Chapter 16: Two Misses

Cheng Erniang was sent to the family temple, and the Pingyuan Hou Mansion did not set off any waves.

The young lady who didn't have much sense of existence, coupled with Yu Yongzhao's neatness, didn't alarm a few people when she sent Cheng Erniang away.

There are people talking about it, but when they think of Mrs. Cheng, no one dares to speak loudly.

"What kind of slave master, if this master is down, it will be really miserable." Li Yingluo said, "A young girl was sent to a suburban family temple, and she came back with a big belly after a few months. ”

The family temple of the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, she just hasn't been there, and she has heard of it somewhat.

It is so far away from the city, it is in the middle of nowhere, only the old nun is there, although it is the place of the Hou Mansion, but no one cares.

When a strong man goes in and robs him, it's bad luck. When you meet a black-hearted old host again, it is not new to directly let a young girl pick up a guest as a secret prostitute.

As for the master or something, forget it, in front of the food and livelihood, there may not be a silver or two to use.

"It's the daughter of the Hou Ye, I'll always remember it." Shen Xiu said, with a hint of despair in his tone.

She suddenly remembered the Shen family, something happened to the Shen family, there were many sisters in the family, what happened to her, she never dared to think about it.

Li Yingluo is right, the so-called master and slave are never insurance.

Princes and generals, rather have a kind of place, is the reality.

"I'm having a hard time." Li Yingluo said, "But I don't blame my wife for being ruthless, looking back at the past, Aunt Zhang was also disgusting." If it weren't for the strength of his wife's mother's family, she would have been divorced. ”

Mrs. Cheng and Aunt Zhang are not wise people, but they don't need wisdom many times.

A shameless and strong mother-in-law, a poor little white flower cousin, plus a greedy and lustful husband who is at the mercy of others in everything.

Mrs. Cheng, a daughter-in-law who married from afar, has a hard life. Now that she has gained power, if she wants to get back to the field of the year, she can't say that she is all wrong.

Shen Xiu was silent when he heard it, he had to get it back if he suffered a loss, it is normal for people to have Our Lady in the minority.

The two were chatting when they heard a sentence from outside the door: "Is my brother in the house?" ”

It was Cheng Yuanniang's voice.

Li Yingluo and Shen Xiu hurriedly stood up, and Shen Xiu had a heart and glanced out of the window.

I saw that in the courtyard, Cheng Yuanniang and Xu Mei came with their company.

Sixteen-year-old Cheng Yuanniang has been like a flower, generous, and has everyone's beautiful demeanor.

I have to say that Mrs. Cheng is still very attentive to the education of her biological daughter.

Xu Mei, who is also sixteen years old, is much different from Cheng Yuanniang, she is the biological daughter of Mrs. Xu.

IQ is inherited from Mrs. Xu Da, but her beauty is only inherited by one-third, although it is in the flower season, her skin is dark, and her body is fat.

"I'll go out the back door, you can say hello." Shen Xiu whispered.

Xu Mei is a frequent visitor to the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, and every time she comes back, she lives with Cheng Yuanniang, and the two of them are like sisters.

In addition to the wealth of the Plains Hou Mansion and the better life of living here, Xu Mei is also blue-eyed towards Cheng Shaomu.

is that Cheng Shaomu has already decided to marry, and he does not hide his dislike for her, Xu Mei still has no change in her heart.

Li Yingluo nodded and said, "Leave it to me." ”

Shen Xiu went out the back door and went back to his room to hide.

Li Yingluo came out with the little girl, and said with a smile: "The two young ladies are here, the uncle is not here, please sit in the house." ”

"Isn't my cousin here?" Xu Mei said with a disappointed face.

Li Yingluo said with a smile: "Uncle went out in the morning, saying that he was visiting friends, and he didn't say when he would come back." ”

Cheng Yuanniang didn't care, and said, "If you're not here, then we'll go back." ”

"Sister, why worry, we're fine anyway, why don't we wait in my brother's house." Xu Mei smiled and said, "Maybe my brother will come back in a while, wouldn't it be nice to see us here." ”

Cheng Yuanniang couldn't help but glance at Xu Mei, hesitated and said, "Okay, let's wait for a while." ”

Xu Mei's intentions for Cheng Shaomu, she knows it well. She also persuaded Xu Mei, but Xu Mei didn't listen, so she didn't bother to say anything.

Her brother is so handsome and handsome, Xu Mei has a vision.

However, the elder brother has already been engaged, but he has not been married, and with Xu Mei's appearance, the elder brother can't look down on him.

"Okay, just a moment." Xu Mei said with a smile.

Li Yingluo immediately said, "Two young ladies, please sit in the room." ”

Cheng Yuanniang and Xu Meiru went into the house hand in hand and sat down, and Li Yingluo personally poured tea and served it.

Cheng Yuanniang took it calmly, but Xu Mei said with a smile: "I'm tired of my sister." ”

Li Yingluo is the granddaughter of the Grand Steward of the Marquis Mansion of Pingyuan, and the maid who has served Hou Cheng Shaomu for the longest time, and is also the steward of Tingfeng Xuan.

thought that she would become an aunt, but she didn't expect Cheng Shaomu to have no intention of her, and it has long been rumored that Li Yingluo has already decided on a family affair and will soon marry outside the house.

has an outstanding identity, but is not a rival in love, so she is naturally much more polite to her.

"You're welcome, Miss." Li Yingluo said with a smile, and when the tea was served, she stood aside and waited for the summons.

Xu Mei said with a smile: "Why is my sister so unfamiliar, our daughter's family should sit down and talk together." ”

"In front of Miss, where is my place." Li Yingluo said with a smile.

Cheng Yuanniang frowned slightly, although she didn't say it explicitly, she also felt that Xu Mei's words were inappropriate.

It's a young lady's, why bother with a subordinate like this.

Xu Mei said with a smile: "This month, I was idle at home, and I made two more clothes, both of which were made for my brother. I'll send a girl to bring it later, and I'll bother my sister to pass it on to my brother. ”

"I'm tired of Miss Tired." Li Yingluo said, but she looked down on Xu Mei in her heart.

It's not a brother or sister, it's obviously a cousin and cousin who should avoid suspicion, but he often makes clothes and shoes, and it's a joke when he spreads it.

Especially Cheng Shaomu didn't care at all, the clothes sent by Xu Mei were all appreciated without looking at them.

At the beginning, she also hinted at Xu Mei, but Xu Mei pretended not to hear it, so she didn't bother to say it.

It can only be said that the little servant of the waiter Cheng Shaomu is in good condition, and he will have new clothes soon.

"Speaking of which, why is my sister alone in the house, and the other?" Xu Mei said meaningfully, "As a girl who is so unruly, and the master is not there, she runs out to play, and she should be punished severely." ”

In the entire Plains Hou Mansion, what she hated the most was Shen Xiu. Obviously, the Du family has become an official slave, and he can still seduce Cheng Shaomu with his face.

In her opinion, Shen Xiu should have been sent back to the sect a long time ago, and that was where she should have stayed.

"Shen Xiu has been feeling a little unwell these days, and the uncle has taken care of her subordinates and asked her to go back to her room to rest." Li Yingluo said lightly.

Xu Mei was even more indignant when she heard this, but she said: "My brother is kind-hearted, and everyone takes care of him." ”

Li Yingluo was too lazy to answer, in her opinion, Xu Mei was really a shame for women.

It's obviously destined to be reincarnated as a young lady, although it's not good-looking, but as a woman, it seems to be a little more reserved.

Running after my cousin who is married every day, is this planning to come up and be a concubine?

"Okay, let's not talk about this, what does a girl have to say." Cheng Yuanniang said impatiently, and asked Li Yingluo again: "What has my brother been busy with recently, and he is often not at home." ”

Li Yingluo said: "I don't know much about things outside. A few days ago, the housekeeper's daughter-in-law came to pass the word, and the wife had an order that the uncle's marriage should be prepared, let us prepare. Uncle I'm afraid he's also busy with this. ”

Cheng Shaomu doesn't care about the marriage with the Tao family, but Xu Mei definitely doesn't like to hear this.

Sure enough, Xu Mei's face suddenly fell, and she said, "I heard earlier that the eldest girl of the Tao family was born ugly, and her personality is like a lion in Hedong. It is a pity that the brother's pearl-like character has met such a tigress. ”

This kind of complaining about the future housewife, Li Yingluo listened silently, but did not answer.

Cheng Yuanniang also said: "I have also heard that this Miss Tao is only afraid of an average appearance. ”

Qingyang is not big, and there are so many rich and noble families. Miss's moral character or something, it's normal for rumors to be wrong.

Only the appearance is there, and you can tell at a glance whether it is beautiful or ugly.

Miss Tao has no good name, so she must be far away from the beauty, at most, she looks ordinary, and her appearance is not worthy of praise at all.

"And it's wonderful, I heard that the wife of the Tao family is asking the Ya Po in the city to buy beautiful women." Xu Mei said, with a sour tone, "It must be my own daughter who is ugly, so I want to buy a few beauties to be a dowryman." ”

Li Yingluo heard that her heart moved, and then she was relieved.

Beauty is not so easy to buy, not to mention the high price, it is hard to find. With the financial resources of the Tao family, in such a short period of time, it is difficult to buy a beauty that surpasses Shen Xiu.

However, the Tao family behaves like this, and after the new grandmother enters the door, she is afraid that it will not be peaceful.

"Don't talk about these things here." Cheng Yuanniang interrupted her, and saw that Xu Mei was getting more and more unseemly, so she said, "It's not too early, and I don't know when my brother will come back, we should go back too." ”

Xu Mei didn't want to leave, it was rare to come, she really wanted to see her sweetheart, and said, "Good sister, wait a while." ”

Cheng Yuanniang became impatient, got up and said, "Then you wait here, I want to go back." ”

Xu Mei stood up and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go, let's go." ”

Li Yingluo didn't say anything about keeping guests, and sent two out according to the rules.

When she arrived at the door, Xu Mei also said: "I'll send a girl to deliver the clothes in a while, and my sister must hand them over to my brother." ”

Li Yingluo smiled and said, "Please be careful and rest assured. ”

She will definitely inform Cheng Shaomu, and then Cheng Shaomu will reward people with her clothes.

"Let's go." Cheng Yuanniang said impatiently.

It's good to send it off, Xu Mei and Cheng Yuanniang finally left, Li Yingluo couldn't help sighing, and said to the little girl next to her: "Go and call Shen Xiu, Miss Xu is gone." ”

"Yes." The little girl responded, but couldn't help but mock: "This Miss Xu is really eyeless." ”

"So, you can't live like her as a woman." Li Yingluo said to herself a little.

Li Yingluo was about to turn around and go back to the house, when she saw a mother-in-law hurriedly enter the door and said, "Girl, something big is ahead." ”

"What's wrong?" Li Yingluo asked.

The mother-in-law said: "Just now the Yan Wangfu sent Bu Wen, and the prince of Yan Wang passed away. ”

"Huh??" Li Yingluo was shocked.
