When Xue Zhilan walked in, she was quite complacent.
Can you not be proud? A few months ago, I knew that I was being used by Xu Ranyun, but I still had to agree to it. Now it is the other party's turn to taste it so soon. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, but she is a woman. How can I not be happy when I have revenge soon
Because there was a smile on his face, he and Xu Ranyun greeted each other, and then sat down gracefully, looked at each other carefully, and then pretended to be surprised: "Sister's expression is not very good-looking, could it be that the past few days What's on your mind? If you're sick, you should have found a doctor to recuperate earlier, you're still young, you mustn't let the root cause of your illness fall."
Xu Ranyun didn't have the heart to make false claims with her at the moment, so she sneered and said, "Sister, you don't have to say such things, just tell me what you are here for."
Xue Zhilan smiled and said, "What's wrong with my sister? I can't come to see you if I'm so restless? I think that when you went to see me that day, at least there was a cup of tea for you."
"Sister still lacks this cup of tea?" Xu Ranyun twitched her mouth, but still looked at Cuiping beside her and said, "Grandma Lan has something to say about our hospitality, why don't you hurry up and let the little girl come on?" Tea?"
Cuiping hurriedly smiled and said, "Grandma, don't worry, Xia Yuxuan will never forget the rules. The little girls have already gone to pour tea, but I didn't expect Grandma Lan to be in such a hurry. Maybe she is thirsty after leaving." Looking at Xue Zhilan, she said with a smile: "If grandma doesn't dislike it, why don't you take a couple of sips of the boiled water that's ready in the room to quench your thirst first?"
Xue Zhilan had the chance to win today, so she didn't take a girl's provocation to heart. Yin looked out of the window and said: "The heavy snow fell well a few days ago, but it hasn't snowed again these days. It's a pity that the plum blossoms in the garden are in full bloom. I thought. Red plums always go with white snow. It looks better, what does my sister think?"
Why are you talking about red plums and white snow? Xu Ranyun frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Is there any? Red plums and white snow, I watch it every year when it snows. Yes, I heard that there are many precious flowers planted by Aunt Jing. I have always wanted to see them. But my sister also knows that Aunt Jing and I rarely talk, so it is difficult to speak for a while. My sister and Aunt Jing have always been on good terms, how about Find a time to talk to her, let's go and have a look together?"
Before the words fell, Xue Zhilan's face changed slightly. She came here to add insult to injury, but she did not expect to be stabbed by Xu Ranyun.
Aunt Jing used to be hers. But now? She completely fell to Su Nuannuan's side. She either went to Chunfengyuan or ran to Meiyuelou all day long, and didn't come to sit in her own room for several days, let alone say some intimate words. Last time I heard that Su Nuannuan joked with her that Chunfengyuan is a big place. If you want her to move there, it will be more convenient for daily communication. Later, I don't know why, but I dropped the words. Not long after, news came from Chunfengyuan. It was said that the master had lost his temper, but the little girl couldn't hear clearly, so she heard the master yell, "Chunfengyuan belongs to him, no one is allowed to touch his finger, and Aunt Jing is not allowed to touch Auntie." It's an explanation, but it just makes Xue Zhilan even more confused: Aunt Jing's status, she can't have her own yard, even if she moves to Chunfengyuan, she still lives in a wing room, and she has to listen to Grandma's orders, so how could she become meddler? Grandpa's hat is a bit too big.
I thought that there must be something wrong with this, although Aunt Jing is beautiful, but the master rarely spends the night in her room, it can be seen that he doesn't care too much, since this is said, then Aunt Jing's life will probably be difficult, Unexpectedly, so many days have passed so suddenly, and there is no movement. This really confuses Monk Xue Zhilan Zhang Er. Of course, she will be nervous about things beyond her control, especially now that Aunt Jing is getting closer to Chunfengyuan She hated and was shocked at the same time, hating Aunt Jing for being ungrateful, forgetting when she protected her in the past; what was shocked was why Su Nuannuan only befriended Aunt Jing? Do you want to use the other party against yourself
Therefore, Xu Ranyun's words really hurt her a lot, so she stopped teasing the other party slowly, and went directly with a knife: "Sister wants to see flowers, what's so difficult about it? I'll tell her about it some other day. It's just that I didn't expect that my sister still had such thoughts. I thought you must be in a state of distress at the moment. After all, it's my sister who acts calmly and can sit still at any time. If this matter happens to me, I won't worry about it What is it like? They say that we are masters, looking at the scenery, but you and I know best in our hearts, what is a master like us? If servants don't listen to us, we are nothing, that's all. Well, there are always disobedient people, as long as they don't have unconscionable ideas, the most fearful thing is that they betray the master for glory, and betray us to win the favor of others, which is really sad and frightening."
"I haven't done anything wrong, so what's there to be afraid of?" Xu Ranyun sneered, and when she talked about this, she naturally understood Xue Zhilan's reason for coming, and she was not polite at the moment, she just said lightly: "Sister, what you said is ridiculous , Why did you suddenly come to me and say such strange things? But is there anyone around you who is begging for glory? Tell me, which slave is so bold? I will help my sister vent this anger."
Seeing that Xu Ranyun was still holding on, Xue Zhilan sneered in her heart, picked up the teacup and took a sip, Fang said slowly: "I'm just a metaphor, sister, don't worry. Besides, even if there is, you may not be able to deal with it. Aunt Jing is a person who lives in my yard. She used to talk to me all the time, but now she doesn’t raise her eyelids when she sees me. Grandma, there's nothing I can do."
Xu Ranyun laughed "ha", shook her head and said, "Sister is right, Aunt Jing, I really can't help it. Speaking of it, I'm not worth it for you. She used to listen to you more? When did she listen to you?" Seeing the two of you, aren't you affectionate? It's a pity that people's hearts are like water. Alas! Isn't this the case in deep houses and courtyards? Like people who drink water and know how warm it is, sister, just relax."
Although the schadenfreude in his tone was hardly concealed, Xu Ranyun was full of surprise in his heart, secretly thinking that Xue Zhilan came here today, could it be that she took the initiative to give me a message to make me laugh at her? It can't be that stupid, can it
Sure enough, as soon as she thought of this, Xue Zhilan said with a calm smile: "My sister is absolutely right. In fact, think about it, people go to high places and water flows to low places. Seeing that she is about to become the head aunt who does not exist in the entire capital, how can she put me in her eyes? I am powerless, and if I can't take care of myself, what can I give her?"
"What do you mean by my sister?" Xu Ranyun finally couldn't hold back any longer, his expression changed instantly, and he said in a deep voice: "My aunt? Just because she can take care of such trivial matters, she can Match? Don't worry too much."
Xue Zhilan sneered and said: "It's my sister, don't be too careless. What happened to those trivial matters? Don't forget that she didn't even have such a little power before. Didn't my sister notice it? After returning from Pushan Temple, this There are some people in the manor who are fluctuating, if they want to take power, what better opportunity is there? So my sister has to guard against it."
"That's not her turn as an aunt to be in charge of the house. The rules in the house have been a little loose recently, but they are not so loose. Although the master and wife don't care about things, they don't care if the trouble is outrageous? What's more And Mrs. Min and Second Mistress, can they tolerate an aunt who is equal to them?"
When Xu Ranyun said this, her tone was a bit sharp, rather than convincing Xue Zhilan, it might be better to say that she was comforting herself. However, Xue Zhilan nodded her head in a serious manner, and said with a smile: "It is said that it is impossible for an aunt to be the head of the family. If this word spreads, what will happen to our Anpinghou Mansion? But, sister, hasn't he heard of a real nameless man?" This sentence? If Aunt Jing is only acting as the head of the family and not bearing the name of being the head of the family, who can do anything to her?"
"Without the name of being the head of the family, how can she be the head of the house?" Xu Ranyun sneered, but her heart sank more and more. How could she be the head of the house without the name? It's too easy, when such words are spoken, even she feels that her rhetorical question is so incompetent.
Sure enough, Xue Zhilan laughed and said softly: "If you don't have a name, why can't you be in charge? Grandma is standing behind her. As long as you say that Grandma is in charge and let her help, who can say anything? Sister Can you tell me anything?"
"Such absurd things, the Lord will never allow."
Xu Ranyun shouted in embarrassment, but Xue Zhilan sighed, shook her head and said, "Why don't you allow it? Maybe the master will help out with suggestions. Didn't my sister see it? Grandma finally couldn't hold back Now that I think about it, what she did in Pushan Temple that day, if she said she didn't have a chivalrous heart, she was indeed wronged. But who dares to say that she didn't take a risk? After returning from Meiyuelou, she has always been a school The cloud is light and the wind is light and indifferent to the world, but others don't know what kind of person she is, how can we not know? It has been very difficult to endure the past few months. But before she played hard to get her master, she talked too much Man, if she shows her face of seizing power again at this moment, wouldn't it be a leak? Afterwards, there will be something about Pushan Temple. If she is really doomed, I don't think she will stay, but there There are countless chances of life, and she saw that Fang would perform such a chivalrous story in front of old ladies and wives, and in the end, she was allowed to survive until the Lord rescued her. We thought at the time that it was not worth it for her to take such a risk, but Look at the present, not only the old lady and the master hold her up to the sky, but even the wife is not as far away from her as before, let alone the servants, all of them treat her as a reborn parent. If she doesn't take the opportunity to seize power, when will she wait? In the end, Aunt Jing is just a cover. Who can't let the grandma take off her mask of indifference to fame and fortune? But Aunt Jing is just an aunt after all, and her background is humble. Any foundation, won’t she be flattened and rounded in the future? Otherwise, why do you think she deliberately wooed the other party before, sister, you have been smart all your life, haven’t you seen through all of this?”
