Ran Jia led the three children to bring Ran Yu, the two mothers-in-law and the two girls together. The five of them almost encircled Ran Jia and the three children tightly, isolating the crowd from each other, for fear that something would go wrong.

"Happy birthday, Mrs. Zhong!" Ran Jia said with a smile, and the three children also shouted with milky voices.

"Mrs. Ying, Ziji, Ziwei, Yuanyun, thank you, please come quickly, Mrs. Qinhou and a few young masters and young ladies have already come, and ask me why you haven't arrived." Xue Hua greeted them very affectionately.

"Mrs. Zhong, you still call us Senior Young Master Qin, Second Young Master Qin and Third Miss Qin, our Qin Mansion and Zhong Mansion are not close, and I am afraid that we will not even be able to take out decent gifts in the future, so we really can't make such a generous relationship," Qin Ziji made a gesture with a faint smile on his face, and said with a chewing word.

The smile on Xue Hua's face stiffened again, the ladies and ladies in the other mansions didn't give her face, forget it, the identity of the family was there, and the concubines and concubines present were picky and picky, after all, the power represented behind them should not be underestimated, she did not seek merit but no fault. But these people are now Bai Ding's identity, or have been cleaned out of the house, oh, by the way, Ran Jia's family has a small asset, and it seems that there is a shop, hehe, compared to his own family, it is really not enough to see, at most in Kyoto, there is more to eat, right?

She invited them just to look at the old love, and they really thought they were a dish?

"Hehe, Senior Young Master Qin, Second Young Master Qin, and Third Miss Qin, right?" Xue Hua smiled angrily, and finally found an outlet for the evil anger that had been held back for a long time, "May I ask why I call you Young Master and Miss?" Not to mention that I have broken away from slavery and become the master mother of this huge Zhong family, I don't need to hold you, even if you were driven out of the Qinhou Mansion by the old lady, it is also impossible to call the young master and young lady! ”

The three children were already precocious, and when they came out of the Qinhou Mansion, they were considerate of their parents, they didn't cry or make trouble, and their minds were sensitive, but now they were brought up by someone clearly, and their little faces were pale.

Ran Jia pursed her lips and hugged the three children on both sides of her body, and the inner door entered a small garden, and in late June, the air was full of the smell of flowers, and the banquet was placed in the hall connected by several half-open verandahs, and the girls in emerald green clothes walked back and forth with trays, and the female guests found acquaintances with each other and talked together.

Xue Hua's voice was slightly sharp, which made everyone's attention move again, and when they saw that it was the young master and young ladies of the original Qinhou Mansion, they sighed in their hearts. It's only been a few days, and the three little guys have tasted the taste of falling from the sky to the ground, thinking about how beautiful the people of Qinhou Mansion were at the beginning?

Now, alas, he was ridiculed by a nouveau riche who was born as a girl, it was really thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, but everyone looked at Xuehua with disdain. I am secretly vigilant in my heart because she does not remember the kindness of the master and servant in the past, this kind of person can't be deeply acquainted, maybe she will dare to stab you fiercely at any time.

They also sneered at Xue Hua's short-sighted gaze, the capital is full of too many impossibilities, the original Marquis of Qin is famous in front of the emperor, who knows if it will be reused in the future, and the Zhong family, who does not have any backers, is afraid that it is not worthy of carrying shoes for the young master and the young lady.

"Xuehua, what do you mean by that? If you don't welcome us, just say it, what are you throwing a tantrum at your child? Ran Jia said coldly, her little face full of chills.

"Oh, Mrs. Ying spoke, I'm so afraid, today is my birthday, but I'm happy to let the musician play everyone to have fun as soon as possible, your lord is full of anger and warns my lord, this kind of touching thing, I'm afraid it is only done by martial arts.

If I am embarrassed for you at this moment, won't your master go back and tear down our Zhong family with a knife? Jealousy flashed in Xuehua's eyes, Ying Jian was a person who had been kept in her heart for many years, and now that she had become a wife, she still couldn't let go of him. Originally, she thought that Ying Jian came to the door to say happy birthday to her, but she didn't expect him to come because the music was too loud to disturb Ran Jia's sleep!

She had been preparing for many days of joy, and was instantly doused with cold water, looking at Ying Key, who was straight and standing tall and stiff, and then looked at Zhong Chengchun, who was of medium stature and even had a belly full of oil, and her heart was half lost, half gritted her teeth and happy. Now is the day she has been looking forward to, living in the Gaomen compound, going out with a group of maids and women, covered with silk and satin, and a golden hairpin and jade ring on her head, is it better than following a reckless man who walks on the verge of death?

Xue Hua would silently suggest to herself again, her head was slightly raised, but she was still carried away by jealousy, and with a disdainful smile, she said even more mean words in front of everyone: "It's really funny, our Zhong family is quite a wealthy person, and the guests invited to the banquet are all prestige families in Kyoto, I just ran into you politely, but I didn't expect you to really dare to lick your face and come to the door."

Alas, I can't even say a polite word these days. She relied on her understanding of Ran Jia and knew that she would disdain to explain and turn around and leave, and the guests would naturally think that Ran Jia was acquiescing to her words.

Qin Ziji clenched his fists tightly and pulled Qin Ziwei who was about to rush out, while Qin Yuanyun stomped his feet directly, and the tears in his eyes never fell stubbornly.

"Shame, not shy," the little girl who had been hiding behind Mrs. Qin Hou and the same age as Qin Ziji poked her head out and laughed.

Another fifteen-year-old girl pursed her lips and smiled: "Brother Ziji, you were kicked out of the house by your grandmother, I'm afraid there will be no school to study in the future, why don't I go back and say a few good words for you, make grandma happy, and let her promise you to be my brother's companion?" The schools in the Hou Mansion are also counted in Kyoto, I don't think Brother Ziji will give up this opportunity, right? ”

Ran Jia looked at Xue Hua, Mrs. Qin Hou, and the snow geese not far away, and she was so angry that she was about to explode after hearing a few words, she couldn't imagine what kind of insults the master and the little young master and young lady had suffered. "That's enough," she sneered, tugging at the corners of her lips, "what are you relying on?" One is just a nouveau riche thing in the eyes of the powerful, and the other is the title of inheriting the empty shell of the ancestors, what kind of superiority can be regarded as superior, why do you trample on people here with great power, or three children! ”

Xuehua bit her lip and trembled with anger, what is the nouveau riche thing? But today she held her birthday, except for Mrs. Qin Hou, there really is no one who is right, isn't it in the eyes of the powerful?

"Presumptuous!" Mrs. Qin Hou slammed the table and stood up, stretched out her hand and pointed at Ran Jia, "What are you, dare to talk to Mrs. Benhou like this!" Sure enough, what kind of master there is, what kind of slave there is! ”

Ran Jia sneered: "My master treats your family well, but what do you get in exchange?" Even though the master has nothing now, we are still very happy, and we have completely cut off relations with you, and we are all comfortable.

And I can say whatever I want, don't say that you are Mrs. Hou, that is, Hou Ye is here, I will say the same.

Could it be that the Holy Majesty still doesn't let me, a little woman, tell the truth?

Or do you mean that your unsuccessful sons have won your life for you and need me to bow to you three times and nine times? ”

"You!" Mrs. Qin Hou was so angry, everything she racked her brains to get was worthless in the eyes of Zhou Shantong and even the girls around her, and Ran Jia was right, Hou Ye did not have any real power. What she said did not have any deterrent effect, wherever there was Zhou Shantong's majesty at that time, she was held by people wherever she went.

"Come on, blast out this group of people who don't know what to do with Mrs. Benhou!" She shouted as she glanced at the group of small men waiting outside the door.

Those who pretended not to hear, and the girls in the courtyard were also busy with their own business, and none of them responded to her instructions.

Mrs. Qin Hou couldn't hold her face, and looked at Xue Hua trembling all over.

Xue Hua said with a cold face: "What's the use of your long ears, didn't you hear Mrs. Qinhou's words?" ”

The girls continued to be busy, and the little servants looked at each other, and one of the leaders bowed out and whispered to Xue Hua: "Madam, the master has ordered, as long as Mrs. Ying doesn't remove the plaque on the house, don't care about any trouble." ”

Xue Hua took a deep breath, gritted her silver teeth and asked, "Why?" ”

"The master said that Ying Ye is a capable person, and it is right to be good friends with him, even if he is not good, he must not be offended, otherwise it will be difficult for the Zhong family to gain a foothold in Kyoto."

Listening to the little girl's tone with awe, she laughed directly, ha, what can a captain of the Hou Mansion do, it's just a good kung fu, but he is blind now, and being blind means that he is a waste, and no one will use him anymore.

Didn't I see that Qin Xiao, who had been serving him so hard, directly took a house and a shop and sent people away?

Oh, Zhong Chengchun is too cautious, the vision of people who come out of Fucheng is not good, I am afraid that any person on the road to the capital can be worshiped as a Buddha.

Alas, who made him her food and clothing parents, not long after the two got married, she didn't have much in her hand, and she couldn't refute his face for the time being, Xuehua could only snort coldly from Ran Jia, "Your master is amazing, please take care of yourself!" ”

Qin Yuanyun tugged at Ran Jia's clothes and pouted: "Aunt Jia, I don't like it here, I don't know any aunts, and I don't have sisters who play well, it's going to be boring to be a guest here." ”

"Ha, Qin Yuanyun, do you understand what you are talking about, now Miss Houfu is me, and in the future, Miss Ben will participate in various banquets, and talk about clothes, gold and silver jewelry, rouge and gouache with a group of young ladies from the family. As for you, you can only embroider at home and sell it to the embroidery shop to earn some money for pastries.

Hehe, I'm afraid that those sisters who have played well in your mouth have long forgotten who you are.

Maybe they don't want to remember you at all. ”

Miss Hou Fusan raised her chin arrogantly and said.
