Su Ningxin said understandingly, "You can eat it. If you like it, eat more, otherwise it will be wasted."
Su Ningxin was the master, so naturally it was impossible for them to eat at the same table. Although they were allowed to sit down because they were outside, they had to wait until Su Ningxin finished eating before they could use their chopsticks.
After Mo Xiang and Shuang Bai thanked their master, they picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
Su Ning chatted casually, "Polo is really interesting. It's much more interesting than those poetry and cocktail parties in the capital. I want to go see it tomorrow."
[Lin Yue next door, did you hear that? If you need something, come see me at the polo field tomorrow.]
When Mo Xiang, who was eating, heard what the Crown Princess said, he naturally couldn't let his master go without a response, so he quickly swallowed the food in his mouth.
"It would be a good time for the Crown Princess to go tomorrow. Tomorrow is the day when several princes of the princes and princes have an appointment to compete. If the Crown Princess goes there, she can watch a wonderful polo match."
"Let me tell you, why do you think the young master on the polo field is practicing so hard today? It turns out there is a competition coming soon." Su Ningxin suddenly realized, and then said happily,
"Then I must go tomorrow. When I get home, I will also ask my mother and concubine. It is not good for my mother and concubine to be in the house all the time. We can come out together to get some fresh air."
By the time the maids and guards had finished eating, Lin Yue and his party at the next table had already left. Su Ningxin didn't plan to hang around anymore and went straight back home.
The main reason was that maybe Shuangbai was originally from the North, so the food didn't taste bad and tasted very delicious. Su Ningxin didn't take a few bites, so she felt very hungry and eager to go home to fill up her stomach. abdomen.
Seeing Su Ningxin's leaving figure, Princess Yaoyi in the private room on the second floor curled her lips and said disdainfully, "What else can you say about the noble daughter of the Hou Mansion? She is not as rude as a lady from aristocratic family should be. Looks like that, even wearing a veil to show off.”
The maids who followed her were too shy to speak.
When Su Ningxin returned to the gate of the County Prince's Mansion, she met the Meng family's carriage that had arrived at the gate before her.
"Who is coming to the house?" Su Ningxin asked while riding a horse and looking at the familiar carriage.
Mo Xiang looked at the maid in front of the carriage and said, "The eldest girl must have returned home."
[Chu Qingzhu? Could it be that she came back because of her mother's affairs? The speed of receiving news was too slow. People had to send her to the ancestral hall before she came back. ] Su Ningxin complained silently.
"What do you mean by blocking the door?" Shuangbai said dissatisfied.
"My slave, go up and ask." Mo Xiang asked Su Ningxin for instructions. Su Ningxin nodded and motioned for her to come over.
Originally, Su Ningxin didn't feel that she had to enter through the front entrance. After all, it was more convenient for the group of people to let their horses go through the side entrance,? But her not wanting to leave is not the same thing as others blocking her from letting her go.
Now that Chu Qingzhu was blocking the door like this, some people who didn't know it thought he was trying to give her younger siblings who were out for fun a showdown. Naturally, Su Ningxin refused to give in.
Soon Mo Xiang came back and said to Su Ning, "The eldest princess wants to go back to her parents' home, but the princess won't let her in because..."
"Say what?"
"It is said that the eldest girl's aunt has just been punished and locked up in the ancestral hall. After all, the eldest girl is the head wife of the Meng family. If she is allowed to meet Mrs. Ying, the Meng family will definitely look down on the eldest girl. How will she gain a foothold in the Meng family in the future. "
"What the mother-in-law said makes sense." Su Ningxin said calmly.
Everyone knew what the real situation was. Chu Qingzhu made the princess hate her and refused to let her in. However, no one could say that the princess's rhetoric was wrong. No one could say that the princess's actions were mean to the concubine.
Su Ningxin looked at Mo Xiang and asked, "Why doesn't she hide away?"
Mo Xiang hesitated for a moment, and then said truthfully, "The eldest lady said that the carriage she brought was too much to move around, so it's not too late for you to wait until she gets in."
"She really dares to think about it." Su Ningxin sneered.
Others can't understand her little thoughts, but she just wants to stop her. When the time comes, the princess will not be able to watch the joke that the princess of the palace cannot enter the palace gate, so she will naturally let her in.
Mo Xiang lowered his head and said nothing, with a look of contempt on his frosty white face, "Just drive them away."
After listening to Shuangbai's words, Mo Xiang raised his head and glanced at her. He felt that the maid next to the Crown Princess was too ambitious, and she was somewhat inferior when getting along with the Crown Princess. After all, she was also the Crown Princess's concubine. How could she, a slave, say anything about it
Although he felt that Shuangbai was overstepping his bounds, Mo Xiang didn't say anything. After all, the Crown Princess didn't reprimand Shuangbai. If she had, it would be even more overstepping.
Su Ningxin glanced at Mo Xiang and quickly looked away, saying to Shuangbai, "She should indeed be taught a lesson."
Su Ningxin told the guard beside her and asked him to go to the store to buy some things and come back.
Chu Qingzhu in front did not get off the carriage. Seeing Su Ningxin sitting on the horse looking at her from a distance, she did not dare to show her face, but secretly watched their movements.
After what happened last time, Chu Qingzhu was slightly afraid of Su Ning. Now that she had clearly made Su Ning unhappy, she naturally did not dare to go out and talk to her.
At this time, Chu Qingzhu was thinking crazily in her heart, how she should respond if Su Ningxin came to her car to question her, but she thought about many possibilities and couldn't find a good solution.
In the end, Chu Qingzhu felt that she should put down her posture, cry and complain to Su Ningxin, let her know her embarrassment and her concern for her aunt, and let her remember her filial piety and not care about her.
Just as Chu Qingzhu was waiting for Su Ningxin uneasily, she saw Su Ningxin retreating to the street with her people.
"Why is she gone? Isn't she going back home?" Chu Qingzhu asked the maid next to her.
The maid also looked at Su Ningxin and his party through the car window, and asked uncertainly, "Does the Crown Princess want to go around to the side door to enter the mansion?"
"What? She is a noble concubine, and she is shrinking back like this. If she walked through the side door, she would become a joke to the entire Daming Mansion." Chu Qingzhu said in disbelief.
The maid on the side was a little worried and stopped talking for a long time. Finally she closed her eyes and said, "Madam, if the Crown Princess really goes through the side door, the whole Daming Mansion will spread the news that you forced the Crown Princess to not let her go through the main entrance. By then, Princess I’m afraid I won’t even let you go back home.”
"Ah! Isn't she, Su Ningxin, trying to harm me?" Chu Qingzhu clenched the handkerchief tightly, wishing she could break it in half.
After thinking about it, Chu Qingzhu threw the handkerchief on the ground, "No, I have to stop her. I can't let her enter the house like this."
Chu Qingzhu dared to get up, but was stopped by the maid, "Madam, look, the Crown Princess and the others stopped at the street corner and stopped moving."
