Chapter 145: The Concubine

In the backyard of Fangfu, the upper room of the main courtyard is decorated with all kinds of pink or red sprout azaleas, Fang Renxin is wearing a gold silk embroidered water red silk jacket, which is a smoke skirt of the same color, standing in front of a half-person high flower stand, absentmindedly admiring a pot of half-open red and bright precious azaleas, and listening to the joyful conversation of everyone in the house with his ears.

"Ancestor, look at it, hehe, Renxin really likes your flowers here."

Wang, the wife of Fang Jiayan of Tobu Lang, was full of smiles, raised her eyebrows slightly, looked meaningfully at Fang Renxin, who was "admiring" the azaleas, and said to Sun with something in her words.

The happy conversation of everyone in the room instantly quieted down, and they all turned their heads or turned to look at Fang Renxin who was standing next to the flower stand.

A trace of excitement flashed in Fang Renxin's eyes, and he quickly lowered his eyes to hide the past, curtled his knees at Wang, and said with a smile: "It's still my mother who knows me best, and my daughter really likes this cuckoo." I heard that this azalea is a species that only exists in the south of the Yangtze River and further south, and it used to be impossible to grow in our north at all, if it weren't for the clever trick that Mrs. Hou of Jian'an Hou Mansion came up with, maybe, now my daughter has not had this blessing, and she can appreciate the beauty of this azalea with her own eyes. ”

Wang's face fell, this concubine has to go against herself every time! If it weren't for his sister-in-law Fang Rensong who said that a lot yesterday, why would he be here to accompany her to act!

Fangfu's ancestor Sun, who is also Liu Yunyun's maternal grandmother, naturally heard the meaning of the words between the mother-in-law and the concubine at this time, quietly glanced at everyone, looked at the azaleas on the flower stand with a smile, and said: "No, if you want to say that this talented girl in Jinjing City, Mrs. Jian'an Hou is also an outstanding, before she left the cabinet, she was a famous little talented girl in Zhongyongbo's mansion, and she liked to serve some flowers and plants the most. The glass flower room that I fiddled with. ”

Fang Renxin's eyelids moved slightly, with a shy smile, he walked up to Sun's side, half-knelt and took the small hammer to gently beat Sun's leg, looked up with a little face, and asked with an innocent smile: "Ancestor, I heard that Mrs. Jian'an Hou is going to hold a flower-viewing banquet in the Hou Mansion, and I have invited the three cousins of the Liu family to go with me...... The ancestors and granddaughters also want to go and see. ”

Sun pretended to be surprised, turned his head to look at Wang, and Wang took the tea and drank it, pretending not to see it.

Alas......

Sun's dissatisfaction with this daughter-in-law has deepened again, so ignorant of the general situation, and thanks to the fact that she is still the daughter of the Ministry of Works, this concubine is a concubine, it is really short-sighted, and she can't be on the stage at all.

"If you want to go and see, tell your mother that the ancestors are old and don't understand what you are doing now, alas...... is young, it's good, today is this flower banquet, tomorrow is the ...... of that poetry club" After speaking, there was still a trace of yearning in his eyes, and he shook his head self-deprecatingly, looked down at Fang Renxin, who was beating his legs, and said: "If you want to go, tell your mother, and let your mother arrange it for you." ”

Sun's pretending to be old and confused is definitely at the level of an old drama bone.

Fang Renshan sat next to her mother Li, and when she saw that the Wang family had a nodding meaning, she couldn't help it, and answered with an unswerving face: "The ancestor is confused, isn't he?" Mrs. Jian'anhou personally assigned the grandmother around her to go to Liu's house to send an invitation to her cousins, our house, and we didn't receive an invitation from Jian'anhou's mansion, how can we let Sister Renxin go? If you go, won't you let the family say that our Fang Mansion has no rules? ”

The Li family couldn't stop Fang Renshan just now, so he quickly stood up at this time, made a benefit to the Sun family, and said apologetically: "The old ancestor is more forgiving, Renshan is spoiled by me, and she speaks unscrupulously, and the daughter-in-law is here to apologize to you." ”

Sun waved his hand indifferently, ordered a chair for her to sit down, and said with a smile: "Renshan is also something I have seen since I was a child, I don't know her temper yet, look at you, it's just too regular, my granddaughter has to say something to me, you have to be so careful, what is not apologetic, I don't have to restrain my precious granddaughter to me, it's not fun." After speaking, he still pouted, looking like an old child.

"Ancestor, I know that you love me the most." Fang Renshan rubbed coquettishly to Sun's side, tilted her head on her shoulder, held her arm and shook it with a smile and said coquettishly.

Fang Renxin, who was kneeling on the pedal to beat Sun's legs, kept his head down, his eyes full of resentment.

Why?! Why can the concubine of the Liu family go to Jian'an Hou Mansion, and the Fang family is much more noble than the Liu family, why can't she go?!

"Okay, my good granddaughter, don't hammer, it's not that you're tired, and the ancestor is going to feel distressed again." Sun pulled Fang Renxin up, looked at her with a kind face, and secretly looked at her expression.

This granddaughter is too strong, the identity of the concubine, such a lofty character, will ...... in the future

Sun has a headache when he thinks about it, although his daughter's family is not as good as a man, but if her temperament is too extreme, it is easy to cause trouble for the family in the end.

Sun felt that if a person wanted to grow, she had to hit the south wall and see the coffin, so that her temperament could be sharpened.

"Renshan, didn't you receive an invitation, just take Renxin with you, it's okay to go and have a look." Sun is considered an "old drama bone" who has been on the battlefield for a long time, how can these juniors guess her thoughts, Fang Renshan heard her say this, raised her eyes and looked at Sun seriously, Sun smiled at her, Fang Renshan had to reluctantly agree.

Although Fang Renshan's mother Li is also a concubine, her father Li Jinsong, a scholar of Dongge University, is polite and polite, with extremely high knowledge and cultivation, and in terms of educating children, he is very methodical, Li is very well educated by him, plus Fang Renshan's father, Fang Jiashen, the prince of the country, is very affectionate with Li, there are no concubines in the room, and there are no children from the concubines, so Fang Renshan and her brother Fang Renhe are very sensible and intelligent children.

Fang Renxin's eyes lit up when he heard Sun say this, and he looked at Fang Renshan with a disdainful and provocative excited light.

What Fang Renshan hates the most is her complacent look, a feeling of being a little family defeated.

"Okay, I'll take you tomorrow." Fang Renshan wanted to give her a blank look, but where were the rules, and it was in front of the ancestors, so she said very reluctantly.

Wang breathed a sigh of relief, she just didn't understand why her son was so concerned about this sister-in-law? Last night, I grinded myself all night, and I was low-voiced and reasonable, begging myself to agree to Fang Renxin's request to go to the Jian'an Hou Mansion......

"Mother, father is only a household now, look at the second room...... The second uncle is already the country's chief priest wine, and now the second highness is in charge of the household department...... Think about it, who doesn't know that the prince of Jian'an has a deep friendship with His Royal Highness? We don't have a daughter in the big house, mother, don't be angry, even if you don't have a daughter, don't you still have me? Don't worry, listen to me, think about it, our big house, there is only Renxin a little lady, no matter what, she has to call you a mother, why don't you pay more attention to her? Aunt Zhao is your maid, and she is obedient to you, Renxin respects you even more, you have to think about me, for my father, and for the overall situation......"

……

Liu Yunyun's carriage didn't travel for a while, and arrived at the main gate of the Jian'an Hou Mansion, because they were all female dependents, the housekeeper of the Jian'an Hou Mansion led the car to drive for a while, entered the Hou Mansion from the side door, and drove inside along the wide and smooth road.

After walking for about another cup of tea, the car paused and stopped.

"Miss Liu Er, it's here."

Huanhuan lifted the curtain of the car, with a decent signature smirk, and said to the grandmother who was standing respectfully outside the car: "Thank you grandma." ”

Liu Yunyun helped Huanhuan's men get out of the car, and watched Liu Tingting and Liu Rongrong get out of the car, the lady in charge stepped forward to salute, and said with a smile: "This is the second gate of the Hou Mansion, our lady is afraid that the ladies will be tired, so the slaves and maids arranged a sedan chair, and after a while, the ladies will go in the sedan chair." ”

"Thank you, ma'am, I can't thank you." Liu Yunyun smiled and thanked her, she had already seen that three small and delicate golden bamboo sedan chairs had been neatly parked next to the car, and there was a mother-in-law wearing the unified "uniform" of the Hou Mansion in front of and behind each sedan chair.

A mother-in-law next to the sedan chair stepped forward and saluted, respectfully welcoming Liu Yunyun and others into the sedan chair.

"Yunyun!" A cry of excitement came.

Liu Yunyun just lowered her head and was about to drill into the sedan chair, when she heard the cry, she raised her head again, and saw He Yuan sitting in the carriage, lifting the curtain and waving excitedly to herself.

He Yuan held the girl's hand and got out of the carriage excitedly, the housekeeper Mama stepped forward to salute He Yuan, He Yuan waved his hand indifferently, "Mama, you don't have to be polite to me, you hurry up and get busy, Yunyun They are my cousins, I'll take them with me." ”

"Then it's troublesome Miss He." The housekeeper smiled and bent her knees, then retreated, and went to the door to continue greeting people.

He Yuan happily hugged Liu Rongrong, "Oh, my Rongrong is really getting more and more beautiful." ”

Liu Rongrong's temperament was already restrained, which was made by He Yuanyi, and she also laughed, her face was flushed, how cute and how cute, "Cousin He." Liu Rongrong was held and couldn't salute, so she had to greet her in He Yuan's arms.

He Yuan laughed, turned to look at Liu Tingting and Liu Yunyun, and pretended to be serious: "Why did you two educate my Rongrong so rigidly?" Like an antique? ”

Liu Tingting said with a smile: "Where are we educated?" That's what she is. ”

Liu Yunyun nodded, "Cousin, I told you, it's really none of my business." After speaking, he spread his hands.

He Yuan is a living treasure everywhere, and he is a pistachio that relaxes the atmosphere.

When Liu Yunyun saw her, she was not as restrained as she was at the beginning, Liu Tingting was already atmospheric, she would not lose her aura anywhere, Liu Yunyun felt that she still needed to work hard to become a celebrity in the upper class.

As soon as He Yuan wanted to beckon his mother-in-law to carry the sedan chair, he saw that the carriage of the Fang Mansion had also arrived.

"Renshan is here too." He Yuan said excitedly.

"Why is she here too? Who invited her? After a while, seeing the woman getting out of another carriage, He Yuan stretched his face.
