Reborn Concubine's Wife

Chapter 68
Xiangju looked up at her quickly, she was very surprised.Seventh aunt, she doesn't see much, why is she so affectionate towards herself?Subconsciously, she took a step back without a trace.

Zheng Ruo didn't care either, she knew that Xiangju was very cautious and very wary.Withdrawing her hand, she asked with a smile: "I don't know what the madam invited me this time?"

"I don't know. The madam only said to let the girl go," she paused, "It must not be a bad thing to have guests in the mansion."

"Yeah." Zheng Ruo nodded, went back to the attic, changed clothes and came out.

"Little sister, be careful. Let Liu Xu come back and let elder brother know if something happens." Zheng Jinxiao leaned on a cane and said softly beside her.

Zheng Ruo glanced at Xiangju, seeing that she didn't look up, as if she didn't hear, she nodded in satisfaction.

"Brother, don't worry, maybe Madam is bored and has invited some guests, and she wants us sister-in-laws to accompany her."

"That's good."

Followed Xiangju out of the small courtyard, got into the carriage, and headed for the courtyard in the center of Wubao.Different from the misty rain last time, this time under the sun, the Sanjin courtyard where the head of the family lives looks even more exquisite.Because of the late spring, all the flowers and trees are extraordinarily vigorous, seize the time to bloom, as if they will spend their entire lives in this season.

Get out of the carriage, walk across the Jiuqu Bridge, turn around the water corridor, and arrive at the Sanjin courtyard.From a distance, there was a sound of laughter, like wind chimes hanging under the eaves colliding with each other, crisp and melodious.

Xiangju asked Zheng Ruo to wait outside, and she went in to report first.

Liu Xu accompanied her and waited quietly under the eaves outside. She thought that she would wait for a very long time like the last time she saw the Patriarch, but she never thought that soon, she heard Madam's voice from inside. sound.

"Is Ah Ruo here? Quickly invite her in." Her voice was eager and joyful.

Xiangju came out with a smile and welcomed her in.

There were many sisters-in-law sitting on both sides of the main hall, Zheng Ruo glanced quickly, most of them were sisters from the mansion.The owner's wife's surname is Liu, she has a long face, but her chin is a bit sharp, giving people a mean feeling.Standing behind her on the left and right sides were two women who were younger than her, both of them were of superior appearance, they were the concubines of the Patriarch.

Zheng Ruo took off his wooden clogs, wore white socks, walked two steps closely, and made a big gift in front of Mrs. Liu.

"Ah Ruo greets Madam."

"Get up quickly." Mrs. Liu seemed in a good mood, "Why are you so polite, this child?"

Xiangju immediately came over to help her up.

"Aying, this is the most beautiful and talented aunt in my house. Even Wang Jiulang is full of praise for her piano music. How about it, she can always win the hairpin of the glass phoenix Yu Fei in your hand, right? " Madam Liu took Zheng Ruo's hand and said to the woman sitting on the lower left with a smile.Zheng Ruo noticed that when she spoke, there was some disdain in her eyes.

It was only then that Zheng Ruo discovered that Xie Wanying had come.Among the families in western Liaoning, Xie's family has the deepest foundation. Although Zheng's family can barely be considered a famous family, they are nothing in the eyes of Xie's family.Today, Xie Wanying came to visit as a guest, no wonder Mrs. Liu was so happy, it was an extremely honorable thing.

However, the words she just said were not well-intentioned.That's like putting her on fire.She looked around casually, and as expected, Zheng Wan stared at her angrily.With that appearance, if she had a whip in her hand, she might have already thrown it over.

"Seventh sister, the last time I caught a glimpse of the busy city, my sister and I hit it off right away, and I miss it every day. Now I came here uninvited, sister don't blame me for being reckless." Xie Wanying smiled and took her hand, saying with infinite joy.After saying this, the other sisters-in-law looked at Zheng Ruo with both envy and jealousy.

The visitor is not good.

Zheng Ruo also looked at her with a smile, "Ruo, don't dare."

Xie Wanying said to Mrs. Liu, "Mrs. Liu, I have admired Ah Ruo for a long time. I will give this phoenix Yufei glass hairpin to Ah Ruo." She inserted an expensive hairpin into Zheng Ruo's hair In the bun.Taking two steps back, she took a look and said, "Look, you are so beautiful, A Ruo, A Ruo, you are so beautiful. Even I can't compare it to myself. Mrs. Liu, it was right that A Ying didn't send out the hairpin just now. Yes. Look at this hairpin, on A Ruo's head, the phoenix seems to be flying, as if it was specially made for A Ruo."

At this time, one of Xie Wanying's maids presented a brocade box to Mrs. Liu.Xie Wanying spoke at the right time, "Yu Fei only has one Phoenix, and A Ying gave it to A Ruo. There is also a jade hairpin in A Ying's hand, Madam Liu please accept it."

"A Ying is really polite." Madam Liu opened the brocade box politely.It was a butterfly tassel hairpin. Jade was a fine jade, and the workmanship was exquisite. Mrs. Liu glanced at the dazzling glass hairpin on Zheng Ruo's head, and her face sank a little.Compared with the one on her head, it's not a bit worse.

Zheng Ruo didn't know what they said just now, presumably Xie Wanying was playing a game with Phoenix Yufei's hairpin as a prize.And none of the sister-in-laws present here can win this hairpin.Why after she came, Madam Liu didn't say the reason, and Xie Wanying didn't say anything, and just gave herself the hairpin?
Although Xie Wanying's words were affectionate, they were also extremely beautiful.It sounded like she was praising herself, but she understood that she was going to make herself a target.

Everyone knows Sima Zhaozhi's heart by giving him a priceless hairpin first, and then giving Mrs. Liu a jade hairpin that is several grades worse than Fenghuang Yufei.She looked at Xie Wanying in confusion.I haven't offended her, so why does she want to use a soft knife against herself everywhere?

Xie Wanying smiled at her with a smug smile on her lips.

Zheng Wan and Zheng Ru, who were sitting on the right, looked at the priceless phoenix Yufei hairpin on Zheng Ruo's head, feeling envious and furious.

"Seventh Sister, with your status, I'm afraid it's not suitable for you to wear such a precious thing?" Zheng Wan couldn't help but stab her.

Zheng Ruo originally wanted to take it off and return it to Xie Wanying, but after hearing Zheng Wan's words, she didn't take it instead.She, Xie Wanying, had plenty of money, and because she was excluded, it was not a bad idea to accept her as a hairpin.

Xie Wanying giggled and said, "You deserve it, you deserve it. Maybe, in the future, when you and I meet Ah Ruo, we will all pay you some respect."
