Chapter 16 Shield

After finishing breakfast with the princess and her mother-in-law, Xia Sichan bid farewell and returned to Hui Yuan.

When Hongyan saw her coming back, she stepped forward and said back and forth: "Miss, the mistress sent someone to bring the medicine."

When Xia Sichan heard it, Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out and was stunned.

"Delivering medicine?"

Why did mother bring medicine here?

I'm fine, and I'm not sick, so what medicine do I get?

Until she took the prescription from Hongyan, which stated the ingredients of the medicine and the method of decoction.She looked at some of the medicines, and suddenly recalled...

Cough!

It's all great medicine!
The little face was flushed, and she hurriedly asked Grandma Sun to put it away.

The sun was just right at this time, and Xia Sichan was about to order Xiaomei to move an armchair and put it under the eaves of the porch. When she was sitting and basking in the sun, she saw a nanny in her early fifties walking towards her.

"Young grandma."

Xia Sichan didn't realize that this was Mrs. Cao's personal Nanny Zhu until someone approached and saluted.

She nodded and asked, "Mother Zhu, what's the matter?"

Grandma Zhu responded, but there was no smile on her face: "Young Mistress, Madam, please go over."

Looking at this appearance, it seems that he has caused something to happen.

Xia Sichan was taken aback for a moment, she raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Mother, wait a moment, let me change my clothes."

Don't want to, but Nanny Zhu blocked her way, said: "Then there is no need, you can't ask the old lady to wait, the young lady should go directly with the old slave."

In other words, Xia Sichan is still the master no matter what, but in the minds of the servants of the Wei family, she is the kind who has no shame and used shameless means to marry her young master.Therefore, he didn't feel good about her in private.

In addition, their husband and son-in-law are not good enough, which makes them dislike them even more.

If Xia Sichan was not sure before, then Madam Zhu's attitude made her more sure of her guess.

It seems that staying in this family for a year is not so easy to mess with.

Thinking of this, the smile on Xia Sichan's face did not change, and said: "That's fine."

When she said this, she ordered her servant Ju to say: "Ask the kitchen to prepare lunch, and I'll come back as soon as I go." She then went to Rongxi Hall with Madam Zhu.

After entering the courtyard gate of Rongxi Hall, I saw the constant voices of people in the huge Rongxi Hall, and I could vaguely hear the old lady's scolding.

Xia Sichan has the experience of her previous life, so she can't go in rashly, she stops at the door, and Mammy Zhu goes in first to report back.

After a while, she came out again and said respectfully: "Young mistress, the old lady invites you in."

After receiving her words, Xia Sichan just nodded in response, and after thanking her, walked in through the curtain.

Xia Sichan went in and greeted the old lady first: "Greetings to grandma."

After saluting, he glanced at the people in the room again, and couldn't help lowering his eyes and pursing his lips: Tsk, this person is really complete.

This time, apart from a few elders who were not here, the girls from the second bedroom, third bedroom and aunt's house who were not out of the pavilion were all here.

Mrs. Cao, who was sitting high on the black rosewood grand teacher's chair, glanced at Xia Sichan, took a sip of the blue-sky-colored Ru porcelain tea cup and said, "Mr. Xia, how many do you bring to the spring banquet held by the British princess in the future?" Go little girl."

Xia Sichan replied obediently: "As far as grandma is concerned, as far as my granddaughter-in-law knows, the British lady-in-law's banquet this time is all girls who have not left the court, and grandson-in-law is already married, so it might be inappropriate to follow a group of young girls! "

There are three or four concubine children of the British government who are waiting to be married, so what's the point of joining a married one?

Besides, it was enough to suffer once in the previous life, and she will never take the initiative to seek stimulation in this life.

Hearing Xia Sichan's objection, the old lady snorted coldly, put the teacup on the small table, made a crisp sound of ice cracking, and said with a low face: "Why? My old lady's words don't work anymore?"

If the same scene hadn't happened again, Xia Sichan would have almost forgotten the embarrassing banquet in her previous life.

She remembered that going to the banquet was not only ridiculed by the gang of nobles and daughters, but of course they laughed at herself for throwing herself into her arms and marrying Wei Ziqian with a shy face.Cao Yanyan and Wei Xinrou, the eldest girl of the third room, joined forces with outsiders to plot her affairs.

At that time, I was so stupid, I didn’t dare to say anything when I was suffering outside, and I was punished by the old lady when I came back, so I went to the ancestral hall to copy the scriptures for a day...
Why!Just thinking about it is a bitter tear!
In this life, relying on oneself alone is not enough to be slighted by people's words. You have to invite the big Buddha, the princess's mother-in-law, as a shield.

Before Xia Sichan could say anything to explain, a little white lotus snatched away the words: "Ugh, cousin, you don't listen to what my aunt says, and it might hurt your reputation if it spreads!"

Needless to say, this little white lotus is Cao Yanyan.

Wei Xinrou also interjected at the right time: "Sister-in-law is very experienced in banquets, so why don't you take us to teach you the experience!"

As soon as this remark came out, "Pu Chi!" It caused Yan Xinhong and Yan Xinmei, the two daughters of Wei's aunt who came to Wei's house as guests this morning, to laugh.

When Xia Sichan heard the two of them singing together, she replied calmly, "Oh? Is that right? If you don't know which gentleman you like, ask someone to push you into his arms." Now, this marriage is over."

Hehe, you thought she was afraid of people mentioning the matter of 'throwing herself into her arms'?This girl's inner quality is strong now, and her face is built like a fortress, so don't any of you want to take the opportunity to humiliate and laugh at me!
Hey!When the old lady heard this, she was furious again, and with a "snap!", she slapped the hard red sandalwood armrest with her palm: "Presumptuous! What are you talking about?"

Hey!
Seeing that her well-maintained palms turned red, Xia Sichan really hurt her palms!

However, I still have to be low-key, and hurriedly bowed and explained: "Back to grandma, when the granddaughter-in-law greeted her mother-in-law in the morning, the mother-in-law made an appointment with the granddaughter-in-law to accompany her to the jewelry shop on the street to pick out jewelry the day after tomorrow, and said it was a gift." A gift for Princess Cong's birthday banquet."

Xia Sichan knew that next month would be Queen Cong's birthday banquet.

"Huh? Really? What a coincidence!" The old lady frowned and said, "Forget it."

No matter how powerful Mrs. Cao is, she can't surpass Princess Cong!
Tsk, it's better to use the mother-in-law as a shield!

Unexpectedly, Cao Yanyan, who was as thick-skinned as a city wall, suggested with a shy face: "Biao sister-in-law, tell my aunt to postpone the shopping day. Anyway, Princess Li Cong's birthday banquet is much better." day."

Ho, ho ho!

Her face is really big!

Xia Sichan pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Cousin said yes, otherwise, please tell my mother-in-law for me, and say that I am going to the British government for a banquet, and let her pick out gifts for Princess Cong later. Just push."

"Pu Chi!" There was an invisible chuckle, and Xia Sichan could tell from the direction that the sound came from Wei Xinjin, the eldest daughter of the second wife.

 Xia Sichan: I never thought that using mother-in-law as a shield would really work!
  If I knew this earlier, I wouldn't have to suffer so many grievances in my previous life!
