Chapter 176 Chrysanthemum Countermeasures
The queen nodded: "Do you have anything to say about Duoduo's background?"
Mingfei shook her head. What else can I say? Now Zhan Lengze has married Princess Xingqing of Venus. It's not easy for Duoduo to want to recognize her ancestors. Moreover, the Empress knows very well that Yan Ji has always rejected this matter. This time, Zhan Lengze got married, and I'm afraid she will completely break this idea.
The queen didn't say a word, but she was much calmer.
The Empress Ming will return to the palace tomorrow, and the banquet house will naturally be in a hurry.
But after this busy and noisy, the old and young went up to the banquet and went down to the second room, and the old and young were very panicked.
In the chrysanthemum garden, a lamp is like a bean, and everyone is anxious.
"Old lady." Cailian came in and said, "The marquis is back."
It was Rou'er who came back, and Yan Mingde's drooping head suddenly raised, as if he had caught a life-saving straw.
Jooer, the old lady nodded.
Yan Rouer took off her windbreaker and gave it to the close maid Qinger.
"Old lady, my granddaughter heard that the Empress Ming will leave the palace and return home tomorrow, so she specially came back to have a look."
Yan Shuanger was open-mouthed and said angrily, "Sister Rouer, you should know that this little aunt who flew up to the branch as a phoenix came back to help Yan Ji deal with us. What's there is nothing to be happy about?"
Yan Mingde sighed and said, "It's not only that the Empress Ming came back, but also the wife of Shangshu Mansion who returned to Ning Province."
The second lady snorted coldly. For so many years, she has not moved. When the banquet house was in danger, they gloated and did not help. Now they come back for an unfilial daughter.
The old lady closed her eyes and said in a low voice, "They will come back if they want to come back, but this banquet house is still my old woman."
Yan Rouer said lightly, "Grandma, you are the head of the family, which is obvious to all, but no one can tell what the pattern it will be after the Empress and the Princess comes back. Mingfei is not an ordinary person. If she supports Yan Ji behind her back, then we have no chance of winning at all. "
Yan Hong said angrily, "Grandma, we can't give in a little concession in this matter, otherwise, the seat of the mother of the Yan family will really change."
"Shut up." Yan Mingde scolded harshly, and a sneer appeared at the corners of Yan Rou's mouth.
The old lady stood up tremblingly and walked to the door of the hall step by step. The dark night was clear. Her turbid eyes were full of gloom. Even if she changed owners, she would never be the girl Yan Ji. Whoever disobeyed his designated successor would die.
"I have been waiting in this banquet courtyard for decades. Mrs. Yan turned around, the corners of her mouth**, and the silver hair coiled on her head showed an indescribable majesty. Whether it was the noble concubine who gave it to the Empress or the wife, or the daughter she married, who can't get along with my wife, he is really overwhelmed. ."
Yan Rouer was stunned. Today, the old lady said this, which is by no means a bold talk. A woman can support the banquet mansion for decades. It is definitely not so simple. She has paid attention to every corner of here. Even everyone here is a pawn in her hand.
"Old Lady." Yan Rouer asked tentatively, "Then what should we do next?"
The old lady slowed down and had no words. It was too early to discuss everything. The Empress Ming's intention to come back was obvious, but this was not his bright moon in the palace. What should she do? Listen to him, the stepmother, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
But the stepmother is also a mother. Even if he becomes a noble concubine, it still depends on his mother's face when he comes back.
The second lady said with some embarrassment, "Old lady, when the master was arrested last time, we also went to the palace to ask for Concubine Ming, but he didn't even see him. This time, when he came back, it was obviously colluded with Yan Ji to seize power."
Yan Mingde stared at her. It's really a pot that doesn't open the pot. The old lady is angry. Isn't it adding fuel to the fire?
At this time, Yan Xueer stood up indifferently, walked to her grandmother, and helped her very attentively and said, "Grandma, we will respond to this matter unchanged. Whether it is the wife or the Ming concubine, it is a married daughter. It is a matter of our own family. This matter is Even if you sue in front of the emperor, it will not be of any good.
"More importantly, as long as they propose to take charge of Yan Ji, then we will make a big fuss about her unmarried birth. A mother-in-law who represents the rise and fall of the family can't be her indiscre turn as an unfilial daughter."
"Sier is right." The old lady is very supportive.
Yan Rouer smiled slightly. She usually felt that Xueer had no ability, but what she didn't expect was that this matter was really a little scheming. No matter how strong the Empress Mingfei was, she could not beat the honor of Yanfu.
If it's true, you will die. No one's face looks good.
"Yes, yes." Yan Rouer stood up with a smile and said, "Xue'er is right. This family still needs your grandmother to support it. Even if you find a replacement, you have to be satisfied first."
Yan Mingde was very happy to hear this. His mother had already intended to pass on this position to herself. This time, the time was finally ripe.
However, those who come back to Yan's house at this time are all people who want to get a piece of the pie. Yan Mingde knows very well that Yan Rouer is naturally not a fuel-efficient lamp.
After sitting down, the old lady looked at some people in front of her and said, "Don't worry, on the other side of the big room, Yan Mingyuan naturally dares not say anything. The idle clouds and wild cranes do not want to interfere in family affairs. Although the old lady is ambitious, I have cut off his hands and feet for so many years, and I can't become a climate. One banquet girl and the other is ignorant. , how can we give this position of today's beloved mother to her for those who live in our family?
"After Concubine Ming comes back, no matter what tricks she does, you listen to me. Unless my old woman agrees, no one will think about the seat in this banquet house."
Yan Rouer glanced at the person in the second room. Yan Mingde bowed her head and said nothing, while Yan Xueer secretly glanced at her. The two eyes collided. Not only was there no embarrassment, but also more hostility that refused to give up.
"Oc's it, let's all go. We have to cheer up and do things tomorrow."
Yan Mingde attentively helped his mother into the inner room. Yan Rouer put on her cloak and walked out of the chrysanthemum hall. As soon as she stepped out of the courtyard, Yan Xueer stopped her when she passed the small garden.
"Sister Rouer, it's too late today. Why don't you stay here?" Yan Xueer is very simple, and it seems that there is no hostility at all.
"No." Yan Rouer shook her head and said, "I appreciate your kindness."
Yan Xueer nodded: "Yes, the marquis's mansion also needs her sister's care. My sister is really blessed. Although she is not from a very good background, she is also married to a rich family. Her husband loves her and her father-in-law is satisfied. Even your sister-in-law, Princess Bailing, is very happy to buy you. My sister is really exquisite."
After these words, Yan Rouer still couldn't help being angry. She was not from a good background and exquisite on all sides. Yan Xueer was deliberately provoking.
"Sister Cher." Rou'er stepped forward and said, "I, a concubine from a bad background, still have the opportunity to marry into the marquis's mansion, so you, the eldest daughter, must also work hard. Otherwise, you may really lose the face of your exquisite father."
Tooth for tat, Yan Rouer does not give in.
"Thank you for your concern. My sister will definitely remember my sister's words and must marry better than my sister."
Yan Rouer is ridiculous about Yan Xueer's ignorant ideas and married into a rich family. Is it something you can do with your mouth? You, a yellow-haired girl, don't even dare to be arrogant here without the qualification to enter. Isn't it ignorance?
Yan Rouer was too lazy to take care of it. She turned around and left, and was stopped by Yan Xueer.
"Sister, don't be in a hurry to leave. I haven't finished saying something yet.
Qing'er glanced at Yan Xueer unplealy. Such a low-class guy actually called his wife, which was simply looking for death.
"Xueer, what do you want to say? I'm not interested at all. Don't forget that I'm the wife of the marquis's mansion. The rise and fall of the banquet house, it has nothing to do with me."
"Is that really the case?" Yan Xueer turned around and stared at her, "Sister Rou'er, you really have a lot of confidence after marrying a woman, but I think you should know better than me when you return from the stars and night."
Yan Rouer coveting the property of the banquet house is not a matter of a day or two. It's really what he said, so what to do with so attentiveness, not to mention that he and Yan Ji are so unfacilable. When they come back, it is obviously unhappy to find it.
"Sister, grandma just said that the water spilled out by this married daughter is not yours. Don't be delusional, otherwise, I'm afraid you will lift a stone and hit yourself in the foot."
Yan Rouer smiled, took a long breath, and looked up at this cousin who was several years younger than herself.
"Xueer, you are very smart. Don't talk about the water spilled out of my ladle. Isn't it the same that the water hasn't been spilled out yet? Do you think the old woman passed on the seat of the master to your father? I don't know?"
"But Xueer, your father must be able to hold it, otherwise, this seat will still be taken away by others at that time."
"Sister, you don't worry about this. Even if my father can't keep it, my eldest brother and second brother, you are the eldest grandson and the most qualified, aren't you?"
The two sons of Yan Mingde pretended to be human in front of people, but they always do something that can't stand on the table. I don't have the ability, and the small one is not much better. If you hate to give the banquet house to these prodigal sons, you are really sorry for the ancestors.
"Well, do you think they can hold on?" Yan Rouer took a step forward, with a somewhat scary tone. Yan Xueer couldn't help taking a step back.
"You." Yan Xueer obviously lacks confidence, "Even if my brothers can't keep it, they won't make you cheaper."
Yan Rouer sneered, "I'm afraid it's not my turn, Xueer, don't forget that this Yanji is bigger than my ability. I advise you that with this kung fu, it's better to think about how to deal with Yan Ji with your father. Do you understand?"
