Chapter 14, How to Be His Exception
The flower dew in the morning can be used to eat and nourish people, these words were taught to her by Ye Minglan's mother before her death, and when she missed her mother, she collected some dew to make some tea and make some food.
Shen Muqing sat bored in Ye Minglan's yard, watching her carefully take out the collected dew.
She really wanted to know what time Ye Minglan got up.
"Madame, just wait a while, I'll make you a pot of tea first, the tea made in this flower dew water is sweet and delicious, and it is the most delicious."
Shen Muqing remembered the cup of tea that Tao Yu spit out yesterday, and that expression didn't look like it was not delicious, so he asked, "You also made that tea like this yesterday?" ”
Looking at Shen Muqing's puzzled and worried little eyes, Ye Minglan showed a bright smile for the first time, "Only those who have passed the eye can drink this tea, and the tea I brewed yesterday was taught by my eldest mother." ”
After listening to the explanation, Shen Muqing smiled with relief: "So that's the case!" I thought the eldest princess was deliberately looking for fault with you! ”
Ye Minglan put away her bright smile, but she still said with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Second lady, she is used to giving the new concubine a horse, no matter how good the concubine is, she will dislike it, why should the concubine smash her mother's signboard!" ”
"What kind of signboard did you smash?" A sharp girl came from outside the door, they were already sitting in the courtyard, and Shen Muqing knew that half of the conversation just now was heard by Tao Yuan.
"Sister-in-law, you too, Sister Minglan has just entered our Lu family, and her younger brother and sister haven't had time to teach her etiquette, righteousness and shame! Why did you come to talk to her? ”
Shen Muqing has never been a soft persimmon, she put down the teacup in her hand and snorted coldly: "Does the princess think that I don't know etiquette, righteousness, honesty and shame can't teach Minglan to come to Minglan?" Also, a princess is a princess after all, and knows more than us vulgar businessmen. ”
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean?" Tao Ying heard Shen Muqing's bias towards Ye Minglan, and asked a little angrily, after all, the previous Erya would never talk to her seriously.
"Don't you understand what my lady means? Our Lu family can't afford to respect such a heavy courtesy, righteousness and shame, we are just a small trader, if the princess looks down on our Lu family, she will move to the eldest princess's mansion to live, if Lu Ming has any objections, my eldest brother will be the first to teach him. ”
Ruan Muheng turned his left hand behind his back, and slowly walked in from outside the door in a white dress with a golden belt.
Shen Muqing came to see Ye Minglan, he has been standing aside, he will not allow anyone to make Shen Muqing feel bad and feel depressed.
Nothing is more important than that heart.
"How can the eldest brother casually enter the courtyard of the husband's concubine?" Tao Ying looked at Ruan Muheng in front of the door with annoyance.
She just wanted to come to trouble Ye Minglan today, who would have thought that Lu Ming's eldest brother and sister-in-law would be there, although these two people have no power and power, they are people that Lu Ming respects.
Lu Ming respected, the two of them were the ancestors of the Lu family.
If she wants to please Lu Ming, and to get Lu Ming's love, she must first please the two in front of her.
But she didn't expect that the newcomer Ye Minglan would actually have a relationship with Erya one step ahead of her, which made her a little emotionally out of control.
Ruan Muheng frowned slightly, and his tone was mixed with anger, "Is the princess going to wronged me?" When did I step into this threshold? ”
Tao Ying was going to have an argument with Ruan Muheng, but was pulled back by Xing'er in time, and Xing'er whispered: "Princess, what we want to target is that cheap concubine." ”
A whispered reminder brought back all Tao Ming's senses, she looked at Ruan Muheng apologetically, her brows furrowed slightly, "It's that my younger brother and sister are too sensitive, and I hope my eldest brother won't blame me." ”
Seeing Tao Ming's sudden relaxed attitude, Shen Muqing could see that she was going to play the family card, and a tsundere person like Ruan Muheng would definitely not give up on Tao Ming.
At that time, Tao Ying will be the victim, how could she let Tao Ying get a good card, and immediately answered: "Then I don't know if I am qualified to teach Minglan the rules of our Lu Mansion?" ”
Tao Ying nodded, took a step back and said, "Naturally, you can, but I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will be tired, so let my nurturing grandma and sister-in-law teach together." ”
Ruan Muheng looked at Shen Muqing's unhappy expression, knowing that the girl must be starting to get bored, and without waiting for her to answer, he immediately said sharply: "Our Lu family doesn't have so many rules, if you are used to living, you can live, and if you are not used to it, you will leave, there is no need to mention this matter again." ”
Tao Ying only smiled lightly, explained a few words that made Ye Minglan pay attention to the Lu family's face, and left.
Ruan Muheng just nodded to Ye Minglan in the courtyard and left, and the courtyard was clean again, leaving only Shen Muqing and Ye Minglan behind.
Ye Minglan knelt guilty beside Shen Muqing's skirt, "Madam, please forgive me, in that situation just now, Minglan was afraid that her coming forward to speak would make the situation even more chaotic, so..."
Shen Muqing followed Minglan's words and said, "So you didn't speak, right?" ”
Ye Minglan lowered her head guiltily, there was no way, she had no money or land now, and her words would only make the situation more chaotic.
Seeing that Ye Minglan stopped speaking with a guilty face, Shen Muqing was overflowing with maternal love, touched her head and said, "In the future, you won't be so cowardly and hide from others to slaughter, right?" ”
Ye Minglan didn't shed a single tear this time, although she bit her lip with guilt, she still didn't cry, but squeezed out a smile and said: "Madam, Minglan has grown up the moment she marries into the Lu Mansion, please give Minglan some time, Minglan will not let Madame down, no matter what Madame needs, Minglan will do her best." ”
After all, Shen Muqing is older than Ye Minglan, and at this time, looking at the stubborn and sensible Ye Minglan naturally has some different feelings.
She pinched Ye Minglan's face and said, "Your eldest brother and I just don't worry about Lu Ming, we just take a fancy to you as a child, and we want you and Lu Ming to tie the knot and love each other for a lifetime." ”
Shen Muqing didn't pay attention to the motherly smile on her face after speaking.
"Minglan has written it down, this tea is already cold, Minglan will use the remaining dew to make some flower cakes for Madame to taste."
"Otherwise, call me sister or sister-in-law, keep calling me Mrs. and I'll think you're out of touch with me."
Ye Minglan nodded lightly, she was really lucky, she originally entered the Lu Mansion with a death-bound mentality, but she didn't expect to get her eldest brother and sister-in-law who favored her so much.
She seems to gradually see hope in life.
After the flower cake was ready, Shen Muqing tasted two and encouraged Ye Minglan to send it to Lu Ming.
Such a delicious flower cake, she believes that Lu Ming will definitely be nostalgic.
Tao Ying didn't plan to give up targeting Ye Minglan, as soon as she returned to Peony Garden, she asked Xing'er to find Ye Minglan's eldest mother, the head of the Ye family, Zhang Guilian.
Ye Minglan was protected by Ruan Muheng and his wife, and she had no idea where to start, but Ye Minglan was a member of the Ye family after all, and naturally Ye's mother, who watched her grow up, knew what she could handle best.
She doesn't have to harm her, she just needs to know her shortcomings, take Ye Minglan in her hands, and take advantage of the attention that Ruan Muheng and his wife attach to her, so that she can easily get Lu Ming's heart and get the power of the Lu family.
