Chapter 1229: Second Lady Sugar-Coated Cannonballs
Lu Yunqi kept his promise very much, and took Mo Song out that afternoon to buy dozens of carp. There are two small streams in Xin'an Yuan, which eventually converge into a small lake, and it just so happens that there is nothing in it, only a pool of clear water, so Lu Yunqi fortunately bought some more and put them all in the water. The water in the whole yard is connected, and I think that in the future, you can see carp inhabiting everywhere in the house.
Shen Nanzhi is not the kind of pretentious woman, even if she was indeed a little angry at the time, but after calming down, she felt that it was really unnecessary. It's not that she didn't hear Lu Yunqi's answer to the Xian Guifei, it can be said that she has done her best to abide by the way of a courtier and has not exceeded the rules, how can she blame Lu Yunqi? In other words, is it his fault that someone admires Lu Yunqi?
After figuring it out, there was naturally no burden, and seeing that his wife didn't drill the horns, Lu Yunqi was a little more apologetic, and the next morning before going to the court, he specially said that he would bring her some delicious food back at noon.
After the hour, Qiu Niang and the stumbling orange came to the main courtyard to say goodbye, and Shen Nanzhi got up from the bed with difficulty, but when he was freshening up, he was told that the lady in the second room also came.
For a while, the little girls in the room panicked, hurriedly dressed Shen Nanzhi, and when she felt the front hall, she saw the second lady and the two concubines sitting in it together, waiting for Shen Nanzhi.
Shen Nanzhi was stunned, then squeezed out an innocent smile and hurriedly stepped forward: "Second aunt, why did the second aunt come so early?" Why don't you invite the second lady to wait inside? Duan asked the second aunt to wait outside for a long time. ”
This second lady is also a strange person, acting harshly and ruthlessly, but to be honest...... is a straw bag with no ability, otherwise with her nosy temperament, how could there be so many concubines in the second room? The second lady can't control it, but she has to manage it, and she has a bad reputation, and in the end, the situation will deteriorate, but it will become a vicious circle.
Shen Nanzhi was already too busy to take care of herself for the second lady, but she didn't want to have time to come to her.
Qiu Niang and Fei Cheng both got up and asked Shen Nanzhi to say goodbye, Shen Nanzhi waved her hand and asked the two to sit down, but she had just done it here, and the second lady over there couldn't wait to sneer and mock: "Hey, second daughter-in-law, why do you get up so late on weekdays?" ”
The smile on Shen Nanzhi's face froze, but she quickly sorted out her thoughts, and said with a smile: "Yes, my mother-in-law said that she was eating fasting and chanting Buddha in the room these days, and asked me, as a daughter-in-law, not to disturb her, and I also dragged my mother-in-law's blessing and was able to sneak away for a few days." ”
The implication: My own mother-in-law didn't say anything, how can you have a place to speak!?
Sure enough, the second lady didn't hear Shen Nanzhi's sarcasm at all, but became even more angry, reached out and slapped the table, and scolded: "How can this be done!?" Whose daughter-in-law doesn't get up early to take care of it? The second child is a scholar, and he is not a country man, and you are a little indulgent in the rules of everyone! ”
Why didn't Shen Nanzhi remember that someone had set such a rule, saying that the new daughter-in-law must get up before dawn? Is this marrying a daughter-in-law or marrying an employer!?
Although he was unhappy in his heart, Shen Nanzhi was still patient and said with a smile: "Our Lu family doesn't have such rules, it must be the second aunt who disciplines the second uncle's concubines at home with strict rules, so I have to learn how to get along with the concubines in the room like the second aunt......"
Qiu Niang and Tripping Orange lowered their heads and did not speak.
The second lady was red-faced, and she was so angry that she wanted to scold - isn't this just mocking her with the fact that the second old man does not change his sex? So he scolded angrily: "You...... How can you make fun of your elders like this!? Are there any rules? ”
"The second aunt misunderstood, Nanzhi was serious, and she didn't think about teasing anyone." Shen Nanzhi said calmly, "I don't know what the second aunt came here for early this morning?" ”
The second lady had a bad mouth, and she could only scream indiscriminately, so she could only stare at Shen Nanzhi and get angry, and when she changed the topic by herself, the second lady had no choice but to get off the donkey and snort: "I heard that the second child has not rested in the room of the two of them?" "'The two of them' are naturally Qiu Niang and Tripping Orange.
Shen Nanzhi nodded, almost guessing what the second lady meant.
"How does this work!? The most important thing for a big family like ours is to pass on the lineage, as a wife, the last thing you can do is to hold a man by your side, so as not to let people outside say that you are jealous and don't understand the rules! The second lady scolded.
"I have been married to the second master for less than a month," Shen Nanzhi sat quietly, not looking at the faces of the two people, Lilac brought the tea, she took a cup, looked at the tea leaves in the cup, and said, "If the second master went to the concubine's room so early, wouldn't he let outsiders say that our husband and wife are not willing to be of the same heart?" The second aunt can rest assured, after some time, I will always have a time when my body is not happy, if the second master needs someone to serve, how can I hold someone and refuse to let go? ”
The second lady snorted coldly, took a sip of the tea that came up, only felt that the entrance was sweet and the aftertaste was endless, she had never eaten such good tea in her room! For a while, I couldn't help but feel a little sour in my heart, and it was even more unpleasant to look at Shen Nanzhi, "This can't be done, I see that the second master is not interested in these two, you always have to look for a newcomer for your husband, what, are you really going to wait for the second child to go to the Fengyue place to lead a long song into the door?" ”
“……”
Shen Nanzhi took a sip of tea, looked at the second lady quietly, and smiled lightly after a long time: "The second aunt is here today, there must be a big event, right?" ”
The second lady had already called this Shen Nanzhi panicked in her heart, and when she heard this, she had no choice but to stop going around in circles, and shouted to the outside of the door: "Luomei-" A girl dressed in a green gauze came outside.
This woman named Luomei was born slender, but her hair was loose, and she looked like she was hooked and gas, and her clothes seemed to be the clothes of the female envoy in the second house.
Shen Nanzhi didn't speak, and looked at the second lady with a chuckle, and the second lady straightened up: "This Luomei is a down-and-out official lady outside, and she is really good at doing it all over, I see that you can take it back and make a room in the second room." I said the second daughter-in-law, ordinary people have to be wary of being concubines, but this Luomei has a good background in the end, and she can carry everything clearly, which is better than some people who are not careful! ”
