In the yard, Yueniang pursed her lips tightly.
Zheng Liu looked Yue Niang up and down, raised his chin and asked, "Do you know who I am?"
Yue Niang responded: "I know."
She has never met Zheng Liu, but she still knows that those who come are not good and those who are good will not come.
The young woman who came to the door had her hair combed like a woman's, and she had such an air of grandeur in her gestures...
Presumably, he was also from Gonghou Bofu.
The only young woman with such a background who would come to her small courtyard would be the young master's newly married wife.
It should be responded to, but there is no redundant expression.
Zheng Liu couldn't help but be stunned: "Now that you know it, you just stand like this?"
She originally thought that the outsiders who could win over people were all very clever, but why couldn't she win over the one she met today.
It's just a candle.
"Do you want me to pay you respects?" Yue Niang raised her eyes, "I thought you would look down on people like me paying you respects."
Zheng Liu was speechless.
It seems that this is indeed the case.
If she accepted Yue Niang's gift, wouldn't she have given this outer room dignity?
But as soon as he stepped in, Zheng Liu felt very uncomfortable with such a soft nail.
She dares to make trouble, scold, and torment, but she really doesn't know how to deal with soft nails.
Aunt Su accompanied Zheng Liu over. Seeing that she didn't get the favor, she was very anxious and pushed her arm gently.
Zheng Liu asked her to remind her, quickly cheered up, and strode into the house.
She didn't care about Yue Niang and just went into the room to look around.
There weren't many ornaments on the shelves, which looked very shabby.
There is a row of clothes hanging in the cabinet, only a few pieces are newly made, and the rest can be seen from the color and color of the materials that they were there before entering Beijing. This kind of clothes has never been popular in Beijing.
There are several pieces of men's clothing nearby, which Liu Xun should have put here.
The furniture used and the tea sets on the table are extremely simple.
Yue Niang followed Zheng Liu step by step.
As an outsider, it is not uncommon for a new grandma to cause trouble.
Yue Niang also knows that this will happen sooner or later.
But she didn't expect that Zheng Liu didn't make any noise or fuss after he arrived. Instead, he checked and looked at each room.
That scrutinizing look and the disdain in it really made her unhappy.
She knew who she was, and her daily expenses for food and clothing were not bad in this market. But in the eyes of Zheng Liu, who was born in a noble family, the difference was obvious.
Just this straightforward level difference...
It would be better if Zheng Liu came up and slapped her twice, which would make her feel less uncomfortable.
Yue Niang took a deep breath and steadied her voice: "Do you have any instructions for coming here?"
Zheng Liu glanced at her, then held on to Nanny Su's hand and walked outside.
As she walked away, she spoke to Aunt Su without hesitation.
"She does have a enchanting look on her face. Did you use a pen to mark that mole?"
"I have already committed myself to being a foreigner. I thought I was very capable, but the result is really not that good. These clothes are too hard to use, aren't they?"
"It's true that Liu Xun has taken care of everything but doesn't give him anything good."
"Ultimately, it's Liu Xun's lack of knowledge that allowed him to win over such an incompetent person. If he had seen more powerful prostitutes, his family might have been emptied out."
"It doesn't matter if it's not powerful, at least it doesn't cost a few coins."
These words were not meant for Mother Su, they were all directed at Yue Niang from beginning to end.
Yue Niang followed Zheng Liu, clutching the handkerchief tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.
She was indeed not a serious person, but she followed the young master out of admiration and love, and she never had any thoughts of being greedy for money.
What she said to the young master was true. As long as she had a small courtyard to live in, she was not hungry, and she could see the young master from time to time, that was enough for her.
Thinking like this, Yueniang held back her tears.
Zheng Liu was hostile to her, and what the enemy said was of course meant to hurt her heart.
She doesn't need to show her sincerity to Zheng Liu, it's enough for the young master to know.
Zheng Liu kept her pace and said so much. When she arrived at the courtyard gate and Yueniang didn't see any violent reaction, she couldn't bear it any longer.
Turning around, Zheng Liu reached out and clamped Yue Niang's chin, forcing Yue Niang to raise her head.
Then, the other hand rubbed Yue Niang's mole hard.
"Hey," she let go of her hand and sneered, "So you didn't point with a pen? Then your life will be really hard."
After saying these words, Zheng Liu motioned to Nanny Su to open the courtyard door and walked out proudly.
As soon as the master and servant left, the nanny who had been hiding aside came out and closed the courtyard door with three steps and two steps.
Then, she looked at Yueniang worriedly: "Girl..."
Yue Niang's tears suddenly fell down.
Zheng Liu's two blows were so hard that the corners of her eyes hurt terribly.
Mammy hugged Yueniang and comforted her with a soft voice: "Girl is doing the right thing. Don't quarrel with her or make trouble with her. Once we seem to fight back, she will only get more motivated. Noisy and trouble can't help her. , I can only hold back, if you see that she is no longer interested, then leave by yourself."
Yue Niang bit her lip and nodded while crying.
When she was tired of crying, she took care of Yue Niang and took a nap.
In the afternoon, there was another knock on the door.
Grandma was frightened. Could it be that the ancestor didn't let off enough anger before and came back again?
Without removing the latch, grandma opened the courtyard door a small crack and looked outside with squinted eyes.
Standing outside was an unfamiliar woman.
She is well-dressed and far above the nanny beside Zheng Liu. She has a round face and a cheerful look, and she looks like she has a kind temper.
Grandma thought for a while and opened the door: "Sister is..."
Standing outside the door was Grandma Wang. She said, "Our master wants to say a few words to Yue Niang, and a sedan has been prepared at the entrance of the alley."
When the grandma heard this, her face turned pale and she said in surprise: "Could it be His Royal Highness..."
Aunt Wang looked shocked, but in her heart she admired Lin Yunyan greatly.
The princess asked her to just say "master" without mentioning anything more specific, just to see the nanny's reaction.
Good guy, the word "Prince" came out of his mouth, which shows that Yue Niang and her nanny are well aware of His Highness the Prince's thoughts.
The princess is the princess, and you can hit the vital point with just one try.
Think about that prince again...
Prince Jingui, why do you always look at other people's outer rooms?
After sizing it up, I started to have my thoughts on the girl from the Jin family who looked somewhat similar to Yue Niang.
When she thought about the kind of person the current prince was, Grandma Wang felt uncomfortable all over.
I can’t afford to offend!
She is full of stories and has nowhere to tell them!
Thinking this, Aunt Wang said, "How come it's all about the prince? Our master is someone else. You don't have to be afraid of anything bad happening. It's up to you whether you want to sit in the sedan or not. Just make an appointment at the front." The Tianzi Room in the teahouse at the corner of the street is doing very well. As long as you don't yell, the shopkeeper will rush in and there are so many customers. Our master is a decent man and will not ruin his reputation. "
After saying that, Grandma Wang turned around and left with a smile.
The grandma closed the courtyard door, thought for a while, and finally entered the house.
Yue Niang had already woken up and asked softly: "Who came just now?"
Mammy said: "Girl, do you want to go?"
…
Tianziyajian.
A pot of hot tea, melon seeds and peanuts and a few plates of snacks.
After hearing Nanny Wang's reply, Lin Yunyan grabbed a handful of melon seeds and gave them to her: "Mom, I'll read for a while. The storyteller down here is pretty good."
Wan Yue asked Lin Yunyan hesitantly: "Tell me, will Yue Niang come?"
"If she is smart, she will come." Lin Yunyan said.
Wan Yue blinked her eyes and wanted to ask, "What if I'm not smart?" When the words came to her lips, she thought about it first.
If you are not smart, then don't come.
If you do business with stupid people, you will lose a lot of money!
After waiting for less than two quarters of an hour, someone knocked on the door.
Grandma Wang got up and opened the door.
Outside the door, it was Yue Niang's master and servant.
Grandma looked inside and saw a young man sitting at the table with a boy standing behind her. She felt very unsure.
Yue Niang took a closer look and vaguely noticed something was wrong. She mustered up the courage to walk closer and take a closer look, and her heart dropped by a large margin.
Both of them are women disguised as men.
Since it's all a girl's house, she doesn't have to worry about anything bad happening to her.
As for the identity of the other party...
She didn't dare to guess, she just looked much more noble than Zheng Liudu.
Lin Yunyan asked Yue Niang to sit down: "Looking at it this way, she does look very much like our sister from the in-laws' family."
Yue Niang was stunned.
Lin Yunyan asked again: "Did Zheng Liu find you this morning?"
Yue Niang took a deep breath: "You are..."
"Sincerity's Mansion Lin Yunyan."
Yue Niang was surprised.
The princess was looking for her, so what was she going to do?
Lin Yunyan did not go around in circles with Yue Niang, and said directly: "Zheng Liu and I have always had a grudge.
Originally, after Zhangpingyuan, it was time for the well and the river to go away, but who told her to marry Liu Xun.
The Duke's Mansion does not have any contact with the Liu family, but I am very worried about Mrs. Xu.
Mrs. Xu has a pure mind and a kind person. She knows about your existence, and she will also discuss your matter with Liu Xun and Zheng Liu in the future.
But Zheng Liu won't tolerate you, she will still hate Wujiwu and blame Mrs. Xu.
I can't reach out to interfere with the affairs of the Liu family. Even if I get married to the Duke of Guo later, I won't be able to interfere with the Liu family.
Therefore, I can only come to discuss with you whether you want to insist on fighting Zheng Liu to the end, or it is better to avoid getting Mrs. Xu into trouble with her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law over this matter. "
Yue Niang was stunned.
In her mind, Zheng Liu should have been the one to persuade her to "choose a path."
But he didn't expect that the princess would show up.
"Since you care about Mrs. Xu so much, Mrs. Xu knows that you..."
Halfway through Yue Niang's words, she saw Lin Yunyan smiling and raising a finger to her mouth, as if to silence her, so Yue Niang had no choice but to shut up.
Lin Yunyan then said again: "You don't have to think about that. I'm just telling you that those who know the current affairs are heroes. You have already lost the opportunity. How can you compare with Zheng Liu."
Yue Niang's face turned pale: "What's the first opportunity? The truth comes first, the truth comes first, the young master and I..."
"You're naive, aren't you?" Lin Yunyan still smiled, "You have no status, status is the advantage. You have already met Zheng Liu, just imagine, when you have a dispute with her, who do you think will win?
You can be patient and leave the situation to Liu Xun, but who do you think Liu Xun will turn to in the end?
Can he control Zheng Liu's crazy temper? "
Yue Niang lowered her head and did not answer.
"Liu Xun is also ruthless," Lin Yunyan said. "My sister, who is somewhat similar to you, almost got someone to plot her. Who do you think is plotting her, and who do you want to sacrifice her to?"
The word "Xian" made Yue Niang's body get goosebumps.
Who could it be?
It must be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Maybe some people want to climb high, but she doesn't want to have anything to do with the prince.
She knew that the prince looked after her and would not really attack someone like her, but she never thought that there was a girl who looked like her...
Thinking of this, Yue Niang was excited.
Her thoughts were all taken away by the princess, and she believed whatever the princess said.
can not be like this!
"Aren't you worried that I will tell the young master?" Yue Niang gritted her teeth and asked.
"You say whatever you want," Lin Yunyan smiled, "He didn't do anything, so he got angry and even got kicked by the prince. He most likely knew that I was the one who ruined his business, but he couldn't find any trouble with me. You tell him later and ask him if he can come for revenge."
Yue Niang's face turned pale.
No man wants a woman to see something beyond his power.
Got kicked by the prince? You know it's the princess who's doing bad things but you can't do anything about it?
If she walked around and told the young master...
Where should I put my face?
Lin Yunyan looked at her expression and knew that she had clearly thought about the relationship.
"I have no conflict of interest with you," she said, "I am just telling you this to save Mrs. Xu some worries.
What about Liu Xun? That's a matter for men. I'm going to do it for you. The Duke of Guo will probably not be happy, and it will also hurt Mrs. Xu's heart.
I'm only interested in Zheng Liu, she's so awesome when she's crazy. "
Yue Niang lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly: "The princess used me as a knife."
Lin Yunyan sighed: "Being able to be used as a knife means that it is useful. Those who are useful will not be treated as abandoned. I use you as a knife. I have never thought of harming you, but will you be used as a knife by them in the end? I say no." Yes, you should think about it yourself. If I were you, I would leave an extra path for myself."
Yueniang walked out of the private room in a daze.
Aunt Wang closed the door, turned around and said to Lin Yunyan: "Princess, is this possible?
I'm not questioning what you said. Everything you said makes sense, but this matter between men and women cannot be settled by reason alone.
Seeing her like that, this servant has deep feelings for Mr. Liu? If you ask the man to coax you back, you might be able to..."
Lin Yunyan smiled.
She was still sure.
No matter how hard you fight for the outer room, your mentality will change after you see the main wife who is looking for you.
Sincerity is exchanged for sincerity.
This is why she waited until Zheng Liu went to Narcissus Alley before looking for Yue Niang.
On the other side, Yueniang returned to her small courtyard, sat at the table, and was lost in thought for a while.
"Mommy, what should I do..." she asked.
Mammy patted her back gently and said, "The princess has her own plans, but one thing she said is absolutely right, the girl must leave an extra path for herself.
Anyway, the princess didn't let you take the initiative to cause any conflicts. She just handed you a branch first to see if there is any chance of joining forces in the future.
Just make peace with her, don't offend her and continue this path.
If the young master is looking after you in everything, then the new grandma can't stir up trouble, so you should just pretend that it doesn't happen. If the young master hurts your heart, you won't be unable to move even an inch. "
In this room, Yueniang was feeling anxious; in that room, Liu Xun was dumbfounded as he listened to Zheng Liu talk about what he had seen and heard in Shuixian Hutong.
