A Thousand Hills

Chapter 70

Xie Mo was angrily dragged away by Miss Wang.

Miss Wang is Xie Moyou's cousin, and she is obviously familiar with the Osmanthus Garden. She dragged Xie Moyou to a secluded place with a rockery and a waterfall. The water does not know where it comes from, it falls from a high place, splashes on the rocks, and then winds down from high to low, leading to a bend of quiet and curved water.

The autumn heat has not gone yet, and he was angry again, Xie Moyou waved his round fan angrily, as if he wanted to blow away the anger.Miss Wang smiled, "This is the first time you have come to the Osmanthus Banquet, so I don't know who she is."

"Whoever she is, she can't be like a mad dog." Even the royal princess was taken away by Xie Moru to Jingxin Nunnery.She couldn't compare to Xie Moru, but she couldn't be bullied for nothing.

"Axueding has misunderstood you and Miss Xie." Miss Wang persuaded, "You came here to make trouble, and she didn't actually target you."

"I don't even know her. My eldest sister goes out less often than I do, and I don't even know her. Who knows who she is, but she always looks weird when she comes up. It's possible that my eldest sister has offended her in the past."

"Sister Ling didn't offend her." Miss Wang reminded Xie Moyou, thinking of the blood relationship between her cousins, "Axue is the eldest daughter of Prince Yongyi, and she is two years older than you. Princess Ningrong is her grandmother, and she has a good relationship with Princess Yongfu, you can figure it out after doing the math."

This garden is called Osmanthus Garden, and there is also an osmanthus flower planted by the water. The rich fragrance of the flowers is overwhelming. Xie Moyou reached out and picked a branch, and gradually calmed down. He said quietly, "My cousin kindly persuaded me, I understand. Miss Xue don't care What is the noble daughter of the Gongmenhou Mansion, no matter what she thinks, she offended me today, I don't care about her, she must still be upset, it is a pity that I did not meet my eldest sister. When she meets , she will know how good-natured I am."

Miss Wang still firmly believes in this.It is said that the fact that Princess Yongfu entered the Jingxin Nunnery to pray for blessings was related to Xie Moru. Even if Miss Xue had a mother from Cheng En Gong's mansion, she might not be able to compare with Princess Yongfu's birth from the royal family's first princess.Miss Wang smiled softly, and took Xie Moyou's hand, "It's good that you understand, why bother to be so angry. This is your first time to attend the sweet-scented osmanthus banquet, come, I have a few ladies who I know well, no matter how good they are However, I will introduce her to my cousin."

Xie Mo smiled sadly, "My cousin always takes care of me."

"This is what I said, since I am your cousin, I should take care of you."

Xie Moyou regained his previous demeanor, and the two passed together.

Hu Sanniang obviously also knew that Miss Xue had admitted the wrong person to Xie Moyou, so she brought a plate of lychees in person, smiled and said to Miss Xie Moyou Wang, "I was looking for you just now, this is the late lychee, you have a taste, It looks delicious."

Both of them picked one to eat, it was really sweet and moist, and they all praised it.Seeing that Xie Moyou looked fine, Hu Sanniang was a little relieved.Hu Wu'er smiled at Xie Moyou, then turned around and continued talking and laughing with Miss Xue.

Xie Moyou clenched her back molars tightly, her soft and beautiful face became a little colder, she turned her head away and left.

Although Miss Wang kindly wanted to introduce the wealthy lady to her, Xie Moyou also lost interest.After Princess Yi'an left in the afternoon, Xie Moyou went back with her.Princess Ningrong ordered someone to prepare a box of pearls for Xie Moyou, although she didn't say it directly, it meant to apologize.

Princess Yi'an didn't know about this, so she took Xie Moyou into the sedan chair and asked, "That's fine, why did Aunt Ning Rong give you a box of pearls."

Even if Princess Ningrong didn't say anything, Xie Moyou wouldn't feel anything if she didn't know. After all, bickering among ladies is also common.In the end, the Hu family didn't ask a word, just gave her something, just like I taught a servant a lesson, but the lesson was wrong, and I rewarded him with something to expose the matter.Xie Moyou had been taught by Mrs. Xie for many years, how could he not understand this method.Now being used by Eldest Princess Ning Rong, Xie Moyou's face turned red, and tears flowed down his face.

Princess Yi'an has a good temper and coaxed her a few words.Since Ning's family was put in confinement, Miss Xie Moyou's temper gradually calmed down, and she told about Miss Xue with tears in her eyes.Princess Yi'an frowned, "This Yu Niang is also confused, how can she be so rude." She then persuaded Xie Moyou, "Princess Ningrong already knew what was wrong with Yuniang, so I will give you pearls as a substitute for Yu Niang. Mother apologizes to you, so don't cry, or go back and let your grandmother see it, so you won't worry the elders." For this kind of thing, Princess Ning Rong has already rewarded things, and it's not a big deal, so it has to be.

Xie Moyou nodded with tears in his eyes.Although she is dull, but listening to Princess Yi'an's words, she knows that Princess Yi'an will not stand up for her.

"Okay, let's stop the tears." Princess Yi'an wiped away her tears, and Xie Moyou had no choice but to stop crying.

Princess Yi'an went back directly to the Princess Mansion, and then ordered her aunt in charge to prepare a sedan chair to take Xie Moyou back to the Shangshu Mansion. Xie Moyou cried all the way in the sedan chair.After Xie Moyou got off the sedan chair, Aunt Sun, who was in charge, saw that Xie Moyou's eyes were crying like rotten peaches, so she persuaded her softly, "Second Miss, we'll be home soon, don't cry, your face is all blurred. This autumn wind Cold and cool, if you cry again, the wind will blow and you will hurt your skin."

Xie Moyou sobbed twice, slightly better.

When they arrived at the Songbaiyuan, Aunt Sun told Mrs. Xie about Xie Moyou's prank with Xue Yuniang in Cheng'en Gong's mansion, "The little girl's family is spoiled and spoiled. Mouth. This is the pearl that Princess Ningrong rewarded the second girl."

Xie Moyou had been helped by Su Lan to wash up, Mrs. Xie couldn't accept Aunt Sun's words, so she went out happily with Princess Yi'an, and came back crying.Aunt Sun was obviously ordered by Princess Yi'an to give an explanation, but this was an understatement.

Fortunately, if Mrs. Xie is hard to say, Xie Moru is here.Xie Moru has always been able to share Mrs. Xie's worries, Xie Moyou said casually, "Since it's a small matter of arguing, Princess Ningrong is too polite, what pearls are you giving me?"

Aunt Sun said, "After all, it was in Duke Cheng'en's mansion, Princess Ningrong is also doing her best as a landlord."

"Princess Ning Rong is the mistress of the princess mansion. I don't know that the matter of Cheng En Gong's mansion is also decided by the eldest princess. Aunt Sun don't need to hide it from me. Even if I am blind, I can see it. Don't worry about crying, it must be Didn’t that Miss Xue come back from crying?” Xie Moru asked Aunt Sun, “Gum, tell me the truth, why did Miss Xue get into a fight with Mo You?”

Xie Moru's tone was calm all the time, but Aunt Sun felt that the autumn wind in the room was suddenly blowing up for no reason, bringing a bit of coolness. Aunt Sun did not dare to use the Spring and Autumn style of writing, so she said briefly, "Probably Miss Xue sent the second girl I recognize you. The second girl has a deep affection for your sister, she said you, and the second girl can't listen, so they quarreled like this."

At that time, Xie Moyou had just washed up, changed his clothes, put on makeup, and came to talk.Xie Moru asked her, "Is that so?"

Xie Moyou said, "I heard from Wang's cousin that Miss Xue is the granddaughter of Princess Ningrong, and her mother is Mrs. Yongyi Hou Shizi. She mistook me for the eldest sister. She wanted to trouble the eldest sister and said yes It's ugly."

Xie Moru was dying of curiosity, and asked her, "You just let her say it?" What's the use of a long mouth.

"That's not true." Xie Moyou lowered his head and muttered, Xie Moru said, "Tingqin, you say."

Tingqin is a servant of the Shangshu Mansion, and the whole family serves in the Shangshu Mansion. She is loyal and clever, so she learned the matter immediately, even Xue Yuniang scolded Xie Moyou, why did she return Xue Yuniang, what did Xie Moyou do Xue Yuniang returned.After listening to Xie Moru, Xie Moru asked Xie Moyou, "What's there to cry about, if you're not happy at the time, you should come back immediately, isn't it just a few sweet-scented osmanthus trees, who doesn't have one, I have to go to Cheng'en Gong's mansion, what is there to see. "

Xie Moyou's eyes turned red, and she didn't cry because of the quarrel with Xue Yuniang, she felt that Princess Ningrong was not human enough.Also, I thought I had a good relationship with Miss Hu's family, but in the end, it turned out that they didn't take her seriously at all.Was she crying because of Xue Yuniang's affairs?She wouldn't cry because of Xue Yuniang, she cried because she felt the greatest hypocrisy and malice in the world.

Xie Moyou sobbed.

Seeing that nothing happened, Mrs. Xie took a sip of tea and sent Aunt Sun back to the Princess Mansion.Mrs. Xie persuaded Xie Moyou, "You are not at a disadvantage, so stop crying."

Xie Moru said, "Yes, I earned a box of pearls for nothing."

Xie Mo was too worried to cry, "Have I never seen a pearl in my life?"

Xie Moru understood, and smiled slightly, "It turned out that I was crying because of the pearl." Xie Moyou had a strong self-esteem, Xie Moyou cried so much that it made people upset, Xie Moru simply called Li Qing's wife, and said, "Give this pearl to me." I sent it to Yongyi Hou's mansion, and said, I heard from Mo You that the girl in your mansion is always thinking about me, and I seldom go out. But one day Miss Xue is free, just come to Shangshu's mansion, I will be happy with tea and fruit Treat yourself to a good guest." Handed this box of pearls to Li Qing's wife, "Small little treat, let's give it to Miss Xue to enjoy."

Seeing Mrs. Xie, Li Qing's daughter-in-law didn't have any other objections, so she took Pearl and went to work.

Seeing Xie Moru's understatement, Xie Moyou sent the pearl to Yongyihou's mansion, and asked with red and swollen eyes, "Is it like this?"

"It doesn't matter if she succeeds or not. You are too. You are so angry because of a pearl. Why did you accept it in the first place?"

Xie Mo worried bitterly, "Princess Ning Rong gave it to me, can I not accept it?" She had been angry with Xie Moru before in her life, but today she became very angry all day long.

"If you don't want to accept it, you don't have to accept it."

"After all..." After all, she is the eldest princess, after all, she is not as noble as Xie Moru.

Xie Moru understood Xie Moyou's concerns, her lips were tightened, and a look of coldness could not help but appear in her phoenix eyes, without the Empress Shizu, the late emperor, and Princess Ningping, what kind of princess is she now!
Xie Moru suddenly asked Xie Moyou, "Has Princess Wenkang gone?"

Xie Moyou shook his head, "I didn't see the eldest princess."

Xie Moru's face was soothed, and his fingertips twitched lightly, Xie Moyou thought that Xie Moru was going to say something, but Xie Moru didn't say anything, and Xie Moru was so curious.As for the tears just now, Xie Moru sent someone to send the pearls to Yongyi Hou Mansion, Xie Moyou already felt wronged.She even felt that Xie Moru was pretty good, at least much better than those hypocritical people outside.In the past, she thought that Princess Yi'an was good, but Princess Yi'an never said a word of justice for him, but Xie Moru did it for her.

Xie Moru treated her better than many people.

Xie Moyou said sincerely, "Big Sister, if there is such a banquet in the future, we will go together. If they don't invite Big Sister, I won't go either."

The tea was a bit cold, Xie Moru asked Su Lan to change to a new one, and said lightly, "What's the matter, you and I have different temperaments, it's not bad to see the hypocrisy outside, it's still a kind of experience .Making friends has always been a big wave of scouring the sand. You can't expect any sincerity from those false excitement. Besides, you don't have to pay too much attention to this matter. Xue Yuniang is just an idiot. Today's matter, you may It's not a random disaster, she is more likely to be calculated by someone."

Xie Moyou's swollen eyes widened, "Big sister said that someone deliberately misled Xue Yuniang into thinking that I was you."

"It's very possible." Xie Moru said, "If Xue Yuniang asks if Miss Xie is here, all you need to do is point at her. With her hot temper, it's easy to cause misunderstandings."

"But, I haven't offended anyone outside?"

"Did I offend someone surnamed Xue?"

Xie Moyou easily believed Xie Moru's deduction, and sighed, "It seems that there is indeed no disaster."

Xie Mo worried bitterly, "I just don't know who is so vicious?"

"He must be a smart person. Princess Ningrong is not Xue Yuniang. Xue Yuniang was foolishly calculated by others. I can guess it. Princess Ningrong must be able to guess it." Xie Moru sipped tea, leisurely, "Maybe, Princess Ningrong is investigating this right now."

Princess Ningrong taught Xue Yuniang after seeing off the guests, "You are too reckless."

Xue Yuniang said, "I'm just expressing my anger for my grandmother and Princess Yongfu."

Princess Ning Rong hated iron for nothing, and said earnestly, "Xie Moru didn't offend me, so you don't have to vent your anger on me. You just want to provoke Xie Moru, and no one can recognize it. You have offended Xie Moyou for nothing."

"If you offend, you will offend. Isn't she a concubine?"

Princess Ningrong was so angry that she slapped the table, "Whether she is a concubine or not, she is a guest invited by your little aunt. With so many ladies from a famous family, how could you be so rude? Wouldn't it be a joke!"

Regardless of Xue Yuniang's low IQ value, her grandmother, Princess Ningrong, is very scheming, and her mother Hu's IQ is also good enough. Hu sighed softly, "You child, why are you so straightforward? Xie Mo No matter whether you are a concubine or a concubine, they are all girls from the Shangshu Mansion. If you have no grievances or enmity, why bother to humiliate her. Since you have admitted the wrong person, you should say a few nice words to her, let alone ridicule her background. "

"She was originally a concubine."

"You only know that she is a concubine. Her biological mother is the concubine's daughter of the Imperial College Jijiu. She became a concubine because of the troubles in the world. The Ning family is not bad now. Besides, her grandmother was born in Jinninghou's mansion. Her mother Her family is not bad, and she is younger than you, so why do you make things difficult for her. Even Xie Moru, don’t talk too much when you see her. The affairs of adults have nothing to do with you little girls. Besides, Princess Yongfu is filial to pray for the queen mother I went to Jingxin Nunnery, what status is Princess Yongfu, how can she suffer from a common girl?" Hu said a string of words on a jade plate, and asked her daughter, "Who told you today that Xie Moyou belonged to Xie Moru?"

Xue Yuniang said, "No one, my aunt said that there are several new girls who want to introduce me. We were talking, and there was a girl Wei from the Duke of Wei's mansion. My aunt went to receive Miss Wei. After looking around, I heard two maids talking about Miss Xie, I asked them and found out that it was Miss Xie from the Shangshu Mansion, I thought it was Xie Moru, so I went over to have a look."

Princess Ningrong asked, "Do you still remember what those two maids looked like?"

With Xue Yuniang's temper, how could she pay attention to the maid's appearance, but her maid was very useful, and she roughly talked about the maid's appearance.What's worse is that, according to the description of the maid, that's not the maid of Cheng'en Gongfu.As for the maids brought by other ladies, how can they be distinguished?

Ning Rong had nothing to do with Princess Chang and Hu's mother and daughter, as it was getting late, Hu had no choice but to take his daughter home first, and make other calculations.
