The Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 282
Everyone pushes against the wall, not to mention that the eldest prince has never been welcomed by people.After the emperor made the decree, the censors took turns to play, exposing the absurd behavior of the eldest prince in recent years.

Competing with the people for profit, conniving the milk brothers to search for the people's fat and people's anointing, and withholding the salaries of the sea patrol personnel, leading to instability in the sea and endangering the court.

A pile of crimes were directly charged on the head of the eldest prince, and someone who secretly monitored the eldest prince reported to Xiaozong that the king of Yongjun was swearing at the emperor in the county palace, and he also recruited masters of witchcraft to try to punish the princes. Conspiracy.

This is not bad!Xiaozong immediately ordered to summon Song Chen who was still at home on vacation, and ordered him to lead a hundred cavalry regiments from Zhen Fusi to surround the county palace.The Zhenfu Division is like a jackal, a tiger and a leopard. It is this kind of guy who raids the house on weekdays. The brand-new Yongjun Palace has been turned upside down. Not only have the private accounts of the eldest prince that have been honored by outsiders over the years been found, but also There is a seller's certificate.

This time there was no need for the Metropolitan Procuratorate to take action, the emperor directly ordered the eldest prince to be moved into a courtyard in the alley in the west of the city, and the Imperial Forest Army dispatched people to monitor him.Except for daily food and vegetables that can be transported in through the corner gate, the rest of the people are not allowed to leave the house.

King Yong has gone from house arrest to confinement.

After that, no one in the court dared to "rehabilitate" the eldest prince. Only when the new emperor came to the throne, the king of Yongjun, who had been imprisoned for 13 years, could see the light of day again.Although the new emperor crowned him as Prince Lian out of brotherhood, the Prince Lian died of illness before the new palace was completed, causing countless sighs from future generations.

Let’s not go into details about the future, just talk about the present.

Xiuyan has become a bride and is not the head of the house, so naturally she doesn't bother her with trivial matters.Although Lao Shangshu agreed with the young couple to move to Dongyi Hutong, he didn't say the specific time, and probably had to choose an auspicious day and time.

Song Chen was arrested by the emperor on an errand, Xiuyan got up on time every day to greet Mrs. Song.Seeing that the new daughter-in-law is well-educated and reasonable, Mrs. Song gradually let go of her original wariness, and this young daughter-in-law seems to know a lot about food and health, and she brings something to honor her every day, so Mrs. Song is even more pleased.

This day, the Second Young Mistress who had always been at the back of the palace was the first one to come, Mrs. Song probably hadn't got up yet, so the Second Young Mistress had to rest on the little twig in front of the door.Seeing Xiuyan entering the courtyard surrounded by people from afar, she covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "Today, I'm the one who took the lead, why are the third younger siblings later than me? Don't let the young couple talk late into the night, Forget about the time."

The people around Xiuyan all lowered their faces, but Xiuyan smiled indifferently and said, "Second Sister-in-law's dress is pretty tight, and her bright red eyes match your complexion. It's a pity that the earrings are not chosen for the occasion, and the strings should be used. My son is a gemstone."

Xiao Gao's eyes lit up, and he quickly touched his ear pendant: "I said something was wrong there! When I got up early, I read it several times and couldn't find out the reason. It was the third sibling who had sharp eyes, and I could see the clue at a glance. .It’s just that although I also have a few strings of gem pomegranate jewelry, but after all, the color is too black, and I don’t want to wear it.”

The courteous women had already brought out another handful of scorpions from the back room to Xiuyan, and Xiuyan sat down next to Xiao Gao, and said with a low laugh, "Jinlan Pavilion has the most jewelry, and I used to buy things at their house too, so how about that?" The shopkeeper's wife gave me a bunch of them, and when I find them at home, I will send the little girl to deliver them to my sister-in-law."

Xiao Gao smiled insincerely and declined: "How embarrassing! But I know Jinlan Pavilion, she has all the styles that are fashionable in the south, and the styles in the capital are also complete, but unfortunately the price is too expensive." Xiao Gao attached herself to Xiu Yan Er secretly said: "Your second brother is very stingy, how can it compare to the third brother's toughness, there is a way to get money!"

Xiuyan smiled but didn't answer, Xiao Gao took a look at Xiuyan, and then said shyly: "Why did the third sibling know about me so early? It's not because of my sister-in-law."

Xiao Gao curled her lips: "Seeing that the younger siblings respect the old lady every day, she couldn't sit still, so she found a chef from her natal family who specializes in cooking Beijing cuisine. It is said that the craftsmanship is amazing. I have a headache watching you fight in the ring, and I don't have the ability to do it myself." Please, I can only get up earlier every day, hoping that my mother-in-law will love me more because of my careful service."

Xiuyan couldn't stop laughing, she pulled Xiao Gao and said angrily, "It turns out that the second sister-in-law has annoyed me because of this, well, I won't deliver the food tomorrow, but I will be a companion with the second sister-in-law."

Xiao Gao was frightened and hurriedly said: "Siblings and sisters, please don't hurt me. If mother-in-law finds out that I have gossiped, she must reprimand me." Don't make things difficult for Sanfang, maybe her sons and daughters will still rely on Sanfang in the future!

Xiao Gao took Xiuyan and sighed, and as soon as the eldest wife Jiang came in, she saw the two of them talking together, one was smiling and the other was nagging.Jiang shi was slightly displeased, but she still led the crowd forward calmly.

"What are the two brothers and sisters talking about? They are so happy!" Mrs. Jiang pulled Xiao Gao with her left hand and Xiuyan with her right: "Grandma is awake? I just passed by the courtyard of the third sibling and I was looking for you to come with me. Who would want to?" The maids said that the siblings came a step earlier."

Xiuyan smiled and said: "Third Master went out early, it's not fun for me to stay at home by myself, why not come and accompany my mother-in-law."

Xiao Gao pursed her lips and laughed non-stop: "Otherwise, why would my mother-in-law like the third sibling so much, we will have to rely on each other from now on!"

The three sisters-in-law talked and laughed happily, but they were actually on guard against each other.

Xiao Gao made up his mind to win over Xing Xiuyan, which was completely opposite to his initial attitude towards Xing Xiuyan.As for Mrs. Jiang, on the one hand, she was afraid that the third room and the second room would get too close, and on the other hand, she did not want to see the second room Xiao Gao's relationship with her.

They were chatting and laughing outside, and in the room Mrs. Song had already got up under the service of her confidant nun.

"The three young mistresses outside are here?" Mrs. Song asked casually.

The confidant mother hurriedly smiled and said, "The second mistress came first, and the eldest mistress only entered the yard."

Mrs. Song snorted: "The second daughter-in-law has soft ears, she will believe whatever the second one says, maybe it was the second one who told her, and we will live in harmony with the third room in the future."

"Madam understands! To be fair, the old slave said that although the second young mistress is not as prudent as the eldest young mistress, she is not as good as the third young mistress, but she is better at being obedient and sensible. Madam, think about it carefully, when did the second young mistress and the second young mistress ever blush? Even if there is, it is because the Second Young Master scolded the Second Young Mistress, and I have never seen the Second Young Mistress make trouble for no reason." The confidant said: "After all, she is still Madam's niece!"

Mrs. Song sighed softly: "If it wasn't for this, why would I call Xiao Gao to come in under the black face of the master! From now on, she and the third daughter-in-law will walk around more, and it will not do any harm to the second wife. Go and call the three of them in, In case I freeze my body, those boys still come to ask me if I am."

The confidant mother knew that Mrs. Song was angry, so she responded with a smile.

All of a sudden, the three young mistresses entered the main hall, Mrs. Song looked at them one by one, and finally her eyes stayed on Xiao Gao: "Is this the material from your aunt?"

Xiao Gao hurriedly said: "Yes!"

Mrs. Song nodded: "That was the kindness of your eldest aunt. The eldest daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law also took advantage of the opportunity to make one, so as not to prevent the material from getting moldy after a long time."

Mrs. Jiang was slightly embarrassed, but Xiuyan said generously: "When I saw my second sister-in-law wearing this, I was so envious, and I was thinking of taking it out and making one!"

Xiao Gao understood, and hurriedly told Mrs. Song that Xing Xiuyan wanted to give her the gem durian earring.Mrs. Song rejoiced: "Which tailor do you invite to make? Our family is used to the craftsmanship of the needlework bureau."

Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Gao also seemed to be listening attentively. Since the third young mistress came to pay her respects every day after entering the door, she never wore heavy clothes, especially jewelry!Seeing their sisters-in-law are very jealous.

Xiuyan smiled and said: "In the past, I just asked the maids to cut and cut casually, but now I naturally follow my mother-in-law to do it in the sewing bureau."

Mrs. Song nodded in satisfaction. She would be stupid if she didn't appreciate the face her daughter-in-law gave her.

At the breakfast table, when it was time to show off her talents, the eldest and young grandmother took out the prepared creamy corn porridge to flatter: "This is the Nanyang people's way of eating. My daughter-in-law has tasted it herself. It tastes sweet, fragrant and refreshing. I will eat it with this plate of crispy cucumbers." Delicious."

Mrs. Song took a sip with a spoon in one hand. The corn porridge was boiled to a thick consistency, accompanied by the aroma of milk.

Mrs. Song had a big appetite, and picked up another piece of cucumber sticks to eat. It was green and crispy, with a slight spicy taste.

Jiang's heart was filled with joy, she smiled at Xiuyan and said, "What are the brothers and sisters preparing for today?"

Xiuyan smiled faintly, took the food box from Mio, lifted the red lid, and it turned out to be a blue and white plate wrapped with branches and flowers.

"Hey, can this corn be used as pancakes?" Mrs. Song wondered.

Corn is a foreign food in the past 30 to [-] years. Due to its rough texture, the ground flour is dry and hard, and it is only used by poor people to serve vegetables.

Mrs. Song had already eaten corn porridge today, and she didn't want Sanfang to send the same.

But Jiang's heart was beating secretly, suspecting that the big kitchen already had Xing Xiuyan's meticulous work.

The big girl behind Mrs. Song washed her hands with water and broke off one of them.Mrs. Song took a small bite, chewed slowly and expressionlessly, neither saying yes nor bad.

"Take this cake and the crisp cucumbers to the master to taste."

Mrs. Song pointed at the two dishes, and a little girl had already come over to pack the food boxes.There is no morning court today, Song Lian rested at his aunt's place, and Mrs. Song sent someone to deliver things to him.

After a while, the little maid came back and said with a smile: "Master has eaten and agreed, if there are still some cakes, I will make some at noon, and the master will take them to the yamen."

Mrs. Song hurriedly looked at Xiuyan, Xiuyan understood: "Daughter-in-law, I will ask someone to prepare it. In fact, not only this cake, but also the steamed stuffed bun with cornmeal is also very good."

When Mrs. Song heard this, she didn't ask Xiuyan to serve here, and immediately sent her to work.

At noon, Song Lian took pancakes and steamed buns to entertain several staff members, especially the steamed stuffed buns, the fillings were extremely delicious and they were also big in size. Each of them divided three or four, but it was not enough.

After that, some people went home and asked the lady on the stove to learn how to cook, but unfortunately it was not as delicious as that day.

Xiuyan also asked someone to send some to Song Chen, but it was a pity that Song Chen went to the palace to receive a messenger.The scent in the food box kept overflowing, and before Song Chen came back, it was wiped out by Ma Tingyuan who came to visit.

Since then, Song Chen's brothers went to Dongyi Alley more and more often to fight the autumn wind, and they often entered the door hungry, and when they went out, they wanted to hold on to the door frame!

　Heatstroke~~Xiaohe's small laptop also started to blue screen, I'm scared!
