Chapter 210 The Hero Saves the Beauty(1/2)
"If you think it's ugly, don't eat it!" After saying that, Empress Dowager Dong turned her face and looked angry, but her eyes couldn't stop looking at Rong Jin. A bunch of small moves were completely different from the Empress Dowager who was just high, like a child who had not grown up, so cute.
Mu Yunqing thought that her mother-in-law seemed to be a big arrogant person.
When facing a person with this personality, he had to follow her as much as possible. Unexpectedly, Rong Jin was not right. After hearing the words of Empress Dowager Dong, he really wanted to be as if he had been amnesty. He was rarely obedient and obedient.
"Yes, I won't eat it." He said, even putting his hand on his knees and sitting upright, not even looking at the snacks.
The implication is: I do think it looks ugly.
Queen Mother Dong: "..." Is it really her who was such an annoying son? Can she lose it directly?
Mu Yunqing: "..." Is such a disgusting husband really hers? Can you please return the goods?
Miss Mu looked at Empress Dowager Dong and then looked at Rong Jin. Seeing that the former's eyes were obviously dim, she still hummed with a proud voice, while the latter did not look at her entire eye and did not notice it at all.
Her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly. She reached out and pulled Rong Jin's sleeve. After the other party looked over, she glanced at the snack and signaled him to eat two pieces to comfort the Queen Mother. At some point, the tacit understanding between the two of them disappeared. He said in a very straightforward sentence: "If Qingqing can't eat, she can't stop eating. There is no need to make things difficult for herself. The Queen Mother will not blame her."
After a moment of silence, he actually looked at Empress Dowager Dong with a "naive and simple" look and asked, "Is it right, my mother?"
Queen Mother Dong: "..." She is really her eldest son.
Mu Yunqing: "..." It's really her good husband.
Empress Dowager Dong pursed her lips, nodded as if she had held back but she didn't cry. Seeing Mu Yunqing immediately felt a desire to protect her, and said without thinking: "Rong Jin."
"Um?"
"Open your mouth." She picked up the ugliest piece of dessert.
"What..." Rong Jin was about to ask "what" in uncertainty when his wife stuffed her plum blossom cake.
Not to mention, this snack looks ugly, but it tastes pretty good, crispy and delicious, with a fragrance left on the cheeks.
Mu Yunqing looked at him with bright eyes. Yu Guang saw that Empress Dowager Dong was sitting on the top and was looking forward to the same style, so he asked: "How is it? It's delicious? Is it endless aftertaste?"
"It's okay."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunqing resisted the urge to hit someone, but couldn't help but reach out and pinched his arm, lowered his voice and threatened, "Speak well!"
"Qingqing, it hurts." Rong Jin looked aggrieved, but then suddenly changed his tone: "Look, let me tell me, now the only one who can hurt his husband is Qingqing."
“…Is it delicious?”
"It's delicious, delicious, it's okay?" Rong Jin smiled and looked doting.
At this moment, a "puchi" laughter suddenly came from beside him. When Mu Yunqing heard the sound, he saw Empress Dowager Dong covering her lips with her hands, looking overwhelmed. There was a hint of teasing in her smile.
Sure enough, I heard her tease, "Ha, it's so embarrassing!"
Rong Jin glanced casually at the eyes.
The mother and son met with each other, and Empress Dowager Dong smiled even more happily, and said, "What? May you be afraid of your wife and you won't allow me to laugh?"
"My son dare not. My son just thinks that if my son's skills are not as good as this, I will never be able to laugh. I am not as broad-minded as my mother's queen. I should say it, smile it, and I will accept it."
"...I haven't seen you much better than me!" Isn't it just hurting each other? Is she a mother still afraid of her son's failure?
Mu Yunqing was stunned when he looked at him.
Since she entered the palace, she realized that there must be a beautiful scene between Rong Jin and Empress Dowager Dong. But she never thought it would be a competitive scene where mother and son argued!
Seeing that Rong Jin didn't say anything for a moment, Empress Dowager Dong's smile even more and immediately said, "From now on, you won't be allowed to talk to me anymore. I have to talk to my daughter-in-law."
At one moment, Mu Yunqing felt that Empress Dowager Dong was not really going to talk to her. She just wanted to find an excuse to block Rong Jin's mouth and end this hard-earned victory.
Mu Yunqing was a little confused when he was pulled into the back hall by the Empress Dowager Dong.
Logically speaking, the first time they met between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the Empress Dowager Dong wanted to prepare a meeting gift for Mu Yunqing.
As soon as she went to Weiyang Palace, the Queen Mother Citizen prepared some for her, and a lot of them were prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs according to the royal etiquette. However, before leaving, the Queen Mother Citizen gave Mu Yunqing a pair of white jade bracelets, which were rewarded by the late emperor when she was conferred her as a concubine.
Now that we came to Changle Palace, Empress Dowager Dong also gave Mu Yunqing the office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and then gave her a red cloth bag, which was heavy with something, and it looked very thick.
"Thank you, my mother."
"No need." After the words came, Empress Dong was stuck for a moment. She had never been a person who talked a lot. She was used to being so concise, but she was afraid that her daughter-in-law felt that she was indifferent, so she added: "I'll take care of me after I've used it."
"...Yes." Mu Yunqing thought to himself that it was a consumable in it?
Although the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are both excellent people, they are not familiar with each other. In addition, the personality of Empress Dowager Dong is not as gentle and friendly as that of Empress Dowager Cixi, so the two have nothing to say. They stare at each other with big eyes and are really embarrassed, so Empress Dowager Dong intends to let them go back.
Before sending Mu Yunqing back to Rong Jin, Empress Dowager Dong thought that she had finally become a mother-in-law and had to look like a mother-in-law. Thinking about what her mother-in-law said to her, she simply copied it: "If that brat bullies you in the future, you will..."
The original words of the Empress Dowager are: If the emperor bullies you in the future, then let me tell the Ai family that the Ai family will make the decision for you.
But after applying it to herself, Empress Dowager Dong felt that she could not be the leader of Rong Jin. Of course, she could also force herself to say this, but she should not be done with deception, let alone her good daughter-in-law.
So, after she paused, her words became like this: "If that brat bullies you in the future, you will bully yourself. I think he will not dare to provoke you."
In fact, this is not the whole truth. What Queen Mother Dong wants to say even more is: "If that brat bullies me next time, remember to bully me back."
Looking at her overly cute mother-in-law, Mu Yunqing held back her smile and nodded obediently: "Yes."
On the way to Changle Palace, Mu Yunqing kept scolding Rong Jin: "You are not good at talking to your mother like that. She knows what flavor of snacks you like and makes them for you with your own hands. How can you think you are ugly?"
"Also, the queen mother joked that you were just kidding you, and you were sarcastic at her, so rude."
"You are mother and son, but the queen of mother will not hold a grudge against you, but you will inevitably feel disappointed."
"Not this is allowed next time."
Rong Jin listened obediently and said at the end: "Qingqing just talks about me, but she doesn't say that her mother, as a mother, doesn't give in to her son at all."
Mu Yunqing couldn't help laughing when she heard this.
She suddenly thought that if Rong Jin had not experienced those swords and swords when he was young, but had grown up safely and smoothly beside his mother, he might have looked different.
She could even imagine that the scene where the mother and son were quarreling seriously must be very warm.
But then again, it really surprised her that her mother-in-law would have this temperament.
"I remember you told me before that my grandfather's family was a scholarly family, and my grandfather was a famous scholar in the Northern Qi Dynasty and was also a master of the emperor for three generations. Therefore, I thought that a lady like my mother would have a gentle and dignified personality."
Of course, she didn't think that Empress Dowager Dong was not gentle or dignified, but compared to these two points, she felt that the other person would be more cute.
When Mu Yunqing said the four words "gentle and dignified", Rong Jin did not give his own mother a face and laughed out loud. He smiled and said with a smile: "If Qingqing had not misunderstandings about these four words, then she would have misunderstandings about her mother."
"The only child in the grandfather's family is her. She has been spoiled since she was a child. Even if she married someone, even if the person she married was the emperor, even if she later gave birth to a child and became a mother, she did not change her selves."
Rong Jin left Northern Qi since childhood, so most of the memories related to Empress Dowager Dong remained in his childhood.
He remembered that when he was a child, he first learned to play chess. The queen mother liked to play chess with him very much. She could even be said to be happy because she was not good at chess skills and could not beat her father or grandfather. She could only find a balance in him and would ruthlessly laugh at him after she won him and hit his young and fragile heart.
Later, he had excellent chess skills and wanted to find the game, but his mother never played chess with him again. She firmly believed that as long as she didn't start, she would never lose.
Another time, on the Lantern Festival, she was unwilling to attend the palace banquet to watch those boring songs and dances, so she lied that she was sick and stayed in Changle Palace. But in fact, she was secretly planning to go out of the palace to play. Fortunately, he left the table to see her because he was worried about her body, so he caught her. In order to prevent him from leaking the secret, she took him out of the palace with her.
Unfortunately, my father discovered it and was punished to copy the palace rules. The mother pushed everything onto him, saying that he had to shout out to go out for fun. She had no choice but to drag him out with her sick body. As a result, his father, who valued his daughter-in-law and his son, really believed it!
In the end, the copy she should have copied was also his.
There are countless things like Rong Jin was cheated, so now that he has grown up and must "take revenge" back.
While talking, the two left the palace and got on the carriage.
Seeing that Mu Yunqing was holding a red cloth bag in his hand, Rong Jin raised his eyebrows and asked, "What did the Queen Mother give it?"
"Um."
"Opened and read it?"
"Not yet." As he said, Mu Yunqing curiously unbuttoned the cloth bag and said casually: "It's heavy. Could it be the things that happened to you when you were recorded by the mother's mother's mother's mother's notes?"
"impossible."
"How do you know?"
"She is not that hardworking."
"..." What kind of hatred is it?
The last crease was unfolded, and Mu Yunqing looked at the thick stack of silver notes and fell silent again.
She had a lot of calculations, but she didn't think that the gift that the mother prepared for her was such a affordable thing.
She thought that people from families like her grandfather's family must be proud of themselves and do not love these gold and silver things the most, but she did not expect that her mother-in-law was so unique.
Although she would cherish any gifts she gave to her mother-in-law, no one would think that there were too many things like silver notes. The key is that with it, you can buy whatever you want.
Rong Jin glanced at it, lowered his eyes and smiled slightly: "Qingqing keeps it yourself, just treat it as your little treasury."
Miss Mu glanced at him, pretended to be stingy and hugged the stack of silver bills into her arms, and said, "I didn't plan to give them to you either! This is the gift given to me by my mother, and it has nothing to do with you!"
Rong Jin narrowed his eyes and suddenly reached her waist: "Qingqing didn't even seem so happy when she got me. Is it because of her husband that she can't compare to these silver bills?"
"..." Now that people are no longer jealous, they are jealous of eating, are they?
Smiling at him with a flattering smile, Mu Yunqing said obediently: "How can silver notes be compared with you? They are popular because they are useful, but I like you even if you are useless."
After hearing her say it, Rong Jin was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't figure out whether she was praising him or hurting him.
When he thought about it, he was about to argue with her, but suddenly he heard the voice of a little eunuch sounding outside the carriage. Rong Ci was anxious to find him if he had something important to do, so he specially sent someone to chase him out of the palace.
Mu Yunqing shook his hand and helped him get his cloak: "Go."
