Chapter 287: Momentary Confusion
After the rain stopped, Jiang Yingning was bored when she saw Qiu Tong coming back from outside.
"Master, the matter has been done." Qiu Tong said softly again, "By the way, the old lady called all the ladies in the house to Shou'an Hall. β
Bai Ling was thoughtful beside him, "I guess it's to take charge of the feed, right?" I don't know who I can give it to? β
"Let's go, call Sister Qiaoxi," Jiang Yingning said in a cheerful tone, "Let's go over and help Grandmother think of a way." β
So, she walked to Shou'an Hall with Pan Qiaoxi.
On the way, Pan Qiaoxi sighed, "The eldest lady is indeed a little too much this time, it's too sad." β
As she spoke, she secretly looked at Jiang Yingning's expression, and deliberately changed the topic, "Sister Yingning, who do you think the old lady will let take charge of the feed?" β
Jiang Yingning smiled, "What does Sister Qiaoxi think?" β
Pan Qiaoxi thought for a while, "To be honest, my aunt shouldn't be able to take care of these trivial matters, and she will probably give them to the third lady." β
Jiang Yingning shook his head, "The Zhou family is a typical literati and writer, with high ambitions and clean qualities, and they generally scoff at things like money and status. β
She tilted her head and asked Pan Qiaoxi, "Sister Qiaoxi thinks that the third aunt is from such a family, can she be in charge of the feed?" β
"That's it." Pan Qiaoxi was obviously a little surprised, and said confusedly, "What should I do then?" You can't give it to the eldest lady again, right? β
"Hee-hee, don't worry, it won't." Jiang Yingning said affirmatively.
Soon, the two arrived at the door of Shou'an Hall, and Jiang Yingning asked people not to report it, and walked directly with Pan Qiaoxi.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Zhou Wenzhuo say with some guilt, "Mother, my daughter-in-law is really not competent in this matter, if you start studying now, I'm afraid it will take some time." β
"Useless stuff." The old lady hated iron and said, "The ladies in other people's houses can make a fuss in order to take charge of the middle feed, you are good, send them to the door and push them out one by one." β
"Mother, this shows that the life of our Hou Mansion is good, and there are no intrigues."
Pan Feiyan said a little naΓ―vely, and then snorted indignantly, "This time the eldest lady is really too much, I was chilled when I heard it, and I really don't understand, our Ying Ning is so cute, why is she so biased towards that Liu ......"
Before she finished speaking, she saw Jiang Yingning and Pan Qiaoxi coming in, and her heart was sour, and she hurriedly stepped forward to take Jiang Yingning in her arms.
"Good boy, you have been wronged today." Pan Feiyan was distressed.
If Jiang Yingning is the daughter of the second room, the second room must treat Jiang Yingning as a treasure from top to bottom, why doesn't Liu Ruyan know to cherish it?
"Hehe, second aunt, Ying Ning is fine." Jiang Yingning smiled indifferently, and when she turned her head, she saw the old lady wiping her tears.
Pan Feiyan also noticed it, and hurriedly let go of Jiang Yingning, "Come over, don't make the old lady sad anymore." β
Jiang Yingning nodded, and immediately trotted to the old lady's side, "Grandmother, don't be sad." β
She said with her handkerchief and gently wiped the old lady's tears, "You see, Ying Ning is not sad at all, and grandmother is not allowed to be sad. β
"Okay, grandmother is not sad, not sad." The old lady held back her tears, sighed, and looked at the second and third rooms helplessly.
She is really uncomfortable at this time, does she have to return the right to take charge of the feed to Liu Ruyan again?
At this time, I heard a rumor from people outside that the eldest lady was coming.
Several people's expressions changed.
Soon, Liu Ruyan came in crying, and suddenly knelt in front of the old lady, "Mother, daughter-in-law has come to ask you for sin." β
While crying, she looked remorseful, "My daughter-in-law was really confused in the morning, so she did something like that, please punish my mother." β
The old lady gritted her teeth with hatred and said coldly, "The person you should apologize to is not me. β
Liu Ruyan knelt there and was stunned for a moment, looking at Jiang Yingning next to her with some reluctance.
Jiang Yingning looked back at her with a smile, and had no intention of stepping forward to help her up.
Liu Ruyan gritted her teeth silently, and said with some apologies, "Ying Ning, mother shouldn't use your dowry, it's your mother who did something wrong, can you forgive your mother?" β
Jiang Yingning smiled, "It's nothing, Ying Ning doesn't mind, anyway, it's not a day and a half a day for her mother to prefer Liu Mianmian, Ying Ning is used to it." β
Clearly adding fuel to the fire.
Pan Feiyan couldn't help but open her mouth when she heard this, "Sister-in-law is really strange, Ying Ning, this child can't hurt a few of us as aunts, and your mother actually treats her like this." β
"Feiyan, I also see that Mianmian is too pitiful, so I will be confused for a while." Liu Ruyan explained with a faint expression.
"Poor her?" The old lady's voice was even colder, "After doing such a thing, we didn't blow her out in the Ding'an Hou Mansion, and we have already done our best." β
Liu Ruyan reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth, but did not speak.
Seeing this, Jiang Yingning immediately smiled and said, "Grandmother, my mother doesn't think so about this matter, she always thinks that our Hou Mansion has treated Cousin Mianmian badly, right?" Mother? β
Liu Ruyan tightened her handkerchief for a moment, and wanted to get up and tear her face with Jiang Yingning, but she knew that she couldn't, at least not now.
She could only try her best to calm her anger, and continued to say in a compassionate manner, "Mother, Ying Ning, the past has passed, what's the point of who is right and who is wrong?" A young lady from a good family has now become a roommate, and she has been punished, hasn't she? β
She wiped her tears lightly, and continued, "Besides, this morning's incident was indeed my own idea, and I was confused. β
"Mother is so confused, how can she manage the big and small affairs in the house?" Jiang Yingning said speechlessly.
"This ......" Liu Ruyan thought for a while, and then immediately explained, "It's just a moment of confusion, a moment of confusion." β
"Hehe," the old lady sneered, "I don't care if you are confused for a while, or if you do it on purpose, you don't have to worry about the matter of being in charge of the feed for the time being." β
When Liu Ruyan heard this, she suddenly felt proud in her heart, what the old lady said was that she didn't have to take care of it for the time being, and obviously she had to pay it back to herself in the future.
She immediately said convincingly, "Ruyan understands, Ruyan is willing to accept punishment." β
The old lady instantly sensed something, and the anger in her heart was even greater, and she waved her hand and said, "Okay, okay, you all go back, just stay with me and stay with me." β
"Then Mother has a good rest." Liu Ruyan stood up and left first.
Pan Feiyan and Zhou Wenzhuo also left together.
Out of Shou'an Hall, Pan Feiyan couldn't help but stop Liu Ruyan, "Sister-in-law, wait a minute." β
Liu Ruyan turned around, there was no trace of guilt on her face, and she looked at Pan Feiyan arrogantly, "Is there something wrong?" β
"Sister-in-law, are you going too far?" Pan Feiyan stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Do you know that there are rumors in the house now?" β
