Chapter 8
Minghui's beauty is still limited, but that Xianhui... a standard beauty with an oval face, a pointed chin, a pair of big and long beautiful phoenix eyes, can't pick out any flaws at all.And she is quite good at dressing up, wearing a plain jacket with light golden cloud patterns, a moon white girdle, and a pleated skirt with smoked peonies scattered underneath.

It complements her with a radiant complexion and a radiant complexion - she is not a country girl with a sallow complexion at all!
Shao Tongyun's heart was sour, and he took a breath, "Usually, I only heard that other people's fathers raised children outside and added concubine brothers and sisters. Fortunately, I have a pair of brothers and sisters-in-law and two sisters out of thin air. And... there is also a aunt who was born as a first wife."

"Are you saying enough?!" Rong slapped the table hard, causing the teacup to dance wildly.

"Mother got angry in front of others, so she used me to get angry." Shao Tongyun's eyes were red, and he cried: "If you don't clean up others, what's the point of burying your own daughter?" He went back to the house.

Rong rubbed her swollen forehead, and called out, "Mother Ruan, come in."

The bead curtain swayed, and a middle-aged woman with a round face came in. She was slightly fat and had a bun on her hair. Contrary to Mama Ding's shrewdness, she looked quite honest and kind.But when she passed by the maids, all of them bowed their heads, which showed that she held a heavy weight in the servant's heart, so she stepped forward and called out, "Madam."

Rong whispered bitterly, "It seems that we underestimated the enemy too much."

Ruan's mother has been following the mistress, not leaving her every step, and naturally she is watching what happened today.Of course he understood the anger of the mistress in his heart, and persuaded: "Madam, calm down."

Rong gritted her teeth and said, "I thought that they were all from the countryside, ignorant and timid, and when they entered the door, they would be underwhelmed, humiliate them, shame their face, and suppress their arrogance all at once. Already." He let out a sigh of reluctance, "I didn't expect that we underestimated others and used the wrong method, but suffered a big loss."

"That's right." Ruan's mother nodded, "The Shen family is not a fuel-efficient lamp, talking insinuations."

Speaking of this, the anger in Rong's heart flared up again, "What are you saying that Tongyun and Xianhui were born in one year, isn't it just mocking me when I was anxious, and I got married with the master when I was so anxious? But can you blame me for this?" There was grievance on her face, "Back then, the master said that his wife and family were gone, who knew he didn't die?"

"Yes, yes." Mother Ruan echoed a few words.

Rong's tone complained, "It's the master who concealed it, he was anxious, and made me a laughing stock!"

Ruan's mother was inconvenient to say more about Shao Yuanheng, so she changed the subject and said, "I see, that second young lady is very talkative and clever, and everything happened to her today." She lowered her voice, "Madam, tell me, is she really serious?" Are you stupid? Or are you pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?"

"You doubt Xianhui?" Rong frowned, thinking carefully, "She was the one who scolded Zhui'er, and she was the one who asked me about the scented tea. It's a bit of a coincidence... But how could she know our arrangement? ? Forget it, forget it." He waved his hand irritably, "Don't be suspicious, a little girl's film is worth facing a big enemy? The days to come can't be over."

"That's right." Ruan's mother nodded, "She should be lucky today, and she talked a lot, so it's just a coincidence." Then she persuaded, "So, Madam, don't be too angry."

"You don't understand." Rong's brows were gloomy, "That little girl is making trouble, and Shen and I are fighting each other. Other people's wives and concubines fight endlessly, let alone two wives. I have been prepared in my heart." She smiled coldly, "Anyway, in the back house, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind. We will have a long time to get along with each other, so take your time."

"Then... what is madam worried about?"

"I'm Master Qi!" Rong's eyebrows were twisted into knots, "I said it well in front of me at the beginning, for the sake of my mother, I just took them over to support them, give them a house to live in, and give them food. Just eat." With a sneer, "What happened to him? I'm afraid that the people over there will be wronged by a fingernail. People who are usually so careless suddenly become meticulous. They even gave clothes, silk flowers, and even rouge and powder. Well prepared."

Ruan's mother thought for a while, "Not necessarily, maybe Shen and the others bought it themselves?"

"Bought it?" Rong snorted angrily, "Look carefully, it is the most fashionable look in Jiangdu this year. How could it be sold in a countryside like Xianzhi Town?"

"Perhaps..." Ruan's mother hesitated, "When they went to the city, they bought it at a store in Jiangdu temporarily? It's not too difficult to buy a few sets of ready-made clothes."

"Okay, okay, stop coaxing me." Rong waved impatiently, "Take a look at the embroiderers and styles, how can there be such goods in the clothing store? The master must have found the embroiderers in advance and measured them for them." Tailor-made. Taking a step back, they really bought the ready-made clothes themselves, but how much money does a high-quality embroidered dress cost? Can they afford it? That’s not the money given by the master.”

Ruan's mother was speechless, and she was even more afraid that talking about this topic would make the mistress angry, so she had to keep her mouth shut.

"Look, this is just the beginning." Rong's heart was extremely annoyed, and he complained: "Master's heart has already gone that way, can I pay back in the future?" He spat hard, "Shao Yuanheng, you are not Conscience stuff!"

If Shao Yuanheng heard this swearing, he would definitely cry out for being wronged.

But still relying on the master and servant of the Rong family to think about it, they couldn't figure out that it was Xianhui who was secretly playing tricks from the beginning to the end. No matter how he thought about it, he could only suspect Shao Yuanheng.

On the other side, Mrs. Shen was holding her little daughter's hand, and said with emotion: "Thanks to Xianhui for asking you a good question, otherwise, our mothers would all be embarrassed."

"That's right." Minghui felt lingering fear, "I almost drank the scented tea."

Grandma Shao's face paled, "Me too."

Shen said coldly: "Ms. Rong looked at us from the countryside and had never seen the world, so she wanted us to make a big fool of myself in public and show her a joke. Ridiculous! She didn't even look in the mirror. That's a big joke."

Ming Hui persuaded: "Mother, calm down."

Shen sneered and said: "I think back then, when Rong married your father, why didn't you ask first, did your father marry a wife? Did your wife die? It was your father who said I was dead. When did I die?" Did you observe filial piety for a year? The Rong family looked at one..." The following words, in front of the two daughters who have not left the cabinet, are really hard to say.

Rong Shi looked at a handsome man, and jumped on him, what a rush, what a lack of men!
In fact, Shen's thinking like this is not wronging Rong's.

Even if Shao Yuanheng looks at him now, he is still handsome, not to mention how suave he was when he was young.Rong's willingness to marry him, a man who was married before, and his handsome looks, was indeed one of the reasons.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it." After ten days of driving, Shen Shi had just fought a battle with Rong Shi, and she felt more and more tired. Besides, it was inconvenient to say in front of her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law that men are not men.So he waved his hands, "You all go back to freshen up, change your clothes, and take a rest."

Xian Hui and the others got up to say goodbye and went out.

Grandma Shao went back to the house and said with a smile: "I didn't say that, Xianhui, the older you get, the smarter you become."

"Yeah." Shao Jingye nodded, "Thanks to Xianhui for letting you prepare in advance, put on new clothes, and dress up again." Thinking of the Rong family, who was dressed up beautifully, the mother and the Rong family stood together and compared, it was more than old ten years old?It's almost like mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

He thought for a while, and told his wife, "In the future, when you go out, remember to be careful."

"Okay, I'll remember." Grandma Shao is an honest and responsible woman, she has no opinions, and she doesn't talk too much. She just listens to her husband and in-law's arrangement in everything, "If I don't understand, just ask Xianhui And Minghui, they are well dressed."

Shao Jingye said, "Well, you can ask more questions."

He didn't pay too much attention to the struggle in the back house, the Rong family can't kill people to get more money, at most they play some tricks to make them idle, they are all trivial women's tricks.But right now, Haosheng followed his father to learn how to do business and support the family, this is the most important thing.

Especially now that Shao Jingyu is still young, and he learned how to do business a few years earlier, so he is ahead of him. This is a great advantage.If you can earn one or two shops, or even a larger family business, what worries will you have in the future?People in this room don't have to rely on others anymore.

At that time, what does it matter if father is good or not, or not?Mother, two younger sisters, and wife and daughter, I will support them and take good care of them.

The young husband and wife talked a few words about homework, and because their daughter fell asleep, they also went to sleep and returned to the cage for a sleep.

And Xianhui and Minghui were lying in the same bed and whispering.

Ming Hui whispered: "That Tong Yun, at first I saw that she was quite gentle and generous, but I didn't expect... to be in collusion with the Rong family and see our jokes."

Xianhui thought to herself, the mother and daughter of the Rong family have a lot of tricks, and the problem of Zhui'er hasn't come out yet.

"But later..." Minghui smiled again, and said in a low voice: "Mother said that when Tongyun was the same age as you, I saw...she blushed, and that Rong Shi was also annoyed."

"Yes! Mother is right." Xianhui snorted coldly, "The third sister is only three months younger than me, so it's not her mother who is in a hurry, but who is in a hurry?" Thinking of her father, she spat, "...father is also in a hurry. "

——I can't blame my mother for disgusting them.

In the previous life, the mother was called mother by Zhuang'er in public, and she was so ashamed that she couldn't come down to the stage. The Rong family also let Zhuang'er make up arrangements, so angry that her mother fell ill.At that time, Rong Shi and Shao Tongyun didn't know how proud they were, and they deserved to be pissed off now, to taste the aggrieved feeling in their hearts.

"Eldest Miss, Second Miss." The girl shouted outside: "It's almost time, it's time to get up and get ready for dinner."

"Understood." Xianhui rolled over and got up, smiling at her sister: "Get up, I will dress you up."

She had been a wealthy lady for more than three years in her previous life, and she had her own experience in dressing.

Because my sister's appearance is gentle and generous, she drew long and slightly curved willow leaf eyebrows, and applied a little powder on her face, with rouge on her face, dignified yet bright.Then he put on a ginger-yellow flowered jacket with sleeves and a light apricot skirt, like a cluster of jasmine flowers in full bloom.

Xianhui has a willow-green jacket and a moon-white skirt, like a slender new willow by the lake.

The two sisters went to look for their mother, and Shen suddenly felt her eyes light up, "Not bad, it's clean and refreshing." Looking at the daughter-in-law in the stone blue jacket and the son in the navy blue robe, they were all very clean and refreshing, but... not as good as The new clothes that were changed before are gorgeous.

"What's wrong? Mother." Minghui asked.

Shen sighed, "Our clothes are still a little short. When we came here in a hurry, we only got two sets out. The previous set with embroidered borders has been changed again. Now everyone is dressed in plain clothes." Shaking his head, " If I had known earlier, I should have saved that suit for tonight."

Xianhui knew what her mother was worried about. At the welcome banquet, the mother and daughter of the Rong family must dress up in beautiful clothes, and her mother was worried that she would lose face to everyone in the house.But I had a plan in my heart, so I smiled lightly, "Mother, we just need to dress a little lighter, so we can sing later."

"Singing opera?" Shen asked puzzledly, "What kind of opera is singing?"

Xianhui was mysterious, and smiled quietly: "Let's go, you will find out later."

Today's reception banquet is held in the courtyard where Shao's mother lives, so that the old man doesn't have to go out, so that he won't be frozen by the wind and snow outside.

Mrs. Shen and her sons and daughters have always been with their mother-in-law. They have been together for more than ten years. Needless to say, they are acquainted with each other. They are still talking and laughing around the stove as before when they entered the door.

The atmosphere was lively, and there was a movement outside, and a girl shouted: "Master is here."

The laughter in the room suddenly froze.

Xianhui turned her head and looked over.

Sure enough... it was still the same as in the previous life, the father came with the Rong family's mother and son, and they were not newlyweds, did they have to get tired of being together?It's disgusting!Today is a welcome banquet, and my father is not willing to save any more face for my mother.

Shao Yuanheng wore a dark golden robe, a crane cloak, and a black fox fur hat, looking like a wealthy and wealthy lord.He entered the door full of energy, and said with a smile, "Mother, is it warm to live in this courtyard? If it's cold, ask Mrs. Rong to add two more charcoal basins for you." Turning around, he said, "In Mother's room, remember to keep the Use silver frost charcoal."

Shao's mother waved her hands again and again, "Hey... I'm not that delicate as an old woman, so don't ruin my fortune."

"Look at what mother said." Rong Shi was not willing to be compared to Shen Shi in terms of filial piety, so she also called mother instead, smiling very affectionately, "Your old man is a person who specializes in enjoying blessings, how can you lose blessings? Let alone Yinshuang Charcoal, that is, gold charcoal, silver charcoal, pearl charcoal, can be placed in your house."

She drew out her tone, turned her head to look at her husband with a smile like a flower, "Master, are you right?"

Shao Yuanheng nodded, "Yes."

The corners of Shen's mouth were slightly raised, revealing a hint of sarcasm.

The Rong family didn't intend to stop,--the previous few confrontations were exhausted, how could they not want to win back the field?Not only showing off that her husband is close to her, but also showing off her son, "By the way, Jing Yu is back." Pushing his son, "Go over and say hello."

Shao Jingyu is just 12 years old this year. He is half a boy. His face looks like the Rong family's, but his stature is inherited from the Shao family's tall and slender body. With his thin body, he looks a bit long-armed and long-legged.He stepped forward and said dryly: "Greetings to grandma." As for Shen and the others, he was even more reluctant, and lazily said: "Mrs. Shen, elder brother and sister-in-law, hello two sisters."

In one breath, he was perfunctory.

Shao Yuanheng frowned.

Seeing that her husband's expression was not good, Mrs. Rong hurriedly interrupted, "By the way, master." Pointing to her daughter, "When Jing Yu came back in the afternoon, he brought Tong Yun a red coral bracelet. I heard that it is the king of the fourth county. It was given to the people in the mansion, but Princess Dajun thought it was too bright, so she asked Jing Yu to wear it for her because she thought Tongyun was young."

Shao Tongyun held it up as if offering a treasure, "Father, look at the color and head of the water."

"Ah, this bracelet is so beautiful!" Xianhui held back for a while, and then waited to talk about the red coral bracelet, and immediately surrounded her with envy, "Third sister, let me take a closer look."
