Chapter 139: Hou Mansion Rules
When greeting the second aunt's wife, Gui Mingyue specially paid attention to Ji Yunyi's face, and saw that he was not enthusiastic with his own mother-in-law, nor did he make a big salute, but only lightly made a weekday salute.
The second aunt's eyes were slightly red, and she timidly asked the husband and wife to be harmonious or something, and Mrs. Ji coughed and stopped her mouth again.
Gui Mingyue couldn't help but look at the lady of the Hou Mansion who had a relationship, her face was rich and relaxed, if it weren't for the fact that her eyes were too sharp and compelling.
Gui Mingyue followed behind Ji Yunyi, and saw Second Lady Ji again, next to the second room was her eldest son Ji Yunsong, Second Lady Ji said apologetically: "You also have a sister named Yao'er, who is a little unwell today, and I can't come to see your new sister-in-law." β
"Second aunt is polite, Sister Yao's health is important, I will see you in the future." Gui Mingyue said.
"Yes, yes, in the future, your aunt and sister-in-law will both move around." Second Mrs. Ji said earnestly, took out a jade bracelet from her sleeve as a meeting gift, and put it in Gui Mingyue's hand with a smile.
Ji Yunyi led her to meet the Lian family next to the eldest lady, she was the widow of the late son Ji Yunqi, standing in front of the eldest lady Ji, her face was gentle and timid.
"I've seen the princess" returned to Mingyue and saluted.
"Sister-in-law is polite" Although Lian is the princess and is older than Gui Mingyue, Ji Yunyi is the eldest son of Ji Mansion, so she also has to call Ji Yunyi and Gui Mingyue brother and sister-in-law.
Next is the third aunt's wife, although this aunt does not have the beauty of Ji Yunyi's mother, and she is no longer young, but her graceful figure, full of charming eyes and eyebrows, all reveal the unique charm of a mature woman, which can be described as a variety of amorous.
The third aunt was beside her only son Ji Yunhao, Ji Yunhao was two years younger than Ji Yunlang, and when she saw her brother and sister-in-law, she quickly got up to greet her and returned the gift to Mingyue Yingying.
Ji Yunhao has a wide face and wide ears, a steady and peaceful face, and occasionally a trace or two of fine light appears in his eyes when no one is around, showing that he is not as honest and loyal as his face.
followed by the gentle and generous fourth aunt, and her delicate and lively daughter Ji Yun beside her.
There are still some young and beautiful aunts in the back, I can't remember Gui Mingyue, a little impression, not much difference in age from myself, I heard that it is Xinna, the background should not be very good, and there is obvious color and curiosity on the face of the first time to enter the palace and fly on the branches to become a phoenix.
Looking at the past, Huan Fat Yan is thin, Ying Ying Yanyan, Gui Mingyue can't help but smack her tongue secretly, this Ji Hou Ye is indeed a good fortune.
"Let's eat!" Mrs. Ji commanded.
Everyone sat down, and Gui Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief, and was just about to sit down next to Ji Yunyi and the second aunt, when she saw that the aunts around her were watching a good show.
Gui Mingyue looked at Ji Yunyi puzzled, but the latter didn't notice it, and picked up his hand with care. Gui Mingyue looked at the second aunt again, but the second aunt didn't look at her, just bowed her head in front of her son, and told her something carefully, this time Ji Yunyi rarely frowned and made a face, but it was just a perfunctory promise.
At this time, Mama Yuan, who was beside the people of Jihou Mansion, came over step by step.
"The old slave greets the young grandmother," Mama Yuan's voice sounded.
"Mama Yuan is polite" Gui Mingyue waited for her following.
"The old slave doesn't dare," Mama Yuan said expressionlessly and respectfully: "I don't know if the eldest and young grandmother can have a reprimand before getting married, as a daughter-in-law, in addition to asking for peace every morning and dusk, she also needs to serve meals wholeheartedly by her mother-in-law's side, so please get up and go to Madame's side." "This is unceremoniously said,
Is this coming?
Gui Mingyue looked around at Miss Houfu and his aunt, who seemed to be watching a good show, and slowly got up.
At this time, Ji Yunlang, who had been eating with his head bowed beside him, stretched out his hand, dragged Gui Mingyue to the chair, raised his head and said to Grandma Yuan: "So many maids in the house have been raised for nothing? You have to use her to serve the eldest lady for a meal. β
"This," although Grandma Yuan was a little stunned in her heart at the young master of the demon king of the mixed world with a full of anger, she still held back the timidity in her heart, and said with a glance: "The daughter-in-law serves her mother-in-law and eats, which is a rule left by the ancestors, and the young lady is also invited to get up." β
"Daughter-in-law? I'm just a concubine, and when it comes to real daughters-in-law, I really don't dare to be it. Ji Yunyi said sarcastically.
"Yi'er, how do you speak!" Ji Shangchang, who had been silent, had to scold a few words when he heard this: "That's your mother-in-law, let your daughter-in-law serve, you are promoting her, even your aunt should still serve!" β
"Master, let's dissipate our anger first and drink a bowl of soup," Mrs. Ji listened to the words of the Hou Ye in front of the children of the concubine's room, and couldn't help but soften her tone, glanced at Gui Mingyue, who was still sitting at the bottom, and sighed and said: "Don't dare to bother the young grandmother, second sister, I see that you are also full, so bother you." β
The second aunt gently put down the dishes and chopsticks, stood up gently with bated breath, and was about to step forward to serve softly.
Gui Mingyue glanced at the person next to him, he didn't frown this time, but the cold meaning in his eyes was even worse. Gui Mingyue thought in his heart, he also defended himself just now, how can he say that he has to repay the peach, and he can't let his own mother serve the eldest lady instead of him.
"Second aunt and wait, let's come," Gui Mingyue stood up with a smile and said: "When the daughter-in-law was at home, although she didn't see the rules for her mother to let the eldest sister-in-law serve the meal, her old man also warned her daughter-in-law that if she got married, she would not be as happy as she was in her own house, although she had coarse tea and light rice. Especially in those poor families, being a daughter-in-law should not eat more......"
As soon as these words came out, coupled with Gui Mingyue's aggrieved tone, all the concubines couldn't help but look up at the rich lady above.
"Ahem, Gui's you think too much," Hou Ye Ji said: "It's not that you won't be fed, where is my Hou Mansion when you say this?" β
When it was spread out, it was like the Hou Mansion abusing her.
"Heh, it really made the young grandmother laugh, I heard that I have always been rich when I returned home, and I came to my Hou Mansion at first, but the food is not to your liking? Thanks to the emperor's grace, the marquis has always been honest, and the marquis is just like that," Mrs. Ji rolled her eyes, suddenly sighed and said: "Now that the Hou Mansion is prosperous, the expenses will inevitably be greater, and the eldest young master, as the eldest son, must set an example." β
"Yes, in the future, my money will be handed over to the public school, please rest assured." Ji Yunyi said lightly.
"Yulu? I've heard that the eldest young master has a lot of business outside......" Mrs. Ji said.
"Don't listen to those rumors, I'm a military attachΓ©, where do I know any business." Ji Yunyi said slowly.
Mrs. Ji touched a nail that was neither soft nor hard, and she was not angry, and the future was long. It seems that he cares about this Guishi, so he will pinch her first.
For a few days, Gui Mingyue stood beside Mrs. Ji with a smile and served, which can be described as doing her best and never complaining.
Until one day, Mrs. Ji couldn't hold back her anger anymore and reprimanded: "Clip these vegetables every day, are you going to starve me to death?" β
Mrs. Ji loves to eat meat dishes, and she has to use some fresh shrimp, lion's head, bird's nest duck shreds, and roast chicks for every meal...... These big dishes, who knows this Gui Mingyue, I don't know if she deliberately played tricks on her or how, came and went to sandwich some almonds, bergamot, cucumbers, tofu skin, green vegetable buns, and other vegetarian ones for her.
She is a vegetarian and her face is green!
"The eldest lady is angry, and the daughter-in-law only said that it is good to eat some light food," Gui Mingyue said respectfully and softly: "Whatever the eldest lady wants to eat, I will bring it." β
Seeing her look low, Mrs. Ji felt a little more comfortable, and only said that she was a good person, so she casually pointed to the sugar elbow......
"Elbows?" Gui Mingyue suddenly raised her voice, and said with disdain: "Big lady, you really want to eat that elbow, how fat it is......"
The aunts below also stopped and secretly looked at the eldest lady.
"You, you are quiet!" Mrs. Ji said angrily.
"Oh," Gui Mingyue lowered her voice and said aggrievedly: "My daughter-in-law heard that only the farmer who works hard loves this greasy elbow the most......"
Hearing her words, several aunts were about to stretch out their chopsticks, and they all took them back.
"Who said you want to eat this elbow, you kid, let's slip the shrimp, the shrimp is lighter." Mrs. Ji held back her anger and said.
"Okay, my daughter-in-law will give you shrimp." Gui Mingyue sandwiched a shrimp and was about to put it in the eldest lady's plate, when she suddenly frowned, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it slightly.
"Who is responsible for buying the shrimp?" Gui Mingyue's face changed, and her majesty was slightly revealed.
"What's wrong again?" Mrs. Ji frowned and asked, "Just have a meal, you can't be more stable." β
"This shrimp is no longer fresh, the smell is too strong, daughter-in-law is afraid that you will be poisoned if you eat it." Gui Mingyue said earnestly.
"You, it's nothing to find fault, one will say that the elbow is greasy and the next person eats, and the next will say that the shrimp is not fresh, I can't use you anymore, let's go, go down!" Mrs. Ji had a meal, because Gui Mingyue was making a fuss next to her, and the food was not smooth at all, coupled with the anger accumulated a few days ago, this time it completely broke out, and she drove people out on the spot.
Seeing that the eldest lady was not angry, the concubines below also excused themselves to eat enough and left the table.
Seeing that her mother-in-law lost her temper, Lian stood up cautiously and stepped forward and said, "Sister-in-law has just arrived, so let's be served by my daughter-in-law." β
Gui Mingyue's grievances were blessed, and he withdrew.
Brought to Ji Yunyi for a hurried meal and returned to the courtyard.
At this time, Gui Mingyue was holding a big rock candy elbow and gnawing on it with relish...... It turned out that every time she waited for a meal at Mrs. Ji's place, the food was cold, so she came back and asked Jin Qi'er to cook some delicious food in the small kitchen, which Ji Yunyi acquiesced.
"I remember, some people said that this elbow was eaten by those men who worked hard." Ji Yunyi raised his eyebrows and said.
"Huh" Gui Mingyue said disdainfully in his busy schedule: "I'm in your Hou Mansion, I bother with my brains, it's not as easy as a laborer, what's wrong with eating an elbow." β
Saying provocatively, looking at Ji Yunyi provocatively, it was rare that Ji Yunyi didn't fight with her like before this time, just sighed and said something Gui Mingyue just gnawed at her elbow and didn't hear it.
