Chapter 088: Rumors
A few days later.
"Old lady, the garden and all the yards have been cleaned, and even the roof tiles and beams have been wiped down, including those cups and bowls of porcelain, to ensure that every corner is bright!"
Mama Lei had a smile on her face, "It's still Mrs. Shizi who has the ability, and the old slave feels that the Hou Mansion is like the New Year, which is like the little slut who tossed the mansion up and down to death, this time it must be foolproof!" ”
Old Madam Liu looked at the busy figures around her and nodded with satisfaction, "Yunxian is the most careful, and she can talk to the old princess, this is the key, even if there is anything inconsiderate in the Hou Mansion, the old princess will not care." ”
She was dressed in full costume today, as if she was going to enter the palace to face the saints.
You must know that since the old Hou Ye died in battle, no one has come to visit the Hou Mansion for a long time, and the old princess's trip made Mrs. Liu feel that the Hou Mansion seemed to have returned to its former heyday, and she couldn't help but be excited.
"It's coming! The carriage of the Pingnan Royal Mansion is here! ”
The steward's excited voice sounded, and soon, everyone gathered at the gate of the Hou Mansion, and the scene was extremely grand.
After a while, the figure of the old princess slowly got out of the carriage.
Princess Pingnan had a respectful smile on her face, and stretched out her hand to hold the old princess, but she dodged without a trace.
"Mrs. Hou, it's really unpleasant to suddenly disturb you, it's windy outside, what are you doing here? I don't like to stir up a lot of people. ”
Compared with the last time they met, the old princess's attitude towards Mrs. Liu was much kinder, which made her feel overjoyed, "Where is the old princess, when the old princess and the Hou Ye were both alive, the two families were already close, and they should come and go often." ”
When she said this, she also glanced at Princess Pingnan with a smile.
That scene did not escape the eyes of Mrs. Liu, she could see it clearly, the old princess may not have come to save face for Princess Pingnan this time, and it is not a matter of a day or two for her sister-in-law to be unwelcome, how can she say that it will change.
"Mrs. Hou is right, relatives should come and go more."
As soon as the old princess's voice fell, Old Madam Liu was about to hold her hand, but unexpectedly it fell into the air, her gaze immediately crossed over and fell on Xia Yunxian's body, "Good boy, let me see, I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you miss you so much!" ”
"Yunxian also misses the old princess, and I planned to go to the palace to ask for a pulse after a while."
"Somewhere will be a while, I'm not here now."
The two are intimate, as if they are a pair of grandchildren.
The smile on Old Madam Liu's face immediately froze, and she soon noticed Princess Pingnan's mocking eyes.
Her sister-in-law is too self-righteous, thinking that if she gives a little good color, she is her own family? Don't weigh your own ability, and embarrass her!
Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, the old princess took Xia Yunxian away, without the slightest intention of waiting for others.
"I have all stolen the limelight from my daughter-in-law, and my sister-in-law is really calm." Princess Pingnan came to Mrs. Liu, her disdainful gaze fell on the gold ornaments on her head, and she secretly scolded a fool in her heart.
He also specially explained in the letter that he asked Mrs. Liu to be cautious in her words and deeds, and take care of the face of the Liu family, but face is not piled up by jewelry!
At the beginning, she thought that her eldest brother had married a stupid woman, but she didn't expect that after so many years, it would still be so vulgar!
"It's better for me to be robbed of the limelight by my own daughter-in-law than by someone else's daughter-in-law, right?" Old Madam Liu smiled, and now she was not polite at all.
Her son and daughter-in-law are all out of the picture, so why do you need to look at other people's faces?
"Cousin is just doing a job now, isn't he? Otherwise, my aunt will have the face of the ascension of chickens and dogs, and those who don't know will think that you have entered the cabinet! ”
The county lord of Wanting, who was following behind, couldn't help but come to Liu Chengyu's side and sneered, in the past, Mrs. Liu didn't dare to speak like this, it was really eye-catching!
Liu Chengyu was not annoyed, but pretended to be surprised, "Why is my cousin here too?" I thought you were already married, but I wonder you didn't get this cup of wine...... By the way, I think about it, it seems that Huo Dagongzi has already left the Huo family in order to refuse marriage. ”
Looking at the smile on his face, the county lord's expression changed, and he pinched the handkerchief in his sleeve hatefully.
Damn Huo Changsheng, obviously he didn't want him, he dared to make the movement known to everyone, and the Huo family was even more useless, knowing that he was leaving, wouldn't it be enough to break his leg directly?
Looking at her iron-green face, Liu Chengyu sneered, this is the Hou Mansion, the territory of the Liu family, but she can't be allowed to be so wild!
"The son of the world is really unusual now." Seeing that her daughter was ridiculed, Princess Pingnan leaned over gracefully, Liu Chengyu suddenly restrained her expression and saluted, "Auntie, Cheng Yu doesn't dare, it's just a relative, Cheng Yu is worried that the county lord will be hurt by the rumors, so he kindly reminded him." ”
Princess Pingnan raised her eyebrows, "You still have to worry about yourself, there are a lot of rumors about you outside." ”
Liu Chengyu raised his head suspiciously, and heard her laugh.
"It's been so long since you returned to Beijing, but your niece and daughter-in-law's stomach still hasn't moved, plus you actually offended the two colleges for a mere stepson, and everyone outside is speculating that you are sick and can't get pregnant."
Looking at his increasingly ugly face, Princess Pingnan immediately lowered her voice, "Otherwise, my aunt will help you find a royal doctor with a tight mouth?" ”
Outrageous!
He actually said that he was sick?!
"Cousin, it's all a family, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, don't support it alone, we will help you."
The county lord of Huanting smiled gloatingly, you must know that saying that a man can't give birth is the ultimate humiliation, see if he dares to make fun of her about marriage again!
"Don't bother my aunt, I don't ...... with Yunxian at all."
"Just what? Shizi, no matter how much you hate her, you should also be afraid of the eloquence of youyou. ”
Princess Pingnan thought that Xia Yunxian was not liked by Liu Chengyu, so she rarely got close, so there was no good news for a long time, and she didn't expect that they would never have a round house.
Looking at the proud mother and daughter in front of him, Liu Chengyu only felt full of irritability.
When he followed him to the front hall, he saw that the old princess had already chatted with Xia Yunxian.
"Oh? I didn't expect you kid to know the art of war! ”
The old princess's face was full of surprise, Xia Yunxian replied modestly, "My father used to talk to us about the war whenever he came back from the battle. ”
"No wonder I'm so in love with you, I'm too, I get sleepy when I hear any poems and songs, when I was a child, I was counted down by my mother, saying that the mandarin duck I embroidered is like a wild duck in the mountains!"
The hearty laughter immediately echoed throughout the hall, and the old princess's wanton joy shocked everyone speechless for a while.
