Chapter 2 The Legendary Dismount
The next day, when it was time for the bride to visit her in-laws, the only masters of the Xuanguo Mansion, Xuanguo Gong Nie Ji and his wife, and the only young lady Nie Jingshuang, gathered together in Nie Laotaijun's Songhe Hall, but their faces were not very good-looking.
On the one hand, it is because of the pain of losing a loved one, and on the other hand, it is because of the dissatisfaction with the bride who has entered the door.
The old lady, who is over sixty years old, looks ten years old because of the blow of losing her grandson, but because her body has always been tough, she is in good spirits now, and at this moment she slammed the dragon's head crutch on the ground, and said angrily:
"The Lu family is really too deceitful, and it is clear that Lu Shaoqing's daughter Lu Qingya will marry into my Xuanguo Mansion, why did the person who got on the sedan chair change someone? wants to cling to the power of the Xuanguo Mansion, but is reluctant to give up his own daughter, so he stuffs an orphan girl with no father and mother to the Xuanguo Mansion, how can there be such a good thing! β
Xuanguo Gong Xuanguo sighed when he heard this, and said helplessly:
"Mother, except for the Lu family, we can't find a more suitable second one in the capital, although the second miss of the Lu family is dead, but she still has a reputation for everyone's beauty, we can't find a rural village girl to match Yang'er, right? The Lu family is determined that we will not return people when we find the truth, so we can only swallow this loss, so this is why we dare to be stiff. β
The old lady felt pain in her heart, remembering that the grandson of the dragon and phoenix in her people had been stepped through by countless matchmakers before, but now she could only marry an orphan girl who was barely worthy of the name of the lady, and she couldn't help but feel more and more angry the more she thought about it, so she said to the Duchess of Xuanguo, Zhao: "Daughter-in-law, the bride will come later, you must set some rules for her, and you must let her understand that the advantage of our Xuanguo Mansion is not easy to take advantage of!" β
Nie Jingshuang is Nie Jingyang's sister-in-law of the same father and mother, and she has the best relationship with her brother on weekdays, so she immediately nodded violently when she heard this: "Yes, yes, yes, that's it, what is the Lu family, and if you dare to dislike the eldest brother, you have to give Lu Qingrong a good dismount!" β
"Shut up!" Mrs. Zhao glared at her daughter, with a look of embarrassment.
Seeing this, the old lady was unhappy: "What, are you still reluctant to breathe this out for Yang'er?" β
"No, no, no, how could it be!" Mrs. Zhao hurriedly waved her hand, "It's not that I'm reluctant, it's just that my mother, since my daughter-in-law entered the door, you have never set rules for me, and I won't do anything about this daughter-in-law!" She glanced at the old lady cautiously, "Mother, you are always more knowledgeable than me, or will you come in person?" β
The old lady slammed the table, completely angry: "If I knew how to come, where would it be your turn!" We don't have this tradition in the Xuanguo Mansion, and I haven't learned it either! β
Xuan Guogong: "......"
Nie Jingshuang: "......"
Fortunately, at this time, the maid came in and broke the somewhat embarrassing atmosphere: "Old lady, Mrs. Shizi has come to say goodbye." β
Several people looked stunned in an instant, and they couldn't help but sit upright.
Lu Qingrong walked in calmly.
The old lady looked at her a few times, well, she didn't wear red, but a light blue skirt that was elegant and not light, and her face was still beautiful without a little fat powder, and her appearance alone was worthy of her own baby grandson; Although the pace is a little big, it is not rude, but it is unexpectedly a little heroic, which is unexpectedly in line with her old man's heart.
This, it seems that there is no place to find fault......
The old lady was a little distressed, and secretly gave Mrs. Zhao a "you look at it" look.
Mrs. Zhao: "......"
Lu Qingrong had already come closer, and a maid had already prepared a futon, she knelt down and kowtowed to the elders above:
"Qingrong has seen her mother-in-law, father-in-law, and mother-in-law."
Xuan Guogong is a man, and he is a military general who is accustomed to direct swords and guns, although he is angry with the Lu family in his heart, and he also understands the distress of his mother and wife for his son, but he himself disdains to embarrass a weak woman, so he coughed lightly and said: "Get up and serve tea." β
Lu Qingrong agreed, stood up and served tea to several people one by one.
The old lady took the tea and drank it, although her face was not worried, she didn't say anything.
When Mrs. Zhao arrived, under the urging of the old lady's secret eyes, she had no choice but to take a sip and put down the teacup, and racked her brains to find fault with her face: "Qingrong, since you have married into the Xuanguo Mansion, you must remember to be filial to your in-laws and sister in the future." You didn't have a good reputation in the capital before, and our Xuanguo Mansion didn't know much about you, but as the wife of the prince, virtue and words must not be flawed, look at you today-"
She glanced at Lu Qingrong up and down several times, but she couldn't find a place to find fault, her makeup, words and deeds, and manners were perfect, and even from the perspective of women's morality, no matter what the Lu family's intentions were, Lu Qingrong was willing to marry Nie Jingyang, who died in battle, and was willing to stay alive and widowed for him, and his morality was also blameless.
Mrs. Zhao choked, and when the words came to her mouth, she had to turn a sharp turn: "Women's morality, women's words, and women's appearance are all okay, but women's skills don't know how?" Why don't you show one or two and let us see? β
Lu Qingrong's eyes lit up instantly, she would know this question!
Women's skills not only include embroidery, sewing and other female work, but also include sprinkling, cooking, etc., she may be far behind, but she can cook!
She was thinking about how to build a good relationship with the Nie family, and the opportunity was sent to her eyes!
Lu Qingrong immediately laughed, and two shallow pear vortices appeared on the smile of the flower, which looked a little more pretty, and said crisply:
"Qingrong has this intention, I have heard the maid say on the way here just now, the old lady and his father and mother haven't had breakfast yet, right? I'm going to go to the kitchen and cook it myself, so everyone can try my handiwork! β
"Huh?" Mrs. Zhao was stunned, she just wanted Lu Qing to accommodate the soles of her shoes, make clothes, even if she copied a few volumes of Buddhist scriptures, and let her work for a few days, why did her daughter-in-law open her mouth and go to the kitchen?
The old lady and Xuan Guogong were also stunned.
This development is not right, although everyone will train cooking, but they are basically talking good, at most standing outside the kitchen to command the maid and mother-in-law, who will really cook in the kitchen? Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if this kind of Miss Jiao makes a meal, can she really eat it?
Mrs. Zhao hurriedly opened her mouth to try to save it: "You don't have to be so troublesome, after all, you are a bride......"
It's good to take the soles and copy the Buddhist scriptures, really!
Lu Qingrong waved his hand again and again, his eyes narrowed with a smile: "No trouble, no trouble, it will be fine soon!" β
As she spoke, she simply asked the maid to take her straight to the kitchen, and even her steps were a little brisker.
"Waitβ"
Before the words fell, even Lu Qingrong's figure could not be seen.
Nie Jingshuang opened his mouth: "That, wait for your sister-in-law's meal, are you sure you won't eat your life?" Shall we eat or not? β
It was a tough choice.
