Chapter 28

He is ‘praising others’

Li and Song Baozhu waited for a long time before Song Baichuan left the old lady's room. The two people hiding in the dark walked straight in without waiting for an announcement from Nanny Jing.

Mrs. Song had just sent Song Baichuan away and was about to take a rest when she saw Li and Song Baozhu walking in.

The look on his face was slightly solemn.

"Second daughter-in-law, Baozhu, why are you here?"

The cold tone was a little cold, as if he was blaming them for coming in without informing them, which was a bit unruly.

Li's face was solemn, and she brought Song Baozhu to Mrs. Song as a gift.

"Mother/grandmother!"

Mrs. Song pursed her lips, raised her head and glanced at the chair next to her, "You two, sit down!"

Mrs. Li thanked her for a while and then took Song Baozhu to her seat.

"Why are you free today? Everything in the house is ready?" Mrs. Song looked at Mr. Li. She couldn't directly ask about the birthday banquet, so she could only use this tactful tone.

Mrs. Li naturally knew it in her heart, and said with a smile: "Mom, don't worry, my daughter-in-law is here, I will give you a special birthday banquet."

"Don't be extravagant and wasteful!" Mrs. Song had suffered a lot since she was a child and didn't like those formal things.

Previously, when Song Baichuan came over, she had already been taught a lesson.

He is now a first-class hussar general. If he has gained the reputation of being a good friend of the ministers, it is unclear if he is impeached by someone with intentions.

"My daughter-in-law knows!" Mrs. Li nodded slightly, smiled slightly, and then changed the subject.

"Mother, my daughter-in-law came today because she heard something from the servants in the mansion. She wants to tell you about it and please make your decision."

Nanny Jing came in with several cups of tea, placed them beside Mrs. Song, and then went to deliver them to Mrs. Li and Song Baozhu.

Mrs. Song picked up the teacup, took a small sip, then put the teacup down, looked at Mrs. Li and said, "What's the matter?"

Li pursed her lips in difficulty, glanced at Song Baozhu on the side, and said to her: "Baozhu, it's up to you to speak!"

Even if Mrs. Song felt inappropriate after hearing what the little girl said and got angry, she wouldn't say anything.

Song Baozhu received the signal and nodded slightly.

Facing Mrs. Song, she behaved appropriately.

"Grandma, I don't know if my granddaughter heard it wrong. Someone in the house said that Sister Ling'er went to Zhenbaozhai to buy you a gift and planned to give it to you on your birthday party. But some people said that Ling'er

My sister only bought a peach wood hairpin."

While Song Baozhu was talking, he paid attention to Mrs. Song's expression. Seeing that she had no expression, she acted harder and harder.

"Originally, a peachwood hairpin was not considered worthy of the table, but my granddaughter heard that a peachwood hairpin cost forty taels. She said that the prince asked sister Ling'er to buy it. It was just a peachwood hairpin with a corner missing, and it actually cost 40 taels.

It costs forty taels. This prince is doting on sister Ling'er too much. She is still so young and doesn't know what to do in the future."

Song Baozhu's words hinted that Jun Tingsheng regarded Song Baoling as a fool, otherwise how could a peachwood hairpin cost forty taels.

After Mrs. Song heard this, she frowned and looked angry.

"Zhu'er, are you sure this is true?"

How could Song Baozhu dare to say that he was serious about it? He could only show an uncertain look.

"Grandma, my granddaughter also heard what the servants in the house said. If it is true, you can ask the prince to find out. The prince is so good to Ling'er, so don't flatter him..."

Hearing the word 'praise to kill', Mrs. Song's expression changed instantly, and she immediately ordered to Nanny Jing who was standing aside: "Go and ask the prince to come over, and tell him that I have something to ask him!

"

Grandma Jing felt blessed and walked out in response.

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Mrs. Li also knew that she could not stay long, so she stood up with Song Baozhu and looked at Mrs. Song with a smile.

"Mother, since you and the prince have something to talk about, my daughter-in-law and Zhu'er will not bother you here."

Mrs. Song narrowed her eyes and pursed her lips.

"Go! The prince is a foreigner after all. It's really inconvenient for you to be here."

As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Song couldn't help but sneered in her heart. She still knew about Li's little thoughts.

While stirring up trouble, I don't want to get into trouble.

Mrs. Li pretended not to see the cold solemnity flashing in Mrs. Song's eyes, blessed her with blessings, and left Songyue Hall with Song Baozhu.

In the garden, Song Baozhu looked at Li with some uneasiness.

"Mom, do you think grandma can see our thoughts?"

"What do you think?"

Li Shi snorted softly, and a narrow smile flashed across her narrow eyes, "Your grandmother has been the mistress of the house for so many years, and she was born as a rich lady. How could your mother's little tricks be hidden from her eyes?

."

"Then why does grandma still..."

"She did it just in case."

After all, it was his birthday party. If something happened, it would be Song Jia's face that would be lost.

Mrs. Song cares so much, so naturally she cannot allow such a thing to happen.

"Maybe he won't drive Jun Tingsheng away, but at least he got some eye drops from the old lady. He should also think about how to act in the Song Mansion in the future."

Song Baozhu pouted with a look of pity on his face.

"Actually, the Crown Prince is quite good, at least there are not many young masters as handsome and handsome as him in the whole capital."

Li turned around and saw that her daughter's eyes were full of spring. A coldness suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she scolded sternly: "Jun Tingsheng is not someone you can think of. Don't have such thoughts again."

Song Baozhu pursed her lips. Although she didn't understand, she nodded meekly.

"Mom, I know!"

My mother didn't like her daughter very much to begin with. If she wanted to have a good home, she couldn't disobey her.

What kind of family she will marry into in the future is all a matter of her words.

Li nodded with satisfaction and took Song Baozhu back to the south courtyard.

She has also thought about her daughter's thoughts, but Jun Tingsheng is not something she can control. Besides, although King Chengyang is a prince, he is far away in the fiefdom, a place where birds do not lay eggs, so what is the benefit of marrying there.

Of course, if you want to find it, you have to look for it in the capital.

When Jun Tingsheng learned that Mrs. Song wanted to see him, he immediately followed Nanny Jing to Songyue Hall.

"Meet the old lady!"

Madam Song nodded, raised her hand and said, "You're welcome, Your Majesty, please take a seat."

Jun Tingsheng nodded slightly and sat down below Mrs. Song.

"I wonder if the old lady has invited this junior to come over, but is there anything important?"

Mrs. Song didn't mince words and said directly: "Your Majesty, I was walking in the yard today and heard several servants gossiping that you persuaded Ling'er to spend a lot of money to buy a peach wood hairpin for me.

As a gift, it is said that the peach wood hairpin is still defective, I wonder if this is true or not?"

When Jun Tingsheng heard Mrs. Song's words, he immediately frowned, with some displeasure in his eyes.

"Does the old lady dislike Ling'er's courtesy?"

"Of course not!"
