Chapter 18：

Main court

Ruan Xi met his aunt Zhang Clan after passing through the subordinates, and Zhang Clan was busy listening to the reports of various stewards.

Ruan Xi stood aside and waited very wisely. After seeing her, Gao's mother came over and brought her to the side hall to offer tea and snacks.

About an hour later, the aunt Zhang came to the Pian Ting after finishing her work, and her eyes stopped for a while on Ruan Xi's new clothes.

When Ruan Xi saw Zhang coming in, he quickly got up and bowed his knees.

"Daughter Ruan Xi greets her mother."

"Get up." Zhang Shi smiled and then moved to sit on the low couch.

Ruan Xi stood up straight.

"Si Niang, you are now Master Wen's fiancée. My aunt will always teach you how to deal with housekeeping and human relations, so as not to lose the face of the uncle's house and be seen as a joke."

Zhang narrowed a smile and said straightforwardly, with a very severe tone.

"Thank you mother. Mother has troubled. My daughter will listen to your instructions." Ruan Xi was moved.

Zhang smiled: "You call me a mother, you can be regarded as my daughter. Mothers always want their daughter to be happy."

Ruan Xi's face was even more touched, but she laughed in her heart. Yes, mothers want their daughter to be happy, but she is not Zhang's biological daughter. Zhang wants her to live a miserable life for the best.

"Mother, my daughter heard yesterday that the third sister ate something that shouldn't be eaten, is she okay with the third sister?" Ruan Xi asked with concern.

Zhang suppressed his unhappiness and said with a smile, "Sanniang is fine."

"Will the third sister also study housekeeping with her daughter?" Ruan Xi hesitated for a moment, raising his face and asking expectantly.

Mother Sun and Mother Gao: "..." Miss Si, which pot is not opened or which pot.

In the past few days, the wife had mentioned the housekeeping issue to Miss San several times, but Miss San refused, and said that she wanted to open her own teahouse to do business, and the wife was very angry.

"Sanniang's situation is different from yours, don't worry." Zhang thought of her daughter's recent changes, and the smile on his face faded.

A trace of disappointment appeared on Ruan Xi's face at the right time. She did not miss the flashes of her aunt and two mothers. She secretly thought that it was not that her aunt did not want to teach, but that Ruan Sanniang did not want to learn.

"Well, not much gossip. Butlers are not an easy task. I will first hand over the sewing room in the mansion to you. This is the simplest errand. If you don't understand, you can ask Mom Gao." Zhang did not want to waste time with a concubine, and directly assigned the errands that had been set to Ruan Xi.

"Yes, mother, daughter understand." Ruan Xi pretended to be excited.

As soon as the aunt came up, she directly assigned errands to her without the slightest experience, and did not teach anything in advance, thinking that she planned to come forward when she made a mistake or couldn't control her.

Zhang waved his hand and asked Mama Gao to take Ruan Xi to the sewing room.

Ruan Xi was about to leave, at this moment, Zhang's maid hurried in to report.

"Madam, there is someone from Wen Mansion."

Zhang hurriedly got up to the flower hall, as if thinking of something, looked back at Ruan Xi and asked her to follow.

Ruan Xi followed the Zhang clan in a proper manner. Young Master Wen mentioned in his letter yesterday that he would send his parenting mother over today. Wen's visit should be to send her a parenting mother.

Mr. Wen mentioned in the letter that this upbringing mother was gentle, well-behaved, and thoughtful, and she was Mrs. Wen's confidant mother.

Master Wen is really hardworking.

In the flower hall, the housekeeper of Wen's house and a mother who was in her early forties, with an ordinary appearance, but with an outstanding demeanor, came in.

Ruan Xi was very satisfied when he saw this mother.

"I have seen Mrs. Ruan. Next is Wen Ming, the steward of the Wen Mansion. This time, I am here to send Miss Ruan Si to her foster mother on the order of my wife and eldest son."

The sincere Mrs. Uncle Wen Ming, who is the big butler, bowed her hand and said with a smile.

The upbringing mother gracefully stepped forward and bowed slightly to salute: "Lin has seen Mrs. Ruan."

"Mrs. Ruan, Ms. Lin was originally Mrs. Wen's confidant, and the parenting mother that the eldest son specially asked for Miss Ruan Si."

The housekeeper Wen Ming specifically pointed out the identity of Lin's mother.

Who is Mrs. Wen? She is the royal princess and cousins ​​with Emperor Xian.

Very seniority.

Ruan Xi was amused secretly, saying that the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, this mother Lin is just a parenting mother, but the master status is terribly high.

In the future, Zhang's face Mama Lin was afraid to be polite, so he didn't dare to act rashly.

Mr. Wen's move won her heart.

Ruan Xi silently sent a good person card to Master Wen in his heart.

Sure enough, when Zhang heard that Lin's mother came from such a big background, the smile on his face almost broke, and the joy in his heart disappeared instantly.

With this nurturing mother, she was afraid that she could not hold down Siniang.

Zhang once again regretted that he hadn't, and wished to go back in time and choke that stupid self.

Fortunately, Siniang has been sterilized.

Zhang took a deep breath to calm down, and put on a happy smile.

"Mrs. Lao Wen and Young Master Wen bothered. The arrival of Mama Lin can be considered as a solution to my urgent needs. Two days ago, my uncle told me to find a mother in the palace to teach Siniang, and I was about to get angry."

Zhang's remarks showed that her aunt's aunt attaches great importance to Ruan Xi. After speaking, Zhang also slipped out Ruan Xi.

"It is her blessing that Siniang can be taught by Ms. Lin herself, Siniang, please come over and meet Ms. Lin soon."

Ruan Xi sighed secretly, this high-ranking back house woman is an acting master. When she heard Zhang's words, she took a step forward, and said calmly, "Si Niang has seen Mama Lin."

Mother Lin looked at this Miss Ruan Si with a smile, her eyes soft: "Miss Si!"

The fourth young lady looked at her words and deeds not at all like the concubines raised by the Bofu, her eyes were calm, her temperament was introverted, and her appearance and body were even more outstanding.

The housekeeper Wen Ming was surprised that the beautiful little girl standing next to Mrs. Sincere turned out to be Miss Ruan Si, the fiancée of the eldest son.

Sure enough, she had a beautiful face as in the rumors.

"I have seen Miss Fourth, this is a letter from Grand Prince Ren Xia."

Butler Wen Ming smiled and took out a letter from the cuff and handed it.

Ruan Xi smiled slightly: "Housekeeper Wen doesn't need to be polite." Then he took the letter from Master Wen in a natural manner, with joy in his eyes.

Upon seeing this, Wen Ming's butler smiled more sincerely.

Seeing steward Wen delivering the letter and Ruan Xi's calm and confident performance, Zhang was slightly surprised, and the look in Ruan Xi's eyes could not help but bring a look of scrutiny and coldness.

Mother Chen and Mother Gao had a heartbeat, and they looked at each other and smiled secretly. The fourth young lady hid so deeply.

This time, the Wen Mansion sent a parenting mother to come here in a fair manner. The madam’s calculations were about to fall to nothing. With this mother in the mansion, who would dare to act in the face of the fourth lady.

Wen's housekeeper came and left soon. Mother Lin stayed as a parenting mother and would definitely live in Chengxin Garden.

When leaving the main courtyard, Zhang's auntie Zhang faces Ruan Xidao in front of Lin's mother with a hypocritical and loving smile.

"Si Niang, you have to listen to Mama Lin's instructions and don't let Mama Lin down, you know?"

Ruan Xi held Master Wen's letter in his hand, and happily responded, "Daughter understands."

Zhang's eyes flicked over the letter in her hand, looked at Mama Lin, and said politely: "Mother Laurin has bothered."

Mother Lin smiled slightly and said, "Madam, you are welcome, this is what I should do."

When Ruan Xi took Mama Lin to leave the main courtyard, Mama Gao also went to make arrangements. Zhang's smile instantly cooled down, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Damn, I didn't expect that I was deceived by a dead girl for so many years."

Mother Sun smiled bitterly in her heart. She actually understood Miss Fourth. The situation of Miss Fourth was there. There was no biological mother and no foreign family. If she didn't hide her, she would never let her go. Maybe someone would be gone someday.

"Madam, now the weather for Miss Fourth is complete. With the Mama Lin here, we'd better not lay hands on Miss Fourth again. It won't be good if you get tired to the young master. In fact, you can think about it in another direction, Miss Fourth. The more the Wen family pays attention, the more beneficial to the young master."

"Isn't the young master going to participate in Qiuwei this year? With the Wen family's relationship, the young master will have the opportunity to get advice from the great scholars in the academy."

Taking advantage of the absence of Gao's mother, Sun's mother hurriedly tried to persuade her.

To be honest, she actually did not approve of the lady's act on Miss Si. However, Mama Gao was instigating her, and the lady could not see Miss Si stepping Miss No. 3 on her feet, suffocating her breath and telling the old lady to deal with Miss Si. .

What are the benefits of dealing with Miss Fourth?

No.

Didn't you see that Aunt Lin and other aunts didn't mix up?

After listening to the persuasion of Sun's mother, Zhang's complexion was uncertain, with Dalang on one side and face on the other. Finally, Zhang gritted his teeth and chose Dalang.

Uncle Da Lang is not only a son, Da Lang is her support.

"Mother Sun, you are right, but I just can't swallow that breath."

Zhang has been married to the Sincere House for more than 20 years. Even if the uncle later spoiled the concubine’s house, her status has never been shaken, and she has never been angry. Her pair of children is her pride, and the concubine’s house is favored again. Their children are not as good as her Dalang Sanniang.

This is what Zhang is most proud of and proud of.

However, Si Niang suddenly rose up, and her San Niang was so gloomy that even the old lady and uncle looked at Si Niang differently.

Zhang was very angry, even if she knew that all this was caused by her accident, she still moved her anger to Siniang.

Mother Sun: "..."

...

Suyu and Suzhu, who were waiting outside the courtyard, saw that Wen's housekeeper had already left. The young lady hadn't come out for a long time, and there was a trace of anxiety and worry on their faces.

At this moment, a lavender figure of Miao Man came into view, and the two greeted them happily.

"Miss!"

Ruan Xi showed a smile, and warmly introduced Mother Lin to Suyu Suzhu.

Suyu Suzhu was overjoyed when he heard that he was the parenting mother of Young Master Wen sent her off.

The group returned to Chengxinyuan. Ruan Xi arranged for Lin's mother to live in a clean wing next to her. Gao's mother beside Zhang brought new clothes, bedding and toiletries, and also sent two maids to serve Lin. mom.

After setting up Mother Lin, Ruan Xi returned to the house, looked at the yellow rosewood jewelry box on the table, took a sip of tea from the teapot, and then opened the letter from Master Wen.

In the past few days, she has been careful step by step to resolve her own crisis little by little, and now she has finally achieved little results.

Auntie should be very surprised to see her performance.

Ruan Xi curled up the corners of her lips and showed a pleasant smile.

Of course, the biggest hero was Young Master Wen, and Master Wen's deeds gave her confidence.

After reading Master Wen's letter, Ruan Xi decided to give him a small gift to thank him. Fupin Chinese
