Chapter 197: Eat a Fresh Meal
Li Jingyi also knows a little about Mrs. Chen, she and Mrs. Wang have reached a consensus, Mrs. Chen can't get through with them, and it is estimated that it is time to find a way for the eldest princess of Jinyang.
The eldest princess of Jinyang didn't expect her daughter to ask about Mrs. Chen, and said, "It's no wonder that she is in a hurry, the only unfavored show girls in the palace are the Su family of Minghui and General Yuanyi, we have all seen the Su family, the birth is excellent, but the temperament is not very good, but Minghui is such a good girl, generous and well-behaved, why can't she get into the eyes of the emperor?" ”
"According to the daughter, this wealth is fateful, and it is enough for my mother to help me here, is it possible that you still want to press the emperor to recruit whom? It is the emperor who gives face to his mother, but in his heart he blames you for many things, or he has evil the king's talents, isn't it the opposite of what he wanted? Li Jingyi knows the temperament of the eldest princess of Jinyang, and others will soften their hearts as soon as they ask, "What's more, isn't there a Su talent?" ”
Su Wanjun said in another temperament, but her appearance is obviously better than Wang Minghui, and the eldest princess of Jinyang can't understand Emperor Longwu's interests, "What you said is that she is not the only one,"
I heard Li Jingyi say again, "Speaking of which, it hasn't been long since the grandmother of Bofu passed away, maybe the child is also here for this reason, and Mrs. Chen is too, at this time, I should accompany the two children in the mansion more,"
Who else is more pitiful than a motherless child?
As soon as Li Jingyi said, the eldest princess of Jinyang remembered that there was a Shen family in Chengenbo Mansion who had passed away not long ago, "I actually forgot her, looking at the age of the eldest prince, the Shen family is also young, it's a pity." ”
Hearing what Li Jingyi said, the eldest princess of Jinyang also felt the same way, "When Mrs. Chen came over that day, I also saw the eldest prince, and I was also a pitiful," she should have said a few words of relief.
Not to mention that Wang Zhang wants to give the Shen family filial piety for a year, it is not suitable to go out, so that the eldest princess of Jinyang can't remember that he is a widower, it can be seen that this Wang Zhang does not have much affection, Li Jingyi remembered what Yun Chi said to her before leaving, the Shen family has a lot of complaints about the death of their daughter, "This Mrs. Chen is too rude, how can she take the eldest son who has not been filial to come to our house?" ”
What's this, the eldest princess of Jinyang's face sank, and turned her head to stare at Aunt Zhu on the side, "Yes, why did you call them in?" "Don't remind yourself of it?
Aunt Zhu complained bitterly in her heart, the eldest princess of Jinyang treated her too badly for a while, she knew in her heart that this was because she helped Li Jingyi from time to time, if she had put it aside, the eldest princess of Jinyang would never have reprimanded her in public because of this.
"It's the slave who was negligent, please punish Your Highness," Aunt Zhu couldn't tell that she was not in Xian'an Courtyard at the time, as soon as Mrs. Chen's post was sent in, the eldest princess of Jinyang hurriedly called her good father-in-law to greet her, as for the eldest prince, she also heard Mrs. Chen say that her son sent her over, and she specially summoned her.
"Forget it, you get up," the eldest princess of Jinyang waved her hand impatiently and asked Aunt Zhu to get up, "This palace didn't say anything about you, it's just such a thing, you didn't come to remind you, this is a big New Year," how unlucky."
Li Jingyi could see from Aunt Zhu's expression that she was only afraid that she would be a loser this time, "What Mother said is, Aunt Zhu is also in charge of the affairs in your yard, that is, someone was invited in outside, and she shouldn't have asked someone to enter her mother's yard!" ”
Li Jingyi saw that the eldest princess of Jinyang had a look on her face, and continued, "Mother doesn't have to be angry with her subordinates, it's better to be like this, Aunt Zhu is the aunt in charge of your yard, if you don't punish her, it will inevitably break the rules, so you can fine her for half a month's money to set an example." ”
"I think it's better to forget it, I just remembered that Aunt Zhu was not on duty that day," Li Jingyi not only did not intercede for Aunt Zhu, but also punished her, the eldest princess of Jinyang had no suspicions, but she felt a little sorry for her daughter and Aunt Zhu, "Speaking of which, the most blameworthy thing is that Chengenbo Mansion, not guarding filial piety at home, what is running around?" I'm not afraid of other people's taboos! ”
This can be seen from the rules of Chengenbo Mansion, Li Jingyi is as good as a stream, "Since my mother said so, then I will not punish Aunt Zhu, but since my mother handed over the yard to my aunt, my aunt should do her best, you must know that only if your mother is good, you can be good." ”
Li Jingyi pulled herself out of the anger of the eldest princess of Jinyang with a move, and Aunt Zhu became more and more deferential, kowtowed and thanked the two masters before retreating to arrange lunch.
"Hmph, my sister has been working with my father-in-law for more than ten years, how can I have a love for incense, I didn't expect my father-in-law to pit my sister, and I was not soft at all," Aunt Zhu sank as soon as she walked out of the gate of Xian'an Hall, and her voice was obviously unhappy.
Just now, when the eldest princess of Jinyang questioned Aunt Zhu, Liang's father-in-law was also there, but he really didn't plan to come forward to clarify for Aunt Zhu, these days he and Aunt Zhu have secretly turned their faces, for this woman who "betrayed" the eldest princess and recognized Li Jingyi as the master, Liang's father-in-law has nothing to do with her!
"Look at what my aunt said, our Highness is the softest-hearted, even if she asks you a few words, there is no malice, why does my aunt hold on to it like this, and blame Your Highness in her heart?"
Aunt Zhu laughed angrily at the words of the good father-in-law, "My father-in-law is really eloquent, if I don't answer a few words, I'm afraid that by the afternoon, His Highness will know that I, a slave and maid, have a grudge against His Highness,"
Aunt Zhu's voice was obviously a little louder, "Mrs. Chen's mother and son were obviously brought in by her father-in-law, why didn't you squeak when His Royal Highness asked?" Do you really think that if you don't keep quiet, Your Highness will remember it afterwards? Our eldest princess is in her prime, and there is nothing she can't remember, and her father-in-law is too smart! ”
After that, he sneered coldly, shook the handkerchief in his hand, and helped the little maid out of the door of Xian'an Courtyard, but he didn't miss a word from what he should have said, "This is the mansion of the eldest princess of Jinyang, not the private residence of the martial family!" ”
"Phew, the villain at both ends of the first rat," Father-in-law Liang looked at Aunt Zhu's straight back, and spat on the ground fiercely for a while.
He explained a few words to the little maid standing outside the door, and slowly went to his resting place behind, and the good father-in-law went out of the city to pick up Li Jingyi early in the morning on the order of the eldest princess of Jinyang, and he was a little tired after running around all morning, but this lunch, he also wanted to serve by the side of the eldest princess of Jinyang in person, and he had to steal time to recuperate his spirit.
The eldest princess of Jinyang did not allow Li Jingyi to go back to her yard, Li Jingyi simply asked Yuxiang and Hanxiao to bring her clothes, freshened up directly in the Xian'an courtyard, and came out to continue to talk to her mother.
The eldest princess of Jinyang looked at her radiant daughter who had washed away the dust, she was stunned for a long time but couldn't laugh, and she took her hand for a long time and said, "Alas, I was wrong to blame Aunt Zhu just now, the new funeral in Chengenbo Mansion is something I didn't think about, since you came back from Zhuzhou, I can't see anyone who has a bad time, thinking about reaching out and pulling it, it can be regarded as accumulating some blessings for you." ”
Where is this, Li Jingyi couldn't understand her mother's brain circuit, "Mother thinks too much, my daughter has you and her father, how blessed it is, my mother gives porridge and medicine every year, and the people remember your goodness!" ”
Li Jingyi said this, the eldest princess of Jinyang really didn't do it herself, every year it's just time, so she asked Gao Jin to receive the silver Zhang Luo, and she didn't complain that she didn't think she had done anything.
The two were talking, Aunt Zhu came to invite, the eldest princess of Jinyang took Li Jingyi to the side hall, and she heard Aunt Zhu laugh behind her, "The slave maid specially asked the chef to bring back the land vegetables brought back by the county lord, and the gray gray cabbage has been rectified, and the slave and maid look at the basket of elm money brought back by the county lord, it is really fresh and tender, and the slave and maid usually look at it, we want to eat elm money in the city, but I am afraid that we will have to wait a few days." ”
Li Jingyi didn't know about farming, and she didn't know when these things should grow, and when she saw Aunt Zhu saying that it was rare, she was very happy, "This is what the old man on the Zhuangzi led people to find for a long time, saying that the countrymen have nothing to honor their mothers, saying that they make dumplings and eat them very fresh, and clean their mouths for their mothers." ”
Yu Qian'er dumplings? The eldest princess of Jinyang was aroused, "Then I'm going to taste it today, when I was in the palace before,"
She paused her voice and looked for her father-in-law, and when she saw him hurrying over, she couldn't help laughing, "I was about to say you, you came, do you remember that we were in the palace before, and you got me from outside the palace to eat?" ”
The tears of the good father-in-law almost fell, "How can you not remember, what a hardship His Highness had back then!" "He didn't suffer less, otherwise he would know how to enjoy it now?
The eldest princess of Jinyang is not favored, and the palace is full of people who are high and low, after the death of Qin Concubine, sometimes even food and clothing cannot be guaranteed, but fortunately, the good father-in-law is also very popular, and she can often run outside the palace to bring her some food, "Speaking of this, the slave maid did not run to the Qin Mansion with a shy face. ”
I think that when the Qin family was in the Zeng dynasty, they were not very proud, although Qin Shilang hung a squire title, but because he refused to give in to the Zeng family, he often reported illness at home, Qin Weijia's three brothers, and only Qin Weijia, who was still a county magistrate at that time, and the others stayed at home to "serve the sick".
Speaking of this, the good father-in-law also looked sad, "It's the slave and maid who are useless, and I can't find a good one for His Highness,"
The Qin family can help the eldest princess of Jinyang is also limited, at most it is some food, Li Jingyi sighed, "Fortunately, there were grandfathers and uncles back then, and they ......."
Suddenly mentioning the past, the eldest princess of Jinyang also felt heavy in her heart, there were several sisters who died of illness in the harem back then, "I remember a fever, my grandmother in the palace said that it would be fine if she was hungry for a few days, and she didn't report it to the Zeng family at all, let alone ask for a doctor, if it weren't for the good father-in-law who ran out and got herbs to secretly boil for me to drink,"
I'm afraid she doesn't have today.
