Chapter 40: Ill-intentioned
In the Orchid Garden, Chen Wanyu and Qin Ruolan both had black faces, and the servants were terrified, and even Xiaoxi was trembling.
"Alright, you can go down." Chen Wanyu waved her hand, and Xiaoxi hurriedly retreated.
"I thought that Ming'er would make Ruan Mianmian embarrassed, but I didn't expect her to go at all." Qin Ruolan said angrily.
"Little dolls are not easy to deal with." Chen Wanyu let out a long sigh, "We missed the best opportunity, and it's not what it used to be. Next, you must not act rashly, we must plan slowly. ”
"Plan slowly, auntie, how long do you want me to wait." Qin Ruolan stomped her feet, "Looking at the mother and daughter of the third room like this, I can't bear it anymore." ”
Chen Wanyu's eyes flashed, and she glanced at Qin Ruolan and stopped talking.
"Auntie, why are you looking at me like this?"
"Instead of waiting for others to debunk it, it's better to move flowers and trees in advance, and I suddenly felt that maybe Ming'er's poems would be a good time."
"What do you mean? Auntie, do you have a solution? ”
"You have to think about it, you have to give to get it, at least you can get out of it and throw this mess to Ruan Mianmian."
"I listen to my aunt." Qin Ruolan couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Ruan Mianmian is not happy, look at Zhou Yuning and have to worry about something." ”
"Humph! I won't let Zhou Yuning go. Chen Wanyu smiled sinisterly, "She thought that she would ascend to heaven when she got out of the fence and settled, it was impossible." ”
"Auntie still has a trick?"
"You don't have to worry about Zhou Yuning's slut, I have my own way."
"By the way, aunt, you've been living here for a few days, and your uncle won't come, so don't you go back?" Qin Ruolan suggested.
"Leave him alone, stubborn, I get upset when I look at him."
"You have to make peace with him quickly, and if necessary, he can help us say a few kind words."
Chen Wanyu said impatiently: "Don't say it, I know it in my heart." ”
That night, after Ruan Geng returned home, Mrs. Ruan chatted with him about what happened in the smoke cage courtyard today.
"Old man, what do you say is going on with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and our family?"
"Old woman, two little dolls, what do you say can do? Mianmian people love each other, and it is normal for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to like it when he sees it. ”
"It's also said that one is three years old and the other is eight years old, and they are indeed two little dolls." Old Madam Ruan secretly laughed at herself for thinking too much.
The next day, Ruan Mianmian got up before dawn, and the little milk dumpling ran to the kitchen in person, and the cook was instructed to go around, and finally made four kinds of dim sum according to her requirements.
Ruan Mianmian selected a few pieces of each of them and put them in the food box and ordered: "The rest is divided into five parts, one each for Fu'an Hall, Moli Zhai, Lingyun Courtyard, and Yanlang Courtyard." You've worked hard, and the last one is for you to taste. ”
"Thank you, Miss." The kitchen men thanked each other in unison.
The special aroma of the dim sum attracted the greedy worms in people's stomachs to scream, and when they heard the dim sum to eat, they all smiled, and they sighed in their hearts that Miss was really sympathetic.
"By the way, when you send it to the grinding fast, tell your brothers to keep a copy for the fourth brother." Ruan Mianmian came to the door with a food box, and suddenly turned around and said.
Some of them carried the food box all the way away, and Shuang'er followed Ruan Mianmian closely.
"Miss, I'll take the food box."
"No, let's go faster."
"Slow down."
"I'm afraid it's too late."
While talking, Ruan Mianmian saw that a carriage was about to go out of the back door, and she shouted loudly: "Fourth brother, fourth brother." ”
"Stop." Ruan Xiao in the carriage heard the curtain open and looked back, "Hey, sister, got up so early?" ”
"Finally caught up." Ruan Mianmian gasped and stepped forward.
Ruan Xiao got down from the carriage and saw Ruan Mianmian sweating and raised her sleeves to help her wipe it: "Why are you running so fast?" In case you fall, you'll be in trouble. ”
"Here, fourth brother." Ruan Mianmian handed over the food box like a treasure.
"What's in there?" Ruan Xiao took the food box and recognized that it was the one he brought back from the palace yesterday.
"Come and don't be rude, the dim sum in it is my return gift to my little brother."
Shuang'er interjected: "Fourth son, Miss got up before dawn and went straight to the kitchen, this is a freshly baked snack." ”
"Why bother?" Ruan Xiao was very distressed, "Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to eat anything?" ”
Ruan Mianmian shook her head: "It's different, it's not as delicious as my snacks." Fourth brother, I asked someone to send it to Tempering Zhai, and I also told you to keep a share. ”
"Thank you." Ruan Xiao stretched out her hand and poked Ruan Mianmian's nose, "I'm leaving, otherwise I'll be late." ”
"Fourth brother, goodbye." Ruan Mianmian waved towards the carriage.
Ruan Xiao leaned out of the car window and waved his hand with a smile on his face: "Sister, go back." ”
Ruan Mianmian walked back slowly with Shuang'er, and saw that the entrance of the Orchid Garden was very lively from afar.
"Sister Shuang'er, what are they busy doing?"
"The eldest lady is going to take Qin Ruolan out to swagger again." Shuang'er is bolder than in the past, "Every time I go out, I make people turn on their backs, and I suffer the people of Lanyuan." ”
"Why do you make people fall on their backs?" Ruan Mianmian asked curiously.
"Doesn't Miss know? The eldest lady also lives in the Orchid Garden, and with Qin Ruolan, she heard that the two of them are very difficult to serve. ”
Ruan Mianmian was quite surprised: "Hasn't the eldest aunt returned to Hengwu Courtyard yet?" ”
"yes, it's been a few days." Shuang'er lowered her voice, "This time the eldest master is really tough, and he doesn't pay attention to the eldest lady at all." ”
"Is it because of me?" Ruan Mianmian was a little reluctant.
"It's none of your business." Shuang'er pulled Ruan Mianmian behind the big tree next to her, "They came out." ”
Ruan Mianmian poked her head out from behind the big tree: "Ouch, the eldest aunt and Qin Ruolan are really dressed like peacocks." ”
Shuang'er couldn't help but smile: "Miss described it so aptly. ”
"By the way, didn't they say yesterday that they were going to attend some poetry meeting of the county lord of Jingwang and go so early?"
"Who knows?"
"Let's go. So as not to be seen by the eldest aunt, save trouble. ”
Ruan Mianmian returned to the smoke cage courtyard, took a snack for breakfast, and after eating, went straight to Fu'an Hall.
"Grandfather, grandmother, Mianmian has come to say goodbye."
Mama Yun greeted her: "The old marquis and the old lady are talking about the young lady." ”
"Because I had a delicious snack for breakfast, do you think of Mianmian?"
"Even if you don't have a snack, I'm still thinking about you." Mama Yun stretched out her hand and helped Ruan Mianmian, allowing her to easily cross the threshold.
Ruan Geng was watching at the table, and when he saw Ruan Mianmian coming, he beckoned to her: "Little girl, come and take a look." ”
"What?" Ruan Mianmian walked to the table and only glanced at it, "Grandfather, this is the floor plan of our house." ”
"You understand?" Ruan Geng showed a proud look, his granddaughter is smart.
Ruan Mianmian knew that she had missed her mouth, so she simply admitted generously: "It is obvious that it is the pattern of the house, and you can see it at a glance." ”
