Powerful ministers are husbands

Chapter 17 Small Contradiction

Although a lot of things happened in the palace, at least they were very happy afterwards, which was much better than the oppressive Cao family.Pang Miao just sighed, there is no time in life that is always good.

Perhaps Cao Lv had greeted his family members, and his older sisters never came to cause trouble, so Pang Miao was happy to hide in Tingsong Courtyard and relax.

In addition to the large study room that cannot be entered without Cao Lv’s consent, there is also a small study room in Tingsong Courtyard. There are many scripts, miscellaneous books, and some books of the outside world. The owner probably bought it out of curiosity. of.Pang Miao had nothing else to do, so he asked Jinxiu to prepare tea and snacks, and sat alone by the window reading a book, while thinking about the Queen Mother's birthday gift.

The night before returning to the imperial capital, he told Cao Lv what Mrs. Wang had said.When Cao Lv asked him to have any ideas, he said that he should just prepare things.

Pang Miao felt that Cao Lv was really a qualified husband. If there were no such unlucky things in her previous life, her sister would be considered happy.It's a pity that in this life, even if life and death are avoided, my sister will not be able to return to the Cao family to be the general's wife.

Flipping through a book about rare and exotic beasts, Pang Miao was interrupted when a melodious singing sounded outside.He put down the book and rubbed the space between his brows, unable to remember what he was thinking just now.

Jinxiu went out to take a look, and snorted coldly with disdain: "Aunt Xiang is practicing her voice, she sounds like a coquette."

Pang Miao didn't care whether Xiang Zhen'er wanted to seduce Cao Lv, he thought hard about the idea just now.The Empress Dowager's post was delivered yesterday, and it's uncertain whether he will be in Cao's house in a month, so it's better to prepare first.I heard that Mrs. Cao has already prepared a gift, but this has nothing to do with him. As a young lady who has just started, he must prepare another one.

Seeing the young master's gloomy look, Jinxiu thought that Xiang Zhen'er's singing made the young master very uncomfortable, so she called two rough women to embolden her, and went to the courtyard to "teach" Xiang Zhen'er.

"Can you stop howling?" Jinxiu stood at the gate of the side courtyard. Since she gained the status and awareness of the maidservant next to the Young Madam, she has become more rigid, but when facing some people, she still lacks confidence. So rough that the mother-in-law couldn't help wiping her sweat.

After a while, Cuiying, Xiang Zhen'er's maid, came out, and when she saw Jinxiu, she simply saluted unhappily, "Why is sister Jinxiu here suddenly?"

Jinxiu pointed in the direction of Tingsongyuan's main room, and asked scoldingly: "You know that Young Madam has been reading for the past two days, can you be more conscious, Aunt Xiang, and don't disturb others?"

Ru Yi inside the house heard the voices outside, and lay down by the window to listen to the commotion.

Cuiying sneered, and looked down on Jinxiu even more, "Our girl is born with a good voice, and those who have heard her sing can never forget to relieve their worries, how can they bother people? Could it be that they are playing the piano to the cow?"

Jinxiu hadn't read any books, so she didn't understand Cuiying's last words, but she faintly felt the other party's ridicule, and retorted: "If you tell Aunt Xiang to stop singing, please stop singing! The young lady is concentrating on preparing a gift for the empress dowager." !"

Cuiying leaned lazily against the courtyard door, with a mocking expression on her face, "It really is so."

The singing finally stopped, and Xiang Zhen'er walked over gracefully, without looking at Jinxiu, "What's the matter? It's noisy, what's the matter, this is the majestic Marquis Cao's Mansion, not Caishikou."

This time, Jinxiu finally understood that the pair of master and servant were sarcasm in the Ming Dynasty, looked at the rough envoy women on the left and right, just as she was about to speak, there was a shout behind her.

"Enough." Pang Miao stood not far away, and did not continue to move forward, "The majestic Jiyang Hou Cao's Mansion is not the Qinglou Chuguan."

When Xiang Zhen'er heard that the young lady compared herself to a singer, her cheeks became hot immediately, and she hurried back to the house with Cuiying.Ru Yi covered her mouth and snickered, and climbed back onto the couch.

Pang Miao beckoned and asked Jinxiu to come back, "It seems that I have to let you read more books, so that you won't suffer because you don't understand the words."

Jinxiu put on a bitter face, "I have never loved reading since I was a child, Miss, please let me go."

"Alas—" Pang Miao shook his head, went back to the room and continued to think of ideas.

In the afternoon, not long after Cao Lu came back from the yamen, Cuiying came to greet the Eighth Young Master with a box of pastries.

"Eighth Young Master, Aunt Xiang accidentally upset the Young Madam this morning, so she made a box of pastries and sent it to the servant girl. She felt ashamed to come to see the Young Madam."

Cao Lv asked: "How can I make the Young Madam unhappy?"

Cuiying's eyes turned red, "The weather is fine today, look at Auntie..."

Cao Lv was impatient, "Just get to the point."

Cuiying trembled all over, and the many words she had prepared were finally reduced to a simple sentence: "Sing to my aunt, but the young lady feels disturbed."

Cao Lv glanced at Pang Miao under the window of the small study, "Tell Xiang Zhen'er that you are not allowed to sing any more. People in the whole family like to be quiet, so don't make it chatter like a brothel, which is annoying."

When the eighth young master said the same thing about her daughter, Cuiying was so sad that she was about to cry, holding the mentality that it was ugly anyway, and it didn't matter if it was too much, she said boldly: "Eighth young master, you also say the same, When the Young Madam scolded her in the morning, Aunt Xiang was so wronged that she didn't want to live anymore, you know, isn't this slandering Aunt's innocence?"

Xiang Zhen'er is a girl from a small family, her family background is clean, and she has a little relationship with distant relatives of the Cao family.In addition, the discipline of the lady is very strict, and the daughter who is taught is educated, reasonable, gentle and quiet in every word and deed. That's why she got into the eyes of Mrs. Cao and accepted her as a concubine for Cao Lv.

Such a girl naturally couldn't allow others to slander her innocence.

Cao Lv didn't pay much attention to it, but thought it was funny, "Oh? Then you think singing in the mansion for no reason to disturb people, what is it like?"

"..." Cuiying didn't dare to answer.

Cao Lv waved his hand, "Go."

Cuiying hung her head down in frustration, and went out, halfway on the way, she was glad that she said that, but the Eighth Young Master didn't mean to blame.

Seeing that Cao Lu didn't come, Xiang Zhen'er was even more dejected. Thinking of going to serve Madam Cao two days ago and taking the opportunity to complain about her grievances, she was scolded by Madam Cao as useless, and hated Pang Wenjun even more in her heart.

On Pang Miao's side, he didn't pay attention but heard the conversation between Cao Lu and Cuiying. He suddenly realized that the sunlight in front of him was not blocked. He raised his head and saw Cao Lu standing in front of the window. He looked over with a smile. Yan's purple robe, an indescribable sense of disobedience.

"Why don't you comfort Xiang Zhen'er?" Pang Miao disliked Cao Lv and blocked the light.

Cao Lv said: "Ma'am, do you want to go there for your husband?"

"I..." Pang Miao realized that he didn't know how to answer. If he said "yes", wouldn't it be a sign that he was at fault today, making Xiang Zhen'er even more savage after his face grew; It seemed that he cared about Cao Lv very much.

Cao Lv lay on the window lattice, tilting his head to look at Pang Miao.

"That's your concubine's room, it's up to you to see it or not." Pang Miao prevaricated.

Cao Lv straightened up, "Alright, alright, I'll go and have a look..." After saying that, he really left.

Just now, he just asked people not to sing in the mansion to ruin the quietness, and then went to visit and care, Cao Lv, Cao Lv...Pang Miao put down his book, and leaned on the window lattice to see if Cao Lv really went to the side courtyard up.

"Haha..." The person who had just left suddenly jumped out and grabbed Pang Miao's arm who was so frightened that he almost fell down.

"You you you..." Pang Miao really didn't know how to evaluate Cao Lu.

Cao Lu narrowed his eyes and smiled, and actually carried him out of the window, "I just know that Mr. Wen actually doesn't want my husband to go to the side courtyard, and he cares about her very much."
