"The prince fainted last night. I didn't come back from the East Palace all night. I didn't come back until now. I thought you must have waited for midnight yesterday, so I came here to comfort you. How did I expect to see such a scene? So you Are you just pretending to be seen by others? You can blame me, why do you want to blame the innocent? Don’t you think about how much pain you will leave in Maoming’s heart if you really drive Mi Shi away today? Mi Shi No matter how much you love Maoming, can you still surpass your mother? If you can't hold back and beat someone for such a small matter, how can you still have the demeanor of a grandma?"
"What? You said you went...to the East Palace?"
Xu Ranyun's face turned pale, then turned purple again, and said bitterly: "Then why did I ask Fengxian to inquire this morning, Xiangyun in Chunfengyuan said you were happy last night, where did you stay?"
Duan Tingxuan was stunned, and heard Fengxian beside him say: "Yes, sir, I asked Xiangyun specifically this morning, she said you were happy after eating ice cream last night, so you stayed in Chunfengyuan, and you have a nose and eyes in what you said."
"You just listened to what the girl said? Since you care about me so much, why don't you ask Nuannuan?" Duan Tingxuan looked helplessly at Xu Ranyun and Fengxian: They were very smart in the past, but why are they so stupid now? ? It's okay to be stupid once, but to show this stupidity in front of him again, he shouldn't say anything at all.
The faces of Xu Ranyun and Fengxian also turned red, perhaps because of the failed relationship for several days, the two of them couldn't calm down this day, Fengxian believed Xiangyun credulously, and now they even made a joke in front of Duan Tingxuan, I just feel ashamed. Over there, Xu Ranyun also wished she could go to Chunfengyuan and strangle Su Nuannuan to death immediately. In her heart, Xiangyun's ability to tease Fengxian like this was naturally inspired by Su Nuannuan.
"Okay. You are angry today, so clean up and clean up. I'll go to Chunfengyuan." Duan Tingxuan sighed, knowing that he should stay with Xu Ranyun at this time, but he wants to discuss the prince's matter with Su Nuannuan , and thinking of Xu Ranyun's vicious kick on Mi's body just now, I feel like I ate a fly in my heart. So I didn't take a sip of tea. Turn around and leave.
"Grandpa."
Xu Ranyun was in a hurry, stepped forward and grabbed Duan Tingxuan's sleeve, and said aggrievedly: "It's my fault today. It's just four days later, it will be the old lady's birthday, I have made some arrangements, when will my master Come over and take a look? If there is anything inappropriate, please point me out.”
After hearing this, Duan Tingxuan couldn't help standing still. After pondering for a long time, looking back at Xu Ranyun's begging Xiyi, he sighed, and his heart softened a little. He shook Xu Ranyun's hand and said softly: "Okay, I'll help you take a look at that time. In fact, nothing else, let me tell you. You'd better transfer Xue's daughter-in-law back to the kitchen as soon as possible."
"Why?"
Xu Ranyun was frightened and angry, and instantly forgot her policy of being gentle. With a scream, he shook off Duan Tingxuan's hand, blushed and said angrily, "I've been worried for a few days, but the old lady and the master didn't move. I thought you finally remembered my face, but it turned out that I was just being sentimental." , as long as you can please grandma, why would you care about me? Whether I will be ashamed or not? Will I be laughed at by those servants?"
Duan Tingxuan's complexion gradually turned cold, and it took a long time before he said in a deep voice: "If I really don't care about your face, Xue's daughter-in-law will return to the kitchen the next day. You don't know why she was transferred to the laundry room that day? In order to revenge Nuan Nuan, you transferred her away by being picky, which is extremely unreasonable. Did I tell you anything? It was not because of your hard work as a housekeeper, to save you some face? How is the kitchen now? The old lady endured it Not to mention, do you really think that I will not eat the food in the kitchen when I am in Chunfengyuan every day? If this continues, even the old lady will not be able to bear it without me and Nuannuan. At that time, the old lady opened her mouth, Why are you talking about shamelessness?"
Xu Ranyun was exposed by her husband's dark thoughts about transferring Xue's daughter-in-law away. She was flustered and angry at the same time. She gritted her teeth and said, "That's it, that's all. I don't have the face to take care of this family anymore. Anyway, there are so many people in the house. I'm not afraid that there will be no housekeeper, but Second Mistress has always disliked that her power of housekeeper is incomplete, and she has always wanted to take half of it away from me."
Duan Tingxuan said coldly: "Don't think that you can threaten me with the second room, yes, it is impossible for me to give all the power of housekeeping to the second room, but it doesn't mean that there will be no housekeeper in the first room without you. Having more wives and concubines has this advantage, even if Nuan Nuan doesn't want to be in charge of the house, there are always Zhi Lan and Jing Er, which one is more important? Think for yourself."
After speaking, Xu Ranyun was trembling, and she sat down on the chair after a while, gasping for breath, Fengxian looked at the panic on her face, knowing that the master finally realized the seriousness of this matter , hurriedly persuaded: "Grandma always said to hold your breath, how come you can't hold your breath when you see Grandpa? You shouldn't, you shouldn't have just yelled at Grandpa..."
"Can I not know about this? But just now... just let him tell the truth, I was just angry, so I couldn't hold back." Xu Ranyun interrupted Fengxian impatiently, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, with a gloomy face Sitting there without saying a word, Fengxian didn't dare to say anything, after a while, she suddenly stood up and said bitterly: "No, I can't let things go on like this, I can't lose Stewardship, absolutely not."
"Grandma, what can I do?" Fengxian's eyes lit up, thinking that the master had come up with an idea, but Xu Ranyun gritted his teeth and said, "Listen to what your grandfather said, now you only want me to be the housekeeper, so you don't interfere with Xue's daughter-in-law. Once he intervenes, I'm afraid I will lose this power. I asked why the woman had stopped for so many days and got closer to Aunt Jing. It turned out that the housekeeper she chose was not Xue Zhilan, but Aunt Jing. Hehe! She is so smart, knowing that Xue Zhilan wants to please his wife, if she has the power to head the house, it will be even more difficult to control. Aunt Jing is different, she has no natal family, so she has no foundation in the mansion. Her family background is lowly, so it is impossible to climb on top of her and use her to suppress Xue Zhilan and me. This trick is really clever, no, I can't do what she wants. Fengxian, you will let Xue's daughter-in-law come back tomorrow. The kitchen, according to me, those things have been investigated before, and it has nothing to do with her, so I still let her go back to the kitchen to take care of things."
"Grandma thinks too much? If grandma really wants to suppress you and Grandma Lan, it's fine for her to take over the power of the house herself, so what's the point of wooing Aunt Jing?" Fengxian felt that the master was out of order. She was the one who drove Xue's daughter-in-law out, and now she brought her back, wouldn't that be a slap in the face? The reason for the chaos was because she felt that the threat of the eldest grandma was getting bigger and bigger, so she quickly persuaded her.
"What do you know? Why did she become an abandoned woman in the past? Wasn't it because of her arrogance and aloofness? Who in this house doesn't hate her? So she has learned her lesson this time. Look, she has only been back to Chunfengyuan for a few days? How many helpers? The second girl of Aunt Lin is now Aunt Jing again. Fengxian. She has become too smart now. She just said in front of the master that she doesn't want to be a housekeeper. If she breaks her promise again today, what will the master think? She still wants Playing hard to get? So in order to keep words and deeds consistent. She must not take care of this family. Even if she wants to take care of it, she will take care of it after this period of time. Although I transferred Xue's daughter-in-law back today, it seems to be a slap in the face. But it is better than Being slapped on my face twice by her is strong enough to let the old lady and the master see my reformation. As long as I don't lose my power of housekeeper, she won't be able to trample me to death. Next If people are disobedient, I can control them, beat them, and earn my face back. But without the power of stewardship, I will be completely finished."
"It's still grandma who is thoughtful. Since grandma understands it, she should calm down and think about it. Gou Jian tried his best, Han Xin endured the humiliation. In the end, he was able to stand up and become a king. Grandma must not be discouraged because of this setback. "
Xu Ranyun glanced at Fengxian, and sighed: "Now my caring person is only you. You don't need to persuade me, if I am really discouraged, I won't have these arrangements. It's because I'm getting carried away these days , will let that woman turn over, and now put myself in such a situation. I will learn from the lesson in the future. Once I have the opportunity to pull them off the horse, I will definitely step them into the abyss, so that they will never turn over. Take a breath out of my heart."
After Fengxian heard this, Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Since that's the case, the servant girl will go to the Xue family's daughter-in-law and go back to the kitchen. It's just that the Qin family... what should I do? After all, for the position of the kitchen, she But there is no less filial piety to grandma."
Xu Ranyun said disgustedly: "If she is willing to spend half of her mind on flattering me and go to the kitchen, how can today's incident happen? In the end, it was because she did not do well that I was reprimanded by the master and had to slap myself I can put down my face, but she wants me to explain to her? Well, for the sake of her loyalty to me, let her go to the sewing room and take care of the cloth purchase."
"Yes, this servant understands." Feng Xian lightly blessed her body and exited.
Let's talk about Duan Tingxuan, who left Xia Yuxuan and came to Chunfengyuan. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Xiangyun watering flowers at the corner of the east wall, so he called out, "Xiangyun, come here."
"Hey!" Xiangyun agreed, and moved over nervously. She teased Fengxian this morning. When she came back and told Honglian, she was reprimanded by Honglian, saying that she was causing trouble for nothing. , she must be punished. So at this moment when Duan Tingxuan called her, Xiangyun was afraid that something would happen to her, wishing she could take one step and take three steps back, but she didn't dare.
"Why are you talking nonsense to Fengxian today?"
Sure enough, when the Dongchuang incident happened, Xiangyun felt her heartbeat stop suddenly, and lowered her head and whispered: "In the past... In the past, Fengxian always showed off in front of the servants that the master stayed in Xia Yuxuan, so...so she came to ask the servants today, I just can't help it... Lord... slaves don't dare anymore, please forgive me this time."
