cabinet first lady

Chapter 19 Evening
When Ruan Muyang arrived at the old lady's yard, he heard Ji's complaining. "Mother, you didn't see the palm mark on An Yu's face, it's very clear. I don't know how she could hit such a heavy hand. The second master and I have only one child. My mother feels distressed .”

"Grandmother, Second Aunt." Ruan Muyang walked steadily.

Ji Shi gave her a hard look, and said in a mean tone: "After all, she is the lady of the Minister's Mansion, and she still looks a little bit airy."

Ruan Muyang was not angry, and said calmly: "Muyang came to plead guilty to my grandmother and second aunt today. The incident happened suddenly that day, and Fusheng came to me and knew that the fourth brother injured was Master Zhu, the imperial censor of the right capital. Son, you are in a panic, so you can only do something wrong, please forgive me, grandma and second aunt."

Of course, these words can't move Ji Shi.She sneered and said, "It's not that you beat the prince and grandson, and An Yu was also injured. It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong, but you beat your own people first—"

"Okay." The old lady interrupted Ji Shi, looked at Ruan Muyang, seemed to be sizing her up, and said, "You did a good job on this matter."

Ruan Muyang was flattered, smiled and said: "It's good that grandma doesn't blame her." It seems that the old lady is a person who can distinguish right from wrong.

Ji Shi didn't expect that the old lady not only didn't blame her, but also praised her, and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Mother!"

Seeing that Mrs. Ji still refused to give up, the old lady said impatiently: "What do you know? Although Master Zhu is not a first-rank official, let alone a relative of the emperor, he is a censor and a speech officer! Who should change this matter?" Maybe it won't be handled as well as her." After speaking, she glanced at Ruan Muyang, only to see that she was standing quietly, looking at her nose, nose, nose and heart, not complacent, but satisfied in her heart.

The old lady used to be the wife of the Shangshu, she experienced many ups and downs with the old Shangshu, and she has an aura of power without anger.Ji Shi didn't dare to say anything more, but she was still upset.

"Why is it so lively here, grandma?"

Suddenly a lazy voice came from outside the door, Ruan Muyang raised his head, and saw Zhang Anyu walking in slowly, his tone was like a dandy in the capital.Several days passed, and the palm marks on his face had almost disappeared, only the light marks left by the fight on his forehead were still obvious.

Sensing Ruan Muyang's gaze, Zhang Anyu looked over, squinted her eyes, and said, "What a coincidence, the second sister-in-law is also here."

Ruan Muyang nodded to him, and called "fourth brother".

"An Yu, go and let your grandmother see your face." Ji's distress was not fake.

Zhang Anyu walked up to the old lady and said with a smile: "The grandson came as soon as he heard that grandma was back. How is grandma doing in Pinghai Temple these days?"

He put away that casual look and smiled very flatteringly.A smile appeared on the old lady's serious face and said: "I know you are the most filial. You can see marks on this face carefully, and on this forehead, does it still hurt?"

Ji Shi said from the side: "How can such a deep mark not hurt?"

Looking at the palm prints on this face, we can see how hard the beating was.It was good that I didn't see it at first, but now that I saw it, the old lady felt distressed, and she also blamed Ruan Muyang for being serious.She looked at Ruan Muyang with some dissatisfaction in her eyes.

"It's just scary to look at, but it doesn't actually hurt." At this point, Zhang Anyu looked at Ruan Muyang, and said mockingly, "Look at the honest appearance of the second sister-in-law, how can she have so much strength?"

Ruan Muyang couldn't help raising his eyes.There are elders here and it's starting to be rampant?That day Mingming saw that he was beaten in a daze.

Hearing what Zhang Anyu said, the old lady felt relieved, and then said with a bit of sternness in her tone: "If it wasn't for your second sister-in-law, your grandfather would have forced family law against you. Don't mess around like this again in the future."

"Grandson knows." Zhang Anyu nodded with a smile.

After coming out of the old lady's courtyard, Ruan Muyang heaved a sigh of relief, he did not expect to pass the test so easily today.

Hearing footsteps behind her, she turned her head and saw Zhang Anyu walking out lazily.

"Second sister-in-law, you helped me before, and today I helped you at my grandmother's place, so we are even." Speaking of this, Zhang Anyu felt that something was wrong.Obviously the one who is at fault is still himself.

Looking at Zhang Anyu, who looked somewhat similar to Zhang Anyi but had a completely different temperament, Ruan Muyang felt kind and his mood improved involuntarily.A smile welled up in her eyes, and her tone was warm, but she couldn't help but want to tease him: "Why didn't I know that fourth brother came to help me today?"

Zhang Anyu didn't expect Ruan Muyang to deny it, and became angry.

Ruan Muyang's beating of Zhang Anyu caused a lot of commotion in the Zhang family, but it subsided quickly.

Being on the cusp of the crisis, Ruan Muyang counted green bamboos in Chuanyun Courtyard peacefully every day without going out, but he could still feel that the servants of the Zhang family looked at her differently.

After all, she was the woman who dared to beat the Fourth Young Master.

Half a month later, Ruan Muyang went to greet the old lady.

Seeing her, Mrs. Wang praised her, although the smile on her face was a little fake.And Ruan Muyang's second aunt, Ji Shi, never gave her a good face, it seems that she has a grudge for her beating her son.

It was the old lady's attitude that surprised her.

"Mu Yang, you just got married, don't stay in Chuanyun Court all day, go out and walk around more, get acquainted with your sister-in-law and younger siblings." The old lady's tone was still the same as usual, not very warm.She came from a famous family, and she was dignified and stable in her bones. Even though she was old and no longer in charge of the family, she still had the demeanor of being the head of the house.

Ruan Muyang nodded and said, "Grandmother is right."

"The Chuanyun Courtyard is pretty much taken care of. You are Ruan Shilang's daughter-in-law, and you should have learned how to run the house at home. Your sister-in-law has been in the Zhang family for so long, and the burden on her is not light. You should share it for her."
