Shangguan Ning looked at the colorful masks hanging on the stall with blank eyes, but shook his head with An Jinxiu.

An Jinxiu took out a few copper plates and said to An Yuanzhi, who was sitting outside the carriage, "Yuanzhi, Ning'er likes masks, you take her to choose one." ”

Shangguan Ning wanted to shake his head and say that he didn't want to, but he was already carried out by An Yuanzhi.

"Money," An Jinxiu wanted to give money to An Yuanzhi.

An Yuanzhi shook his hand and said, "Sister, I still have the money to buy a mask." ”

"What does Uncle want?" An Jinxiu turned her head and asked Shangguan Rui, who had been sitting quietly on the side.

Shangguan Rui smiled, "Sister-in-law, I'm not a child anymore." ”

An Jinxiu looked at Shangguan Rui, "Uncle also has to add some clothes, I'll do it when I go back." ”

"No," Shangguan Rui hurriedly said to An Jinxiu, but saw that An Jinxiu had already looked out the car window, and was still muttering about what kind of fabric he wanted to buy for his family. Shangguan Rui quieted down again, their family has never been complete, now the eldest brother is like a father, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, with the entry of this little sister-in-law, their Shangguan family seems to be finally complete.

When An Jinxiu and the four of them returned home, An Jinxiu hadn't gotten out of the carriage yet, when he saw An Yuanzhi outside and said, "Why are you here?" ”

Listening to An Yuanzhi's unkind tone, An Jinxiu hurriedly got out of the car, and saw the two mothers-in-law in charge of An Mansion standing opposite An Yuanzhi, with a respectful look on their faces, and impatience in their eyes.

Shangguan Ning wanted to follow An Jinxiu out of the car, but was stopped by Shangguan Rui, and the two brothers and sisters sat in the car and listened to the movement outside.

"Second aunt and grandmother," the housekeeper saw An Jinxiu get out of the car, so she saluted An Jinxiu and said, "The slaves and maids are here to pick up the second aunt and grandmother back to the door." ”

An Yuanzhi said, "My brother-in-law went to Baiyuguan, don't you know? ”

The mother-in-law in charge said, "The old lady also knows that the second aunt is on the march, but the rules passed down by the elders cannot be abolished, and the second aunt and grandmother still have to go back." ”

There is no rule for returning to the door to marry the children of the court, and after An Jinxiu married from Anfu, she didn't think about going back. Now seeing that these two housekeepers said that they meant the old lady, An Jinxiu would not think that this was the dignity given to her by the old lady of Anfu, and Anfu didn't know what was waiting for her today.

"You want my sister to come back alone?" An Yuanzhi said at this time: "If you want to go back, you have to wait for my brother-in-law to come back, right?" ”

The mother-in-law in charge glanced at each other, she was really impatient with the fifth young master in the house, and it was already a grace for the old lady to let them come to pick up the second lady back to the door, the two sisters and brothers were not only grateful, but also choked with them loudly, and the other looked reluctant.

An Jinxiu looked at the neighbors who were probing their brains here, and rushed to the purple duck standing in front of the gate and said, "Purple duck, take the young lady home." ”

After listening to An Jinxiu's words, Zi Yuan ran to the carriage and hugged Shangguan Ning out of the car.

Shangguan Rui listened to the conversations between the An's sisters and brothers and the mothers-in-law of Anfu in the car, Shangguan Yong did not tell Shangguan Rui about An Jinxiu at home, but Shangguan Rui relied on these few conversations to determine that his sister-in-law and brother did not have a high status in Anfu. After Shangguan Rui got out of the carriage, he asked An Jinxiu, "Sister-in-law, do you want to go back?" ”

"The elders have something to say, I can't help but listen to it," An Jinxiu smiled apologetically at Guan Rui and said, "I'll cook you summer soup when I come back." ”

"If you don't go back, can those people at home still force you?" An Yuanzhi said dissatisfied.

"Don't say it," An Jinxiu asked An Yuanzhi not to speak anymore, and asked Shangguan Rui to go home first.

Shangguan Rui had the intention to accompany An Jinxiu back to Anfu, but there was no sister-in-law in this world to return to the door, and the uncle would accompany him, so Shangguan Rui had to say to An Jinxiu, "Then my little sister and I are waiting for my sister-in-law to come back at home." ”

"Hey," An Jinxiu promised Shangguan Rui that he was leaving.

Zi Yuan hugged Shangguan Ning and saw that An Jinxiu was leaving, so he hurriedly asked, "Miss, do you want me to accompany you back?" ”

Zi Yuan's worry was written on her face, and An Jinxiu patted Zi Yuan's hand comfortingly, "You watch the door at home and take a good lady." ”

An Yuanzhi said to the mother-in-law in charge at this time: "You came to pick up my sister and didn't bring a car?" Do you want us to go back to the house? ”

The mother-in-law in charge said, "It's the slaves' fault, I thought that the second aunt had a car at home, so I didn't bring a sedan car." ”

An Jinxiu stopped An Yuanzhi, who was angry, and said in a voice that couldn't be heard happily and angrily, "It's okay, don't I rent a carriage here, just take this car back to the door." ”

The coachman has a business to do, and of course he will not refuse.

An Yuanzhi endured his anger and got on his horse.

After An Jinxiu and his party walked away, the purple mandarin standing in the door said to Shangguan Rui, who was still standing, "Second young master, go back to the house, the sun is too big outside." ”

Shangguan Rui glanced at the purple mandarin duck, turned around and walked towards the hall.

Zi Yuan was furious when Shangguan Rui saw it at a glance, a thirteen-year-old boy as old as the fifth young master, and still a scholar who was reading, this look was powerful, as if he could see through anything.

An Yuanzhi rode in front of the carriage where An Jinxiu was sitting, and when the group arrived at Anfu, they found that a lot of vehicles had been parked in front of Anfu, and there were many servants in palace costumes. ”

The janitor whispered back to An Yuanzhi's words: "Fifth young master, the crown princess has returned to the house today to visit relatives. ”

Damn it! An Yuanzhi's heart burst into a foul mouth, this woman is here, why do you want An Jinxiu to come back?

An Jinxiu got out of the car, looked at the carriage and horse servants in front of the door with a flat gaze, and then paid the coachman and let the coachman go first.

The mother-in-law in charge saw that An Jinxiu had paid the money, so she came up and said to An Jinxiu, "Second aunt and grandmother, let's go into the house." ”

An Jinxiu walked into An's Mansion and asked An Yuanzhi to see Aunt Xiu, and she followed the housekeeper into an ear room in the old lady's courtyard and waited.

After the mother-in-law in charge led An Jinxiu into the ear room, she went out. An Jinxiu sat in front of the half-open window in the ear room, and waited for three hours, and no one came into the room to say a word to her.

In the old lady's room, the crown princess An Jinyan talked about An Jinqu in front of the old lady and the Qin family. No matter how delicate An Jinqu is, in front of the eldest sister An Jinyan, he didn't dare to contradict a word, and only lowered his head to be trained.

Qin sat at the bottom of the old lady with low eyebrows, if An Jinyan hadn't come back today, she wouldn't have been able to get out of her courtyard gate, and she was thrown by the old lady from time to time, and her knife-like eyes made her heart startled.

An Jinyan didn't say a good word for his own mother, and after training An Jinqu and using a cup of tea, he asked, "How long have you been waiting?" ”

The old lady said, "It's been three hours." ”

An Jinyan called the mother-in-law in charge of the house again and asked, "What is the second aunt and grandmother doing?" ”

The mother-in-law in charge said, "Back to the words of the princess, the second aunt and grandmother sat in the ear room and dozed off. ”

An Jinyan glanced at the Qin family quickly, it seems that this An Jinxiu is different, if it was placed in the past, knowing that she was there, this concubine's sister didn't come to ask to see her, but now she just waited and slept while waiting?

"Why did she come back?" An Jinqu didn't know about An Jinxiu's return, so he rolled his eyelids and said, "She's really cheeky, the eldest sister doesn't want to see her, and she still came here shyly." ”

An Jinyan first said to the mother-in-law in charge, "Go and invite the second aunt and grandmother to come in," and then said to the old lady, "I taught her for a long time in vain." Old lady, in my opinion, it is a good thing that she can't be the eldest daughter-in-law of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is a shame for her to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion like this! ”

"Eldest sister," An Jinqu saw that An Jinyan was going to discipline her again, and immediately begged for mercy and shouted to An Jinyan.

"You've been so ignorant, what should you do in the future?" An Jinyan said, "No matter what kind of family you marry into in the future, men are three wives and four concubines, you must always have children, you can't tolerate your second sister, who can you tolerate in the future?" ”

Speaking of An Jinxiu, An Jinqu would not bow his head and admit his mistakes, and replied to An Jinyan without raising his eyelids, "I just can't get used to her slave appearance." ”

An Jinyan was about to train herself a few more words as an unsuccessful girl, when she raised her eyes and saw An Jinxiu standing in front of the door, she was busy changing her smiling face, beckoning to An Jinxiu, and said, "Jinxiu is here, come in quickly." ”

When An Jinqu saw An Jinxiu enter the house, she was not afraid that An Jinxiu would hear what she had just said, so she snorted heavily at An Jinxiu and sat next to Qin.

An Jinxiu didn't see An Jinqu, and saluted An Jinyan without any difference.

An Jinyan smiled and said, "You get up, we are our own sisters, where do we pay attention to these false courtesies?" ”

After An Jinxiu got up, she looked at An Jinyan and smiled. The crown princess of the dynasty has been a beauty since she was a child, and now she is even more extravagant, as if she is already the mother of the country. In the previous life, the prince failed to seize the heir, An Jinyan was given to death by Bai Chengze with a cup of poisoned wine, does this sister have the life to be the queen in this life? Even if Bai Chengze doesn't have An Jinxiu by his side, the five princes will still go to grab the dragon chair, will the prince be the opponent of the five princes Bai Chengze?

An Jinyan looked at the smile on An Jinxiu's face but was not very comfortable, this kind of light and clear smile should not appear on An Jinxiu's face. In An Jinyan's mind, An Jinxiu has always been a fool who can't see his identity clearly and blindly competes, and a fool should struggle hopelessly to death all his life.

An Jinxiu waited for An Jinyan for a while, and seeing that An Jinyan didn't speak, she saluted the old lady and the Qin family again.

The old lady opened his mouth and said, "The second aunt has gone on the expedition, you have to live well at home, grandmother, no matter what you still have in your heart, but since ancient times, women have been marrying chickens and dogs, and you must abide by the women's way." You are a concubine, but you are a wife when you go to Shangguan's house, and you must behave properly! ”

An Jinxiu replied yes.

Qin sighed and said, "Jinxiu is a low marriage, and I am still sad when I think of this marriage now." ”

As soon as the old lady wanted to shut up the Qin family, he heard An Jinyan say, "General Shangguan, I will tell the prince when I go back, my own sister, how can I watch Jinxiu suffer and not pull a hand?" ”

After listening to An Jinyan's words, An Jinxiu hadn't reacted yet, and the Qin family had already said with surprise and joy, "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is willing to promote the second aunt, it would be a great thing, Jinxiu, you have great blessings again." ”

An Jinxiu's heart moved, the prince's power in the army has not been strong, An Jinyan is trying to win over the power in the army for the prince? Thinking about it again, An Jinxiu didn't feel like it, Shangguan Yong was just a military attache from the fifth rank at this time, and he had no value to win over, An Jinyan was afraid that he was just casually giving grace when he said this. "Eldest sister, I'm doing well now," An Jinxiu said to An Jinyan, "Jinxiu thank you eldest sister." ”

An Jinqu said on the side, "Second sister, you still have to think more about the words of the old lady, remember to guard the woman's way." ”

An Jinxiu pursed her lips and smiled, and did not answer An Jinqu's words. What the old lady said was not good, but she thought about it for her good, and didn't want her to do something sorry for Shangguan Yong, she didn't need to hold a grudge for a word, and her grandmother who was in power in Anfu again.

"It's not early," An Jinyan suddenly felt bored, got up and said, "Taijun, mother, I'm going back." ”

Lao Taijun, Qin's family, and An Jinqu all got up to send it.

"Taijun rest, Jinqu will go back to the room and learn etiquette with the teaching mother I brought today, and my mother will send me," An Jinyan said.

When the crown princess spoke, the people in the house naturally did the same.

After only the old lady and An Jinxiu were left in the house, the old lady said to An Jinxiu, "You have to remember my words, people have to accept their fate!" ”

An Jinxiu said, "Taijun, Jinxiu will live with my general Ansheng, what does not belong to Jinxiu, Jinxiu will not want it, Jinxiu knows that he can't afford it." ”

The old lady sneered, she didn't believe An Jinxiu's words, "You didn't rush to send the princess to the princess, it means that you know a little bit of etiquette now, go and see Aunt Xiu, there will be nothing to do in the future, and you don't have to come to the house again." ”

An Jinxiu didn't say a word, and when she got out of the old lady's house, she went straight to the small courtyard where Aunt Xiu lived.

An Jinyan walked on the way out of the mansion and whispered to the Qin family, "Mother is right, Jinxiu is not the same as before. ”

Qin hated and said, "If it weren't for this little hoof's bad thing, Jinqu's marriage would have been decided." ”

An Jinyan glanced back at the servants, and the servants who followed An Jinyan and the Qin family hurriedly retreated, freeing up a distance for the mother and daughter to speak alone.

"I fancy the matter of the son-in-law of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the mother doesn't tell her daughter in advance," An Jinyan said to the Qin family, "Father is also optimistic about this family business?" ”

Qin said, "Isn't it good to marry the Prime Minister? ”

"Zhou Xiaozhong is the prince's person, whether this family business is knotted or not, there is no gain or loss for the prince."

Qin hurriedly said, "This, this mother didn't expect it, your father said that it was good to form a family with Zhou Xiang, so my mother arranged it." ”

An Jinyan smiled, "Father loves his two little daughters, I know this." ”

"Niangniang," the Qin family was a little flustered, listening to An Jinyan's meaning, was it that they were not good for her daughter? The An family is not loyal enough to the crown prince?

An Jinyan looked at the flowery summer scenery in Anfu, but her heart was cold, the crown princess listened to the dignity, who could know the bitterness in her heart? "I want to see my father," they were about to walk to the front of the mansion, but An Jinyan still decided to see Master An.

"Is that good?" Qin's family, their daughters are nothing, it's just that An Taishi and An Jinyan are father and daughter and monarchs, and they can't meet without a purpose, if the father and daughter meet at home, the matter will spread out, and it will be a trivial matter to make gossip, what if there is any more turmoil?

"Today is the day when Jinxiu returns to the door, and it is normal for me to accompany my sister to see my father," An Jinyan had already come up with an excuse after a moment's work, "Father is in the study?" ”

Seeing that An Jinyan had already gone to An Taishi's study, Qin Shi couldn't persuade him again, so he had to say loudly to An Jinyan, "Niangniang, are you still worried about your second sister?" She just won't be able to speak again, and the Taishi won't say anything heavy about her. ”
