The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 14
Later, Minchun, the eldest girl serving by Mrs. Xiao's side, came and invited the three young masters to see Mrs. Xiao.As for the girls, they continued to wait.

Xiao Mingying whispered to Xiao Mingpei: "Sixth sister, you were too impulsive before, and it's not like you don't know Mr. Song's temperament, I'm afraid you already have a grudge against you."

"What are you afraid of? Maybe I'm still afraid of him." Xiao Mingpei said indifferently.

Xiao Mingyu sat quietly at the side, listening to the two whispering, while thinking about Xiao Mingxuan and Aunt Jiang.Xiao Mingxuan ran away when he saw her, and didn't even come to greet Mrs. Xiao, but he was guilty?Then what is she guilty of?As for Aunt Jiang's life experience, there is still some blood.The Jiang family has a little relationship with the Tan family and the Xiao family.

Aunt Jiang is the concubine's daughter of the first house of the Jiang family, and the wife of the third house of the Jiang family is Tan's sister.As for Mrs. Jiang, she was a daughter of the Zhang family, while Xiao Mingyu's eldest aunt, the eldest daughter of Mrs. Xiao, married into the Zhang family.As for Aunt Jiang's mother-in-law Mei, there is another lawsuit.

Mei's father was kind to Mr. Jiang's family. When Mei's father went out when he was young, he once saved Mr. Jiang's life.Later, in order to repay their kindness, the Jiang family did not dislike the Mei family's ordinary background, so they married the Mei family.Unexpectedly, by the time the children grow up, the Jiang family will not be what it used to be, let alone a mere Mei family who can climb high.Mrs. Jiang was thinking about retiring the engagement, but for some reason, she even persuaded Mr. Jiang.It's just that Mei's father passed away before it was mentioned, and Mei's three-year filial piety will inevitably delay the flowering period, which just gave the Jiang family a reason to withdraw the engagement.Unexpectedly, the Mei family was gentle on the outside, but strong on the inside. She said that the Jiang family was going to divorce, so she hanged herself at the gate of the Jiang family, and let everyone poke the Jiang family's back.

The Jiang family can only compromise if they want to be famous, but Mrs. Jiang said that it is fine for the Mei family to enter the Jiang family, but they cannot be a regular wife, at most a noble concubine.Everyone thought that Mrs. Mei would not agree, but who would have thought that Mrs. Mei nodded in agreement.Outsiders realized after thinking about it that the Mei family had a heavy burden and their old father died, and the financial situation of the Mei family was even more worrying.With Mei's background, even if she is a wife, she can't suppress the people below, let alone those sisters-in-law, no one will obey her.Her position as the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law is destined to be unstable.Rather than being driven out in despair at the end, it is better to be a concubine from the beginning.Although being a concubine doesn't sound good, at least it can solve the difficulties of the Mei family.As a result, Aunt Jiang's brother and sister also changed from concubine to concubine.

As for why Aunt Jiang came to Xiao's house to be a concubine, it couldn't be separated from Aunt Jiang's own plan, and it couldn't be separated from Aunt Zhang blowing in Mrs. Xiao's ear.It is said that Aunt Zhang didn't like the Han family from the beginning to the end, and she got Aunt Jiang to be a concubine in the fifth room, maybe it was to add trouble to the Han family.

Xiao Mingxuan came late, as soon as she came, the old lady Xiao came to give orders, saying that she was out of energy and would not see them today.Let them go back first, the weather is cold, so there is no need to run here every day.Wait until the old lady's body is well, and then come to say hello.

Xiao Mingyu smiled, obviously the arrival of Sima Yunfei and Song Zijing put the old lady Xiao in a good mood.Before, Mrs. Xiao never said that it was too cold to ask them not to come to say hello.Xiao Mingyu held a small brass hand stove in both hands, and followed Xiao Mingxuan out of the wing.

The four sisters broke up outside the Fushou Hall, Xiao Mingxuan pulled Xiao Mingyu, and asked gossipingly, "Did Song Zijing have a quarrel with Xiao Mingpei?"

"Fourth sister's news is fast."

Hsiao Mingxuan smiled inexplicably.

Xiao Mingyu remembered what Song Zijing said, and felt that maybe Xiao Mingxuan knew something, so he asked: "Fourth sister, has my sister offended cousin Song before?"

"What's the matter, is he embarrassing you?"

Xiao Mingyu shook his head with a smile, "I can't say I'm embarrassed, but my attitude is a bit strange."

"He's a small chicken, but it's just a few inappropriate words, he really remembered it." Xiao Mingxuan looked disdainful, and she also looked down upon Song Zijing.

Xiao Mingyu frowned slightly, was it just a verbal conflict?

The two sisters walked towards Zhiwei Courtyard, Xiao Mingxuan's sharp eyes saw a sneaky woman in front of her at a glance. "Where is who, stop for me." He pulled Xiao Mingyu and walked over quickly.The woman was stopped and had to turn around.

Xiao Mingxuan sneered, "I don't know who it is, it turned out to be Nanny Ying who is beside Aunt Jiang. Nanny Ying is not serving Aunt Jiang, what are you doing here? You are sneaky, are you doing something shady? Tell me honestly, or the board will serve you."

Nurse Ying smiled awkwardly, "The fourth girl wronged the servant girl. The servant girl just responded to my aunt's request to care about the old lady's physical condition. Afterwards, she stopped by the second gate and chatted with the old sister who guards the gate."

Xiao Mingxuan didn't believe it, but there was no evidence.Hesitating about how to handle Nanny Ying.

Xiao Mingyu smiled, looking very innocent, "Nurse Mammy was going to care about the situation of the old lady, it seems that Auntie is really filial."

Nanny Ying laughed and answered a few words.

Xiao Mingyu said again: "Mother Ying came back from the second gate, why did she take this route? This is not the way to the second gate, does Mammy have other things to do?"

When Xiao Mingxuan was reminded, he immediately glared, "You old woman, I was almost deceived by you, saying, what shameful thing did you do?"

"I'm wronged. Aren't slaves just stealing and being lazy, how can they do anything shameful."

Xiao Mingyu looked down at Nanny Ying's coarse cloth shoes, "Mommy has walked a lot today, and her shoes are all wet. Even the corners of her clothes are dirty."

"Yes, yes." Nanny Ying rolled her eyes, wondering what she was thinking.

Xiao Mingxuan found that it was better to leave this matter to Xiao Mingyu, so she didn't speak, but stood aside to cheer Xiao Mingyu, and threatened Madam Ying by the way.

Xiao Mingyu laughed again: "I heard early this morning that someone poured a basin of water on the ground in the big room, and several people have fallen. Could it be that Nanny Ying also fell over there?"

"No, no, no, Seventh Miss misunderstood, how could the servants go to the eldest room. The eldest room is different from our fifth room, so the slaves can still tell the difference." Nurse Ying waved her hands again and again, categorically denying it.But just because he denied it too quickly made people suspicious.

Xiao Mingyu smiled innocently, "So it's not going to the eldest room. I thought the nanny was going to visit the eldest sister on behalf of my aunt and the eighth younger sister. So it's not. The fourth sister, the eldest sister was beaten in such a cold day. Let’s go and visit someday.”

Xiao Mingxuan stared at Xiao Mingyu with a serious face, but said nothing.

Xiao Mingyu didn't care too much, and said with a smile: "I've delayed Mammy for a while, don't mind Mammy."

"Don't mind, don't mind."

"The two of us sisters still want to hang around here, do you want to be together?" Xiao Mingyu asked politely.
