Chapter 2 Fighting fiercely

After listening to Leng Changxi's words, Ruyi's forced smile solidified on his face, and Tang's face became extremely embarrassed. Instead, he saw Qin Yunuan, who followed Leng Changxi, dressed like an easy-going person. He immediately greeted him and took Qin Yunuan's hand and said, "Yo, this is Ping Princess, it's really a good person. I like it when I look at it.

"It's okay if Aunt Tang likes it," Leng Changxi said coldly, and his cold eyes shot out of the black mask, with a kind of austerity. "The most important thing is that the mother and concubine likes it. After all, Yu Nuan is the daughter-in-law of the mother. Aunt Tang, your own daughter-in-law are standing on the side."

Leng Changxi's words were straightforward and sharp, which made Tang's enthusiasm, who originally wanted to put on a good face, suddenly dissipate. Princess Ning sat on the half-old dark green collapse and leaned against the pillow, but just smiled very gently. She did not stop Leng Changxi from working with the Tang family so obviously, because she had never liked it. Happy with this wall grass Tang.

At that time, when Princess Ning had not yet married, the Ning Palace was the side concubine Cao Shuxin alone. The Tang family was attached to Cao side concubine in every way, and not long after she married, the Tang family wagged its tail to surrender and told Cao sidefei about the private affairs and all the weaknesses. Fortunately, at that time, she After listening to the words of the wet nurse, I know that such a person who is so flattered is absolutely untrustworthy. Sooner or later she can betray others like this, she will betray you.

Therefore, for so many years, although Princess Ning has been the mistress of Ning's mansion, she has always kept a proper distance from Concubine Cao and Aunt Tang. If she can't fight, it is also a good way to hide. This is what Princess Ning's wet nurse has taught Princess Ning since she was a child.

"Don't remember my sister," Princess Ning said with a smile and said to Tang, "Changxi has been spoiled by me since he was a child, and he always speaks so directly." The implication is that Princess Ning also agrees with Leng Changxi.

"Directly good, directly good." Tang sat down awkwardly.

Ruan Ruyi still didn't give up. She said to Princess Ning with a shy face, "That mother, what my daughter-in-law just said, do you think... can you?"

"You mean about those shops in the east of the city?" Princess Ning looked suddenly enlightened.

"Yes," Ruan Ruyi said shamelessly, "Although the shop was from the West Mansion at the beginning, it has been poorly managed in recent years, and it has been sent by people from the East House to take care of it. It's better for us to run it ourselves, so as not to make it cheaper in the West House for nothing. Mother, please say yes."

Ruyi's mouth of the Western Mansion is actually the second house of the King of Ning Mansion. Today, Leng Zhongxiao, the brother of the King of Ning. According to the usual practice, Leng Zhongxiao should have separated the house early and become independent. However, Leng Zhongxiao is lazy and acts a little reckless. The King of Ning is really worried about this brother and is in Ning. A quarter of the courtyard of the royal family was allocated to the younger brother and sister-in-law to live in, which is called the West House. Although the two houses are in the same house, the relationship does not seem to be as close as expected. It is probably because the second master of the Western Mansion is too troublesome, which always gives King Ning a headache.

Take the first few shops in the east of the city as an example. The original location is good, the transportation is convenient, and it is a good place to make money. However, there is a jewelry store, a satin village and a rice grain shop. Originally, they were all profitable businesses. As soon as the second master of Xifu took over, he lost a lot of blood. At no loss, thanks to Princess Ning secretly sending her mother's family to take care of it, it has only improved in recent years, but this is a little better, and she is targeted by the flies in the house. The first to be the Tang family and her shrewd daughter-in-law, Ruan Ruyi.

"Well, that makes sense." Princess Ning nodded. When she was about to show a happy expression on Ruyi's face, Princess Ning turned around and said, "It just so that I haven't prepared a gift for Yu Nuan. In this case, I will take care of these shops to Yu Nuan, and treat them as a gift for this new daughter-in-law. After all, the fat water does not flow. Outsider Tian, right?

Qin Yunuan was slightly stunned and felt that the hostile eyes of Tang and Ruan Ruyi shot straight over like a steel knife. She knew that their calculations had failed and would definitely blame her, but she had also been psychologically prepared. Since she decided to marry Ningwang Mansion, she was destined to meet them. For some competition.

Qin Yunu raised her head generously, but smiled at Ruan Ruyi and Tang: "Sister-in-law, Aunt Tang, that's really embarrassing." After saying that, he saluted Princess Ning dignifiedly: "Thank you, my mother. Yu Nuan likes this gift very much."

Seeing that Qin Yunuan not only did not retreat because of the fear of power, but also accepted her kindness generously and happily, Princess Ning nodded with great satisfaction and said to Ruan Ruyi and Tang, "What's wrong? Apart from this, what else do you want to discuss with me?"

Ruan Ruyi and Tang are both shrinking their heads.

"Okay, since there is nothing else to do, let's go back first. Now I'm also tired. Changxi and Yu Nuan stay and talk to me." This obviously means to have a private chat with your son and daughter-in-law. After all, there must be a gap between the two courtyards.

Seeing Ruan Ruyi and Tang's unwillingness to retreat, Qin Yunuan just looked back and smiled at Princess Ning. Princess Ning's maids sometimes privately said that Princess Ning was too kind to fight, so they made Aunt Tang and Concubine Cao so arrogant, but Qin Yunuan felt that Princess Ning pretended to be stupid. Pretised to be extremely smart, or in other words, Princess Ning is very clear about the stakes of various matters. She loses a little in small things, adheres to principles in big things, and makes a steady profit.

"Come on, sit down." Looking at Qin Yunuan's calm and well-behaved appearance, Princess Ning couldn't help beckoning Qin Yunuan and pulling her to sit next to her side. Such an intimate and natural action suddenly made Qin Yunuan have an illusion, as if her mother called her to bed when she was a child and watched her mother's embroidery.

Princess Ning slanted her body, changed to a more leisurely and comfortable posture, and took Qin Yunuan's hand and put it in her hand with a smile: "I heard Changxi talk about your background." Princess Ning said.

Qin Yunuan subconsciously glanced at Leng Changxi, who was sitting next to him and drinking tea. She knew that the relationship between Leng Changxi and Princess Ning had always been close. Leng Changxi would say this to Princess Ning, but Qin Yu Nuan was afraid. She was afraid that there would be a grudge in Princess Ning's heart. For a long time, Qin Yunuan had been pointed at and scolded for embroidery. Even if her mother's daughter is now given the title of a princess, if Princess Ning also has such an idea...

"It's really pitiful," Princess Ning touched Qin Yunuan's face lovingly, and the soft palm of her hand with a kind of mother's love and warmth. "When I think of your daughter's house alone in the lieutenant's mansion, I must have suffered a lot. "

Princess Ning's tone is sincere, full of sincere pity. Qin Yunuan can hear it and knows how to judge.

Qin Yunuan lowered her head slightly, only glanced at Leng Changxi, and said softly, "Now Yunuan has come to the end of bitterness." Yes, I met Leng Changxi and met so many good people. The ending in this life is much better than that in my previous life. Now the only thing Qin Yunuan is worried about is Baochuan. Fortunately, there is also Aunt Chang in the captain's mansion to take care of him. There are always many good people in the world, Qin Yunuan firmly believes.

"Okay, it's good to have a good time." Princess Ning smiled kindly and turned her head to Qingzhu, the big maid beside her, and said, "Go and bring me the meeting gift I have prepared."

"The shops in between are already..."

"That's what coaxed them," Princess Ning smiled. "The woman Changxi likes, how can Changxi's wife only have those few shops?" Princess Ning said as she took a palm-sized brocade box handed over by Qingzhu and handed it to Qin Yu Nuannuan.

"Open it and have a look." Princess Ning said.

Qin Yunuan lowered her head and carefully opened the royal blue brocade box. There was a copper key on the red soft velvet cotton cloth inside, and a red rope was still held on the key head, which seemed to be a sign of what he had done.

"This is the secondary key to the account room of Ningwang Mansion." Princess Ning simply said.

"Mother, what is Yu Nuan's ability?" Qin Yunuan was really flattered. This was just the first day. Princess Ning handed over the key to the account that was in charge of the financial expenditure income of the whole Ningwang Mansion. The surprise was like falling from the sky, which surprised Qin Yu Nuan.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse," Princess Ning pushed the key back into Qin Yunuan's hand with a smile. "This key is naturally not given to you in plain. You first hand me over to the shop you took care of for a month. I'll see how it works. After all, this is just the secondary key of the account room. Without my key, you How about not being able to manage the accounting room?

This is a challenge and an opportunity. What's more, Princess Ning's trust and active closeness to Qin Yunuan. Qin Yunuan has no reason to refuse.

"Thank you, mother." Qin Yunuan accepted it calmly.

After talking for a while, Leng Changxi still had military affairs to deal with and left first. When Qin Yunuan went out, it was almost noon. There was no one around. Even the sparrows knew how to go back to the nest to escape the summer heat quickly, but when he came to the corridor, Qin Yu Nuan saw a familiar figure far away. .

"Three brothers and sisters." Seeing Qin Yunuan approaching, Ruyi took the initiative to greet her. Her hair had been wet on her forehead. She didn't know how long she had been waiting under the hot sun. She seemed to be prepared.

"Why is my sister-in-law waiting for someone here? Look at this day, the sun is so that people are going to faint. Qin Yunuan clearly knew that Ruan Ruyi was waiting for herself, but she didn't make it clear. She had to wait for Ruan Ruyi to speak.
