Chapter 107: The Gift of the Harvest

As soon as Duanyang passed, seeing that Rong Feng and Rong Lian's gift was only ten days away, although the house had prepared everything early, but as soon as the matter came, the house inevitably began to be extremely busy again.

Qi took the list of banquet guests to Mrs. Rong for personal inspection, and said how and how to arrange that day.

Old Madam Rong bowed slightly, half-closed her eyes and said: "The arrangement is excellent, that day the guests were full of orders to the people in the mansion not to rush into the guests, and taught people to see the jokes of our Hou Mansion." ”

Qi slowly closed the booklet in his hand and smiled softly: "There is one more thing, Aunt Wu and Grandma Wu are also a month pregnant, and Duanyang was almost injured by the firecrackers lit by the next person when she went to have a lively day. ”

As soon as she stopped talking, she heard Old Madam Rong say impatiently: "Let her take care of her in her own yard, so as not to stop all day long." ”

Qi didn't say much, and responded in a low voice.

"Fourth sister, it's really cool here, I can't sit still for the past two days, and I can't even sleep." Rong Han held a palace fan in his hand, and when he shook it gently, he felt the breeze blowing on his face, blowing away a trace of dryness in his heart.

Rong Feng asked people to move out the beauty couch in the room, and at the moment he was supporting his forehead with one hand, lying on his side leisurely, covered with a thin quilt.

"Your stay is specially asked for by Aunt Qi and Grandma for you, although the yard is not big, but it is warm in winter and cool in summer, if you think it is not good, I will change it with you. In the end, it's still your own heart. ”

Rong Han smiled first, then his eyes darkened for a moment, and he shook the hand of the palace fan: "How can I not have something on my mind." Duanyang also lost the luck of our sisters that day, otherwise it would be better to die headfirst than to fall into that kind of pickled place as someone wished. ”

Rong Feng slowly opened his eyes, and there was a hint of autumn frost in his dark jade-like eyes: "You can only hold this in your heart, and you can't say it to anyone." ”

Rong Han gritted his teeth and said resentfully: "My aunt also said the same thing to me. Isn't she just calculating that even if things don't work out, she doesn't dare to tell her grandmother about it easily, but when the time comes, our grandmother will still suffer from the reputation of the Baohou Mansion, and we will be full of humiliation and grievances! ”

Her eyes were horizontal, she really hated Rong Lian's viciousness, she would really do such a thing, and then remembered that she drugged Aunt Wu's grandmother, and paused again: "Fourth sister probably doesn't know that Aunt Wu was almost injured by the explosion that day, and she secretly asked someone to do it, and my aunt sent someone to see that the explosion was mixed with many stones." ”

Rong Feng's eyebrows moved slightly, and he looked at Rong Han carefully and motioned for her to continue.

Rong Han: "The explosion sent to the house is all old craftsmen, I am afraid that something will go wrong and hurt the master, now Aunt Wu is almost six months pregnant, if something really happens, it will really be a corpse and two lives, then the house will be in chaos, we will have something outside the house again, even if the girl comes back to report, I don't know if there will be a delay." ”

There was a hint of ridicule at the corner of Rong Feng's mouth: "But in the end, she is also unlucky, and she has calculated so much, but she has not succeeded in anything." ”

When Rong Han heard this, he was also a little relieved in his heart, and straightened up slightly: "Now she is busy preparing for her marriage, and she has not heard the news of embroidering the dowry all day long." ”

"At the beginning, Yuan Yijun set five sisters and Qian girl for General Shen Shao, one as a wife and one as a concubine. It stands to reason that the wife should go to the mansion to show her attention, but two days ago, a sedan chair entered the Shen Mansion as soon as it was dark, and I didn't know how to be lively at that time. ”

Rong Han snorted and chuckled, and a gloomy color swept across her face under the palace fan.

Rong Feng lowered her long eyelashes, her eyes were slightly raised, and she understood in an instant that Mrs. Shen's illness was not very good, although she didn't look down on her niece's low family, but what she wanted most was for her to become Shen Shao's wife, so that she could firmly hold the status of her Shen Mansion.

Once Mrs. Shen dies of illness, Qian Ruyan's days in the Shen Mansion will only become more and more tormented, it is better to let her enter the mansion in advance, if she can conceive Shen Shao's eldest son earlier than Rong Lian, one eldest son is enough for Qian Ruyan to protect herself.

But who knew that there would be a biggest accident in the meantime.

On May 26th, the two sisters of Ronghou Mansion came out of the girl and the concubine, and the people of Manqingzhou were eager to come and join in the fun, they didn't understand the Yin Si, they only knew that the two twin girls from the stepwife of Ronghou Mansion were beautiful and virtuous, and it was also a blessing to be cultivated in eight lifetimes.

When Pei Ce opened the mansion, he led more than a dozen carriages to park outside the mansion, all of which were gifts from the ancestors of the Pei family in Puzhou and several uncles and mothers, and the Hou Mansion was busy vacating a warehouse to place these things.

The lady of the official family, who originally felt that her eyes were red and sour, couldn't help but say a few words of gossip, although the two girls were from the concubine, they were also from the merchant women, and they were not as good as the concubines of the serious Hou Mansion.

But now that I look at it, those who are really red-eyed have their brains congested, their teeth are sore, and they can't say a word.

A carriage stopped outside the mansion, and the people of the Hou Mansion hurriedly stepped forward to greet the guests with a smile, this is the carriage of the Shen Mansion, the future fifth aunt of their mansion, as soon as the door opened, the subordinate was clever and flattered Shen Shaoqi A few words, and was about to let the carriage go elsewhere, but he saw a white jade flawless hand poking out, and combing the woman's hair.

Qian Ruyan was already thin, her cheeks were so thin that her cheekbones were particularly prominent, she used to be high and self-controlled, but now she seems to be a little mean, her eyebrows and eyes are slightly frowning and seem to be sad, in this festive scene is really out of place.

She slowly got out of the carriage, looked at the Pei family's gifts and sent them to the mansion in an endless stream, and snorted coldly: "Sure enough, only merchants like the Pei family can make it, they are rich and generous." ”

The faces of the Hou Mansion were a little bad, and they smiled and said: "The slave thinks that the temperament and anything are not important, it is rare that the old lady Pei's family has a sincere friendship with our two girls." ”

Shen Shaoqi's eyes were cold: "I promised to bring you here today, but I didn't want you to come for no reason, if you can't speak, take the carriage back to me now." ”

Qian Ruyan's eyes widened for a moment, and she looked at Shen Shaoqi in disbelief, her pale cheeks turned red for a moment, but she had to bow her head to show weakness and follow behind Shen Shaoqi and stop talking.

Seeing the two leaving, the subordinate beckoned to the people on the side: "Go and tell the old lady that General Shen brought Aunt Qian from the house to congratulate the two girls." ”

After saying that, he snorted again when no one was around.

Rong Lian has been replenishing water for several days with decoction, which can be regarded as making up for the previous complexion, without seeing the sickness and haggard color, the eyes are full of spring and timidity, and the lotus flowers between the clothes are real, to really respond to the word "ripple", together with people such as the lotus in the pond, but it is not as muddy as it is.

On the other hand, Rong Feng is a little simpler today, only a delicate and delicate bag tied around his waist is not half a palm, and there is still some decoration, and the two carps are about to leave, and in his eyes, there is a jade ornament under the sachet that is exactly the same as the brocade belt she gave to someone in the past.

"The fourth sister is too plain today." Rong Lian lightly swept Moth's eyebrows slightly.

Rong Feng sneered: "It's not as good as the fifth sister who has been sick for a few days, so she wants to surround herself with a pearl hairpin to add a little more color." ”

"Yes, the fifth sister is going to compete for beauty today, but don't pull the fourth sister, I think the fourth sister is the best today, and she is outstanding." A burst of delicate female voices came from far and near, Rong Han was dressed very elegantly today, and she would not drown out the crowd if she was not in the limelight.

Rong Lian's eyes moved, and he glanced at Rong Han: "The sixth sister is really good at talking, it's not easy to be alone, and it can't be jealous." ”

Rong Han blinked and said with a smile: "Fifth sister, I'm afraid I don't know yet, Young General Shen brought Aunt Qian and Grandma to congratulate you, and you will be sisters in the future." ”

Rong Lian's face changed in an instant, and there was a faint color of iron blue: "Aunt Qian? ”

Rong Feng stretched out his hand and touched the edge of the teacup in front of him, shaking a circle: "The fifth sister has been busy embroidering the dowry these days, but she didn't know that Qian Ruyan had been carried into the Shen Mansion, I heard that Mrs. Shen also gave the identity of the concubine, and she came to congratulate her today, and the fifth sister is really a blessing." ”

Rong Lian clutched the handkerchief in his hand, biting his lower lip tightly, and the lip color that had been rouge seemed to be dyed with blood: "That sister really has to take a good look." ”

In the hall, after Shen Shaoqi met Mrs. Rong, he went to the male guest, Qian Ruyan sat alone below, and the eyes of the stabs around him were unheard, calm and composed, and his eyebrows were tightly locked, as if there was some bitterness and hatred.

I saw the three girls of Rong Feng walking in, and Mrs. Rong pulled them to talk and laugh at the guests below, which made Qian Ruyan feel extremely dazzling.

Unconsciously leaned up, and bowed to Rong Lianyingying: "My sister has seen my sister." ”

Rong Lian's expression was stunned, and the softness on his face became more and more soft and fake: "Are you?" ”

Qian Ruyan's eyebrows frowned, the sorrow in her eyes deepened, and she stared at Rong Lian with resentment: "My sister is a strange husband who welcomed me into the house before my sister." ”

Rong Han was speechless, she never expected that this Qian Ruyan was a woman who played straight balls, but she was still continuing.

"My husband will explain to me every day, and when my sister enters the house, I must be respectful and polite, don't make my sister angry, this time I came to celebrate my sister, I don't have any good things, but my husband left my sister a set of pure gold noodles and gave it to my sister, and my sister will not dislike my sister."

After saying this, the smile on Rong Lian's face almost froze, staring at Qian Ruyan and wanting to eat him alive, as if he had been slapped his face, and it hurt hotly.

Although the ladies in the house were talking separately, they all eavesdropped, only to feel that Mrs. Rong's face was really dull, and she didn't know what Mrs. Shen meant.
