Chapter 50: My Sister Is a Good Person
Nangong Nianxi and Ming Haoxuan walked and came to a courtyard, and when they walked in, they were pleasing to the eye, it was a plum garden.
The color of plum blossoms varies, some are as bright as the morning glow, some are white as snow, and some are as green as jasper. Plum blossoms bloom in a variety of forms.
The plum blossom has a noble character, iron bones, it is not afraid of the cold, indomitable and unyielding. Nangong Nian loved its tenacious spirit in the past.
Smelling the fragrance of plum blossoms, Nangong Nianxi's displeasure just now was thrown out of the clouds.
Ming Haoxuan stood next to her, only Nangong Nianxi in his eyes, and his eyes were always around Nangong Nianxi. Nangong Nianxi was a little uncomfortable with his hot gaze.
So he said: "Lord! Why don't you look at plum blossoms and keep looking at what I do? ”
"My sister is more beautiful than flowers! In Xuan'er's eyes, there is nothing but her sister. ”
Nangong Nianxi's heart trembled slightly, this fool actually said something touching. When good things come, don't always think about resisting, have the courage to accept, in addition to the low mind, the rest is full of care and concern for himself.
There are some opportunities, if you miss them, you will not be there, you have to try to accept them with an open mind, so as not to regret it in the future, thinking of this mood is very relaxed.
So he replied: "Lord! The plum blossoms over there are better than here, shall we go over and take a look? After speaking, he took the initiative to reach out and hold the big hand that was one size bigger than himself, and walked to the depths of Merlin.
Ming Haoxuan was stunned for a moment, and after following Nangong Nianxi, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
A female voice came from not far ahead: "See, the coward in the Prime Minister's Mansion, not to mention being divorced by Duan Wangye, and moving into the Nine Kings' Mansion, a lonely man and a widow, and I am not ashamed, just now I saw her blatantly seducing Sima Zhongming, it is really shameless." ”
"That's it, I saw it just now, and others avoided it when they saw the son of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Officials, so she went to the front of others, it turned out that she deliberately seduced General Sima Xiao, which is really shameless."
"I couldn't seduce the little general, and I went to hug the thighs of the ninth prince again, which is really embarrassing for us women.
Ming Haoxuan was implicitly angry, broke free from Nangong Nianxi's little hand and said: "They are talking nonsense, Xuan'er went to tell them that my sister is not such a person." ”
Nangong Nianxi persuaded: "Lord Wang! They can say whatever they like, I don't care! Anyway, my reputation is already a household name, and I don't care about their nonsense. ”
Ming Hao Xuan said angrily: "Sister, they say bad things about you, Xuan'er is very angry!" ”
Nangong Nianxi persuaded: "Then what do you think of your sister in your heart?" ”
"My sister is a good person, not a vixen who seduces others."
"That's okay, my sister doesn't care what other people's attitudes are, it's good if you don't think so."
Ming Haoxuan nodded as if he didn't understand after listening.
After a few people finished talking, they changed the topic and talked about something else. Ming Haoxuan looked at Nangong Nianxi's smiling face and said, "Sister, you like plum blossoms so much, will Xuan'er also build a plum forest for her sister in the palace in the future?" ”
Nangong Nianxi looked at his serious attitude, no matter whether what he said now could be realized or not, it was touching to listen to it, so he nodded to him slightly.
The two played in Merlin for a while before going to the antechamber for a banquet. The large hall was already filled with two rows of dining tables, an empty circular space in the middle, and a separate table on the main seat. The daughters and sons of each family returned to the hall one after another.
Nangong Nianxi really didn't like this kind of banquet, and there was nothing new except to show his talents. The men and women sat separately, and Ming Haoxuan had to sit opposite Nangong Nianxi.
Nangong Nian was bored and saw all kinds of pastries on the table! Nangong Nianxi picked up a piece of plum blossom cake, smelled a plum blossom fragrance, ate it in his mouth, melted in his mouth, it was cold and cold, and the fragrance of plum blossoms, Nangong Nianxi slowly tasted it.
If the host doesn't arrive, he can't eat first. Nangong Nianxi didn't eat enough in the morning, and now he doesn't know what time it is, it's not good to come here, he doesn't have a watch, he can't know the time accurately, and he eats one piece after another.
Ming Ziling sat at the bottom of the main seat, next to Liu Qianqian, and then Nangong Nianxi, and on her right hand sat her second sister Nangong Qingrou.
Several people looked at her and gobbled up her with disdain. Nangong Qingrou looked at others laughing at her, and she felt uncomfortable with her face, after all, she lost the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
So he said angrily: "Nangong Nianxi, haven't you ever eaten plum blossom cake in your life?" Look at everyone else laughing at you, don't eat it, let others misunderstand that our Prime Minister's Mansion abuses you and doesn't give you food? After speaking, he took the handkerchief and slapped it on Nangong Nianxi's hand holding the pastry.
Nangong Nian dodged without a trace, frowned, and said in his heart: "This woman is really stupid, I don't know who was tricked to do this kind of thing that harms others and is not beneficial to herself." ”
Nangong Qingrou, seeing her dodging, raised her eyes and looked at her angrily and said, "Eldest sister! When you go out, you must also maintain the image of the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, although you are now living in the Nine Princes' Mansion, but you are still a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion, don't embarrass our Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
Nangong Nianxi put down the pastry, clapped his hands, wiped the residue on his mouth with a handkerchief, and said in a slow voice: "Second sister! In what capacity are you talking to me, you are my second sister, I am your eldest sister, when will your concubine take care of my daughter-in-law's affairs in the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
Nangong Qingrou heard this, her face turned white, no matter how big or small she was sitting today, she was the daughter of the concubine in the official's mansion, only she was a concubine, if it wasn't for the light of Duan Wangye, how could she be qualified to participate in such a banquet. The identity of this concubine is a big stone pressed on her, and she can't move it.
Looking at Ming Haoduan, he saw that he was chatting with the fourth prince in the lead, and he didn't pay attention to himself at all.
I was angry in my heart: "In the past, whether I opened my mouth or not, the prince would take the initiative to relieve himself, but since the little slut broke off the marriage contract, the prince was even more cold to himself, but he paid attention to the little slut, is it really that the man who has it at his fingertips will not cherish it, and what he can't get is always the best?" ”
It seemed that there was no hope for help, so I had to look apologetic, looked at Nangong Nianxi and said softly: "Sister! It's my mistake, you forgive me for being in a hurry, it's okay to keep my mouth open, I apologize to you. ”
After speaking, he picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine, holding the wine glass in his hand and said, "Sister! It was my fault just now, and if you drink this wine, you should forgive me, okay? ”
handed the wine glass to Nangong Nianxi, and looked at it with a blank eye, hoping that she would bring the wine over and drink it. Nangong Nianxi stared at Nangong Qingrou with shrewd eyes, as if he wanted to see her through.
Nangong Qingrou's hand holding the wine glass was numb, and she hated it bitterly in her heart: "If you don't take it yet, your hands are sore, do you see something?" No, it's foolproof. And so he increased his faith.
Nangong Nianxi watched the change in her micro-expression, and said without changing her face: "Second sister! You're in a hurry! I just said that the eldest sister has no rules, now you are anxious, General Sima was not present, how can we as juniors eat in private? This is a great disrespect to the owner, do you say? Second sister! ”
After hearing this, Nangong Qingrou's mood plummeted, seeing that the perfect opportunity was missed like this, she was unwilling but there was nothing she could do, and she blushed embarrassedly and said: "What the eldest sister said is that I was anxious to let the eldest sister forgive me, so I forgot the rules." With that, he reluctantly placed the wine glass on the table.
In private, the ladies of all families are talking about it, a concubine is a concubine, she doesn't understand this rule, and she still comes to such a banquet and teaches others a lesson......"
When Nangong Qingrou heard this, her face was apologetic, but the hands hidden in her sleeves were clenched tightly, and her nails were poked into her flesh: "Nangong Nianxi, you slut, let me lose such a big face in front of everyone, I will definitely get it back, you wait for today, you will never show off in front of me again." ”
Thinking of this, the facial features were all distorted together, and then immediately returned to their normal expressions, but they were relieved a lot. ”
Nangong Nianxi still maintained a faint smile, not affected at all by just now, eating the plum blossom cake slowly, but taking in Nangong Qingrou's vicious expression: "No matter what tricks you use, I, a new human in the twenty-first century, am still afraid that you will not be an ancient, see who can have the last laugh." ”
