Chapter 39: The Gift of Concubinage 400 diamonds plus more

Wen Wen has watched a lot of TV series, and the concubines in the family are all happy when they enter the door, waiting for the soaring and prosperous, worry-free food and clothing. The Xiao family is also a rich party, so the situation should be similar, right?

However, when the girl spoke, she was gently stunned.

"Meet Madame, the second young grandmother, and say hello to the two of you. ”

Alienated and indifferent voices, there was no emotion at all, the people in the happy hall were all stunned, but the people of the Xiao family seemed to be used to it, and there was no special reaction.

"Get up. Mrs. Xiao smiled and said, "Come and give tea to the second young grandmother." ”

"Yes. The girl answered, reached out and took the tea and handed it to Wen Wen.

Slender jade hands, the skin is smooth and no different from Du Wenwen. Gentleness paused, smiled and took the teacup, pretending to touch someone inadvertently.

The tentacles are like jade, how can such a girl be humble?

However, if it weren't for her humble status, how could Xiao Jingtang carry someone in from the side door to be her aunt?

took a sip of tea calmly, gently suppressed the doubts in his heart, and said to her with a smile: "Serve the second young master well." ”

"Yes. The girl was not interested, and after such a scene, she seemed to have no strength, and she held the hand of the maid next to her and retreated to the backyard.

The wedding hall was really lively, everyone sat down and began to greet the banquet, and Mrs. Xiao also took her to the chairman.

However, Xuanyuan Jing sat on the chairman, and Wen Wen shuddered when she saw it, hesitating to find an excuse to retreat, anyway, she was already full.

"You go to the backyard and see your new aunt. ”

Before she could find an excuse, Xiao Jingtang had already spoken: "There is no need to eat here." ”

"Shocking!" Mrs. Xiao was unhappy: "Rou'er is so cooperative today, why are you still like this?"

It's too much of a bully to not allow one's wife to sit on the chairman's meal! This is a concubine ceremony, and the one who should be comforted the most is the wife, and he still does such a conscienceless thing?

"Well, I'll go see my new sister. Gentle as if grasping a life-saving straw, she immediately said: "Don't worry, mother, Rou'er is not hungry, so let's go first." ”

"Hey......" Mrs. Xiao felt very guilty, watching her trot away with her skirt, she couldn't help but glare at Xiao Jingtang again: "You did a good thing!"

Second Young Master Xiao didn't explain, picked up the wine glass and calmly drank with others.

This concubine ceremony is said to be a concubine, but in fact, it is to find a reason for people to have the opportunity to get acquainted. The people who came were all his business friends, there were many rich and powerful people, and there were several key figures, and it was still necessary for the third prince to meet.

Xuanyuan Jing glanced at him, then looked at the direction where Gentle left, had something in his heart, thought about it, and still endured it without saying anything.

There shouldn't be any big problems, Xiao Jingtang is just easy to be soft-hearted.

Gently carrying her skirt and running to Xiaoyaoxuan, she glanced at the name on the plaque, and couldn't help but complain: "Where my daughter's family lives, what a broken name." ”

Shu Fang followed behind and said, "It's better than Aunt Ling's Tiger Roaring Pavilion." ”

Thinking about it, I flattened my mouth gently, stepped in and took a look.

This new aunt surnamed Yun, came to the Xiao family with three of her own maids, and the slaves assigned by the Xiao family were all busy in the courtyard, looked at it gently, and came forward to knock on the door.

"Who?" asked the cuckoo in the room, and he heard the outside, "It's me, the second young grandmother." ”

What is the second young grandmother doing here? Yun Dianrou took a deep breath, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and got up to open the door.

"There's still a banquet ahead, I'll talk to you. Wen Wen was smiling, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the girl's red eyes.

"What's wrong?"

"Let the second young grandmother laugh. Yun Dianyan whispered: "Yes, some." ”

Gentlely, he took her hand and went into the house to sit down, and smiled gently: "When you come here, make this your home, who else is there in your house?"

"Both parents died, and there was only one brother. Yun Dianyan opened his mouth, and tears were about to come up again: "My brother is very busy working in the field, and he can't take care of me, so he sent me here to be an aunt." ”

The farmer's child's expression moved slightly, and he gently stretched out his hand and handed her a jade bracelet: "Poor child, this is a meeting gift, you accept it." ”

"Thank you, ma'am. He took the jade bracelet and looked at it, the color was average, not valuable, and the cloud was placed on the pillow at will.

Where can a real peasant child tell the difference between good and bad jade? When he sees a jade bracelet, he should wear it happily. Gently lowered her eyes, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

What was the reason for her to lie?

After not sitting for a while, Yun Dianrou closed the door on the grounds that he was not feeling well. Gently touching her chin and walking on the road, she asked Shu Fang: "Do you think the aunt in this courtyard has feelings for our second young master?"

"How could it be?" Shu Fang said: "A few aunts do not fight or fight on weekdays, but there are always a few days in January when they will secretly hide in their own houses and cry. The second young master went to the backyard very little, and he didn't like them very much, and the aunts were also pitiful, married and became concubines, and they didn't have a good life. ”

Hey, will you secretly cry in the room? Gentle is a little surprised, if you can cry, it's not very ruthless, what is going on between Xiao Jingtang and a few aunts?

Back in the West Courtyard, just as he was about to enter the door, Gentle was startled by the scene inside.

The four aunts sat in her flower hall, happily rubbing mahjong.

Glancing at the big red silk hanging outside, if it weren't for the faint noise of the guests, Wen Rou really thought that today was just an ordinary day, and these women could still play mahjong as usual.

"Second young grandmother is back?" Murong Yin called her, came over and pulled her with a smile and said, "You come to fight for the concubine, the concubine is unlucky today, and lost them a few taels of silver." ”

Gentleness sat down and glanced at her cards.

Damn, the seven little ones are all right, and they are still called unlucky?

Silently buttoned the card, gently touched a card back with a very veteran, and leaned on a pile of cards on his own: "Self-draw, every family is full." ”

"Huh?" The three aunts on the other side all had dark faces, and hurriedly said, "Don't help her fight, the second young grandmother will come and sit next to her!"

"Come next to me. Ling Wanmei hurriedly carried the stool, smiled gently, pulled Murong Yin back to collect the cashier, and then sat down obediently, holding his chin and thinking about things.

"Is the second young grandmother unhappy?" Ruan Miaomeng suddenly asked her.

Unhappy?gently shook his head: "No, I just think it's a little strange, the new aunt doesn't seem to be very willing to marry the second young master." ”

"Hi, normal. Ruan Miaomeng smiled: "It's good to wait for her to accept it, aren't we very good here? ”

It's just that the person you like will not come to your side.

Gently raised his head, looked at her and asked, "You don't like me, is it because of the second young master?"

Everyone was stunned, and they all turned around and looked at her with a strange look: "Second young grandmother, don't you remember what you did to us before?"

"Huh? He laughed dryly twice, and gently wiped his face: "Okay, I used to be unliable, but isn't our yard a little calmer, haven't you considered competing for the second young master?"

"Two cylinders. ”

"I want two cylinders!"

"I'm also a fool!"

"I'll touch it!"

The four women suddenly chattered over a card, ignoring the gentle words.

Well, gentleness can be understood, Second Young Master Xiao may not be as good as a second master in their eyes.

When it was time for dinner to play a card, Ling Wanmei yawned and led everyone to get up and say goodbye. However, when she walked out, she still took two steps slower, stayed behind and looked at her gentlely, and said: "The fate of the women in our yard is beyond their own control, it is already so miserable, why should women still be embarrassed by women?"

If you don't fight or grab, you can get by anyway.

looked at her in a daze, and gently found that Ling Wangmei was actually very good-looking, and there was a kind of elegance in his facial features, but between his eyebrows, there was also a desolation that could not be erased.

What is the story behind her? Gently smiling and bowing her head, she watched her go away, and was about to turn around and go back to the house, when she saw someone leading the kitchen maid over again.

"Eat. Xiao Jingtang only spit out these two words, and then carried her into the hall and sat down.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing his gentleness, he got angry again: "You are the one who doesn't give me food, and you are the one who is forcing me to eat now?"

"Forcing you to eat?" Xiao Jingtang raised his eyebrows, reached out and took the food box in the little girl's hand and opened it: "If you don't eat it, then let people pour it." ”

The familiar fragrance is two taels of meat! The gentle saliva broke the embankment instantly, grabbed the food box, held it and sniffed it for a long time, and then glanced at the person in front of him suspiciously: "You kidnapped the cook of Zhenyuzhai back?"

With a cold snort, Xiao Jingtang didn't speak, and made a gesture to snatch the food box in her hand.

"Hey, don't, I can't eat!" opened his mouth and bit his hand, gently guarding the food box like protecting a child, and said indignantly: "How many people in the world can't afford to eat, why are you so wasteful!"

"Then you eat quickly. Second Young Master Xiao said expressionlessly: "If there is anything else you want to eat, you can also tell me again." ”

Gentleness: "......"

Maybe she was used to listening to this person's roar, and suddenly said something like this, and she actually felt that he was a little gentle.

Everything in the world is indeed made by comparison.

Silently eating the food, he looked up gently, and saw that the man had handed over another plate of mung bean cake. It's still two fingers wide, carved, and full of fragrance.

"Do you think you can make me forgive you by taking the food?" while stuffing it into his mouth, he said softly and spinelessly: "No way!"

With a sneer, Xiao Jingtang squinted at her, his eyes full of mockery. But the hand holding the plate did not let go, and let her eat piece by piece until the plate was empty.

"The day after tomorrow is the Ceramics Congress. After she swallowed everything, he said: "It's very important, it's about the Xiao family's income in ceramics in the coming year, you have to look good." ”
