Fingertip dandy, the Republic of China Jia women want to start a career

"Where do you want to go?" Li Shaowen asked.

"Let's go to Siniang's tea room, I don't know if there is any dinner there."

"Let her transform without me." Shao Wen laughed.Seeing her sitting beside her, he couldn't help but marvel at her magical power. It was the first time in the world that he let himself escape from the house impulsively.

Summer is here, even in the evening, Jiangcheng is famous for its heat, and you will sweat profusely even if you stand for a while, even if there are lush forests and bamboos, it will not reduce the heat much.

There is a coolness in the tea room, there are large basins of ice on the shelves in the room, and the ceiling fan is turning flickeringly, naturally there is a cool breeze in the small house.

"Cook us something to eat, and bring some of your lady boss's specialty dishes." Shao Wen laughed.

The servant girl backed away.

"You shouldn't have brought me out today. If you don't attend your brother's wedding banquet, how will the family treat us? Mother should find fault with me again. I want to bear it or bear it. Maybe we can go back quickly." Zhi Lan Said with a bit of worry.

Shaowen thought of his younger brother, Shaowu, who was not interested in doing business and taught music at Yangde Middle School in the city.The two had a deep relationship since they were young, and they didn't want it to become like this after they each married their wives.

He has already let go of his words, and he has always kept his promises, so how is it possible to go back!He waved his hand in annoyance: "It's already here. Now I think it's too late to go back to the wedding banquet. Who in the family can chew our tongues? It's against them. I advocate pulling you out. What else can mother find fault with you? You Put your heart in your stomach and make good use of this meal."

Si Niang fried a few special dishes and served them herself, she looked much more charming than the last time I saw her, when she saw Shao Wen and Zhi Lan, she just mentioned: "Eldest young master and young mistress, why are you here with me? The newspaper said that today is not the marriage of the second young master of your mansion."

Zhilan winked at her, the shrewd Si Niang swallowed half of the words, put the food and hurriedly retreated.

After eating in the tea room, the wedding banquet had been over for a long time. In everyone's eyes, the petite girl was hugged by Li Shaowen, like a vine attached to his big tree, and she returned to the new house.This made Zhilan feel that she has support in the Li family for the first time after marriage.

What was surprising was that the relationship between her and Li Shaowen improved a lot that night. It was strange to say that he seemed to be sympathetic to her, and it seemed that she had relaxed her heart, and her pain had been greatly relieved. Zhuo Zhilan kissed and kissed again, and her movements were much slower.

Waking up the next day and looking at the messy bed, Zhilan covered her face in shame, Shaowen kissed her on the cheek, after breakfast Shaowen was still at work, Zhilan came to say hello to Wan Xinqiao, Wan Xinqiao let her aside Sitting down, she didn't embarrass herself in public anymore, she was temporarily relieved.

"Mother, did you sleep well yesterday?" Jing Ru arrived before the sound came, her hair was coiled up, and she was wearing a cheongsam embroidered with hundreds of flowers, which made her look more and more charming.

"I slept well. On the contrary, you and Shaowu's room has newly laid quilts. Is it hot when you sleep at night? Is it the habit of living at home when you first come to the house? Just tell Butler Fu what you want to eat, and let the kitchen do it."

"I don't need anything, mother, you have made the most thoughtful arrangements." Jingru smiled while pinching her handkerchief.

"Now that you are married to Shaowu, the housekeeper will be handed over to you in the future. Zhilan, you hand over the roster given to you by Steward Fu to Jingru."

"Yes, mother." Zhilan was not surprised, originally, her mother only let her get acquainted with the family members.

Zhilan was originally sitting on the sidelines like a spectator. In an excellent play, even if the actors themselves were intoxicated, the spectators couldn't help themselves. She knew that her mother-in-law didn't like her, and she didn't want to watch their mother-in-law's intimate scenes anymore, so she just used the excuse to get the roster , stood up and saluted, and without waiting for Wan Xinqiao to reply, he took his leave and left.

Jingru looked at her back, proud of herself, what she couldn't get, she couldn't let Zhilan get it.

"Look at you, your temper is getting stronger." Wan Xinqiao said angrily, "I haven't allowed her to go yet, Jingru, you don't know how angry I was yesterday, Shaowen never disobeyed me, she always Just marry in?"

"Mother, please calm down. Although she is my cousin, I am a helper and not a relative. In my opinion, brother Shaowen spoils her too much. If this continues, sooner or later she will climb up on your head and make trouble. Then you will try to control her." , isn’t it easy? Mother, you need to remind Brother Shaowen more.”

"You Brother Shaowen is also stubborn, he may not listen to me if I say too much, alas..."

"Mother, you don't know something. After all, brother Shaowen is in charge of outsiders, so he can't cover everything. It's still up to you to take care of the family."

"Right, right! Jingru, you thought it through. I really regret letting Shaowen marry this catastrophe. It's just because of this catastrophe. Look at their brothers... Shaowen didn't even attend your wedding banquet. .I know that even though Shaowu didn't say anything, he still feels uncomfortable, and you, as a wife, need to relieve him."

"Mom, I will."

At this moment, Zhilan interrupted their routine with the roster, and she handed the roster to Jingru.

"Mother told me to do it." Zhi Lan said coldly.

But Wan Xinqiao, who was complaining about her words, was listened to by Zhi Lan, and Wei Wei shut up.

"Mom, you are wrong. First, I don't care about your Li family insisting on clinging to the door. You don't have to scold me one by one. Second, why Shaowen didn't attend his brother's wedding banquet? He told you yesterday what he meant. Yes, mother, you know best in your heart that my daughter-in-law feels the need to remind you." Zhilan said neither humble nor overbearing, "My daughter-in-law has retired."

"You, you, you..." A few words made Wan Xinqiao so angry that Jing Ru hurriedly asked the maid to bring ginseng tea, and she herself fed Wan Xinqiao with a small spoon.Although she knew that Zhilan had a personality, she had learned it when she was in Liyuan Pavilion against Yuehua, but she never expected that she would dare to talk back to Wan Xinqiao.

After Zhilan finished speaking, she felt a lot of joy in her heart. When she heard Wan Xinqiao talk about her words when she delivered the brochure, she suddenly became angry, and the emotions that had been suppressed for many days burst out in an instant.

Yan Cui worriedly said: "Miss, if you refute Madam's face like this, it may be bad for you if it spreads."

"It's been said and done, so what's the use? It's even more cheap to hide and hide things. If you can't break it, you can't stand it, otherwise you will get sick sooner or later."

But who knows who made the rumor on purpose, and the talk back spread like a storm in the family in less than half a day.

Zhilan didn't expect to make a fuss, and news came that Wan Xinqiao was so angry that her old illness relapsed and was bedridden. She panicked and sent Shuanghua to inquire.

Shuanghua came back to report: "I was going to go into the room to say hello, but I was kicked out by the second young lady. I saw that the maids were in a hurry, and the second young lady sent someone to invite the master and the doctor. See It is true that Mrs. Lai is sick in bed."

Zhilan was shocked when she heard this, she forced Yancui to ask Li Shaowen to come back quickly.

Not long after Yancui left, Master Li hurried back, Zhilan paced the room in a hurry, sweating profusely, deeply regretting that she only wanted to have fun with her mouth, and she couldn't bear it and really messed up the big plan.After thinking about it, she still took the initiative to go to Wan Xinqiao's room to confess her mistakes and apologize.

Shuanghua accompanied her into Wan Xinqiao's room. She, Master Li, the doctor, Jingru and Shaowu were all by Wan Xinqiao's bedside, and the servants were on standby at any time.

"Let her go out, I don't want to see her!" Wan Xinqiao lay down and opened her eyes and saw Zhi Lan, and became emotional.

"Daughter-in-law, you go out first." Master Li got up and said, his tone was gentle but he could hear a bit of reproach.

Zhilan took Shuanghua out of the room, and was walking to the entrance of the hall when Li Shaowen rushed in.

"What's the matter with you?" He saw her and said, "What trouble did you cause me at home?"

Zhilan remained silent, and Li Shaowen hurried to Wan Xinqiao's room to visit his mother.

The doctor came and prescribed some medicines to regulate qi and blood, and told Wan Xinqiao to stay in bed for a month because of her old illness, and she should not get angry anymore.

Master Li said to Shaowen: "It doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong, since your mother doesn't want to see Zhilan, please tell the eldest daughter-in-law not to appear in front of your mother for a month."

"Yes, dad." Li Shaowen didn't want to be so troublesome after marriage, "I'll go and tell her."

He went out of the room to the new house, Zhilan was fidgeting, just waiting for Shaowen to come.

"How could your mother be so angry that her old illness relapsed?" Shaowen sat down and said with displeasure, "I just asked Meier, the maid next to my mother, and now I want to hear your explanation."

Zhilan explained: "I didn't know that my mother had an old illness. My mother just said that I was a disaster star. I was upset and contradicted her a few words. I didn't expect this to happen. I didn't want to."

"Why are you so narrow-minded and can't bear it? You say a few words without losing a piece of meat. Why do you have to be quick with your tongue." Li Shaowen scolded, "I also know that you have been wronged at home, but now you are fighting openly. Others seem to think that you are reasonable and you have become unreasonable. Don't go to see your mother again, the doctor said to let her rest for a month."

Zhilan was disappointed and said: "I thought you were always on my side. Ever since I entered your Li family, I have been cautious every day, for fear of not doing well, but no matter what I do, I will not get your mother's approval." , since that’s the case, I can’t help it.”

"That's your problem." Li Shaowen said lightly, "After all, you are the eldest mistress of the family, so take care of what you should take care of, don't always worry about it, and be more generous."

"I'm not arrogant?" Zhilan got Shaowen's conclusion and said angrily, "Okay. Since you said I care about it! Then it's okay if I don't dare to care about it? I don't dare to delay your young master Li's work. What you said I understand, please go back."

"Is it worth it to tell you that you are so angry?" Li Shaowen was enraged by her words, and he got up and walked away.

Zhilan cried on the table, but Shuanghua Yancui couldn't persuade her.She regretted it. If the marriage was like this, she would have desperately wanted to be with Mu Qing back then. The little affection she had just sprouted for Shao Wen was shattered by the ruthless reality.

Zhilan became more and more silent, eating alone and going back to the room alone.In the evening, Shaowen wanted to talk to her, like hitting cotton. There was only one topic that made her raise her eyebrows, and that was Yuehua's wedding date.The Zhou family sent an invitation, and it will be this Saturday.

"Mother is sick now. Father wants us to attend with Shaowu and his wife."

"You can arrange it." Zhilan replied.

Li Shaowen looked at her in the cold war, sighed deeply, and came to grab her hand: "I was wrong during the day, I shouldn't say that about you, I didn't understand your situation and mood at all, I was too impatient, don't Are you mad at me?"

"Our marriage was a mistake. No one in your family likes me. They all think I'm an intruder and destroyer. If my sister is the best candidate for your Li family's young mistress from the beginning to the end, what am I?" Zhilan smiled wryly.

"Lan'er, don't underestimate yourself. Let's go to your elder brother's wedding on the weekend. We have the right to relax." Li Shaowen took her into his arms distressedly.

She and Wan Xinqiao didn't see each other, but it was a temporary peace.
