The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 715
"It doesn't matter, Mr. Cui and Mr. Cui are your family's peerless benefactors."

Liu Shi couldn't bear it any longer, she rushed over from one side, grabbed Jiang Shi's arm, pinched it hard where no one could see, and then laughed loudly: "Haha, I know you guys The family remembers the kindness of the two generations of Xianggong, and dare not forget it for a moment. So knowing that today is Cui Xianggong's birthday, you insisted on asking me to treat you to pay your respects to Xianggong—"

While talking, Mrs. Liu tugged at Mrs. Jiang's sleeves, half explaining and half warning: "I know you well, so I won't blame you for being rude, but the Cui family is a poetic family, so let's do it like this." Come here hastily, although it is well intentioned, it seems reckless."

After finishing speaking, Liu Shi turned her head to look at Xiao Nan, her eyes were full of guilt, helplessness and vague uneasiness, she said softly: "Madame Qi is the most magnanimous, please forgive my concubine's rudeness."

forgive?

Xiao Nan raised his eyebrows, this word is easy to say but hard to do.

Today, Mrs. Jiang made such a scene in public. Although Mrs. Liu stopped her, the absurdity of Cui Youbo was well known in the upper class of the capital. I immediately remembered it.

Xiao Nan keenly noticed that a dozen or so mocking, pity, or sympathetic gazes had swept across her just now.

To be honest, it has been a long time since Cui Youbo washed her feet and went ashore, she hasn't been so 'watched' by people, this feeling of being paid attention is really uncomfortable.

Mrs. Liu may have brought Mrs. Jiang in because she couldn't bear the pleas of Cui Dezhi and his wife. Maybe she was really innocent, but so what. Can you get this matter out of the way with just a light 'forgive'? !
Sensing the coldness emanating from Xiao Nan's bones, Liu Shi shivered, she hastily tugged on Liu Shi's sleeve again, and reminded: "Mrs. Mrs. Guo apologize?!"

Just now Jiang ate Liu's pinch, his runaway reason pulled back in an instant, and suddenly realized that he had done something stupid, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back instantly.

She swallowed her saliva nervously, forced a smile, bowed her body and said in a blessing manner: "Slave, Nu Menglang, please forgive me, madam!"

Xiao Nan didn't pay attention to this remark at all, she turned her head to look left and right, and gave Yuzan a look.

Yuhan understood, and quietly retreated out.

Xiao Nan didn't speak, but Mrs. Huo picked up the conversation, and she covered her mouth with a veil, pretending to be surprised and said: "Oh, when Mrs. Xue said it, I remembered it, it seems that I am not invited to come here Well. Tsk tsk, I originally thought that Cui Xianggong's 66th birthday is a rare happy event, so I had the cheek to ask for a glass of wedding wine, but I didn't expect it to be rude. Mrs. Qi, don't you also feel that the old man is rude?!"

He said apologetic words, but his tone was very provocative, he almost pointed at Xiao Nan's nose and said that she was narrow-minded and didn't know how to be considerate of others.

But today is a happy event for the Cui family, Xiao Nan, as the daughter-in-law of the Cui family, even if he suffers a little grievance, he has to bear it for the sake of the overall situation, so as not to turn his face in public.

Mrs. Huo and other people who want to provoke are sure of this, so they will speak unscrupulously and satirically.

No, Xiao Nan twitched the corners of his mouth, and said lightly: "It's good that Mrs. Huo understands. The Cui family is not two cities in the east and west. If everyone can come in and out, why bother to send invitations to the guests in advance?"

As he spoke, Xiao Nan swiped his right hand outwards, and pointed to the guests around him, "If this is a place where everything can sneak in, how will these invited guests feel?"

In a word, Xiao Nan pushed most of the guests present to his side.

The noble ladies who were still watching the fun couldn't help but nodded secretly when they heard this: Yes, we came to Cui's house, that's because the Cui family solemnly posted a post for themselves, and they are specially invited guests.

To put it bluntly, except for the Cui family's in-laws, those who can be invited to the Cui family to drink birthday wine are either old gentry, important ministers in the court, or Li clan relatives, and almost all of them are in the capital. The first-class people who talk.

If one or two strange people suddenly mixed into this noble circle of my own, wouldn't that lower the grade of this social circle?
For example, today's birthday banquet, because the Cui family is going to hold a big one, so the gate control may not be too strict, but some people who took the opportunity to sneak in did not know the seriousness.

Don't you know who you are?
In some places, even if you try to sneak in, you are not the same as us.

Thinking about it this way, those noble ladies also complained a bit when they looked at Mrs. Xue and other 'leaders'.

Xiao Nan saw that his words had an effect, the smile on his lips became wider, and he continued: "Mrs. Huo is getting old, and she has forgotten common sense for a while, but she can be considerate, but the person who brought you here is not very kind. This move will provoke ridicule, but you still have to do it recklessly. It is definitely not out of good intentions. Although I am young, I also understand some reasons. I advise Mrs. Huo to use your brain before speaking and acting. If you make a wrong step, you will lose yourself If you don’t say it, you will shame your children and grandchildren!”

Rather than being angry, she wanted to know who was behind the scenes who pushed Mrs. Huo to come forward.

Ping An, or the Wei family? !

Mrs. Huo's face flushed instantly, she didn't expect Xiao Nan to be so disregarding face, doesn't she understand the truth of 'everyone who comes is a guest', doesn't she know that Xiao Nan is the host and should treat the guests with courtesy of it?
"You, you..." Mrs. Huo trembled, and was about to point at Xiao Nan when a young woman in her thirties squeezed in from the crowd. Her face was pale, she held Mrs. Huo's arm, and persuaded in a low voice : "Aniang, you, have you relapsed from your old disease?"

Before Mrs. Huo could speak, she eagerly explained to Xiao Nan and the female guests present, "Mrs. Xiao, ladies, everyone who is a concubine (the honorific title of mother-in-law) is not in good spirits, and the old illness has relapsed. Please forgive me, everyone."

Mrs. Huo was out of breath, and was reprimanded by Xiao Nan in public. She was already ashamed enough, but she didn't expect her daughter-in-law to open her eyes and tell nonsense, and even cursed her as 'sick'.

Mrs. Huo shook it vigorously, and was about to scold her daughter-in-law.

Unexpectedly, the wife of the Huo family reacted quickly, and immediately grabbed Mrs. Huo's arm, gritted her teeth and said, "Mother, I know that you respect Cui Xianggong and his wife, that's why you specifically asked Nanping County Master to bring you to Cui's house. , but your health is really bad, let's go back and don't disturb the master's house!"

Without waiting for Mrs. Huo to struggle again, Mrs. Huo winked behind her.

Immediately, two burly women rushed over from the crowd, one of them held Mrs. Huo's arm, and half dragged her to 'invite' her out.

The whole process was very short, almost in the blink of an eye, but the wife of the Huo family was so tired that she was sweating profusely. She didn't care to wipe off the sweat, and bowed to Xiao Nan, "Forgive me, Mrs. Xiao, everyone is not in good health. Today's inappropriate words and deeds are definitely not intentional. I dare not extravagantly ask Madam for forgiveness, and in the future, I will go to Madam to apologize to Madam!"

After all, the wife of the Huo family bowed again and again.

Xiao Nan didn't speak, but looked at the Huo family's wife rather playfully.

This is Mrs. Huo's eldest daughter-in-law. I heard that she is very capable, but Xiao Nan has nothing to do with the Huo family, so I haven't seen her much.

Seeing him today, Xiao Nan nodded secretly, he is indeed a good person, with a clear mind and understanding of seriousness, although it is an apology, his attitude is neither humble nor overbearing, he is a character.

Xiao Nan secretly made a note of this person, and was going to ask Yuzan to investigate after returning home.

Regardless of whether she intended it or not, Mrs. Huo's injury was indeed related to her, and enmity with the Huo family was inevitable.

Xiao Nan is not worried about a straight-hearted Mrs. Huo, but if the wife of the Huo family is a woman with brains and courage, she has to study it carefully.

"Ok!"

Xiao Nan snorted through his nose, and said coldly: "Since the madam of your mansion is not in good spirits, then don't let her wander around. Our Cui family has always been sensible, and naturally we will not care about a sick old woman. But If it's someone else, tsk tsk—"

Xiao Nan didn't say what happened next, but the sarcasm in it was clearly heard by the wife of the Huo family.

Gritting her teeth secretly, the wife of the Huo family responded with a smile, then bowed to the ladies around her, and then stepped back quickly.

As soon as the Huo family left, the Liu family and the Jiang family became the focus of everyone's attention.

Liu's face was flushed purple, since she could remember, she had never been so humiliated in her life.

Xiao Nan's words just now are not so much scolding for Huo's family as scolding for her.

After hearing those words, Liu Shi understood that today's matter could never be covered up so easily, she bit her lower lip, and said blessingly again: "What Mrs. Qi said is that the concubine is indeed rude— —”

Xiao Nan waved his hands, the coldness on his face slowly faded, he said with a light smile, "Mrs. Xue is too polite, you are invited to come to have birthday wine, I only have to welcome you, how can you talk about being rude? By the way, my eldest aunt is still in the main hall, just now she asked about Mrs. Xue, and I invite Mrs. Xue to go and talk about it!"

Liu Shi was startled, she didn't understand what Xiao Nan meant.

What Xiao Nan said just now clearly indicated that she would not let it go, didn't you see that she directly drove the Huo family out, why now?

Surprised eyes met Xiao Nan's magnanimous eyes, Liu's heart relaxed, she suddenly understood Xiao Nan's meaning, smiled gratefully, and said following Xiao Nan's words: "I have long wanted to go Greetings to Mrs. Tai, today is also Mrs. Tai's big day, and I want to say a few auspicious words to Mrs. Tai to win the prize!"

Saying that, Liu Shi bowed slightly again to express his thanks.

Xiao Nan nodded, and ordered the maid in charge of reception to invite Liu Shi in.

Seeing this, Mrs. Jiang thought she had nothing to do, so she quickly followed behind Mrs. Liu.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Nan sternly said, "You, get out!"

Jiang was stunned, and pointed a finger at herself, "Me?"

Xiao Nan sneered coldly, "That's right, it's you. Hmph, but how dare a disengaged Hakka be presumptuous at the Lord's house? Why don't you get out?!"
