Chapter 551: Mrs. Xingguo Who Swallowed Her Anger
"Madam, our cousin is the daughter of the former Crown Prince Xingguo and Princess Qinghua. To put it bluntly, when Crown Prince Xingguo was still around, Duke Xingguo was just an idle young master, and Madam... was just Duke Xingguo. She is just an ordinary second lady, not to mention that even if we talk about it now, our cousin still has royal blood, so on this point, she is more noble than other ladies!"
Aunt Gao said with a sharp expression.
Mrs. Xingguo was ashamed and angry. She was indeed just an ordinary second lady at the beginning. As for the royal bloodline, how could she dare not respond? She held the tea cup tightly with her hand and suppressed the anger in her heart. She had to admit this. , the royal bloodline is greater than the sky.
"Don't worry, Grandma Gao, I will find the best yard for Wanru!" She had to swallow this, but she didn't dare not.
"Thank you madam for being so considerate. Our eldest princess will be very happy to know about it. Then please ask madam to take them to measure Piaoyun Courtyard. I heard that Piaoyun Courtyard is the best empty garden in the mansion. This The garden is nice, and it was originally used by my wife for my cousin to live in. It was only because someone wanted to harm my cousin and burn her to death that the garden was burned down. But now that the garden has been renovated, it naturally still belongs to my cousin, right? !”
Grandma Gao smiled and wiped the water stains on her hands with a handkerchief, her attitude was very amiable.
Mrs. Xingguo Gong turned to look at Shao Wanru, her eyes were serious, and she gritted her teeth and said: "This garden has not been built yet, many places have not been fully prepared, and it cannot be inhabited yet!"
It was prepared for her son. Although the layout inside was not as good as the previous one, it had been carefully prepared for more than two years. How could she let Shao Wanru get it in vain?
"It's okay to not be able to live in it temporarily. Madam, have you forgotten that my cousin hasn't come down from the mountain yet? Even with the current configuration, she can still live in it after she comes out of Yuhui Nunnery in half a year."
Aunt Gao seemed not to notice the way Mrs. Xingguo turned her head to glare at Shao Wanru, and continued to laugh.
"I'm afraid the Madam agrees with this. The Madam told me that it would be useful for keeping this yard very early. If I gave it to Wanru rashly, I'm afraid the Madam would be angry. She is sick now and can't bear it. If you are not angry at all, why don’t you wait for a while and the wife is in better health before talking about this matter?"
Mrs. Xingguo turned her head and said softly and sincerely.
This matter was pushed to the Mrs. Tai, and she couldn't refuse, but the Mrs. Tai could. Besides, the Mrs. Tai was still ill, so she would postpone today and discuss countermeasures with the Mrs. Tai next time.
"I heard that the Queen Mother is going to investigate the matter of our cousin being framed. If the Queen Mother is in good health, she will have to cooperate with the Queen Mother's investigation. I am afraid she has no time to care about such a small matter in the hospital, right? Besides, what happened before, the Queen Mother and The eldest princess is thinking about who is so malicious to her cousin, who wants to destroy her cousin wholeheartedly, and has a vicious heart. If the eldest princess finds someone, no matter who it is, even the prince My direct wife will never be lenient."
Aunt Gao's words were extremely gentle, but the meaning behind her words sent a chill down the back of Mrs. Xingguo. Does Princess Ruian mean that she must pursue this matter to the end?
On the surface, the affairs handled by the Madam are all done by the Madam herself, but in fact, like Shao Yanru, Mrs. Xingguo secretly has many promoters. Now, listen to what Aunt Gao said, and then look at Aunt Gao There was an almost gentle voice, and suddenly there was a chill in the vest.
Her heart trembled, she must not arouse the suspicion of the eldest princess at this time.
"This matter really needs to be troubled by the eldest princess. The madam is seriously ill, and I don't know much about it, so I have to trouble the eldest princess. As for the matters in the yard, I will arrange it for the madam first. I think the madam may be too. Just keep it for Wan Ru!" Mrs. Xingguo Gong's thoughts were changing and she immediately said with a smile on her face.
She called a woman and asked her to take the craftsman at the door to measure the house. At this time, she couldn't show any ill will towards Shao Wanru.
Shao Wanru raised his head slightly, and his eyes slid quietly over the friendly face of Mrs. Xingguo. Even though he knew that she was hypocritical, this face looked very friendly, as if she was sincere.
Her long eyelashes fluttered twice, and her watery eyes dropped down, landing on her feet. She saw that Mrs. Xingguo's feet were stretching slightly under her skirt from time to time. It was obvious that she was extremely angry and didn't even care about etiquette. I went to bed, but I had to comply with what Grandma Gao said.
The corners of her lips twitched slightly, "Very good, that's what it has to look like."
Seeing that Mrs. Xingguo had sent her mother-in-law down, Grandma Gao's smile became gentler. She asked about Mrs. Xingguo's health, and said that she had specially brought greetings from the eldest princess and some precious medicinal materials. Let Mrs. Tai take good care of herself. Once she is well, we can find out together who wanted to harm Shao Wanru and who put honey on her jewelry...
Mrs. Xingguo agreed to everything Grandma Gao said, but she felt weak in her heart. She felt hateful and annoyed but had no choice but to do anything. She was secretly frightened. Is the eldest princess holding on to this?
When the two of them were talking, Shao Wanru listened quietly without saying a word. If Mrs. Xingguo glanced at her occasionally, she would greet her with a gentle smile. This attitude made Mrs. Xingguo feel deeply in her heart. The bad breath cannot be swallowed or spit out, and the resentment is overwhelming.
She didn't believe that this bitch didn't know anything. She just came from the Princess Ruian's Mansion, and the Princess' Mansion sent someone to ask for the best yard for her. It was her favorite yard, and it was hers. It was planned to be reserved for the eldest son to get married. The hard work she had done before was ruined, which made her want to vomit blood. The hard work of the past two years was about to be ruined again, and the hatred was even more difficult to eliminate.
Shao Wanru looked at the uncontrollable resentment of Mrs. Xingguo with great calmness, and then she smiled like a hundred flowers blooming.
She and Mrs. Xingguo must not be able to coexist before, so why should she please her? No matter how much she tries to please her, this person will not be soft-hearted when it comes to taking his own life.
Then why would she bother herself?
She just wanted to make a strong comeback and let everyone understand that even though she was not a wife or liked by Duke Xingguo, no one could underestimate her given her identity.
It took a long time for the measuring craftsman to come back. After showing a sketch to Grandma Gao, Grandma Gao nodded, stood up and said goodbye.
Shao Wanru and Grandma Sheng took the place of Mrs. Xingguo and sent them to the gate.
"Miss Cousin, please go back first, and I will return to my old life!" Grandma Gao said with a smile at the gate.
"That sketch is good, but I don't know if it is accurate?" Shao Wanru said softly, "It would be more accurate if someone in the house could see it and sign it!"
Aunt Gao was a smart person, and she immediately thought of the meaning of these words, and secretly cheered for her cousin. Such a sweetheart with seven orifices, it seemed that she was negligent.
Smiling, he turned to look at Aunt Sheng: "Aunt Sheng, why don't you sign this, otherwise I'm afraid the eldest princess won't believe it."
Does this mean that the grandma in front of her is not as proud as she imagined in front of the eldest princess? She needs someone else to sign for approval before she can do something?
Aunt Sheng was disdainful in her heart. We all belong to the current generation. Although she is also a confidant of Duke Xingguo, she is still far inferior to the confidant of the eldest princess. Aunt Sheng is very concerned about the high mother who can exert pressure in front of Duke Xingguo. Grandma was jealous and envious at the same time. Now that she heard what Grandma Gao meant, she didn't seem to value her as much as she thought, and she couldn't help but feel a little proud.
He asked someone to bring him paper and pen, and he signed it on the spot as "Xingguo Gongfu", and also signed the date on the side at the request of Grandma Gao.
Aunt Gao politely thanked Aunt Sheng, then led the people from the eldest princess's residence into the carriage and drove away.
Shao Wanru watched the carriage leave at the door, then turned around and took Grandma Sheng back.
When I returned to the flower hall, I found that there were a few more people. Not only Shao Hua'an, the eldest son of Xingguo Duke's Mansion, was there, but also King Xin. Seeing Shao Wanru come in, King Xin's smile became even brighter, and he treated Shao Wanru as well. After saluting, he immediately said kindly: "Cousin, were you the one who just went to see off the eldest princess at the mansion? Aunt Gao left too fast. I originally wanted to bring a few words to my aunt, but I didn't expect to come anyway. late!"
Shao Huaan glanced at King Xin calmly.
Today, King Xin came very suddenly. After the two of them chatted in the study for a while, they came to know that Shao Wanru was in the mansion. It happened that the princess's mansion also sent someone to come. King Xin hurriedly heard this Expressing that he had something to convey to the eldest princess, Shao Huaan had no choice but to bring the person over.
Could it be that in the situation before him, His Highness King Xin is pleased with his fifth sister?
King Xin has a rather out-of-control temperament and is younger than Shao Huaan. He and Shao Huaan have not played together since they were children, and they were not close in the past. However, this time he expressed his closeness inexplicably, which really made him have to Think more.
Mrs. Xingguo was also watching King Xin's reaction. At first glance, there was something she didn't understand. It was clear that King Xin had taken a fancy to his niece, and secretly curled her lips. Among the princes, King Xin was also the most Impossible, given his temperament and past actions, no one will see him.
But Prince Xin's mother-in-law didn't seem to think so. She had been secretly thinking about choosing a good match and marrying a powerful and noble daughter-in-law to help her son.
Shao Wanru? Mrs. Xingguo Gong smiled coldly, if King Xin really liked Shao Wanru and wanted to marry Shao Wanru, Concubine Ming would definitely tear her up.
This is a good help.
"If your Highness has something to do, you can send someone directly to the Grand Princess's Mansion. Why not send a servant to take the message there." Shao Wanru said, and then bowed deeply to Mrs. Xingguo, "Second Aunt, I'm going to see my grandmother. I’m always worried about my grandmother’s health! I have to go back to Yuhui Temple in a while, and I won’t be able to see my grandmother for a while!”
"Then go and have a look!" Mrs. Xingguo didn't want to see her either, so she waved her hand and said. She was afraid that if she continued to look, her anger would come out on Shao Wanru.
Shao Wanru turned around and said goodbye to King Xin and Shao Huaan, and then left with the maid Shi Shiran, leaving King Xin alone to look at her back reluctantly, his eyes were very eager, he just wanted to talk to her. …
