Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 506 Embarrassing Outsiders

Everyone in the room froze for a moment.

The eldest lady is crying like this, but I didn't expect Master Xiang to rush over without giving me a look?

It’s fine if you don’t care about it, but once you come here, you only care about the Crown Princess, such an obvious distinction... Logically speaking, it’s not considered a distinction. It’s perfectly normal for a father to care about his daughter, but——the Crown Princess was raised by him. Daughter outside, the eldest lady is crying because of her, Mr. Xiang, doesn't this mean adding fuel to the fire?

With Da Furen's temperament, if there is another disturbance, I don't know how ugly the scene will be!
Mother Zhou dipped a cotton towel in hot water with salt, and was covering Xu Yunjiao's eyes. When she heard Zhao Ziyi's words, her movements froze, she looked over hesitantly, her eyes turned, and she looked at the old lady again.

"Master Xiang!"

Before she could think about what to say, someone slapped her arm suddenly, and Xu Yunjiao cried out in a crying voice.

"You promised me that as long as I let her in everything, you would treat me wholeheartedly—" She stared at Zhao Ziyi with red eyes, "You also promised me that as long as I gave birth to this child, you would have sex with me." For loving couples!"

"Is that what you mean by a loving couple? Could it be that I, a mother-in-law, still want to be a child in front of her?" Her questioning was louder and louder, like a sharp needle point, poking his face one after another: "Zhao Ziyi, speak up!"

Zhao Ziyi frowned, and called softly, "Xu Yunjiao."

The old lady coughed heavily.

It's okay to be jealous with Sister Wei, but how could you have the nerve to say what your husband said to you in private?

This room is full of maids and women!
There are people in their thirties, and their words and deeds don't have the slightest look that a mistress should have!
The old lady held back all her anger and only winked at her son.

Zhao Ziyi was taken aback, but didn't realize what her mother meant for a while.

During his pause, Xu Yunjiao's emotions surged up again, and her voice trembled with anger: "Zhao Ziyi, have you forgotten what you promised me? I knew that you were trying to make me happy! I... ..."

Seeing that her words were getting worse and worse, the old lady hurriedly interrupted her crying: "Xuan'er has been busy all morning, so she must be hungry too?" She raised her hand again and ordered the servants, "Put the food on the table quickly! "

"Old Madam—" Xu Yun glared angrily.

But Jiang is old and hot. The old lady has been in charge of the inner house for many years, how could she give her a chance to have another attack?

He raised his chin slightly, gave a majestic look, and ordered in a cold voice: "And you, you should be tired after crying for half a day! Don't think about yourself, but also think about the child in your stomach!"

Zhao Ziyi immediately lost his expression, nodded and smiled, "Mother's reminder, my son is really hungry!"

"Master Xiang!" Xu Yunjiao yelled again, "Aren't you going to say something fair for this concubine?"

"I know." Zhao Ziyi waved his hand lightly, and said, "What do you have to say, let's talk about it when you go back." Before she could respond, she smiled and looked at the old lady, "Just now when my son came in, he smelled the smell of mutton , Did you make mutton soup?"

"It's not mutton soup." The old lady laughed, and pointed to a servant woman holding a copper stove: "A few days ago, Tang Heng sent someone to send a set of copper pots, and some sauce made by his wife herself The material, is it... using some kind of secret system?"

The maid put the copper stove on the food table and replied with a smile, "It's Shajiang."

"Yes, it's called sand ginger." The old lady said "ouch", "cut it into pieces and make it into dipping sauce, and eat it with beef and mutton. It's said that southerners eat hot pot like this."

Zhao Ziyi smiled slightly: "This Tang Heng is quite particular about food."

The old lady nodded: "He chose this mutton himself. It is fresh, tender and has no smell. He is really an expert."

While talking, copper pots, dishes, and plates of fresh beef and mutton were brought up one by one.

Seeing that the atmosphere was lively, the third lady joined the topic with a smile: "Old lady, don't be deceived by him, not all southerners eat hot pot like this, at least we in Jiangnan don't!"

The old lady smiled and asked: "Then how do you eat in Jiangnan?"

"When we eat hot pot, we pay attention to the base ingredients. We boil a pot of bone soup, put duck blood, vermicelli, crispy bamboo shoots, and radishes as the base..."

The third lady said, she has a voice like a lark, and she speaks softly and softly, which is very comfortable to listen to. The old lady can't stop nodding: "One side of the water and soil nourishes the other side, and the people in Jiangnan have a soft temperament and a light taste. some."

Xu Yunjiao subconsciously opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word.

The husband is a rich man, the mother-in-law is a hot-tempered one, and the sister-in-law is a sweet-mouthed one. If they sing together like this, she won't be able to speak even with ten mouths!
Seeing this happy and harmonious appearance, she, the mistress of the house, has become an awkward outsider instead.

Seeing Xu Yunjiao's expression, the third lady hurriedly stood up and said with a smile, "What did the old lady say? Most of the side dishes are because we have a good climate in the south of the Yangtze River, and all the vegetables grow fresh and tender. It's strange to say that after I married in the capital , but the taste has changed, and the crispy bamboo shoots that I liked before feel so-so, old lady, is it because our family’s oil and water are too good, making my mouth tricky?”

The old lady was so coaxed that she narrowed her eyes with a smile: "That's not a good bamboo shoot!"

He also explained to the servants who carried the food boxes, "We just sent a lot of fresh melons and fruits from the village, and there happened to be spring bamboo shoots dug from the mud. You go and cut a plate of the tenderest ones, so that she can eat them well!"

The maid answered with a smile.

The third lady bent her knees and gave a slight blessing: "The daughter-in-law there will thank mother first!"

"Family, thank you for what you say!" The old lady was very satisfied with her obedience and obedience, and then said: "There is also the bacon that was smoked in the winter last year. You can bring a few catties to it later. These are all bought in the market. Good stuff you can't get."

The third lady is also a delicate heart: "Thanks to the old lady's blessing, I can eat so many good things. When I was a daughter, I couldn't even eat it in my hometown in Jiangnan!"

The old lady laughed loudly: "It's just some cheap things, and it's not a delicacy."

Zhou's mother also smiled and interjected: "Although things are light and sentimental, if you love your daughter-in-law, your daughter-in-law will naturally be grateful to you."

The more they talked, the happier they were. They just left Xu Yunjiao, whose eyes were red from crying, talking and laughing as usual, as if the farce just now had never happened.

While Zhao Xiwei secretly admired her, she also felt a little sad for Xu Yunjiao.

No matter how arrogant and willful you are, if you meet someone like the old lady, you will only cry.

I also thought that when the emperor was sick a few days ago, several concubines in the palace were crying and making noise, but she didn't let them go, but persuaded them with nice words. Afterwards, the emperor found out, not only didn't care, but ordered others A reward was sent to appease him.
