The salty fish lady just wants to get over the wall

Chapter 36: 036: Warm congratulations

Wen Ruchu said lightly: "Auntie, you are a bit too serious. The fourth sister, I and the third sister are real sisters, and they were all born to our mothers. We were brought up by our mothers, and the etiquette and upbringing were all taught by our mothers. It's mother's fault if you say that about fourth sister."

Wen Nianruan slightly raised his eyebrows, Wen Ruchu had been emphasizing that they were biological sisters, both born to Li Huachun, it sounded like they were trying to cover up something.

Wen Deyan realized that she had made a mistake just now, she patted her mouth lightly, and hurriedly said: "Look at my mouth, what nonsense are you talking about?" She looked at Li Huachun's cold face, and said with a flattering smile: "Just now I said something wrong, sister-in-law, don't take it to heart, for a dignified and decent person like sister-in-law, the etiquette education is naturally excellent."

Mrs. Wen glared at Wen Deyan, as if she was complaining about her talkativeness, and said angrily: "Ru Chuu is right, the three sisters were brought up by your sister-in-law, and your sister-in-law also educated them very well. The three of them grew up She is also obedient and well-behaved, but," she turned her eyes to glance at Wen Nianruan, and sneered, "It's just that Concubine Wen's wings are hardened now, and your sister-in-law is no longer qualified to discipline her."

The implication is that the former Wen Nianruan was really obedient under Li Huachun's education, but after entering the palace, he became arrogant.

The few people in the room couldn't believe it, how cowardly Wen Nianruan suddenly changed his temperament after half a year in the palace.

Could it be that the wings are really hard and you want to fly?

Mrs. Wen's mother and daughter flattered Li Huachun in every possible way, wishing they could be like a pug and lick Li Huachun.

Because the two of them knew that all the glory and wealth now depended on Li Huachun. Although Mrs. Wen was the elder of the Hou Mansion, Li Huachun was in charge of all the affairs in the mansion.

Mrs. Wen's behavior also depends on Li Huachun's face. Li Huachun's natal family and her queen mother's sister are things that a small Marquis cannot afford to offend.

Mrs. Wen had a son and a daughter under her knees. She was just a village woman in her early years. Her husband passed away early, and she became a widow herself. In the high gate compound of the imperial capital, there are servants around him to serve him, and he enjoys a lot of blessings.

Wen Deyan was also blessed, and married a magistrate of a prefecture by relying on the Hou's mansion. Although her husband's family official was small, she kept her well-fed and well-fed, and lived a prosperous life.

All these years, the mother and daughter have been looking up to Li Huachun and dare not offend her easily.

A woman took Wen Deyan's arm and said with a smile: "Mother, my aunt is well educated and reasonable, but she is not a small-minded person, so how can she blame you? Just like what my grandmother said, whether Concubine Wen is well-bred or not is none of my aunt's business."

This is Wen Deyan's daughter, named Shen Lingzhi. Although her temperament is not as noble as that of the women in the imperial capital, she is also a young lady with a delicate appearance.

She has not yet left the cabinet, and is a few months younger than Wen Ruochu, and she and Wen Deyan came here today to congratulate Wen Ruochu, also to rejoice.

The few people sang together, not paying attention to Wen Nianruan at all.

Only Aunt Jiang and Sixth Miss Wen Zhiyan stood aside and did not speak, perhaps because of their low status and could not get in the way. The mother and daughter could only stand aside and watch the excitement silently.

The maid poured Wen Nianruan a cup of hot tea, Wen Nianruan took a sip, but didn't swallow it, and spit it back into the teacup.

This tea really couldn't get into her mouth.

I'm used to drinking Yueyao Palace's tea, and my mouth is picky.

Mrs. Wen snorted with a dark face: "Concubine Wen has lived a good life in the palace, and she doesn't even look down on the tea in our Hou's mansion."

Wen Nianruan put down the teacup, wiped the corners of his mouth with a brocade handkerchief, and smiled slightly: "I really don't like it."

Li Huachun was fed up with her superior appearance, stood up and wanted to insult again, when Wen Ruochu finished her makeup and came out of the inner room, the joy that could not be hidden from the corners of her eyes and brows: "It's so lively, everyone is here what's the topic."

Wen Ruochu was wearing a bright red wedding gown, which was exquisite and gorgeous, with a gold hairpin on her head. Since she was marrying a royal prince, the workmanship of the wedding gown and the nobile was excellent.

The delicate makeup was painted on her face, which added a bit of beauty to Wen Ruochu, who was originally a beauty, and made her eyes shine.

Standing beside Aunt Jiang, Wen Zhiyan clenched the brocade handkerchief unconsciously, looking at Wen Ruochu with jealousy in his eyes.

Shen Lingzhi watched with envy, and praised: "Cousin Ruochu is so beautiful today."

"When my cousin gets married, she will be very beautiful."

Wen Ruochu responded with a smile, and when he saw Wen Nianruan sitting beside him, his complexion changed drastically, and the delicate makeup could hardly conceal the stiffness on his face.

Thinking of what happened in the palace last time, her anger is still hard to subside.

Wen Ruochu forced a smile, and took two steps forward: "I didn't expect that the fourth sister would really come to see me off to get married, but it flattered me as an older sister."

Wen Nianruan flicked down the hem of her skirt, stood up and smiled lightly: "Since it is the third sister's kind invitation, how can I not come?"

Not only did she come, but she also brought a big gift.

"Third Sister is getting married, and I also have the last congratulatory gift." Wen Nianruan turned to look at Qiu Bai, "Bring me the two congratulatory gifts that I gave to Third Sister and His Highness King Wen."

"Yes."

Qiu Bai put down Gun Gun in his arms, and led the pug forward. The dog also wore a huge big red flower around its neck, which was very festive.

Qiu Bai handed the dog leash to Wen Ruochu: "This is a pug carefully selected by my mother from hundreds of kennels, and it is a congratulatory gift to His Highness King Wen."

Wen Ruochu looked at the pug wagging its tail at her with astonishment.

All the people in the room also lost their eyes in shock, and gave a pug as a gift?
What does it mean?
"Wen Nianruan!" Li Huachun couldn't bear it anymore, and jumped up against the table: "You gave a dog as a gift, what's your intention?!"

"Mother, don't worry, this dog is so good. If the third sister gets bored after marrying into King Wen's mansion, this dog can help the third sister relieve her boredom, and can also help His Highness King Wen take care of the house. Why not do it."

After Wen Nianruan finished speaking, he said to Qiu Bai: "Bring out another gift for Third Sister."

Qiu Bai responded, took out a brocade box the size of a palm, opened it, and inside was a carved stone object.

Wen Ruochu looked at the round stone with lines and numbers engraved on it, wondering: "What is this?"

Wen Nianruan introduced earnestly: "This thing is called a 'watch,' but this palace tailor-made it for the third sister, and it is the only one in this world."

That's right, it's a modern watch for telling time.

Originally, Wen Nianruan planned to use a piece of jade to build it, but after thinking about it, it was a waste, so he picked up a random stone by the side of the road.

Wen Ruochu was dubious: "What is the use of this watch?"

"It's useless," because it can't walk, Wen Nian said softly, "but it has a good meaning when it is paired with this dog."

"What's the meaning?" Wen Ruochu couldn't help asking.

Wen Nian softly curled her lips: "A bitch deserves a dog forever."
