in spring

Chapter 339 Disgust
Man Ruzhen lost all of her beauty back then, at first glance she looked no different from the daughter-in-law of the second door, and even looked haggard, only her eyebrows and eyes could still find some traces of her beauty.She wears a plain face on her forehead, and the size seems to be a bit too big, so a purple scar under the forehead is loosely exposed at the corner of her forehead.She wears a very simple hairstyle, probably because she didn't apply enough sweet-scented osmanthus oil, her hair is a little frizzy, and the two hair ornaments inserted between her hair are worthless, one of which looks like Chunying back then. The glazed bead flower made for her.

Chunying's eyes darkened, and when she saw Zhuhua, she remembered what Manru had plotted against her back then, she smiled coldly, and just stood and ignored it.

As soon as Manru rushed over, she bowed in the corridor and said, "Third Young Madam, why is the time early today? I'm not late, am I? Please wait a little longer." With an anxious look on her face, she spoke , I broke out in a sweat.

Fan Xiru frowned, glanced at the railing, and the railing stepped forward and said with a straight face: "Grandma, our grandma has just sent a message, we have guests today, everyone will call back tomorrow, if it's urgent, just wait outside. Didn't you hear? Please go back!" Although he said "please", there was no respect in his expression.

Manru was taken aback, and glanced to the side, and sure enough, she saw a well-dressed young woman, surrounded by maids, so she knew it was a guest, and she seemed familiar.However, she paid more attention to her errands, and didn't think too much about it. She just said helplessly, "Just a little...just a little while, I won't delay your greeting guests, really..." How can this be? manage?If she couldn't get the things and money back within the time limit, she would be beaten again.she's really scared...

Diaolan waved his hand impatiently: "Why don't you invite my aunt to go out soon?!" Then a woman came up to drag her.

Manru panicked, thinking of the gloomy face of the second young mistress Liang's face, and the woman's whip beside her, she couldn't care less, she broke free from the person who was pulling her, threw herself at Fan Xiru's feet and kowtowed: "Three Young Mistress, please do me a favor! Please do me a favor! It really only takes a short while! Please have pity on me!" Fan Xiru's face immediately sank.

Chunying smiled, and said lightly: "Sure enough, it's not a coincidence that I came, why don't you talk about it after finishing your work?"

Fan Xiru's complexion was very ugly, and he forced a smile and said: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? How can there be any reason to ask guests to wait? This is the aunt of the second room, and she has never understood the rules. Don't laugh." He said to Manru: "This is the grandma of the Hu family, you are not rude, why don't you have any rules?! This is how the second sister-in-law taught you?!"

Manru shrank her neck, and made a big gift to Chunying: "I've seen Grandma Hu, I'm so rude..."

Chunying gave a faint "hmm", and said with a fake smile: "Hello, auntie."

Although Fan Xiru knew that they should be old acquaintances, but seeing Chunying's face obviously did not intend to talk to Manru, she hurriedly said: "I'm making sister-in-law a joke, I'll invite her out now. Come in and sit down, sister-in-law." Just ignore Manru, and walk in with Chunying alone.Chunying followed her in with a smile, but Manru was left outside, the railing gave her a wink, and then several women insisted on preventing her from entering, so she had to kneel outside the threshold and weep softly.

Cui Manru trembled slightly: Are you going to be beaten again today?The third young lady is not usually so strict, as long as she begs a few times, she will still listen to herself. What happened today?Is this a distinguished guest?Then why is it received in this kind of place?This is a place for directors, not a place for guests?Speaking of which, the few words of the guest just now sounded very familiar to her ears, and she was a little uncertain. Is this decent-looking young lady really the person she remembered?
Her mind was in a mess, and suddenly she heard snickering next to her, and when she looked up, the girls and daughters-in-law around her were all looking at her with contempt, she suddenly felt uncomfortable, turned her head, and saw Shi Er standing By the door, he glanced at himself out of the corner of his eye, as if looking at the mud, couldn't help but panic: "You...you..."

"How about me?" Shi'er glared at her, "Aunt-grandmother--please recognize where this is, and stop putting on airs in front of me!" She deliberately swayed in front of Manru with her head held high, With a flick of his head, he walked in the door.Only then did Manru realize that she was kneeling, wouldn't that mean kneeling ten times?And that guest, is it Chun Ying?After all, she is also the grand aunt of Qing Guohou's mansion, right?To actually bow down in front of the little girl...

Shi'er entered the door, first saluted Fan Xiru with a smile, and then stood behind Chunying.Although Chunying was a little embarrassed, she didn't say much, she just told Fan Xiru that Shi'er was an old acquaintance, and she was sent here because she was afraid that the people at the gate would not recognize her.

Fan Xiru nodded and didn't care.She knew that this was the wife in charge of the mansion, and it was possible that she was acquainted with Chunying.After exchanging pleasantries, she eagerly got to the point: "The other day when I came home and told my husband about you, he was very happy and kept saying that he would invite you back as a guest. Today he happens to be at home, Huaping, you go to the study outside , Tell the third young master that the guest I mentioned that night has arrived, please come and meet him soon."

Diaolan went away happily, Chunying raised her eyebrows, and said with a faint smile: "Didn't you say that the third young master is busy with homework? Seeing that it's time for the scientific examination again, I just came to talk to the third young lady, but I dare not Delayed his schoolwork."

Fan Xiru said, "After reading for a long time, it's time to take a break. He's always wanted to see you..." He was suffocated, and hurried over, "It's an acquaintance I've known since I was a child, and now those old people are leaving There are only a few left, and it is difficult to find someone to talk about the interesting things about his childhood. He also said that when he was young and ignorant, he was not considerate enough, and there were always things that people complained about. Just wanted to take this opportunity to make amends." He pointed to the dishes on the table, "Look, he knew you were coming, so he specially ordered someone to prepare some snacks that you used to eat, because the white case in the kitchen The cook is getting old, and he specially called people back to cook a meal. Try it, these small dishes are still the same as before?"

Chunying quickly glanced at the eight small dishes, feeling even more surprised.The third young master is... a sex change?He would be willing to spend these thoughts, and would he pay for it?Is it because Fan Xiru's words are too watery, or is it that the third young master... has something to ask of her?
But no matter how she thought about it, she never thought that she would be of any use to the third young master, that she could make him "make amends" to herself.Although Hu Fei can barely be regarded as good-looking, he only has a prince and adoptive father, plus an acquaintance in the inner prison. Although he is registered in the Royal Intelligence Bureau, he can only be regarded as a peripheral member. It has not yet reached the point where it can be an enemy country. Even if the family members of the Marquis of the Qing Kingdom are not as good as before, they are still lords and relatives of the emperor. Will a small person like Hu Fei be needed to help?But based on her understanding of the third young master, she naturally understood in her heart that if it wasn't for the profit, he wouldn't spend so much effort to please a former maid.If Fan Xiru lied, it seems unnecessary...

Does this mean... If the third young master really asked her, this request would be a hot potato?

Chunying immediately became vigilant, she is now Hu Fei's wife, for the sake of the safety of the family, she will never take trouble!
In a flash of thought, she showed a smiling face: "Look at what the third young lady said, what can I do to ask the third young master to compensate me? I still want to pay the third young master! At that time, I was young and ignorant, and I didn't do things well. , there is something to offend. It is my blessing that the third young master and the third young mistress don't blame me. How can I dare to say anything else? The third young mistress is not too polite. Although the princess praises me, everyone respects my background. Yes, I know, the third young master and the third young mistress rewarded me with face, I am certainly flattered, those who don't know know, I'm afraid they will laugh at me for being too frivolous! After all, I'm just a small family, although I have Compared with the Hou Mansion, this net worth is nothing."

Fan Xiru smiled dryly, unable to continue.Chunying's behavior was more modest than that day in the palace, which made it difficult for her to say anything.The husband once said that he wanted her to appease him so that he could bring up the matter later. In the current situation, what request should he make? It seems that it is not easy to handle?

She took a peek at Chunying, and saw that the other person's expression was calm, and she seemed to be determined, and she was not interested in those refreshments. She suspected that Chunying had already noticed her husband and wife's intentions, and what she said just now meant rejection. ?She couldn't help frowning.

A daughter-in-law came in and said to Fan Xiru directly: "Miss Third, Madam asked you to come over."

Fan Xiru was stunned, furious in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face: "I have a guest here, what can my wife do for me?"

The daughter-in-law just said bluntly: "I don't know, my wife just told you to go quickly." Diaolan scolded solemnly: "Did you see that grandma has guests?! Are there any rules?!" The daughter-in-law sneered: "I I came here at the order of my wife, and it will be over after passing on the word, I don't know what the rules are, if the third young lady doesn't go, I will go back and report to you."

Fan Xiru's face darkened, and she secretly glanced at Chunying, her face turned from black to red.It's not the first time the mother-in-law has done this, but it's just to slap her in the face in front of outsiders.It's just that if it's a foreigner who comes, others will only think that the mother-in-law is abrupt, but today it's an old servant!Even more embarrassing!Will Chunying underestimate her? !

Chunying smiled and lowered her head to drink tea. Seeing that the scene was a little stiff, she seemed to casually say: "The third young lady has something to do, just go and take care of it. It's better not to delay the wife's errand. Just ask Shi'er to sit with me."

After she said that, Fan Xiru had no choice but to get up and smiled reluctantly: "Then sister-in-law, sit down slowly, I will come as soon as I go." He ordered Shi'er: "You accompany me for a while first." The girl said: "Go to the front study to remind me, and say that I have gone to my wife's place, please come quickly, third young master!" Then she left.

As soon as Fan Xiru left, Chunying breathed a sigh of relief, and gave Shi'er a wink, Shi'er sat down on the lower armchair with a smile, ordered the little girl to bring some tea and snacks, but chatted about some unimportant topics, His eyes kept looking outside the door.

Manru knelt for a long time, listening to the entire conversation just now, but she didn't know that she guessed right, it was Chunying who came!Can't help but tremble all over.However, Chunying didn't pay any attention to her intentions at all, she just focused on talking to Shi'er, chatted with the girls present occasionally, and asked about the current situation of old acquaintances, but she didn't mention herself.

Manru stared at the big red satin jacket on Chunying's body with some envy, and the faint gold-woven pattern on the skirt, and then looked at the filigree multi-treasure gold hairpin on her head, the white jade pendant on her ear, and the delicate wrists. The shrimp whisker bracelet, and the vigor and vigor revealed on that round and beautiful face.Why... why? !She is just a little girl who is not as good as her in everything, not as good-looking as her, not as good-looking as her, not as exquisite as her, not as gentle and considerate as her, not as good as her to please his wife, not as good as her for the third young master, but this little girl, but With the favor of the third young master, even if he is stepped into the mud again and again, he will get up again and again.Why?Where is she inferior to others? Why can't such a blessing reach her? !

Seeing the jealousy in her eyes, Shi'er sneered, leaned closer to Chunying and said, "That bitch is staring at you, do you want to teach her a lesson?!" Chunying smiled slightly: "Now you are sitting, she is kneeling, you Drinking good tea and eating delicious snacks and chatting with me relaxedly, she can only kneel outside the door and watch our scenery. If we ignore her, she is already mad. If you care about her, isn't it demeaning? own?"

Shi'er realized, and smiled: "You're right, for a person like her, as long as she looks at others and knows how humble she is, that's enough for her. Why did I add to my hostility? !" So I ignored Manru and just talked about old things with Chunying.

Manru could hear clearly, her body was shaking more and more violently, she didn't know whether it was from anger or cold.She seemed a little unbearable, opened her mouth and called out: "You..." Then she heard the voice of the third young master Li You from behind: "What are you doing here?!" Young..." Before he finished speaking, Li You had passed her and entered the door like a gust of wind, and smiled at the people in the room: "Why are you here? Xiru is too negligent! Quick, go to Huanhuaxuan to serve tea! "

Chunying smiled and got up to salute her, as if there had never been any conflict between the two of them, Shi'er laughed beside her and said, "Third young master, you are too partial to one another, and I have served you for several years, why don't you see me?" I'm as happy as that?"

Li You gave her a white look: "You are common on weekdays, Chunying has been away for a few years, can this be the same? Now that Chunying's status is different, don't always be like you used to be, making people see jokes. "

Chunying felt unhappy, and said lightly, "Shi'er is fine." Shi'er glanced at her with a smile, and then raised an eyebrow at Li You.

"Okay, okay." Li You didn't want to quarrel with her, he still had something to ask her to do, "This is not a place to talk, let's go to Huanhuaxuan, I have something to discuss with you." After finishing speaking, he didn't tell the girl , turned around and walked out. When passing by Manru, he glanced at her in disgust: "What are you doing here? There are no rules! We don't keep you idle in our house! Why don't you go back and take care of me? !” Then he flicked his sleeves, as if shaking off something dirty, and walked away without looking back.

Chunying walked out without looking sideways, while Shi'er let out a small "bah" and smiled lowly: "You have today too!" Then he followed up with his head upright.

Cui Manru was trembling all over, her face was pale, and she was on the verge of falling, but there was another girl who looked at her displeased: "What are you doing here?! Let's go, get in the way!" She couldn't hold on any longer, and fell limply to the ground.
