The real wife of the house fight will not go to court

Chapter 50

Rong Tiancheng was full of spring breeze, and led Jiang Shi forward, but Jiang Shi unexpectedly stopped in front of Rong Lanxue, stared at the gauze around her neck, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Rong Tiancheng laughed: "It's nothing, she accidentally knocked herself."

What can hit the neck?Jiang shi didn't look away, and looked straight at Rong Lanxue.

For some reason, Rong Lanxue always felt that she knew something, because there seemed to be some pity in that gaze, and something else.She thought about it for a while, and then she simply put the matter out: "My father wants to marry me to the Li family in the east of the city. I don't want to. I begged him to withdraw the marriage, but he refused. I have no choice but to make a bad move."

All the aunts knew how the wound on her neck came about, but when they heard the words from her own mouth, they were all amazed.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Rong Lanxue actually saw a smile on Jiang's face. There was surprise, pity, and a lot of contempt in it, but the eyes were not looking at her.

Jiang shi reached out and touched the gauze around her neck, then turned around and sat down on the main seat, Rong Tiancheng followed closely, and all the aunts kowtowed to salute.Rong Lanxue was hesitating whether to kneel down together, when she heard Jiang calling her: "Xue'er, you come here, you stay here, don't you just want to know why I came back, I'll tell you right now, so as not to delay Your kung fu."

Rong Lanxue was taken aback for a moment, and walked forward involuntarily.

The corner of Jiang's lips smacked a hint of sarcasm that was obviously not aimed at her, and said: "I don't think I can do what your mother did, turning a blind eye to the important events of my daughter's life. You are being sold for glory today, so how can you know if you will die tomorrow?" Is it my sister Qing's turn? I had sworn long ago that I would never set foot in this Rongfu again, but for her sake, and for me to be the master of her marriage, I can't help but be at your father's mercy, so I came back."

She, she actually wronged herself to come back so that Sister Qing would not follow in her footsteps!This maternal love really moved Rong Lanxue.

Jiang shi chuckled, waved his hand and said: "Now you know why I'm back? Don't worry, I don't care about anything, and I don't care about it. I only care about my sister Qing. But you are so fierce, I admire you." .Go down."

Rong Tiancheng was full of embarrassment, but he didn't dare to say anything about Jiang's, his face was very strange.

Rong Lanxue, on the other hand, respected the Jiang family, saluted respectfully, and then turned and left.

Back in Zhiyuan, Mrs. Ye was already waiting in her room. As soon as she saw her, she kept asking: "Xue'er, did you find out, why did Mrs. Jiang suddenly return to the mansion?"

Thinking about Jiang's mother-in-law's heart, and looking at Ye's who only wanted to have a son, Rong Lanxue suddenly became disheartened, shook her head, went back to her room and lay down.

Mrs. Ye also said there was some bad news, and in a hurry, she pulled Lianxiang to ask more and more.Lianxiang had no choice but to tell Mrs. Ye exactly what happened in the Rong Mansion just now.

After hearing this, Mrs. Ye was shocked, as if she couldn't believe it: "Mr. Jiang only came back for Sister Qing's marriage? She said she couldn't let Sister Qing follow Xueer's footsteps? Did she really say that? "

Lianxiang nodded and went out to serve Rong Lanxue.

Ye suddenly burst into tears, crying until his heart broke, and blamed himself for being useless, for not being able to protect Rong Lanxue, which caused her to be injured.Rong Lanxue heard it from the next door, she was afraid that she would hurt her baby if she cried, and she would have to get up again to comfort her, and she was flustered for a while.

Ye Shi also wanted to follow Jiang's example after crying, but unfortunately, the Jiang family had already changed the mistress, even if she wanted to intervene in Rong Lanxue's marriage, it would not work.Because of this, she regretted even more, and wanted to see Rong Tiancheng and have a good talk with him, but Rong Tiancheng didn't come to Zhiyuan for several days, and didn't ask anyone to pick her up to Rong's mansion, as if she had evaporated out of thin air. .

Compared with Ye Shi's panic, Rong Lanxue was much calmer. Like Rong Tiancheng's other children, she went to Jiang's room every day, morning and evening, never late, actually went more frequently than before.

After going through the previous two engagement turmoil, she has already left behind her set of thinking concepts before time travel, and she knows that if she wants to win a satisfactory marriage in this era, it is not enough to rely on her own strength alone. Tian Cheng can't be trusted, she can only have a glimmer of hope if she pleases the Jiang family.

What reserve, what pride, go to hell with it.Isn't there a saying that there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests?Although she has no interest at all in impressing Jiang and sharing with her, there are always advantages and no disadvantages in having a good relationship with her. At least there is no need to worry about her being behind the scenes like Rong Tiancheng, right?

In the early morning of Rong Mansion, bathed in the thin sunshine in the late autumn and early winter, the ancient trees are lush, and the autumn chrysanthemums are gorgeous. When autumn comes, although it is a bit bone-deep, it is also refreshing.

Rong Lanxue was wearing a pair of crimson soles, plain white uppers, and high-toed shoes embroidered with colorful flowers on the uppers. The high toe caps were turned up, just supporting her long crimson dress that dragged the floor, making her delicate and elegant. Lost in beauty, lively yet dignified, just like a roadside rose flower that is not afraid of the wind and cold and grows out of season.

Stepping on the path paved with white cobblestones with crimson soles, stepping on the rustling autumn leaves, towards the main room which has been hung with brocade curtains embroidered with wintersweet flowers, a maid immediately greeted her with enthusiasm and enthusiasm Greeted cordially: "Miss, why don't you come over from the veranda, to see that the gravel road wets your shoes." As she spoke, she lowered her head and saw the pair of high-toed shoes on her feet, her tone changed into admiration and envy: "Your shoes are really ingenious. I think you are the only one who can make them with your skillful hands."

The person who came was Luzhu'er, the maidservant of the main house, she followed Jiang and Li Dagui, and now she came back with her.Rong Lanxue smiled shallowly: "Sister Luzhu'er is very good, I'm clumsy, I hope my wife won't dislike me."

Lianxiang presented a brocade box at the right time, which contained a pair of identical high-toed shoes, but the materials were more expensive and the workmanship was more complicated.

Just as Luzhu'er was amazed, the jade plate handed over a wooden box, inside was a pair of red satin embroidered shoes, exquisitely embroidered and intricately patterned, with a trembling pearl embellished in the middle of the upper.

"This is..." Lu Zhu'er widened her eyes.

Rong Lanxue said with a gentle smile, "I heard that sister Luzhu'er is about to have a big wedding, so I will give it to my sister as a wedding shoe. I hope my sister will not be disgusted with it."

Luzhu'er's cheeks were flushed, but she quickly put away the wooden box, handed it to a little maidservant in front of her, and then bowed deeply to Rong Lanxue: "Thank you, Miss, for thinking about your servant."

Rong Lanxue nodded and smiled, and continued walking forward.Lu Zhu'er was holding the brocade box, followed behind her, and said with a smile: "Madam also exaggerated Miss Da's ingenuity yesterday, and the business in the shoe store overwhelmed the limelight of Li Ji Jinxiu shoe store."

After retiring from the Li family, Rong Lanxue withdrew the cooperation with the Li family in order to avoid suspicion, but she was reluctant to close the shoe-making workshop. She was worrying about how to open a shoe store when Jiang returned home. The Rong family's business came back, and she decided to raise funds throughout the prefecture. At this time, her shoes had already made a name for themselves in Linjiang County. Under her lobbying, the Jiang family was the first to contribute. Then, the third aunt and the fourth aunt who were close to the Jiang family also gave out the money and jointly took a share, while the remaining aunts either hated the Jiang family, or saw that the Ye family was driven out again, and Rong Lanxue's glory was no longer , unwilling to deal with her any more, they all took a wait-and-see attitude.

Back then, when the business of the Rong Mansion was about to go bankrupt, they were able to fight for a few gold and silver utensils. Now that the situation of the Rong Mansion has improved, they don't even want the silver that was delivered to them.I really don't know whether to say this is the way of the world, or short-sighted.

"Miss is here!"

The expensive brocade curtain from Jiangnan Embroidery Workshop was lifted, and Rong Lanxue stepped on the soft lichen and stepped into the room. Inside, several aunts had already arrived, but she was the first among young masters and young ladies.

Lu Zhu'er was the first to present the brocade box to the Jiang family, and said with a smile: "Madam, the young lady made you new shoes again. Look at the material and workmanship, you really can't find a second pair in Linjiang County. "

Liu Yiniang looked at the pair of pink shoes with gold thread on her feet, covered her mouth and smiled: "Luzhuer, you have such a sweet mouth today, why did you take advantage of the eldest lady?"

Luzhu'er's face froze, and Rong Lanxue chuckled softly: "It is true that I gave sister Luzhu'er a pair of red embroidered shoes to congratulate her on her upcoming wedding. However, sister Luzhu'er is not praising me, she clearly wants to praise my wife, but I was too embarrassed to speak up, so I was used as a cover - who doesn't know that my wife also has shares in my shoe shop?"

"That's not true, this slave girl's thoughts are known to everyone except the wife, that is, the eldest lady." Lu Zhu'er calmed down, smiled and answered the words, but there was a flash of resentment in her eyes.

Aunt Six snorted and turned her face away.

The second aunt still hated Rong Lanxue for throwing the inkstone at her, and she said with a smirk: "Since the eldest lady knows how to make shoes like this, why don't you make a pair for each of us aunts? Speaking of which, we Or your concubine?"

When Liu Yiniang heard this, she turned her face around again, and said with a smile: "What are we? It's not worthy of the eldest lady to make shoes for us. She is the eldest daughter of the master."

The second aunt laughed exaggeratedly: "The eldest daughter? Where is her mother? Why do I remember that my wife only gave birth to a young lady?"

Sixth Yiniang covered her mouth and smiled happily: "Oh, why did I forget this, her mother has been driven out of the mansion long ago, she is not as good as us concubines, what kind of eldest daughter is she?"

Rong Lanxue lowered her eyes, and said calmly: "My mother is from Heli, and even in the documents of Heli, she is still called wife, and even if you live in the mansion, you can only be called aunt. The difference. As for whether you are the eldest daughter or not, you have to judge by the law and the master, when will it be your turn to be a concubine? I think you are not enough to be a woodcutter."

Liu Yiniang recalled that day when she was locked up in the dark woodshed, Rong Tiancheng didn't punish Rong Lanxue afterward, she was filled with resentment, she snorted coldly: "You were a villain at that time, now you try to lock me up again. .”

Rong Lanxue glanced at her and said, "Now that my wife is here, it's not my turn to punish you."

"I'm sorry you don't dare." Liu Yiniang felt that she had regained some face, she raised her head and hummed.

Jiang put down the teacup that he had been holding all the time, cleared his throat, and all the aunts hurriedly got dressed, and even the sixth aunt didn't dare to do it again.

Jiang glanced down, and said in a flat tone, "Second Aunt and Sixth Aunt will be punished."

"What?!" Second Aunt and Sixth Aunt were shocked, "Madam, why are you punishing us?"

Jiang looked at them, didn't speak for a long time, then suddenly laughed: "It seems that I have been away for a long time, you dare to ask me something."

Second Yiniang and Sixth Yiniang were so frightened that their faces turned pale, they quickly lowered their heads, and did not dare to say anything.

"However, since you asked, if I don't answer, some people may have another idea in their hearts." Jiang picked up the teacup again, blew gently, and said, "Speaking disrespectfully in front of the eldest lady is one of the crimes. Slandering the former wife is the second crime. Talking back to the eldest lady is the third crime. What else do you have to say?"
