Chapter 366: Staying Guests
Xue Hainiang didn't want to get entangled with her own mother on this topic, but the Xu family went deeper and deeper, and now she had already discussed the topic of when she gave birth to Nan Shuke's heir, which really made Xue Hainiang a little panicked.
If the next time she returns home, her mother mentions this topic again, how will she escape from it at that time?
After coaxing her mother to rest assured, Xue Hainiang finished feeding a bowl of medicinal food, sat in front of the collapse, and left only when Xu was asleep, and after all this was done, it seemed to be nearly an hour.
Xue Hainiang walked out of the inner room, and sure enough, she saw Mingxi who was cleaning in the yard, and couldn't help frowning, it stands to reason that Xi is the big girl next to the Xu family, how can Mingxi be allowed to do such rough work?
But in fact, there are not many people around the Xu family who really serve now, and most of the rough maids below are lazy people. Seeing that the Xu family is now not favored, there is no boy under his knees, and the only daughter is also married to the Qinghui Palace, and there were rumors that Xue Hainiang is not favored by the Qinghui King, so he will not sincerely serve the Xu family.
Mingxi saw Xue Hainiang's figure from afar, his face was happy, and he stepped forward to Xue Hainiang like a happy person: "Madame saw you, Miss, but your condition is much better?"
Seeing Mingxi so happy, Xue Hainiang naturally wouldn't lose her interest, and smiled soothingly: "Even if the condition is much better, it should be the credit of your service." After that, Xue Hainiang looked at the outer courtyard again, "Outside is the maid I brought, she is waiting outside now, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay here for too long." She turned her head and looked very reluctantly at the pavilion, where the person she had been thinking of was lying.
"Miss, are you leaving...... Mingxi frowned slightly, as if he was extremely reluctant. "It's not easy for you to come back for such a trip, you married into the Qinghui Palace, and there were rumors at that time, the slave maid has always been afraid that you will be wronged in the palace, but now I see that you are fine, but I am much more relieved. ”
Xue Hainiang bowed her head slightly, and the rumors that came out on the day of her previous wedding really made many people with a heart remember it. Xue Hainiang came here this time because she got rid of Cai Wei, and under the premise that no one knew, she knew that she shouldn't stay here for too long...... Since Mrs. Xue didn't want her to meet with the Xu family, she naturally didn't see it. Otherwise, how to catch Old Madam Xue off guard next?
After instructing Mingxi Haosheng, Xue Hainiang left the courtyard.
As soon as he came out of the courtyard, he saw Ah Ling sitting on the stone steps with a wilted expression, and as soon as he saw Xue Hainiang coming, Ah Ling seemed to come back to his senses in an instant, "Concubine Niangniang, you can be regarded as coming back-"
Xue Hainiang raised her eyebrows and smiled inexplicably, "Let's go, I've been out for so long, my father and grandmother should be in a hurry." ”
Ah Ling didn't care, and muttered: "Why don't you want to think about whether His Royal Highness King Qinghui should be in a hurry, I see that Lord Xue and the old lady are not very enthusiastic about you, I don't think you can go back or not, they don't care at all." ”
Xue Hainiang laughed, and immediately knew that Ah Lingding had failed to understand the 'anxious' in her mouth, but ...... Xue Hainiang couldn't help lowering her eyelids, her eyes were slightly dark, but she automatically blocked the sentence in her words, 'His Royal Highness King Qinghui should be in a hurry'.
When he returned to the conference hall, sure enough, at first glance, he could see the anxious and uneasy look on Mrs. Xue's face, Xue Jingzheng on his side looked at and talked very happily with Nan Shuke, the two pushed the cup and changed the lamp, but it was really a good show of 'filial son-in-law and kind father-in-law', Xue Hainiang raised her eyebrows slightly invisibly, walked in, and gave a salute to the two before saying slowly, "Hainiang has seen His Royal Highness, father and grandmother. ”
Xue Jingzheng waved his hand again and again, looking like a father and daughter, it really made others can't stand clapping when they see it, "Why do you need to be so polite in your own family, Hai Niang, I have to say a word about you for my father, even if you are married, you are still my daughter, don't see you like this in the future." ”
Xue Hainiang shook her head with a smile, "The number of etiquette should still be." ”
When Xue Jingzheng heard this, he smiled with relief, and said to Nan Shuke: "Hai Niang, the etiquette has been very thorough since she was a child, and her grandmother coaxed her to call her grandma before, and she didn't dare to open that mouth for a long time......"
Hearing this, Xue Hainiang sneered in her heart, if it weren't for her careful etiquette since childhood, otherwise she wouldn't know how to be disgusted by Xue Jingzheng. As for the object of her grandmother's coaxing to call her grandmother, it was never her but Xue Qiaoling.
Nan Shuke also smiled lightly as a sign of courtesy.
Old Madam Xue couldn't hold her breath, "Hai Niang, where did you go just now, why did you come back so late?" ”
Xue Hainiang said with a smile: "Grandmother, don't be angry, Hainiang felt that she hadn't been back for a long time, so she couldn't help but take a good look around, and then she ......",
She seemed to be considering her words, and continued, "Just now Hai Niang passed by Aunt Lin's yard, thinking that she hadn't seen her for a long time, she couldn't help but step into Aunt Lin's house to take a look, but this look, I never thought that Aunt Lin still remembered the grievances and grievances when Hai Niang didn't know anything in the past, and she raised her hand to slap Hai Niang, Cai Wei desperately protected it, let Hai Niang go first, and then the two of us separated. ”
Seeing that Mrs. Xue seemed to be slightly pale, Xue Hainiang then said: "I grew up in Xue Mansion since I was a child, in fact, it is okay with or without Cai Wei, but Grandmother Lao is worried, if Grandmother is still angry because of this, it is Hai Niang's fault." ”
Old Madam Xue smiled lovingly, as if she was looking at her precious granddaughter, looked at Xue Hainiang and said: "Even if Xue Mansion is your home, but now you are coming as a concubine of Qinghui Palace, naturally you can't come as nonsense as before, if Your Highness thinks you don't know the etiquette, what if you make your Highness think you don't know the etiquette?"
Nan Shuke didn't accept Old Madam Xue's stubble, but looked at Xue Hainiang with affection and said: "Hai Niang has never had to be so polite and thoughtful in front of this king, and Old Madam Xue doesn't have to worry." ”
Since he said like this, Old Madam Xue naturally didn't dare to have any other opinions, so she could only smile and dare not answer again.
Xue Jingzheng saw that the atmosphere in the council hall was a little weird, and hurriedly interrupted: "I see that it is also the time of Yin, I wonder if the prince and the princess will have dinner in the mansion and rest for one night before returning to the mansion?"
If His Royal Highness King Qinghui can stay in the mansion overnight, it will definitely be more face-saving for the Xue Mansion to spread at that time.
