Chapter 451
break off an engagement?Qing Dai's eyes darkened slightly, she looked at Zhuo Nan and said respectfully: "Miss, no matter what Madam Jing's purpose is, the first time your future mother-in-law sends you an invitation, you must go.

Otherwise, if it gets out, what will outsiders say?
Even if you don't care, miss, if it reaches Mr. Jing's ears, it will be very bad for you if other villains deliberately instigate it. "

Zhuo Nan smiled slightly and said: "So, Miss Ben must go?" Leaning at Qing Dai, she said, "Go to the warehouse to pick out some gifts, and bring me into Jingfu tomorrow to meet my future mother-in-law. "

She would not foolishly think that, with her notoriety, the other party sincerely invited her to stay in the house to cultivate some future relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

She wanted to see how Mrs. Jing could force her to withdraw the engagement while Jing Huli was away.

With Jing's foxy and ghostly temperament, Mrs. Jing would definitely not dare to propose a divorce privately, so she had to start with her.

Seeing the wicked smile on Zhuo Nan's mouth, Qing Dai felt apprehensive in her heart, she lowered her head and went to the storeroom to carefully select suitable gifts.

Qian Momo looked at Zhuo Nan and said, "Miss, since you are going to visit the Jing Mansion tomorrow, this old slave should go and report to Madam first?"

When Li Shi was mentioned, Zhuo Nan remembered that before Li Shi was seriously injured by the prime minister, she was grounded.She cast a sideways glance at Qian Momo and said, "Go."

Qian Momo took the order and left.

Half an hour later, Qian Momo not only came back, but also entered the house with two maids holding a bunch of gifts in their arms.

Zhuo Nan was drinking tea, he raised his eyelids and glanced at Qian Momo and others who entered the room, and continued to drink tea calmly.

Qian Momo stepped forward with a bitter face and said: "Miss, Madam and Master heard that you are going to visit Mrs. Jing at the Jing Mansion tomorrow, and specially selected a suitable gift from the storeroom for the old slave to bring back. I hope you will bring it together tomorrow. Go there." She really couldn't understand what the master and madam were thinking.For a while it is extremely disgusting, and for a while it is flattering.

Zhuo Nan glanced indifferently at the two maids behind Qian Momo, and saw that the brocade boxes they held in their arms were so piled up that they even covered their faces.

Don't reject the things delivered to your door, and said in a casual tone: "Put it down."

When Mammy Qian heard this, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Lian Dong, Bai Wei and the others immediately stepped forward to take the brocade boxes from the arms of the two maids and piled them on the table.

Qian Momo rewarded the two maids and watched them leave.

Zhuo Nan instructed Qing Dai: "Put back the gifts that were selected from the storeroom earlier." Standing up, he pointed to the brocade box on the table and said, "As for the selected half of these gifts, put them into the storeroom, and keep the other half to take away tomorrow. It’s enough for the Jingfu to pay a visit.”

Everyone: "..." Miss, this is a sugar cock!Even more powerful than an iron rooster, he earned a penny!
Qian Momo couldn't help but said, "Miss, is this not very good?"

Zhuo Nan glanced sharply.

Qian Momo lowered her head and kept silent, but walked to the table and opened the brocade box actively, and began to choose gifts that were more suitable for taking to Jingfu.

The next day, Zhuo Nan took Qingdai and Qingshang to go out of the house after breakfast, but Nanny Qian was worried that Zhuo Nan's temper would conflict with her future mother-in-law before she got married, so she insisted on following.

Zhuo Nan squinted at Qian Momo who was always thinking about her, and said casually, "Follow if you want."

Qian Momo happily followed immediately.

After leaving the prime minister's mansion, he took a carriage to Jing's mansion.

The road was full of snow and it was difficult to walk, Zhuo Nan allowed Qing Shang and others to get into the carriage.

Two quarters of an hour later, they came to the gate of Jing Mansion.

Qian Momo was the first to get out of the car and knock on the door. After seeing the doorkeeper opened the door, she handed over the invitation card.

Zhuo Nan sat in the carriage without moving.

The servant took a few glances at the invitation, and only after confirming that it was correct did he open the door completely.

Qian Momo walked back and forth to the side of the carriage. "Miss, you can get out of the car."

Zhuo Nan then stepped on the driver's back, supported Qing Dai's hand and slowly got off the carriage.

Qian Momo looked at Zhuo Nan and asked, "Miss, do you want to take the gift together now?"

A sly smile appeared on the corner of Zhuo Nan's mouth and said, "Maybe...it won't be needed."

Nanny Qian: "...?"

Zhuo Nan stepped on the steps and stepped into the Jing Mansion, the gatekeeper closed the gate and led the way.

When passing by a fork in the road, Zhuo Nan glanced across the east courtyard and thought of Jing Rong.Without stopping, he followed the boy who led the way and went straight to the north courtyard.

The boy who led the way directly led Zhuo Nan and others into the flower hall for the guests, and ordered the servant girl to report to the master and the old lady, and then watched Zhuo Nan silently begging for a reward.

Nanny Qian wrapped the broken silver she had prepared in an ordinary red handkerchief and handed it over.

The boy took the reward and left with gratitude to continue guarding the gate.

Zhuo Nan sat on a chair and looked at the decoration of the entire flower hall, which was similar to that of ordinary rich merchants.

Qingdai and Qingshang stood behind Zhuo Nan, one on the left and the other behind.

Only Nanny Qian stood near the entrance of the flower hall, her expression serious and somewhat displeased.

The boy who led the way left, and the maid who went to report never came back.

Only their master and servant were left in the huge flower hall.

No one serves tea and snacks, making people wait dryly, which is obviously impolite and intentionally insults others.

The little servant girl who delivered the message entered Qiushui Garden, looked at Qiu Shi and said back: "Madam, Ms. Zhuo Nan from the Prime Minister's Mansion is already waiting in the flower hall."

The maid at the side, Xiao Ani, looked at Qiu Shi flatteringly and said: "Madam, you were worried that she would not come, but you see that she has come obediently. Even if she turns into a phoenix and becomes the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, so what?"

Qiu Shi glanced at Xiao Hui, the servant girl who served her, with a haughty smile on her face.The little maid, who was staring at the conversation, ordered: "Tell her, Mrs. Ben is entertaining other guests, let her wait in the flower hall."

"Yes." The little maid saluted and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute." Xiao Ani called out to stop the little girl, looked at Qiu Shi and said, "Ma'am, please forgive me for talking too much. This Miss Nan has a very bad temper, you let her wait in the flower hall for a long time, and I will worry about it for a long time She will leave angrily."

"She dares!" Qiu shouted angrily.

Xiao An watched her words and waited until Qiu's anger was over, motioned herself to continue, and then said: "According to my servant's opinion, tea will be served in fifteen minutes, and snacks will be served in two quarters of an hour, so as to delay her time. When she really doesn't want to When you are about to leave impatiently, Madam, you will show up again."

Qiu Shi glanced at Xiao Anis in satisfaction, and nodded.

The little maid who was passing the message heard their conversation clearly, and left when she saw Xiao An waved her hand to signal her to back off.

The little girl returned to the flower hall the same way, saluted Zhuo Nan and said, "Miss, my wife is entertaining other guests, so I can only ask you to wait for a while." After speaking, she quickly retreated and guarded the corridor outside the gate of the flower hall.

What did Qian Momo not understand when she saw the little maid's reply and her actions?Immediately regretted admonishing Zhuo Nan to accept the invitation and come over.

Going forward, she said to Zhuo Nan with a guilty face: "Miss, you are the daughter of the prime minister's mansion. It is the fault of Mrs. Jing who treats you so slowly. I shouldn't have been blind to speak for her yesterday. Let's go back to the mansion." .”

If Zhuo Nan was wronged, it would be like losing the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Mrs. Jing is so courageous, she dares to be so slow and harsh before she is married!
