"Girl," Shi Lu walked to Luo Qingrong's side and whispered, "Madame has been running around again these days, and I heard from the coachman that Madame has changed her clothes from time to time and sat in the restaurant and tea shop. ”

She wants to listen to the news, Luo Qingrong put down the book in her hand, this Zhang Lan refused to stop her thoughts no matter what she said, but she was limited by her identity, and she couldn't come forward in many things.

"Let's go, let's go see Brother Yang," Luo Qingrong changed his clothes and picked out a light yarn hand-painted gardenia fan in his hand, "Sister An'er hasn't been here these days?" Didn't her mother promise to tell her a good family? "This Luo Ming'an is also a character, she simply regards herself as Zhang Lan's daughter, to be precise, she is a personal girl, especially after Luo Xuyang was born, she was directly upgraded to a nanny, which can be seen from the tutor in Tiexiang. And Zhang Lan seems to like a little girl by her side, she was her in her previous life, and she is Luo Ming'an in this life.

"Miss An is here today, it seems that she went out with her wife," this stone green is not silent, and the big and small affairs of the half of the mansion are in her heart, "I heard that Mrs. has taken a fancy to the youngest son of the Du family and wants to arrange for Miss An to meet her!" ”

Arrange a meeting for two? Does this Zhang Lan really dare to do anything? How's it going? The Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion is expanded again, and it is possible to marry Luo Sujuan, but Luo Ming'an? How dare she think about it!? "Do you know when Madame is going to be?"

"The slave maid went to inquire," Shi Lu really didn't take this seriously, but seeing that Luo Qingrong's face changed, he also realized the seriousness of the matter, and was ready to ask Jin Feng immediately.

"You don't have to worry, it is estimated that it is going to be placed in our mansion when the Spring Festival banquet," Luo Qingrong said thoughtfully, "In this way, whether this matter is true or not, you will let people give Aunt Luo a blow," If the Yang family is a successful person, naturally there is no need to do anything by himself, and this matter will be stopped.

"Girl, second girl," as soon as the rich mother entered the gate of Chonghua Courtyard, she couldn't help but raise her voice.

"What's going on? Mom likes to be like this? Luo Qingrong was surprised, the rich mother is an old mother who has accumulated years, and it is not like her to do such a thing that does not understand the rules.

"The girl is about to go to Qingtaiyuan, there is a letter from Shanhaiguan," the rich mother patted her thigh, "I heard the girl from Zili say, it seems that the Gao family is going back to Beijing~"

Is your uncle going back to Beijing? Luo Qingrong pursed his lips and smiled, "Let's go to grandmother." "It should be that my aunt Yu brought her two sisters Gao Xueying and Gao Xueshan back, and in her memory, there were also aunts and cousins Guo Nianlun.

"Look, isn't this coming," Old Madam Luo was obviously in a good mood, and Luo Qingrong, who had been walking in lotus, said to an old mother who was sitting obliquely in front of her, "This is my hard-working granddaughter, who is now twelve." ”

"The old slave Gao Aishi kowtowed to the girl," the old mother didn't say much, and got up and went to Luo Qingrong to bow down.

Luo Qingrong let her really kowtow to herself, hurriedly stopped her and sent her to the round stool, and said half-blessedly, "Qingrong has seen Mama." ”

Seeing that Gao Ai was about to get up again, Mrs. Luo waved her hand and said, "You are a useful person next to the British Duchess, and you can afford her courtesy," and said and introduced to Luo Qingrong, "This is your aunt's side of Grandma Ai, this time your aunt specially sent her to report to us, and your aunt and uncle will arrive in Beijing in a few days." ”

is the person next to his aunt, Luo Qingrong was not close to the Gao family in his previous life, and he didn't have much impression of this Mama Ai, so he still said with a smile, "I don't know when my aunt will arrive in Beijing, so I will go to Moli Pavilion to pick it up when the time comes, and I will see my aunt and sisters earlier." ”

In the end, it is still her mother's uncle, Luo Qingrong's attitude makes Mama Ai very satisfied, to be exact, Luo Qingrong has been very satisfied with the attitude on the surface from the time she came in to the present, and she can't help but sigh that the capital is at the foot of the world, and she can't compare with her own side, and this cousin's dress and intimate attitude with Mrs. Luo are obviously also pampered at home, and the original hanging heart can be regarded as completely down.

"Back to the girl's words, I also followed my son to hurry for a few days, I think that the lady and the girls will not take half a moon to arrive, my wife said, the old lady is old, the girl is young, it is inconvenient to work, and after returning to Beijing to settle down, I will ask the house to sit down, "Ai Mama is a big voice, although she is old, she can speak with full of energy, "I also want to tell the girl a good news, our second aunt and grandmother will arrive in Beijing soon, but the distance is different, and it will be later." ”

The second aunt and grandmother of the British Mansion refer to Luo Qingrong's aunt, Gao Ruzhen, who married into the Tianshui Guo family, although she already knew that her aunt was coming, but when she really heard it, Luo Qingrong was still very happy, after all, the arrival of these two families made her have many more blood relatives, "Grandmother, my aunt doesn't have a house in the capital, so it's better to live in our house~" Luo Qingrong looked at Mrs. Luo.

The Gao family is a serious in-law, even the current Zhang Lanna is a place to retreat, "Of course, according to me, I am afraid that your British Mansion has not lived in it for many years, and the wife of the in-laws has just arrived in the capital, and the house over there is afraid that it will have to be cleaned up, so it is better to live here, everyone is lively, and it is good to kiss and kiss." ”

In fact, this is what the Yu family meant when they asked Mama Ai to come over, after all, the Gao family has withdrawn from the social circle in the capital for many years, and unlike the Luo family, although the men have been outside, the women are all in the capital, and she also needs the Luo family's recommendation this time, especially when the Yu family wants to find a good family for their two daughters in the capital.

"There is one more thing," Mama Ai hesitated for a moment, and saluted Mrs. Luo, "My wife wants to ask the old lady to help keep an eye and ask an aunt in the palace to teach the two sisters in the family the rules," this is the highlight of Mama Ai, she couldn't help explaining, "I'm not afraid of the old lady's jokes, my wife is planning to find a proper home for the two sisters in the capital, but the Gao family has been away from the capital for so long, I'm really afraid that there will be any mistakes in the rules~"

Mrs. Luo and her granddaughter exchanged glances, the Gao family is far away from Beijing, but the basic rules of a century-old family are very wrong, not to mention that even if it is far away from the capital, according to the status of the British government, it is not difficult to invite a palace person from the capital to tell the old, and the British duchess is planning this before entering Beijing, the purpose is only afraid that it is not so simple, "This is easy, I still have a little thin face in the palace," Mrs. Luo agreed.

"Grandmother, it's better to let Aunt Lan go over," Luo Qingrong's heart moved, she understood Yu's psychology very well, her cousin Gao Xueying was a rare beauty, and when she entered Beijing at this time, what she did could be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, "It also saves the newcomers invited from the palace from not understanding our temperament." "Aunt Lan is watching, and the cousin who is more domineering than the princess is also less troublesome.

"Well, what Qingrong said is good," Old Madam Luo said.

With the consent of her grandmother, Luo Qingrong told Aunt Lan about Aunt Lan's situation in detail, I heard that this is a palace person who is the seventh grade, and Mama Ai is already a little satisfied, not to mention that she still taught Luo Qingrong and Zhang Lan, of course, she still used the excuse that the master was not there, and she didn't make the decision on her own, and dragged it down.

Zhang Lan held the tea bowl quietly, as if she couldn't feel the scrutiny of Mama Ai on the other side, she has been through the wind and frost in the past three or four years, so she learned the so-called rules from Aunt Lan ruthlessly, and gradually she is no longer the object of ridicule in the circle of noblewomen, "Since my mother has spoken, please ask the British Duchess to live in Donglai Courtyard, where the place is bright and it is easier to enter and exit." ”

The mother's family of her husband's ex-wife came to live in her own house unceremoniously, and she had to entertain as a serious relative, Zhang Lan was unspeakably unhappy, but she was no longer the Wuxia Ameng of the year, and still smiled and said, "My sister Rong is also old, and she has been in charge of family affairs for two years before, and the reception of Mrs. Gao will be handed over to Qingrong," This kind of work is not good, she will do it if she is stupid."

"Yes, mother," Luo Qingrong didn't intend to let Zhang Lan interfere at all, "I'll let Cinnabar get the right card in a while," no matter what she thinks, her mother is Wu Anhou's wife, and her uncle's family, Zhang Lan only has respect for reason.

"Our little ancestor is really not ambiguous," Su's mother came in from the outside, pouted, "I followed Cinnabar to open the inner library, that thing is not from my own home, the river water is pulled out, the original furnishings of the Donglai Courtyard are not the same, the window screen and curtain are redone, and she is not afraid of the people in the needlework room!" ”

"In the end, it's someone from someone's uncle's family, there is a way to be a mother's uncle, a mother's uncle," Lin's mother, who accompanied Zhang Lan to reconcile the accounts, chuckled, "Madam, don't blame the slave for speaking straight, our second girl," she sighed and shook her head, "Seeing your kindness, Madame, you are also a fool." ”

Hmph, she is just too fine, Zhang Lan waved her hand, "The second girl can't take care of me as a stepmother, and I don't worry about it, she can let her do whatever she wants." ”

"What do you mean by 'you are a stepmother'?" Luo Yuanpeng heard in the yamen that it was from the Gao family, so he came back early, and when he entered the door, he heard Zhang Lan's words, "Where is it inappropriate to do lightly, you just say that she is, why do you make such a strange noise?" ”

Mother Lin and Mother Su looked at each other, saluted and quietly withdrew.

"Am I just a 'stepmother'? I want to raise her as my own daughter, but people have to look up to my background," Zhang Lan complained for a few sentences before saying, "I really like to be light, but she has always been wary of me, this time Mrs. Gao is here, as long as she can be happier to see her uncle's family." ”

"I just want to tell you this," Luo Yuanpeng sat on the kang, "Uncle and brother of the Gao family have a great favor with me, and they are close relatives of flesh and blood, this time my uncle and wife brought my daughter over, you have to treat yourself well, don't be slow, and listen to Gao Deyong, you have to find someone to clean up the house of Runyufang, where do the uncles and their group of women understand this?" You have invited our usual craftsmen and arranged for them to come over and pick them up according to their wishes. ”

I'm going to take care of this? Zhang Lan was a little dissatisfied, "Since you are coming to the capital, shouldn't you send your family back to clean up the mansion in advance?" At this time, people are coming, and the house is nothing~"

"I think it's something delayed," Luo Yuanpeng didn't care, he was the same as the British Gong Gao Changsong, he was a military general, where would he pay attention to these trivial matters, "Aren't we in the capital?" The family is so big, don't say that it is just for a while, even if it is for a few years, there is nothing. ”

That's why do you think you have to take care of your husband's ex-wife's family for a few years? Zhang Lan rolled her eyes in her heart, she was going to leave anyway, and she didn't have to take it seriously, "I know, Qingrong is already busy, but now she has a support, she is like this, I don't know how mean my stepmother is." ”

"You, it's just that there are a lot of things, Mrs. Gao is here, can you be unhappy with your appearance? What's more, there are two more sisters, according to me, Mrs. Gao should bring her two nephews over, I heard that they are all Junjie of Yunwen and Yunwu. Luo Yuanpeng wiped his beard, deeply regretting that he couldn't see his two nephews, "Even if it's Xuchu, it's a good thing to meet your cousins." ”

Also cousin, Zhang Lan is really speechless about the algorithm of ancient relatives, these people have a Mao relationship with Luo Xuchu? "yes, it's a pity I didn't come, I want to see it too."
