Splendid concubine

Chapter 124

As soon as the carriage arrived at Li's mansion, Liu Ruyi from the Li family and Li Fanyin greeted them, and greeted Mu Zitan and Liu Ruyi very politely. People who have never been in contact with the Li family before, their impression of them is only that of the second prince. information.

"I've always heard that the princess is beautiful, and today I saw her, only to find out that she is indeed a celestial being. I've been waiting like a torrent..." The Miss Li family praised Mu Zitan politely, but she was interrupted by Mu Zitan before she finished speaking.

"Sister Li's sister is also very beautiful, so it's alright for us to come and disturb you rashly?" Mu Zitan was very polite and polite.

Liu Ruyi was ignored at this time, and she didn't really want to come forward to be polite. The reason is that Liu Ruyi received very little education in the Liu Mansion in her previous life. Profound, many things, but superficial, I hate such polite speech the most.

Liu Ruyi from the Li family and Mu Zitan finished exchanging greetings, and turned to Liu Ruyi. Liu Ruyi said straightly, "Sister Li, to tell you the truth, we are here to join in the fun today. I am an older sister, and I will bring my younger sister out to see you." See the world."

The other ladies and family members at the door looked at Liu Ruyi in surprise.

Bring your sister to see the world, what about your mother?
Although everyone didn't ask, they all thought this way in their hearts, that is, the mother in the family died and there were no elders, so the elder sister brought the younger sister out to see the world.

There is an old lady in the prime minister's house, and there is a big lady below, how can a sister bring a younger sister out to meet the world?

Liu Ruyi smiled and looked at these people who were thinking about the inside story of Xiangfu, thinking that this is what she wanted to achieve, let's imagine.

After entering Li's residence, Mu Zitan and Liu Jiaren looked around, but there were people like them, so it didn't look like they were rude.

After all, Li's mansion is a family from a poor family. Although the house is large, there are no expensive rockery, rare flowers and plants, and there are no towers or pavilions.

However, the backyard is not bad, there is actually a large bamboo forest, and there are many ordinary flowers and plants, all of which are common, although simple, but also have a unique flavor.

It can be seen that the Li family is considered to be a clean and honest official as a doctor of imperial history.

The people who came to Li's mansion were all frequent visitors, and they didn't dislike the rudimentary backyard of Li's mansion. They found places to sit down and chatted together in twos and threes.

Liu Jiasheng was afraid that Liu Ruyi would turn away from her because she was not good at doing things this time. As soon as she sat down, her eyes rolled around and she looked around, but she couldn't see anything.

After a while, he said with a bitter face: "Second sister, my good second sister, I know that Miss Li was pitifully cheated, how can I find evidence and tell her?"

After taking a sip of tea, Liu Ruyi said calmly, "Who told you to find evidence? In my opinion, this requires a good relationship with Miss Li. How to find an opportunity to lead her to hear what the third son said about her Bad words."

"So simple?" Liu Jiaren's eyes widened.

"Then why do you think it's so difficult?" Liu Ruyi asked back.

"Well, today we're actually going out to play, and get along with Ms. Li by the way?" Liu Jiaren asked again uncertainly.

"Yes." Liu Ruyi replied.

Liu Ruyi and her group were having fun outside, but in Liu's mansion, the eldest lady was frowning, almost crying.

What is this?I don't know when, the situation of my mother and three has become worse and worse. Now my son is not studying abroad, but is sent out.

The daughter didn't dare to go out, and her good reputation was ruined.

Even my natal family, which was originally a well-known family that could be relied on, went from bad to worse. Now that there was such a big scandal in her natal family, anyone with a discerning eye knew that Mrs. Zhao was pushed out to take the blame. The Zhao family didn't know how many people were involved in this Things, reputations are all ruined.

Even more, he was confiscated by the old lady as a housekeeper, and he was not allowed to step out of the courtyard, and the elder refused to look at him.

These days, there is no hope at all.

After lying on the bed for a long time, the eldest lady's face was very haggard. The nurse next to her was very anxious after seeing it, but she couldn't help her.

Lying quietly, after a long time, the doctor finally said: "Go and invite my mother, I need to find my mother."

The nanny quickly agreed to go out, sent someone to the Zhao residence, and invited the old lady over.

The old lady of the Zhao Mansion is not young anymore, her hair is gray, she was in good spirits, she looked younger, but because of something happened in the past two days, her whole person suddenly became much older, she heard that her daughter was looking for her, although Some didn't want to move, but insisted on coming.

When she was helped into the house and saw her daughter, she threw her crutches and rushed over, almost crying, "Daughter, why have you been spoiled like this? Tell your mother if you have anything to do, don't worry about your mother's family. It's okay, Zhao's residence is... still standing, it's fine."

Although the eldest lady knew how modest her mother said, she could only bite the bullet and pretended not to know, and immediately told her mother about her situation.

Mrs. Zhao was really angry and kept beating the bed with her fists, "My good daughter of the Zhao family, why was she ruined like this? If your father was alive, he would definitely not be reduced to this level. We are a scholarly family after all. Back then you When your father is around, even the emperor will salute your father, he is very respectful to us."

The eldest lady looked at Mrs. Zhao's righteous indignation, sighed, and said: "After all, it's all in the past. Now my brother and brother are not up to date, and my nephews are also stupid. The ones with the brains are me and my sister." , but they are all married, so I can't help you anymore, but now you help me think about it, what should I do? One person counts the short, and two count the long."

Let's not talk about Da Furen and Mrs. Zhao muttering, thinking about something.

Over there, Aunt Jia lay on the bed and closed the doors and windows tightly.

The maid hurriedly took a bowl of soup, Aunt Jia drank it down in one gulp, wrinkled her face, and said helplessly, "Why is this soup so bitter?"

The maid beside her quickly said, "If you suffer a little bit now, it will be fine in the future?"

Aunt Jia sighed helplessly: "Eat this every day, and make up for me every day. If I drink it, I won't be replenished. I don't know what will happen? Some people should be happy. This, how much they hate me. I saw that they were uneasy and kind, and they wanted to get rid of my child."

The maid hurriedly said: "Auntie, let me speak more directly. Don't blame me. The old lady loves you. The century-old ginseng will make soup and stewed chicken for you. Even if the lady wants to eat a century-old ginseng, she dare not do so." It's blatant, one tree a day."

"If I were my aunt, I would drink three meals a day even if my nose bleeds from drinking it every day. If I tell it, it's something worth showing off."

Aunt Jia sneered, "It depends on what kind of child I am pregnant with. If it is a son, everyone will be happy. If it is a daughter, I am afraid that the master will not be too happy. The master has been looking forward to his son for a long time. Only the eldest master and the second young master, if I can give birth to the third young master, then our status will be much higher in the future."

These days, my aunt always likes to think too much, and the maid who persuaded her is almost worn out, and it doesn't help, but I still have to persuade.

The servant girl persuaded: "Don't think so, aunt. Isn't it good to be only the fifth young lady? Well, Aunt Li gave birth to the second young master. I don't think her status is as good as yours now."

"You don't understand, after giving birth to a son, there is someone to rely on, and after giving birth to a daughter, marry off, how can the water that is poured out help mother?" Aunt Jia said, and she was about to cry again.

The servant girl quickly flattered her and said, "I saw that the expression on your aunt's face was a little distorted, and I almost couldn't help grinning. You are not only pregnant with a child, but you are also so favored by the old lady. If the housekeeper hadn't been pregnant , it’s all yours, I don’t know how other people envy you and hate you! I’m also proud to be with Auntie. You can be regarded as the best in the aristocratic circle in the capital. Auntie, you have to take good care of it. , we can’t give up on ourselves. Our lady beauty has climbed up to the princess and the princess, and we are stiff.”

Saying this, the servant girl was not without exaggeration, but it still made Aunt Jia feel a lot better.

After she was pregnant with a child, Aunt Jia always thought wildly.

The servant girl continued talking for a while, but Aunt Jia got impatient and continued to listen, and sent him away, tossing and turning on the bed.

She sat up holding her belly, feeling a little worried. In the mansion, even with the support of the old lady, it would be useless without the master's favor. How many days has the master not come to her place.

When she was pregnant with Liu Jiaren, the master did it right, but for a moment, she thought that after she was pregnant with a child, she would not look so good-looking, so she was a little disheartened.

Fifth Auntie was only wearing unlined clothing and no shoes, she just sat there all afternoon, her mind was heavy, and in the evening, when the maid wanted to go in and ask if she wanted to pass on the meal, Auntie Jia had already burned up and lay there unconscious. It's hot.

Seeing Aunt Jia's flushed face, the servant girl panicked and hurried to find the old lady.

The old lady always loves Fifth Aunt, and when she heard about this, she quickly dropped the things in her hands, she didn't even put on her shoes, and ran to see Fifth Aunt while calling her dear, "Oh my son, what's wrong with you?" I haven't seen you for a long time, and you have become like this, because the servant girl is not dedicated to serving you, so drag me out and beat you."

Naturally, the servant girl hurriedly begged for mercy, expressing all of Fifth Yiniang's worries.

The old lady's face was still gloomy, but she had already calmed down a lot. After a long time, she grabbed Fifth Yiniang's hand and cried again, "Even if you don't have children, your status in the mansion will not be worse. With me here One day, I think the beauty is backed by the princess, and she is clever, and she will not be bad in the future. You don't care if he is a boy or a girl. Whether it is a boy or a girl, Angie will have to do it too. Take it."

Fifth Yiniang's lips were chapped, she opened her mouth with difficulty, and said to the old lady: "Old lady, I see that the lychees around me are growing well, and I want to take over the house for the master."
