Chapter 348, it’s not that a family does not enter a house
October in Beijing, the weather is already very cold. According to experience in previous years, the first snow will fall in a few days.
Prince Rong's Mansion, in the northernmost Rong'an Courtyard, Nanny Qu led the way, and twenty or thirty maidservants and women stood in the yard enduring the cold wind, waiting for Shi Fuxin, who was newly married into the palace, to give a lecture.
In the room, Shi Fuxin ignored the people waiting in the yard, and ate breakfast at the usual eating speed.
When Guan Xiuyan came over, she paused when she saw a crowd of people in the yard.
Hui'er, the close maid, couldn't help but whispered: "The third wife just got married, and she just took advantage of the people in the third master's yard, isn't she too anxious?"
Guan Xiuyan glared at Hui'er, and warned: "Pay attention to your identity, how can you say something about your cousin?"
Hui'er quickly bowed her head to admit her mistake: "Girl, this servant made a mistake."
Guan Xiuyan ignored her and glanced at Nanny Qu, her eyes flickered.
According to the behavior of her cousin when she served tea just now, she even dared to contradict the old concubine and the county prince, so it would be normal for her to clean up her cousin's nanny, Nanny Qu.
The cousin married by my cousin is a bit difficult to get along with!
Guan Xiuyan walked into the courtyard with a slightly solemn mood.
"Cousin girl."
When Nanny Qu saw Guan Xiuyan approaching, she knew that the princess had something to tell her, so she immediately stepped forward and bowed her knees: "Biao girl is here to find the third lady?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the upper room, and said cryptically: "It's a bit of a coincidence that the cousin girl came here. The third lady is having breakfast, so I'm afraid I have to wait."
The cousin came here at the order of the princess, and asking the cousin to wait is to neglect the princess.
No mother-in-law can bear such disrespect from her daughter-in-law!
Nurse Qu is very aware of the princess' temperament, because the eldest concubine and the second wife are protected by the old princess and the county king respectively.
The third wife is the serious daughter-in-law of the princess, and the princess must vent on the third lady the anger she has received from the first concubine and the second lady all these years.
If the third wife followed the princess's wishes, it would be better. If she offended the princess as soon as she entered the door, she would have a hard time in the future.
"Old slaves have been waiting for a long time." Nanny Qu added.
She is the nanny of the third master. During these years of staying in the palace, no matter whether it is the princess or the third master, they will give her a little face. I never thought that the third wife would give her a big shame just after entering the door, which made her feel uncomfortable. Extremely.
Since the third lady doesn't give her face so much, she doesn't need to help her.
Guan Xiuyan glanced at Nanny Qu, they were all begging for life in the palace, everyone could guess what was going on in their minds, she didn't want to get involved with Rong Anyuan's affairs, she just pretended that she didn't understand what Nanny Qu said, just now When Hui'er was about to report to her, the curtain of the upper room opened.
An Ran walked out with a smile, and gave Guan Xiuyan a blessing: "The cousin is here, please come in."
Guan Xiuyan saw An Ran appearing in time, understood the situation in the yard, and her cousin and sister-in-law in the room knew it well. She glanced at Nanny Qu, then entered the upper room with a smile. When he entered the room, seeing that An Ran didn't pay much attention to Nanny Qu, his expression straightened again.
Biao sister-in-law really doesn't save face for Nanny Qu at all!
Shi Fuxin had finished eating, took the hot handkerchief from Nanny Leng and wiped her hands, and Guan Xiuyan came in.
Looking at Shi Fuxin, who was sitting on the main seat and looking at her with a smile, Guan Xiuyan calmed down and stepped forward to greet her: "Cousin, Xiuyan is being polite."
Shi Fuxin stood up and returned the salute: "Cousin, don't be so polite."
After doing all the courtesy, Shi Fuxin didn't intentionally express her closeness to Guan Xiuyan, and asked straight to the point: "Cousin is looking for me, is there something wrong?"
Guan Xiuyan was amazed at the straightforwardness of the new cousin, she replied in a nonchalant manner: "My aunt is looking for something to do with my cousin, and I want to invite my cousin to the main courtyard."
Pause, "My aunt also said that my cousin should not pay too much attention to what happened during the tea service."
Shi Fuxin smiled: "It turns out that my concubine is looking for me, don't worry, cousin, I have a very big heart, and I never take care of insignificant things."
Hearing this answer, Guan Xiuyan was obviously taken aback.
Put oneself and others, if she is replaced by a cousin, if she is despised by her husband's family on the first day of entering the door, she will definitely be embarrassed to death.
Is the cousin really not caring, or is she pretending to be strong?
Guan Xiuyan looked at Shi Fuxin for a while, and saw that she was smiling, and there was really no trace of worry on her brows, and she suddenly understood why her cousin married this person in front of her.
To live in the palace, one of the most important abilities is not to be too serious, or you will make things difficult for yourself before others make a move to find fault.
"I see there is still something to do in my cousin's courtyard, so I'll go back to my aunt first."
"Biao sister-in-law doesn't need to rush to the main courtyard. My aunt is with me. Cousin just handles the affairs in the courtyard before going there."
Shi Fuxin was noncommittal, just nodded with a smile, and watched Guan Xiuyan leave.
As soon as she left, An Ran couldn't help but said: "What does it mean to be a cousin just now? What does it mean that the princess has her? Is she showing that she is valued by the princess?"
Shi Fuxin was silent for a while: "For this cousin girl, as long as she doesn't hinder me, you don't need to be too hostile, she is also a poor person."
An orphan girl whose parents both died, although she was raised by the princess, but the princess of the county is incomprehensible and unable to stand up, and other people in the palace are not easy to get along with. It can be imagined that Guan Xiuyan's life in the palace these years is not easy. Where did you go.
Seeing that Shi Fuxin was about to enter the inner room to change clothes, Mother Leng quickly asked, "Ma'am, the people in the yard."
Shi Fuxin sneered: "Let them wait, blow more cold wind to wake up their minds."
Soon, Shi Fuxin changed her clothes, put on her cloak, went out of the room, and then stood on the steps, looking at the servants in the courtyard with a blank expression.
As soon as she started, the others saluted one after another: "The slaves have seen the third lady."
Shi Fuxin smiled: "The weather is quite cold, so it's hard for you to stand for a long time." Then, she looked at Nanny Qu, "Originally, I wasn't in a hurry to see everyone, but Nanny Qu just did it for me. My lord, I gathered everyone together, if I don’t see you, it seems that I’m not giving you face.”
The servants in the courtyard realized why the third lady left them alone as soon as they entered the door, and they all looked at Nanny Qu secretly.
At this moment, Nanny Qu's scalp was a little numb, her complexion changed again and again, and she quickly explained to herself: "The third lady, this old servant, absolutely does not intend to be your master, this old servant just wants to share your worries."
Shi Fuxin laughed out loud: "Share my worries? You are so capable, why don't you be the hostess of this yard, and I'll be the shopkeeper?"
Hearing this, Nanny Qu directly knelt on the ground: "Third Madam, the old slave is outraged. Even if the old slave has eaten the heart of a bear, he dare not have such a thought."
Shi Fuxin smiled more tolerantly, glanced at the servants in the courtyard, stepped down the steps, and when she passed Nanny Qu, she said, "This is not an example."
An Ran and Xiao Fang accompanied Shi Fuxin to the main courtyard, while Nanny Leng stayed behind.
Nurse Leng sent Shi Fuxin out of the courtyard, then turned to look at Nanny Qu and the others, and asked the four second-class maids who came over as a dowry to distribute the personnel forms they had prepared long ago to everyone.
"Everyone go back and fill out the content on the paper, and hand it over to me before dinner."
After finishing speaking, Mother Leng took the dowry maids to arrange Shi Fuxin's dowry.
Nurse Qu was frightened into a cold sweat by Shi Fuxin, and after reading the personnel form in her hand, her complexion became even more serious.
The personnel form is similar to Hong Yanxiao's recruitment profile, and it contains four parts.
1. Basic information: name, gender, time of birth, family status, marital status, residential address, and how to contact.
Second, knowledge status: What skills have you learned, such as literacy, female red, needle chisel, weaving, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc.
Third, where you have worked as a job, list all the job records in chronological order, and specify the position, job time, reason for leaving, and relevant witnesses.
The last one is personal strengths and hobbies.
Nurse Qu was in a serious mood. A personnel form directly checked a person clearly, allowing her to clearly understand how powerful this third lady is.
Hey, if she wants to continue to control the affairs in the third master's yard, she may not be able to.
In the past, the third master didn't go back to the mansion often, and the concubine's thoughts were so much on the prince, that she was in charge of the affairs in the third master's courtyard.
She also knows that after the third wife enters the door, the third wife will take care of the affairs of the courtyard, but the third wife has just married in, and she doesn't know anything. In the end, everything depends on her, and she can still say what she wants in the third master's courtyard.
But now.
Nurse Qu looked at the strange gazes cast by the other servants, her complexion was a little dull.
The third lady just directly expressed her dislike for her to everyone. In the future, she may find it difficult to have the majesty she used to have.
The main courtyard of the Royal Palace
As soon as Shi Fuxin entered the door, she saw Princess Guan sitting comfortably on a chair with her eyes closed, while Guan Xiuyan was standing behind her, carefully massaging her head.
Seeing Shi Fuxin coming, Guan Xiuyan quickly reminded Princess Guan: "Auntie, my cousin is here."
Princess Guan originally wanted to wait for Shi Fuxin to salute her, to let her hang out for a while, and then open her eyes, but she couldn't hear Shi Fuxin's greeting, so she opened her eyes with a frown.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw that Shi Fuxin had sat on the chair without her permission, and she was immediately unhappy.
Princess Guan just wanted to reprimand Shi Fuxin, but Shi Fuxin stood up with a smile and saluted: "My daughter-in-law has met my concubine, and my concubine Wan'an."
Didn't vent the anger in her heart, Princess Guan was a little angry, looked at Shi Fuxin, didn't cry out, but asked displeasedly: "Why are you here so late?"
Shi Fuxin followed the question, stood up straight, and said with a smile: "Someone in the courtyard bullied the daughter-in-law who just married into the palace, and the daughter-in-law left them alone for a while."
Concubine Guan ignored Shi Fuxin's answer, she was furious at Shi Fuxin's behavior of standing up, Luo Qilan and Tang Shan treated her in a wrong way, she had nothing to do, but Shi's daughter is the wife of her own son, she should be filial and respectful This mother-in-law.
Just when Princess Guan was about to lose her temper, Shi Fuxin spoke again first.
Shi Fuxin looked at Princess Guan with a smile: "Mother, do you know why the third master married me?"
Princess Guan was taken aback by the question, and couldn't react for a moment.
Shi Fuxin looked at Princess Guan with bright eyes: "Because I am the same person as the third master."
Princess Guan suddenly thought of the things that her son had done regardless of these years, and the smiling daughter-in-law in front of her slowly merged with her son's appearance.
Thinking of the scenes where she couldn't get off the stage, and thinking of the attitude of the family daughter towards the old princess and the prince during the tea ceremony, the princess who was aggressive a moment ago immediately died down.
Guan Xiuyan and Shi Fuxin noticed the change in Princess Guan's momentum at the same time.
Shi Fuxin's smile deepened. For a confused person like Princess Guan, threats are more useful than reasoning.
"Mother Concubine, did you find your daughter-in-law here for something?"
Guan Xiuyan was still in shock when she heard Shi Fuxin's words, she came back to her senses, looked at Guan Wangfei who was not looking well, and reminded with a smile: "Auntie, did you come here to ask about your cousin's physical condition? ?"
Princess Guan looked at Shi Fuxin with a straight face: "You are good at medicine, brother Yao is your husband, you should take better care of his body."
Shi Fuxin nodded with a smile: "Of course, my daughter-in-law doesn't want to be a widow."
Princess Guan: "."
Guan Xiuyan: "."
Sure enough, he is very brother Yao (cousin)!
