Chapter 063: Be a Queen
In the Ming Mansion, Ming Xuan was lying in the house and did not participate in the so-called Mid-Autumn Festival family reunion.
Anyway, even if she went, it was just a few cold eyes from her father and a few words of persuasion from her steproom. And those so-called younger brothers and sisters, if they weren't greedy for the things she brought back from the British government, they would not even be able to give a "sister".
This home has long been her home.
She once thought that the British Mansion would be her home, but she didn't expect it......
The corners of his lips were hooked sneeringly.
Someone else's home will never be your own.
And no matter how close your relatives are, they will never treat you as a family.
"Miss, Miss Zheng is here." Lan Fang reported with her eyes peeled down.
Although she did not participate in it, because her wife was worried that Miss Biao would be bullied when she returned to Ming's house, she was sent away and continued to serve Miss Biao.
Fortunately, her father and mother begged hard, and Mrs. was worried about Miss Biao, so she still kept her deed - if she became the girl of the Ming family, how could she deter Master Ming and his stepwife.
Ming Yan glanced at Lan Fang and said coldly, "Please let her in." ”
If Lan Fangken helped her, maybe it would have been a success last time.
If she hadn't been able to use Lan Fang's status as a servant of the British Mansion now, she would have sent people away from afar.
After a while, Zheng Yuyan walked in.
"I heard that you have been sick since you returned home, so I took advantage of the night to watch the lights on the street and came to see you. Are you better? Zheng Yuyan sat down on the low stool next to the bed and said warmly.
Ming Yan glanced at her, and instead of answering, he asked, "Are Lord Zheng and Mrs. Zheng still detaining you now?" ”
The warmth and concern on Zheng Yuyan's face suddenly froze.
Since the last time Chu's mother personally "sent" her home, her father and mother learned that she had caused a big disaster, and she was angry and anxious, and after a beating and scolding, she was grounded.
A few days later, she learned that Ming Yan was sent back to Ming's house, and her father's anger gradually subsided, so she found an opportunity to show that her parents were "coerced" by Ming Yan, and the British duchess in order to save Ming Yan's face, regardless of the reason, put the blame on her head.
Only then did her father relax her control.
Rao is like this, and today's opportunity to leave the house was also obtained by her repeated begging and finding her sister as a cover.
She has suffered so many sins for the sake of Mingyi, how can she ask for some interest back.
But in an instant, the concern on Zheng Yuyan's face became sincere again.
"My father and mother are holding me for my own good." Zheng Yuyan sighed abruptly, "Otherwise, how could the Duchess be satisfied?" ”
Seeing a hint of obscurity flashing in Mingyan's eyes, Zheng Yuyan was sarcastic in his heart.
At this point, Ming Yan even put some British princess with her! Everyone is on the ground at a table, who is more decent than whom!
"You're right to say that." Ming Xuan sneered, "But how can the Zheng family's small family compete with the British government?" Are you planning to stay at home for the rest of your life? ”
Of course she refused!
But there's no need to say this to Mingyi, it's useless to say it anyway.
"What else else can I do?" Zheng Yuyan smiled helplessly and sighed, "Grasshopper shaking the tree? Ridiculous and self-defeating......"
Ming Yan knew that Zheng Yuyan was unwilling, so he sent Lan Fang out under the pretext of changing tea.
When the people went out, Ming Yan immediately sat up, leaned into Zheng Yuyan's ear, and said with a smile: "Now there is a chance to turn over, see if you want it." ”
Zheng Yuyan's heart moved, he raised his head to Shang Mingyan's eyes that seemed to be smiling, half-sarcastic and half-seductive, swallowed without saliva, and said in a low voice: "I want to hear it in detail." ”
What is reserved face?
You have to wait for the inside and have the confidence to talk about it.
Ming Yan hooked the corners of his lips and said softly: "Be the queen!" ”
……
After Zheng Chengxian got off the office, he went to the Ministry of Rites and the government office for a while, and saw Lang Zhong Mingda pacing out of the public room, and hurriedly greeted him.
"Ming-sama." Zheng Chengxian smiled at him.
Mingda was stunned for a moment, took a look, and suddenly said, "It turned out to be Lord Zheng." ”
The government offices of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Household are next to each other, and there are always times when they meet every day, and Mingda has the heart to drill the camp, so most of the officials under the six departments are recognized.
"Don't dare, don't dare." Zheng Chengxian smiled and said humbly.
Mingda is the head of the Ministry of Rites of the Sixth Grade, but he is the secretary of the household department from the Ninth Grade, how to call the word "adult" in front of Mingda.
"I don't know if Lord Zheng is waiting here, what do you have to teach you?" Mingda asked with a gentle but proud smile.
"I don't know if Lord Ming has any leisure, Xia Guan wants to invite you to Zuixianlou for a drink or two." Zheng Chengxian smiled and asked.
Mingda was slightly surprised when he heard this, and glanced at Zheng Chengxian without a trace.
From the household secretary of Jiupin, can you invite someone to eat the banquet of the drunken fairy building?
You must know that after a meal in Drunken Immortal Building, the cheapest is about two taels of silver.
Zheng Chengxian saw that Mingda did not directly refuse, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and took advantage of the situation to stretch out his hand and ask: "The carriage has been waiting outside for a long time, Lord Ming, please." ”
"Then Ming is disrespectful, please." Mingda replied with a smile.
He wants to see what Zheng Chengxian can do so much.
The two of them went out of the yamen, took the car back to the Ming Mansion first, waited for Mingda to change into his regular clothes, and then went all the way to the Drunken Immortal Building.
When Ming Yan learned about it, he sneered.
Zheng Yuyan moved fast enough, and in just a few days, she persuaded Zheng Chengxian to come forward for her.
It seems that I have to prepare as soon as possible.
Ming Yan took a deep breath and raised his voice: "Lan Fang, go and get my lotus blue skirt and plain silver hairpin, and then prepare a thin gift, let's go to the British Mansion to visit my aunt." ”
Although he failed to become the master of the British Mansion, he could still borrow the prestige of the British Mansion.
Lan Fang promised to prepare.
After packing up, they said goodbye to their stepwife Ji, and the master and servant took a car to the British mansion.
Seeing that it was clear on the door, he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately welcomed people in, and let people go in to pass the word.
Mingxuan didn't show it on his face, but his heart was sour.
It's only been a few days, and she saw that the British Duchess actually needed to pass it on, heh!
Fortunately, Chu's mother soon greeted her in person, saying that the British duchess was invited.
"After a long time, is Mom okay?" Mingyi's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and he choked up, "I always remember my mother at home." ”
As he spoke, he reached out to pull Chu's mother.
Mother Chu bowed down to avoid it, and replied respectfully: "The status of the slave is low, and Miss Ming should not be so concerned." ”
Mother Chu's respectful and indifferent etiquette stung Ming's eyes, and the words "Miss Ming" pierced her heart even more.
The hand between his sleeves tightened and tightened, and Ming Yan murmured aggrievedly: "Mom is still blaming me?" ”
Mother Chu greeted people inside, and said with a respectful smile: "The slave is confused, I don't know where Miss Ming started with this?" ”
Ming Xuan choked, but she didn't find out that she sent someone to pretend to be Chu's mother to report to Zhang Chi.
Mother Chu couldn't wait for a clear response, and sighed secretly.
If Ming Yan is willing to admit her mistake sincerely, then for the sake of the late Second Miss, she is still willing to protect Ming Yan.
It's a pity......
Madame is right, although Ming Yan is the blood of the second lady, her temperament is similar to her father - the cold-blooded drill camp.
Ming Yan was unfavorable, so he temporarily rested his thoughts, only made his usual gentle and weak appearance, and walked with Chu's mother all the way to the main room.
