Chapter 609: Flustered and Pretentious
"Ru'er, why are you so depressed? Are you scared because of what your mother did to the unruly servants the night before yesterday?" Madam Tai reached out to touch Shao Yanru's head and said lovingly.
The wife's health has become much better these days, and the doctor said she just needs to take good care of herself. She is dressed in a dark-striped brown jacket, with a string of Buddhist beads hanging on her chest. She smiles so kindly that anyone who looks at her feels like it. The lady in front of me is a kind person, the most kind and the most Buddha-natured person.
He stretched out his hand to pull Shao Yanru to his side, his face also full of distress.
"It's true that your mother will deal with it as soon as it is dealt with. People who steal like this are not sent to the government. As long as the government punishes her alone, it is considered a blessing for her. But how can your mother call other servants I'm going to watch the execution, look at it, it really scares you!"
The madam looked at Shao Yanru, who was slightly pale, with distress. In her words, she even blamed her most distressed daughter-in-law!
It’s no wonder she’s partial. In the whole house, she is the only one who likes Shao Yanru the most. Although she is not as good as her eldest grandson, in terms of love, Shao Yanru deserves to be number one. The eldest grandson, Shao Huaan, is This aspect of love is also slightly inferior.
"Grandma, I'm worried about the fifth sister!" Shao Yanru lowered his head, took the madam's hand and shook it a few times, "Grandma, I want to see the fifth sister. Is she awake? She must be our house after all. It’s not appropriate for the young lady above to continue living in the eldest princess’s mansion like this!”
Hearing that she mentioned Shao Wanru, the smile on Mrs. Tai's face fell away, and she became angry. She already knew what happened to Shao Wanru at the foot of Yuhui'an Mountain yesterday, and she didn't take it seriously: "She Since you don't think of us as your home, why should you care about her so much? You child is too kind-hearted and too soft-hearted. She was meditating in the mountains before, and you still wanted to accompany her, but look at how she treats you!"
Madam Tai reached out her fingers and tapped Shao Yanru's forehead hard, as if she hated iron for not being able to become steel.
"Grandma, she is the fifth sister!" Shao Yanru's eyes turned red, feeling aggrieved.
The madam sighed helplessly and dropped her hand: "She went down the mountain inexplicably at that time and didn't know what happened. Then something happened there again. After she was rescued, she didn't go back to her house, but went to the big house. Let’s go to the princess’s house. If our family knows about her, we have to get it from other people’s mouths. Since she is so alienated from our family, we don’t have to be too accommodating to her.”
Aunt Yu, who was standing behind the Madam, raised her head slightly and looked at the Madam, who was about to say something. However, when she saw Shao Yanru's eyes sweeping over, she lowered her head involuntarily and pulled her sleeves tightly with her hands, for fear that she would One can't help but say the wrong thing.
What happened to the Fifth Miss the night before yesterday has been widely spread. It is said that the Fifth Miss was deceived into going down the mountain, and she hurried down the mountain because she was worried about the health of Mrs. Qin. She fainted after that. She was also the eldest princess of Ruian. The reason why the person who was picked up did not come from the family's house was because no one at the family's house paid any attention to the matter. It is said that the matter was also reported to the door of Xingguo Duke's Mansion that night, but the doorman did not take it seriously.
It's just that it's hard for her to say these words to a servant. Even though she has been following the Madam for so long, she really feels that the Madam is wrong!
In fact, it was wrong from the beginning!
"Grandma, don't be angry. It doesn't matter what the fifth sister has done wrong, or she doesn't regard us as real relatives. People's hearts are warm, so we just need to cover them up. Grandma, I'm still worried about the fifth sister. I want to go and see her. Look at her, okay?" Shao Yanru coquettishly shook the wife's hand.
Looking at Shao Yanru with longing in front of her, Mrs. Tai was angry and resentful. Originally, nothing had happened, but this Shao Wanru had caused so many things to her family. She was really a troublemaker. As long as she thought of this, She really couldn't like it, so she touched the beads around her neck with her fingers, trying to calm herself down.
This house-ruiner is really annoying, and I don’t know what I owe her in this life for letting her mess up his family like this.
"Go ahead and bring some supplements to see if she is really fainting or fake. If she is awake, let her come back early. My daughter of Duke Xingguo's mansion does not have to stay at my maternal grandfather's house. Let her come back early." People would think that our house has no yard to live in." The Madam snorted coldly.
Aunt Yu looked at the Madam and hesitated to speak. Although the courtyard was indeed given to the Fifth Young Miss due to the strength of the eldest Princess Ruian, the Madam was only moving things outside that were originally placed inside. No other objects were moved inside, so no one could live in it for a while!
But this matter was arranged by Mrs. Xingguo. Aunt Yu felt that it would be better for her to keep silent, so she lowered her head again.
"Okay, grandma, I'll go see the fifth sister and tell you how she is doing when I get back. Grandma, don't worry!" Shao Yanru said gently with a smile on her face.
Seeing this, the Madam's heart softened and she nodded repeatedly, "Okay, go and come back quickly. Be careful and don't offend this girl again. If what she says doesn't sound good, just come back by yourself if you don't listen!"
This granddaughter is the most important to her. On the one hand, she can talk and attract people's affection. On the other hand, the Madam has high hopes. In the future, she will have to rely on this granddaughter to improve the strength of the entire Xingguo Palace. The Xingguo Palace of our own can still flourish for a hundred years.
On this point, the Tai Furen's love for Shao Yanru was naturally kept in her mouth for fear of melting away.
"Grandma, I understand!" Shao Yanru said softly, stood up and bowed deeply to the Madam, then turned around and left with the maid.
"This child is so kind, but they don't take her seriously, and yet she is so warm-hearted!" Mrs. Tai sighed as she looked at Shao Yanru's leaving figure.
Aunt Yu knew that she was talking to her, so she greeted her with a smile: "Madam, don't blame the eldest lady. The eldest lady was raised so well and so kindly. It's not because of the Madam's teachings. Who is in the capital now?" When talking about the eldest lady, don’t exaggerate the young lady, this kind of demeanor is the demeanor of a mistress!"
Shao Yanru's future marriage direction is naturally to the royal family. In addition to several masters of Xingguo Duke's mansion, several confidants also know about it.
The royal mistress is, in the smallest terms, the head of the palace, and in the largest terms, she is the mother of a country!
The madam narrowed her eyes and laughed, nodding her head repeatedly: "That's not what it is like, this child...forget it, this child has such a good-tempered temperament, it is because of her own growth. Look at the little one, he is so petty, he is indeed a little one. She was raised from a small family, how can she have the character of a lady like everyone else!"
The first half of the sentence was about Shao Yanru, so she looked gentle. The second half was about Shao Wanru, and her face immediately turned cold, full of disgust.
Ever since she recognized Shao Wanru, Mrs. Tai has been regretting why she let people in like this. She should have intervened forcefully to take care of the matter at that time. She couldn't just let this girl recognize her ancestor and return to the clan. Look at it now He spoiled her so much that he didn't even know who his father's family was. He went to the eldest princess's house all day long and let the eldest princess, a shrew, find fault with him.
Every time she thought of this, Mrs. Tai became very angry and felt that she was really too merciful at that time!
She was so unruly before she recognized her ancestors and returned to the clan. After she recognized her, she originally wanted to teach her a lesson, but unfortunately this girl had to go to the mountain to practice filial piety and observe filial piety. She could only wait for her to come back from Yuhui Temple before teaching her a lesson properly.
If she can't be taught well, don't match her with any kind of marriage. If the Xingguo Duke's mansion can't afford to raise an old girl, it will just die in the backyard of the Xingguo Duke's mansion. This will prevent her from creating another enchanting child. The entire Xingguo government was implicated.
"The biggest difference between the eldest young lady and the fifth young lady is that one was taught by you personally." Aunt Yu said with a smile.
"When Wanru comes back, I have to teach him well, so as not to lose the face of our family." Mrs. Tai nodded, and she already had an idea in her mind. There are still a few months left, and she will have to prepare some things here. When the time comes, Shao Wanru can be educated well so that she will not be confused about her current surname!
The carriage of Duke Xingguo stopped in front of Princess Ruian's house. The maid had already got off the carriage and went to the door to report. Shao Yanru was waiting in the car. Although her face was calm, her heart was very uneasy. Shao Wanru was now She didn't know the specific situation, so she came here to take a look.
People outside are now saying that she or Qin Yuru harmed Shao Wanru, and the matter is still in the Ministry of Justice.
Qin Yuru did this, but if this matter is involved, it can be involved on herself. She is really uneasy. She has to see Shao Wanru before she can make a decision. If not, she can also ask King Yue and King Zhou to help To clear herself of the suspicion, it must be Qin Yuru who really takes action this time. She just needs to be careful not to have anything to do with Qin Yuru...
A boy ran out and led the carriage of Duke Xingguo to the side door. Once inside, a woman came to guide him. They turned all the way to the parking place and the carriage stopped.
Shuqi helped Shao Yanru get out of the carriage.
Shao Yanru looked around and found that this was a large parking lot, but there were only two cars parked, including his own. He thought this should be a place for foreigners to park their carriages, but he didn't know who else was coming today. Visited the eldest princess.
It looked like the carriage was parked at the very back. If there was a sign, it was against the side inside. I really couldn't tell which house it belonged to at the moment, but judging from the size and appearance of the carriage, it shouldn't be anything. A particularly powerful family.
Shao Yanru glanced at it and came to an accurate conclusion. She ignored the carriage in front of her and followed the woman who led the way all the way in!
She is here to find out the truth today, and the person she corresponds to is Shao Wanru. Is he still unconscious? She really doesn't believe it!
