All the way, so many things happened when I came back. There was no toss between the eighteenth mother and the plum period, and they bathed and changed their clothes early.

Early the next morning, Chang'an was a rare sunny day.

The golden osmanthus flowers fell on the bluestone pavement, like a golden carpet.

Eighteen Niang and Li Ziqi sat in a carriage, brought some Tuyi brought from Songzhou, and brought some medicinal materials unique to the plateau, and returned to Shenfu.

The warm sunlight shone on the vermilion lacquered gate, turning the door from blood to orange, and it didn't look so dazzling.

As soon as the eighteen mothers entered the house, they felt the difference. In this big house, there are many people, but there is no noise.

The little maid in the yard is holding a broom, gently sweeping the fallen leaves in the yard.

The servant woman led Eighteen Niang and Li Ziqi in, "The girl and the aunt are back." ”

Eighteen Niang looked up and saw that Shen Ze was sitting on the table with morning food, it was a good blue stem rice porridge with crispy fried small whitebait, and some pickled radish cherry seeds, but he ate it with relish.

And Kong Jingxian and Cui Fang stood behind them and waited, looking extremely well-behaved.

Seeing Li Ziqi coming in, he glanced at Eighteen Niang reproachfully, "When Ziqi returned to Chang'an at the beginning of the period, he was tired of traveling and driving, and his injuries have not healed, why did you bring him back so early." ”

Eighteen Niang bowed to him with a stalk in her throat, "I thought I was going back to my mother's house, but I don't want this place to be more in-law's house." ”

The ** county lord sitting next to Shen Ze laughed when he heard this, "I heard your father say that the eighteenth mother has a sharp mouth, and when I see it today, it is really so." I'm your father's filler, Li**. If you can change your mouth, you can call me mother, if you can't change your mouth, you can call me ** aunt. ”

Eighteen Niang suddenly had a good impression of her, no wonder Shen Qin was easily convinced by her.

"It's really unspeakable, mother, you look as young as my sister." Eighteen Niang blinked, and asked Nanzhi and Beiliu to put the ceremony aside, "Songzhou is a poor place, there are no rare things, only bring some tuyi, and my mother keeps it to eat fresh, and the reward is also excellent." ”

Eighteen Niang said, peeked at Cui Fang again, and saw that she was honestly standing up and following the rules, and there was no fierce behavior, so she secretly scolded Shen Lang a few words in her heart. This one who has suffered a thousand knives should have a Hedong lion!

Li ** listened to her and didn't squirm, and he was relieved in his heart. What is the status of everyone in the Shen Mansion in Shen Ze's heart, she has already inquired clearly.

Shen Qin can even call her mother for Wu Gui, which is naturally easy to deal with, but Eighteen Niang is different, if she insists on coming, then this stepmother is not good, as long as she can get by on the face, it is excellent.

The mother and daughter glanced at each other and smiled knowingly.

Shen Ze used the meal, and took Li Ziqi to the study. The ladies drank tea in the house.

"Go and call Yu Niang over, Sister Chang is home, how can you not come to see the ceremony. And Jing Xian, go to your house and bring Wan Niang over, the child hasn't seen his aunt yet. Li ** drank tea and ordered leisurely.

Kong Jingxian didn't dare to raise her head, answered "yes", and went back to the yard to pick up the child.

Eighteen Niang looked at it was an eye-opener, where is this still the original smoky and miasma of the Ministry of Shangshufu? Li **'s means are absolutely extraordinary!

This Wan Niang is Kong Jingxian's daughter born to Shen Yu, and the eighteen niang is not interested in their family, and she is merciful if she doesn't cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

"Ah Fang, you can sit down too. Next time, if you bully Ah Lang again, then hit people with a broom, I will have to serve the family law. You're like this, like a shrew, where is like everyone's girlfriend. ”

Take a broom and smoke people......

Eighteen Niang couldn't help but sympathize with Shen Langlai very much, it was really a wicked person who had his own wicked grinding. At the beginning, Cheng Chuying also said that she wanted to beat someone, but after she got married, she obeyed Shen Tingyan, and the husband and wife were simply mixing oil in honey, and they didn't fight at all.

On the contrary, it was Cui Fang, who looked quite beautiful, soft and weak, who turned out to be such a strange woman.

Cui Fang breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the stool unceremoniously, and rubbed her legs.

"Eighteen Niang, you have been on the battlefield, you will definitely not laugh at the vulgarity of women, and I will not pretend to be a lady in front of you. Why should I beat your unsuccessful brother? Before we got married, he was famous, but now that he has married me, he still goes to look for flowers and asks Liu, what is the reason? The smell of rouge and gouache all over my body is almost smoking me to death. Mother, even if you punish me, I will still do it next time. ”

Li ** was angry with her and shook his head.

After a while, Shen Yu and Kong Jingxian both returned.

Eighteen Niang put a long-life lock on Shen Wanniang, looked at her and smiled, and didn't dare to touch it, after all, children are too fragile.

Kong Jingxian smiled at her, "I received Meixian's letter, thanks to your help in Songzhou." ”

Eighteen Niang nodded, and looked at Shen Yu again.

I saw Shen Yu wearing a light pink skirt, dressed simply, and when she saw Eighteen Niang, she glared at her angrily. Li ** looked at it, coughed, and Shen Yu trembled. Immediately saluted respectfully towards Eighteen Niang, "Sister is healthy." ”

Seeing her salute, Li ** waved his hand, "You all go back and rest." Don't forget to copy the Book of Filial Piety. ”

Shen Yu tugged at his fist, let go of his hand again, and respectfully withdrew. Who told her marriage and her future to be in the hands of Li **?

As soon as they left, Li ** sighed, "There are not many people in your Shen Mansion, but everyone is very human." By the way, have you ever offended the Void Female Crown? ”

Eighteen Niang suddenly remembered the pair of eyes she saw in the East Palace, and shook her head uncertainly, "I look at her very familiar, but I can't remember where I saw it." Supposedly, she shouldn't have offended her. ”

Li ** shook his head, "That's weird." The Qingxu Female Crown is now quite popular in Chang'an City, and many noble ladies believe in her. When I was on the clinic, I bumped into her a few times. She said to me openly and secretly, you are a parent, and your life is not good, so I don't like you. ”

The suspicion in Eighteen Niang's heart is even more, this time Li Ziqi was driven out of the Zhenping Palace, she hasn't had time to find out the truth, she only heard that it is a matter of numerology, could it be that this female crown is also a demon in it? If Li ** is an ordinary person, then he will definitely dislike this stepdaughter.

"Thank you for your advice."

Seeing that she was willing to listen, Li **'s face softened a lot: "I received the news." The East Palace will hold a wedding banquet for the emperor's eldest grandson soon, which is neither a full moon nor a year old, and there must be a demon when something goes wrong. I know that you are good friends with Wang Jiu, and now that you are in the limelight in Chang'an, you must be cautious when you go to the East Palace for a banquet, if you can, you are estranged from that Wang Jiu. The building is about to fall, and the matter of your Zhenping Palace's change to the prince is the last straw that crushes the East Palace. ”
