Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 149 Falling into the Trick of an Old Woman

In the morning, Chrysanthemum Garden.The chrysanthemums were in full bloom, but Lin Mengyao didn't care to appreciate the autumn chrysanthemums in the garden.

Lying lazily on the bed, the half-embroidered Die Lianwu was put aside, staring at the coldly glowing embroidery needle, wishing that the needle could pierce the eyes of that old woman, Liu Yuejiao, who was so proud of being favored inside.

At this moment, Juan'er walked in slowly, went to the couch and said after slightly blessing her: "Ma'am, Aunt Liu is here to say hello."

Hearing this, Lin Mengyao opened her bright eyes and said coldly: "Let her wait in the front hall, saying that Mrs. Ben is changing clothes in the morning bath."

"Yes, ma'am." Juan'er took the order to retreat, and Lin Mengyao raised her lips slightly, thinking in her heart, even if you have been favored recently, so what, if I told you to wait, you have to wait obediently.

In the front hall, Liu Yuejiao was sitting on a pear-blossom wooden chair, and the maid beside her was holding a beautifully carved brocade box, standing upright.

Liu Yuejiao's complexion was rosy, and she had been well moisturized for a while.She looks very happy today. She is wearing a five-color brocade and gold embroidered satin skirt, combed into a wishful high bun, paired with a pair of coiled silk gold hairpins, and thin red gold flower tassels hanging from the back.

As soon as Juan'er arrived at the front hall, she said softly, "My servant has seen Aunt Liu, Madam is changing clothes in the morning bath, please wait a moment for Aunt Liu."

After Liu Yuejiao heard this, she didn't change her expression as before, she gritted her teeth, but smiled coldly, and said softly, "Since Mrs. Ningmeng is taking a bath and changing clothes, Yuejiao should wait for a while." .”

He said so on the lips, but in his heart he cursed Lin Mengyao viciously a hundred times.If you dare to put on airs in front of my old lady, I'll see how long you can be good. Sooner or later your position will be mine.

After half an hour, Lin Mengyao slowly came out of the back hall with a scent all over her body. Seeing Liu Yuejiao's attire, she was furious.

A while ago, Xie Chongguang rewarded Liu Yuejiao with many things, including the gold hairpin and tassels she was wearing on her head. What was even more annoying was that he planned to embroider a five-color brocade plate and gold embroidered satin skirt by himself, but it happened to be Liu Yuejiao, an old woman, begged Xie Chongguang for a reward.

Liu Yuejiao then got up to greet her, but her tone was not very respectful: "Mrs. Ningmeng is different. Yuejiao really admires her for taking such a graceful bath this early in the morning."

"My sister doesn't know that sister Yuejiao will come at this hour. I have neglected my sister. Just don't worry about it." Lin Mengyao sat on the main seat. Put on the tea.

"Juan'er, quickly serve tea to Sister Yuejiao, Sister Yuejiao must be thirsty after sitting for so long."

"Mrs. Xie, how dare Yuejiao." Liu Yuejiao snorted coldly, but took the brocade box from the servant girl's hand with a smile in the blink of an eye, opened it and handed it to Lin Mengyao, "Yuejiao got up to make this before dawn. Although there are no expensive ingredients in the dim sum, it is Yuejiao's wish, and I want to bring it to Madam to taste, Madam Ningmeng, please don't dislike it."

Hearing what Liu Yuejiao said, the more Lin Mengyao looked at the snacks in the brocade box, the more disgusted she felt, and she couldn't help showing disgust.

"Sister Yuejiao, let's take it home and try it for myself. Sister, I feel sick and feel tight when I see this snack. Maybe it's because I was too tired yesterday." The implication is that I look down on this box of snacks.

But Liu Yuejiao took a step forward without getting angry, her eyes flashed brightly, and she said with a smile: "Madam is tired, maybe it's because I haven't rested enough to make the wedding dress before the wedding?"

Although it was a rhetorical question, every word and sentence was extremely harsh.Lin Mengyao thought of her big wedding more than a month ago, and the wedding dress with red strips, and felt angry.This Liu Yuejiao made it clear today that she came to Juyuan to be presumptuous.

Dare to act wild on my territory, this is not your Liuxu Pavilion.

"My sister's wedding dress took a lot of thought. Unfortunately, I still couldn't wear the wedding dress my sister sent me. Otherwise, the Prime Minister's Mansion would become a laughing stock in the capital."

"What is Ma'am talking about? Yuejiao has clarified to the master after that day that it was still a good wedding dress when she sent it over, but I don't know which maid who is not long-eyed wanted to ruin our sisterhood, and intentionally took advantage of it." Make tricks."

Hearing this, Lin Mengyao laughed coldly, it's fine if Liu Yuejiao didn't say anything, but when she said that, she thought of the three days of sleepless and desperate embroidery.A merchant woman who was born as a small businessman, she thought she could do whatever she wanted with a little bit of strategy, and she didn't even look at who I was, Lin Mengyao.

"Hmph, you shameless woman, do you think that now that the prime minister spoils you, you can act wild in front of me? I don't even look at what kind of bastard you are."

"How did Madam say this? Yuejiao just wanted to make some snacks for Madam, and she had no other intentions. Since Madam doesn't like the snacks, just tell Yuejiao. After all, Yuejiao has stayed in the prime minister's mansion for more than ten years. In [-], except for the old lady, no one can make me treat you like this." Liu Yuejiao seemed to be polite, but everyone could gather her heart.

"Hehe, don't be so hypocritical, I don't know who you Liu Yuejiao are, and this dim sum..." Lin Mengyao stared fiercely at the dim sum. At this moment, her beautiful face was already trembling with anger. Sweeping the brocade box to the ground with a flick of his hand, he said coldly, "Let you eat it by yourself."

"Ah!" Liu Yuejiao took a step back, but intentionally threw the brocade box forward, with a "bang", some of the snacks still splashed onto Lin Mengyao's skirt.

"Ah, Yuejiao didn't mean to stain the lady's skirt with the snacks, how about I wipe it for you." After Liu Yuejiao finished speaking, she took out her handkerchief regardless of her identity, and pretended to squat down.When Lin Mengyao got angry, she thought that she was the second lady of the general's mansion, and she was also a fourth-rank wife, and she was angry with this old woman, so she pushed her away.

"My wife doesn't need you to wipe it." Lin Mengyao said with disgust.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yuejiao fell to the ground just like the brocade box just now, Lin Mengyao was shocked, although she pushed hard, but Liu Yuejiao is not a weak woman.Suddenly seeing a shadow appearing in front of the door, she looked up and saw Xie Chongguang furious at the door.

Lin Mengyao is also a smart person. Seeing Xie Chongguang's coming to the Juyuan by such a coincidence, and seeing this scene even more coincidentally, she immediately felt that there was something strange in it, and then recalling Liu Yuejiao's actions just now, she became more sure of what she had in mind. Thinking about it, I secretly fell into the trick of this old woman.

"Madam... How did Yuejiao offend Madam? Madam treats Yuejiao like this. Yuejiao just wants to help..." Xie Chongguang entered the room with a sullen face, and helped Liu Yuejiao up. Liu Yuejiao looked bullied. The appearance caused Xie Chongguang to pity him for a while.

"Master, you have to be the master of my concubine..."

"Alright, come on, let's see if there is any injury..." After finishing speaking, she did not forget to wipe Liu Yuejiao's dirty skirt.

After comforting Liu Yuejiao, Xie Chongguang couldn't help being annoyed, and scolded Lin Mengyao loudly.

"You are too self-willed. Yuejiao came to greet you with good intentions, and even specially made some snacks. She wanted to invite me to have a taste, but she was treated like this by you."

"I...I..." Lin Mengyao felt aggrieved suddenly, and tears fell down as if she didn't want money.

"Now you are no longer a young lady, but a fourth-rank madam bestowed by the emperor. Everyone is watching you, how can you act like this?"

"Master, I, I told Sister Yuejiao that I don't like this dessert. I'm a little tired these days, I can't sleep well, and I don't have much appetite. It's just that I don't know it. In this panic, I actually... ..."

Lin Mengyao hated it in her heart, seeing Liu Yuejiao's smug face, she wished she could slap her a few times.But now she has to be so embarrassed in front of her, this debt must be doubled by her.

"My concubine was also confused just now, that's why...that's why... Sister Yuejiao, don't care about my sister's unintentional actions just now, or else my sister, my sister really..."

Xie Chongguang saw Lin Mengyao's face full of pear blossoms and tears, and he couldn't help but soften his heart. After all, this Mengyao is still a little girl. She has a prejudice against Yuejiao, just persuasion.

"Okay, okay, if you want to come to Yuejiao, you won't care about these things. I didn't mean to blame you, but now that you have a different status, it's inevitable that you can't help yourself. You can't offend this little girl again." Wipe away the tears still hanging in the corner of his eyes.

Seeing this scene, Liu Yuejiao was furious, thinking that she had been planning for so long, and finally figured out the time to arrange this farce, but she never expected that Lin Mengyao, a woman like her, would run away after acting like a spoiled child. Yes, but it doesn't matter, there will be opportunities in the future...

"The concubine knows, and I will never disappoint Sister Yuejiao's kindness in the future." After speaking, he took advantage of the situation and hid in Xie Chongguang's arms, "Master's behavior just now really scares the concubine."

"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore." After speaking, he looked around and snorted coldly.

"What happened in the chrysanthemum garden today, don't make it public, you know!" Xie Chongguang ordered to his servants.

"Yes!" All the maids present quickly knelt down and responded.

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to say a few words of comfort, and did not leave until Lin Mengyao stopped crying.Seeing this scene, Liu Yuejiao had no choice but to leave, unwilling to take another look at Lin Mengyao.

At this time, the Qishang Pavilion was peaceful and harmonious, and Xie Wanqing's drowsiness had greatly improved recently, so Su Wen was not as worried as she was a while ago, but was drying the herbs for the winter in the yard.

Xie Wanqing sat under the window sill, rubbing the small brocade box carefully. She really liked the cold and comfortable texture, and there was a thousand-year-old ice silkworm sleeping inside.

"Miss, it's starting to get cold. Although it's warm in autumn, Miss is thin, so I'd better go get some sleep." Su Wen returned to the house after drying the herbs, and took a beautiful cloak to cover Xie Wanqing.

Xie Wanqing smiled, tightened her cloak, but said nothing.Go back to the room and put the little brocade box back into the bottom of the jewelry box.

"By the way, where did Lingshu go to play this early in the morning?" Xie Wanqing picked up a book and flipped through it, not forgetting to ask about Lingshu who hadn't seen anyone in the early morning.

"This servant doesn't know, Lingshu is just too lively." Su Wen replied.

As soon as the words stopped, I heard the voice of Lingshu coming from the door.

"Miss, miss, there's trouble!" Lingshu ran into the house, Su Wen gave her an eye, and shook his head.

"Lingshu, speak well."

"Miss, a big event happened in Juyuan today. Mrs. Ningmeng pushed Aunt Liu down." Lingshu couldn't wait to speak as soon as he arrived in front of Xie Wanqing.

Hearing that it was about the chrysanthemum garden, Xie Wanqing put down the book and said calmly, "Tell me exactly what happened in the chrysanthemum garden today."

"Well, the thing is like this. I passed by Juyuan this morning, and I just heard a maid in Juyuan talking, saying that Aunt Liu had been sitting in the front hall of Juyuan for almost half an hour. I felt something was wrong when I heard it , and then I went in to have a look..." Lingshu completely described what he saw today, and did not forget to increase his movements.

After listening to Lingshu's words, Xie Wanqing subconsciously rubbed the green finger on her thumb, frowned slightly, thinking that Liu Yuejiao finally couldn't stand it...
