"Forget it, because you helped me get rid of a trouble just now, I will give another one to my wife as a thank you gift."
"What? If I don't help with this matter, are you going to stand up for Xue's daughter-in-law to seek justice?" Duan Tingxuan was really surprised. He just analyzed Su Nuannuan's temperament, thinking that the other party is very indifferent now, and he doesn't care about it. In her early days, even if she felt that Xue's daughter-in-law was being treated unfairly because of her, she would not speak out. Did she guess wrong
"Well! If you are here to provoke me, as long as it doesn't touch my bottom line, then I don't bother to answer. But Xue's daughter-in-law has been doing well in the kitchen. I asked Honglian Xiangyun, this person is still very safe, During those days when I was in Meiyuelou, the kitchen still didn’t forget to deliver meals, and I could still see a bowl of braised pork after death. I think she is kind, even if she cried when I went to the kitchen to move things. Yes, but that's also the majesty of Grandma Yun, isn't it? So I can't bear such a capable person being retaliated against because of me, so I have to make it clear for her."
Su Nuannuan groaned, and suddenly heard Duan Tingxuan laughing and said: "Are you sure that in the kitchen that day, the Xue family's is the female power that intimidated Ran Yun? Not yours? I heard that the grandma led the crowd that day When you go to the kitchen to grab something, you are very majestic."
"Hey! Don't mention the black history." Su Nuannuan was ashamed and angry, and kicked Duan Tingxuan's calf: "Besides, why... lead the crowd? I only brought two Honglian Xiangyun Girl, how can I lead the crowd? You are a son of the world, and your words are so inappropriate, don't you want to be ashamed of yourself."
"Okay, okay, don't say anything." Duan Tingxuan quickly covered his mouth. After a while, Siping and Honglian Xiangyun came back. He was about to see what Su Nuannuan was going to cook this time, but as soon as he entered the kitchen, he heard someone running over outside the door, and Cong Er poked his head He came in and said, "My lord, Shuangxi sent a letter from outside the second gate. It said that Lord Long has something urgent to see you."
"Long Mingchang?"
Duan Tingxuan's expression suddenly became serious. Turning back to Su Nuannuan who looked puzzled, "I'll go see Master Long. If it's late, you can eat first when it's ready. Don't wait for me." After speaking, he left in a hurry.
"Who is Master Long?"
Siping also followed, Su Nuannuan could only ask Honglian, but Honglian frowned and said: "This slave does not know, the Lord never talks about official affairs in front of us. But since it is urgent, That must not be a trivial matter. Sigh! Don't look at Grandma who loves to talk and laugh on weekdays. He has a high-spirited personality, but he is a person who does big things, and he is actually very tired."
"Yeah, that's not the case. Can I make him eat so many good things from me?" Su Nuannuan also sighed, but she couldn't help Duan Tingxuan, at most, that guy was tired and hungry. Just get him something delicious.
The beggar chicken was made, and Su Nuannuan kept three people from her yard to eat. The rest was given to Mrs. Fang and another to Mrs. Yang. She hated Liu Min, but thinking of Duan Tingxuan's hard work as a son, if he didn't send it over, it was hard to guarantee that woman would be in the old Houye again. What kind of pillow wind is blowing in front of me, so think about it, it is better not to be angry, there are countless, it is better to offend a gentleman than to offend a villain, Duan Tingxuan is already busy enough, she eats him, wears him and even spends his money, she doesn't want to give any more He made trouble.
In addition, Aunt Lin also sent one. The three of them, mother and son, have always been invisible people in the Hou's mansion, and they were flattered to suddenly get such a thing. Duan Xinqi was not as cautious in front of his mother and elder brother as he was in other places. Now he happily peeled off the lotus leaves and dried mud, smelled the fresh fragrance of the beggar chicken and said proudly: "I told you that this time, sister-in-law You seem to be a different person, completely different from before, brother, you still don’t believe it, and you still say that she is trying to buy people’s hearts, hmph! Now you know that you have wronged her, don’t you?”
Duan Tingfang has just turned eighteen years old. Although he can't compete with his two elder brothers in appearance, he is also a handsome young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, red lips and white teeth, but there is some unruly air between the brows and the corners of the eyes, and a cold face. There is no smile, so it feels inaccessible.
At this time, after hearing what his sister said, he sneered and said, "A chicken bought you? You are really naive. You have lived in the Hou's mansion for so many years, but you don't know the sinister heart. what to do?"
"Auntie, look, my brother is saying these things in an old-fashioned way again. Who says I don't know the evil people? Do you think I deal with the second sister-in-law and other sister-in-laws? Only the elder sister-in-law, I like to be close to her, and she treats me well. If it's about our ideas, but look, what else can we make people think about? Besides, I was not bought by a chicken, and the bright clothes in my box were all given by my sister-in-law , and the snacks we eat these days... "
"Okay, okay, second girl, please don't say a few words, I really see that grandma treats you well, these days, she is almost turning into a sparrow, chirping."
Aunt Lin interrupted her daughter with a smile, then looked at her son again, with worry hidden between her brows, and said softly: "Third young master, what the second young lady said also has her reason. Although the Hou family is as deep as the sea, they are not all bad people. The second young master is not easy to deal with. You are right not to provoke him, but the son of the world is a famous man in front of the emperor and the arm of the prince. I don't need to say what kind of future this is? Since you have ambitions, you can You should get along well with him. In the future, if he is willing to support you, it will be better than you studying hard for three or four years. There are very few people in this court who are good at being officials. Others have such a brother, and it is too late to get close. Fortunately, you seem to be separated by hundreds of thousands of miles, and you still take a detour when you see it, you... why did you come here?"
"Since my aunt knows that I am a scholar, she should know that a scholar has a strong character. If I want to stand out in the future, I will naturally rely on myself, and relying on my elder brother who is a celebrity in the imperial court. The truly noble body never takes me seriously, so why should I put my hot face on his cold ass?"
"How do you know it's a cold ass?" Duan Xinqi wrinkled his little nose and retorted: "I saw the eldest brother twice, and I think he is also very kind, not as indifferent as you said. There is a reason why he doesn't like the second brother Yes, how do you know that he won't get close to you? It's clear that you don't want to get close to him, big brother has so many things to do, and you still expect him to accommodate you?"
If someone else said this, Mr. Duan would have turned his back on him long ago, but it was the girl he loves who said it. Apart from staring blankly for a while, he lost his temper, so he turned to Aunt Lin and said, "Look, Auntie? My sister is all killed now." Bought it."
Aunt Lin smiled and said: "Although your sister is young, what she said is not unreasonable. Even if it is a bribe, I am grateful that Grandma is willing to look at us more now." Seeing that Duan Ting's face changed, she sighed After taking a breath, he said softly: "I know that the third young master has a high temper, but whoever told you to be born by me, it doesn't matter if you are a bit rebellious, but the third young master, the most important thing in dealing with people is friendship, you must not treat others like that." Kindly treat it as the liver and lungs of a donkey."
Duan Tingfang has low self-esteem and is sensitive, but he is really close to his mother and sister, and bows his head in silence. Here, Aunt Lin took out a pair of embroidered shoes and saw two beautifully embroidered hibiscus flowers on the toe of the shoes. She smiled and said, "I went to my wife a few days ago, and it happened that the people in the sewing room were cutting clothes, so my wife rewarded me." Two pieces of cloth, I made a pair of shoes for grandma, it’s not worth anything, grandma doesn’t lack this pair of shoes, but it’s just my heart for her. I heard that the son of the world has been in Chunfengyuan recently, you will come tomorrow Together with the second girl, take this pair of shoes over to thank others, it would be even better if you can have a few words with the elder son, after all, my brother, you are upright, the elder son will not look down on you."
Duan Tingfang really didn't want to go, his brows were furrowed tightly, but he also knew that his mother had good intentions, besides, Duan Xinqi was already patting his chest and said: "Don't worry, Auntie, brother will not go tomorrow, I will hold his clothes Drag him there like an old cow."
Duan Tingfang glared at his younger sister: "Well, I've only been to Chunfengyuan for a few days, this girl's words are several times more than before, she even dared to reprimand her, who gave her such audacity?" Could it be that the elder sister-in-law who used to be extravagant and jealous really has such a great charm now? Even Qi'er was unknowingly influenced by her and became lively
Over there, the mother and son talked about the powder and rouge sent by Chunfengyuan the day before yesterday. They heard that several compradors had also been beaten, so they didn't dare to be so unscrupulous in the future. Both mother and daughter spoke highly of Su Nuannuan, which aroused Duan Tingfang's curiosity even more. After thinking about it, he decided that as long as his sister persisted, he might as well go down the slope and go to Chunfengyuan to have a look. Not to have any relationship with the elder brother, just to see what the reborn sister-in-law has become
The masters who got the beggar chicken in the mansion here were all smiling, but the young master didn't even taste a bite. He never came back after he left Chunfengyuan. Even Su Nuannuan, who is heartless and heartless, lay on the bed after eating, was a little worried, for fear that he would have some serious trouble, even though the other party was a scumbag , but the fate of himself and his parents are tied to him, can you not worry
Grandma made a very powerful excuse for herself, because she couldn't fall asleep because of tossing and turning, she simply got up and ate a bowl of rice balls with wine, and didn't fall asleep until it was nearly four o'clock.
Although she moved back to the backyard, but because Mrs. Yang disliked it, she simply didn't need Su Nuannuan to pay her respects. Mrs. Fang has long been corrupted by delicious food. As long as Chunfengyuan often sends snacks to eat, the old lady doesn't care about the person who makes snacks Not very polite. This has led to the happy sheep-herding state of the owner of Chunfengyuan. So the next day I saw my grandma was still asleep after a long day, and the girls didn't wake her up. Sometimes the master's waking up was very scary.
