Reborn ten times, she is the real daughter of the Marquis Mansion and she doesn't pretend anymo
Chapter 101 I am sorry to refuse
"What? I can't teach you anymore!" Princess Kangning put the teacup in her hand down heavily, and the tea splashed everywhere.
"Someone, come and beat this princess!"
"Enough!" Marquis Yong'an's face was gloomy, and anger was surging in his eyes.
Hearing his shout, the maidservants who were hesitating and not daring to move forward were so frightened that they immediately lowered their heads and dared not move.
"Father and mother-in-law, you saw it, right? This is how she treated my own daughter!"
"On the day Tang'er returned home, she didn't even see him. She just had him taken to a remote and dilapidated courtyard near Tangfeng Courtyard. She didn't give him any furniture, curtains, clothes, or jewelry."
"Xue'er brought two boxes of old clothes, old rouge and old jewelry to show off her power, and even had people smash Tang'er's Taoist altar."
"Everyone in the mansion knew about this, and it even alerted the Shuntian prefect and Yang Yushi to come. The three of us were in the yard at the time and saw the two boxes of things. This is not nonsense."
"Xue'er did those rude things. As a father and the head of the family, shouldn't I punish her? As a result, the princess quarreled with me that night, and took Xue'er to Prince Cheng's mansion the next day! She didn't come back until the family recognition banquet was about to start!"
Marquis Yong'an took the opportunity to complain, and also hinted at the Cheng Palace's indifference to Yuntang, but he could only say so much.
"When Xue'er made a mistake, I only grounded her and made her copy a few chapters of the Tao Te Ching. I never beat or scolded her. Her life in the mansion has never changed. Yet she still feels wronged!"
"Look at how the princess treats Tang'er. She gets slapped in the face as soon as she opens her mouth!"
"Is this teaching rules? This is a grudge against the child!"
Marquis Yong'an kept talking, feeling very angry.
Prince Cheng was also disgraced by his son-in-law's accusation. He sat there with a stern face and said nothing.
Princess Cheng looked at this, looked at that, and then looked at the little Taoist priest standing there...her own granddaughter.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something to ease the atmosphere, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.
Yuntang put his hands in his sleeves, looked at the people sitting at the top with an indifferent expression, and said nothing more.
She did it on purpose just now. She didn't want to come up and start a false greeting with these people to show how loving they were.
Finally, it was Princess Cheng who spoke. She looked at the people standing in the hall and said with a kind smile, "The children just came back from Prince Qi's mansion, right?"
Jiang Yanxuan, with a gloomy face, then spoke to explain his purpose.
"Grandma, that's right. My brothers and sisters heard that grandpa and grandma were in Jinhuatang, so they came to visit them, but..."
When Jiang Yanxuan said this, he looked at Jiang Yingxue, who was still looking aggrieved and uneasy, with dissatisfaction.
Although he didn't say the rest of the words, his attitude showed that he agreed with what Yuntang had just said.
"Okay, Xue'er's mistake was unintentional, so don't keep dwelling on it."
Princess Cheng glared at Jiang Yanxuan unhappily, then smiled again and looked at everyone else.
"Your filial piety has been felt by your grandmother. It's getting late, you should all go back and rest."
Princess Cheng smiled and said, "Your second aunt is going to hold a winter banquet in a few days. You all should go and have fun. The invitation will be sent to the second and third wives by then."
Jiang Yanxuan was about to respond when Yuntang suddenly spoke.
"The day after tomorrow is the birthday banquet for the old lady of the Duke of Wei's Mansion, and two days later is the full moon banquet for the eldest grandson of the Jingbei General's Mansion."
Putting aside other things, these two things are very important. By the way, it is also a reminder to Princess Cheng that if she wants to host a banquet for her daughter-in-law, she should at least avoid these two days.
Not only was Princess Cheng surprised by her words, but even Prince Cheng raised his head and looked at her.
"Tang'er reminded me that grandma should go back and ask your second aunt what day it is. Your second aunt shouldn't be so careless."
Princess Cheng did not ask directly if this was Yuntang, nor did she exchange any other pleasantries. She went straight to talking about the banquet, and her conversation with Yuntang was like a normal family conversation.
Yuntang didn't talk back to her, but just smiled and stopped talking.
Princess Cheng saw that although Yuntang was not reserved, he also did not show any excitement or uneasiness as if he had just met his grandmother. There was even no emotion in his eyes.
Princess Cheng suddenly turned around and gave instructions to the head maid beside her. The head maid hurried out and came back with a few maids carrying trays.
Two of the trays contained a pair of carved gold bracelets, while the other trays contained several exquisitely shaped inkstones.
Princess Cheng smiled apologetically and said, "I came in a hurry today and was unable to prepare any decent gifts for you. I hope you don't mind. Take them all."
Princess Cheng's words were very casual and polite. After all, she was the elder, so it was reasonable for her to give gifts to the younger generations when she came to the mansion. Didn't Yuntang also give gifts to the princes and princesses?
However, no one else moved, and the four sisters even moved closer to Yuntang.
Finally, Jiang Yanyu stepped forward and bowed, saying, "I dare not refuse the gift from my elders. I will accept the reward from the princess on behalf of my brothers and sisters."
Jiang Yanyu is the third brother and the eldest son of the second wife. Now the elders of the first wife have given them gifts, and he can speak on behalf of his younger brothers and sisters from the second and third wives.
If I refuse directly, it will only embarrass Princess Cheng and deepen the conflict.
They are just a gold bracelet and an inkstone. How can they be more valuable than the gift my elder sister gave them? Just accept them. If I want to attend a banquet at Prince Chenghe's mansion later, I will ask my mother to prepare more gifts.
With him coming forward, the others hurriedly bowed and expressed their gratitude, not daring to say a single extra word.
After taking the things, all eyes turned to Yuntang.
Yuntang looked back at them and signaled with his eyes that they could leave.
All these gifts just now were limited and Yuntang had no part in them.
Although Jiang Yanlang was standing nearby, he also didn't have any. It was obviously prepared for the children of the second and third rooms of the Marquis' Mansion.
So everyone knew that their mission here had been completed, and they would have to go to Songhe Hall next.
After they bowed and left, Jiang Yanlang was about to leave in silence, but Princess Cheng stopped him.
"Lang'er, you haven't visited your grandmother for a long time. Are you busy recently?"
"Replying to Grandmother, I have been studying in the Shangshufang recently. After school, I also copied and recited Taoist scriptures with everyone at the Third Prince's place."
Jiang Yanlang walked back and replied with his head down.
At this time, the head maid came in with a few more maids. On one tray were two jade pendants, on another tray was a pair of jade bracelets, and on another tray was a set of gold-inlaid jade headwear.
"Those two jade pendants are for you two brothers, and the jade bracelet and gold headpiece are for Tang'er." Princess Cheng said.
"Thank you, grandma." Jiang Yanlang bowed and thanked her, but did not reach out to take it.
Jiang Yanxuan glanced at Yuntang first, hinting that she should accept the gift.
Yun Tang smiled and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Princess. I'm sorry to refuse your gift."
Jiang Yanlang stared at the ground and his eyes twitched, thinking: Here it comes again!
My sister once said that this is always the case when talking to outsiders.
Therefore, my sister treats my grandmother as an outsider...
