"This is my slave's birthday gift to Lord Marquis." Leng Yu held the brocade box in both hands, gave a small gift, and opened the lid. Whether intentionally or not, the box body tilted slightly, just enough for Wen Ningzhi, who was closest to him, to sit.

Wen Yiyun looked at it clearly.

It was not only the third concubine Leng Yu who got drunk at noon today, but also the third concubine Wen Yiyun. In fact, the two of them brought it on themselves, because Leng Yu's words during the dinner were derogatory to the concubine Han Qiao. The overall meaning was that Han Qiao was stingy and brought trouble.

The entire Hou Mansion felt shabby. In front of so many people, Hanqiao swallowed her anger. It's just that people are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless? Hanqiao prefers Wen Yiyun, and the latter naturally has the most affection for the former, plus her firecrackers

How can you endure your temper?

Fortunately, because it was her father's birthday party, there were male servants from the Marquis and her father's close friends at the tables nearby, so she didn't make a big fuss and lose her father's face. But at the banquet,

Arguments often turn into a verbal fight over wine. So the two of them go back and forth, refusing to give an inch. When the situation is about to get out of control, the third aunt cannot bear the alcohol and gives in. After that, she goes back to the room to change clothes and sober up. This

At that time, Wen Yiyun was quite tired, but in order to show victory, she still held on here.

Wen Ningzhi took out the "safe and sound" card, looked at it, and showed a surprised expression. However, he was a wealthy man and concealed it well. He quickly calmed down and only showed his signature gentle smile, "You are interested."

After saying that, you should put the sign back into the brocade box.

Wen Yiyun was stimulated by alcohol and his brain was excited. When he saw this, he quickly stopped him, "Hey, this brand comes from overseas?" He didn't see Wen Ningzhi frown at all and took the brand into his hand. He looked at it repeatedly and put it to his nose to smell it.

, "It has a warm fragrance. When you warm it up in the palm of your hand, the fragrance becomes stronger. Father, I heard that the sacred wood that has been matured for thousands of years can be like this. It has the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind." After all, she is a young lady from the Hou family, even if she has never eaten it.

Pork, I have also seen pigs walking. There are no carvings or patterns on the sign, and it does not look exotic. But those who are discerning can tell that the strange wood, which is three times more expensive than gold, does not belong to the Kingdom of Zhao.

"Exactly." Leng Yu admitted directly, "Master Hou has worked hard for the country and often has trouble sleeping, so he usually carries this brand close to his body. Put it next to the pillow at night to get a good night's sleep. Master Hou is in good health.

The blessings of the Great Zhao are also the blessings of our whole family. I just wish that the Marquis will live a long life..."

Longevity is as long as that of insects! Glaze fills the heart.

When she said her blessings, Leng Yuying bowed. This kind of behavior would make a man tempted. Moreover, her words contained a lot of information: she cared about Mr. Hou's health more than anyone else, and she was willing to bear it.

Capital. The Marquis devoted himself to the country. The Marquis often slept at her place. Otherwise, how could she know the quality of this man's sleep? She also reminded everyone. Who is the most favored in the house, and you must choose your position first if you want to stand in line. If so,

When she takes power in the future, she will definitely have a lot of good fruits to eat.

"Where did you get the money to buy this?" Wen Yiyun didn't care about that. Since he couldn't hide his words, he naturally said whatever he thought. He didn't even see his eldest sister wink at him.

Looking at Wen Yingxuan again, he looked like he was watching a good show. Wen Hongxuan's expression was as calm as his father. But Liuli found the indifference hidden in his eyes. It seemed that he hated this family! Hey, this is a rather novel discovery.

.

"Third Miss, don't worry. I didn't use the money from the father-in-law. I saved it all little by little." Leng Yu showed a bit of ridicule, but when she looked at Wen Ning, she burst into tears.

With this speed of facial expressions and such divine acting skills, she is simply a born actress!

Wen Ningzhi frowned and suddenly remembered that he went to Cuiyuan last night and saw that many ornaments and utensils in the main room were gone. When he asked Leng Yu, he said that he accidentally dropped them. When he asked the girl again, he said that his aunt had taken them to sell. At that time, he

He was very angry, and most of all, he felt distressed. It would be a few years before he could use Honglian's dowry, and now the Manhou Mansion was an empty shell, and he really couldn't afford to spoil things. He liked Hanqiao because she could keep her dignity and work hard to maintain it.

expense.

Thinking that the holiday was coming, he didn't want to get angry on the spot, so he just rolled up his sleeves and left. But it turned out that Yu'er was buying him a birthday gift. With this sign hanging on his waist, he could imagine that it would make his colleagues in the Yamen

Envy. As for him, he had wronged Yu'er and misunderstood her. When he thought of this, his whole heart softened. He wished that it was dark now and he could hold his Yu'er tenderly.

But Wen Yiyun was someone who couldn't clearly see the situation. She suddenly remembered that there was a whisper in the house that the third aunt was selling off the things in the house. She had thought before that she would report it to her aunt after the festival and investigate this vixen. Now

Suddenly it occurred to me that Third Yiniang secretly sold things in the house in order to buy gifts to please her father!

In view of the natural hatred between the favored concubine and the legitimate daughter, Wen Yiyun burst out on the spot, "Your own? Where do you get anything that is your own? With Mrs. Huo's dowry, even you are the private property of the Marquis!

You still said that you didn’t use the money from the public house? Are the things from the public house not silver? If you have the ability, take us to your yard to have a look. Are there any good things missing?"

Wen Hongxuan closed his eyes.

Mrs. Huo is a taboo in the house and no one is allowed to mention it. My sister was so angry that she even forgot about it! Outsiders thought that her father was hurt because of love. He didn't believe it, but he didn't want to know why.

However, Liuli felt secretly happy and almost couldn't control her expression.

Leng Yu is indeed a talent. As long as he gives her the direction in a subtle way, without even building a bridge for her, she will take action quickly. Wen Yiyun is going to be unlucky, but it is the aunt behind him who is hurt. This move happened many days ago

In the arrangement, everything is going according to plan today. Rumors, drinking, drunkenness, and the shine of silver are the rhythm of the day. The main event will be in the evening, right?

Well done!

Unfortunately, smart people have a common problem: they look down on their opponents, so in the end it is inevitable that the dog bites the dog.

"Third Miss, today is the birthday of the Marquis, why are you forcing me like this?" Leng Yu always adopts the little white flower strategy in front of outsiders, "There is really something missing, I will use my future monthly money to make up for it."

"That's nice to say..."

"Shut up, everyone!" Wen Ningzhi slapped the armrest of the chair and shouted. "During the Mid-Autumn Festival, family reunions, look at what you look like! You..." He pointed at Wen Yiyun's nose, "Where are you still?"

She's like a lady, fussing over petty gains, drunk and losing her temper, shouting and yelling. Qiao, send her back to the courtyard. She's banned from going out for ten days!"

"Yes." The aunt went up to pull Wen Yiyun with a pale face.

She wanted to say something like "This bitch is not good for the housekeeper, please punish me" to alleviate Wen Yiyun's guilt. But she accidentally saw a sneer on the corner of Leng Yu's lips, and suddenly understood that this was for her. Then.

I absolutely couldn't let that vixen succeed and seize the stewardship, so I just responded in a low voice without saying much. Seeing that Wen Yiyun's face was red with anger, as if he wanted to argue, he quickly pulled him away and shook his head gently at Wen Yiyun.

She also knew that this girl had committed a big taboo. When Mrs. Huo was mentioned in public, things couldn't be easy today.

"Master Marquis, please calm down." As he pulled Wen Yiyun away, Hanqiao knocked on the sidelines, "Miss Third is a child after all, and she also thinks about the family, so she doesn't speak lightly or seriously."

It means: The third aunt was at fault first, and the third lady just spoke openly. So, Mr. Marquis, you have to be fair. Aren’t you always fair? No one should be punished, so many people are watching!

Sure enough, Wen Ningzhi looked at Leng Yu and said with a bluster, "I just want to ask, have you violated any family rules?"

"I am willing to be punished." Leng Yu's determination showed grievance, and she was still a movie queen.

"During the festival, I won't punish you for the time being. You can go back to the yard by yourself. You are not allowed to go to the lantern market with the whole family tonight." Wen Ningzhi looked like Bao Gong, "No matter what the reason is, if you violate the family rules, you will still be treated the same.

Be punished!"

"Yes." Leng Yu lowered his head and obeyed. But he was excited in his heart: All he wanted was to stay in the house tonight.

Liu Li, who was aside, suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Wen Ningzhi. A great talent! A great man! An important minister in the court! The emperor's favorite general! So what is the result? In order to save face, he was morally kidnapped by two concubines. It was really... it really made her say

what's good.

The storm subsided on the surface after Wen Ningzhi took action. But the undercurrent had just begun. In order to show that they were not affected by this trivial matter, after dinner, like every other family, the Wen family went to the lantern market

Appreciating the moon and lanterns. Led by Wen Ningzhi, a large family went forward in several carriages. In the eyes of the world, it was truly the beauty of family, a model of Zhao. No one knew how much filth and poverty were hidden under this cluster of flowers.

Tragic secret.

Liuli didn't like places like temple fairs. They were crowded and crowded, and it was really chaotic. It wasn't that she liked peace and quiet, but she couldn't help but get agitated when there were many people.

The convoy of the Ning'an Marquis Mansion consisted of two master cars, with compartments and walls, a roof on top, and screens on the windows. Wen Ningzhi, Wen Yingxuan, and her aunt were sitting in the front. The car behind was Liuli, and Wen Zhiyun and Wen Hongxuan were riding in it.

It is a custom in the Zhao Dynasty that as long as they are relatives, it does not matter if men and women ride in the same car. It is not as perverted as in some dynasties, which requires seven-year-olds to sit on different seats.

The remaining four or five carts were actually flat carts pulled by mules. The maids and servants sat on them. The palace guards and male servants did not have carriages to sit on, so they surrounded their own carriages to protect and prevent crowding.

Because of the commotion in the afternoon, neither Wen Zhiyun nor Wen Hongxuan was interested. Liuli wasn't looking forward to it either, so there was a strange silence in the carriage. Fortunately, the three of them could bear it, and it wasn't too embarrassing.

As soon as they entered the depths of the market, the guard in front ran over and said that the Marquis had already booked a private room in a teahouse on the street. He asked the two young ladies and the eldest son if they wanted to go upstairs to enjoy the moon and lanterns, or to invite a few people to accompany them.

Go ahead and go shopping by yourself.
