first princess

Chapter 178 Husband and wife talk heart-to-heart (3)
Seeing the tears in Dong Jialin's eyes, Feng Yanying immediately became alert and began to touch Dong Jialin's arms and legs. When she touched her knees, she heard Dong Jialin gasp. The knee was bruised and purple, and there was a thick scab of blood. She just touched it casually, and a lot of blood overflowed: "Didn't you ask the doctor to take a look?" in a tone almost roaring!

Xing'er, who brought the tea, put the cup on the table and then knelt down: "Second young mistress, you have to make decisions for my aunt! This matter really has nothing to do with my aunt. Then he instructed the servant girl to slander my aunt as a murderer! The second wife made my aunt kneel outside in a rage, and my aunt knelt on the cold ground for most of the night, and the second young lady woke up and didn’t tell her to get up!"

"Shut up! What nonsense are you talking about?" Dong Jialin sternly stopped Xing'er.Feng Yanying's lungs were about to explode, "Qiao Hui really treats you like this?"

In fact, when Dong Jialin entered the room, Qiao Hui had already passed out. Whether Xiu'er slandered her on her own initiative, or was instructed by Qiao Hui before she fell into a coma, Dong Jialin was not entirely sure.As for the news that Qiao Hui woke up after she knelt for most of the night, Dong Jialin couldn't be sure whether Qiao Hui had deliberately delayed for so long.It's just that people are subjective and tend to think bad things, so Myolie's complaint has always been Dong Jialin's inner guess.But unlike Xing'er, although she thought the worst, she was unwilling to cause trouble for her cousin.

Dong Jialin shook her head, and said nonchalantly, "Don't listen to her nonsense. Qiao Hui was already unconscious when I entered the room. It was Xiu'er who was eager to protect the Lord, so she spoke freely." It's actually a line of truth.

Feng Yanying looked at her slightly lowered eyes: "Don't be afraid to cause trouble for me, the most I can do is to talk to your mother-in-law, at least let her ask a doctor to take a look at it for you! If you continue like this, your legs will suffer from stubborn diseases Already!"

Dong Jialin raised the corners of her lips slightly, and nodded: "I'm telling the truth. If Qiao Hui really wanted to torment me, she wouldn't bother me in the middle of the night and let me kneel until dawn. Didn't she do that?" Flickering and flickering, she gradually felt that this was indeed the case. Anyway, it wasn't Qiao Hui who punished her to kneel. Qiao Hui really wanted to punish her. No one would suspect anything if she pretended to sleep until dawn!Maybe, I really misunderstood Qiao Hui all along.

Feng Yanying is the first wife, so she naturally understands that there are endless ways for the first wife to control the aunt's house, and most of them are hard to tell. It's just that she is timid and rarely uses cruel hands: "You! Tell me what to say about you ? Do you regret it now?" Regret did not regret taking the medicine, but Feng Yanying, who asked this question, regretted it a little.

Dong Jialin didn't care much and said: "Live life, there are always bumps and bumps, how can it be smooth sailing? After I figure out the twists and turns of the palace, and also figure out the temperament of Qiao Hui and the second lady, the days to come will be easier. Don't worry about me!"

Feng Yanying took a deep look at her, feeling unconvinced: "No matter what, the doctor will always invite you, and you are not a concubine bought by King An for three taels of silver! You have a dowry and a companion, you are serious. A noble concubine of the classics can also be called a grandma by others, how could she end up being sick but not even a doctor? It's shameful! I'll go find the second lady right away!"

"Cousin!" When Feng Yanying got up, Dong Jialin held her down, "It's really all right! I have applied medicine! I've been recuperating in the house all day long, and I'm almost ready! Don't bother asking me, Tell me about Brother Tong and Brother Zhi, I miss them all the time, has Brother Zhi asked for a wife? He's more than three years old!"

Feng Yanying sighed helplessly: "You!"

Dong Jialin smiled shyly and said, "Where's my elder brother? How is his palace exam this time?"

Speaking of A Jue, Feng Yanying's face became a little more joyful: "I feel pretty good about myself, I just wait for the rankings to be released in a few days to see what ranking I can get. In fact, it doesn't matter what the result is. It's his first time in the scientific examination. , being able to become a member of the Huiyuan all the way, has already left those self-proclaimed nobles two blocks away! It is better to be able to jump up, and you can’t make a comeback three years later!”

After hearing this, Dong Jialin showed the brightest smile these days.

"What's this called? Sweet and sour and fruit?" The third princess asked curiously after eating the sweets in her hand.

In the warm pavilion of Moheyuan, four girls gathered around a small round table, slowly eating all kinds of desserts made by Shui Linglong. Shui Linglong just finished eating, wiped her mouth, and looked at the third princess with a smile Said: "The princess ate strawberry pudding."

"I've never heard of it. What you cook is even more delicious than the cooks in the imperial dining room! I'll let my father reward you!" After speaking naturally, she seemed to realize that her words were wrong. The third princess smiled embarrassingly, "I mean, thank you so much!"

I think there are only two kinds of people in the world: masters or slaves, the monarch is the master, and the subjects are all slaves, a typical princess disease!
Qiao Hui said gently, "Sister-in-law, what's the name of what I eat?" It seemed that cow's milk was thicker than cow's milk, and red beans were added, anyway, it was very refreshing.

Zhi Fan and Ye Mao offered warm water to the masters, and Shui Linglong smiled and said: "Red bean double skin milk, nourishing qi and blood, beautifying and nourishing the skin, and nest egg double skin milk, not so sweet, but the nutritional value is excellent, do you like it?" If so, I will make it for you next time."

Qiao Hui said regretfully, "I told you not to go into the kitchen."

Shui Linglong drank some warm water, and sighed comfortably: "I made it in the warm pavilion, and didn't go into the kitchen."

The third princess was drooling with envy, this is her decent mother-in-law!She should live with Shui Linglong!greedy…

Yan Zhen blinked her eyes, revealing a gorgeous smile, and the whole room was bright and charming: "Shi Zifei is really good at craftsmanship, can I ask you to be my teacher? I will be a very good student!"

Shui Linglong said, "I don't like taking apprentices."

Yan Zhen choked, and her smile froze at the corner of her lips.

Several people chatted wildly for a while, the third princess took Shui Linglong's arm, as if she had something to say in a whisper, Qiao Hui invited Yan Zhen to go back to the lake to listen to the play.When they left, the third princess said with a playful smile, "Can you do more, and I'll take one back for Guo Yan?"

Shui Linglong drank the warm water in the cup little by little, and said in a normal tone: "If you want to please Guo Yan, you have to work hard!"

The third princess bit her lips, evildoer, evildoer, how did she know that she wanted to borrow flowers to offer Buddha?well!It's not that she doesn't work hard, but Guo Yan doesn't look at her at all, and she used tricks to spread the word that she doesn't laugh at others in the two consecutive intercourses?

Shui Linglong looked at the helpless third princess, and felt that she had to give her some advice: "Look at how Mrs. Guo treats Guo Yan, and you treat Guo Yan the same way. After a long time, Guo Yan will gradually accept it. Yours." Gentle as a mother, this hint should be obvious.

The third princess said "Oh" half-understood, then she thought of something, and smiled with eyebrows crooked: "Can you tell me about the past life? How old was I when I gave birth to Guo Yan's child?"

You weren't born, you had a miscarriage...

"Aren't Guo Yan and I very happy and loving in the back?"

Guo Yan died in battle, and you married Hu Guo and was abused to death...

"And my elder brother! When did he ascend the throne?"

He avenged your expedition to the East, and died on the way...

Shui Linglong raised her forehead, and quickly changed the subject: "Okay, the secret must not be leaked, otherwise it will affect the fortune of this life. In short, it is right for you and Guo Yan to be happy in this life."

Soon it was time for lunch, and everyone went to Tian'anju to eat together. The old lady was lucky and won a lot of money, Mrs. Yan was also lucky, Mrs. Zhen was even, neither lost nor won, and Mrs. Yao lost badly. He patted his forehead and said: "Hey, look, look, look! You are so lucky, you almost lost me to the northwest wind!"

Mrs. Yan joked: "It's the princess's birthday today, Mrs. Wang!"

"Then who made you rich?" Mrs. Yao turned around and teased her.

The old matriarch was overjoyed and laughed loudly: "Master Yan was transferred back to the capital, he must be going to a higher level, why is the Yan family not prosperous?"

At this time, people who went to the theater and people who ate delicious food came in one after another. Mrs. Yan saw her daughter at a glance, and said with a smile: "Who else is more prosperous than Zhen'er?" The smile was a bit difficult to distinguish.

Yan Zhen smiled slightly, her bright eyes were kind: "Mother, what are you talking about?"

"It's nothing to talk about playing cards! Come in!" Mrs. Yan smiled and took her daughter's hand, and said to Leng Youru modestly, "This child is still as naughty as he was when he was a child. Is it with you?"

Leng Youru maintained her usual cold smile: "It's good, some of their children went to my daughter-in-law's yard on the way, and I don't know if they had a good time or not."

Shui Linglong walked in hand in hand with the three princesses: "Miss Yan is gentle and demure, so why make a fuss? I am too lazy to be Miss Yan's wife, no wonder Miss Yan."

Yan Zhen quickly walked to Leng Youru's side, said with a smile on her face: "Princess, you can do me a favor, I come to see you every day, if it happens that the princess has time to teach me, I will learn, if not , how about I run errands for you?"

"What are you studying?" the old lady asked.

"Culinary skills." Qiao Hui replied respectfully.

This is a bit of trouble, the old matriarch intends to help Shui Linglong refuse, the third princess stepped forward and said unceremoniously: "I will send you two royal chefs tomorrow, you are welcome!"

Yan Zhen was really stunned this time, but she had to salute and said: "No need, I won't study anymore."

The small episodes of the juniors did not affect the overall atmosphere. The food was served on the table, and everyone ate happily. After the meal, several middle-aged women gathered around the old lady and told some interesting things about their age.Shui Linglong was so sleepy that she went back to the Mohe Courtyard to rest early, when she woke up, it was already sunset, the theater troupe in the mansion had dispersed, the guests had left, the old lady and Leng Youru were exhausted Very soon, I spared the greetings from the younger generation, and called her two after a few men returned home.

Zhi Fan carefully helped Shui Linglong change her clothes. Ever since Shui Linglong knew that she had lied to Zhuge Shu about her thoughts, she ignored her for several days. She felt that her heart could not bear the huge pressure and hesitation.Especially Shui Linglong's sentence "Well, it's time to marry" scared her half to death!

It's not that Shui Linglong doesn't know Zhifan's feelings, but if she doesn't teach this girl a lesson, she will never recognize her identity!Friendship and sincerity, both can have both, but the latter must be valued more than the former, otherwise, if there are changes in the future, it is difficult to guarantee that Zhifan will not turn his guns on her.She has to straighten this tendon for Zhifan!Dressed neatly, Ye Mao reported outside the door that Qiao Hui had arrived.Shui Linglong waved away Zhi Fan, leaving Ye Mao to serve in the room.Zhi Fan's eyes dimmed, and she walked out holding the obscene clothes that Shui Linglong had changed.

Shui Linglong called Qiao Hui to sit down on the chair: "I just rested here in the morning, and now I'm here again, is there something wrong?"

Qiao Hui was anxious all afternoon, when Shui Linglong asked, she said straight to the point: "Sister-in-law, what impression do you have of Miss Yan and Mrs. Yan?"

"I don't have a deep impression. Neither of them is a very distinctive person. Mrs. Yan's temperament seems to be the same as that of ordinary women. Maybe it's the first time we meet and don't know each other well. As for Ms. Yan, she is cheerful, lively, beautiful and generous. , Quick talk...why do you ask such a question?"

Holding the teacup, Qiao Hui said puzzledly, "I've inquired about it. Mr. Yan's term of office was originally two terms of six years. He was suddenly called back to Beijing a few days ago. I don't know why."

Shui Linglong noticed another meaning in Qiao Hui's words: "Why don't you inquire about the Yan family's news?"

Qiao Hui recounted what she had chatted with Mrs. Zhen three days ago: "My mother-in-law sighed, saying that it was not good for the princess to invite anyone, why did she invite Mrs. Yan? I wanted to ask, but my mother-in-law didn't tell me. People from the mansion sent supplements to the door, and I asked Xiu'er to find out the news from my mother by taking the opportunity to return the gift, and guess what I found out?"

Shui Linglong followed her words and asked, "What?"

Shui Linglong's expression greatly pleased Qiao Hui, and she really felt that she had done something extraordinary: "Sister-in-law, do you know who my elder brother's former fiancées were?"

Shui Linglong shook her head, not paying attention.

Qiao Hui's eyes lit up, and she felt more and more valuable: "Let's not talk about the next two appointments, the first one is Miss Luo from Luo Guogong's mansion."

There were two prime ministers and three generals in Luo Guogong's family, and it was considered prosperous in the period of the first emperor, but because the eldest son was arrogant and extravagant and had no way to teach his sons, several grandchildren were even worse than Zhuge Yu back then. The Duke was furious to death, and the huge Duke's Mansion lost its pillars. Fortunately, Mrs. Duke was a prominent princess who barely maintained the family business of the Duke's Mansion, but she also passed away two years ago. As for the Duke's Mansion and Zhuge Yu's in-laws, no one has mentioned it.Shui Linglong looked at Qiao Hui and signaled her to continue.

Qiao Hui said again: "Actually, she wasn't the first concubine that the princess was looking for at the beginning!"

Shui Linglong opened her eyes wide... Zhuge Yu, how many times have you been "sold" by Leng Youru?

Qiao Hui said seriously: "The first one that the princess fell in love with was Yan Zhen, daughter of the Yan family!"

Shui Linglong tightened her hand holding the teacup, her nails pinched crescents: "Is Yan Zhen's status too low?"

According to the standard from best to worst, there is no reason to choose Yan Zhen first, after all, when Zhuge Yu got engaged for the first time, except for the reputation of being stubborn, there was no such thing as restraining his wife.But soon, Shui Linglong felt relieved, Leng Youru planned to kill whoever she decided on, she was naturally not willing to find someone who was too difficult, so she didn't know how it turned out that Miss Luo was engaged to the palace?

Qiao Hui sighed: "Mrs. Yan and Princess Wang are very satisfied with this marriage. They met in private and agreed to the Geng Tie of the two. Unexpectedly, Master Yan was transferred to Yancheng to be the magistrate before he came to Najib. Mrs. Yan is worried about leaving her daughter in the capital, so this marriage will be ruined. Mrs. Yan's mother and Mrs. Luo Guogong are good friends in the boudoir, after some calculations, the marriage fell on Ms. Luo's head."

So, Yan Zhen and Zhuge Yu... missed it?Then Zhuge Yu goes to Yancheng every year...does he wait for Yan Zhen?Shui Linglong tightened her handkerchief.

Qiao Hui sighed again: "Didn't it be rumored that the elder brother had killed his wife before? Ms. Yan may have escaped a catastrophe."

Shui Linglong's eyes flickered, and she said with a meaningful smile: "Yes, your elder brother has to meet someone as tough as me to be able to handle it." I want to get close to her.

"Pfft——" Qiao Hui smiled, then suppressed her smile and said, "If Miss Luo crawls out of the grave, then I have nothing to say, but Yan Zhen and our palace didn't even leave Najib, so they are not considered engaged , so no matter how hard Yan Zhen struggles, it won't help." In the words, it was determined that Yan Zhen had plans to intervene with Shui Linglong and Zhuge Yu, but in fact, this was groundless and just a psychological shadow brought to her by Prince An and Dong Jialin .

"Yan Zhen is the same age as me. It's really rare that we haven't discussed marriage at this age!" Shui Linglong smiled and said, "But it's impossible for her to be with the prince." Yan Zhen dares to come, pinch to death!If Zhuge Yu dared to accept it, he would still be crushed to death!
Qiao Hui frowned, seeing Shui Linglong lost in thought, Quan thought that Shui Linglong was sad, and hurriedly comforted her: "Sister-in-law, don't take it to heart, I think...the concubine's banquet for Mrs. Yan has no other meaning, just get together with old friends The relationship between you and elder brother is so good, and you are pregnant, not to mention that it is impossible for Miss Yan to commit herself to being a concubine, even elder brother would never be willing to hurt sister-in-law's heart."

Qiao Hui smiled bitterly, and continued her words enviously: "On the first night grandpa came back, everyone participated in the emergency assembly, and you and I were the only ones absent." At this point, Shui Linglong looked at her inexplicably, then She didn't know much about the night.Qiao Hui took a deep breath, looked up at Fang Liang and said slowly: "Grandpa is very annoyed and wants to punish us, but you can't come because elder brother ordered your sleeping point in advance, so grandpa punished elder brother, we two are in Ma I brushed the war horses all night in the shed, and there are people watching, and I can’t even be lazy and talk, I’m about to faint from exhaustion, sister-in-law, you’re so lucky.”
