Su Lan wanted to deliberately give Xia Hanmo a dismissal, but she didn't expect Jiang Wanxiu to help this woman speak.

Bai Qingqing didn't understand the source inside, but when he saw a woman who was beautiful, he was very unhappy, and immediately retorted:

"Who said that Tianyi Pavilion was held out by a rich businessman, I heard that it was King Jing's industry, and my sister was really unheard!"

"Oh? My cousin is very well-informed, didn't King Jing tell you personally? Jiang Wanxiu asked curiously.

Bai Qingqing glanced at her with disdain, and said: "You know that you stay at home every day, naturally you don't know anything, although King Jing has not admitted it, but it is spread like this on the market!" ”

Jiang Wanxiu nodded, and said with some disapproval: Sister, you are also the young lady who grew up in Jiang's mansion, don't spread hearsay and gossip all day long, King Jing himself refuses to admit things, don't care if it's true or not, it's also his private matter, and the rest of the people are afraid that they will make him unhappy and lose their identity! ”

As soon as the old lady heard this, she also glanced at Bai Qingqing, and said, "I really don't understand the rules at all, and you can talk about the affairs of the nobles casually?" If it involves Jiang Mansion, can you afford it? In the future, run less and learn more rules, and lose the face of the Guogong Mansion! ”

When Bai Qingqing heard that the old lady actually blamed her, she was unhappy, and her face was also embarrassed, and she retorted: "Grandmother, how can a noble girl of a family not go out of the door, that is the spirit of a small family!" ”

The old lady was already angry because of the sarcastic words of Xia Hanmo just now, which annoyed her even more at this moment, Bai Qingqing relied on the old lady's love to confront her without knowing whether she was alive or dead, which made the old lady who had always paid attention to respect and humility suddenly angry, and reprimanded:

"Do you still have the dignity of the elder and the young in your eyes? This will bump into me, which noble girl has such a style? It seems that the last time you grounded your foot didn't let you learn to behave! ”

Seeing the old lady's angry expression, Bai Qingqing's heart tightened, knowing that he had said the wrong thing in front of outsiders, he hurriedly pursed his lips and stood aside with his head down, and did not dare to look at the old lady again.

At this moment, Su Lan unconsciously glanced at Xia Hanmo, and looked at Xia Hanmo with a shudder, this cousin's eyes were really terrifying, like a poisonous snake, eerie.

She didn't know what the old lady had found this woman for, but when she heard Jiang Wanxiu say that she would not leave again, her heart was also tight, and she felt uneasy.

Thinking of this, Su Lan changed her smiling face again, looked at the old lady and said, "Old lady, can Miss Xia's residence be arranged?" Or I'll ......."

Before she finished speaking, the old lady interrupted her and said, "No need, Mo'er will live in Heshoutang for the time being, you don't have to worry about her affairs!" ”

Su Lan was blocked, and what was even more angry was that she had planned to give Xia Hanmo a little color, but she was also ruined by the old lady's words, and she said unwillingly:

"I'm afraid this is unreasonable, and I'm afraid it will also disturb the old lady's tranquility, so it's better to open a courtyard to live in!"

The old lady glanced at her, and refused without thinking: "I said that I don't have to, I don't have to, I'm so bored when I live alone, just let Mo'er accompany me, aren't you even planning to get involved in my affairs?" ”

Su Lan retracted her words in a daze, and could only say: "How dare you, the concubine body is also for the sake of the old lady, since the old lady likes it, then it depends on you!" ”

The old lady didn't look at her, but said to Xia Hanmo, who was silent on the side: "Mo'er, you go down with Mama Li to clean up first, and come out for dinner later!" ”

Xia Hanmo nodded with a smile, and confessed to everyone in a proper manner, before following Mama Li, the old lady saw her leaving, so she said: "Wanxiu, you don't have to go back today, just stay here to accompany your grandmother to eat!" ”

Jiang Wanxiu naturally responded obediently, Bai Qingqing looked at the old lady with a flattering face, and said, "Grandmother, then Qingqing also stayed to accompany grandmother to eat, right?" ”

The old lady thought for a while and replied: "It's okay, you can stay, remember not to talk nonsense again, and don't forget your original identity." ”

"Yes."

After eating, Jiang Wanxiu said goodbye to the old lady and Xia Hanmo, and then turned around and went to her mother's room.

"Mother, Wanxiu has come to see you."

Seeing Jiang Wanxiu come in, Zhang Xiyue put down the embroidery in her hand and immediately greeted her, "Daughter, you're here, I just wanted to call Xiaoqing to stop you at the gate of the old lady's courtyard, but I didn't expect you to come." ”

Jiang Wanxiu helped Zhang Xiyue sit down on the edge of the bed, and asked slowly, "What?" What is the matter with the mother? ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiyue sighed lightly, brushed the hair around her ears with her hand, and said in a low voice: "A lot of things have happened to you recently, and it is all your mother's fault for not taking good care of you and putting you in danger again and again." ”

Seeing her mother's self-blame and sad look, Jiang Wanxiu felt distressed for a while, and hurriedly grabbed Zhang Xiyue's hand and said, "Mother, don't say that, my daughter can take care of herself, mother, look, isn't I good?" But you, I know that your health is getting worse and worse because of your father's frequent sadness, and you have to take care of yourself, and my brother and I will serve your mother until you are old. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiyue lowered her eyes, a trace of helplessness flashed in her eyes, and said; "Your father, I don't want to think about it anymore, I have seen it in recent days, it's useless if it's not my sadness, now, your grandmother has brought the Naxia girl to the mansion again, and she must be a concubine for your father."

found out her mother's sadness, Jiang Wanxiu was very distressed, why didn't her mother break her heart because of Jiang Chao, such as her, she treated men too affectionately, so she ended up like this.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wanxiu stroked Zhang Xiyue's hand and slowly comforted: "Mother doesn't have to be sad, just think about everything, as long as my mother is healthy and walks around my father more, my father will not forget my mother." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiyue's eyebrows frowned, and she sighed: "Alas, I don't force these for a long time, Na Sulan is deeply liked by your father, although this Xia girl may steal her favor when she comes, but she still has the flesh and blood of the Jiang family in her belly, and the momentum will naturally not decrease too much, but I feel sorry for you and your brother, I, as a mother, can't help you." ”

Jiang Wanxiu stood up, walked to the table, poured a cup of warm tea for Zhang Xiyue and handed it to her, and said: "Mother, you don't have to blame yourself, now the inner mansion is managed by the old lady, and the daughter knows that you don't want to take care of the house, but I must not let it set in the hands of others, let's see what kind of person this cousin aunt is, if it is a good class, we will accept it, after all, she is still young, mother, you are the main room, naturally she will not complain too much."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiyue said suspiciously; "Isn't that how?"

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Wanxiu's eyes flashed with a hint of discoloration, and she said coldly: "If she is not, I am also here, my daughter has grown up and can do a lot of things, my mother doesn't have to worry, she just needs to take care of her body, and there are many more people who will let her mother help in the future." ”

Seeing that her daughter really had the courage, Zhang Xiyue was also relieved, "Okay, Wanxiu, then I will wronged you." ”

Early the next morning, Jiang Wanxiu had just walked out of Heshoutang after saying goodbye to the old lady, but she turned around and met Xia Hanmo, and saw that her face was slightly gloomy, so she took the initiative to greet her: "Aunt Cousin, why are you here alone?" What about the girls around you? ”

When Xia Hanmo saw Jiang Wanxiu, she hurriedly changed her smile and said softly: "Yan'er went to get me something!" ”

"My cousin is still used to living in the house these days? Speaking of which, the family is not peaceful these days, and my mother is sick again and has been negligent, don't be surprised! Jiang Wanxiu comforted with a smile.

Xia Hanmo shook her head, her smile was a little bitter, and said: "Where is it, how can I ask for a lot when an orphan girl comes to join her relatives, and it is a blessing to be sheltered by Jiang Mansion!" ”

Jiang Wanxiu heard this, and knew that Xia Hanmo must have suffered some grievances, which was also natural, after all, Su Lan knew that Xia Hanmo was here to rob her husband, and she would definitely not give her a good face.

She patted Xia Hanmo's hand and said softly: "Aunt Cousin said this to see the outside, you are your grandmother's niece, you have suffered an accident in the family, you can think of us, it is also the love between relatives, you are also the master of this mansion, if anyone dares to despise you, just take out the master's posture to teach them a lesson, Wan Xiu knows that there are always some people in this mansion who praise the high and step on the low." ”

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Wanxiu pursed her lips, and her expression was a little bitter and said, "Hey...... To be honest, even my eldest lady occasionally has times when things don't go well, so bear with me! ”

Her sad look made Xia Hanmo suddenly feel pity, thinking that Mrs. Jiang in the house now has no head of the house, and she is not loved by Jiang Chao, naturally this eldest lady must also be wronged everywhere, and she can also see what kind of character Su Lan and Bai Qingqing are.

She shook Jiang Wanxiu's hand and said softly: "Wanxiu, you are also bitter, if you want to say that you are the eldest daughter of Jiang Mansion, and you have been wronged everywhere, presumably I, an outsider, will naturally not have a good time, fortunately, although my aunt is old, she can also take care of things, and you can be less angry with some people." ”

Jiang Wanxiu smiled, thinking that this Xia Hanmo was really not a good stubble, and she had already started to provoke at this time, but she was afraid that she was a soft persimmon, and that was definitely not the opponent of the second room, this kind of person who was weak and beautiful on the surface, but there was no lack of scheming, was the most useful for her.

Jiang Wanxiu pretended to look at her sadly, and then said, "Hey, it's just strange that I'm not smart!" Didn't please my father. My mother was also not favored by my father, so she ended up like this, unlike your cousin, who is so beautiful that anyone who sees you will like you. ”

Xia Hanmo smiled gently, and said shyly and timidly: "Wan Xiu said that I am laughing, how can I be like you said, I am just an orphan girl in the middle of the road!" ”

Jiang Wanxiu pouted, pretending to be innocent and said: "How can my cousin be presumptuous, you are also a scholarly family, although the family suffered a disaster, but grandmother is good to you, or she will not be too old to bring you here, it can be seen that grandmother really loves you!" ”

Xia Hanmo, who said this, also had a little joy on her face, and the original gloom disappeared, and she sighed: "My aunt and Wanxiu treat me sincerely, but it's a pity that I'm just an outsider, and I'm going to leave after all, hey......"

"Where, grandmother said, you are going to live here from now on, why do you want to go? Don't say such things, otherwise my grandmother will still be ignorant and you won't be able to stay in the house! Jiang Wanxiu pretended not to understand and comforted.

Xia Hanmo smiled, lowered her head slightly, and said as if she was very embarrassed: "After all, I am my daughter's family, and I can't stay in Jiang Mansion for the rest of my life!" ”

Jiang Wanxiu suddenly realized and said, "Oh, that's the case, hey...... That's right, grandmother will definitely plan for you, but it's a pity, Wan Xiu really wants to let my cousin accompany me more, although you are my elder, but you are about the same age, and I am very close to you! ”

"I also feel that I am very close to Wanxiu, and I can't bear you, and my aunt!"

Xia Hanmo said a little melancholy, and her face was a little sad for a while.
