Chapter 114 Too Difficult

Chapter 114 Too difficult

After Xu Chaoyang and Ran Wuyang left, Mrs. Zhao asked: "Can these two people really succeed? Especially the one named Ran, he is very arrogant!"

Wan Zhentian said warmly: "Anyone with some ability is more arrogant. Madam, please bear with me."

Mrs. Xiao Zhao said: "Okay, for your sake, I will bear with you."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Zhao glanced at the hourglass on the chest of drawers and said, "It's getting late. I'll come back first. After everything is done, I'll send someone over to let you know."

Wan Zhentian stood up and said, "Okay, I'll see Madam off."

Mrs. Zhao returned to Qili Street and asked upon entering the mansion: "Is Sister He in the mansion?"

The servant replied: "Go back to Madam, the second young lady has not gone out today, she is at the house."

Mrs. Xiao Zhao nodded and ordered: "Ask Sister He to come to Lingyun Garden to see me."

The servant bowed in agreement, took two steps back and turned around to go to Cuiwei Garden.

Mrs. Xiao Zhao returned to Lingyun Garden, and after a while, Ning He came over with the maid and her mother-in-law.

After seeing the ceremony, Ning He asked directly: "Auntie, what's the matter with Xun He'er?"

Mrs. Xiao Zhao raised her head and looked at Nanny Qin. Nanny Qin understood and took the maid and the old woman down, closed the door and stood guard at the door.

When Mrs. Zhao saw the door closed, she asked, "He'er, how are you getting along with Miss Yang San recently?"

Ning He didn't understand why his mother asked so, and replied: "Very good, we had a gathering together the day before yesterday. Why did my mother ask?"

Mrs. Xiao Zhao said: "I see that Miss Yang San is a nice person and a sincere person. He'er should have a good relationship with her. Do you understand?"

Ning He smiled and nodded, "Yes, my daughter understands. The day before yesterday, when we had a gathering at Fanlou, we met the Fifth Miss of Liu Xiang's Mansion by chance. Miss Yang San even introduced Miss Liu to her daughter."

Mrs. Zhao asked in surprise: "The fifth lady of Prime Minister Liu's Mansion? The legitimate daughter of Deputy Minister Liu of the Privy Council?"

Ning He nodded and said: "That's her. Miss Yang San said that Miss Liu Wu is the legitimate daughter of Deputy Ambassador Liu. She is very popular with Liu Xiang in the Prime Minister's Mansion and is also favored by the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine often recruits Miss Liu Wu into the palace.

say."

Mrs. Zhao's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she asked: "He'er, you met by chance in Fanlou. Did Miss Liu Wu play with you? You girl, why didn't you tell your mother about such a big thing when you came back?"

"

Ning He curled his lips aggrievedly, "When I came back the day before yesterday, my daughter wanted to tell her mother, but her mother went to her grandfather's house and came back very late. When my daughter came to look for her mother yesterday, her mother had already gone out..."

Mrs. Xiao Zhao thought that in order to deal with Ning Wei, she had been too busy these days to take care of her family. "I'm sorry, my mother has been a little busy these days. Has Miss Liu Wu played with you?"

Ning He nodded, "Miss Liu Wu is very easy-going. She also said that it's rare for us to meet each other and it would be more fun if we all play together.

Miss Liu Wu also asked the waiter to change to a larger private room, gathered the two groups together, and played until very late. By the way, Miss Liu Wu also asked her daughter to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to enjoy the flowers on the 20th.

.”

"Really?" Mrs. Zhao stood up excitedly.

Ning He looked up at Mrs. Zhao, nodded heavily and said, "Really, the maid next to Miss Liu Wu has sent a message today."

Mrs. Xiao Zhao felt excited when she heard this. She clapped her daughter's hand and said, "Very good. The legitimate daughter of the prime minister is also the niece of the imperial concubine. This is a real noble daughter and she will definitely marry into the royal family in the future.

Such a person is born with a golden key in his mouth. He'er must seize the opportunity and make good friends with Miss Liu Wu. This is an excellent opportunity for you. Do you understand?"

Ning He nodded, "Yes, my daughter understands."

Mrs. Zhao looked at her well-behaved daughter and felt happy again.

Then I worried that my daughter was too young and didn't know how to deal with the world. I was afraid that my daughter would fall in love with Miss Liu Wu and neglect Miss Yang San.

He hurriedly warned her sincerely: "Miss Liu Wu must try our best to make friends with her, and Miss Yang San cannot be left in the cold. Do you understand?"

Ning He knew what her mother was worried about and said with a smile: "Don't worry, mother, my daughter and Xin Ye have been friends for many years. We are more than sisters if not sisters. Even if we get to know Miss Liu Wu, my daughter will not neglect Xin Ye."

Mrs. Zhao patted Ning He on the shoulder happily, "My dear daughter, that's right.

A Niang told you that getting along with others is very delicate. You should not be rude because of familiarity. When you usually interact with Miss Yang San, you should treat her better than before you met Miss Liu Wu. In this way, she will not think too much and understand.

?"

Ning He didn't quite understand what her mother said, but her mother's heart was always towards her and she wished her well. She nodded in understanding, "Thank you, mother, for your advice. My daughter understands."

Seeing that her daughter was well-behaved and sensible, Mrs. Zhao was in a good mood. She turned around and took out a few banknotes from the dowry and handed them over.

"Sister He, keep it. I'll ask Miss Yang San to go shopping tomorrow. Buy her some things that Miss Yang San likes."

Ning He happily accepted the banknote, hugged Mrs. Zhao, rubbed his face against Mrs. Zhao's face, and said coquettishly: "Thank you so much, Mom! Mom is so nice."

Mrs. Zhao smiled and said: "I am your mother-in-law, can I be bad?"

"That's right! My grandma is the best grandma in the world."

Mrs. Xiao Zhao looked down at Ning He and warned: "When you go shopping tomorrow, you can check from the side and see if the Yang family has sent any posts to Baoping Lane?"

Ning He suppressed his smile, let go of his hand, looked at Mrs. Zhao and asked, "Are you worried about meeting grandma and the others at the banquet?"

Mrs. Zhao picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, then said slowly: "I'm not worried about meeting your grandmother.

Your grandmother and others live in Baoping Lane, and outsiders won't say anything in front of me. Behind my back, I'm afraid they will say a lot of unpleasant things.

Ning Yu is a disciple of Bachelor Yang. For such an important banquet for the Yang family, your grandmother and others should be attending the banquet.

I thought I would take this opportunity to ease the relationship with your grandmother and the others.

Also, Sister Wei, Brother Qing wanted to marry her before, and he was sincere.

Now that something happened to Brother Qing, we naturally can't let Sister Wei marry her, but Sister Wei doesn't live in the house, and I don't even have a chance to explain.

Outsiders don't know our family's affairs and have said a lot of unpleasant things. I also want to take the opportunity to explain it clearly to Sister Wei to prevent her from misunderstanding me.

Well, I hope outsiders see that our family is harmonious."

After hearing what Mrs. Xiao Zhao said, Ning He was extremely moved. He put his arms around Mrs. Zhao and said heartbrokenly: "My mother is really worried about our family. Thank you for your hard work, He'er."

Xiao Zhao's wife Ren Ninghe hugged her and sighed: "Oh, it doesn't matter if I work hard. As long as the family can be in harmony, it's worth my hard work."

Ning He nodded, "My mother made it for the family. Grandma will definitely see it one day and will definitely thank her for her efforts."

Mrs. Zhao smiled softly, "I don't ask her to thank you. As long as she finds my faults from time to time, I will be very grateful."

Ning He smiled and said some flattering words, and then said: "Tomorrow I will ask Xinye to see if grandma and the others have replied to Yang Mansion. With grandma's temperament, she should have replied long ago."

Mrs. Xiao Zhao warned: "He'er, just inquire from the side, don't ask deliberately, do you understand?"

Ning He just thought that her mother couldn't put her face down and showed weakness to her grandmother, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, mom, my daughter knows what's going on."

Early the next morning, Ning He sent someone to Yang's house to deliver a message asking Miss Yang San to go shopping.

In the Yang Mansion, Yang Yanqing, a great scholar of Yang State, had a younger sister and a younger brother. His younger sister died of illness ten years ago, and his younger brother Yang Yanheng was twenty years older than him.

Mrs. Qin is the daughter of Master Yang’s mentor. The two were a young couple, and they have been together through thick and thin for decades, and they are very loving.

Scholar Yang never took a concubine and stayed with Mrs. Qin all his life.

They have three sons and one daughter, the eldest son Yang Haoxin, the eldest daughter Yang Xinfang, the second son Yang Haoliang, and the youngest Yang Haozhuo.

Compared with the dedicated affection of Bachelor Yang, Yang Yanheng was much more sentimental. Of course, Yang Yanheng was sentimental, and his first wife, Luo Shi, was indispensable.

Yang Yanheng married Luo Wenxuan, the daughter of Luo Yuanzhou and Luo Shaoqing of Taipu Temple. Two years later, Luo gave Yang Yanheng her maid Jinxin and raised her as her aunt, known as Aunt Xin.

Later, Luo took in two concubines for Yang Yanheng. Therefore, Yang Yanheng had far more children than his brother Yang Yanqing.

The only legitimate sons and daughters born to Luo were Yang Haoran and Yang Xinye.

Yang Haoran and Yang Haozhuo were born in the same year, and Yang Haozhuo was three months older, making him the third eldest child in the Yang family.

Above Yang Xinye, there are Yang Xinfang who has a big family, and Yang Xinfen who was born to Aunt Xin, so she is called Miss Yang San.

As it was Mrs. Qin's sixtieth birthday, Yang Yanheng was appointed as a foreign minister in the Yang family. Yang Haoxin and Yang Haoliang took advantage of their family leave to return to Beijing with their families to celebrate Mrs. Qin's birthday.

Yang Yanheng and Yang Haoxin were of the same year, and both were Jinshi in the second year of Yongping.

In the second year of Yongping, shortly after the new emperor ascended the throne, the new emperor made many drastic changes in the court, and there were great changes in the officials in the court.

The scientific examination in the second year of Yongping was the first batch of disciples of the new emperor. The new emperor entrusted them with important responsibilities and selected many scholars from the first and second grades to serve in other places.

Yang Yanheng and Yang Haoxin were selected by the new emperor at the same time.

At that time, Yang Yanqing was sent to Qingzhou to be the county magistrate. It took eighteen years to go from the original county magistrate to the current magistrate of Hangzhou.

Mrs. Luo was worried that her concubine would develop a crush on Yang Yanheng, so she stayed with her husband in office all these years.

When the children grow up to seven or eight years old, they are sent back to the capital, and they are reunited with Yang Yanqing only when he returns to the capital to report on his work or visit relatives.

The big family, who usually live far apart, rarely get together, so naturally they have endless things to talk about, and they keep chatting until the time comes before they disperse.

Because they rested late at night, Mrs. Qin said that there was no need to greet them tomorrow morning, and breakfast would be delivered to their respective courtyards by servants.

When Ning He handed in the note, Yang Xinye was having breakfast with his mother, Mrs. Luo, in Ruyi Garden.

Mrs. Luo took the post from the servant, opened it, took a look, and asked: "Ning He? The daughter of Ning Yuanwai Lang of the Qili Street Works Department?"

Mrs. Luo returned to the capital and already learned from her servants who her daughter's usual friends were.

Yang Xinye glanced at her mother guiltily, lowered her head and replied cautiously: "Back to mother, yes!"

Mrs. Luo didn't want her daughter to have a good relationship with the daughter of a member of the Communist Party of China. She wanted to scold her, but when she looked up, she saw a guarded look on her face.

Not wanting to have a conflict with her daughter as soon as she returned to the house, Mrs. Luo swallowed the words that were about to come to her lips.

He just said lightly: "Since Miss Ning Er has come forward to make an appointment, you can go shopping and come back after a short time.

There is a happy event in the house, and there are many things going on. You are the lady in the house, so you should help.

Besides, Sister Han and Sister Zhao have just returned to the capital, and as aunt, you should spend time with them."

Yang Xinye didn't expect her mother to agree to her going out, so she was surprised and happy at the same time.

Xu Shi hadn't spent time with her mother in several years. When facing her mother, she was extremely frightened and so nervous that she didn't know how to place her arms and legs.

Fortunately, Sister He came to post, and fortunately her mother allowed her to go out.

Yang Xinye got Mrs. Luo's permission and hurriedly said: "Yes, thank you so much, my daughter understands."

Mrs. Luo was very angry when she saw her daughter's joy after the disaster.

I just wanted to get angry, but then I thought about how the mother and daughter had an unpleasant quarrel when they first met. If the master knew about it, he would be unhappy.

Mrs. Luo endured it and said, "Go!"

Yang Xinye hurriedly said goodbye and left Ruyi Garden quickly.

Mrs. Luo looked at the back of Yang Xinye leaving in a hurry, feeling a deep sense of frustration in her heart.

Aunt Fang, who was next to Mrs. Luo, saw her and comforted her: "Madam, please relax. It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I'm still a little uncomfortable with it. After we get along with you for a few more days, I will naturally get close to you."

Mrs. Luo sighed slightly and said, "I hope the master can be transferred back to Beijing. In this way, I can stay with Sister Ye and Brother Ran."

After hearing Mrs. Luo's words, Grandma Fang was extremely surprised. The Third Master was about to attend the Autumn Palace, and then he would attend the Spring Palace at the beginning of the new year.

Aunt Fang thought that when she returned to Beijing this time, Madam would stay until the end of the third master's spring. She never expected that Madam's thoughts were only on the Master.

Although Grandma Fang was extremely shocked in her heart, she did not dare to show it on her face.

He just smiled and said with relief: "My master has made outstanding achievements in politics over the years, so I should have a chance to be transferred back to the capital.

It just so happens that there is a happy event in the house right now, and Madam can take this opportunity to make friends with some ladies from wealthy families. Then there will be many opportunities."

Mrs. Luo nodded and said, "I think so too. Let's take advantage of the banquet in the house to talk to the ladies of each family."

Aunt Fang looked around, leaned close to Mrs. Luo and whispered: "Madam, you can also tell me. The old lady has been in Beijing. I will definitely know who can help."

When the old lady was mentioned, Madam Luo's face suddenly sank, and she snorted coldly: "Sister-in-law? Let's forget it.

Haoxin also wants to be transferred back to the capital this year. She has connections, do you think she will give it to her own son or to her brother-in-law?"

Aunt Fang looked at Mrs. Luo blankly, not knowing what to say. She felt sorry for her husband.

Then he sighed secretly and thought to himself, everyone says that old people are lucky, but why is my own father so lucky?

His parents died before he was an adult, so he had to grow up with the help of his brother and sister-in-law.

When other children encounter trouble, they can ask their parents to act coquettishly.

When something happened to my master, he was afraid of being disliked by his brothers and sister-in-law, so he could only hide it in his heart and dare not speak out.

With my own efforts, I have reached this point... Alas, it is too difficult for my master.
