Chapter 169: A few words made her face darken

On the way up to the private room on the second floor, the shopkeeper chattered endlessly to introduce them to the new jewelry in the store.

Duchess Guo and Mrs. Shen listened with a faint expression, and never said a word.

Just as the group was about to enter the private room, Mrs. Fengning Hou and her daughter Hu Xiangrao happened to come out of the private room next to them.

Mrs. Fengninghou pretended to be surprised, and greeted her with a smile, "Duchess Xiangguo, Mrs. Fu, it's really rare, you also come here to see the jewelry?" ”

Duchess and Mrs. Shen glanced at each other, and a sneer crossed their eyes.

"Yes, Mrs. Fengninghou is good." The Duchess replied lightly, and was about to turn around her.

Mrs. Shen was even more cold, and she didn't answer Mrs. Feng Ninghou's words, only nodded at her, and followed the Duchess of Guo.

Seeing this, Mrs. Fengninghou did not show the slightest dissatisfaction with being refuted, she smiled and stepped to the side, and then faced the Duchess again, she eagerly continued,

"Will the Duchess of Xiangguo actually patronize this Yaozhu Pavilion? I often take Xiangrao to take a look, but I haven't met the Duchess once. When the Duchess comes back to China, she might as well invite us to join us and have a word. ”

This Yaozhu Pavilion is not a teahouse tavern, the private rooms are just separated by curtains, and Mrs. Fengninghou's voice is not loud or small, and everyone sitting in the private room can hear it.

Her words, at first glance, seem to be polite between ladies, but in fact, she is clearly saying that the Duchess never brings her daughter to Yaozhu Pavilion to see jewelry on weekdays, why did she come today.

The Duchess of the Kingdom took Qin Xuanyi out to break these rumors, but when Mrs. Fengninghou said this, she wanted to cover it up.

Qin Xuanyi looked at Mrs. Fengninghou's triumphant appearance, and thought that when Hu Xiangrao deliberately splashed her with tea yesterday, she also looked like this.

She looked at the disgusting faces of the mother and daughter, her chest churned, and she couldn't help but think of the rude and hideous behavior of the imperial grandson yesterday, and she trembled with anger.

At this time, her shoulders warmed.

Qin Xuanyi raised her head, it was her brother Qin Xiaoyan, who gently supported her.

The fear and anger in the little girl's heart gradually dissipated, and she bent the corners of her mouth with great effort to show that she was okay.

Qin Xiaoyan twisted his eyebrows, patted her distressedly, handed Jingqing to his sister, and he stepped forward to stand beside his mother.

When the Duchess heard the words of Fengning Hou's mother and daughter, her face was cold, and her already cold and detached gaze was even more fierce.

Before she could speak, Qin Xiaoyan, who came over, had already said softly,

"That's not my anymore, I'm always busy in the household department on weekdays, and I never think of accompanying my mother and sister to visit the shop, it's really not right. It's really something that Mrs. Lao Fengninghou mentioned. ”

As soon as the Duchess heard this, she knew what her son meant, she smiled and said, "You are busy with you, your sister doesn't like to go out, and your mother asked the shopkeeper of Yaozhu Pavilion to send the new jewelry to the house, and it is the same." ”

The shopkeeper next to him looked at this situation, his eyes rolled, and he immediately responded with a smile.

"Yes, yes, the Duchess is right, the things in the Guogong Mansion can look down on the things of the small shop, it is the honor of the small shop! Every time the little one is gone, I wish the whole store would be moved over for Miss Qin to choose. ”

In the face of the wives of these two families, which one's wives are heavier, the reaction from the shopkeeper has been very clear.

Qin Xiaoyan looked at the two people in front of him coldly, although the corners of his mouth were smiling gently, but the aura around him was powerful and cold.

When the mother said this, she was even more ashamed of her son. Deputy General Hu of the Fengning Hou family walks in the Imperial Forest Army all day long, but he is much busier than his son, but he can often escort his mother and sister out. ”

A few words made Mrs. Fengninghou's face darken.

Later, Fu Ya quietly grabbed Qin Xuanyi and bit her ear, "Your brother's words are really poking at Mrs. Fengninghou's heart, who in the capital doesn't know that Fengninghou's eldest son is at odds with his mother-in-law." ”

However, when the nobles in the capital traveled, they should have their sons and brothers or younger brothers with them, and Mrs. Fengninghou took her daughter out to walk around all day long, which was particularly frivolous.

Qin Xuanyi listened to her brother give her a head, and her anger dissipated a lot, she said softly to Fu Ya, "I didn't know that my eldest brother would choke people, I quarrel with him on weekdays, he is just a stuffy gourd, and he won't talk back." ”

Fu Ya listened to her tone with a little disgust, and glared at her angrily, "Isn't this good!" My brother will only discipline me! And every time he asked me not to speak, listen to him lecture me first, how is that possible! I'm not stupid. ”
