I don't know if it was for Huo'er's sake, but Mrs. Hou's rigid face when she faced Lie Yan softened slightly.
Seeing this change, Mrs. Li couldn't help but frowned.
She specially invited Mrs. Hou to come to Mu's house to deal with Lie Yan.
Mrs. Hou was a person whom Mrs. Li had always known well. She was a rigid and serious old lady who could not hold a grain of sand out of her eyes. She attached great importance to the concept of etiquette and education.
What Mrs. Hou hates most is things like Lie Yan, "vixens taking over".
According to Mrs. Hou's method, she shouldn't be so gentle. Mrs. Li secretly squeezed her palms, filled with resentment in her heart.
She also wanted to take Madam Hou's attention away from Huo'er, but unfortunately, Madam Hou held Huo'er's hand and asked questions, but she couldn't get the words to say anything.
After finally waiting for the old lady to finish asking her question, Li was about to say something when she saw the old lady turned around and looked at Mu Tiankuang with a smile on her face, "Tian Kuang, you are so stupid
The child is really well raised. He is sensible, clever and smart. Look, such a tiny little person really knows everything."
"Old lady, don't praise him too much." Mu Tiankuang responded lightly, not appearing particularly affectionate.
Madam Hou knew that he had a cold temperament, so she didn't take it to heart. She just smiled and nodded, glancing at Lie Yan from the corner of her eyes, "You all recognize your ancestors and return to your clan?"
"Well, as witnessed by the elders, I have gone to the ancestral hall to worship."
"What day was chosen for the wedding banquet?"
Mu Tiankuang was startled for a moment, then said cautiously, "We plan to go back to Red Maple Continent and try again."
"Nonsense!" Mrs. Hou became unhappy on the spot and slapped the table and scolded in a low voice, "This child was not stolen. Who would have known that you had married a wife and had children without a wedding banquet? As the young master of the Mu family, you,
How can you hide something as important as getting married and having children so that no one knows about it?"
"It's not...I..." Who the hell is hiding me? I wish I could tell the world! Isn't this what our family meant?
He also understands Yan's thoughts, doesn't he look down on people like the Mu family?
What's there to show off? With such a happy wedding, she naturally likes to go to Liehuo Manor to show off.
Mu Tiankuang would never object to his wife's ideas, so he would just agree to whatever Lie Yan said and would not care whether it was unreasonable or not.
Even if the elders are displeased, they will only say a few words to him. The elders all know that his temperament is that once he makes a decision, he will not listen to what others say. Besides, who has the leisure to think about him every day? To put it bluntly,
The elders are used to being submissive to this young master who has ideas.
The elders didn't read it, but the old lady did it this time. The old lady can also quote you scriptures. Starting from the eighteenth generation of your ancestors, talk about it, talk about it, and talk about it until now. Let's talk about not having a wedding banquet.
Disloyalty, unfilial piety, unbenevolence and unrighteousness have been linked. Not serving wine is disrespectful to the ancestors! Not serving wine means that the etiquette is not fulfilled. If the etiquette is not fulfilled, then it is not a formal Mu family. How can our family tolerate such a thing?
What about grievances?
There is so much going on, just because Huo'er "has been wronged"!
When the old lady was talking eloquently, Lie Yan blinked at Mu Tiankuan. Of course, Mu Tiankuan also wanted to interrupt the old lady, but where did he interrupt? The old lady was just a chatterbox.
That's called endless.
Huo'er waited for the old lady to finish speaking, then hurriedly took a cup of tea and handed it to the old lady, shouting crisply, "Grandma, drink tea."
But the old lady was so happy that she hugged the fire and kept calling her sweetheart.
Lieyan twitched the corner of his mouth.
Her son, he understood that the tea given to the old lady must have been spiked. Otherwise, how could this kid be so kind?
Sure enough, the old lady stood up dizzy within a minute, and was helped back drowsily. It is said that she didn't eat dinner that night, so she fell asleep.
After the old lady was helped away, Lie Yan couldn't help crying or laughing. He called his son in front of him, glared at him and scolded him, "Tell me, why did you drug your grandma?"
"She is so annoying." The son blinked his eyes and looked at her cutely and said, "He kept talking and talking, and my father's face was wrinkled into a bitter melon, and my mother's eyes almost blinked out. The old lady was still
It’s so annoying to talk all the time!”
"It's so annoying!" Doubao also nodded, "I've never seen such an annoying old lady. If my mother hadn't taught us not to bully the weak, I would have wanted to slap the old lady unconscious in the morning!"
Lieyan:……
"The old lady is old, so it's normal for her to be verbose. Even so, how can you drug the old lady? In the future, if my mother gets older and she also becomes verbose, will you still want to?
Are you going to attack your mother?"
"Mother doesn't know that!" Huo'er said emphatically, "But even if mother becomes verbose, Huo'er won't drug her. How can the old lady compare with mother?
"
Although Lie Yan found it funny, he still said with a straight face, "Although the old lady is verbose, she is also really kind to Huo'er. Huo'er, you have to remember that no matter who he is, if he treats you sincerely, you have to return the favor."
Be sincere. In this way, you will have more and more friends around you. Think about it, if my grandmother found out what happened today, how heartbroken she would be?"
Huo'er flattened her mouth and said, "My mother-in-law is not good to my mother, she is cruel to my mother, and she even mutters about my father."
Lieyan pinched his little nose in a funny and touching way, "I've already said that this is a conflict between adults. You are a child, so you don't need to pay attention to it. For example, mother and father, from now on
Quarreling or fighting is also a matter between mother and father. Huo'er should not get involved. Huo'er is a child, and children only need to enjoy the love that adults have for you. All the things between adults
We adults will naturally deal with conflicts..."
"Daughter-in-law, I will not scold you, let alone beat you." Mu Tiankuang suddenly said this, causing Lieyan's words to get stuck in his throat.
I couldn't help but laugh and looked back at him, "I'm just giving you an example!"
"I can't even give you an example! It's impossible to happen." Mutian Kuang ran to the mother and son, stretched out his hand to hold Lie Yan's little hand, "I don't hit my wife!"
"Huo'er will never hit his wife in the future!"
"Huo'er, you're doing well!" Doubao's adoring gaze made little Comrade Huo'er's tail instantly rise to the sky.
Lieyan looked at the father and son speechlessly, and even more speechlessly glanced at Doubao.
This little thing, Doubao, is admiring Huo'er more and more. It seems that everything Huo'er says is right. This naughty kid is really too shameless...
Early the next morning, Huo'er was picked up by his father and ran to find three supreme elders to practice.
Without his son's interruption, Lieyan slept until about three o'clock in the morning.
It wasn't until the sound of crackling firecrackers came from outside the door that she woke up in a daze.
There was a loud knock on the door, and the maid who knocked on the door kept making noise and shouted loudly, "Young Madam, Young Madam, someone is coming from the palace. The master of the house invites you and the young master to go to the front hall to greet the Queen Mother.
Here. Young Madam, your servant is coming in right now!"
The Queen Mother’s decree?
Lieyan woke up from his dazed state in an instant, and several maids outside the door had already pushed in and brought in clean water and some toiletries.
Lieyan opened the quilt with a swipe, wearing only a white coat, and moved down from the couch lightly. There was a touch of coldness on his cold face, and he looked at a little maid next to him and said, "How long have you been here?"
The little maid's heart skipped a beat and she thought to herself: The young lady looks so cool and noble!
"Young Madam, the people from the palace have arrived not long ago!"
"Young madam, has the young master gone to the three supreme elders again? If so, we have to send someone over to invite the young master back as soon as possible." Fusao, the wife in charge of the house, stepped into the door with eyes and heels on the top of her head.
As if, he didn't say hello to Lie Yan, but just said something to her side.
Lie Yan glanced at her coldly, unwilling to get angry with the servant, lest the price drop.
As for these servants who are jumping up and down and having second thoughts, she will deal with them one by one later.
Let them play around for a few days first, and then wait until she has time and leisure to sort things out slowly.
In this small Tianhengyuan, there are also some cunning minions who only take money and do nothing. Some are more domineering, while others rely on the connections in the house and the backstage! The rich sister-in-law in front of me belongs to the latter
, Her husband, Brother Fu, is the chief steward in the family master's garden. He usually has a lot of money and money, and because he works beside the family master, he is very arrogant.
It was because of this relationship that the rich sister-in-law was able to take the position of the housekeeper. Although she only managed a small Tianheng Garden, although she did not have as much money as the owner's garden, it was not much less.
Just the tribute paid by the servants below every month is enough for this woman to spend for a month.
If there is someone who refuses to follow the path and pay tribute, then fine, all the dirty and hard work from now on will be yours!
Although Lie Yan had only been in contact with them for a few days, he knew very clearly which one of them was honest and which one was arrogant.
The rich lady in charge is about to reach her end!
"Don't ask me about this, just go and do it." Lie Yan said coldly, letting the two little maids help her comb her long hair.
"Yes, young lady." The rich sister-in-law nodded and bowed respectfully. When she turned around, her mouth was crooked and she muttered to herself, "What's so great! Isn't it just a person?"
A woman who enters a house with her son will soon..."
