Li Shi hurriedly laughed; "The princess has won the award, I am a girl, I have been in charge of her since I was a child. Although he is not as proficient in poetry as Shan, he is good at settling accounts, being a female celebrity, and running a family. ”

Yun lowered his eyelids and couldn't see his thoughts, but when he looked at the old lady's perspective, he found that her beautiful red lips were slightly pursed.

Princess Yujun smiled gently, "Madame is so well-intentioned, I believe that the third girl will be able to marry a good in-law in the future." ”

Li Shi smiled, "Hehe, but all the women in the boudoir, which one doesn't learn this?" Otherwise, if you marry into your mother-in-law's family, how can you help your husband's family take care of the housework? ”

Madame said it perfectly. Having a mother like Mrs. is also a blessing for the three girls, and it is also a blessing for the three girls' future in-laws. ”

No matter how rough the lines are, Li finally heard the different meaning of Princess Yujun's words, and her smile stiffened, but after all, she was the senator's wife of the Sipin Bu Political Secretary, and she was used to seeing big scenes, so she could still hide her thoughts, and after a moment of stiffness, she immediately recovered her smile, and even expanded her smile even more than before.

During breakfast, Ruqing was dug up from the bed by the strength of the two of them, because Fang Jingxuan, Princess Yujun, and Mrs. Yongningbo were leaving, and all the masters in Fang's mansion had to go to see each other off in person.

Ruqing opened her sleepy eyes, and let the two of them wear a festive rose pink embroidered flower placket round collar gown, and Shen Pozi combed her with two cute buns, and the ribbons of the same color were entangled, and under the bangs, a pair of black and white eyes were looking at the glass bronze mirror without focus, as if she hadn't woken up, but she was also delicate.

Mother Shen sighed and swallowed back the words that rolled down her throat.

After washing her face with cold water, Ruqing finally really came to her senses, and said casually: "The sound of the second sister's piano last night made me miserable. Linglong was cleaning up the bed, and couldn't help but say, "It's not, it's so late and it's murderous, what's the matter?" ”

Agarwood couldn't help but say: "It's all the prince of Jing who caused trouble, why did you live in our mansion and didn't sleep well all night last night." ”

Ruqing couldn't help but snort and laughed, and then said with a straight face: "People are guests, you can't drive them out of the house, right?" However, the second sister didn't play much late last night, probably, probably ---- time. "It's really not easy to remember the twelve hours of ancient times. It's really not too late, she doesn't go to bed until eleven or twelve o'clock every day in modern times. But since she was reborn in this ancient world, she went to bed early soon after dark, and in this long fourteen or fifteen-hour night, no matter how much she slept on, she could sleep enough, but last night she did think too much, so that Rushan's beautiful but extremely inappropriate piano sound disturbed her to toss and turn and couldn't sleep.

Linglong snorted and said, "That's because King Jing left at that time in the night. ”

Ruqing was speechless for a while, admiring Rushan for having such a great goal, and secretly pitying herself for being a turtle with a shrunken head everywhere, but she was still disgusted left and right, alas----

Thinking of what Jiang Yunran said to himself last night, and thinking back to Li Xuan's domineering face with nostrils facing the sky, he couldn't help but want to go to the villain. Thinking about Rumei's murderous appearance every time she saw Li Plunder within a radius of three meters from her, Ruqing was sad for a while, who did she provoke? Except for setting off firecrackers yesterday to turn Zhiyi from a white-faced handsome guy to a black-faced handsome pot, she has been shrinking in her Songhe Courtyard and has not gone out again. However, the mother and son of the princess of Yujun, the mother and son of the Yun family, and Fang Jingxuan's mother and son chatted in Songhetang all in one go, and she, as the little half of the master of Songhetang, also had to accompany the old lady as a foil, didn't she?

At the beginning, she only needed to maintain a childlike smile from time to time, and she could pretend to ignore the various eyes projected on her body by Jiang Yunran and others. But since Rumei came, everything has changed.

Later, the sound of the piano sounded like nothing, and everyone admired, tasted, and praised the sound of the piano as good, and praised the old lady for being blessed to have such a granddaughter who was so good at vocal music.

The old lady smiled faintly and said politely such as "Where, Madame has won the award".

It is still bearable to be false and wronged with these noble ladies, but the fierce gaze projected on her body by Jiang Yunran and others made her unbearable, and her scalp was almost numb, and she couldn't help but secretly pull the hem of the old lady's clothes. The little face showed a pleading.

The old lady looked at her with pity, and deliberately said with a straight face: "Want to sleep again?" You're a sleepy worm, you only know how to sleep all day long. Are the guests still there? ”

Ruqing pretended to be embarrassed and lowered her head, but her face made a yawn motion.

Yun Shi and the others immediately smiled and said, "The fourth girl is young, it is the time to grow her body, the old lady should not mistake her" and something like that, and then the old lady half-pushed and half-pushed Ruqing back to sleep in the room.

Liberated, Ruqing almost wanted to shout long live. Shyly and shyly bowed respectfully to everyone, and retreated obediently and quietly.

However, she finally fell asleep, but Rushan's originally literary and artistic piano sound turned into the wild music of Jin Ge Iron Horse, causing her whole body to be in a state of excitement as if she was on stimulants, and she couldn't sleep----

*

Ruqing was the last to step into Songhe Hall, and the old lady scolded her with a straight face for only knowing how to sleep lazy, and beware that there would be no in-laws in the future.

Ruqing stuck out her tongue and said embarrassedly: "Then I have to bother my grandmother to find a door for my granddaughter to sleep well." Don't seek to be rich and rich, just to live a comfortable life. ”

The old lady made a straight face, swept the faces of everyone present, and scolded: "At a young age, I began to think about some things that I didn't have. Okay, grandmother is determined to fulfill you, and in the future, she will find you an ordinary and honest family, so that you can marry and continue to live comfortably to ---- little girl, and what you think is beautiful. The old lady pulled her ears and continued to scold, "How can a daughter-in-law be as comfortable as in the boudoir?" Whether you marry high or low, you have to honor your in-laws and take care of housework, do you think you can escape just by playing lip service? Dream on you. ”

Ruqing pursed her lips, shook her head at the old lady's hand, and said innocently: "Then can I not marry?" I was always by my grandmother and wife's side. ”

Before the old lady could speak, Li Shi smiled and said, "You girl, you were scared when you said two words." Now that I don't want to marry, I guess I will still complain about us if I don't let you marry when I grow up, hehe---" Everyone laughed together, everyone talked for a while, and then had breakfast in Songhe Courtyard.

Because the Yun family and the others were about to leave after breakfast, the girls and brothers did not do it separately, but gathered around the two tables. One table for the ladies and one table for the girls and buddies.

Ruqing found that half of the people present had panda eyes, especially the Yun family was the most eye-catching, and then Jiang Yunran, what surprised her even more was that Jiang Yunran had half of her cheeks red and swollen, looked at it carefully, and there were slap marks, it was estimated that he was beaten by the Yun family, looking at the entire Fang Mansion, only his wife dared to beat him.

Jiang Yunran's expression was indeed sluggish, his expression was haggard, although he was still born beautiful, but he looked like a poor flower devastated by a storm. It's not a good analogy, but it's a good fit for him at the moment.

Yun's explanation just now was very far-fetched, and he only used a sentence of "resentful elders" to dispel everyone's questions with a bland and slightly angry sentence, how could Ruqing believe that with a person like Jiang Yunran who knew the general situation of advance and retreat, and was extremely personable, how could he be resentful elders, and it was estimated that he had adhered to certain concepts, and the Yun family was furious because of his inappropriate identity.

And Rushan, although he is in good spirits, his face is not very good, and he is estimated to be tired from playing the piano last night. And, there is no good rest.

Rumei went to bed early last night, and Rumei only listened to half of the piano, and now when she saw Rumei's appearance, she couldn't help but say sarcastically: "Second sister was tired of playing the piano last night?" ”

Rushanya glanced at her coldly, and said reservedly: "Thank you for your concern, it's okay." ”

Rumei raised the corners of her lips, "The second sister usually only practices in the afternoon, why did she change the hour yesterday?" She covered her lips and smiled, "Could it be that the second sister can only play well when there are many people?" ”

Rushan secretly sank her face, Rumei was laughing at her for being in the limelight.

Rumei saw that she didn't speak, she was even more proud, and deliberately said: "At the end of last year, I saw a peacock raised like King Jing by chance, you don't know, the peacock saw a lot of people, that one was scared, and immediately opened its wings and couldn't help showing off, the peacock is indeed beautiful, but these stupid peacocks only care about showing off their beautiful appearance, but they don't know that it opens its wings like this, and it shows its ugly buttocks, hehe, it's funny." ”

Ruqing lowered her head, desperately holding back the smile that escaped from the corners of her lips, this Rumei has finally grown up once, and she knows how to borrow things to metaphor people.

Rushan's face turned blue, but she couldn't say a word at this time, and Rumei's voice was so loud that even the old lady at the next table heard it. If it were ordinary, she would have used the color a long time ago, but on this occasion, she couldn't refute it with a word. I could only bow my head secretly, and her voice was soft, but it was also clear, "Sister, is this annoying that I can practice with my master but my sister can't learn?" If my sister wants to learn, just mention it to my father. Daddy has always loved my sister more than I have, and will definitely be able to meet her requests, but," she raised her head, her tone soft, but with a provocative contempt on her face, "Touching the piano is not an easy job, and my sister can't stop arguing about finger pain or something like before." ”

Where was Rushan hit, he almost slapped the table angrily and roared, but fortunately, Ruqingyan quickly took the dish into Rumei's mouth, and said: "Third sister, this is your favorite coupling piece, while it's hot, it's not delicious when it's cold." Secretly pulled Rumei's sleeve and signaled her not to worry about getting angry, but to take care of the occasion.

Fortunately, although Rumei is willful, she also knows how to distinguish occasions, and she hates and takes a look at Rushan and no longer speaks.

Rumei ate a few bites of food, and in order to prove that she was the master of the Fang Mansion, she deliberately found a topic and said to Li Wei: "What's wrong with my cousin?" Looks so haggard? ”

Li Shaw's complexion is indeed not good, but this time he is full of the world's shelf, although it is not annoying, but the tone and attitude of his voice are always high-minded, like Li Xiao's guy.

"Your bed is so hard that I can't sleep with a whole clam."

"----" Rumei was speechless for a while, and after sulking for a while, she forced a smile and said, "How come?" Our bed is padded with many layers of cotton wool, is it not good when people catch the bed? ”

Li Xuan snorted, "Who knows? I just didn't sleep well anyway. How could he blame the reason for the insomnia because he hated Ruqing, who had no vision and didn't know He, for a whole night.

Rumei was stunned for a long time, and after a while, she saw that Li Zhuo had just put the bowl on the table, and she was very attentive and concerned: "Cousin is full so soon?" ”

Li Chuan said: "Don't eat it, the dishes made by your cook are really unpalatable, how can it compare to my chef, who was originally in the imperial dining room, and was later hired by my father and Wang." Then he said that there was not only one cook in his kitchen, but also another person who cooked breakfast, and that there was a separate cook for supper, and that there were also people who specialized in ordering refreshments, all of which were six-year-old chefs.

Rumei said innocently: "There are so many chefs, how much silver do you need to raise?" ”

Li Xuan straightened his chest, glanced at Ruqing, and said proudly: "It's not a lot, about forty or fifty taels of silver a month." ”

Rumei has been forced by the Li family to settle accounts for a while, and she also knows the chef's market, and her family's cook is only 40 or 60 yuan a month, which is indeed too far behind Li Wei's family.

Without getting the envy and jealousy he deserved, Li Zhuo was very uncomfortable, and said loudly that his family had hundreds of subordinates, more than 20 stewards, and hundreds of guards, and there were 14 subordinates waiting in his house alone, and there were 20 subordinates serving his mother. However, the salaries of these subordinates are all paid by the household department of the court.

Rumei was stunned again, and Li Zhuo said proudly: "Although my father is only the second king of Tianzi, he is a descendant of Taizu, and our family will inherit the court's rewards and generational honors for generations, and all the expenses in the house are paid by the court, and the territory under his jurisdiction is never taxed." Again, the guards raised by my family, pulled out, are also a force, and these are all the court's favor to our family---"

Li Plunder said is also true, the founding emperor of the Daqing Dynasty is very strict with the salaries of civil and military officials, a county only three taels and nine dollars a month, another rice grain month seven stones, eighty-four years of rice, Emperor Taizu started from the grassroots, the price of silver at that time was extremely accurate, knowing a family of four to six people, plus a few people, even the sedan chair hired by the sedan chair to spend the silver two are accurate, January three two nine dollars plus the rice stone issued, just enough to eat enough, no more, no less, save a little, there is a slight surplus.

And the descendants of Emperor Taizu, but they have enjoyed the glory and wealth from generation to generation, such as the sunshine is not as beautiful as the pure ancients, only envy the yearning, according to the thinking of modern people, these dragons and phoenixes, like those social rice worms, the seven aunts and eight aunts of the official family, are all privileged to eat and drink with the public, but in fact, all the hard-earned money of taxpayers is spent, which is extremely shameful and hateful.

But in this era, the wealthy nobles who eat the hard-earned money of the common people are not ashamed, but proud, and even those people take it for granted.

Li Chuan is still bragging about how luxurious his family's life is, and in addition to Rumei, who is the most diligent, he is honest.

Zhili Zhiyi buried his head in eating, Jiang Yunran was preoccupied, and the Zhao brothers were also extremely quiet, Rushan maintained a ladylike reserve, and echoed two sentences from time to time. Li Zhuo saw that everyone ignored him, he was slightly annoyed, and when he saw Ruqing eating fried peanuts so sweetly, he couldn't help but snort coldly, "If you really haven't seen the world, this kind of food that can't be on the table is like delicacies from the mountains and seas." ”

After Ruqing swallowed the peanuts in her mouth, she said slowly: "Shizi is right, Ruqing has never seen the world." It made the prince laugh. ”

Li Xuan saw that her face was lifeless and angry, but looked at him calmly, he couldn't help but feel stunned, he didn't know where this feeling came from, he pursed his lips disdainfully, and said proudly: "My family eats much better than yours." ”

Ruqing smiled, in recent years, she has been taught by Mama Hua, and her smile has become her mask, and it is also her offensive arrogance, which can not only defend, but also attack, and not offend people.

"The prince is very right. The so-called people are more popular than people, our family has to rely on the hard work of our father and brother to eat, which is like the son of the world, born to sit and enjoy its success, there are so many people in the Daqing Dynasty to provide and raise. She bit the last four words very hard and spoke them extremely slowly.

Zhili Zhiyi, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly raised his head, looked at Ruqing in surprise, and smiled slightly, as if appreciating.

Rumei didn't hear the sarcasm in Ruqing's words, and said loudly: "Yes, so my cousin is really blessed with the favor of the heavens." ”

After all, Li Chuan is a few years older than Mei, no matter how proud he is, how can he not hear Ruqing's sarcastic words, but he reacted really quickly, "Yes, like us, royal relatives and nobles, are naturally superior, but they also have to have ability, don't they?" He countered with sharp words: "If it weren't for our grandfather to fight this country, maybe the people would still be living in dire straits." As a descendant of Grandpa Taizu, it is natural to enjoy the tribute of the people. It's a right, and it's a skill, you know? ”

I have to admit that this Li Chuan does have the ability to be a gentleman, and he can say shameless words to this point, and Ruqing can only admit defeat. So, she said very sincerely: "What the prince said is very true. My generation is incompetent, so we can only rely on our own hard work to earn rice and food. However, you, the son of the world, are indeed the true descendants of Taizu, and it is natural for you to enjoy the worship and worship of the people. Please don't blame the son. ”

Li Chuan is so angry, this hateful little girl, she used to think she was cute and innocent? Why did you become so --- sharp-tongued now?

Rumei was nervous, and she didn't hear the irony in Ruqing's words, thinking that Ruqing was really shallow, and said loudly to Li Wei: "My sister is young and ignorant, cousin don't be like her." If my cousin really doesn't have an appetite, I'll take you outside to eat something delicious in the welcome building, okay? ”

Before Li Zhuo could speak, he saw Zhili put down the bowl and got up, "I'm full, go first, you eat slowly." He looked at Ruqing with a gentle expression, "I have already sent someone to buy that embroidery book, and it is being placed in my study, so let's go and get it together while I have time now." Ruqing was very grateful to Brother Zhili for observing his face like this, and immediately got up, bowed to everyone with a slight apology, and walked away with Zhili.

Immediately after, Zhiyi also got up, said the same thing, and then strode away.

Zhilian looked left and right, raised a smile again, and took chopsticks to persuade everyone to continue eating.

The only one who responds to his call is goodness. And Li Wei didn't even look at him, only looked at the direction where Ruqing disappeared, and there was nowhere to vent a nameless anger.

Jiang Yunran, on the other hand, looked out and suddenly withdrew his gaze in despair.
