"Well, that makes sense." Princess Ning nodded, and just when Ruan Ruyi's face was about to show a happy expression, Princess Ning changed her words and said, "It just so happens that I haven't prepared a meeting gift for Yu Nuan, since this is the case, I will hand over these shops to Yu Nuan to take care of, and it should be a meeting gift for this new daughter-in-law, after all, fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields, right." ”

Qin Yunuan was slightly stunned, and felt that the hostile eyes of Tang and Ruan Ruyi were shooting straight like steel knives, she knew that the abacus of these two people had failed, and she would definitely blame herself, but she had already been mentally prepared, since she decided to marry Ning Wangfu, she was destined to face some competition.

Qin Yunuan raised her head generously, but just smiled at Ruan Ruyi and Tang: "Sister-in-law, Aunt Tang, that's really embarrassing." After speaking, he bowed to Princess Ning dignifiedly: "Thank you, Princess, Yu Nuan likes this meeting gift very much." ”

Seeing that Qin Yunuan not only did not retreat for fear of power, but also generously accepted her kindness, Princess Ning nodded with great satisfaction, and said to Ruan Ruyi and Tang: "What? Is there anything else you'd like to discuss with me? ”

Ruan Ruyi and Tang are both shrunken heads.

"Okay, since there is nothing else to do, let's go back first, now that I am also tired, Changxi and Yunuan will stay and talk to me well." This obviously means to have a private chat with his son and daughter-in-law, in the end, there are two yards, and there will be a gap.

Seeing Ruan Ruyi and the Tang clan retreating unwillingly, Qin Yunuan just turned around and looked at Princess Ning with a smile, Princess Ning's maids sometimes said in private that Princess Ning was too kind and didn't dare to fight, so she made Aunt Tang and Concubine Cao so arrogant, but Qin Yunuan felt that Princess Ning was pretending to be stupid and pretending to be extremely clever, or rather, Princess Ning was very aware of the stakes of various matters in her heart, losing a little in small things, sticking to principles in big things, and making sure to make a profit.

"Come, sit down." Looking at Qin Yunuan's calm and well-behaved appearance, Princess Ning couldn't help beckoning to Qin Yunuan and pulling her to sit beside her, such an intimate and natural action made Qin Yunuan suddenly have an illusion, as if her mother called her to go to bed and watch her mother embroider when she was a child.

Princess Ning leaned over, changed to a more leisurely and comfortable posture, and took Qin Yunuan's hand with a smile and put it in her palm: "I heard Changxi talk about your life experience. Princess Ning spoke.

Qin Yunuan subconsciously glanced at Leng Changxi, who was sitting next to her and bowed her head to drink tea, she knew that the relationship between Leng Changxi and Princess Ning had always been close, and it was not good for Leng Changxi to say these things to Princess Ning, but Qin Yunuan was afraid, she was afraid that Princess Ning would have a mustard in her heart, all along, Qin Yunuan was pointed at and scolded as a concubine born to an embroidered girl, even if she was now named a county lord, if Princess Ning also had such thoughts......

"It's really pitiful," Princess Ning touched Qin Yunuan's face lovingly, her soft palm carried a kind of mother's love and warmth, "When I think of your daughter's family, taking my brother alone in the Taiwei Mansion, I feel distressed, I must have suffered a lot." ”

Princess Ning's tone was sincere, full of a sincere pity, Qin Yunuan could hear it, and she also knew how to judge.

Qin Yunuan lowered her head slightly, only glanced at Leng Changxi, and said softly: "Now that Yunuan has come to the end of her life." "Yes, I met Leng Changxi, I met so many good people, the ending of this life is much better than in the previous life, now Qin Yunuan's only worry is Baochuan, but fortunately, there is still Aunt Chang in the Taiwei Mansion to take care of it, there are always good people in the world, Qin Yunuan firmly believes.

"Okay, it's good to be bitter." Princess Ning smiled kindly, and then turned her head to Qingzhu, the eldest girl who was waiting beside her, and said, "Go and bring the meeting gift I prepared." ”

"Aren't those shops already ......."

"That's what I coaxed them," Princess Ning said with a smile, "The woman Changxi likes, how can Changxi's wife only have those few shops?" Princess Ning said as she took a palm-sized brocade box handed over by Qingzhu and handed it to Qin Yunuan.

"Open it and take a look." Princess Ning said.

Qin Yunuan lowered his head and carefully opened the royal blue brocade box, which contained a copper key on the red soft cotton cloth, and a red rope on the key, which seemed to be a sign of something.

"This is the secondary key to the account room of King Ning's Mansion." Princess Ning simply spoke.

"Mother, how can Yu Nuan be virtuous." Qin Yunuan was really flattered, this was just the first day, Princess Ning handed over the key to the account room in charge of the financial expenditure income of the entire Ning Wangfu into her hands, this surprise was like falling from the sky, and Qin Yunuan was caught off guard.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse," Princess Ning smiled and pushed the key back into Qin Yunuan's hand, "This key is naturally not given to you for nothing, you first hand over the shop I just handed over to you to take care of for a month, I'll see how it works, after all, this is just the secondary key of the account room, without this key of mine, you can't manage the account room, how about this?" ”

This is a challenge, but also an opportunity, and it is Princess Ning's trust and initiative to get close to Qin Yunuan, Qin Yunuan has no reason to refuse.

"Thank you, Princess." Qin Yunuan accepted it calmly.

After talking for a while, Leng Changxi still had affairs to deal with in the army, so he left first, and when Qin Yunuan went out, it was already close to noon, and there was no one around, even the sparrows knew how to return to the nest quickly to escape the heat, but when they walked to the verandah, from a distance, Qin Yunuan saw a somewhat familiar figure.

"Third brother and sister." Seeing Qin Yunuan approaching, Ruan Ruyi took the initiative to greet him, his hair was already wet and sticking to his forehead, and he didn't know how long he had been waiting under this scorching sun, so he seemed to be prepared.

"Why is my sister-in-law waiting for someone here? Look at this sun, the sun is so hot that people are going to faint. Qin Yunuan obviously knew that Ruan Ruyi was waiting for her, but she didn't make it clear, she just had to wait for Ruan Ruyi to speak.
