Chapter 95

Xu is because Shanniang's sharp teeth and sharp mouth, but no one takes the initiative to provoke their mother and daughter after that.

After the banquet, Shanniang followed the fifth wife into the banquet. At the same table, there is also the eldest lady with Qi Niang, and the eldest grandmother with the eldest sister - they all happen to be from the same line.

After the New Year, Qi Niang will be seventeen years old, because the marriage with the Liu family, the second assistant of the capital, is scheduled for March of the following year, and now she has already been taken out of the West Garden by the eldest wife.

As soon as Shanniang sat down here, Qi Niang came up to her and smiled: "Five-kernel stuffed moon cakes." You can figure it out! Now that you have more and more doorkeepers, haven't you seen the old lady so angry that her face has changed color? ”

"So what?" Shanniang smiled nonchalantly, "I'm already sold, and she doesn't care whether it's good or bad." ”

Qi Niang suddenly glanced at her, paused, and then smiled: "You can still understand." ”

"Actually, you know it in your heart." Shanniang said.

Indeed, none of the girls in the West Garden are stupid, but because the interests of the people are the same, everyone is decent to each other and not picky.

Qi Niang raised her wine glass, clinked glasses with Shanniang, and sneered: "Who said it was sold?" You and I haven't reached the last step yet, and this deal can be canceled at any time. ”

Although the Hou family once attacked the fifth marquis, now there is only one of Qi Niang's fathers, the eldest master, who is an official in the court, and he is only a five-grade official position. Now that the eldest master is over forty years old, if there is no more inch, I am afraid that he will be in the fifth grade in this life. The old lady tried to push the eldest master further, so she forced the relationship to marry Qi Niang into the second auxiliary family, and then used Shan Niang's marriage to hook up with the palace. I thought that the front square shì was a good thing, but I didn't want to make waves on it in a blink of an eye, and the first assistant who was attached to the four princes was held accountable for corruption and bribery, and the second assistant was also implicated, and was ordered to think about it at home behind closed doors and wait for the holy judgment - it can be said that in Qi Niang's marriage, the old lady did a loss-making business. If it weren't for the old lady's good face, maybe this would really be as Qi Niang said, "cancel the transaction".

Shanniang is the daughter of the boudoir, and she knows very little about the political affairs of the imperial court. But even so, she at least knew that while the one above was still in power, the position of the one in the palace had been very stable. Let's take a step back, even if it is unstable, Yuan Changqing is an abandoned son thrown by the Yuan family, that is, the old lady wants to "cancel the transaction", and the Yuan family is afraid that it will only value this family more because of this...... Shanniang had mixed feelings for a while, and she didn't know whether to feel good or regretful......

"Alas," Qi Niang sighed again, took the flask and poured a new glass of wine, "but our wife's eyes are swollen with crying." ”

Shanniang looked up at the eldest lady. Seeing that although she was smiling, the powder on her face was obviously three points thicker than before, and she couldn't help but sigh. No wonder this year's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is not led by the eldest wife, I am afraid that the eldest lady is also very entangled in her heart at this time, on the one hand, her husband's career, and on the other hand, her daughter's happiness......

When she was distracted here, Qi Niang had already poured several glasses of stuffy wine there. Shanniang reached out and took away her wine glass and asked, "Are you afraid that the old lady will regret her marriage, or are you looking forward to the old lady's regret of marriage?" ”

Qi Niang frowned, and said horizontally to her: "A good girl will not marry!" ”

Shanniang blinked in surprise. She couldn't have imagined that Qi Niang, who originally intended to ruin her relatives and marry Yuan Changqing for a possible title, was now suddenly willing to marry Liu Chang, who was only a famous person in the second auxiliary family.

She put Qi Niang's wine glass out of her reach, and persuaded Qi Niang: "Then you should relax even more." Now that the two of you have even invited the marriage date, if you change your mind at this time, you will definitely not be able to escape the reputation of a 'regretful marriage'. An old lady with such a good face is afraid that she will not bear this kind of notoriety. Besides, the Holy Judge hasn't come down yet, who can say that your father-in-law will definitely have something? With the old lady's temperament, it is even more impossible to do such superfluous things at such a time. ”

"But what if the saint decides? Not to mention our lord......"

Shanniang was silent. Unlike the fifth master, the eldest master has always been a "motivated" person with "pursuit".

"I don't think your dad will overdo it. I've heard that what the adults in the DPRK and China look down on the most is this kind of in-laws who have trouble at home, and they rush to clear up the relationship before they have anything to do. If the eldest master really did that, he would really lose his reputation. Shanniang said.

Qi Niang lowered her eyes and thought about it, and suddenly raised her eyes and said, "You have a point!" I know how to persuade the master. ”

Seeing that she finally cheered up, Shanniang smiled, and then was curious, and asked Qiniang, "Didn't you want to before?" ”

Qi Niang's face turned red, she looked around weakly, and leaned into Shanniang's ear and whispered: "I sue you, don't sue sù people again." We write a lot. ”

"Yo." Shanniang laughed, "Seventh Sister is also unruly. ”

It is easy for men and women to interact alone behind their backs, not to mention secretly fish and geese. It is a young couple who have already been engaged, which is still taboo.

The girls in the West Garden have always been first-class in their ability to pretend to be first-class, and the Seventh Girl is not really honest. She touched Shanniang with her leg and said with a smile: "Don't pretend to be like you have too many rules with me!" It's really a rule, who picked you up your broken leg?! ”

After Shanniang's accident, the fifth master and the Hou family all unified their voices, and only said that the family had seen through the gangster's tricks one step earlier, and the thirteen girls' legs fell from the carriage and broke when they escaped. But others don't know the inside story, as the daughter of the future patriarch of the Hou family, the pearl of the old lady in the West Garden, this inside story can't hide from Qi Niang, not to mention that there is Yuan Changqing's marriage proposal later.

And if Qi Niang wants to make Thirteen blush, it is not so easy. Shanniang said generously: "The matter is urgent." ”

"You ghost!" The seventh girl smiled and twisted Shanniang, stood up and snatched back her wine glass, filled the wine for the two again, looked at Shanniang and said, "Do you know what everyone is talking about you now?" It's said that you're afraid you're going to become an 'Iron Kidnapper Immortal' from now on." Are you afraid? She asked.

"What am I afraid of?" Shanniang and Qi Niang clinked their glasses and said with a smile: "The goods have been sold, and they will not be returned." ”

"Here we go again!" Qi Niang smiled, "Didn't I tell you just now, we can only be regarded as being ordered out, not sold." And it is sold, if the buyer is asked to pick out the defects, it is not to say that the return will be returned! And," she lowered her eyes to Shanniang's legs, "everyone else is saying that you are already a defective product, that is, the buyer is reluctant to give up the deal, and if you don't return it, you must at least exchange it." ”

"If it's Yuan Er, it's possible. Yuan Da, by no means. Shanniang said.

Qi Niang looked at her and smiled: "You have so much confidence in Yuan Da? ”

"Confidence ......" Shanniang swallowed an ugly word, tilted her head and looked at Qi Niang and said, "I'm strange, don't you even see it?" What kind of family is the Yuan family? What kind of family is our family? It's that the old lady always thinks that our family is still the same as before, but it is already different. It is said that 'a high family marries a woman and a low family marries a woman', our family knows that we want to climb the high branches of their family, don't they want to climb the higher high branches? Why did they all decide that their family had to marry our family? ”

Qi Niang smiled: "Didn't the old lady of the Yuan family say it? Sisterhood has been around for many years, and this is to fulfill the agreement between her and our old lady! ”

"!" Shanniang didn't hold back, but still called that indecent word popped out, "If that's the case, why didn't she take her own grandson out to get married, and just throw out Yuan Da?" To put it bluntly, Yuan Da is just a piece of goods that has been traded, I'm afraid that the old lady of the Yuan family wishes that I was a 'defective product' at this time to her liking! ”

Qi Niang was stunned and said in surprise: "No! I think she treats Yuan Changqing more attentively than she treats Brother Xing'er, picking the best teacher and sending him to the best academy, and the old lady keeps talking about Yuan Da's life, saying that their family will count on him in the future! Even our wife said that the old lady really treated Yuan Da as her own grandson! But Qi Niang didn't know that whether it was a teacher or a college, it was actually Yuan Changqing's own painstaking calculations.

Shan Niang glanced at her, leaned over and whispered, "You try to replace Old Lady Yuan with our old lady?" ”

Qi Niang was silent for a moment. Like Shanniang, she was raised by the old lady since she was a child, and those methods were not used by herself, at least she knew it. And the reason why she didn't suspect it before was because the old lady of the Yuan family was completely different from the old lady of theirs......

The old lady of their family is pretending to be kind, and she can still make people feel the majesty of being a family member in her. The old lady of the Yuan family is from the stepfamily, and she doesn't look like the domineering of the old lady of their family, so the soft friendliness she expresses is naturally more credible and confusing than what the old lady of her family says...... What's more, over the years, the government and the opposition have already spread the name of Mrs. Yuan's love for Yuan Changqing as "her own child".

"It turns out that this family business is not as glamorous as it looks on the surface." Qi Niang sighed, "No wonder Fifth Uncle has always disagreed." ”

Shanniang was silent. When she came down from the mountain, she only said "no marriage", and her father agreed to her without hesitation. At that time, she was so upset that she forgot to ask the fifth master a "why". And if it weren't for the fact that things became more and more out of control, I'm afraid her father wouldn't have agreed until now...... Just like he was so adamantly opposed in his previous life......

I only heard Qi Niang sigh and say quietly: "People like us, if they marry low, the family refuses, and if they marry high, they suffer again." You are a step-grandmother, even if you are married, it is not good to be in charge of you, I am close here, I am afraid that my future life will be more difficult than yours. ”

Qi Niang is going to marry a grandson, and she is still the youngest grandson, not to mention the brothers above, this marriage is still the second assistant lady and her future mother-in-law, Qi Niang's mother-in-law is actually not very satisfied with her.

"That Liu Chang, is it good for you?" Shanniang asked.

"So be it." Qi Niang pouted and said, the corners of her lips that couldn't help but turn up, but it was obvious at a glance that the relationship between the two should be good.

Thinking like this, Shanniang couldn't help but feel a sense of loss. In her previous life, she closed her eyes and pursued the kind of feelings described in the book, but the result was nothing more than a flower in the water. In this life, whether she was bitten by a snake once, or whether she has passed the age of believing in dreams, she doesn't expect that kind of thing anymore, she only hopes that she and Yuan Changqing can go to the end of their lives peacefully, don't be like the previous life, she chased desperately, he desperately escaped, everyone is just so calm and well......

"Seventh sister, thirteenth sister." Suddenly, Eleven Niang came over and beckoned the two of them: "I've been watching you two over there for a long time, don't patronize and drink, beware of getting drunk." Although this mead wine is delicious, it is also very intoxicating. ”

After Qi Niang moved out of the West Garden, there was only one girl in the West Garden for the time being. Today's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was prepared by Eleven Niang with the assistance of the second wife.

As for the fourteenth mother who wants to move into the West Garden, it seems that so far, she has still failed to achieve her goal - this is also a change that is different from her previous life. In the previous life, after Qi Niang moved out, Fourteen Niang moved in.

"What about the fourteenth sister?" Shanniang asked.

Eleven Niang's eyes flashed, and she blurted out, "What are you asking her to do?" She was embarrassed for a moment, and hurriedly smiled in disguise: "I just saw her near here, I'm afraid I'm looking for someone to fight for wine." ”

After a few words of greeting with Shanniang and Qi Niang, she found an excuse and walked away.

Without waiting for her to go far, Qi Niang pulled Shan Niang's sleeve and smiled: "Yes, what are you asking Fourteen to do?!" And he said, "Now that Fourteen mentioned you, you will gnash your teeth." I heard that the old lady showed her a mouth before, saying that she was going to give her this family affair, and asked you to insert a lever. But now you're still asking her in public like a nobody. That girl has never had any rules, but you can beware of her messing with you in public, that's why it's called faceless! ”

Shanniang was stunned. She had forgotten about it for a moment.

Qi Niang glanced back at Eleven Niang who was walking away, and suddenly pulled Shan Niang's sleeve again, and whispered: "Also, do you know who fanned the flames behind those words passed down in the previous school?" She took the corner of her mouth and smacked in the direction of Eleven Niang, "That one, I'm afraid that I hate you more than Fourteen, I heard that the old lady of the Yuan family took a fancy to her." ”

Shanniang couldn't help but be depressed for a while, picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then put down the wine glass vigorously, and said, "What's wrong with everyone being blind?!" It's a good family affair! Whoever wants it, take it! ”

Suddenly, Qi Niang pulled Shanniang hard.

Shan Niang raised her eyes, and saw that led by her lobby brother, the young masters of the Hou family's jade generation, including Yuan Changqing, the aunts and prospective aunts of the younger generation, all came over with wine glasses to toast the elders and daughters.

"It's too far away," Qi Niang pulled Shanniang to stand up, leaned into her ear and smiled, "It's not good for him to hear it." ”

At the other end of the hall, Yuan Changqing looked at the crowd from afar, and suddenly made Shanniang's heart "chuckle". Although she didn't believe much in Yuan Changqing's boasting before, his eyes inexplicably made her feel that he should have heard it and was angry......
