Chapter 96: Take the initiative to curry
The little รท said โ Net], the โ little รท said โ Net],
When Wang Youqing went to Cheng's house, he didn't see Cheng Sanniang, he thought she was missing, but he didn't expect to receive a letter from this cousin the next day, saying that he would invite him to go to Yu's mansion and see Yu's father-in-law.
The two of them are grasshoppers on a rope, Cheng Sanniang will not harm him no matter what, and the chief eunuch has the most sacred heart, with a few good words from him, it may be easier to say when the palace test is in the future.
With this kind of thought, Wang Youqing went to Yufu, he himself is also a person with real talent and learning, and he was born very handsome, which can be called Zhilan Yushu, at first Yu's father-in-law still had a little dislike for him, and later he couldn't help but change, and he was impressed with him, plus Cheng Sanniang took the lead from it, Wang Youqing became a frequent visitor to Yufu, and many scholars felt that he was in company with eunuchs, and they were very disdainful; There are also many people who envy it, but unfortunately no one recommends them.
Seeing that things were going in the direction she expected, Cheng Sanniang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, thinking of Yan Ruyu, who was steadily opening on the main street, she was extremely angry, but there was nothing she could do, and she soaked it for several days before she asked for a little news from Father-in-law Yu.
The girl who was bought was named Lotus Leaf, and she did something for Father-in-law Yu, but she was not even disposed of by Xue Su, maybe she had been exposed. If you rush to the door, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not show your feet.
Thinking about it like this, Cheng Sanniang had to hold back the idea of revenge, and An Ansheng stayed in the house.
Xue Su didn't deliberately inquire about Wang Youqing, she stayed in the house in Tonghua Lane to raise the baby, Liansheng followed the female gentleman to read and learn calligraphy in the morning, and after the noon break, he came to the main courtyard to learn how to make grease with her.
To be honest, Xue Su didn't plan to hide the secret recipe for a lifetime, she wanted to find a successor more than the benefits obtained from running a private museum. Mother Xue handed her the secret recipe before she died, and she definitely hoped that her craft could be carried forward, but it was a pity that she believed in the wrong person in her previous life and lost her life in vain.
When she first came to the capital, Liansheng was in a prosperous place, and she was fascinated by these superficial rich scenes, but fortunately, the little girl was not very old, and she was not hopeless, so she was sensible with a little teaching.
Xue Su saw it in his eyes, and he also had a little bit of a teaching mind. A few days ago, she summoned Liansheng and asked her if she would like to learn how to prepare the cream, and the little girl was stunned at the time, and then her eyes were slightly red, and she burst into tears. Seeing her like this, Xue Su couldn't cry or laugh, and coaxed softly for a while, and her emotions slowly calmed down.
-------
On this day, the female gentleman had just left the study, and Liansheng packed up his things and prepared to go to the main courtyard to have dinner with his aunt. Before she could walk out of the door, Zhou Aya'er followed, her immature face showed a sweet smile, and her voice was crisp, "Miss Liansheng, Aya'er hasn't been to say hello to Madame for a few days, okay with you today?" โ
Even after getting along for so long, Liansheng still doesn't have a good impression of the little girl in front of her, in her eyes, the mother and daughter are scheming, Zhou is Zhou Hongyong's widow, but the heart and liver hidden under the skin are black, always beating her uncle's idea, and not peeing to take care of herself, there is a little bit of her aunt on her body.
Squinting slightly, Lian Sheng looked down at her, the corners of his mouth hooked up a sarcastic smile, "Uncle said before that you won't be allowed to disturb your aunt, have you forgotten all his words?" โ
Zhou Aya'er never thought that she would be so unkind, the smile on her face was slightly stiff, and she sighed for a long time, "Aya'er just went to ask for peace, she won't disturb Mrs., Miss rest assured." โ
"If you don't want to study in the Hou Mansion anymore, you can naturally go and ask for peace, I won't stop you." After speaking, Liansheng turned his head and left, not wanting to look at her more than half a glance.
Zhou Aya'er stood in place, staring at her back, her eyes almost bursting with fire, but she didn't dare to say anything, and finally left the Hou Mansion in a gloomy manner.
Back in the small courtyard, Zhou took her hand and asked eagerly, "Why did you come back so early, didn't you see Xue?" โ
Throwing the book on the table casually, Zhou Aya'er's face was full of disgust, and she held her breath and said, "Uncle Hou said earlier that he would not let his daughter go to the main courtyard, and even if he saw the Xue family, what was the use?" Uncle Hou didn't even look at you, how could he accept you as a concubine? โ
Although these words are not pleasant, there is no moisture, Zhou seems to have been slapped twice, a delicate face suddenly turned eggplant purple, thick resentment welled up in his eyes, his mouth kept scolding, and everything dirty and smelly spit out.
The Zhou family firmly believes that if it weren't for the Xue family's slut who was jealous and occupied Chu Qinghe, how could he not take a concubine?
After taking a sip of water, Zhou Aya'er said softly, "Instead of being a concubine for Uncle Hou, it is better to wait for the filial piety period to pass, and then find a good family, my mother is so beautiful, why do we have to suffer like this, my daughter really doesn't want to please Liansheng anymore"
"Where is it so easy to find relatives? Is it possible to find a random military man to marry? I have to lose my head when I go to the battlefield, and I will become a widow again, and I can't afford to toss it for three years and three years. When he spoke, Zhou was extremely anxious, slightly folded his eyebrows, and his beautiful face with plain clothes could indeed arouse the pity of men.
The mother and daughter were speechless for each other, and they couldn't think of any other way for a while, so they could only take one step at a time.
------
Since the last time, Tan Zheng forced Xue Su to close the private house, and the Tan family has lived in peace for a while, but the relationship between the two governments has fallen into a stalemate, and if it is not eased, I am afraid that it will gradually drift apart.
Chu Qinghe, as an auxiliary marquis, has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is powerful, such a righteous son is a great help to both the father and son of the Tan family, if he pushes people away, it will be a blessing or a curse.
The family sat in the flower hall, Tan Yuanqing's Qingli face showed obvious disgust, his nails played with the jade beads on Hao's wrist, and said angrily, "Since the Xue family married the righteous brother, she has completely enveloped people, she is just a village woman who can't get on the stage, thinking that the Hou Mansion has reached the sky, but she doesn't know how dangerous the court is, and she also instigates the righteous brother to centrifuge with us, as long as she is there, the suspicion between the two mansions cannot be eliminated." โ
Tan Bixing shook his head slightly, disagreeing, "I think my sister-in-law has a good character, the previous incident of cherishing the New Year, it was indeed our family who did something wrong, and the moth made by the next person chilled her heart, as long as this misunderstanding is explained clearly, there is no need to care too much." โ
Tan Bixing is the only one in the Tan family who has a clear mind, and he really thought it was Xiuling's clumsy eyes and made a joke by the wrong person, and he didn't suspect his mother and sister at all.
Tan Zheng pinched his beard, his face was very serious, "Although the Xue family has no major problems, he is a low-ranking merchant, competing with the people for profit, and he doesn't care about the reputation of the Fuguo Marquis Mansion at all, this kind of short-sighted woman is not worthy of Qinghe at all, but it is a pity that he has a stubborn temperament and does not listen to persuasion." โ
"Now that the Xue family is pregnant, if we embarrass him again, we will inevitably provoke the righteous brother, so it is better to hold her." When she spoke, Tan Yuanqing was extremely unwilling, she grinded her teeth, obviously hated Xue Su, but there was no way but to force a smile to meet her.
Mrs. Tan could also guess a few points about her daughter's thoughts, patted her hand, and said softly, "There will be a flower-viewing banquet in the princess's mansion in a few days, let's take the Xue family over together, you can say something nice, you know?" โ
Thinking that as the daughter of the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Tan Yuanqing was bored, and he couldn't help himself, but for the sake of the entire Tan family, he could only bow his head slightly.
The princess's mansion in Mrs. Tan's mouth is not the residence of Princess Jinyue, but the mansion of the eldest princess. The eldest princess is the sister of the current saint, her husband died in the early years, and she has been widowed, and she will hold a flower-viewing banquet every once in a while, which is lively and pastime.
Receiving the letter sent by Tan Yuanqing, Xue Su couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, she and this Miss Tan really can't be called a relationship, and it can even be said that they are tired of each other, and now she takes the initiative to contact her, and she doesn't know what she has in mind.
Originally, she planned to find a random excuse and push the matter off, but after thinking about it carefully, Liansheng is not too young, so she has to take it out to walk around, otherwise the delay will be harmful to the little girl.
"Those who went back to Tan's Mansion will meet in the Princess's Mansion in three days." Qiu Ju was instructed and walked out quickly to deliver the letter.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the flower feast, last night Xue Su specially instructed Chunlan to wake her up early, and when she heard the knock on the door, she struggled out of the man's arms with her hands and feet, Chu Qinghe felt shallow, opened her eyes suddenly, and wrapped her long arms around her soft waist to prevent her from moving.
"Early in the morning, don't recruit me." Slurred, he tightened his arms, his thin lips dropping a kiss on his smooth forehead.
Chunlan had already walked into the house with a copper basin and secretly laughed when she saw this scene.
Xue Su was completely awake at this moment, twisting Chu Qinghe's arm vigorously, but this person's muscles and muscles were extremely strong, her tired tiger mouth was sore, and he couldn't feel half of the pain.
"You let go quickly, today I will go out with Liansheng and go to the princess's mansion to enjoy the flowers, if the time is delayed, let Mrs. Tan and Yuan Qingkut wait, how can I have the face to see them again?"
Hearing this, Chu Qinghe finally let go of his hand, his thick black sword eyebrows were tightly twisted, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he said, "It's all autumn, how can there be any flowers to appreciate?" A few chrysanthemums are worth the effort? โ
Xue Su said as he cleaned up, "Where did I go to the princess's mansion to enjoy the flowers?" It's just to join in the fun, I heard that there will be a lot of young talents there, I will help Liansheng take a look at it and find her a good in-law. โ
Chu Qinghe tensed all over his body, and asked in a deep voice, "There are many men at the flower viewing banquet?" โ
"This is nature, who dares not to give face to the eldest princess? However, the autumn is approaching, and there should be a lot of people going to the banquet, if you get the blue eyes of the nobles, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are on a steady journey. โ
Sitting in front of the makeup box, Xue Su did not apply powder, she traced her eyebrows with a snail, and wiped some lipstick, the whole person was like a blooming flower bud, gorgeous and compelling.
