Although in the past, Yang Jue of the Runing Bo family prepared a generous gift to ask Mrs. Zhu of Yangning Hou to guide the maze, but the two families never came too much, and it was later that Mrs. Runingbo wanted to hire Chen's daughter as a wife for her son Yang Ai, so she moved around, and later became a real in-law. But as Chen Lan is concerned, it is the first time for her to come to Runingbo Mansion in Runingbo Hutong, Jincheng, and if it weren't for the fact that she had to meet relatives in the south after getting married, she wouldn't even want to step here for half a step.

At this moment, as Yang Jin entered the house, she was keenly aware that this mansion was not as good as the often renovated Yangning Mansion, although the outermost façade was still bright, but even the current middle road mansion had already revealed a decadence that was difficult to hide. There are many broken places on the bluestone road, and the tiles on the roof of the Yanyan summer rouge red dust in the wing house look at a somewhat uneven scene, and the mother who led the way deliberately straightened her waist, the left one of our Runing Bo Mansion and the right one of our Mrs. How is it, and it is to show off the people who come and go, and to show off how the young masters in the family are fighting, and she feels a sign of lack of confidence.

No wonder the Zhu family once commented that the Runing Bo family is now just a second-rate noble!

Chen Lan originally thought that he should always see the elders in the main hall now, but who expected that the mother who led the way would pass through the door without entering, and took her straight through the door next to her. At this time, she couldn't help but glance at Yang Jinzhou with an inquiring gaze.

"The name of the main hall of Runing Bo Mansion is Fengshu, which is a plaque given by the grandfather in the early years, unless the big day of worshipping ancestors such as the winter solstice on the New Year's Day has never been opened, we are going to Mrs. Tai's Rongshou Hall at this time." The mother was sharp-eyed, and when she saw that Yang Jinzhou seemed to be about to answer, she rushed forward to explain two sentences, and then continued, "At this time, in addition to Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Second, Mrs. Third, Mrs. Fifth, Mrs. Sixth, as well as the second old lady and the fourth old lady of the old lady above, plus all the young masters, grandmothers, and young ladies are all waiting in Rongshoutang. ”

This is nothing more than showing off how big the pomp is at this time, Chen Lan smiled and did not answer. This time, as soon as they went out, there were eight girls standing neatly at the gate of the main house, all of them were dark green armor in green clothes, all of them were solemn as if they were sculptures, all of them lowered their hands and bowed their heads without saying a word, and when she and Yang Jinzhou entered from the door curtain that was raised, they saw that there was also a cough in the lobby, and everyone sat firmly, and their backs were straight one by one.

Only this quiet atmosphere had to be broken by someone, and Mrs. Zheng Shi, who was the first to sit on her right hand, stood up with a smile and said half-truthfully: "The family has been waiting for a long time in the morning, and you are here at this time." ”

Chen Lan instinctively felt that when he stepped into this room, Yang Jinzhou's aura of not entering was more than doubled, and even people seemed to stiffen a little, so he smiled and said, "Second aunt forgiveness, it's really a long delay in the palace." The emperor kept the old man to tell me about business, and a few ladies dragged me to me, and then I had to make a detour to Dongcheng, so the time was delayed. ”

Zheng's is just a saying, everyone knows the palace where Yang Jinzhou and Chen Lan went first, and they all understand that they can't find fault at this time, but Chen Yanyan looked at Chen Lan's red second-grade clothes, and felt that he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, and immediately mocked: "Xi'an Gate is so close to here, but it takes a detour to Dong'an Gate, and the short road is not to take a long road, but I can't see that the smart Haining County Lord is so dull."

"Thank you for the guidance of the second sister-in-law, if you change to a mother, no matter whether Xi'anmen, Dong'anmen, Bei'anmen, it is completely taboo, only one county lord in my district, unless there is an emergency, it is not enough to be qualified to go to Xiwan." Chen Lan blocked this question back with a smile, which not only refuted Chen Bing's provocation, but also said that if there was an emergency, she herself, the county lord, was definitely not a decoration, so at this moment she glanced around at everyone, and saw that some people disdainfully raised or looked away, and some people showed a deliberately flattering smile, she understood in her heart that the Runing Bo Mansion was really not monolithic as she listened, so she smiled apologetically at Zheng again: "But it's really late, if you delay the efforts of the elders and brothers and sisters, I'll pay for it on behalf of the master. ”

After one was hard and one was soft, everyone was no longer picky, and even Chen Bing sat down abruptly after receiving a color from Mrs. Runingbo. Tight Yanyan Summer Rouge Hongchen followed, Chen Lan and Yang Jin Zhou Fang stepped forward to meet the elders in turn. Although this kowtow salute is very complicated and troublesome, and the red envelopes in the hands are also fluttering, and the face of this person holding a puff is also disgusting, but Chen Lan can still be respectful and respectful to Mrs. Chen Yingma and others at home, and she naturally has enough patience to deal with this rare group of people at this time.

When the younger generations met, she spilled out a lot of small purses in one go, but when she gave it, she felt that the final amount was wrong. Just in case, she had already written a list one by one, and even prepared some more, but now there were four little boys who were only one ding old behind her, but there was only one purse she had prepared, and between the lightning and flint, she found that these children ranged from five or six years old to three or four years old, in short, they were a lot smaller than before, and they were all nephews, and she frowned and took it to heart.

Therefore, after a few people kowtowed to her aunt indiscriminately, she smiled and said, "I didn't expect that I would suddenly become an aunt, it's really strange that I'm not used to it." Aunt Yun, did you keep the bag that Concubine De gave her before? ”

Aunt Yun has been in Kunning Palace for many years, what a scheming person she is, she immediately stood up and replied respectfully: "It's the slave and maid who take it." ”

Chen Lan stretched out his hand to take the bag presented by Aunt Yun's hands, and said with a smile: "When I was in Xianyang Palace before, Concubine De Niangniang also said that Runingbo Mansion has a large population and a big business, and if the meeting gifts I bring are small, I am afraid that it will not be enough, so I just stuffed me with a bag of gold and silver bills, saying that there would be one or two more people, but I didn't expect it to be really for Concubine De. ”

She said as she smiled and reached into the bag, and at last each child was a pair of delicately styled golden nudes. Seeing that the faces of many ladies and grandmothers on the seat changed, she knew in her heart that she had played this trick, so she quietly put away the tips, turned around and handed them to Aunt Yun, and then she and Yang Jin went to the two empty chairs over there Yan Yan Summer Rouge Red Dust and sat down. However, the next person to speak was Mrs. Runingbo, and the lady who was sitting on the top kept her eyes half-open and half-closed, as if she didn't care. All she said was high-sounding family affairs, and she just listened to it.

Runingbo's mansion is decayed and red, and the concubines in the family are the most calculating, and when their children returned to their side, they estimated that the value of the silver nude in the purse before and the pair of gold nudes that Chen Lan took out were very different, and someone muttered in a low voice. In the end, there were even two good things to weigh in his hand, so he tasted it even more, and immediately someone didn't care that Mrs. Ru Ningbo was talking, and said in a weird way: "Ouch, third grandmother, how can this meeting gift be thick and thin?" ”

"According to the rules, isn't the meeting gift for the nephews more generous than the meeting gifts for the younger brothers and sisters?" Chen Lan pretended to raise his eyebrows in surprise, his eyes were full of innocence", I always thought this was the truth. ”

"What nephew, these little rabbit cubs are the nephews of the third grandmother!" The difference between two taels of gold and two taels of heels is enough to make the women who value reality the most complain, and immediately the most pungent Huo Ran got up and shouted angrily, "I don't know which wild child with a conscience is pulled from where, and he dares to pretend to be a member of our Runing Yanyan Summer Rouge Red Dust Bo Yang family, this is confusing blood!" ”

was shouted by her like this, and there was an uproar in the hall. Chen Lan coldly watched Mrs. Ru Ningbo stand up and scold and advise, so she looked at Yang Jinzhou, and saw that he happened to look over too, and the smile in her eyes couldn't be hidden, so she blinked her eyes slightly, and then glanced at the copper kettle dripping in the corner of the hall.

"That's it!" Mrs. Tai, who had been silent, finally snorted softly, and saw that everyone was still noisy for a while before it quieted down, and she said lightly, "The bride of Jingyuan came to the door and invited everyone to come, so as to recognize relatives and narrate their feelings, and see what kind of trouble you have become, and any little old child dares to pull here!" There are many people and chaos, and all the children under the age of ten are taken back for placement first, which makes everyone's brain hurt! ”

After saying a few words, seeing a few ladies and grandmothers reluctantly pushing the child out, she looked at Chen Lan: "It's all their Yanyan summer rouge and red dust messing around, don't take it to heart all brother and daughter-in-law." Concubine De Niangniang thought thoughtfully and prepared so many good things, and their shallow eyelids inevitably turned red, and they actually scrambled for it, and there was no reason to lose Concubine De's mind. It's not easy for the mother to be in the palace these years, and she doesn't have any children by her side......"

Hearing Mrs. Tai's words, she pointed out that Concubine De had no children, Chen Lan's eyelids jumped, and he secretly thought that Jiang was still old and spicy. It's just that she was prepared, so she didn't stop Mrs. Tai from playing anything on this topic, and when the other party asked about the situation in Concubine De's palace, she didn't shy away from it.

It wasn't until the crowd, including herself, were hungry, and when someone outside finally asked where to set the meal, a mother suddenly hurried into the house, and was about to sneak behind Mrs. Runingbo, but was stopped by the third lady, who had long been impatient.

"When did our family change the rules, what should be hidden like this!"

When the mother saw that everyone's eyes were focused on herself, she couldn't help but panic, and said directly: "There's news outside...... It is said that the cabinet transferred the emperor's intention to the Ministry of Rites, and it is necessary to choose the auspicious day to register Concubine De Niangniang as the imperial concubine! ”
