Mrs. Li entered the house with Li Yuyan following closely behind, and then saluted Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang stopped and let the two of them get up, then turned around and ordered tea to be served.
Mrs. Wang took a look at Li Yuyan. Li Yuyan was tall and tall, and her appearance was somewhat similar to Mrs. Li. Although she was not a very good color, she had fair skin and was young and beautiful.
At this time, she was wearing a blue waist-length skirt embroidered with willow branches. She had a slender waist and long legs. She was holding a white handkerchief in her hand, a silver bracelet on her wrist, and tassels on her hair. The bun is tied with two willow leaf hairpins.
It looks a bit elegant and dignified, but also attractive.
Mrs. Wang immediately nodded and asked her, "Are you Yuyan?"
Li Yuyan calmly stepped forward and replied: "As for Madam, my little girl is the right one."
Wang said: "Since you are here, treat this place as your own home. Don't be rigid. Who did you bring here? From the third family, which yard do you think is more appropriate?!"
Li Yuyan said: "Yuyan came in a hurry and brought a maid Cha'er with her."
Wang said: "Then we should arrange a few more people."
"Mother-in-law, there's no need for a courtyard..." Ms. Li hesitated for a moment, then slowly said, "My daughter-in-law is thinking that the princess's Guanyuan is big enough, so there are two rooms available for her to live in." That’s it, let her study with the princess.”
"Besides, two girls of about the same age also have a caregiver, right..."
The further Li spoke, the softer her voice became. She didn't know why, but she felt a little uneasy.
After hearing what she said, Mrs. Wang's smile froze slightly, then she patted Su Luo's hand and asked her to sit on the side, and then asked Ms. Li: "Is this what you think?!"
Mrs. Li paused for a moment and was about to nod when she saw Li Yuyan step forward and kneel down and said, "In reply to Madam, this is what Yuyan begged my aunt for."
"Yuyan, Yuyan knows that her status is low. The princess is the legitimate daughter of a high family. She has a grandmother like Madam to teach her how to urinate. Yuyan is very envious. Yuyan just wants to learn more by the princess's side, so as not to worry about it in the future. a shame."
"If there is anything wrong, please forgive me, madam."
Mrs. Wang patted her knees gently, and then said: "You get up now. There is no need to forgive me."
"The princess' education is indeed the best in the house, but the princess is about to get engaged, and she has to learn to manage the house, organize the dowry, and embroider the wedding dress when she has free time. I'm afraid she won't have time to teach you anything. "
"Besides, the girls from the Duke's residence will also come to accompany her. If you want to study, just spend more time with your aunt."
Mrs. Li's face turned pale, and her hand holding the handkerchief tightened.
What Wang said was to name Su Wan, not her biological daughter. Su Wan could not be bothered with her natal family's affairs. Her maternal ancestor belonged to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, not the Li family. She could just worry about the Li family's affairs herself. , it really makes no sense for her stepdaughter to worry about it.
Li Yuyan's hand holding the handkerchief tightened, and her head lowered further: "Yuyan noted it down."
Mrs. Wang felt a little bored, so she stopped and said: "Okay, let's go down first. If you, the third child, see an empty yard, just tell Mei Gu and send someone to sort it out. There has been something going on in the house recently." Duo, since she is your niece, just take more care of her."
Ms. Li lowered her head and said yes, then left with Su Luo and Li Yuyan. Ms. Wang looked at the backs of the three of them, and then sighed.
The person waiting at the side asked: "Why is Madam sighing? Isn't that Li's daughter inappropriate?!"
"It's just some small thoughts." Wang said, "Let's forget about what happened before. I'm afraid they won't look down on it."
Wang agreed to Li's request because she actually wanted to see if this Li's daughter was suitable and she was willing, she could be a matchmaker for her natal grandnephew.
After Duke Jinning was granted the title of Marquis, the Wang family did not forget about their natal family. They gave some money to prepare family property in the big city nearest to their hometown, and asked the county magistrate to take care of it.
It's a pity that neither her parents nor her brothers have read books. They have been working in the fields for many years. This is how they got rich. It was only in her nephew's generation that they spent money to send them to academies to study and gain knowledge. I got some words and took care of the family business.
In her great-nephew's generation, there were two or three good scholars. Wang was determined to find a good marriage for them. After hearing Li talk about the Li family's daughter, she had an idea.
Although the Li family is not an official, after all, she has the name of an imperial merchant, and she is considered a very good match. In the future, she will try to help her, and when her grandnephew is in high school, she can stay in the imperial city if she has no choice but to do so.
Now that I think about it, Li's daughter might want to marry high and look down on her grandnephew.
Mrs. Wang's eyes flashed, Ms. Li was a good person. This daughter of Li's came to live in the house temporarily, and it was not just a matter of a day or two. It was good for her. She also wanted to put her in Wanyuan and let Su Wan stay with her. , she is done being a good person, and Su Wan is the one who is exhausted.
What a good plan.
Su Wan is following the weaving and embroidery process to choose patterns for embroidered shoes. The days have been getting hotter and hotter recently. She needs to make two pairs of shoes to wear. Xiao Pei is helping. Xiao Sang is not good at needlework and is holding a fan in the yard. Fanning, I walked around and looked at the flowers planted by Su Wan.
At this time, a servant woman was carrying things to the door of Wanyuan, saying that she wanted to move them into the house. The little maid guarding the yard disagreed, and a quarrel broke out between the two parties.
"As I said, it was our aunt, your third young lady, who asked us to move our things here. From now on, my girl will move here."
"No, if I haven't asked the princess for permission, I will never allow others to enter."
The little maid is not stupid. If the Wang family sends word that someone wants to live here, she really doesn't dare to stop it, but it's the Li family!
Who is Mr. Li? !
Her master's stepmother!
It’s not okay for the Third Young Madam to stuff her natal niece here, let alone her master, the Madam wouldn’t agree to it.
It is shameless for Third Young Madam not to entertain her own guests but to let her master serve them!
"Carry it away, carry it away! Carry it away quickly!"
Xiao Sang walked to the door, fanning herself, and saw a few people standing in a stalemate. When the little maid saw Xiao Sang, her whole face turned red with anxiety: "Sister Xiao Sang, you are finally here."
Xiao Sang asked: "What's going on? The noise here has alarmed the princess. The princess is kind and doesn't care about you, but we are not good-tempered."
The leader was a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed simply. After hearing the words, she said: "This sister, my sister's name is Cha'er. The third young lady's maiden girl, Yuyan, is my mistress. The third young lady has spoken. My girl moved in with the princess, and this little girl stopped me from entering, how could she be reasonable?!"
Hearing this, Xiao Sang paused with the fan in his hand and sneered: "You said the third young lady arranged it?!"
"Exactly."
Xiao Sang fanned himself and chuckled: "I'm surprised, when did the Third Young Madam get involved in Wanyuan's business?!"
Do you think her master is a little girl who is manipulated by her stepmother at will and has no one to support her? !
