Liu Ruolan was working as a female celebrity in the house, and Sister-in-law Wang came in with a smile.
"Madam, the Cheng family has sent someone to bring you something. They are waiting at the front now."
When Liu Ruolan wanted to see her husband, she had to tell her mother-in-law first.
As soon as Grandma Xie heard that it was a servant sent by the Cheng family to deliver the things, she guessed that it was arranged by Cheng Sanlang or Xie Rongzhao.
Grandma Xie didn't care much about this. Anyway, she knew that she wouldn't get much glory, so she happily sent Liu Ruolan to the outer courtyard.
Liu Ruolan took a few copper plates as a reward for Chang Sheng, while Sister-in-law Wang stood behind her with a smile on her face, holding a box in her hand.
"Madam, you are so lucky. This pearl hairpin belongs to you and your future uncle."
Liu Ruolan had already read the letter written by Xie Rongzhao and learned that the pearl was a birthday gift from Cheng Jingzhou and had someone process it into a pearl hairpin. Naturally, she was happy to know that her daughter was thinking of her.
"Madam, there is also a box of cream in here, said to be for you to wipe your face with."
Liu Ruolan glanced at it. This was the first time she had seen this kind of cream. It was probably not any worse than what Madam sent her last time.
As soon as I apply it, the fragrance is light and elegant, and it feels very smooth on my hands.
"This is a good choice."
Sister-in-law Wang smiled and helped her put away the things: "Miss, you are filial. You know how to bring good things to honor you at such a young age. Your good days are still to come."
Liu Ruolan smiled, but she was a little distracted.
Previously, my mother-in-law and several brothers and sisters-in-law said that they would help her ask a famous doctor to see her, but they didn't know what to do.
She knew that her husband was going on a study trip and it was estimated that he would not turn around in two or three months, so she thought it would be good to take this opportunity to take care of herself.
It's just that it's been so long, and I don't know if there's any news about famous doctors.
"Madam, I just noticed that Miss Lan, the eldest daughter-in-law, is poking her head over our place a lot. Do you think so?"
"Don't pay attention. She wants to live with Cheng's family. Unfortunately, Cheng Sanlang obviously doesn't like her, and he doesn't intend to talk to her. But I heard that my sister-in-law has been very prosperous recently, but what news have I heard?"
"I heard that the uncle has been traveling to town frequently recently. I said earlier that he had to go out for a trip and it would probably take five or six days to come back. However, I was very happy when I saw the eldest lady. Apparently something happy has happened."
Liu Ruolan had some concerns in her mind. Her eldest uncle was away for five or six days, but Mrs. Gao was not only not worried, but also very happy. This showed that good news would come back.
The things that would make Mrs. Gao happy are, firstly, getting money, and secondly, it is very likely to be related to her children.
The eldest son's two sons are now studying. At this age and the current month, they are definitely not happy because of the two nephews' children's exams.
Then, there can only be good news for Xie Ronglan.
After all, she is the only one who can talk about marriage now.
Liu Ruolan shook her head. It was not her family's business, so she shouldn't take it too seriously, lest her mother-in-law catch her in the wrong and scold her again.
Xie Rongzhao gave Mrs. Cheng a box of cream, which made Mrs. Cheng extremely happy.
She touched Xie Rongzhao's head and said with a satisfied look on her face: "You have to be a daughter to be a caring little cotton-padded jacket. Look, I gave birth to three brothers, and none of them bothered to buy me any cream."
Cheng Jingzhou on the side twitched his lips slightly, thinking that your youngest son might not even be able to leave the house now, right?
Mrs. Cheng was happy. The atmosphere in the second room was good, and the servants were more dedicated to their work. After all, they all knew that the mistress had a good family background and was not short of money. Once the errands were done, the money alone could support the family.
Cheng Yuanyuan was grounded. Because she is young, she lives with her sisters.
Cheng Yuanyuan lived directly with her mother-in-law when she was a child. After she was five years old, she was placed in the current courtyard.
There are a total of four young ladies of the Cheng family living here. Because Cheng Yuanyuan is the direct descendant and the most favored, she lives in the best east end room, with a little girl at her side.
Previously, she had three servants at her disposal, but something happened, the nanny was disposed of, and the two girls were also taken to the village. The current little girl was bought later.
Although Mrs. Cheng San no longer blames her daughter, she can't get close to her for the time being.
Besides, the old lady had warned her not to see Cheng Yuanyuan again, so she could only send a servant over every once in a while.
Cheng Yuanyuan's current girl is a bit dull, young, and inexperienced in many things. She has only been in the house for a few days, but she has been scolded a lot.
"You're so stupid! Don't you know that this young lady doesn't drink this kind of thing? I'm just looking at this young lady who is in such a state of despair that she dares to use anything dirty and smelly to deal with me."
Cheng Yuanyuan is young and doesn't drink much tea. What she usually uses the most is sherbet.
Of course, this thing doesn’t happen every day.
It would be good to have a few pots a month.
But today, the third lady met with someone in the big kitchen. As soon as she brought a pot to Cheng Yuanyuan, she disliked the taste.
The little girl didn't understand. She simply thought that the thing was broken or not to the young lady's taste, so she hesitated to go to the big kitchen to get another pot.
Cheng Yuanyuan became even more angry when she saw that she was still standing here and not speaking.
"You are a dead man! Don't you know how to change the pot? Also, what do you usually do? I ask you to pick up my meal, but not once is it to my liking. I think you just don't want to make me feel better! "
This crime is too big.
The little girl couldn't bear it and was so frightened that she knelt down.
"My apologies, Miss. I don't know what Miss likes to eat, so please let me know."
How could Cheng Yuanyuan make it clear?
Could she say that she was depressed and upset just because she had been locked up here for so many days, and she just wanted to get angry?
"You useless thing, get out of here!"
Cheng Yuanyuan couldn't expect a little girl to stand up for her, but she was really angry. After walking around the room a few times, she couldn't come up with a good idea.
At this time, she missed the days when her nanny was by her side. She helped with everything.
It's good now, I'm grounded, I can't go out to learn the rules, I can't go to class, I have to copy some scriptures at home every day, I'm really pissed off.
"Get in here!"
Cheng Yuanyuan called the little girl back again, "Go and beg my mother-in-law and tell her that my life is miserable. Please go to the old lady to help me and talk to my father about my current situation." No matter how hard it is, I just want them to feel sorry for me so that I can get out as soon as possible."
Cheng Yuanyuan was afraid that the little girl wouldn't understand, so she added: "You have to think clearly, you are my girl. If I can go out, your status in the house will naturally be different. No one in the house will be affected by it." How much face can I give you? Do you understand?"
