Chapter 40: The Scheming of the Sister-in-law (1)
The doctor took the paper bag handed by the little guy next to Xia Chuanyuan, put it under his nose and smelled it, dipped it with his finger and tasted it, then put it down and replied: "Back to the words of the Prime Minister, this thing is the slag after the burning of the incense." ”
As soon as these words came out, Xia Mengyou, Ning and Xia Mengran were stunned, and Xia Mengyou stood up first and shouted: "What, do you see clearly, how can this be a soothing incense?" ”
The doctor hurriedly took a step back, and said to Xia Mengyou: "The old man has carefully examined it, this thing is indeed a soothing incense, and the powder is still in the form of cotton wool, which should be the residue left after burning last night." ”
Ning was completely dumbfounded, Xia Chuanyuan looked at Ning's appearance and said, "The matter has come to this, what else do you have to say?" ”
Ning Shi raised his head, and as soon as he came into contact with Xia Chuanyuan's eyes, he fell to the ground with a thud, and Xia Mengyou also knelt down, "Daddy, it must be the doctor who is lying, it's Xia Mengning, it must be her, she framed the eldest sister, and then found a way to frame the aunt, daddy, you have to be the master for your daughter and aunt." ”
Xia Chuanyuan shook his hand and looked at the person kneeling on the ground in disgust: "Framed? Who started the incident first, who said that there was something strange, and now that he has harmed himself instead of framing others, he has done his own wrong, and he can't live," paused, Xia Chuanyuan raised his eyebrows, "That's it, stay in your own room honestly in the future, don't come to me if you have nothing to do." ”
After speaking, he got up and left, Fang Clan thought that he could cure Xia Mengning again today, but he didn't expect that it would be such a situation in the end, and he was so angry at the moment that he fainted again.
Xia Mengning finished drinking the tea unhurriedly, and said to Zhulian behind her: "Let's go back too." ”
Zhu Lian stepped forward to help her, after some pranayama just now, most of the pain on her body had been healed, Xia Mengning stood up, and when she walked to Ning's side, she didn't forget to say softly: "Aunt Seventh is so scheming, I thought that I would get rid of me and please my mother, it was really 'two eagles with one stone', it's a pity," Xia Mengning stretched out her hand to support her hair bun, and then said: "These things were in my plan, originally the fifth sister said just now that she wanted me to help her, she spared me, I thought that the arrow that shot the eagle today was the fifth sister, How did you become Aunt Seven again? ”
Looking at Ning's face that turned white from green, Xia Mengning stood up, "Aunt Seventh knows that the world is impermanent, and if there is any little maid who bumps into you on the road in the future, and then inadvertently tells you any secrets, you still have to think more carefully, and only then can you decide whether you can use it for yourself." ”
After speaking, he took Zhulian's hand and left, Ning was stunned, and suddenly turned his head to look at Xia Mengran behind him and the maid Xiaolu beside her, only to realize that he was just a gunman for others, thinking of this, he couldn't help but be angry in his heart, and rushed up and slapped Xia Mengran to the ground.
"Little, you dare to frame me, I asked you to frame me, let you frame me......" scolded while kicking Xia Mengran with his foot.
Wei Shi hurriedly stepped forward to pull away Ning's, and the maids beside him also stepped forward to help Xia Mengran, Ning's was so angry that he couldn't do it, and scolded: "I'm going to tell the master that it was your girl who hurt me." Xia Mengran was slapped and kicked a few times for no reason, the pain in her body was unbearable, and she was helped by the maid to sit down on a chair on the side before she spoke: "Auntie is going to say it in front of Daddy, then go and say it, see if Daddy believes Auntie's words." ”
Ning said indignantly: "Shameless little hoof, if the master doesn't believe me, can he still believe you?" ”
Wei walked over to Dao Xia Mengran's side, looked at Ning and said, "Don't listen to slander, you deceive people too much." Ning's face was arrogant, with an expression of what can you endure me, Xia Mengyou persuaded on the side: "Auntie, let's go back first, you are angry, let's not stay with them here." ”
Ning thought about it, then patted Xia Mengyou's hand, "Let's go." ”
After the two left, Wei said to Xiao Lu on the side: "You retreat first." ”
Xiao Lu retreated in response, and Xia Mengran was about to stand up when he was slapped to the ground by Wei.
"Auntie......" Xia Mengran covered her face and looked at Wei in disbelief, "Why did you beat me?" ”
Wei Shi glanced at Xia Mengran, who was covering his face and crying, and finally sighed, his tone slowed down, "Do you know what big mistake you made today?" ”
Xia Mengran shed tears and nodded and said, "Ran'er knows her mistakes, Ran'er shouldn't listen to her aunt's words and provoke Xia Mengning, the gains outweigh the losses." ”
Wei Shi watched his daughter cry in front of him, and his heart couldn't help but be soft, in the end, it was his own daughter, it was the meat that fell from his body, thinking of this, he squatted down and helped Xia Mengran up, let her sit on the chair on the side, and said seriously: "Ran'er, first, you shouldn't tell Xia Mengning frankly about this matter, and second, you shouldn't be smart enough to provoke Ning, although Xia Mengning is young, but she is powerful the first few times, you also know, although Ning's heart is not deep, but she is also a difficult master, now, Not only did we not get benefits, but we also offended the villain of the Ning family, Xia Mengning also knew the existence and purpose of you and me, and in the future, I am afraid that it will not be so easy to do anything. ”
Xia Mengran wiped away her tears, looked at Wei and said, "Auntie, what should we do now, they are all proud, what should we do?" ”
Wei Shi blinked, took out Juan Pa and wiped Xia Mengran's tears carefully, and said slowly: "It's okay, we are still the same as before, only one, you can't act rashly, this time Xia Mengning designed first, if she does it again in the future, she will inevitably be caught by her, she is not a master to deal with, don't mess with her again." ”
When Xia Mengran heard this, her bright eyes faded in an instant, her fingers tightly grabbed the edge of her skirt, her knuckles turned white, and she used deep force.
Wei is a delicate master, she can see Xia Mengran's thoughts clearly at a glance, she remembered that she had been so reckless before, and what was the result in the end, she just lowered her face at the moment: "Ran'er, the delusion in your heart, it's better to send it away as soon as possible, that Dingxi Wang Shizi, not everyone can climb high." ”
Xia Mengran was angry in his heart, but because he had stayed by Wei's side for a long time, he had learned the art of forbearance, and he didn't easily show his heart in any major matter, but now when he heard Wei speak like this, he couldn't help but be annoyed, "Auntie, what do you mean by this, the prince of Dingxi is handsome and unique, but why can Xia Mengning climb it, I can't climb it, the same is the identity of the concubine, why do I have to be inferior everywhere, auntie, I was originally a concubine, do you want me to be inferior to her in front of Xia Mengning, What is the identity of that daughter? ”
Wei looked at Xia Mengran with an angry face, and couldn't help but think of his past, the eldest sister robbed her husband, and she married into the prime minister's mansion as a concubine in anger, and the day before the eldest sister got married, she secretly ran to her room and cut the belt of her wedding dress with scissors, making her ugly in public at her in-law's house.
But so what, it's not that I can't get married, but since my father favored the eldest sister and was bent on planning for the eldest sister's future, I swore that even if I married into a high-ranking family as a concubine, I would be a hundred times stronger than the eldest sister.
Ke Ran'er, she is her own daughter, she has taught her embroidery, cooking, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, so that she can receive a good education like a young lady, naturally I don't want her to follow in her footsteps, a woman's life, the most important thing is to find a good husband, even if she marries a poor family as a wife, it is much better than marrying a concubine to a high family.
Thinking of this, Wei couldn't help but hold Xia Mengran's shoulder and said softly: "Ran'er, what kind of life my aunt lives, you have known it since you were a child, are you willing to marry into the Shizi Mansion and continue to follow in your aunt's footsteps, no matter where you marry, your aunt only hopes that you can be the main room in a dignified manner, not like your aunt, be a nameless and worthless aunt, and even your own children will be treated harshly." ”
Xia Mengran looked at Wei with a sad face, although he was still indignant in his heart, he couldn't speak, so he had to pretend to understand and promised: "Ran'er knows, never again." ”
Wei nodded, helped her up and said: "You must remember, don't act rashly, my aunt's life is ruined, but my aunt will do her best to help you plan more dowry, so that you can live a more solid life in the future, you just listen to your aunt's words, I will always be your biological mother, and no one will harm you." ”
Xia Mengran nodded, the two walked out of the house, and Wei said to Xiao Lu, who was guarding outside: "Help Miss Wu to go back and rest." ”
Xiao Lu helped Xia Mengran, Wei glanced at it, and then turned to leave.
Xia Mengran touched her reddened cheeks, took Juanpa from her arms and covered her face, lowered her head and hurriedly walked to Xie Xiangyuan with Xiao Lu.
Back in the Xie Xiang Garden, Xia Mengran branched out of Xiao Lu and sat on the bed alone, although it was quiet, the long nails on his fingers were deeply embedded in his palms.
My aunt always has to endure it by herself, and now I know that I like the prince, but I still have to let myself give up, in the final analysis, I am afraid that if it doesn't go well when I go to fight for it, it will involve her and ruin her grand cause, Xia Mengran thought of this, and couldn't help but be even more angry, she was slapped in the face by the Ning family today, and she would never let go of the Ning family and the initiator Xia Mengning, this account, the aunt didn't help herself calculate, so she personally asked them to calculate it.
"Knock knock!"
The sudden knock on the door broke Xia Mengran's thoughts, and after a pause, Xia Mengran said, "Come in." ”
The maid Xiaolu pushed the door and walked in, saw Xia Mengran sitting on the bed, and hurriedly walked over and said, "Miss, the fifth aunt just asked Mother Wang to send a bottle of ointment, saying that it was for Miss to rub on the wound, which can remove blood stasis and activate blood, leave no scars, and recover faster." "Put it down."
Xia Mengran said lightly, "You go out first, I'm tired, I want to rest for a while." ”
Xiao Lu looked at it and said uneasily: "Miss, why don't you wipe it for you, your face ......"
"I'll say it!" Xia Mengran roared violently, bluffed Xiao Lu, who was talking, and nodded hurriedly: "The slave knows the mistake, Miss don't be angry, the slave will go out." ”
Xia Mengran picked up the small turquoise bottle on the side, and Xia Mengning looked proud in front of him again, one moment it was her aunt who persuaded herself to endure in front of her, and the other time it was Ning's arrogant look, Xia Mengran shook her head vigorously, and with a hard hand in her hand, she smashed the bottle to the ground.
"Liars, they are all liars...... Xia Mengran hugged her head and curled up on the bed, she remembered that she used to trust her aunt so much, but now, she knew that she liked the prince, but she still ignored it, and even persuaded herself to give up.
What is a wife and not a concubine, didn't she come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to be a concubine, her grandfather's family is the richest man in the capital, what kind of person is not there, she wants to be a wife, why didn't she do it back then, obviously for her own future, but she wanted to pretend to say something for her own sake.
Xia Mengran clenched her silver teeth, her hands clenched tightly, no matter what, she must marry the prince, if anyone dares to stand in front of her and block her path to glory and wealth, then she is an aunt, and she will never be soft!
