Chapter 250 Mrs. Hou Visits

Mercury retrograde recently?Everything is not going well.

Mian Mian and Xiao Zao came in with tea and snacks, and now they and Dong Ping have been transferred to Wufangzhai and become the third-class maids of the imperial concubine.

But they need to get up early in the morning before dawn to go to class.

The teaching content of the first grade is simplified characters, the two ancient enlightenment textbooks "San Zi Jing" and "Thousand Characters", and the second grade becomes "Children's Learning Qiong Lin", plus Song Qingyue's self-edited mathematics textbook.

In the morning, there is an hour and a half class, a Chinese class, a math class, and a homework evaluation class, all of which are half an hour.

After the class, the concubine Shi Zi will almost get up, and they will follow the sisters of the ink generation and Nanny Bai to learn all kinds of work of serving the master personally.

After the application time in the afternoon, let them go back to review their homework and do their homework.

Although life is extremely busy, all three of them are very motivated.

The three of them are now the envy of the entire palace.

The second-year course of the literacy class is voluntary, and those who have graduated from the first-year course do not need to continue.

Originally, there were still a few who quit, but now seeing the scenery of Mian Mian and the other three, none of them quit. They all worked hard, studied hard, and worked hard.

The maidservants Xiaohuangmen who were admitted to the new literacy class were even more serious. Not a single one was late for such an early class.

With role models ahead, almost everyone sees hope.

But things always have two sides. Some people work hard to climb the ladder, and there is another group of old-timers who are good at franchises and tricks. The older ones, the wives who spent more time in the palace.Because the imperial concubine obviously prefers to promote those young people with quick brains. They are all very old and have families. In addition to the affairs of the house, there are also family affairs. How can they have the energy to read and study?
This day, Nanny Pan from Yuxuan asked three other women to touch the leaf cards together, and they talked about the literacy class while touching the cards.

One of the women sighed and said: "It's really old. There is a little girl in my place who gets up before dawn to go to class. After finishing her work every day, she has to study her homework when she comes back. It is hard work. I told her to go to bed early. She is still unwilling. The lamp oil alone has cost so much these days, and I have to buy it myself. By the way, Mother Pan, do you have extra lamp oil here? I can take it back to the little girl."

While looking at the cards, Nanny Pan said, "Grandma Chu will feel sorry for this junior. Come on, after the cards are played, I'll take half of the pot for you."

The other nun also sighed: "If my wife hadn't been old enough to use her brain well, I would have gone to class too. It's a pity that my hands shake when I pick up a pen!"

Nanny Pan smiled and said, "Isn't it? I held the pen, and my hand was shaking, and the words I wrote looked like earthworms."

"I don't know what the concubine Shizi thinks, what do you think we do rough work, we need to learn how to read and write?" The other woman seemed to be angry, and slammed two cards.

"Hey! I'm sorry, let's go!" Pan Nanny said.

The topic returned to the poker table.

Nanny Bai happened to pass by, and saw the four women sitting in the yard in broad daylight picking cards, with the corners of their mouths twitched downwards.

Dong Ping, who was following behind, hurriedly asked, "Nurse, do you want me to go over and talk to them?"

Bai Momo snorted: "Forget it, we have nothing to do with Yuxuan's affairs. Let's go."

On the other side, the palace welcomed a distinguished guest, the mother-in-law of His Royal Highness King Su, the old lady of Zhenbei Houfu.

"Why are you here in person?"

King Su walked to the side of the old lady, showing the slap marks on his face that were still red and swollen, and politely helped the old lady to go in.

Although the old lady was angry in her heart, seeing the slap print on Su Wang's face that had not disappeared, she didn't dare to show embarrassment to her son-in-law again.

But she obviously waited for a few days on purpose, just to wait for the impression to disappear before coming here.

How did she know that her good son-in-law, His Royal Highness Su Wang, rubbed chili oil on the mark twice a day, just waiting for her old man to come.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with your face?" The old lady could only pretend to be stupid.

"A small matter, a small matter, probably bitten by a poisonous insect, and it will be fine in a few days." Su Wang also pretended to be stupid with the old lady, with a polite and respectful attitude: "Why is my mother-in-law free today?"

"I heard that Lan'er was ill, so I came to take a look." The old lady said with the corners of her lips curled down.

"Hey! That's really unfortunate. The imperial doctor said that her illness is easy to get over and let others go. She can only stay in the house and recuperate. You are old and old, and I am afraid it will not be easy." Su Wang's face is still respectful Very well, and the words are not leaking, so that people can't find out what to say, "Well, if you have something to bring to her, you can tell this king, how about this king personally convey it to Wangfei later?"

The old lady is in good health and walks like flying, she doesn't need help at all.

She grasped King Su's hand tightly, and said with a little effort: "What can I do with my old body, I just miss her and want to come to see if she is well. Is it possible that the son-in-law won't let me, an old mother, see her daughter?" ?”

King Su felt the strength of her palm, and exerted a little force on the hand supporting Mrs. Hou. He helped the old lady to sit down on the chair, and said with a smile, "you don't have to worry about your mother-in-law, she's fine. The king and the concubine have been husband and wife for so many years, how could the king not take good care of her? Even thinking of Huier's dying entrustment, the king will treat her well. It's not that I don't want you to see her, it's just that The illness is strange, you are over 60 years old, if something goes wrong in this king's palace, how can you call me this king's son-in-law? At this juncture, don't you want to call the imperial envoy Shen Benwang?"

King Su's starry eyes, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling, were as sharp as eagles at this time, Mu's back felt a chill, and he was quickly thinking about how to speak.

After much deliberation, he decided to soften his posture and held King Su's hands. Tears gleamed in the old eyes with sunken corners: "Third Highness! Even if I beg you, if there is any unpleasantness between husband and wife, you must keep it. Let's talk about it, just talk about it. How can a husband and wife have an overnight feud, don't you think?"

Su Wang also didn't want to give birth to the relationship between the Zhenbei Hou Mansion and the Wang Mansion because of this misunderstanding, so he said with a smile: "Mother-in-law is very right, when the princess recovers in a few days, I will call her back." Mother-in-law, report to your mother-in-law that you are safe."

The old lady of Mu's family and Su Wang looked at each other for a while, Su Wang slightly raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, she is one with this Wang and his wife, at this juncture, no matter what, you can't make her go wrong, right?"

The old lady let out a long sigh and looked away, thinking that as long as her daughter bowed her head and admitted her mistake, King Su would not do anything to her.

"If so, if she still has something to worry about, why don't you ask the old man to persuade her?"

Su Wang laughed twice: "Is the princess stubborn and pedantic? It will be fine in a few days. Mother-in-law just take care of herself and stop worrying about it."

This is still the meaning of not letting her see Xiao Ning.

The old lady was blocked by King Su, and her face was full of displeasure, but she really couldn't handle a son-in-law like King Su. After thinking about it, she asked Ning Yueyao again: "I don't know how Yao'er is doing recently. Old lady When one gets old, one misses these children and grandchildren, is it possible that even the little girl can't see her old age?"

"Where is the mother-in-law? This king will call her here right away. If you grandchildren have anything to say, please tell her well. It is also fine to ask her to go back to the Marquis Mansion for a short stay."

King Su sent someone to call Ning Yueyao, and when Ning Yueyao heard that her grandmother was coming, she was pleasantly surprised, and hurried to the middle road before she had time to dress up carefully.

When I saw my grandmother, I forgot even the courtesy, and threw myself into the old lady's arms to act like a spoiled child.

King Su coughed aloud from the side, Ning Yueyao was startled, got up in a hurry, and saluted His Royal Highness King Su, who was both uncle and father-in-law. Because there was an old lady by her side today, Ning Yueyao felt With more confidence, she started acting coquettishly with His Royal Highness King Su: "Uncle! Yao'er hasn't seen her grandmother for a long time, so it's out of courtesy. Uncle, please don't forget about the little girl's life, okay?"

She leaned against the old lady's side like a boneless one, and old lady Hou just looked at her lovingly without a word of reproach.

The people in the hall lowered their heads one by one, but they all frowned imperceptibly.

King Su still had a kind smile on his face, without any displeasure, and said with a smile: "That's right, if it's noon today, my mother-in-law would stay for lunch before going back, and ask Yao'er to accompany you well."

The grandfather and grandson talked about whether they would have a meeting or not, because King Su was standing beside him, and it was inconvenient to say some things that could only be said in private, so the old lady said: "Your Highness, I want to go to Yao'er's residence to have a look."

As soon as these words came out, even the calm Eunuch Wang froze slightly.

In fact, this matter is extremely unruly. When the relatives of the eldest son and concubine's house come to the palace, they have to go to Song Qingyue's place first to meet the mistress of the East Road.

But with the status of the old lady, how could she be allowed to meet Song Qingyue?
Ning Yueyao leaned into the old lady's arms, and continued to coquettishly said: "Uncle, you should agree! Grandmother also loves me, she has to see my residence to be at ease. Just take a look."

King Su took a sip of tea, and glanced at Ning Yueyao, Ning Yueyao was a little guilty, so he shrank behind the old lady.

He put his fingertips on the edge of the teacup, wondering if he should call Song Qingyue over?

Call her here and tell this old shrew surnamed Mu to ridicule her and teach her a lesson?
Oh, forget it!

King Su chuckled, dismissed the idea for a moment, put down the teacup, and said with an easy-going expression: "It's okay, mother-in-law, let's go to Yao'er's residence. Let the old lady talk, so that they can rest assured."

His Royal Highness Su Wang has long been used to this unreasonable behavior towards his mother-in-law, and nodded to the old lady to save face. As for his true thoughts, no one can guess.

The easy-going smile still hung on the corner of his mouth, his hands were behind his back, his thumb slowly turned the emerald ring on his thumb, and he stared at the back of the grandparent and grandson walking out of the hall hand in hand until he couldn't see Only then slowly looked away.

Later, when Song Qingyue took a nap, Nanny Bai told about Mrs. Mu's visit to the palace: "It was the old lady who offered to go to Yusheng Residence, and she sat for more than an hour before leaving."

When the servants in the room heard this, they were all indignant, Mo Zhu said: "Why is the old lady so ignorant of the rules, and even made such a request, isn't it difficult for His Royal Highness King Su?"

Dongping also had a fiery temper, and said angrily: "Concubine Shizi, that old woman is obviously going to slap you in the face! The lord is so true, why did she agree? No matter how bad it is, I should call you to the front hall to say something. What do you do? Said that they are the official wives of His Royal Highness!"

Mian Mian hurriedly grabbed her and shook her head at her. Didn't you see that the sisters Mo Mei and Mo Lan were silent!Newcomer, what a head!

Song Qingyue glanced at Dongping and started to smile. The smile was soft and beautiful, like spring wind turning into rain. Dongping blushed when she saw it, and stammered, "Slave, I'm talking too much, Shizifei, please punish me."

Song Qingyue shook her head, and said gently: "Mrs. Hou is not only Ning Yueyao's grandmother, she is also the prince's mother-in-law and the son's grandmother. No matter what, the father and king can't beat his mother-in-law in the face for my daughter-in-law."

Dongping sighed, and said in a lost tone: "Yes, I understand."

"This matter, let's stop here. Keep your mouth shut, and you are not allowed to mention this matter in the future, and it is impossible to discuss it in private, so let's just ignore it. My father probably also wants me to pretend to be deaf and dumb on this matter. It is clear, right?" ?”

Song Qingyue's tone was calm, without any emotion, and everyone in the room praised her. Bai Nai secretly sighed in her heart, feeling wronged for Song Qingyue in her heart, but she also knew that she had done the right thing. She went out to teach the maids and women outside. If you close it tightly, you will pretend that Wufangzhai does not know that Mrs. Hou has come to the East Road.

In the evening, when King Su saw that Song Qingyue was still silent, he felt relieved, and was very satisfied with the eyesight of the girl of the Song family. He could think about what he thought and understand his difficulties as a father-in-law. It is a filial child!

Once again, I am glad that Song Qingyue was chosen as the imperial concubine.Otherwise, with Ning Yueyao's little girl's temper, she might not know what kind of trouble she would have if she encountered such a thing.

Although this little girl of the Song family has a bit of a temper, since she married into the palace these days, she has never been confused about major matters, and she has never made things difficult for her father-in-law. He couldn't be more comfortable.

"This king is truly astute!"

He lazily spread out on the couch and sighed, leaning on Pei Dianyi's beautiful lap, listening to Jie Mei playing the piano, eating the grapes peeled by Wang Mei, his emperor and I were not so good at enjoying it.

The three concubines were in a fog, and they didn't know what His Royal Highness King Su was talking about.

On the contrary, Wang Luen understood the meaning of the master immediately, and asked in a low voice: "Would you like to send some expensive medicinal herbs and supplements tomorrow?"

"En! By the way, I also sent the fire coral that was sent from the south this year. Whether it's for displaying or making jewelry, it's up to her, don't make her feel wronged."

"Yes."
