Chapter 312
The meals of the chanting ladies are naturally arranged uniformly by the palace, and the dishes are of course different for different grades.Although Mrs. Dong Tai is only the wife of the Duke, her father is a famous hero who founded the country, and her husband was also an important minister of Gaozu.A family of children and grandchildren are the pillars of the country.

People who are almost on an equal footing with the Empress Dowager naturally have richer meals than Jin Xi.But Jinxi was sitting at the table, looking at the more than ten vegetarian dishes in front of him, but he couldn't put down his chopsticks.

Eat people's mouth is short, after this meal, this old lady who is more rigid than the queen mother may not know what to say!

"Princess, try this eight-treasure vegetable stew, it's the most light and refreshing!" The young lady who invited Jinxi over earlier was also a person who knew her eyes. He took some vegetables and put them on the plate.

"Thank you, Fifth Madam!" Jin Xi hurriedly thanked her. On the way here, she already knew that this woman with dimples on her smiling face was Mrs. Dong's great-grandson daughter-in-law, Liang Yue, the youngest daughter of Liang Xing, the Imperial College Jijiu.

Liang Yue's husband is the eldest grandson of Duke Mu's house. Normally outsiders should call her Mrs. Liang or Mrs. Liang, but for some reason, the servants of Duke Mu's mansion call her Fifth Madam.Jin Xi had no choice but to call her Fifth Madam.

The Fifth Madam wanted to break the deadlock, and Jin Xi didn't care about her face, and put the chopsticks into his mouth with a smile.It's not all that much, but it's really like the fifth lady said, crisp and refreshing, with a touch of hot and sour, the most appetizing.

Jin Xi's worry was instantly diluted, and only then did she feel hungry.

With the Fifth Madam present, Jin Xi's meal went smoothly and harmoniously.He piled up the bowls and chopsticks and rinsed his mouth with salt water according to Mrs. Dong's rules. Mrs. Dong ordered the fifth lady lightly: "Go and bring me a thick coat!"

coming!Jin Xi's heart skipped a beat, knowing Mrs. Dong had sent Mrs. Fifth away, so she had something to say to her!

Fifth Madam agreed in a crisp voice, and before going out, she gave Jin Xi a self-seeking look, and closed the door smoothly.

Jinxi immediately stood up knowing the current affairs, and respectfully saluted Mrs. Dong, "The younger generation is young and ignorant, and lacks the teachings of the elders. Naturally, there are omissions everywhere. If there is anything wrong, please tell Mrs. Tai."

In terms of emotion and reason, public and private, regardless of official status or seniority, Jin Xi knew that this scolding would not escape, so she simply put on a posture first, trying to get rid of it lightly!
No way, who made Mrs. Dong famous for being nosy.

Mrs. Dong was also polite, her face darkened, "Do you know your mistake?"

"I know!" Jin Xi said honestly: "I shouldn't surrender my identity to expose Mrs. Wu's faults, making people laugh. Killing one thousand enemies and harming eight hundred is not a good strategy. I should use a better way to deal with it. !"

Jinxi's attitude was sincere and her expression was heavy, Mrs. Dong's stern face finally eased a bit, "It's good to know, don't do it again in the future!"

Jin Xi was a little surprised that there was a hint of the elders' protection for the younger generation in the tone of his words.According to the legend, isn't Mrs. Dong the most willing to teach people based on her status and seniority?This attitude is inconsistent with the legend!

"Are you blaming the old lady for meddling in her own business?"

Jin Xi was a little distracted, Mrs. Dong asked in a moderate voice, and she was instantly frightened into a cold sweat.Ghostly old, fine horse, old slippery, this Mrs. Tai is simply a sophisticated and slippery existence, can you see it?
"Of course not, Le Yi was just thinking, which of the outstanding things caught Mrs. Tai's eyes, and Mrs. Tai is willing to give me advice after working so hard?" According to Mrs. Fifth's vague reminder on the road, Jin Xi immediately hit the snake with a stick, and should road.

"It's even more slippery than the fifth girl!" Mrs. Dong finally showed a smile, and suddenly sighed again, "That child Shen Dayou and my husband learned the art of war back then. I watched him grow up. It's almost my half. a son.

Once he died, Shen Xiao became Uncle Changping's adopted son again, and changed his name to Qin Xiao, and the two families became identities.Anyway, Shen Dayou only has Xiao'er as a descendant, so naturally I can't watch you lead your life in a wrong way! "

What?Jin Xi was really stunned now, Qin Xiao, you bastard, there is such a big tree, why didn't you say it earlier?Isn't it a waste of resources to leave Mu Guogong's big thick legs and not hug them?

Although Jin Xi felt that he was at a loss in his heart, he didn't dare to climb up the ladder this time.Qin Xiao never mentioned the relationship between the Shen family and Duke Mu's mansion. It is definitely not as simple as Mrs. Dong said, such things as chasing friendship, if not handled properly, it will be a big trouble!
Mrs. Dong didn't care what Jin Xi thought, since she put on the posture of an elder, her attitude immediately became strict, "Although you are young, you are also the mistress of a mansion, a majestic lady, how can you live your life in a nonchalant manner, without any doubts? No rules at all?"

What is no three no four?Did she steal it or rob it?Jin Xi secretly rolled her eyes, but listened with a smile, without any intention of refuting.Leaning against a big tree is good for enjoying the shade. Since Mrs. Dong is acting like a family friend, she must be covered for the next 80 days.Just scold a few words, anyway, you won't lose a piece of meat, it's just a protection fee.

Mrs. Dong didn't know if she was really nosy, or if she was old enough to be long-winded, she scolded Jin Xi from beginning to end.It took a full stick of incense before he took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.

The Fifth Madam stood outside the door, her scalp tingling while listening, and she secretly sweated for Jin Xi.What if Princess Leyi couldn't bear the idleness and contradicted Mrs. Tai?I hope that the princess is a sensible person who understands the kindness of the grandma.But then again, the grandma is too much in charge, and her tone is so sharp, how many people can bear it?

Fifth Madam stood outside the door struggling, while Jin Xi who was being scolded in the room kept smiling. If there was a bit of perfunctory in her smile at the beginning, at this moment, she is definitely grateful from the bottom of her heart.

She is not a masochist, she likes to be scolded.But Mrs. Dong can speak to the point in every sentence, not only pointing out the shortcomings, but also giving her ways to make up for it.The so-called listening to what you say is better than reading ten years of books refers to this kind of thing.

Although the method is a bit rough, the benefits are obvious.Aside from other things, she knows how to get along with these noble ladies from aristocratic families in the days to come.

Mrs. Dong's mouth was dry, to be precise, she was scolding dry, but Jin Xi was smiling all the time, without a trace of stiffness, and even nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Dong was also secretly surprised. She has lived a long time, and she has met countless young daughter-in-laws, and there are dozens of people who are willing to give advice. She has never been scolded like Princess Leyi.She is still not old and dim-sighted, so she can naturally see that Jinxi's smile is not a good-looking one, but a sincere smile, and now Mrs. Dong can't continue to scold.

I can't tell whether I am happy or regretful, no wonder that monster Yun Zong can take a fancy to this girl, this girl is really outstanding!Not to mention, the most outstanding fifth lady in the Duke's mansion is not as open-minded as this girl!
No wonder that brat Qin Xiao was willing to let go of his airs and sneaked to Duke Mu's mansion, pestering her with snot and tears, insisting that she promise to take care of this girl.

Mrs. Dong paused, and Jin Xi immediately poured a cup of hot tea to her, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Tai, drink some tea to moisten yourself."

After Mrs. Dong finished her tea, she immediately laughed again and said, "Will you continue scolding or take a break before scolding?"

"Pfft..." Mrs. Dong couldn't help being happy now, "You girl, do you have an addiction to being scolded?"

Jin Xi instantly turned bitter, "How could it be? But Mrs. Tai is very earnest. Although it is a bit harsh, good medicine is good for the disease. Le Yi understands this!"

Sure enough, he is a smart man!

Mrs. Dong secretly praised her, and suddenly changed the topic, "According to Mrs. Wu's rank, she is not qualified to enter the palace to pray for the queen, but she just came here, and she is still making a show of being your enemy. What do you do about this?" Look?"

"She's not fair and made things difficult for me to vent her anger!" Jinxiu said whatever she said, Jinxiu couldn't figure her out, and instead made her pay for herself and had to marry Wu Tianyou. This matter is not a big secret in Beijing.It is reasonable for her to hate Jinxi, after all, if a good girl marries a fool, it would be a ghost if she doesn't hate her!

Jin Xi returned happily, but Mrs. Dong sized her up and didn't speak for a while.After a while, he said, "You really think so?"

"Isn't it?" Jin Xi stared blankly at Madam Dong with wide eyes.

Suddenly, Mrs. Dong was not sure whether Jin Xi was telling the truth or a lie.

After watching Mrs. Dong helplessly for a while, she secretly thought that she was really old, and she still doubted such an obvious thing.If this girl had no other doubts, how could she lower her status and deal with Zhou Jinxiu?With her cleverness, she put a few perfunctory words on her face, secretly called Nanny Gui, and hinted a little, what can't be solved?
Why bother to make such a fuss, the world knows it?This is Tibetan clumsiness!
Seeing Jinxi's precautions, Mrs. Dong was not only not angry, but was comforted because it was the first time dealing with her.If Jin Xi really didn't have any defenses at all, and told her the truth, she would really have a headache to death.Is there anything in the world more tiring than training a silly girl?
Fortunately, this girl is smart!
"It's getting late, you go back and rest for a while, there's still a lesson to kneel in the afternoon!" Mrs. Dong waved her hand, and Mrs. Fifth immediately pushed the door in, and handed a small bundle in her hand to Jinxi with a smile, "I see The Princess' knees are numb in the morning, probably not ready to 'kneel without fear', I have an extra pair here, don't dislike it, just take it for an emergency!"

Jin Xi looked at the knee pads that were made of cowhide and filled with half a palm of thick cotton in Mrs. Fifth's hands, tears were about to flow down her eyes.No wonder those people knelt on their knees all morning and they were all fine, so there are protective measures in place!

Silly, she knelt down on the thin prayer mat, could her legs not be numb?No lame is considered good health!
Jinxi was holding the gift of 'Don't be afraid to kneel' from the Fifth Madam, and went back to her room with a smile. As soon as she reached the gate of the courtyard, she saw Jinxiu walking towards her.Seeing her, Jinxiu was also startled, and immediately came up to her with a smile...
