Wei Mengying's delivery date has not yet arrived, but there is good news from the East Palace: Concubine Cui has it!

Concubine Cui is Cui Jianlian, because she is not in the main room, after receiving the decree in March and April, she packed up her things and entered the East Palace within a few days - she has served the prince for less than half a year, and she is pregnant, which cannot help but make people feel that she is deeply blessed.

The crown prince already has two sons and a daughter, but except for the eldest son from the crown princess, the biological mothers of the other two children are very humble. Cui saw that Liangui was a side concubine, and he was his cousin, and now that she was pregnant, the princess wanted to say something: she specially invited a close foreign wife to hold a small banquet in the East Palace to celebrate her.

Although Song Yixiao has not yet been enthroned, he does not mention the identity of the wife of the national prince, and Mrs. Yipin will be sooner or later; Just talking about the intimacy between Jane and the prince, the princess will not forget her.

An invitation was sent to the Yanguo Mansion, which saved Song Yixiao the process of asking to see him.

"I've wanted to meet you for a long time!" Although the crown princess and Wei Yinlian are sisters of the same father and mother, they do not look alike. The latter is the beauty of the apricot-eyed peach cheeks; The crown princess is full of clouds, weak bones and muscles, and she is charming in her beauty.

After exempting Song Yixiao's salute, she gave a seat with a smile, and said in an affectionate tone, "A few days ago, when you entered the palace to thank you, I didn't catch up!" Now that I can see it, my brother and sister are really as beautiful as I thought! ”

"Praise from the mother!" Song Yi smiled and wanted to be humble, "Niang Nianghui has a blue heart, Yan is like Shunhua, and the courtiers are out of reach!" ”

"Cousin Jian has been raised in the palace since he was a child, and he grew up under the watchful eyes of the prince, so don't let me see me!" When the crown princess saw that she called herself a "courtier", she hated her, "Otherwise, I will think that you are not willing to be close to me!" ”

Song Yixiao was about to speak, and walked into a group of people outside the door, wearing a light purple palace costume at the head, not very old, but when he walked, he bent his arm and put the hand of the palace person, his eyebrows and eyes were gorgeous, and his posture was slender, it was Cui Jianlian.

"My sister is here?" Seeing this, the crown princess stopped talking for a while, and greeted with a smile, "Sit down, don't get tired!" ”

Cui saw pity with long eyelashes, still blessed, and said lightly: "Thank you, sister." ”

Although Song Yixiao was not in harmony with her, the name of entering the East Palace this time was to congratulate her on her happiness, and now that the Lord has arrived, she always has to get up and say a few words that are appropriate to the situation: "The courtiers congratulate the side concubine on the joy of pregnancy, and wish the mother Kangtai peace and the heirs!" ”

She speaks in a way that is not hearty; Cui Jianlian played with the porcelain cup in his hand by himself, and his face was expressionless when he listened to it—after listening to it, he sneered without giving face, turned his head to the side, and a string of pearls in his sideburns shook slightly, as if drawing an arc of irony.

Seeing this, Song Yixiao didn't say anything, the crown princess frowned first, and gave Cui Jianlian a vague look. Helplessly, the latter ignored it, the crown princess pursed her lips, and had to come out to round the scene by herself: "Brother and Sister Song's kindness, Sister Cui and I both understand it!" ”

He also said, "Sister Cui has always been silent, don't be surprised by Brother and Sister Song!" ”

"Mother's words are serious." Song Yi smiled lightly, "The side concubine is quiet and beautiful, heartbreaking, where did you mention the word 'strange'?" ”

The crown princess smiled: "I think she is also like a sister." But after such a sentence, he immediately changed the topic, obviously afraid that Cui Jianlian would say something that would make people unable to get off the stage, which would spoil the atmosphere.

Because Cui saw pity, although Song Yixiao had a good conversation with the crown princess, she didn't have a chance to say anything about Jiang Muyao.

After a while, the other guests who received the post arrived one after another, and after saluting and greeting, there were more people around the crown princess, and gradually they couldn't take care of her.

Song Yixiao also happened to take the time to bring tea to moisten her throat - but she didn't finish a cup of tea, but she found that someone not far away was looking at her, and her eyes were very complicated.

"That's Madame Huang, the wife of the prince's guest." Sensing her doubts, the palace maid of the East Palace, who was standing behind her, bowed her head knowingly, and introduced softly, "It's your mother's stepmother's mother." ”

"It turned out to be my grandmother!" Song Yi smiled suddenly, and immediately put the tea bowl to salute.

"I don't deserve it!" Huang knew that he would meet his daughter's stepdaughter when he came over today, but he didn't expect that his cheap grandmother hadn't figured out how to say hello, so Song Yixiao actually came over first - not only that, but she saluted and greeted An on the other wall with an affectionate sentence: "I don't know where my grandmother was slacking off in person, and I ask my grandmother to forgive her sins!" ”

This innocent appearance made Huang's eyelids jump, and then hurriedly helped her up, "The little girl has not fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother over the years, let alone me." It's already extremely guilty to be shouted by you, how dare you accept your courtesy? ”

"Grandmother's words are out!" Song Yi smiled and said respectfully, "I haven't been back to the Song family for all these years for fear of bumping into my grandmother." The grandmother is old, the father is busy with official duties, and the second sister is young, thanks to the mother's handling inside and out, the mother has paid so much for the Song family, as the daughter of the Song family, how can she not regard her as her biological mother? Since you treat your mother as your biological mother, isn't it natural to give you a gift to your grandmother? ”

Then he quipped, "Grandmother shouldn't look at me stupidly and don't want to recognize me as a granddaughter, right?" ”

"It's serious, it's really serious!" Seeing her natural attitude and smile, Huang's mood was too complicated to say, and he took off a jade plate gold flower bracelet on his wrist with a strong smile and put it on her, "I knew that the girl who was personally raised by Princess Wei must be extremely smart and sensible in the eyes of the Queen Mother." But I don't want you to be more atmospheric than I thought! ”

Song Yi didn't shirk his smile, and smiled after accepting the bracelet: "My grandmother loves me, so naturally she looks at me well." ”

The people on the left and right saw this scene in their eyes, and they all praised their ancestors and grandsons - after Song Yixiao returned to his seat, someone who was familiar with the Huang family laughed in a low voice: "When you came, you were worried that this granddaughter was not easy to speak, but now you can be considered relieved?" ”

Don't care what Song Yixiao thinks in her heart, at least she has done a lot of work on the scene.

The situation that the Huang family was worried about not being able to step down did not appear at all, and in the eyes of outsiders, such a result is very good - the so-called grandchildren who are not related by blood and have seen each other for the first time, it is impossible to ask Song Yixiao to rely on and admire the Huang family as Song Yibao, right?

However, Huang smiled and said, "Isn't it? I thought that although I was an ancestor and grandson, I had never met before, so what if the child was born? Now look at her down-and-out and generous appearance, but I sit in the well and watch the sky, and I look down on this child! ”

These words are the last sentence is the most sincere, and when he said it, Huang even unconsciously tightened his sleeves: The girl who is only fourteen years old is so comprehensive, which shows the depth of the city!

Thinking about the grievances she suffered in the Song family back then, in the eyes of the Huang family, this is obviously a master who has become a blockbuster if she doesn't make a noise - let her develop, and one day take revenge, how can her son-in-law's family stop it?

"We must not let her go on like this!" Huang's heart was full of crises, but the corners of his eyes swept over Song Yixiao's dignified appearance, but he felt that he couldn't start, "You have to have an identity, you have to be scheming, and you can bear it so much...... How do you start with such a person? ”

The Huang family was thinking about how to pit her granddaughter here, but Song Yixiao was in a calm mood - she greeted the Huang family in order not to give others a chance to grab the handle, but the scene passed, and the Huang family was left behind by her, but greeted Sikong Yiluo who came to her with a smile: "You came so late today?" I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

"No way, I'm not like you, how close is the Yanguo Mansion to the East Palace?" After the two escaped the summer, they were already very acquainted, so Sikong Yiluo sat next to her and quipped, "I have to come from the far south of the city, is it not too late?" ”

When he said this, his eyes swept up and down at Song Yixiao, as if he was smiling, "Yo! The bride is radiant! I almost didn't dare to recognize it when I looked at it from afar! ”

Song Yi was not ashamed when she heard this, she only smiled: "Don't worry, don't worry, aren't you going to leave the cabinet next month?" ”

"Phew!" Sikong Yiluo teased her, smacked her, and then pinched her pink fist and slapped it on her arm, "Your jade bracelet is very good-looking, is the flower on this plate a peony or a peony?" ”

"It's a peony, isn't it?" Song Yixiao didn't look at it at all, this would be mentioned by Sikong Yiluo, so he looked down and said, "My grandmother just gave it." ”

Sikong Yiluo smiled: "This jade water head is so good, with your grandmother's net worth, I'm afraid it's something at the bottom of the box, so I made a meeting gift for you, but it's generous!" ”

"Stained with the light of my mother's sister - she hasn't grown up yet, and my grandmother can only wear these good things for me first." Song Yi smiled faintly, Sikong Yiluo heard her tone and was reluctant to talk about the Huang family, so she changed the topic and said, "Speaking of which, I have something I want to ask you about!" ”

She lowered her voice, put her head to Song Yixiao's ear, and then asked softly, "What kind of person is the four county lords of Hengshan Palace?" ”

"Why did you ask about her?" Song Yixiao's mind turned, and guessed, "Should it be ......?" ”

"I have a cousin who came to the year of the marriage, and my aunt met the lord of the four counties by chance, and thought that her appearance and temperament were very suitable." Sikong Yiluo didn't hide it, "It's just that you also know that this performance may not be fully believed, and my aunt only has one son from my cousin, so of course you have to be cautious about your only daughter-in-law." I'm afraid that if I welcome someone who comes in the door, won't I be upset when the time comes? ”

This is embarrassing - Song Yixiao's impression of Lu Ko'er is not good, but as soon as she didn't see Sikong Yiluo again, she only knew each other for a few months, and she began to talk about the evil deeds of the daughter of the family who raised her, which was too ruthless and unjust; Second, she doesn't like Lu Ko'er, it doesn't mean that others don't like it either, what if the daughter-in-law that Aunt Sikong Yiluo dreams of is like Lu Ko'er?

So after pondering for a while, he said: "I'm ashamed to say that I am not very familiar with the four county lords. The main reason is that the palace is a big place, we live far away, and it is not very convenient to come and go in ordinary times, and the female school has all kinds of homework, and everyone does not have much free time. I really don't know too much about the situation in the private affairs of the four county lords. ”

Sikong Yiluo was not disappointed when she heard this, and said: "I don't think you and her are very familiar with her, but my aunt knows that I will meet you when I come over today, and I thought that I could inquire about some of them." ”

"By the way, Sister Xie has something to confess and won't come today. But I don't know Sister Wei-" Song Yixiao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her say this, took a sip of tea, and saw the crown princess and Cui Jianlian who were surrounded by the crowd, and groaned, so she asked, "I mean Sister Yinlian, will you come?" ”

Sikong Yiluo was about to answer, but Song Yixiao first felt that someone had patted her on the shoulder, and looked back in surprise, but saw Wei Yinlian, who was in a blue shirt and yellow dress, standing behind him with a smile, and said crisply: "As soon as I came, I heard you mention me, did I catch you saying bad things?" ”

"Yixiao...... Oh, it's time to shout good! She doesn't know how many ways she has thought about Jiang Muyao's things these days! Sikong Yiluo and her are neighbors, and they often meet each other, although they are not particularly close to each other, but they talk casually, and while peeling an orange, they sneered, "This will worry about you and other things?" It's not that I'm talking for Shanyao, that person has been angry for so many days, why should it stop? ”

At the mention of Jiang Muyao, Wei Yinlian frowned, wanted to say something and looked around again, looking inconvenient to mention, only pulled Song Yixiao's sleeve, and said, "Let's find a place to start from the beginning." ”

Song Yi smiled and saw that her attitude did not look like she was biased towards Jiang Muyao, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay! ”
