Chapter 21 Turning Conflict into Friendship
What is the meaning of the peach and plum disputes, and the smoke and frost are divided into walls.
Cinnamon cake fragrant and soft homely things, to turn war into jade silk.
Since traveling to this era, Murong Ningyan has experienced several resurrections, although every time he has turned evil into good fortune, in addition to luck, he also has to rely on his own intelligence and carefulness. Since the day of the fight, the princess found a fake Taoist priest to pretend to be crazy and stupid, and after her plan to get rid of Murong Ningyan failed, she was grounded by the prince, and she was quite honest, and she didn't make any more trouble, and the palace was peaceful for a while.
Seeing that the lockdown period is almost over, I don't know if the two people who were suffocated will repeat their old tricks. Murong Ningyan often thinks that the princess and Murong Ningshuang always want to put Murong Ningyan to death, which is nothing more than jealousy and lack of confidence, for fear that they will fall out of favor in front of their husband and father.
Thinking about it this way, Murong Ningyan not only did not hate their ruthlessness towards himself and his mother at the beginning, but felt that hateful people must also have pity. So, Murong Ningyan had the idea of wanting to improve the relationship with the mother and daughter.
Although it is now autumn, the weather is still hot, and it should be 24 autumn tigers demonstrating to people. The osmanthus trees in the yard have bloomed early, roasted by the sun, and the aroma is stronger, and it is sent into people's noses and lungs with the wind.
When Murong Ningyan smelled the fragrance of the first osmanthus flower, she made up her mind, she sent someone to bring a ladder, and went up the tree with Ning Lu to pick a lot of osmanthus flowers. Then part of it is stuffed into osmanthus nectar and sealed into a jar, and the rest is steamed into osmanthus cake.
The first osmanthus cake to let the mother taste, when the fragrant osmanthus cake was brought into Li's room, Li was immediately blessed by the fragrance, and quickly tasted it, soft and fragrant, sweet and delicious, Li was full of praise: "Yan'er, where did this cake come from?" It's delicious! ”
"Of course Yan'er made it herself? If my mother likes it, I will make more cigarettes for my mother to eat another day. ”
"When will my daughter still have this craft? You're really impressing me more and more. ”
"Mother, this is the first time I have made Yan'er, I just like the aroma of osmanthus flowers, and I thought that if I put it in the pastry, it should taste good. By the way, mother, I want to send some to the princess and Murong Ningshuang, do you think they will accept it? ”
"The hearts of men are flesh and blood, and if you give them a cause, they will return to you. Plant melons and get melons, plant beans and get beans. In Buddhism, anything can be a cause or an effect, there is no absolute cause and there is no absolute effect. Just like there is no love for no reason in the world, and there is no hate for no reason. Yan'er, you don't remember the past suspicions, my mother is happy for you! Send it, after that incident, the princess should have figured out some things. ”
Murong Ningyan nodded with a smile, picked up a plate of osmanthus cake and said, "Mother, send the smoke to the princess while it's hot!" ”
"Go ahead!" Li cast an approving glance at Murong Ningyan's back.
At the door of Fuxi Pavilion, Murong Ningyan explained his intention, and Yahuan said that she was going to Princess Ming and asked her to wait outside the door.
After Yahuan explained Murong Ningyan's intention to the princess. The princess asked Murong Ningshuang nervously, "What is she here for?" How could you be kind enough to give us pastries to eat? ”
"Mother, let's take a look first, that girl is so smart, she must not dare to blatantly do things like poisoning!"
"You're right, let's wait and see." The princess turned to Yahuan and said, "Qiu Ping, let her in!" ”
Qiu Ping opened the door and saw Murong Ningyan standing outside the door, and the princess pretended to be humble and said, "Yan'er, why did you think of coming to see me, a sinner?" Come in, come in! ”
"Mother, Yan'er saw that the osmanthus flowers on the tree were blooming, and they smelled very good, so she made some osmanthus cakes, and my mother tasted it and thought it was good, and ordered me to send some to my mother and sister to taste, and I don't know if it suits your appetite?"
The princess was about to speak, Murong Ningshuang tugged at the princess's sleeve, her eyes rolled a few times, and she thought: Stay for a while to find a cat or something to try poisoning first, so she preemptively said: "It looks good, it smells very fragrant, but my mother and I just had dinner, I can't eat it at this time, I'll eat it later, thank you sister for your kindness!" ”
As he spoke, he took a plate of osmanthus cake from Murong Ningyan's hand and put it on the table.
Murong Ningyan walked to the table uninvited, and directly picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and threw it into his mouth.
"Who doesn't know with your mouth? I just put the chopsticks and can eat a big bowl. ”
When the princess saw Murong Ningyan taking the lead in eating, she knew that this girl was very smart, and she must have seen that Murong Ningshuang was worried about whether it was poisonous, so she quickly pretended to blame Murong Ningshuang.
"It's okay, my sister will eat the same in a while!" Murong Ningyan replied as he ate the pastry, but the aroma filled the entire room.
The aroma suddenly aroused the slander worm in someone's stomach, and Murong Ningshuang couldn't help but move, and also picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.
"Uh-huh, well, delicious! Mother, try it, it's really delicious, it's so fragrant! Sister Ningyan, you said you made it yourself? While eating, he nodded again and again and praised the deliciousness.
The princess cocked her orchid finger and picked up a piece, but she only took a small bite and put it in her mouth, paused for a moment and her eyes suddenly brightened, and then she took another bite and said, "Don't say it, it's really delicious!" Sweet and refreshing, sweet but not greasy, do you still have this ability? Where did you learn it? I have been a princess for more than ten years, and I have never eaten such delicious dim sum. ”
"Back to the mother's concubine, Yan'er is also the first time to do it today, I didn't expect the taste to be okay, today is just an experiment, I didn't do much, while there are still a lot of flowers on this tree, I'll make more another day, and then send it to the eldest mother and sister."
"Okay, this must be hard to do, right?"
"It's not complicated at all, if my sister is willing, how about doing it with Yan'er tomorrow morning?"
"Early in the morning? It's so hot every day, so you can sleep comfortably in the morning. When Murong Ningshuang heard that it was morning, she said with a displeased face.
"Shuang'er, it won't be good if you don't sleep for a day, tomorrow morning my mother will accompany you."
"Okay, that Yan'er will wait for the eldest mother and sister under the osmanthus tree in the yard tomorrow morning."
"Well, that's it."
Murong Ningyan thought to herself: In fact, the princess and Murong Ningshuang are still quite beautiful when they smile.
Murong Ning returned to the Li family's room with a spring breeze on his face, and the Li family knew that the other party accepted it when he saw it.
"How? The princess accepted? Didn't bother you, did you? ”
"No, the mother and daughter both said it was delicious after eating, and promised to pick osmanthus flowers with me early tomorrow morning to make osmanthus cakes!"
Li Shi put his arm around Murong Ningyan's shoulder and said softly: "It has been my long-cherished wish for many years to be able to turn war with them and have a happy family, and my cigarettes are awesome!" ”
In the Fuxi Pavilion, the princess looked at Murong Ningshuang, who was still eating osmanthus cake: "Shuang'er, I just want to wait and see what happens, why did you eat it directly?" ”
"Mother, she is obviously here to slap us, and now my father is much colder to our mother and daughter than before, why don't we take advantage of her to show us favor and take the opportunity to save our position in my father's heart?"
"Shuang'er is right, if she takes the initiative to show goodwill, we don't accept it, it will seem that we are stingy, let's do this today, at least let her let down her guard against us."
"I don't believe that if we treat her like that, she will be really good to us?"
"Whether it's true or false, let's see, at least now we have to erase the bad image in front of your father, tomorrow happens to be your father's holiday, behave well."
"Well, Shuang'er listens to her mother, but Ningyan's girl seems to be much more shrewd than before, and she actually asked her father to remove the maid ring in her room, we will really not be able to do it in the future."
"It's still the same sentence, wait and see!"
Through a series of things that happened before, there was no doubt that there were ghosts hidden in the Ning Xiang Pavilion, so after the truth was revealed that day, Murong Ningyan took the initiative to ask the prince to remove the extra maid ring, saying that he had a daughter's family, and his hands and feet were dexterous, and he didn't need so many people to wait, and the extra people were sent to do something else.
In fact, the prince also knew that the reason why there was such a big farce at that time was only because the princess had ears and eyes in the smoke room, and since Ning Yan was so smart and had already seen through it, he readily agreed, let it be withdrawn!
Now in addition to the condensation, only Xiangya is left to take care of Murong Ningyan together, and this Xiangya has served Murong Ningyan with Liu Wuer since she was a child, and she has a docile temperament, and she knows the roots.
When Murong Ningyan told Ning Lu what happened in the princess's house, Ning Lu said: "Yan'er, it's not that my sister is not kind-hearted, judging from my understanding of their mother and daughter for so many years, I always feel that their mother and son are not so simple people, anyway, Yan'er still has to pay more attention to everything in the future, we can't eat their losses anymore." ”
"Sister, I understand this, eat a trench, grow a wisdom! Thanks to my sister every time! ”
"How can I remind anything?"
"If there were eyes and ears in the room before, wasn't it also my sister's reminder, and Yan'er only paid attention! Therefore, my sister Ning Lu is a precious dewdrop, and the smoke must be treasured by your side. ”
"That's what you said, don't leave me when you marry in the future."
"With such a good person as my sister by your side, what else do you marry, don't marry or don't marry!"
"Okay, I want to see it, now someone is going to die of sadness, and I see that my beloved can't marry."
"Sister is talking nonsense, be careful that the wall has ears." Murong Ningyan's face turned crimson, and in order to hide his mood, he hurriedly interrupted: "Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is about to be celebrated, I don't know if my brother can come back?" ”
Who knew that this condensation looked at her cute appearance, so she continued to quip: "Yan'er misses her brother is fake, and it is true that she misses Xiao Gongzi!" ”
Thinking about being guessed, Murong Ningyan replied shyly and pretended to want to get the needle: "Look at your nonsense, beware of Yan'er using an embroidery needle to embroider a flower on my sister's mouth." ”
The two sisters laughed and played for a while, and Ning Lu saw that Murong Ningyan closed her eyes and stopped talking, thinking that she was asleep, so she also fell asleep.
However, Murong Ningyan was actually pretending to be asleep, or did Ninglu understand herself, how could the heartstrings that were touched calm down?
The autumn cold is light, and the scattered season is like rain. The wind sends the fragrance vaguely, and then when will you read the flowers? unbearable and sad, secretly wiping tears.
Looking up at the crescent moon in the ditch, where is Xiao Lang tonight? There is no loneliness in the palace for the time being, and there is a new topic for the good story. Tonight, the cinnamon honey is brewed, and the acacia is sent to the moon.
Early the next morning, Li took Murong Ningyan and Ninglu to the osmanthus tree, and moved ladders, chairs, and large and small pots under the tree, but did not see the princess, mother and daughter.
Will the princess and Murong Ningshuang really come to pick flowers and make snacks together?
