Chapter 149: Showing Favor
Shen Rong was in a hurry here, but she looked at Sheng Mingzhu as leisurely as no one, and she couldn't see through Sheng Mingzhu's thoughts. But she is a noisy girl who can't hide her words, otherwise she wouldn't have come to Sheng Mingzhu so urgently and scolded Guan Ping by the way.
"My cousin and Lin Qingyan met in Weimo, and they used to be quite proud, who didn't say that it was his old friend, he was afraid of the revival of his old feelings. Little cousin-in-law, you don't take it seriously here, people will kick their noses and face when they turn around, and climb on your head. I've said so much, so tell me what you have in mind. Shen Rong stood in the pavilion and said a little dryly, and her heart was indescribably bored, at this time, the sun made her cheeks hot, and she felt that the heat was sweating, and her body was not refreshing. Looking at the jujube soup that the sister-in-law had mentioned first, she didn't plan to wronged herself, so she moistened her mouth first.
Sheng Mingzhu leaned on the rocking chair, looking at Shen Rong's appearance, it was not easy to talk to her in detail, but look at this posture. If this little girl comes here today and doesn't have a good letter, I'm afraid she will have to take her to see Guan Ping's old good looks, and give the other party some color before she stops.
"After all, it is the person who is rewarded by the prince, and I am in such a hurry to make the other party lose face, not to mention falling behind. also made others laugh and say, but it is not worth the loss. Sheng Mingzhu had no choice but to say from herself, trying to dispel Shen Rong's idea of pulling herself into trouble with Lin Qingyan.
Shen Rong drank the jujube soup, and after listening to the words of the little cousin-in-law, she felt that there was some truth, but it was not, no matter what happened, Lin Qingyan, the concubine, should know some rules, and she would come to ask the master mother first.
As they spoke, there was already a maid on the other side who had led the newly entered Aunt Lin to greet the mistress.
Lin Qingyan is dressed elegantly and plainly today, but her every move is a style that cannot be concealed, but she came forward to say goodbye in a proper manner, her eyebrows are gentle, her attitude is extremely deferential, and she can't find a trace of mistakes or omissions.
"Concubine Lin asks Mrs. for peace, I don't know if Mrs. has any orders?" Lin Qingyan saluted. When she first arrived at the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, her posture was in a good position. I didn't say much, but asked my wife to tell me.
If Sheng Mingzhu throws her face and makes it difficult, it seems that Sheng Mingzhu can't tolerate people, is mean and unkind, and is not generous enough.
Sheng Mingzhu hadn't found the other party to set up rules yet, but this Lin Qingyan took her off guard first. The other party looked gentle and gentle, I am afraid that it is not a simple person, since the other party has already made a move, it seems that he has to see the move.
Sheng Mingzhu motioned for Jin Zhi to help her up, and said with a smile: "It's all my own family, so I don't have to see outside." You are new to the house, I should naturally take care of it more, I don't know if this Qinghui courtyard is still used to living, what is missing, if the next person is not satisfied, you can tell me to make the decision for you. ”
After Lin Qingyan got up, he generously replied to Sheng Mingzhu's words: "Thank you, madam, the people below have all been trained by Mrs., so they are naturally diligent." The concubine is clumsy, and she came to the house for the first time, for fear that she will not please her wife, but now she knows what kind of person her wife is. Mrs. everyone's demeanor, the concubine is ashamed. ”
Shen Rong on the side squinted, thinking about those rumors, and even looked down on her, this mouth was like honey, and she was familiar with the horse, and she was worthy of being a famous Qinglou from the left and right.
Shen Rong was preconceived, but now listening to the other party's change of method to please Sheng Mingzhu, and then looking at the other party's appearance, she felt even more fake, her straight temper couldn't help but stab: "Aunt Lin's mouth is really good at talking, and she compares us to us." ”
Lin Qingyan was originally here to test Sheng Mingzhu's temperament, and Mrs. was not embarrassed, but this young lady was aggressive. She pretended to be abrupt and said, "The concubine is rude, Miss Cousin has been a guest in the house for many days, but she has never seen her." ”
Shen Rong was choked by the other party's accentuated guest, which means that she is noisy? Or is she relying on the house to eat and drink for nothing! She didn't say a complete sentence for a long time. He was so angry that he glared at people, and he couldn't use his fists and feet to vent his anger like he did in the army.
The three of them talked for a while, and then went back to the house.
That night, when Jin Zhi was grooming Sheng Mingzhu, he still couldn't hold back his mouth for a while, and mentioned Lin Qingyan with some concern: "Madam, I don't think Aunt Lin is like an honest person, I'm afraid that she can't recognize her identity, how can she be pampered and proud in the future?" ”
Sheng Mingzhu didn't speak yet, and the girl below said that Dingguohou went to Aunt Lin's room today, and I was afraid that she would not come to the main room.
When Jin Zhi heard this, he couldn't help but feel aggrieved for his wife: "Madam, you see that she is restless on the first day, I am afraid that she will use some foxy means to bully the Hou Ye in the future, I heard that there are all kinds of methods in the Qinglou hook fence." ”
Mrs. and Hou Ye don't have heirs yet, if this concubine comes out first, isn't this a slap in the face, how many people are waiting to see the joke. Soon after the marriage, the marquis took concubines and favored concubines, how can his wife live in the future.
The more Jin Zhi thought about it, the more scared he became, and he couldn't help but make an idea for Sheng Mingzhu: "It's better for Madame, you let someone send some supplements, maybe Hou Ye just can't pull his face and leave, so that Aunt Lin drags it off, or say that Madame is not happy, let Hou Ye come over and take a look." Jin Zhi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, on the other hand, Sheng Mingzhu was not in a hurry at all, and looked like only the people around him were hot.
Sheng Mingzhu was lying on the beauty couch, playing with the golden step shake taken from the bun, and the gold tassels on it lined her hands with white and tender, like mutton fat jade. Sheng Mingzhu smiled while listening to Jin Zhi's words: "This unmarried little girl is more anxious than me, a new wife, Aunt Lin is an old acquaintance with Hou Ye, and it is common sense to talk about the old today." ”
Madame didn't blame, and Jin Zhi's courage also grew: "Madam, this old story is all on the bed, and the slave is worried that the body of the Hou Ye will not be able to withstand the methods of the Goolan Courtyard." The old people all said that those famous prostitutes were goblins who sucked people's souls, and they specialized in eating men's essence. ”
When Jin Zhi said this, he was so ashamed that he slapped himself in the mouth, and he shouldn't have tried to be quick to let his wife hear these foul words.
Sheng Mingzhu didn't speak when she listened, she just shook the golden step, and the whole person was crooked to the beauty couch, indescribably lazy and charming, so that the girls looked stunned and a little dizzy.
"Where did the pom-poms go? Why can't you see it? Sheng Mingzhu asked the girls, her fingers slid over the smooth green silk, and she combed her hair with her fingers for a while.
Jin Zhi pouted: "I'm afraid I'm going to go crazy again, why is I not at home like Master Hou." I don't feel sorry for the master who is looking forward to its return, and he is also a wild man who is out all day long. ”
Sheng Mingzhu looked at the golden branch with a lot of pompoms, knowing that this girl was not good at talking about the marquis himself, so she could only use the pompoms to scold a few words.
For pompoms, this is the most unjust finger scolding.
Not long after, Sheng Mingzhu heard someone outside reply, saying that the pompom cat Xu smelled the fishy smell on the dinner table and ran to Qinghui Courtyard, Guan Ping chased the cat out of the yard, and sent someone to send the cat back, but Hou Ye himself did not come, and turned back to Qinghui Courtyard halfway.
Jin Zhi hugged the pom-pom in, and said while combing the messy hair on the pom-pom's body: "The smell of Qinghui Courtyard is good, something without conscience." It's not for people to send it back in a hurry, and it depends on how long you remember next time. ”
Sheng Mingzhu laughed out loud this time: "Okay, okay, what do you say it does?" It doesn't understand either. I remember if I left a plate of sea bass and gave it to eat, I was afraid that I would be hungry after going out and hanging around. ”
The next day, Sheng Mingzhu got up early in the morning and took the cat to walk in the garden, and saw Lin Qingyan supporting a group of people to move things from a distance.
Seeing that they were all silk yarns, brocades, and all kinds of brightly colored cloths were held in the hands of the servants, they all moved to Qinghui Courtyard with Lin Qingyan. Sheng Mingzhu and Lin Yuyan also met on the wooden bridge in the garden.
When Sheng Mingzhu saw Lin Qingyan, Lin Qingyan also saw Sheng Mingzhu walking the cat, and hurriedly stepped forward, with a smile in his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth raised, and a faint hint of pride in his eyes: "Say hello to Madame, the concubine doesn't know that Madame is going to go this way, but the cloth rewarded by the Hou Ye must be sorted out, do you want to ask Madame to pass first?" These are all tributes to the palace, and the concubine mentioned it casually last night, so she went to the palace to choose some and sent them to the palace in person. Mrs. and Hou Ye are newly married, presumably the concubine has it, and the cloth that Hou Ye gave to Mrs. will only be more precious. ”
Jin Zhi couldn't listen to it at first, she naturally knew that there was no cloth sent from the main house this morning, and the entire Hou Ye's entry was recorded, and it was ridiculous that Lin Qingyan would not know the number of cloths. This Aunt Lin was so rampant once she was favored, which made it clear that she wanted to make Mrs. shameless.
Jin Zhi stopped in front of Lin Qingyan like a little hen guarding her cubs, blocking her smug face before saying, "Since Aunt Lin said that she wanted to let Mrs. go first, she should know how to be humble and give way!" ”
The subordinate who carried the cloth seemed to be still looking at Lin Qingyan's face, after all, it seems that this new love is more favored now, but the lady is also the master after all, so she has to wait for the masters to divide the winners and losers before they do things.
Lin Qingyan didn't feel that what he said just now was both showy and sow-stirring up discord, and he was not uncomfortable at all in the face of Jin Zhi's angry reprimand, he turned sideways and gave up an arm's width before saying: "Naturally, I want to let it, I have always heard that Mrs. Linglong's figure is not graceful, then Mrs. please." ”
Jin Zhi looked at the arm-wide place and wanted to pounce on Lin Qingyan and bite Lin Qingyan, but she still held back, and was about to attack, but she heard her wife laugh and said: "Speaking of the figure is still not as good as the famous Qingyan in the capital, Jin Zhi, why argue, they all say that thousands of miles of books are only for the wall, so why not let him be three feet." The Great Wall is still there, and Qin Shi Huang is not seen. So why should I let three feet go today? Let Aunt Lin go first and tidy up her cloth. ”
Lin Qingyan didn't expect Sheng Mingzhu to be so enduring, this person was either a soft persimmon or a ......
However, before Sheng Mingzhu and his party could get out of the way, an angry voice scolded first: "Lin Qingyan! Don't deceive people too much! ”
