Chapter 289 Self-pity

The husband and wife came to the upper room while they were talking. Although the Duke and Mrs. Guo really disliked Ruan Yunsi in their hearts, seeing her docile and respectful, with no showy expression in her eyes, they couldn't help but put away their disgust. Two or three points.

While talking, Su Mingxi realized that the emperor had come over subduedly yesterday, and he couldn't help being shocked, and he was even more grateful for the emperor's generosity and kindness to him.Ruan Yunsi knew in her heart that the fun-loving emperor just wanted to come and have fun.Of course, this is enough to show the generosity of Su Mingxi's holy family, otherwise, if you want the emperor to join in the fun, can you please move?

After the Duke said a few words, the Mrs. Duke stood up and said with a smile: "I'm afraid the old lady is also up. I will take the young couple to pay my respects." After seeing the Duke nodding, she and Su After Mingxi came out, he asked the two of them if they had eaten.Su Mingxi smiled and said: "It's useless, the banquet was rich yesterday, but my son and Yunsi were hungry all afternoon and night, so I'm going to my ancestors this morning to order some good food."

Mrs. Liu couldn't help laughing after she said a word, and looked at Ruan Yunsi again, seeing her bowing her head and smiling, with a faint blush on her face, she was very dignified and stable.Sighing in my heart, I said with a smile, "Don't worry, the ancestors probably expected this, and won't treat you badly."

Sure enough, when they arrived at Mrs. Kang's room, the couple met and got a big red envelope by the way.Then the meal was served, Ruan Yunsi and Aunt Yuan waited and waited to serve dishes, Su Mingxi drank a lot of wine yesterday, and now he feels hungry in his stomach, but when he sees his lover, he has to stand aside and set the rules. I can't eat this meal anymore.So he found an excuse to resign, Mrs. Kang knew why he didn't eat, and didn't keep him. Seeing him go out, she had breakfast here slowly, and then let Ruan Yunsi and Aunt Yuan go down to eat.

After a while, the two returned, Mrs. Kang looked at Ruan Yunsi for a while, then pointed to the seat next to Mrs. Liu to let her sit down, and then said lightly: "The people in this house are small, and your mother-in-law is also weak. I am old. , let alone take care of things, so your husband's aunt is in charge of the affairs of this big family. She is quite capable. Although she can't tell the difference for so many years, it is not easy. But now that you are married Come in and be Mingxi's wife, you should be in charge of these things logically, I'm just afraid that you are not familiar with it, how about it? If you think you can do it yourself, let Takiyun help you, left and right are just trivial matters."

When Ruan Yunsi heard this, she understood in her heart that the old matriarch clearly didn't want to give herself the power of managing the house, but she said so on purpose.She can also understand this, how much trouble has she caused this country's government?It is Su Mingxi's hard work to be able to marry in now. Although this is uncomfortable, it is human nature.

Yin hurriedly stood up and smiled and said: "Since the ancestor said that my younger sister manages well, I should continue to let her manage it. I am not good at this, so I should use my strengths to avoid weaknesses."

Mrs. Kang nodded imperceptibly, looked at Ruan Yunsi, and said indifferently: "Make use of strengths and avoid weaknesses? Well, I don't know how to make use of strengths and avoid weaknesses?"

Ruan Yunsi smiled calmly and said: "Although I am not good at housekeeping, I am good at weaving brocade. In the past, I used to weave brocade with a few sisters and maids every day in the Hou's mansion. Now that I am married, this craft can't be neglected." .”

Mrs. Kang nodded, thought for a while and said: "Yes, I heard that you are good at weaving brocade, and you have two weaving and dyeing factories, which are in the countryside that day, and one is in the capital, right?"

Ruan Yunsi couldn't figure out what the old lady meant for a while, but she didn't want to figure it out. If she only thought about what her mother-in-law and mother-in-law were thinking every day, she would be exhausted and exhausted.Anyway, I am famous, so I am not afraid of anything.Yin said generously: "Yes, but since the concubine is married into the Duke's mansion, the outside affairs are not easy to take care of, so the factory in the countryside has been handed over to my brother and asked him to help me find someone to take care of it."

When Mrs. Kang heard this, she smiled slightly, and said with a "hmm", "That's very good."

Ruan Yunsi was surprised. She knew that women in this era belonged to their husband's family after marriage. If they took care of their natal family, they would be cast aside, unless the natal family was weak.Now her natal family is the Hou's Mansion, and she left behind a weaving and dyeing factory. She thought that the old lady would be unhappy, but she agrees very much, which is really unexpected.

After going back, I told Su Mingxi about this matter, and he laughed and said: "Grandmother and mother are kind-hearted people. Although they have some grudges against you because of what happened back then, you left a weaving and dyeing factory behind." To the Hou Mansion, to help him tide over the difficulties, in the eyes of grandma and mother, this is righteous filial piety, and then let Brother Nan take care of this in your capital, which is obviously to be my good wife, so in their hearts Only happy, but not angry with you."

Only then did Ruan Yunsi understand, because she looked at Su Mingxi with her wonderful eyes, she smiled and said, "Just to put it this way, the silver that our Hou's mansion owed the Lord back then has only just repaid 3 taels, and the profit of the weaving and dyeing factory in the countryside It should be thinner, so how about I let our weaving and dyeing factory in central Beijing do it in the future?
Su Mingxi laughed and said, "What is the 20 taels of silver? I am so grateful to God for being able to hug Yunsi back. Don't say 20 taels of silver, it is 200 million taels of silver. I will give it away for you." It’s also heart-warming. Yes, you are talking about brocade in front of the old lady today. The old man’s childish nature may come over to see what’s new. Xiaobai and you are very close, and we come and go, mother and grandmother Once you understand who you are, the grievances will naturally go away, so you don't have to have any pressure."

Ruan Yunsi smiled and said: "Really? Actually, I'm really a little stressed, but since the master said so, then I feel relieved." As she was talking, she saw Fangcao come in and light a candle, and the sky outside gradually darkened , She thought that tonight was the night of the "bridal chamber" for the two of them, and she couldn't help but feel a little flushed for a while, and she quickly lowered her head.

Su Mingxi was talking happily with her, when he suddenly lost his voice, he couldn't help but feel a little strange, when he saw Ruan Yunsi's face, he suddenly realized, and he couldn't help but secretly amused, thinking again, his lover is always a generous and straightforward person People, seeing her in such a shy state, it was really not easy, so she didn't make a sound, just admiring Ruan Yunsi, who was like a peach blossom in front of her eyes.

****************************
A lamp like a bean.

Aunt Yuan sat quietly in front of the dressing table, her long hair was loose, and there was only a candle beside her. The flickering candlelight cast her shadow on the wall, looking bizarre.

"Auntie still not sleeping? It's almost three o'clock."

The servant girl, Xiaoxi, came in, put on a gown for Aunt Yuan, and said softly: "It's still a bit cold in the night, Auntie, be careful to catch a cold. Now you are taking care of the whole house, how can you miss a day?" ?”

Aunt Yuan sneered and said, "In the past, I was really indispensable, but now, it's not necessarily the case. Even if I'm sick, wouldn't there be a new grandma?"

Xiaoxi wondered: "How could it be? The meaning of the old matriarch in the daylight is clearly that she doesn't want her to take power. The power in this mansion is still with my aunt, so why worry about it."

Aunt Yuan shook her head, gritted her teeth and said angrily: "This woman is used to playing tricks. The old lady and his wife are clearly displeased with her, but today she only spoke a few words to her, and she acted like a virtuous and virtuous woman. The way she looks, immediately makes people's impression of her not so bad. Now this is the first day, as time goes by, are you afraid that she will not please the old lady and the wife? At that time, she will still have the power of housekeeping. Isn't it easy to get? Originally, she is the head of the house, and the housekeeper is justified."

Xiaoxi was surprised: "But didn't she say she wants to weave brocade? What's more, she still has a factory, but those are not enough for her to work on? She is so greedy that she wants to be the housekeeper, can she be busy?"

Aunt Yuan snorted coldly and said: "Do people still think that they have too much power? Isn't it easy to be too busy? As long as I ask Master to find a few capable people for her, what does she need to do? At that time, I will just I'm really about to be stepped on by her. Hmph! Now that I'm low-key, I'm already useless enough, but if I still want to be stepped on by her, I'm really not convinced."

Hearing what the master said, Xiaoxi couldn't help being stunned, and worried for a long time before asking: "Then... what will Auntie do?"

Aunt Yuan sighed and said: "Oh! It's a pity that after so many years, I don't even have anyone to rely on. If I can have children, I will have something to rely on when I grow old. Now I don't have to sit like a lonely ghost. Here, I only think about the bridal chamber over there, the husband and wife love each other, I...my life is so miserable..."

Seeing her weeping, Xiaoxi was also dejected. He was in a daze for a while, and suddenly thought of something and clapped his hands excitedly, saying: "Don't worry, Auntie, I heard that there is a new Baoding Temple in the suburbs of Beijing, which is Tibetan Buddhism. The eminent monk specially came to the Central Plains to preach, claiming to respond to all requests, and even brought a statue of Guanyin, and many people went there to worship the Buddha and pray, and all of them got their wish, why don't you go there sometime?"

Aunt Yuan frowned and said, "For so many years, I don't know how many Buddhas I have worshiped and how much incense I burned, but it's still useless. Could it be that a few monks from the Western Regions have such efficacies?" After finishing speaking, Xiaoxi laughed and said: "Since I have worshiped so much, and this temple is not bad, maybe it will come true? Isn't there an old saying: Can foreign monks know how to chant scriptures? Maybe these monks from the Western Regions really have some knowledge."

Seeing that Aunt Yuan was silent after speaking, she smiled again: "In the end, Auntie is always a young man, and there is always a chance to give birth to a son and a half for her. You haven't seen Miss Liu in the past two days. The former wife said that she would find a good marriage for her in the capital. She was not only unhappy, but also shed a few tears in the wind on the way back. The aunt said, who is this throwing away her daughter for? What about tears?"

Aunt Yuan sneered slightly and said: "Yes, a daughter's heart is only tied to the master. I don't know how many obstacles have been caused to me these years. It seems that I am sure that I can be the first wife, and I am eager to get rid of me." Well, it's no wonder that such an accident has suddenly happened now, so it's no wonder she can't bear it. She's not too young, let's see, in a few days, I'm afraid she will make a marriage arrangement."

Xiaoxi smiled and said: "That's exactly what I said, so Auntie also relaxes, everything in this world is uncertain. Although you seem to be overwhelmed by grandma, the power in your hand has not changed. The new grandma sees She is also gentle, even if she is really a powerful person, there are still wives and old matriarchs in the house, and she must not be allowed to turn upside down, so why worry about grandma here? It’s late at night, why don’t you go to bed earlier.”

Aunt Yuan let her confidant girl comfort her like this, and she felt much better in her heart, so she blew out the candle and went to bed to rest, so she didn't mention it.
