Chapter 22: Sour and Sweet
directly praised Lu Qingrong a little embarrassed.
As soon as Xuan Guogong came back, he heard that Songhetang was happy, and when he came in, it turned out that his daughter-in-law had done something good.
Xuanguo didn't like to eat dim sum on the fair day, but when he saw the crystal clear dim sum in the hands of the old lady and his wife, he was also moved for a while.
"Son greets mother!"
The old lady glanced at it lightly, even if it was a greeting, the dim sum and tea made by this granddaughter-in-law are really speechless, appetizing and delicious, soft and not sweet at all, melt in the mouth, delicious!
Regarding his old mother's reaction, Xuan Guogong is also used to it these days, not to mention her, even if it is himself, when he eats, he is reluctant to speak, for fear of eating less.
Xuan Guogong looked at Zhengxiang's wife and daughter, and looked at Lu Qingrong with a smile, "Give me a piece too." ”
Lu Qingrong naturally would not refuse, and asked the maid to prepare one for Xuan Guogong.
Xuan Guogong tasted it, it was sour, sweet, very appetizing, and I liked it.
"Yes, this Qingrong craftsmanship is good, better than those cooks in the palace, and we are blessed to marry into our house!"
Xuan Guogong's eating appearance was very unsightly, Mrs. Zhao and Nie Jingshuang glanced at it and didn't overdo it, and didn't look at him with disgust.
The old lady snorted and said, "Look at your eating appearance, you are embarrassed in front of your granddaughter-in-law." ”
Xuanguo Gong Nie Ji was not embarrassed, he smiled, "Doesn't this son think the pastries made by your granddaughter-in-law are delicious?" I forgot about it, don't blame my mother. ”
But in my heart, I said something else, what you just ate didn't look very good!
But he didn't dare to say it.
Of course, the old lady didn't want to accuse Xuan Guogong, snorted, and then said, "It is said that eating people has a short mouth and takes other people's soft hands, why don't you see any benefits for others when you eat other people's light things?" Your wife and I have given it all, it's up to you as your father-in-law. ”
is so blatantly asking for things for himself, the old lady is really considerate!
Lu Qingrong had already been moved by this family and didn't know what to say, but now he was even more moved when he heard the old lady say this.
Hurriedly waved his hand, "No need, making food for the family is what the daughter-in-law should do, mother-in-law and father-in-law, you must not give me anything again, if this continues, the daughter-in-law will not dare to do it again, as if the purpose of making food is to take benefits from you!" ”
Mrs. Zhao hurriedly patted Lu Qingrong's hand, "Don't be embarrassed, these are all you deserve, since you have married to the Xuanguo Mansion, who else can we hurt if we don't hurt you?" In the final analysis, it was also wronged that you married Jingyang.
Don't worry, wait a minute! You're bound to have a good life. ”
Mrs. Zhao thought about it and still didn't say anything about Nie Jingyang's life, after all, this matter was a secret of the Xuanguo Mansion so far.
After Xuan Guogong heard the old mother's instructions, he also thought about it for a while.
This daughter-in-law has been working hard since she married into the Xuanguo Mansion.
The food made for them is also delicious.
Such a good daughter-in-law should indeed give some rewards to others.
It's just that he is a big old man after all, and he doesn't know what women like, so what should he send?
After thinking about it, it's better to give silver, what do you want to buy with silver?
Xuan Guogong took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels from his arms and stuffed it into Lu Qingrong's hand.
"Qingrong, this is the pocket money I gave you, if it's not enough, I'll ask your mother for it."
Lu Qingrong looked at the silver ticket stuffed into his hand and couldn't help but smile, "Thank you, father-in-law." He glanced at Mrs. Zhao again and smiled again.
My parents-in-law are really affectionate, and the gifts they give are the same.
Mrs. Zhao's face turned red.
It's not good to send something, you have to send the same thing as her, isn't this a joke for your daughter-in-law?
Xuan Guogong was glared at by Mrs. Zhao and was a little puzzled, did he do something wrong, could it be that he gave less?
Mrs. Zhao looked at Xuan Guogong and looked like she didn't know anything, so she simply didn't look at him.
Xuan Guogong looked inexplicable again, and remembered one thing again while eating.
"Madame will be the banquet set up by the Hubu Shangshu tomorrow, you take Qingrong to meet the world, and I will send you two powerful little men when the time comes."
Mrs. Zhao also remembered that her son had said that he was going to go to the Hubu Shangshu Mansion, and she did not forget this matter.
Hearing Nie Ji say that he wanted to match them, the powerful little guy, he understood what was going on, and nodded with a smile.
It was just a banquet, and with Mrs. Zhao by her side, nothing big would happen if you thought about it.
So Lu Qingrong didn't take it to heart, it didn't matter if she went out to see the world, she couldn't stay in this house for the rest of her life.
It's just that she married a dead man after all, and it is inevitable that she will be gossiped about when the time comes.
However, it would be nice not to take those words to heart.
"Mother, I'm going too."
Nie Jingshuang walked over and said coquettishly, a pair of eyes always winking at Mrs. Zhao.
After all, the banquet that went to the Tobe Shangshu this time was not child's play, it was a cover for his son, so he couldn't be sloppy.
Mrs. Zhao looked at her daughter and hesitated for a while.
Qingrong is probably the first time to participate in such a banquet, it is inevitable that she will be a little nervous, when she takes care of a Qingrong, she will already be distracted, if there is another daughter, I am afraid that if something happens at that time, she will not be able to take care of it.
Mrs. Zhao didn't plan to let Nie Jingshuang go with her, "You don't have to go to this banquet, stay at home and accompany your grandmother, if we all go out, your grandmother will definitely be bored at home alone." ”
Nie Jingshuang pursed her mouth when she heard this, and looked at the old lady coquettishly.
The old lady's heart softened when she saw it, and her face was a little unsightly when she looked at Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao forgot that the old lady didn't know that Nie Jingyang was also going to the Hubu Shangshu Mansion, so not long after her words fell, the old lady's voice sounded.
"Whoever I use to accompany an old woman, let Jingshuang accompany you. Besides, Qingrong will also need to be taken care of by someone at that time, and you still have to deal with the wives of those families, how can you have time to be thoughtful? Let the frost go with you, and Qingrong won't be lonely at that time. ”
Mrs. Zhao thought about it, and it was the same reason.
After all, Qingrong has just married and is a bride, so she can't take her with her everywhere.
Let Frost go with her, and the two of them will also take care of each other.
Although Frost is young, she is indeed very decent outside, and she will not have any major incidents if she thinks about it.
