Chapter 39 A meeting gift for my daughter-in-law
Sitting on the carriage returning to the Marquis Mansion, Ruan Zhen lowered his eyes and looked at the touch of jade on Hao's wrist, unable to return to his senses for a long time.
This bracelet is really valuable, how can she accept it?
But when he was about to return it, Sheng Wan became cold-faced and said bluntly: "Just keep what I gave you. If I, Sheng Wan, want to give it away, there is no reason why I can't give it away."
Ruan Zhen really couldn't figure out what Sheng Wan meant.
If she wanted to make Mrs. Xu angry, Sheng Wan had no reason to be so kind to her and even wanted to stay at home to eat.
this……
——This is more like a meeting gift for my daughter-in-law.
Ridiculous ideas flashed through her mind, but she felt they were too pretentious.
Ruan Zhen pursed her lips, her heart felt clogged and she didn't want to think about it anymore.
She doesn't want to think about it, but that doesn't mean others won't make things difficult for her.
The carriage ran over the ground and stopped in front of the palace gate. Ruan Zhen got out of the carriage using a footstool.
I saw Mrs. Shen who was waiting beside Mrs. Fan, and she came up to her with a smile.
"The girl is finally back. The old lady has been waiting for a long time."
As he spoke, he glanced at the carriage with the wooden sign of Duke Dingguo's residence engraved on it.
The driver said respectfully to Ruan Zhen: "The little one has gone back."
Ruan Zhen smiled lightly: "Thank you very much."
The coachman turned around.
Ruan Zhen then looked at her mother-in-law: "Let's go."
Mrs. Fan wanted to see her because Mrs. Xu came back and said something.
However, Xu, who prides himself on being smart and good-looking, suffered even more in front of Sheng Wan this time. He would definitely not mention anything about Fanshan Temple in front of Mrs. Fan.
Ruan Zhen walked around the winding corridor and entered Mrs. Fan's yard with gentle steps.
Inside, Mrs. Xu was still grieving.
"Grandma, it's just that she doesn't take her daughter-in-law seriously, but she doesn't take our entire palace seriously."
Mrs. Fan couldn't bear to hear this. Her face turned gloomy and ugly.
But thinking of Gu Huaizhi who was still in the palace, he could only swallow his anger down his throat.
"She just gave birth to a promising son. If Gu Huaizhi doesn't survive this time, how proud will she be?"
"Gu Huaizhi has been a troublemaker in recent years. He has made the prince's party restrain their hands. He has offended more than one Chi family. Look, there are more than two families who are looking forward to his death."
As she spoke, her cloudy eyes narrowed: "There is no news from the palace so far. I'm afraid it won't work this time."
Mrs. Fan's words made Mrs. Xu feel quite relieved.
Just as she was about to say something, she saw the curtain was lifted open and Ruan Zhen bent down slightly and walked in.
Mrs. Xu immediately sat up straight and stared at her coldly.
"To win the favor of the Duke and Madam, you are quite capable."
Mrs. Fan also frowned. The Duke's Mansion and their Marquis Mansion were not in the same place. She selfishly didn't want to get too close.
Mrs. Shen, who was leading the way, walked behind her and muttered a few words.
Mrs. Xu stood close and listened clearly.
Mrs. Fan immediately frowned: "You came back in a state carriage? That person Sheng Wan has always had a bad temper and is not so kind. I don't understand how you caught her eye?"
Ruan Zhen listened to the two people's questioning and felt ridiculous for the first time.
Also very tired.
Looking at Mrs. Xu's arrogant look, she completely forgot that she was scolded for being shameless and ran away.
Ruan Zhen doesn't mind and gives her memories.
She is blessed with good health, please say hello.
He whispered: "This is the first time I've seen him, and it's really hard to understand."
"It's just...," she paused for a moment, glanced at Mr. Xu, then quickly lowered her eyes and fell silent.
Mrs. Fan squinted her eyes and became suspicious.
This Xu family is also a troublemaker, could it be...
"Say!" She put down the teacup heavily.
There was a 'bang' and tea splashed everywhere.
Mrs. Fan became angry.
Mrs. Xu's heart skipped a beat. She immediately stood up and said with a flustered expression, "Grandma."
Seeing this, Mrs. Fan didn't understand anything.
She scolded: "Ruan Zhen, I order you to tell me!"
Ruan Zhen seemed to be frightened, and her body trembled. Her fingers as white as jade squeezed the handkerchief tightly.
"This time the Duke's Mansion was successful in rescuing us. No matter what happens, the Duke's Mansion will remain standing."
She ignored Mrs. Xu's expression of being able to eat people: "It's just that this time the Master of the Sheng family is displeased, but my sister-in-law has offended the Duke's wife again."
She weighed the pros and cons implicitly.
Sure enough, Mrs. Fan's face turned darker with these words.
She didn't dare to touch Sheng Wan's misfortune, but now she just sent Mrs. Xu for a trip, so she offended someone?
This kind of person actually has the nerve to come in front of her and ask for a medium payment?
How did the Xu family raise such a brainless daughter!
She felt unhappy and got angry just looking at Mr. Xu.
Mrs. Xu didn't dare to speak at this moment. She could only block Ruan Zhen's mouth.
She knew that Ruan Zhen's mouth could either act as a mute, or it could make people die.
Mrs. Fan loves Fan Kun the most.
Now Fan Kun has a smooth official career and has joined the prince's family again, but he married a fool like Xu. Mrs. Fan had a headache.
Out of sight, out of mind: "Everyone, go down."
Xu's rare obedience: "Grandma."
"I'll let you go down!"
Mrs. Fan breathed heavily and entered the inner room with a dark face.
Mrs. Shen, the confidant who was serving beside her, quickly followed in.
Mrs. Fan looked out the window and saw Mrs. Xu walking along the narrow path with an angry look on her face. She pushed Ruan Zhen angrily.
The chicken intestines with small belly do not have the bearing of a clan wife at all.
Mrs. Fan's head hurts even more.
"If I had known that Xu's daughter was so virtuous, I would never have allowed her to come in."
Mrs. Shen patted her back to help her calm down.
"Young lady is still young and needs to be taught slowly by you, Master."
Mrs. Fan was angry: "I teach? I don't dare! Last time I only punished her by copying the girl's ring ten times, but her mother came to support her. The Xu family is so impressive!"
As she spoke, a haze flashed across her wrinkled face: "When the prince ascends the throne, brother Kun will be embarrassed in front of the saints. By then, it will be the Xu family's turn to make trouble in front of me."
By that time, she would definitely let Fan Kun divorce this stupid Xu family.
Mrs. Shen lowered her voice and said, "Then this time the young lady said that my cousin is valued by the Duke and Madam, is it true?"
Mrs. Fan sneered: "How can you still believe such words? Who is she Sheng Wan? I can't even look down on Ruan Zhen's charming virtues, let alone her."
He just used Ruan Zhen's excuse to take the opportunity to slap Mrs. Xu in the face.
"By the way, you ask the people from the Embroidery Pavilion to measure Ruan Zhen. You should prepare the clothes for the Flower Festival early."
She wanted to sell Ruan Zhen a 'good price'.
"Then Madam's side..."
Hearing this, Mrs. Fan snorted coldly: "I haven't settled the score with her yet! How can this matter be settled like this? Now that the prince is grounded, which family is keeping their heads down and keeping silent, but she is better."
