195 the dissatisfaction of the old princess
The old princess is in the yard.
Xu Mingzhu is leaning against the old princess. The servant girl beside the old princess is pulling away the lotus with her bare hands. Each fresh lotus seed is placed in a crystal clear jade bowl. It looks very attractive in blue and white. Xu Mingzhu took it out of the bowl and threw it into her mouth. Her mouth was fresh and sweet.
It's freezing this season. Where can I eat fresh lotus seeds? However, the Regent had a garden on the outskirts of the capital. There was a South Lake with warm seasons in the garden. Some green lotus seeds were planted on the lake. Only then did they get so few lotus seeds, so they are extremely precious. Lianpeng sent this to the Regent's house and gave it to the old lady first. The old imperial concubine loves Xu Mingzhu so much that she gives Xu Mingzhu all these precious things as snacks.
The old princess watched Xu Mingzhu eat happily. She couldn't help but show a happy look on her face. She said angrily, "eat slowly, and no one will rob you here."
Xu Mingzhu answered, smiling and pushing the jade bowl containing lotus seeds in front of the old lady: "grandma also eats. Good things can't be all cheap. Mingzhu's stomach."
"You little monkey..." she was used to being intimate with Xu Mingzhu, and couldn't help gently tapping Xu Mingzhu's forehead with her fingers. Although the child is a little unruly, he is also filial. Why is Glenn so cruel and forced to send her out of the house? Even if you want to send Mingzhu out of the house, you should choose a famous aristocratic son-in-law for Mingzhu. How can you find a junior scholar and marry Mingzhu?
Even if it's not my own, I've been having fun under my knees for many years. I'm the daughter of the Regent's house. How can I match those people?
No, she must not allow Mingzhu to be casually married by gning.
Xu Mingzhu continued to twist lotus seeds from the bowl and send them to her mouth. The lotus seeds were cold. The old imperial concubine was afraid that she would eat too much food. A stack of voices asked people to bring the dialed pecans to Princess Mingzhu. The servant girl beside the old princess hurriedly took a bowl of Pecan meat. Pecans taste delicious, but they are not lacking all year round. They are not rare in this cold winter. After eating a few, Xu Mingzhu felt tired. She twisted one piece and sent it to her mouth. At the same time, she talked about the recent interesting things with the old princess.
"Grandma, I compete with the young lady of the British public to shoot a bow and arrow to see who can shoot a jade Jue hanging in her living room. Ha ha, I won her a Nanhai East pearl. The Nanhai East pearl is so big. The girl is so distressed that she says she won't play with me anymore..." Xu Mingzhu proudly shows off to the old lady.
The old imperial concubine lovingly hugged her: "two crazy girls can't talk about calligraphy in one place and play the piano in the other. They don't play these elegant things and go to play some men's things."
Xu Mingzhu spit out her tongue, but her face suddenly sank: "but no matter how big the Nanhai Dongzhu is, it can't compare with the box of Dongzhu given by her father to Qingru's sister." as she said, tears swirled in her eyes. Xu Mingzhu turned her back and wiped it gently in her eyes with her sleeve.
The old imperial concubine frowned slightly and turned to the big servant girl around her with her eyes: "what's the matter?"
The big servant girl around the old princess has served the master for many years. Seeing the old princess's look, she knows that the master is slightly angry and can only report timidly: "The day before yesterday, the Lord returned to the house and brought... A box of Nanhai Dongzhu for Miss Shen. He said he wanted to give her jewelry. If he couldn't finish it, he would grind it into the end for tea, which made Miss Shen calm down. It's said that they are all good things of tribute level, which can't be seen in the palace."
The old imperial concubine's face sank and asked, "can you give it to the Pearl?"
The servant girl shook her head and said, "Lord... No orders."
The old imperial concubine was silent. She loved her own granddaughter, but she was more inclined to Xu Mingzhu, who was raised since childhood. In her opinion, Xu Mingzhu had no relatives since childhood. She grew up in front of her after being carried back to the house by gning. Gning was often not in the house, leaving only Xu Mingzhu and herself. She had long regarded Xu Mingzhu as her own granddaughter. What is the blood relationship She can't compare with the adopted child in her eyes.
The old princess knew that gning must love her own daughter more. Didn't she also like pearl? She just hoped that gning could make a bowl of water flat on the big noodles and don't give herself and Pearl too much face. But now, gning didn't take Xu Mingzhu seriously.
When his own daughter is found, does the adopted daughter ignore it?
She has some fresh food here and is still thinking about Shen Qingru. How can Glenn not give Mingzhu face? If she doesn't support Mingzhu and protect the Pearl she raised, what position does Mingzhu have in the Regent's palace?
"Imperial concubine, the people of yuan family have been sending posts to visit them these days, but they were stopped by the maidservant." the big maid thought about it and decided to report Yuan Yu back to the old imperial concubine who didn't know about it.
"What's the matter?" the old princess's face was warm and angry. "Bold slaves, my mother's family dare to stop? Why can't the yuan family enter the door of his Regent's house?"
The old princess guessed that it must have something to do with the Regent.
"Does gning want Yuan Yu to marry Shen Qingru?" the old princess asked with a heavy face.
Yuan Yu is the fiance of Mingzhu. Although Yuan Yu doesn't have an official position now, he studies hard, is smart and looks good. He is also a family nephew of her mother's family. No one will dare to annoy her when Mingzhu marries her in the future. As for the official position, if she marries Mingzhu, will the Regent's palace watch helplessly and see that his son-in-law has no official position?
The old princess regarded Yuan Yu as a treasure. However, in Xu Mingzhu's eyes, Yuan Yu was not as good as a pool of stinky dog shit. A sour and corrupt scholar. He is a fool who only knows how to recite poetry against others and show off his talent. Only the old princess will think that her family nephew is a person.
The Regent solved Yuan Yu, which seemed to Xu Mingzhu to be the only thing that could make her laugh in these days.
"This......" the servant girl hesitated. She naturally knew what was going on in her heart, but she had to explain to the old princess that her family nephew was an object that everyone hated in the Regent's palace. I'm afraid the old princess couldn't understand.
"It's said that young master yuan is going to flirt with Miss Shen in the back garden..." the big servant girl said hesitantly: "the king saw it. The king was so angry that he broke his two legs and sent him back to Yuan's house."
"What?" the old imperial concubine stared like a bronze bell and said angrily: "how could he do so hard? I grew up watching yu'er and would never do such a thing! It's mostly..."
In the second half of the sentence, the old lady didn't say it.
Yuan Yu's character is flawless in the eyes of the old princess. How could he be menglang in the Regent's palace? Most of them were hooked by Yin. Who is the person who hooks yin? Only her granddaughter who just got back.
In the view of the old princess, there are strange things everywhere. Isn't it that Shen Qingru also fell in love with Yuan Yu and wanted Yuan Yu to be his ideal husband, but Yuan Yu refused, and the Regent Wang was biased against Shen Qingru. In his anger, he beat Yuan Yu seriously? If so, the son's behavior is really irritating.
Shen Qingru is his own daughter. She will worry about her future marriage. She will certainly choose the best husband for her. After all, she is her own granddaughter. The old princess also hopes Shen Qingru can marry a good family. But Mingzhu is now embarrassed. Now that the real princess of the palace has returned, her identity as an adopted princess has been embarrassed a lot. Fortunately, Yuan Yu had already seen it for her. The child was not a half hearted master. She had always been very considerate to Mingzhu. The old lady looked forward to Xu Mingzhu marrying yuan's family as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, Ge Ning did such a thing!
In her opinion, gning must have liked her husband chosen for Mingzhu and wanted to cut off her beard for Shen Qingru. But there must be a first come, first served. How could Yuan Yu, a loyal and honest child, put the Pearl of childhood childhood and dislike it and flirt with Shen Qingru who just returned to the palace?
"Pearl, don't worry. Grandma will support you and won't watch you being bullied." the old lady held Xu Mingzhu's hand.
Xu Mingzhu made an aggrieved look on her face and asked, "grandma, where's cousin yuan..."
The old princess sighed deeply: "since the child is disabled, you can't let him match you... Grandma will choose another son-in-law for you. You... You should be more open. He is always out of luck with you. Don't be too sad."
Xu Mingzhu buried her head in the arms of the old princess and smiled secretly. This is probably the only good news she heard in these days. Finally, the old lady stopped insisting on letting her marry Yuan Yu's silly fork.
As for the yuan family, who stole chicken but didn't eat rice, they were greedy to let their son marry a genuine princess, but their son was disabled by the Regent. The yuan family prayed outside the Regent's house every day. They wanted to see the old lady and take advantage of her compassion to see if there was room for a round turn.
Yuan's father and mother greedily thought that the Regent was responsible for his son's disability, and the Regent's house should be responsible for his son. Even if you can't marry a genuine princess, you should marry the original Xu Mingzhu head office. Besides, although his son broke two legs, his face was still rich and handsome, enough to fascinate women all over the world for their son.
Who knows, they finally asked the big servant girl around the old lady to see the old lady, but the old lady said she couldn't. Yuan's parents were stunned on the spot. How did the development of things differ from what they thought? Shouldn't the old lady shed tears and apologize to them again and again, send a large amount of gold and silver as compensation, and betroth the princess of the palace to their son?
The messenger dropped the word "missing" and returned to the Regent's house coldly. The yuan family's parents haven't had time to get back to their senses. They will make trouble later. The guards at the entrance of the Regent's house hold up their big knives. The cold light shines into their eyes. The yuan family's parents can only shut up and go back reluctantly. They think about how to meet the old princess and at least falsely pay a large sum of money for their son's medical expenses.
On the way, a group of masked bodyguards jumped out and beat yuan's parents with sticks. Only two people cried for their parents. It turned out that the guards were sent by Xu Mingzhu. She had already seen that the Phoenix man of the yuan family and the Phoenix man's parents were very upset. It was easy to seize the opportunity this time. Naturally, she wanted to give them out together.
Yuan Fu covered his mouth, leaving only one tooth in his mouth. He asked vaguely, "who... Who ordered you?"
The masked bodyguard gave a cold look and knocked off his last tooth with a stick.
