Mrs. Jiang smiled and said, "Mother-in-law is such a smart person, she hasn't seen the mystery yet? The second aunt treats us as her own, and speaks and acts casually. The mother and daughter are outsiders, so naturally they should be more polite. The uncle transferred us last month. Going to the well-off Yamen and being promoted to a higher rank is not because of the help of Master Meng, this is the real thing...we don't want those fake things."

Men are promising, and a girl marrying into a good family is indeed what the Jiang family needs most at present.
The old lady curled her lips and said, "That Liu family is so vulgar, she talks loudly and doesn't know what to say, and she looks ugly, and the Meng family even let her out to make her look shameful. Oh, it's our Jiang family who can train their daughters. It's a pity that the girl has a look. She is a virtuous and capable housewife."

Mrs. Jiang praised her, "It's a pity that the girl has no mother since she was a child. She was taught by her mother-in-law."

Only then did Mrs. Jiang cheer up again.

Mrs. Meng was tired, so she sent a message that everyone would have their own dinner.

In the side room of the upper room in the main courtyard, Mrs. Liu and Niu Xiu sat on the kang and whispered.

The setting sun dyed the window screen red, and the halo came in, putting rouge on Niuxiu's little face, making the little girl look more handsome and lovely.

Looking at her beloved daughter, Liu's smile grew stronger.

Niu Xiu smiled brightly, holding a string of incense beads wrapped with gold threads in her hand, and talked about how she and Huang Xin were called to kowtow to Princess Yichang at Fu'an Hall.

"Sister Jingjing accompanied us. The eldest princess likes me very much. She held my hand and praised me for my calm demeanor..."

The eldest princess of Yichang praised her daughter for "stable behavior", and Liu was very happy.

Today is the first time she has entertained guests as the head of the Chengguo Mansion, and the old lady asked Second Grandma Meng to follow her around to mention something to her.Although there was surprise and curiosity in those people's eyes, and they inevitably laughed at her in their hearts, they did not lose respect on the surface.

It's enough for them to show respect on the surface, but also to save face and not to be heart-to-heart.

The biggest gain today is that my daughter's performance has received unanimous praise. Almost all the wives and grandmas said that she is dignified, stable, delicate and handsome, and she has become a handkerchief handkerchief with Zheng Jingjing, the third daughter of the Zheng family.

There weren't many guests here today, except that Jiang's family was a royal family with status, and the daughter's good reputation was spread among the powerful circles.

Mrs. Liu knew that Mrs. Jiang had asked Zheng Tingting to speak kindly to Princess Dachang, and she accepted the favor.There is also Huang Xin, who always holds her daughter's hand and plays with those little girls.

After the meal, Mrs. Liu found a pink soft smoke suitable for a little girl to make clothes from the dowry, and a pair of pearl earrings, and asked them to give them to Huang Xin and Mrs. Jiang respectively.

The night was dark, with half a bright moon hanging high in the sky.

The Meng Mansion is extremely quiet.

There is a grove not far from the second gate, and there are two wing rooms in it, where three women who watch the night live and a woman who guards the second gate.

There is a rule in the mansion that the two doors are locked at the end of Xushi.As long as the second door is locked, only the old man and the old lady have the right to let people open the lock, and if something serious happens.

After this point, even if the Duke and Shizi want to return to the inner courtyard from the outer courtyard, they have to climb the wall.

The woman who was watching the night would walk around the inner courtyard every two hours, and they opened the door and went out again.

The sound of small footsteps was getting farther and farther away, and there were a few meows from the wall of the outer courtyard.

It is somewhat similar to Huahua's barking, people who don't know it may think it is the pet cat in Grandma's yard coming out to play.

Only the woman who watched the second door knew that it was not Huahua's voice.

The mother-in-law came to the window, coughed loudly twice, and the cat meowed again.

There is a situation.

She quickly put on her clothes, came to the second door, knocked on the second door twice, and threw a small ball of paper on the other side of the door.

She picked up the ball of paper and opened it. She didn't know the words inside, but she saw a turtle drawn on it.

She crumpled up the paper again and ran to the main courtyard.

The main courtyard is very close to the second gate, and it takes only half an hour to arrive.

Liu Shi was in a deep sleep, when Qiaolan woke her up suddenly, "Ma'am, a letter has been delivered outside."

Mrs. Liu took it and looked at it, and sneered twice.

She had given up on that man, she was not sad, but angry.He promised verbally and made a pledge on paper. In just one month, he violated it.He dared to do this because he didn't take himself seriously.

If she endured it, that paper agreement was useless, and the old man gave her a "hidden stake" in vain.

Mrs. Liu said, "Let Qiaomei and Qiaojuan copy the guys over here, call the two rough envoys, and then find out my men's clothes."

Her current personal girl came here after leaving the Niu Mansion, and had never fought with her.Nanny Liu is her nanny, not only old, but also getting in the way.

Qiaomei and Qiaojuan were her girls in the early years, they were invincible in fights with her at Niu's house, and they followed her after they got married.

Both Qiaolan and Qiaoju changed their faces, knowing that the eldest lady was about to fight.Qiaolan opens the closet to look for men's clothing, while Qiaoju runs to the backyard to call for someone.

A quarter of an hour later, Mrs. Liu, with her hair tied up and wearing men's hard clothes, led four women with big arms and round waists out of the main courtyard.Those four people were holding things in their hands, some were holding ropes, some were holding sticks, and some were holding ladders.

The moonlight is like water, and the silver glow is all over the ground.

A few brisk walks, in the silence, the sound of a few small footsteps is particularly obvious.

Before they reached the second gate, there were a few soft roars from behind, "Who, stop."

Then there was the sound of running, and three women watching the night caught up.

"Madam?"

A woman exclaimed.

"I have something important to do with Meng Daoming in the outer courtyard." Liu said without changing his face.

She saw that the women were very embarrassed, and said, "Just pretend you didn't see it, and you won't be troubled."

The mothers-in-law guessed that the eldest lady might be going to clean up people.The gods want to fight, how dare they say no?
"Oh, we didn't see anything." With that said, the women turned and walked to the other side.

When they came to the second gate, the lady guarding the gate did not dare to come out.

Mrs. Liu handed the key to the woman named Qiaomei. The woman opened the door and several people walked out.

After the people let go, the night watch lady didn't dare to pretend to be stupid anymore, and ran to Fushengju in a hurry.The old lady is old and in poor health. Both the old man and the Duke of the State live in the front yard, so they had to report to the Shizi and the second wife.

Mrs. Liu and others quickly came to Cheng Guogong's foreign study. She had never been there before, but she heard about the approximate location and architectural features.

Several people stopped at the door, and one climbed up the wall with a ladder.After turning over, she opened the door again.

Mrs. Liu walked into the courtyard with light steps.

This is a three-in-one courtyard. There is a towering tree planted in the yard, and the leaves are blown off by the autumn wind from time to time.

Mrs. Liu stood down and looked at the small courtyard, and saw a faint light shining through the small window of the west room in the upper room.Listen carefully, there are also men's voices, and occasionally women's voices.

Liu seems to have gone back to a few years ago, every few days she would go to "catch rape", sometimes at home, sometimes outside.Hit it when you catch it...

She thought that those days were gone forever, but she didn't expect it to start again today.
