Chapter 21
Mama Lin, who was suddenly accused, reacted quickly. Seeing the distressed look of the third lady, she knew that she was going to make her take the blame. Hearing her keep saying that she came from the Yang family as a dowry, she knew that she had to follow the wishes of the third lady. Admitting to the wrong path and going the same way, without getting entangled, he cried out in an instant, crying bitterly and reforming his mistakes.

"Ma'am, ma'am! This servant made a mistake. All this is the fault of this servant. The servant was careless and lazy, and pressed down the clothes that Madam ordered to make. I was thinking about when to send them over, but I never thought of being busy. I really forgot, but it’s the servant’s fault that Madam has been wronged!” Mama Lin has served the Third Madam for many years, and although she is not the most favored, she also knows that the Third Madam’s temper is the most domineering, earlier this Shi Yiqing Offended Shi Xuanxin, although the third wife didn't show it publicly, she also did a lot of small tricks in secret. It was obvious that this was to make Shi Yiqing look bad. If it was about picking up some clothes at that moment, it wouldn't be a straight shot. Bump?Now that I think about it, I really regret it, but I also understand that she has committed the blame.

Now she has figured it out. Everyone says that the third and fourth lady, Shi Yiqing, is a formidable person. She was abandoned by the Shi family for many years and was able to come back. Let the third lady knead it, and look now, where there is a piece of soft dough, it is clearly a thorn!It's just that she is very smart. If she is stupid, she will be embarrassed and lose face if she finds out the truth in front of the third lady, but if she speaks it in front of everyone, it can still make people feel ashamed. The old lady made a speech, and the third lady gave up her pawns to save the car, which made herself end up like this.

At this time, Shi Xuanxin, who had been silent for a long time, jumped out and scolded with a pure and kind look: "Mother Lin, you are really disgusting, why don't you hurry up and apologize to my fourth sister!"

Shi Xuanxin is still so beautiful and compelling, even if she scolds her words, she feels so gentle and amiable when she comes out of her mouth. If Shi Yiqing has never known the dark side of her past life, she will be deceived now past.Shi Yiqing only felt a surge of nausea in his chest, he turned his eyes away slightly, and his narrow eyelashes closed slightly, covering the sarcasm that couldn't be hidden deep in his eyes.

At this point in the play, Lin's mother stepped forward to kneel in front of Shi Yiqing, but Shi Yiqing avoided it as if she was taken aback, and before she could speak, she heard the third wife, Mrs. Yang, say angrily: "Mrs. Lin, now you have committed a big crime." It’s wrong, it’s even more provoking our mother-daughter relationship, if Qing’er forgives you, you’ll be fine, if Qing’er refuses, you can just kneel here forever!”

The old lady Meng rubbed her tense forehead and said impatiently: "The old third family, there are rules in the house. Since this mother is not good at doing things, she will be punished, and you don't need to talk to her here. Just pull it out and hit twenty boards. Zhuxi, you go and watch."

Lin's mother knew that this meal was indispensable, so she gave up struggling and was dragged out by the servants. She raised her eyes subconsciously and looked in Shi Yiqing's direction. A chill came from her eyes, which excited her heart. Fear, trembling subconsciously.

The third wife Yang didn't even look at Mama Lin who was being dragged out, she turned her face with a loving mother's face, and said gently: "Qing'er, don't worry, mother is in charge of everything, but which slave in the mansion dares to neglect you , you told me to come, see if I don’t kill this group of people!”

Shi Yiqing leaned over and saluted gratefully: "Qing'er thanked mother, everything is up to mother."

The old lady rubbed her temples and nodded and said: "Recently, the atmosphere in the mansion is really not clear, you should keep things in your house well, and this kind of thing must never happen again!" She looked at Shi Yiqing carefully, and beckoned her over , patted the side, and said softly, "Son, come here and sit beside grandma."

Everyone's expressions changed again.Shi Yiqing knew that only the eldest son of the big family who died a few years ago could sit beside the old lady Meng, and Meng never let anyone else sit beside her, and now her actions seemed to be addressing everyone Announced that from now on, she, Shi Yiqing, will be loved by the old lady Meng Shi.

Shi Yiqing knows very well that as long as he sits beside Meng Shi, no matter whether it is the three wives above, or the arrogant and unreasonable Shi Xuanxin and others below, they will not dare to offend her easily, at least on the surface. .

The old lady Meng took Shi Yiqing's hand and sighed, "You child, since the first time I saw you when you returned home, I thought you looked familiar. Now that I see you, you really look like the one you were in when you were young. Me. I should have given these things to you when I saw you for the first time, but your grandmother is old and forgot, and it is not too late to give them to you now. "

As he said that, Zhu Xi, who was serving by Mrs. Meng's side, came out from the inside holding a carved box. Shi Yiqing subconsciously stretched out his hand to open it, only to see that it was full of jewelry.Standing nearby, Shi Xuanxin raised his eyes and saw that everything inside was better than the vulgar hairpin on his head, especially the Begonia flower wreath carved from one of the red phoenix blood. Hairpins are the most finely carved, presumably valuable.

Shi Xuanxin almost gritted his silver teeth, secretly depressed, he had done so many things today, and specially found a husband to learn how to cook tea, in order not only to stand out in front of everyone, but most of them are still running for the Meng family. Here comes the reward.Originally looking at the vulgar hairpin on her head, she only thought that Mrs. Meng was a vulgar person. Although she knew that gold and silver things were precious, she didn't know how to appreciate and play with jade, so she gave this kind of hairpin to her.But now that she looked at the crabapple jade hairpin, she felt more and more that she should wear it so as not to lose it, and Shi Yiqing, of course she didn't deserve to touch it!
Shi Yiqing was very surprised, she never thought that the old lady would give her so many jewelry in public, let alone in such an occasion, it should not be done on a whim.Shi Yiqing became more and more confused, turned to look at the old lady but changed to a grateful face, hurriedly stood up and bowed down: "Grandma, these gifts are too expensive, Qing'er can't afford it!"

The old lady picked up the most dazzling begonia flower necklace hairpin from the box and pinned it on Shi Yiqing's temples. She looked at her carefully with delighted eyes, and said with a slow smile: "It really is a beauty. Qing'er, stand up, Let everyone see, isn't she as beautiful as a fairy?"

Shi Yiqing obediently stood up, and met everyone's envious or jealous gazes shyly and timidly. In an instant, she seemed to understand that this was Meng's plainly telling everyone that she took this granddaughter very seriously. Yes, even several times better than the grandson of a direct relative.

Thinking of this, Shi Yiqing at this moment is really full of gratitude to the old lady Meng.In fact, she understands that a fox is like the old lady Meng, how can she not know her own tricks, and she will not understand the actions of the third lady Yang. Now she has never blamed her, and she still supports herself in front of everyone. Let others underestimate her, that's the point.

Shi Yiqing lowered her cheek slightly and leaned over to thank Meng Shi: "Thank you, grandma, for your kindness, Qing'er will always remember it in my heart and never forget it!"

With just one sentence, Meng looked at her with smiling eyes and nodded. At this moment, the two of them are so connected.

Although the eldest lady standing below had an airs on her face, trying to hide her ugly expression, but seeing the old lady's behavior, she knew that she wanted to show something, so she stepped forward and took Shi Yiqing's hand, and took it off her wrist. She put the high-grade Hetian jade on her wrist, and said gently: "Auntie doesn't have anything good to give you. Although this Hetian jade is only high-quality, I haven't taken it off for many years, and now I'm sharing it with you , it can be regarded as making up for the regret of the hasty meeting last time."

Shi Yiqing was still waiting to decline, the eldest lady nodded with a smile and said: "It's nothing, just accept it."

The second lady on the side had a stiff face, pulled her lips and smiled, pulled out the only pure gold phoenix hairpin on her head and stuck it in Shi Yiqing's hair, and said, "Second aunt can't compare to your grandmother and your eldest aunt, this hairpin is considered Just a little bit of my heart."

The two wives gave her gifts one after another. The third wives, who wanted to sit idly by, looked at the crowd of juniors waiting to see her movements. Although their flesh was tight, they still had to give up some valuables. Don't let others underestimate you.She stretched out her hand to touch the priceless top-quality emerald jade bracelet on her wrist, and reluctantly let go of her fingers. She also wanted to touch the hairpin on her temples, but she felt that it was not as expensive as the old lady's crabapple, so she couldn't get it out, so she hesitated again and again , stretched out his hand to tear off the sachet from his waist, subconsciously clenched it tightly in his palm, and made a choice.

The third lady Yang looked at herself coldly after the second lady finished speaking, waiting to see her own joke, she couldn't help being stimulated and annoyed in her heart, when she turned her eyes to look at Shi Yiqing, she had a loving face, beckoned and said: "Good girl, come here to mother! Mother's gift has been prepared for you a long time ago. I originally thought of giving it to you in private, but now it looks like I might as well give it to you now."

Although the third lady had put on a good show before and sent all the seemingly expensive and valuable things to the Ningxie Hall, but in the end it was too hurt to sell, and it had no practical value at all.Now that the third lady is being chased by the old lady, the first lady, and the second lady, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it unless I take out the good things at the bottom of the box.

Shi Yiqing stepped forward slowly to thank the third lady, took the sachet held tightly in the third lady's hand, opened it curiously, and saw a piece of excellent suet jade lying in front of her eyes, couldn't help being stunned, and subconsciously looked up. Eyes to look at the third lady Yang.

If she guessed correctly, this piece of mutton fat jade should be found by the third wife Yang and given to Shi Xuanxin. After Shi Xuanxin performed the ceremony of Jiji, he gave it out in front of all the dignitaries in the capital. Let Shi Xuanxin of that day become a legend in the capital, and successfully captured Li Chi's heart with his glamorous halo.

The third lady looked at Shi Yiqing and looked at herself. Although she gave it to her with some pain in her heart, it was a gift after all, and she couldn't go back on her words. She could only say with a stiff and loving smile: "This is from the palace of the former court." You have to put away the good things carefully, and don’t lose them.”

Shi Yiqing naturally knew the preciousness of this thing, not to mention the entire royal family, even the entire Dayan Dynasty, I am afraid that there are few pieces of such undamaged and uncut beautiful jade.She smiled slightly, with a shy face but accepted it calmly: "Thank you, mother."
