Chapter 8 Coaxing the Old Lady Professional Household
After a long talk with Mama Liu, Li Tingyu felt that his situation was even more difficult than he imagined.
First, she has no maternal grandparents to rely on.
Second, she has no status at home, and her father doesn't hurt her stepmother and she is still a smiling tiger.
Third, thanks to the blessing of the original owner, her reputation is in shambles. The Lu family should want Li Tingxuan's daughter-in-law more, even if she marries successfully, I am afraid that there will be a lot of troubles.
Fourth, there are too few people around who can use it.
It's a long way to go, why didn't she wear a place where her parents and the whole family were in harmony, how could she turn over now that she was so pitied.
It is impossible to be obediently controlled by this stepmother all the time, and it is impossible in this life. Her life must be in her own hands.
Li Tingyu just chattered like this, and fell asleep in a daze.
When he woke up, Li Tingyu had forgotten his resentment from last night and became high-spirited.
She is not one to admit defeat easily, after all, there are always more ways than difficulties.
"Caixia, why don't you comb Miss's hair quickly." Looking at the lazy maids in the courtyard, Jin Zi was so angry that he stomped his feet.
"Here we are." Caixia threw the melon seeds in her hand to the ground and walked over slowly.
Li Tingyu doesn't care, she has to replace these maids anyway.
The original owner had been staying in the boudoir before, not going out to socialize and not asking the old lady to say goodbye, so the maids had nothing to do and had been very perfunctory to her.
Everyone also knows that there is no future for following the eldest lady, and the real future is to follow the second miss.
But it's good not to go out, at least not to get a tan.
Li Tingyu looked at his snow-like complexion and nodded with satisfaction.
Li Tingyu's appearance is actually only six or seven points, and relying on this pink and jade skin, he is eight or nine points beautiful.
One white covers a hundred ugliness, and the ancients did not deceive me.
Waiting for Caixia to clean up her hair, Li Tingyu motioned for Jin Zi to follow her to greet the old lady.
The other maids had already heard Caiyue say last night that the eldest lady would not give out the reward, so they all stayed in Pinglan Yuan to work.
After all, going to the old lady's Muyuan Hall can't be like staying in Pinglan Garden, you have to cheer up all the time, if you don't behave well, you will be reprimanded by the old lady.
Li Tingyu was not reluctant, left Mama Liu in Pinglan Garden, and walked to Muyuan Hall with the gold.
"What? The eldest lady is here again? After listening to Chunlan's communication, the old lady was really surprised.
Although Li Tingyu also came yesterday, she thought it was just a child's whim, but she didn't expect to come again today.
"Grandmother, I'm here to say hello to you." Li Tingyu entered the Muyuan Hall with a smile.
The old lady looked at this flower-like smile, and most of the doubts in her heart suddenly disappeared, her granddaughter was willing to be filial to her and close to her, what was she not satisfied with.
"Today, the sun is coming out in the west, and we have come to visit my old woman early in the morning." The old lady quipped.
Li Tingyu turned around and walked towards the courtyard.
"Eh, Yu'er......" The old lady was startled, and blurted out Li Tingyu, who was leaving quickly.
After a while, Li Tingyu came back, standing in front of the old lady with a serious face: "Grandmother, Yu'er just took a closer look, and the sun is still coming out of the east." β
The old lady was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "You know how to make grandmother happy." β
"And grandmother, you're not an old woman, you're young."
After speaking, he made a careful look, "Look at this black hair, and this complexion, some people believe that you are in your early thirties." β
It's a woman who doesn't like others to say that she is young, even if she knows that Li Tingyu is exaggerating, the old lady is still happy.
Stretched out his hand and lightly tapped Li Tingyu's forehead, "Hun said, I know how to deceive my grandmother." β
"No, Yu'er said the truth."
As soon as Liang and Li Tingxuan entered the door, they saw such a harmonious appearance of their ancestors and grandchildren.
Liang sighed in his heart, the old lady changed her temper to Li Tingyu in just one night, which is not good.
Liang's face was not obvious, and he said with a kind smile: "What did Yu'er say to make your grandmother so happy, and let your second sister learn." β
Li Tingyu looked back and asked Liang to say goodbye, and then replied: "It's nothing, I guess I look pleasing, and my grandmother is happy when she sees me." β
It's narcissistic as always.
Li Tingfang, the big house maid who followed the Liang family, didn't dare to say a word, and lowered her eyebrows and lowered her sense of existence.
Li Tingxuan is young in the end, and the city government is not as good as the Liang family.
couldn't help but sarcastically say: "Big sister is so amazing, I can make my grandmother so happy once a year." β
The old lady was not happy when she heard this, how could there be many old people who disliked filial piety.
However, Li Tingxuan is her favorite granddaughter on weekdays, she just chuckled and said: "Grandmother is also happy to see Xuan'er, come, come to grandmother." β
Li Tingxuan listened to it and looked at Li Tingxuan provocatively, like a proud peacock striding towards the old lady.
Li Tingyu smiled and said nothing, and at this time, the wife of the second room, Zhao, also brought her daughter-in-law Li Tingyi and two concubines, Li Tingyu and Li Tingxi, to greet the old lady.
"Yo, the big girl is a rarity." Zhao raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Tingyu.
"Second aunt is good." Although Li Tingyu was too lazy to deal with Zhao, he still had basic politeness.
The Zhao family is the strange among the wonderful, and whoever is caught in this family will be redeemed.
When she married Li Yun, the second master of the Li family, her father was only a Dali Temple from Liupin, and he was still very low-key in this family.
Since her father became the Dali Siqing of the third grade two years ago, one level higher than Li Zhou's servant of the Ministry of Rites, she has become arrogant.
Li Tingyu attributed this to the mentality of getting rich overnight, and floated.
After Zhao took the children to take turns to greet the old lady, she spoke up, "Grandmother, I don't want to marry General Lu Xiao anymore, okay?" β
The old lady was stunned by a sudden sentence, "Why did Yu'er say that?" β
Li Tingyu looked naΓ―ve and ignorant of the world: "Yesterday, the maids of Pinglan Yuan told me that General Lu Xiao is a gentleman, and whoever marries will suffer." β
Liang was anxious and immediately denied it: "Don't listen to their nonsense. β
Li Tingyu looked at Liang and continued: "Mother, didn't you always say that I was a top excellent in everything in the past, so why did you marry me to a gentleman?" β
At the end, I didn't forget to add: "Don't you like Yu'er?" β
"Tsk, this group of subordinates who don't have a mouth to cover. When these words get out, the Lu family can't spare us. Zhao took the opportunity to fan the flames.
The old lady glared at Zhao, but Zhao didn't stop: "This is not my mother, so I won't think about others." β
The old lady coughed heavily, and Zhao closed his mouth.
The Liang family was afraid that the Zhao family would continue to add fuel and vinegar, so he immediately explained to Li Tingyu, "These subordinates have never seen the little general, don't listen to their nonsense." β
After that, he pulled Li Tingyu in front of him and looked him up and down, "Our Yu'er was born so beautiful, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, how can my mother be willing to marry you to a gentleman." That little general Lu is handsome and mighty, and it is the most suitable for you. β
"But ......"
