Chapter 483: The Truth of Xiangrui
Except for Mrs. Bai and Bai Muban, everyone in the Bai family was curious about what Cheng Mei talked about in the upper room.
Because it can be clearly seen that the anxiety on Mrs. Bai's body after Cheng Mei left.
But they didn't dare ask.
"Hey, sister-in-law, you said this Cheng Mei, will she also be a person in the palace, after all, her mother is the niece of the queen mother." You Jingui squatted at the kitchen door to choose vegetables, glanced at the surroundings and asked Xie Chuntao in a low voice.
Judging from Mrs. Bai's unpleasant performance a few days ago, You Jingui felt that he had guessed correctly.
It must be that the people in the palace want to take their mother-in-law to the capital again, but the mother-in-law does not agree.
You Jingui felt that her mother-in-law was too rigid, what was there to stay in Shenshu Village, and how good it was to go to the capital to live a rich life.
"That's not something we should be asking about. When my mother-in-law and in-laws tell us about family matters, we just listen, and if they don't tell us, we don't need to ask, they won't harm our family. ”
Xie Chuntao disagrees with Eugene Gui.
She vaguely guessed in her heart that Cheng Mei's arrival must be related to her sister-in-law.
As for what it was, she didn't know.
The mother-in-law didn't tell her, and she didn't inquire.
Eugene Gui pouted, this sister-in-law can't talk about gossip for her.
Can I compare with Xie Chuntao? Xie Chuntao didn't ask, her mother-in-law would tell her in private, and ask her to discuss it together, but as for herself, not only did she not tell her anything at home, but she would hide it from herself.
"Sister-in-law, do you know why this Cheng Mei is wearing a hat and covering her face to death? I went to the upper room to deliver tea, and when I stood at the door, I saw that her face was the same as that housekeeper Yan, I don't know if she was chopped by a knife or burned by fire, she was always scary. Although it was no longer interesting to gossip with Xie Chuntao, Eugene Gui still couldn't help but gossip.
There's no way, Xie Chuntao is honest, at least he won't scold her.
She didn't dare to gossip about Hetian Maimiao.
You Jingui thought of the glance at the door of the upper room, Cheng Mei's face almost scared herself to death, and her hand holding the tea bowl trembled and almost hit.
Afraid that the old lady Bai would find out that she ran to deliver tea without being summoned, she quickly ran away in fright.
"Second brother and sister, don't talk nonsense, what does the family look like, that is also the world's first rich female businessman, and the third brother is still doing business with others." Xie Chuntao is colorful.
"I'm just going to tell you about it." Eugene Gui laughed wryly.
Thinking that the world's No. 1 businesswoman with a graceful and luxurious appearance turned out to be a disfigured face, Eugene Gui couldn't help but feel pity.
"Also, sister-in-law, I saw Cheng Mei holding her mother's hand at the door and crying, saying something like the daughter of the Bai family, I didn't dare to go in." Although You Jingui didn't hear what she was talking about, she thought it was related to her sister-in-law, after all, who else could the daughter of the Bai family have besides her sister-in-law?
"I heard the third brother say that Cheng Da's family suffered from the wind and cold on the way, and it was good to read the letter written by his sister. Maybe people say that the daughter of the Bai family is grateful to her sister. Xie Chuntao was surprised, and vaguely guessed why Cheng Mei came to the Bai family to see her sister-in-law, but she naturally couldn't tell Eugene Gui.
Eugene Gui thought for a moment and nodded.
It's the same, who let her sister-in-law speak so smartly, a businesswoman like Cheng Mei who goes in and out of the sea, comes to the Bai family to meet her sister-in-law religiously and ask for a few auspicious words, isn't that normal?
As for those eye-catching gifts and jewels for my sister-in-law, they don't mean anything, my life is gone, and I still care about jewelry?
She was curious about what Cheng Mei brought to her sister this time.
Seeing Xiao Fuyuan coming out of the upper room, Eugene Gui beckoned to Xiao Fuyuan and said, "Sister, what do you want to eat at noon?" The second sister-in-law will make it for you to eat. ”
When Xiao Fuyuan heard that her second sister-in-law was cooking for her, she waved her hand in fright.
Seeing the sister-in-law sitting at the kitchen door, Da Da Da ran over, touched Xie Chuntao's stomach with her little hand, and listened to the movement inside.
Xie Chuntao was amused by her sister-in-law's cute behavior, stroked her sister-in-law's head and said, "Your little niece is still young, and she can't move." ”
Xiao Fuyuan smiled sweetly.
You Jingui said on the side: "Sister-in-law, what a little niece, it's a little nephew, your baby must be a brat." ”
Xie Chuntao frowned and said, "Don't you allow me to think about my daughter?" ”
"Sister, what good things did Cheng Mei send you this time?" Eugene Gui asked curiously.
"Ragdolls, skirts." Xiao Fuyuan said.
"Why are you sending these?" Eugene almost said something worthless.
"I love it." Xiao Fuyuan saw the second sister-in-law's thoughts and emphasized.
Xie Chuntao's heart moved on the side, touched Xiao Fuyuan's hand, and said: "The gift is not valuable, but attentive, my sister likes it." ”
You Jingui sneered in his heart, this Xie Chuntao always looks like a saint.
When Tian Maimiao gave birth to twins, the sister-in-law grabbed two big beads from the jewelry given by Cheng Mei and gave them to the twins.
When Xie Chuntao was born, the sister-in-law gave her a child rag doll to see what she said.
"Little Yuanbao, come here."
The old lady Bai was turning over the vegetable patch, and when she was tired, she called Xiao Fuyuan over.
"Grandma, take a break." Xiao Fuyuan wiped the sweat of the old lady Bai with his own handkerchief.
At this time, when Mrs. Bai looked at her granddaughter again, she felt a little lost and regained.
When her son and daughter-in-law agreed to Cheng Mei to see her granddaughter, she was very nervous, lest her granddaughter be taken away.
That's why she maintained a confrontational posture towards Cheng Mei throughout the whole process.
Now that Cheng Mei personally admits that Xiao Fuyuan is a descendant of the Bai family, Mrs. Bai's heart falls back into her stomach.
……
Capital.
Mama Chang brought a delicate box and came to the Queen Mother with a smile on her face.
"Queen Mother, look, this is the sweet potato that the eldest lady asked He Shun to honor you."
Mama Chang opened the box.
The Queen Mother glanced at a red oval rhizome in the box, and couldn't help asking, "Sweet potato?" ”
What's that rarity?
"Yes, sweet potatoes. said that the third son of the eldest lady's family went to Nanyang to help the lord of Furong find it. Mama Chang said with a smile.
This is the first time that the eldest lady has given a gift to the Queen Mother.
The sweet potatoes brought by the third prince from Nanyang, she also wanted Baba's filial piety to the queen mother, which shows that the eldest lady has the queen mother in her heart.
"Queen Mother, this is a good thing, it is said to be boiled and steamed, and it is very sweet. The greater advantage is that it can be used as food, and the yield of peanuts is up to a dozen vines. The eldest son of the eldest lady's family is thinking about seeding. Mama Chang said.
"This thing is so good." The Queen Mother muttered to herself.
At the same time, he asked: "You said that this was brought from Nanyang by the little girl of the Bai family?" ”
Mama Chang said: "I heard that this is the case. ”
The Queen Mother fell into deep thought.
It is said that there is auspiciousness in Nanguan Mountain.
Could it be that this auspicious rui is the girl of the Bai family.
The emperor has always been worried that food can't feed so many people, so she gave such a big gift.
