For dinner, Mu Yunyao ordered two extra dishes. The pantry didn't dare to cut corners at all, and the taste was very good. The mother and daughter were very happy to eat.
After the meal, Jin Lan and Jin Qiao came over with fragrant tea, and the mother and daughter talked separately: "Yao'er, what happened in the palace, why did the attitudes of the Meng family and the Su family change so much at once. ?"
Su Qing still had an unreal feeling, especially that Meng Yanran, wasn't she arrogant before, why did she come to apologize in person today, and even asked Yun Yao if she would forgive her after being slapped. Mu Yunyao recounted what happened in the palace today to Su Qing, and her thoughts flowed in her eyes: "...that's probably how I entered the palace today. The last sentence asked me to call back, and after I came back, I thought about it
However, it should be that the Meng family did something that made the emperor Longxin unhappy. "
"I think so too. After all, the Meng family is not an ordinary official's family. I heard that the concubine in the palace is the daughter of the current Taishi Meng. Although she said that she has no children of her own, she seems to be a little weak in the palace. I can't stand her being favored by the emperor, and she is very popular!"
Mu Yunyao was a little curious: "Where did your mother hear about it?"
"It was Siqin who told me."
"Siqin?" Su Qing gave her a slightly resentful look: "Although my mother grew up in the countryside, she doesn't have much knowledge, but she is not stupid. The four Siqin girls are not only outstanding in their skills, but also in their line of work. It is absolutely impossible to buy it from Renya Zi for six liang of money.
, Mother thought about it carefully for a long time, the most likely result is that these four people were cultivated by Ning Gongzi. "
Mu Yunyao pursed her lips slightly: "I let my mother see it, I didn't intend to hide it from you, but I'm afraid you will be worried about these four people in the future..."
"Yao'er, you... You really fell in love with that young master Ning?" Su Qing felt that he should plan carefully. Seeing that in more than two months, Yun Yao will be ready to marry, and they are helpless. But the Su family can't let the intervention of the Su family ruin Yun Yao's second half of life.
Mu Yunyao was stunned, and then quickly shook her head: "Why does my mother think so? It's impossible for me and him." Su Qing patted the back of her hand, with a smile on her face: "Mother also Come here, after a while, you will be an adult, and it is not too early to think about your life's major events in advance. It just so happens that we have come to Kyoto now, isn't that Young Master Ning also here
His portal is good, and he's interested in you, just in time..."
Mu Yunyao hurriedly explained: "Mother, don't think about it, Ning Gongzi and I are just working together to earn some money. If you say it nicely, you can be called friends, but if you say it badly, it's just mutual use. "
"Yao'er, mother knows that because of your past events, you will inevitably feel heavy, but you can't stop eating because of choking, you..." "Mother, aren't we talking about the Meng family? How did you get involved with that Ning Gongzi, now? We are in Su's house, and we can't even stand still. How can we think about those things? Besides, you can see that Mr. Ning is now in his twenties, so how old are the children
"
"Where there are children, I have inquired, that Ning Gongzi doesn't even have a concubine through the room..."
"Mother, who did you inquire with?" Did her mother misunderstand something, asking if King Yue had a concubine and a concubine
Su Qing coughed a little embarrassedly: "I just chatted with Steward Qin and said a few words..."
Mu Yunyao was a little stunned. Steward Qin had been avoided by people when she met King Yue several times. Although her attitude was not obvious, she could vaguely feel the meaning of matchmaking. My mother and Steward Qin talked about this and couldn't tell. When he turned around, the King of Yue knew, what would he think
Seeing Mu Yunyao's appearance, Su Qing thought she was embarrassed by her thin skin, so she changed the subject wisely: "Yao'er, let's talk about the Meng family, after today's events, I think that Miss Meng left. The eyes at that time were really chilling, she won't find fault again in the future, right?" Mu Yunyao came back to her senses, feeling that she was once again confused by King Yue, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, and quickly put all her thoughts behind her. "Mother, don't worry too much, Meng Yanran acts domineeringly, even when she treats her sisters in the family, she usually bullies them with petting, but now she suddenly loses power. Those who are bullied by her on weekdays, How can you let her go so easily? And those wives and concubines who are looking forward to their daughter being favored, they didn't feel that when they were proud before, and when they were disappointed, they realized that they had made many enemies, and it was she who should be worried.
. "
"Well, my mother can rest assured." Mu Yunyao understood that things would not end like this. Although Meng Yanran didn't have to worry too much, the Meng family would definitely hate her because of this matter, especially It's the concubine Virtue in the palace, and her heart has never been big. It's just that these things haven't happened yet.
There is no need to let the mother worry about it first, so there is no need to say it.
"The matter of holding the banquet has been decided. I may not have seen my adoptive mother for a long time. Speaking of which, I really miss her."
"Yeah, when the banquet is held, I can meet you just in time."
"Um."
Su Qing and Mu Yunyao talked for a while, then went back to rest.
The eldest lady couldn't eat a single bite of the food in the room. Su Yuyi carefully sat next to her: "Mother, it's already like this. It's useless to think too much. You should eat something." The eldest lady also understands this truth, but the more she wants Mu Yunyao to raise her hand and slap Meng Yanran. The more anger she felt in her heart, the more angry she suddenly threw the chopsticks in her hand: "I beat geese all day long, but I didn't expect to be pecked in the eye by geese." Who would have thought that a girl from the countryside would be able to
To be so insolent
"Mother, it's all my daughter's fault. If I hadn't been too impatient and invited Yanran's cousin over, things wouldn't have developed as they are today."
"I don't blame you, even without Meng Yanran, Mu Yunyao would think of other options. She wanted to take this advantage to make the Su family go from master to slave, and no one dared to be small. Look at her and Su Qing!"
"Mother, my daughter really can't understand, how could the emperor agree to her to fight Yanran's cousin?" "A few days ago, the Li family was in trouble during the inspection of the salt administration, and your grandmother didn't know where she heard a few words of instigation. He secretly took action against the eldest prince, but not only did he fail, on the contrary, he stole chickens without losing money, and made the eldest prince cry in front of the emperor how pitiful he was, the emperor
He dislikes party disputes the most, so it is inevitable that he has a grudge against the Meng family in his heart, and this time it is just a warning. "In any case, my aunt has served the emperor in the palace for many years, and the Meng family has also made a lot of contributions to the imperial court. The emperor's move is really chilling!" "
