Chapter 374 In the new house
Molan only moved her waist. She didn't sit stiffly like other new brides, so that she couldn't sit still.
She heard a low gasp in the room. There were people in the room, and there was more than one. I don't know who it is. I'm sure I can't get used to seeing my body moving around.
Molan heard the low voice in the room, but because the other party's voice was very low, she couldn't hear it clearly. Maybe she was talking about her, but Molan didn't care.
I want to have a banquet outside. Everyone is very lively, but I can't move. I don't know if Xue Lingfeng will be drunk? But looking at his cold appearance, I don't think so. Molan ignored the people in the room and thought about it alone.
I heard that Xue Lingyun came back from the capital, but the little fat man did not come back. It seemed that there was an urgent task, and he couldn't ask for leave.
The old marquis did not come either. The court seemed to be very busy. He couldn't get out of it. The letter said that he had asked the second master to bring a congratulatory gift. The second master left late because of something, and the person who came to report said that it seemed that he could only arrive today.
It seems that there will be a war, otherwise the capital will not be so busy. I hope we can't fight, otherwise it will be the people who suffer.
Molan endured for a minute and a second. In the second half of the day, Xi Niang accompanied Xue Lingfeng into the house. Unexpectedly, no one of his companions came to make trouble in the bridal chamber and watched the bride. It seemed that his cold face really work.
Mo Lan heard a lot of what Xi Niang said. Xue Lingfeng picked up the cover. Mo Lan narrowed her eyes and was always covered by the cover. She suddenly picked it open, and her eyes were a little uncomfortable.
Molan was helped to the table and drank acacia wine with Xue Lingfeng. Before the two could say a word, Xue Lingfeng was called out again.
Molan has no cover, so she can see the house clearly. She has been to this room before and slept for a night, but she decorated it again and became a new house.
Molan looked at the room. There were still four people in the room, two sitting and two standing.
Both of them are not old. They are both twenty-three or four years old. They may be the sister-in-law of Xue Lingfeng's generation in Xuefu.
When Xue Lingfeng came in first, they all avoided the back of the screen. After Xue Lingfeng went out, they came out and sat down again.
The other two standing are the maids. Molan doesn't recognize them. I don't know whether it was Xue Lingfeng's girl or these two sisters-in-law.
Mo Lan looked at the two of them and smiled at them, which was a sign of goodwill.
Both of them also smiled back at Molan, and they didn't look like mean people looking for trouble.
But they didn't say anything, so they didn't know what to say.
Molan looked at the snacks on the table. She was so hungry. When her sister got married, she had the time to eat for her. Erlang married her sister-in-law, and she also gave it to eat. It's her turn. Who will eat for herself? She can't go to the table and pick it up to eat by herself,
What time can I eat? Molan wailed in her heart.
The meal was not called by her, but several guests instead.
Listening to the voice, Molan looked at the people who entered her room. The leader was a woman, about 20 years old, well-dressed, and she came from a good background.
She is followed by three women dressed in the boudoir. The oldest one is about fifteen years old, and the youngest one is eleven or twelve years old. She looks beautiful. She should be a young lady in Xue's house.
There are still a few maids behind, and Molan doesn't know them. She only smiled and didn't get up, because she didn't know the identity of the person.
Seeing them come in, the two women who had been sitting on the stool hurriedly stood up. The woman who rushed into the room and the leader saluted and said, "Good, fourth grandma."
The fourth grandmother hurriedly reached out to hold the two of them and said with a smile, "So are the two sisters-in-law. How many times have you said it? We are all a family. We don't have to be so polite. Isn't it too polite for you?"
Both women laughed and didn't take the fourth grandmother's words seriously. They were just branches of the Xue family, and of course their status was not as good as their own family.
One of the women said, "The fourth grandmother is too polite. The fourth master is an official, and the fourth grandmother is an official lady. How can we compare? Grandma Meng calls her sister-in-law, but we can't lose our moderation.
Looking at the politeness of a few people, the hypocrisy outside the words, Molan has a headache again. What she said in her mouth and thought in her heart is completely two different things. Such a day is really tiring.
After nagging for a while, the fourth grandmother patted her forehead and said, "Look at me, I'm confused. When I saw the two sisters-in-law, I talked about it. I forgot that my sisters were clamouring to see their fifth sister-in-law. I heard that their fifth sister-in-law is a heavenly fragrance,
Her voice was not small. Obviously, she deliberately let Molan hear it, and Molan was not angry. The government is like this. It is normal for the concubines to compete with each other. Besides, she is not a parent, and she will not agree with her. It is not surprising that she stabbed herself in her words.
The people in the room looked at themselves, and Molan was not ashamed. If they wanted to see it, let them see it. Anyway, there would be no missing piece of meat.
"Fourth sister-in-law, I heard people praise our new fifth sister-in-law to the sky. It is said that there are few in the sky and nothing in the ground. Now it seems to be the case. I don't think it's as good-looking as the fourth sister-in-law."
Miss Xuefu, who is thirteen or fourteen years old, opened her mouth.
Molan was happy after listening to it. This is the fourth sister-in-law who flatted them. It's not that she boasts. This fourth sister-in-law is just beautiful. Her appearance is by no means as good as herself. Even if she dresses the same, she can't compare with her sister Momei. It's just a higher status.
The fourth grandmother was satisfied when she heard it. She didn't know that she was not as good as Molan, but she was still happy to be praised like this, especially in front of Molan, she felt that she had a face.
"What Jiumei said, how can the posture of your sister-in-law be comparable to your fifth sister-in-law? Your sister's words have offended your fifth sister-in-law. Why don't you make amends quickly? Your fifth brother treats her as the top of your heart. We have to pay attention to our words. If we don't do something, what should we do? The fourth grandma was talking about Miss Jiu on the surface, but she went to Molan.
"Fourth sister-in-law, the ninth sister is telling the truth. What's the crime to pay for? I also think so. Not only does the fourth sister-in-law come from a good background, but it's even better for us to say that our Xue family married our sister-in-law and came back to Xue's blessing. It doesn't look like... hehe." The oldest lady also spoke. She didn't finish her words, but Molan understood that she looked down on herself.
"Seventh sister, you are the same. The ninth sister is talking nonsense, and you also talk nonsense. How can your sister-in-law be as good as you said." The fourth grandma said politely and looked at Molan proudly with the corners of her eyes, which means that these young ladies in the house are all on the same power as me. You should know the rules when you enter the house and respect me as much as them.
"Sister-in-law, we didn't talk nonsense. Who in the Manchu family doesn't know that the sister-in-law is generous and virtuous? In the future, the sister-in-law will be the head of the family, nine sisters, eleven sisters, don't you think so?" Miss Seven asked their opinions.
Miss Jiu nodded repeatedly, and Miss Eleven smiled shyly and didn't say anything.
The fourth grandmother is proud. I hope that as they said, the person in the future is the head of the Xue family is herself, provided that this fifth grandmother does not compete with herself, but she married early, and her background is better than her. She has taken the lead. She should not be able to compete with her own.
Mo Lan didn't answer or say a word, and she was not angry. She didn't bother to get up and argue. If she argued, she had to salute the other party, and she had to talk a lot.
She is already hungry, so it's better to save some energy. Besides, there is more physical work waiting for her tonight. What are she wasting energy doing with these people? They love to gossip, so they can go as they want.
The fourth grandmother saw Molan sitting in ** as if she hadn't heard their words. She was silent. She was a little discouraged, and they talked about their feelings for a long time in vain.
She rushed to Miss Seven, and Miss Nine winked. Miss Eleven was useless and couldn't count on her. She wanted Miss Seven, and Miss Nine to tlysed Molan again.
Molan saw clearly. She didn't wait for the two ladies to speak. She stood up and walked to the seats of several people.
The fourth grandmother and the seventh and the ninth ladies are happy in their eyes. They can't help but come to distinguish from them. They want Molan to make a sound, and it's better to make trouble, so that everyone will know that the fifth prince has married an ignorant daughter-in-law. Such a daughter-in-law can't work,
Molan took a few steps and arrived at the table. She smiled shyly at several people. Then she sat down, reached out for a snack and opened her mouth to eat.
Everyone in the room was dumbfounded. What's the situation? They are not dazzled, are they? Is there a new bride who doesn't care about eating like this?
Mo Lan didn't care about other people's surprise or how open their mouths were. She just took two bites and drank a cup of tea.
She breathed with satisfaction, and finally had something in her stomach and no longer rebelled.
She glanced at the two maids in the house and said the first sentence when she entered the new house: "Do you have hot water? I'm not used to drinking tea. Can you change some hot water for me?
The two maids were stunned. They really didn't expect their new miry mother to be like this.
One of the maids bent down and said, "Go back to the fifth grandma. Today is a good day for me to marry you. I'm afraid I'm busy in the big kitchen. I'm afraid I won't have hot water. This tea is my favorite. Grandma will take it down first. If I'm not busy, I'll
Molan smiled at her and said that she was in trouble, but she thought to herself: Listening to the tone, this maid is Xue Lingfeng's. I haven't seen it when I came last time. I don't know if it was the original or later who entered this yard as a er.
She didn't take her words to heart. The fourth grandmother and others came in to make fun of her time, and they didn't make a sound to protect her. It seemed that they looked down on themselves in their hearts.
