Chapter 39 Daughter-in-law

"If she doesn't come, she won't come, what's so angry about this?"

Xia Jing doesn't care about this, the two are not mother and daughter, so there is no need to force herself and others you don't like to be false and wronged in order to show outsiders.

The two people who don't like each other, pretend to treat each other attentively, greet each other with a smile, think about it and feel tired and panicked, she might as well drink tea quietly, it just happens that there is well water on the road, and it is much more convenient to drink water.

"Come and say hello to you, this is the respect that the county lord should have for you as a child, she is so disrespectful to her elders, princess, you should talk to the prince." Hongmei wanted to say that she would let the princess teach her, but when she thought that the princess was just a stepmother, she changed her mind.

After all, stepmom is difficult!

Xia Jing listened to her words, but just smiled, what did she think in her heart, there was no need to crumple it and tell it to the maid.

Ignore the bumps in the carriage, just drink tea like this, look at the scenery outside the car window, the days are much more comfortable than the end times!

After a while, Xia Jing seemed to remember something, turned her head and said to Hongmei: "We have been with the prince's team for a few days, and when we stop to rest, don't forget to go to Zeng Yan and ask him how to deal with the private property and private treasury of the concubine 'before her death'?" ”

Hearing this, the two eldest girls suddenly remembered that they had forgotten to return the princess's private wealth.

Compared with the princess's private property, the county lord's upbringing is insignificant.

Hongmei bowed her head and responded, "Yes, when it is time to rest and recuperate, the slave will go to the housekeeper." ”

"Well, what is the property of this concubine, I believe you know better than me, the master, and you will be responsible for this matter."

After that, Xia Jing's eyes turned to the window again, "The closer you get to Runan, the flatter the terrain, have you ever been to Runan?" ”

The two big girls shook their heads, they were sold when they were children, and they traveled to many places in the Dayu Dynasty, but Runan really never came.

Because of the flat terrain, the endless team looks quite imposing.

Many homeless people on the side of the road saw such a large procession and avoided it from a distance.

I opened the curtains to see the scenery, but I didn't expect that there were more and more displaced people on the roadside, many of them in groups, and some of them had ox carts in them.

When a cow urinated while walking regardless of its image, the dry weather made the smell of urine drift into the carriage with the wind, so smoked that Li Chengxian covered her nose, and did not forget to scold:

"You're all dead! Can't smell such a big smell? Why don't you put the curtain down yet! ”

The maid didn't dare to refute, and quickly lowered the curtain, but the smell in the carriage could not be dispersed for a while, coupled with the original incense in the mixed carriage, the smell was simply amazing!

It didn't last a while, and there was a sound of vomiting in the carriage.

"Parking, the main transfer in this county!"

The procession that was originally moving along the road was temporarily disrupted by her, and the convoy following her could only stop.

Hearing the commotion behind her, Xiao Shi, the wife of the Marquis of Changping, who was lying down and closed her eyes to recuperate, opened her eyes.

"Ma'am, are you awake?" The maid stepped forward and helped her to sit up.

Mrs. Changping Hou leaned on the couch and looked out the window, "What's going on outside?" ”

As soon as the noise outside started, a maid went out to understand the situation, and then she asked, and the maid who was standing on the wheel of the carriage and understood the situation lifted the curtain and came in.

"Mrs. Hui, it was Mrs. Shizi's carriage that stopped, saying that she wanted to change to another carriage. As soon as her carriage stopped, the convoy behind it also stopped, and everyone was a little caught off guard for a while, so the team was a little chaotic. ”

Mrs. Changping Hou sneered when she heard this: "Mrs. Ben has never seen such a hypocritical woman in her, you go and tell her, Mrs. Ben is invited!" ”

Since it's okay to give her a carriage alone, let's just ride with her.

The maid withdrew from the carriage.

Li Chengxian, who was about to occupy the carriage of her daughter-in-law behind, heard Mrs. Hou's invitation, and her momentum of commanding instantly stagnated.

She turned her head to look at the maid who came to deliver the message, and asked in disbelief, "What did you say?" What is the matter with Madame's invitation to me? ”

"I don't know what the slave is about." The maid stared down at her toes.

The eldest son's family, who was about to vacate the carriage, breathed a sigh of relief, they were all used to their own carriage, and they would definitely not be used to changing to one temporarily.

It doesn't matter if the grandmother calls her mother away, only the grandmother can suppress the mother in the entire Hou Mansion.

Li Chengxian straightened the hem of her skirt, helped the hair ornament on her head, and rubbed for a while before raising her feet and walking towards Mrs. Hou's carriage in front.

"Mother."

"Well, sit down."

In the eyes of Mrs. Marquis Changping, her son is the best, even if she is a princess, she feels that her son is wronged when he marries the county lord of King Qian's mansion.

Look at the county lord in front of him, he is brutal and willful, he is domineering, and he has been married into the Hou Mansion for 20 years.

Li Chengxian lowered her head, not noticing the look of disgust in the eyes of Mrs. Changping Marquis.

Mrs. Changping knocked on the wall of the carriage, and after a while the carriage moved.

She looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and asked lightly, "Say, what was the trouble just now?" ”

Li Chengxian smiled, "Mother, I didn't make trouble, I just ......"

Mrs. Changping Hou didn't want to listen to her quibble, so she interrupted without waiting for her to finish, "Didn't make trouble?" Just because your carriage stopped, the entire convoy behind it stopped, and you haven't made a fuss yet? Is it to make people turn their backs to make trouble? ”

She was 10,000 dissatisfied with this high-ranking daughter-in-law, but she was pitiful that she had a son, and she married a daughter-in-law with a higher status than her.

If it weren't for the fact that she has been pressing the other party with filial piety all these years, maybe the other party would have demolished the Hou Mansion a long time ago, how could she still have a good life as a mother-in-law.

looked at the other party sitting there with his head down and being as honest as a quail, and scolded in his heart: "Bully the soft and fear the hard!" ”

"Ahem!"

Li Chengxian heard the cough, reacted quickly, got up slightly, poured a glass of warm water and handed it to Mrs. Changping Hou, "Mother, your throat is uncomfortable, hurry up and take a sip of tea to moisten it." ”

Mrs. Changping Hou glanced at her, and she couldn't hear a happy and angry hum, and took the teacup and took a sip.

She returned the teacup to her before she spoke: "I heard that you didn't go to your mother to say hello yesterday to today?" ”

Li Chengxian put the teacup on the coffee table and said sneeringly: "Well, I didn't bother her old man when it was too late last night, and I was busy arranging some trivial things for the departure today, so I delayed it, and when I arrived at the place to rest in the evening, my daughter-in-law went to ask her mother to say goodbye." ”

Mrs. Changpinghou's tone slowed down, "Children can distinguish likes and dislikes, and adults only look at the pros and cons." When the Xia family married into the palace, you were already married, and Mrs. Ben knew that although you occupied the mother-daughter status, there was not much mother-daughter affection.

But after all, she is your elder, the team is next to each other, just the distance between the front and back feet, and you don't go to say hello to her, how will outsiders arrange you when they know? Outsiders will only think that our Mrs. Hou Shizi of Changping has a small belly and chicken intestines, which is not atmospheric enough. ”

The most important thing is that Hou Ye has always wanted to maintain a good relationship with King Qian's mansion.

If Li Chengxian is disrespectful to the Xia family, what will King Qian think? Would he think that she had listened to the instigation of the elders of the Hou Mansion before she dared to blatantly despise Princess Qian?
