But now being brought up by Xiao Qiao's face to face, Ren Yaohua is also in a dilemma. Saying that Yanbei didn't have this rule, would inevitably be caught by Xiao Qiao's, and in front of Lei Pan'er. But Ren Yaohua can't take it seriously because Xiao Qiao's words have reopened the ancestral hall to perform concubines. She is now the mistress of the Lei family, and she cannot be despised by someone who lives in the Lei family.
Lei Ting frowned and was about to say something, but Ren Yaohua glanced in his direction and stopped what Lei Ting was about to say. She knew that Lei Ting could not let Lei Ting rescue her at this time.
At this moment, Lei Pan'er said ignorantly, "What is a concubine ceremony?"
"Pan'er come here, the second uncle will take you back to clean up your gadgets?" Lei Zhen greeted Lei Pan'er.
Lei Pan'er looked at the adults in the room. Although she was young, she sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and was hesitating to leave with Lei Zhen, but Xiao Qiao pursed her lips and said coldly: " Why is Erye Lei in such a hurry to take Pan'er away, Pan'er is the only blood my sister left behind, and she should be present at this time."
No matter how good-tempered Lei Zhen was, he wasn't happy at this time. Lei Pan'er was just a child, how could such a thing be brought up in front of a child.
Xiao Qiao did not wait for Lei Zhen and others to stop him and explained to Lei Pan'er directly: "Concubine ceremony, that is, the wife needs to kowtow to your mother's tablet to say hello. If you enter the door at night, there must be a rule for entering the door late, just follow the elder. Young and orderly, there is a reason for the difference between the descendants."
As soon as Xiao Qiao's remarks came out, the atmosphere at the scene became a little stagnant.
Lei Pan'er turned to look at Ren Yaohua and fell silent.
Xiao Qiao couldn't help bending the corners of her mouth. She was about to go forward and pull Lei Pan'er to her side, but Lei Pan'er suddenly raised her head and said, "My mother wouldn't do this."
Xiao Qiao's face stiffened: "What?"
Lei Pan'er said seriously: "Although Pan'er has forgotten her mother's appearance, Pan'er knows that her mother is a very kind and good person, and the people in the house also say the same. So mother, she will definitely not embarrass her like Pan'er. Human. A few days ago, Pan’er dreamed of her. Pan’er told her mother that Sister Yaohua was going to be Pan’er’s mother, and her mother said that she would bless us in the sky, and also said that Sister Yaohua was a good person, let me in the future Be obedient." At the end, Lei Pan'er had tears in her eyes and sobbed softly.
Naturally, Lei Pan'er, a child, couldn't think of such words, but at the beginning, her wet nurse always said in front of her that her biological mother would definitely bless her. And Lei Zhen also often taught this little niece to listen to her mother's words carefully when her new mother came in. That's why Lei Pan'er dreamed that Qiao Shi said this to her.
Ren Yaohua was very distressed when he saw Lei Pan'er's appearance, and quickly pulled Lei Pan'er to his side, hugged her carefully and coaxed her softly. The adults are intrigued, but the children are involved. No matter how Ren Yaohua is now willing to believe that Xiao Qiao really loves Lei Pan'er, she secretly made up her mind that she will never let Xiao Qiao get close to Lei Pan'er.
It's just what Lei Pan'er just said made Ren Yaohua feel very warm. Although Lei Pan'er might not understand what she just said, he helped Ren Yaohua in time.
It's not good for Lei Ting to make a clearance for Ren Yaohua at this time, but Lei Pan'er can.
Xiao Qiao's face was very ugly, she didn't expect Lei Pan'er to say such a thing. Lei Paner would never refute what she usually said, but now it was for an outsider. Little Joe was very sad.
Lei Ting got up and said indifferently: "Pan'er go back with your mother first. The second brother and I will go to the outer courtyard to deal with some things." Lei Ting walked out with his long legs as he spoke, with no expression of joy and anger on his face.
Ren Yaohua stopped crying when she saw Lei Pan'er. He led her out. He didn't even look at Little Joe.
Xiao Qiao opened her mouth and looked at Lei Pan'er, hesitantly trying to keep up, but Xiang Qin pushed her up and blocked her way.
Xiang Qinpi looked at Xiao Qiao with a smile, but she spoke very respectfully and politely: "My aunt, please stay. Now our wife is going to take our young lady back to the main courtyard. Your identity is probably a bit inappropriate from the past, right? How can you say that it is still a new house! The slave will send the concubine back. Oh, if you need anything, feel free to ask. Since you are temporarily staying in the Lei family, you are the honored guest of our Lei family. We Of course you will be treated well."
At this time, Ren Yaohua had already led Lei Pan'er to the front, Xiangqin glanced at the corner of her eyes, then pulled the corner of her mouth and lowered her voice: "However, how can you say that you are also a guest? So in order not to cause trouble to the host family, can you please not be too casual during the time when you are a guest in our Lei family? Tsk, you are so familiar with yourself, we are sometimes really embarrassed! It looks like there are guests! It's impossible for someone who understands the messy 'etiquette' like the concubine to understand these truths?"
Xiao Qiao listened to Xiangqin, the daring maid, and her face turned pale: "You..."
Taking advantage of the fact that no one saw Xiang Qin, she rolled her eyes with a very inelegant look, and said in a low voice, baring her teeth, "That's right, girl, I'm just holding up the highs and stepping on the lows! Who wants you to be so arrogant? If you want money but don't have money, you need a backer. If you don't want to step on you, who will you step on!"
Xiao Qiao was almost fainted by her words, she raised her hand and was about to hit her in the face, Xiangqin raised her hand to block it, but Yu Guang glanced at the old maid from the Lei family walking over, and quickly changed The previous one looked like she was about to cry: "Don't be angry, concubine, our wife just took her back to coax her because she was distressed. It was definitely not intentional to neglect you and let a servant girl come to greet you. Don't call our lady rude. , the slaves apologized to you."
When the maids and wives of the Lei family saw it, they all looked at the little Qiao Shi who raised his hand and gestured to beat someone, with some disapproval in their eyes. They all knew that Xiangqin was the big maid brought by the wife, and it was up to the owner to beat the dog. And listening to the maid's words, Xiao Qiao's temperament is a bit too big, and she really thinks that she is the master of the Lei family.
Xiang Qin didn't look at Xiao Qiao's face, she bowed to her, and left with a sad face. The remaining little Qiao Shi was speechless.
Xiangqin triumphantly went after her master, and before she went far, she saw the turnip waiting for her. Turnip looked at her dejected appearance, reached out and tapped her on the head, warning: "Be restrained and cause less trouble for the master!"
Xiangqin's nostrils are about to go to the sky: "Humph! Anyone who is a cat or a dog dares to come to our miss! This maid won't kill her!"
Turnip glared at Xiangqin helplessly, and couldn't help laughing again: "The one you learned from there?" Turnip and Xiangqin grew up together, and they had a tacit understanding. Shi knew that she was going to do something bad, so he kept standing not far away to look at the wind, and he was very happy to see her trembling with Xiao Qiao's anger.
Xiang Qin took the turnip to the main courtyard, waving her hand and saying, "Isn't it the same as 'with the red top and white'! How could a servant who can't read a dish and serve? It's just that I'm too kind on weekdays. So don't mind it!"
Turnip nearly choked on her cheekiness.
Ren Yaohua didn't know that her sturdy maid had secretly helped her out, but she just took Lei Pan'er back to the main room.
"Pan'er would like to live with your father and me in the main courtyard in the future?" Ren Yaohua pulled Lei Pan'er to sit down on the Nankang and asked her with his head down.
Lei Pan'er's eyes were still red, she nodded when she heard the words, and said softly, "Yes."
Ren Yaohua touched her head.
"Mother, isn't my aunt unhappy?" Lei Pan'er tugged at the tassels on Ren Yaohua's dress, and muttered.
"Why are you unhappy?" Ren Yaohua asked.
Lei Pan'er pouted: "Because my aunt always wanted me to move in with her, I didn't go. And she seemed very angry when I said that."
Ren Yaohua was a little curious: "Didn't Pan'er like her aunt? Why didn't you agree to live with her?"
Lei Pan'er frowned and thought for a long time, then shook his head: "I don't know, Daddy didn't agree either."
Ren Yaohua sighed and touched her head again, Lei Paner was so well-behaved and sensible that it was distressing.
In the afternoon, after Ren Yaohua ordered the West Wing to be cleaned up, he ordered Lei Pan'er's things to be brought back. Although Lei Paner is small, she has a lot of things, all of which were prepared for her by her second uncle Lei Zhen over the past few years. There are two boxes of little puppets carefully sewn by the maids alone. It's really hard to dote on, no wonder Lei Pan'er is closer to his second uncle than his father.
So on the second day after Ren Yaohua married into Lei's family, Lei Pan'er came back to the main courtyard to live in the main courtyard, making Xiao Qiao's calculations come to nothing in the end. And Xiao Qiao didn't know if it was stimulated by Xiangqin. There was no movement for two days in a row, and she didn't offer to come to see Lei Pan'er. Ren Yaohua also invited a doctor to the house for her to see a doctor.
On the third day, it was the day when Ren Yaohua returned home for three dynasties.
Early in the morning, Lei Ting took Ren Yaohua and Lei Pan'er to Ren's house in Baoping Hutong.
As soon as Ren Yaohua entered the room, Ren Yaoqi took a look at her complexion. Seeing her brows and eyes were full of energy, her face was rosy, and the sight of Lei Ting's eyes twitched in her eyes. She was faintly shy, and the last stone in her heart was put down.
Afterwards, Lei Ting followed Mr. Ren San to the study to play chess, while Lei Paner was carried by Shui Ai and Xiangqin to the backyard to pick pomegranates. Mr. Li left Ren Yaohua to speak his own words in the room. Ren Yaoqi also took advantage of the situation to stay, sitting on the side with a smile and listening to Li's detailed inquiry, but did not open his mouth to express his opinion.
When the family was having dinner together, Ren Yaoqi heard Lei Ting and Mr. Ren San casually mentioning that the concubine of Yanbei Wangfu was going to do a big job on her 60th birthday this year.
