Chapter 6 Side by Side
When he arrived at Liufu, Ning Yu's retreat began to beat louder and louder.
Except for Mrs. Liu, no one in the mansion knew her true identity, but remembering the last time she saw this housewife, Ning Yu's brain buzzed.
*
That day, Ning Yu accidentally found that there was an old man who spent a lot of money to hire a live-in teacher for his son, and she was desperate, and she immediately disguised herself as a man and went, as the first talented woman in the city, she was naturally extremely prominent, and the old man was also extremely satisfied.
It was supposed to be decided, but she shouldn't have gotten carried away, Ning Yu accidentally lost her hairpin, her long hair poured down, and the old man found out that she was a woman.
Ning Yu had no way out, and finally saw the road of his life, so he almost kowtowed to the old man on the spot, Ning Yu begged bitterly.
In the end, Ning Yu told the other party his identity, and even took his own ancestor to explore Hualang, and also made a package ticket, saying that letting this old man's son become a jinshi is as simple as eating, so how can the old man not be moved?
Seeing that it was about to be decided again, Ning Yu could be regarded as having seen what it meant to have twists and turns.
The door was pushed open, and the old man's wife rushed in.
Ning Yu looked at this big lady and was stunned, but she thought that she was here to apply for a job as a teacher, although she was dressed as a man, it was not a sin, and she should have nothing to do.
As a result, she saw the old man pointing at herself and said to the great lady:
"I want to take a concubine."
Although the old man later explained to her that the eldest lady of his family was unwilling to let his illegitimate son go to the family tree, he wanted the illegitimate son to work hard to be admitted to the Jinshi as an official and then go to the family tree in the light, so the matter of teaching his son homework in private must be hidden from the eldest lady.
But now Ning Yu remembers the scene at that time, and his heart is still furious.
What's more, now that the master is dead, it is the eldest lady who is in charge here, and it is impossible not to be nervous about other people's realms.
*
Ning Yu walked cautiously, and the people in the house were full of gossip about this unmasked concubine, whether it was the young lady in the mansion or the maidservant, they had to look at her twice.
In addition, Ning Yu was born really delicate, and her status was a lowly concubine, so she was inevitably talked about.
"What, regret comes? Scared? Liu Siyuan was completely watching the fire from the other side, and he was afraid that the fire would not be strong enough, and he hated to borrow the east wind.
"I, how can I have?! It's all small scenes, small scenes. Ning Yu moved the corners of his mouth, looking completely indifferent.
The next moment.
"Why don't you go by yourself, anyway, it's you who Mrs. Liu wants to see, I forgot to turn off the heat in the porridge I made, I'll go first."
Ning Yu was about to slip away as he spoke, but his elbow was clamped by Liu Siyuan, "Forget it, forget it, it's a big deal I'll compensate you for a pot of porridge." Liu Siyuan smiled maliciously, pulled Ning Yu and walked inside.
"Ouch, who's this? Wouldn't this be the wild seed and his ...... Ouch, we can't say it, it's hard to say. ”
"No, I've heard that a girl in the house has heard that raising a little girl in the yard is not indiscriminate, how can this be on the table."
As soon as the hand holding the elbow was released, Ning Yu followed the sound and saw that it was two richly dressed women.
"Look, look, these watery eyes look like a sultry goblin, you have to be in charge, this kind of person...... Tut-tut, the means are very good. ”
"My lord is not interested in this kind of thing, this kind of goods can be played casually on the ground with a little silver, and do you still need to occupy space at home? It's just redundant. ”
Ning Yu listened silently, only Mrs. Liu knew her true identity in this mansion now, and the other people who were salty and carrot-eating and worried about it all thought that she was just a concubine who was accepted by Master Liu by her posture.
Moreover, he was originally fake, and his body deeds were all fake, to put it bluntly, his essential job was to teach the rebel to take the road of the imperial examination. Naturally, there is no need to explain this kind of secrecy to them.
"Scared? Thinking about the porridge is going to dry up again? Liu Siyuan hooked his lips and chuckled.
"What's there to be afraid of, can't you hear that this is jealousy of my beautiful face?" Ning Yu straightened his neck.
"Good fellows." Liu Siyuan exclaimed in a low voice, unable to hide his laughter.
Ning Yu took Liu Siyuan into the table, but no one relaxed at the banquet at home, Mrs. Liu saw Liu Siyuan nodded, and turned to Ning Yu and said:
"This kid was embarrassed to come before, but this time you came because you taught it well."
Ning Yu, who was silently reciting that no one would pay attention to me, was suddenly ordered, and hurriedly smiled politely: "Master, I really dare not take it when you say that......"
"There are ...... you don't dare to be" Liu Siyuan demolished the stage in a low voice, although the whisper could only be heard by Ning Yu, it still made Ning Yu's face blush.
Then hurt each other, Ning Yu glared at Liu Siyuan, and continued:
"Siyuan misses you very much, as soon as I heard about it, I immediately came happily, and I also prepared a birthday gift for you, right, Siyuan."
As soon as the words fell, Ning Yu gloated and turned her head to look at Liu Siyuan, ready to see the expression of "who am I and where am I" on his face, of course, Ning Yu is not an unreliable person, she has already given Liu Siyuan a good spot, and is ready to relieve him with a joke.
But who knows, this melon baby actually said with an indifferent face: "Oh? The little lady remembered it wrong. I know, it was the little lady who prepared it for me without authorization, and now I want to give it to the grandfather in my name, right? Then thank you little lady. ”
Isn't this baby stupid?!
Ning Yu covered his chest with his hands, almost being angry to death, and could only laugh awkwardly in front of everyone.
"Look, I'm laughing to death, I want to please my grandfather for my son, but it's a pity...... This son is so stupid that he really wants to die of laughter. ”
Listening to the unshying yin and yang around him, Ning Yu also turned his head with a smile on his face and turned his head politely to the woman next to him: "You smile leisurely, how bad it is to die on this good day." ”
"You! How can you have the right to speak as a concubine. ”
"Okay, okay, it's good to have this heart. Although this Yu Xiaoniang is a concubine, she has a merit in taking care of Siyuan, I have heard for a long time, Yu Xiaoniang regards Siyuan as her own, and cooks for him herself, very attentively. Mrs. Liu nodded with satisfaction.
Ning Yu got up uncomfortably and saluted, and finally they started talking about something else, Ning Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back at Liu Siyuan beside him, who looked like he was enjoying watching the show.
Rebel, stupid, still an elbow turned out, and the mud can't hold up the wall! The bitterness in Ning Yu's heart is really indescribable.
However, this kind of bitterness was quickly replaced, the mat was a flowing water mat, and the delicacies of the mountains and seas were very attentive, Ning Yu looked at the happy appearance of the Liu family on the surface, and suddenly remembered his own home.
used to be much more prominent than this, if it weren't for the traitorous ministers, what a good life it would be with my parents now.
It's a pity that although she was rehabilitated, her parents are no longer there, and there is only one left who no one cares about, guarding a broken house, and a debt that has no head to find the door.
"Siyuan, now that you are not young, it is time to mention the marriage."
The voice was calm and elegant, Ning Yu looked over and saw that the eldest lady was very dignified in her mouth, and she was not angry and arrogant.
Before Liu Siyuan could speak, Mrs. Liu said first, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll talk about Siyuan's matter later, besides, Siyuan himself lives in another courtyard, and it's not convenient to handle this kind of thing, what do you say, lady?" ”
Ning Yu saw Mrs. Liu's attitude towards the woman, and understood why it was so difficult for Liu Siyuan to enter the Liu family tree, and Master Liu had to find a way to let Liu Siyuan become a jinshi. This is obviously the eldest lady, and Mrs. Liu has to discuss with her.
"Don't you have to do it if it's inconvenient, father-in-law doesn't have to worry about this, even if it's inconvenient, you can handle it." Women don't smile when they smile.
"Since it's inconvenient, let's move in and live in, and it's convenient to do things." Mrs. Liu said.
Ning Yu turned his head to look at the person concerned, Liu Siyuan, good guy, this melon baby is gnawing on the elbow of sauce, he usually dislikes that he only has food in his eyes, why is he not polite at this time, he really doesn't talk about etiquette at all.
Ning Yu sulked again in his heart, this good man really knows the occasion, the more important the time, the more he can't take it, he is blind and has a good face, he is really angry.
"Siyuan is used to being free outside, and I'm afraid it's not appropriate to come back to live." The eldest lady didn't smile anymore, and said an understatement with a cold face, so that Mrs. Liu couldn't answer.
The battle between her father-in-law and daughter-in-law, Ning Yu was so excited that she didn't eat anything, how powerful this big lady's family background is, how can she give her father-in-law a face if she supports her back.
"Siyuan, are you homesick too? When I am homesick, I often come back to sit, and when I am familiar with it, I get used to it. Mrs. Liu looked at Liu Siyuan again, as if looking for an ally.
But his allies are sleepwalking.
"Thank you for your help, I grew up outside, and I don't have any feelings for this, I don't want to."
I didn't want to make Ning Yu stunned by two words.
"This ...... This is your home after all, come back and live with your grandfather for a while, and you will get used to it. Mrs. Liu said again.
"Actually, it's good for me to live in another courtyard," Liu Siyuan was very determined, "these days...... She...... Treat me well. ”
Ning Yu was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes and looked at Liu Siyuan, and suddenly his heart was hot.
This Liu Siyuan, who usually talks back to himself, should also recognize himself in his heart, Ning Yu thought, at least the care these days has not been in vain.
"That's good," the eldest lady's voice was still gentle and calm, "how useless outsiders think these days, it's still the most important thing to be comfortable." But you must not make trouble for yourself, that is, a good life, let alone ......
When Master Liu was alive, he deliberately accepted Yu Xiaoniang, saying that he was taking care of Siyuan, and Yu Xiaoniang was also dedicated, right, Yu Xiaoniang? ”
Ning Yu was listening to the fight between the two sides, and suddenly everyone was brushed over, and she could only get up.
"Yes, yes, I will do my best."
"It's good to do your best, master, Sixing has been studying lately, don't look at his young age, but he said that day that he would work hard for the prosperity of the Liu family."
The woman who was still yin and yang just now began to recommend her son, Ning Yu listened carefully for a while, and it was clear, this should be the eldest lady of the other son of the master, it seems that the mother's family is not good, so it is very flattering to the grandfather.
A group of people can be regarded as giving her face, listening to her praise her son and husband, it seems that the family is very harmonious.
Ning Yu raised his eyes and looked at Liu Siyuan, who was only caring about the banquet, and sighed secretly in his heart, he was also a son, what kind of Sixing sounded much more reliable than Liu Siyuan, at least he was motivated, and he really couldn't do it.
When Ning Yu was already full and capped with fruits and melon seeds, she basically sorted out the relationship between these people, the scene was too warm, she lost interest, and even began to yawn again and again.
"I'm really happy today," Mrs. Liu is still happy, "It's just right, I think of something, and I want to tell you at this time that when my son was alive, he once instructed Siyuan to give the cloth factory to Siyuan, so as to subsidize his daily use, and now the deed is here, Siyuan, you can take it." ”
The banquet was silent for an instant, and Ning Yu, who was still knocking on the melon seeds, took out the last piece of melon seed skin in his mouth, and the next one that entered his mouth like an assembly line had been suspended, and he turned his head to look at Liu Siyuan with his hand half-raised, and then looked at the eldest lady with floating eyes.
