Mo Yuhou was brought back to his senses by the old lady's angry shout, he pursed his lips and knelt down and said, "My son pays his respects to mother."
"You still see me as a mother?" The old lady was very angry, pointing at the Wen Wan next to her, "You married her, but did you ever ask me a single word?"
Ning Yuxuan said in a low voice: "Mother, calm down, my son and Wen Wan's marriage has always been planned to wait for you to come back and report."
As he said that, he even took a look at Ji Man.
Ji Man quickly put away his smile, and looked innocently at the patterns on the carpet.
Mo Yuhou was gifted and intelligent since she was a child. Apart from marriage, other things never worried her mother. Now that the affairs of the court are changing rapidly, the emperor intends to overpower the Nie family, so he took Sang Yu for surgery, she can understand. However, it is impossible to calculate that he would welcome such an unidentified woman back.
"You're sure I won't agree, so cut it first and play later." The old lady snorted heavily.
Ning Yuxuan raised his head, his eyes were full of sincerity: "My son really loves gentleness, so he wants to leave this best position to her."
like.
The old lady was stunned for a while, and the gentle tears that knelt down followed.
Ji Man heard it funny, but Nie Sangyu's heart twitched, so tight that it made her frown.
In the family of princes and generals, the last thing to say is love, and the most rare thing is true love. The old lady loved Pingnanhou for most of her life, and she never said a single word. Now I actually heard a word of love from my son's mouth.
After being relieved, the old lady actually laughed, her shoulders trembled: "Xuan'er, do you know what love is?"
Ning Yuxuan knelt straight, without flinching at all: "My son wants to grow old with her forever."
Wen Wan was so moved that Mo Yuhou gently held the hand under his sleeve, and suddenly he had the courage to kowtow to the old lady above: "Everything is wrong, it's Wen Wan alone. Wrong. If the old lady wants to blame, Wen Wan doesn't ask for anything else, as long as she can stay with Lord Hou, whether it's in the main room or the side room, Wen Wan doesn't care."
What a loving couple, Ji Man watched coldly, thinking that the male and female protagonists are just different, feelings overcome everything, the male protagonist says love, and everything else is just floating clouds.
But is it possible? This is a house fight novel, not a Grimm's fairy tale.
The old lady was silent for a long time, then she suddenly smiled: "Look at this one who is crying like pear blossoms and raining, and the other is so serious that his face is tense. If you don't know, you still say that I, a wicked old woman, want to beat the mandarin ducks with a stick and tear you apart alive." People who really love each other."
The tone changed so quickly that both Ning Yuxuan and Wen Wan were stunned and looked up at her.
"I'm just trying to test it out. It seems that Wan'er is sincere to Xuan'er." The old lady's whole face softened, and she motioned for Dang Gui and Wu Jiang to help them up, and she also asked Ji Man to stand aside. .
"Actually, as long as you can hold the position of Mrs. Hou, your family background is not particularly important. I am also tired today, so you can go down first."
Wen Wan was overjoyed, thinking that the old lady really accepted her, she quickly kowtowed to thank her, and held Ning Yuxuan's hand tightly.
Mo Yuhou didn't loosen his brows, he only bowed to the old lady, and went out with Wen Wan.
As a son, he certainly knows what kind of temperament his mother is. Just seeing Wen Wan so happy, he couldn't tell the truth to make her more worried.
Ji Man shrugged, and also saluted the old lady, intending to leave, but Wu, the servant girl next to her, held her down, smiled lightly and shook her head, signaling her to stop.
Then the door closed, Ji Man gritted his teeth, and knelt down towards the old lady again with a bang. She still had the courage to speak on her knees.
"Steward Qian said that you have changed a lot, but I still don't believe it." The smile on the old lady's face disappeared, replaced by a deep sigh: "It's hard for you too, the lively and straightforward temperament in the past was defeated by Xuan'er. Mo De, listen to him say that he loves others, so he won't cry or make a fuss."
It was too late to say it, but soon, Ji Man bit her lip and cried, choked up and said: "Old lady, I am not reconciled, I am not reconciled..."
This is definitely Nie Sangyu's cameo appearance, but for just a moment, Ji Man even faintly noticed her weakness.
It seems that the old lady really loves Nie Sangyu, otherwise she wouldn't try to shout such a sentence to drain her yang energy.
Tears kept flowing on his face, and Ji Man was really sad.
The old lady felt sorry for her, so she got up quickly and pulled her to sit on the side of the soft couch: "Silly girl, I don't know that you are not reconciled. After so many years, I, an old woman, can see how you treat Xuan'er." .You love him too much, maybe he will understand one day."
Ji Man shook his head, and when he understood, the second girl had already been killed.
"I don't think that Wen Wan is someone who can stand on the stage. In a short time, Xuan'er can still tell me her true love. After a long time, she can't stand the pressure of Mrs. Hou, and the position will always be yours." The old lady The blackness in the eyes darkened: "It's just you, don't be so impulsive and cause trouble again. I heard that you were reprimanded by the emperor for breaking into the palace?"
Ji Man nodded in shame.
"Do you know that the emperor has not touched the Nie family because of the concubine's relationship. The Nie family is full-fledged, and there are a lot of unclean people below. The queen's party has long been unable to stand it. Why do you still go up to the emperor? Opportunity to punish the noble concubine?" The old lady was a little angry: "Sometimes you are too ignorant of the rules, I can't blame Xuan'er for remembering what you did for so many years."
Ji Man can only be scolded honestly, she did not do these things, but it can be seen that the old lady and Concubine Nie are really good girlfriends, and they always think about the Nie family.
"Now that I'm back, naturally no one in this yard can harm you." The old lady straightened her expression and said, "It's just that there are many things that you need to learn by yourself. Sometimes, don't blame me for not helping you."
The atmosphere was so serious, Ji Man nodded solemnly, then looked at the old lady's face, and then said as if offering a treasure: "The old lady must be tired after a long drive. Sang Yu waited on your face, how about you sleep ?”
The old lady glanced at her: "Now she's acting like a good boy again, that's all, this dusty face, Wu goes to fetch water, Danggui goes to get some pearl powder, let Sangyu serve me for an afternoon nap."
The two maids agreed and were about to leave when Sang Yu hurriedly said, "Please trouble Aunt Danggui to bring me another hard-boiled egg."
The old lady only thought she was hungry and wanted something to eat, so she didn't ask much. The old lady next to her came to take care of her and untied her bun, allowing her to lie comfortably on the imperial concubine couch.
Ji Man cleaned her face with clean water, then peeled off the eggs that Aunt Danggui brought and let it cool down a bit, then took out the cream and rubbed it on the old lady's face bit by bit.
"What is this?" Wu looked curiously at the box in Jiman's hand.
"It's cream." Ji Man dug a lump into his hand, then handed the rest to Dang Gui: "You two aunts can try it too."
"The one sold on Yongning Street?" Wu whispered: "The carriage passed by Yongning Street today, and I heard a lot of people talking about creams. The threshold of a rouge shop is about to be squeezed."
Ji Man smiled and nodded. On the first day when the cream was launched, she told Shui Niangzi that a large group of people must be hired to line up at the door and discuss it, so as to achieve a good publicity effect. It seems that the water lady is doing well.
Wu and Danggui watched as Ji Man applied the cream to the old lady's face. The old lady seemed tired and slept soundly. But the pale pink stuff disappeared as soon as it was applied on the face, but the old lady's face looked moist and nice.
Wu was very surprised, and hurriedly took Danggui out to try it secretly. Although the two servant girls are popular people in front of the old lady, they are still seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls, very beautiful.
Ji Man wiped the old lady's face patiently, then cleaned her hands, and gently rolled and pressed the egg on the old lady's face. Those who have tried it should know that it feels very comfortable and moisturizing.
While waiting for lunch, the old lady finally woke up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw the surprised and delighted eyes of Danggui and Wu.
"What's the matter?" The old lady said with a straight face.
Ji Man stood aside with a smile, holding the bronze mirror in front of the old lady: "You slept very well this time."
The skin on the face of the person in the mirror is much smoother and fairer. Although there are crow's feet around the corners of the eyes and bags under the eyes are a bit heavy, the skin looks at least five years younger.
"This..." The old lady was taken aback, and quickly reached out to touch her face, it was tender and not greasy, very clean and refreshing.
"Master Sang used cream for you, and kneaded eggs for you for half an hour." Wu Xiao said: "The old lady is so lucky, Master Sang is filial."
The old lady looked at Ji Man in surprise, and Ji Man smiled softly: "I bought it from outside a few days ago. It is said that it is very rare, so I left a box for the old lady."
Although she is widowed, as long as she is a woman, she loves beauty. The old lady said "Why do you want to be so beautiful", but she was really happy in her eyes.
Ji Man knew that the bribe was right, even if the old lady was dissatisfied with Nie Sangyu, she should be happy now. After looking in the mirror for a long time, he said: "You have a heart."
At lunch time, Ning Yuxuan and Wen Wan came to the main courtyard again, and the old lady made an exception and asked Ji Man to sit down too, without serving the dishes.
"Why is mother in such a good mood?" Ning Yuxuan looked at her with raised eyebrows, and was a little surprised: "Your complexion has also improved a lot."
After being praised by her own son, the old lady was even happier: "Sangyu girl is filial, she rubbed my face with cream and eggs, and her old face made her bloom."
Wen Wan was taken aback for a moment, and followed suit: "The old lady is not old, being called an old name is just a precious status, and you are still young."
The cream, Jiman bought it last time, and said that she gave it to her. I didn't expect to keep a hand. Wen Wan took another look at Ji Man who was sitting quietly next to her, and finally felt a little wary in her heart.
