Chapter 37: Witty Response

"Oops! It's inevitable for an elderly person to have trembling hands, my good daughter! Don't be surprised, don't be alarmed. It's good to cool down the anger if it's too strong. If it's stagnation in the heart, it's not a sign of longevity. This is to help her relieve her liver qi." If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished.

Wine, did you forget that her surname is Situ?

Her father is a national master!

The tiger father has no dog daughter, so of course she is not a vegetarian!

I saw the old lady's hands really shaking several times and couldn't stop for a while. I don't know whether she was scared or angry.

"Well! Su'er has a high vision. After several years of choosing, he still hasn't found the one he likes. He doesn't marry until he is over twenty years old. I won't give any instructions to avoid being disliked by others. Anyway, when you are old, you can't control much, and you are being harassed everywhere.

If someone dislikes me, it’s okay if my granddaughter-in-law is not sincere in offering her tea..."

"Old woman, you talk too much." The male voice just now came out again.

The old lady, who had a gloomy face, was annoyed and glanced at her son and daughter-in-law, wanting to vent her dissatisfaction. Unexpectedly, the two of them didn't even look at her. They lowered their heads and counted the ants on the ground, with a hint of mockery at the corners of their mouths.

smile.

The old lady endured it again and again, and finally couldn't help but speak again: "I don't want to be a disgusting old woman. I will still give you the gifts you should give. But with all those dowries, you probably don't care about bracelets and hairpins."

Yes, as for me, I don’t have much self-esteem, I live in seclusion and rarely interact with others..."

Her "reclusive life" was strictly controlled by Mrs. Jingpinghou.

She would filter all the invitations sent to the second bedroom first. If she thought they were not too out of line, she would send them to her step-mother-in-law. On the other hand, if they were gossips, troublemakers, or came from the same nostril as the old lady,

Even those from the mother's family will be detained.

The old lady is very good at causing trouble. She will cause trouble every ten and a half months. Sometimes she is seeking power, sometimes she wants to ask for money. She uses her status as a mother-in-law to make money and make people unbearable. Isn't that her purpose?

Build momentum for your grandson and give him a certain status in the government.

However, with the beauty of Ouyang Sufeng in front of him, Ouyang Yaofeng, who was not good at writing or martial arts, was much inferior.

"Hurry up, keep blabbering, your tongue is too long and I'll fix it for you." She kept talking nonsense, as if others were just waiting to die like her.

The old lady choked, but she dared not speak in anger. She stared at the boss and his wife again, feeling extremely angry at their indifference.

"Old lady, just give me some broken bowls and plates. I don't care. But I have never knelt with anyone. I only kowtow in front of my mother's spirit. If you are not afraid of shortening your life, I will kneel for a while longer and treat it as worship.

"Situ Qingqing's knees are a little painful. She didn't expect that kneeling is also a skill. It seems that she will ask her aunts when she returns home.

"Pfft!" Suddenly someone laughed.

Situ Qingqing looked back and saw that everyone was looking at Madam Jingpinghou with serious expressions, while she seemed to be wiping her mouth with a handkerchief and covering her mouth tightly.

Worshiping the spirit? It’s a shame that the new daughter-in-law can explain how she has such a brain. She only worships the spirit after death. It’s really bad luck to say this on the wedding day.

"You... don't want to step on my head just because the emperor has granted you a marriage. Everyone has seen how amazing your dowry is, and you don't need this little money. But I am an elder, and you have to listen to what I say.

If you dare to contradict me just after entering today, I will punish you..."

"Are you done with it? It's not difficult to kill a person, and it's not difficult to make him extinct... I think there should be a lot of eunuchs missing in the palace..."

As Situ Kongkong is a national counselor, it is easy to send someone to serve as an errand. The loss of eunuchs and palace maids is greater than that of civil servants.

Hearing this, the old lady took a cold breath and tightened the handkerchief tightly.

"You don't want me to live here for a year and a half!"

After hearing this, the old lady happily ordered someone to fetch the copper bracelets that had been prepared in advance. Two taels of silver can buy ten of them at a bargain price.

"Here! Here you go, get up."

"Yes, thank you, Taijun." With the help of her husband, Situ Qingqing slowly stood up.

After dealing with the ugly old lady, Situ Qingqing took tea and walked towards her father-in-law and mother-in-law, who were obviously much more amiable, and dropped to her knees.

"Father-in-law, drink tea."

"Hey, drink."

"Mother-in-law drinks tea."

"Haha... You're so cute. The more I look at it, the more I like it..." Eh! There's nobility in those eyebrows and eyes, and there seems to be some kind of protection.

However, Mrs. Jingpinghou's surprise was so subtle that no one noticed it.

The gift she gave to her daughter-in-law was a pair of red gold headbands, inlaid with pearls and various precious stones. When the red cloth covering it was lifted, the golden light shone so brightly that it made people blind. One look at it revealed that it was worth a lot.

Comparing it with the copper bracelet given by the old lady, it was a sharp contrast between the poor and the nouveau riche, which made the old lady's face turn red and blue.

As for the Marquis, he was more practical. He generously gave him a hundred thousand taels of silver. With a wry smile, he looked back at the man behind him who looked dissatisfied. He then gave the golden sword on his waist, which he had used to kill Dong.

The trophies collected by the border troops are very meaningful.

"This is the second aunt."

Sitting under the main seat was a woman about thirty years old. Her hair was meticulously combed and she was smeared with osmanthus oil, which made her shiny. However, her eyes were lifeless at all, giving people a mean and gloomy feeling.

"Second aunt drinks tea."

Little Ji didn't even raise her head, and drank tea without saying a word. After finishing the drink, she put the tea bowl back, and the nanny beside her placed a jade bracelet wrapped in a purse for her. The quality was pretty good, compared to the old lady's copper bracelet.

It's a lot more upscale, and a widowed person has to rely on his brother and sister-in-law to support him, so he doesn't want to cause more trouble.

"You are the eldest sister-in-law, so you don't need to salute. My eldest brother, Mu Feng, is the daughter of Aunt Yun, and my younger sister, Qian'er, is the daughter of Aunt Wan." Ouyang Sufeng introduced them one by one. Ouyang Jing got married last year and followed her husband to the south.

"Hello, sister-in-law, I am Mu Feng."

"Hello, sister-in-law. I'm my sister-in-law. You have to be nice to me, or I'll put on your little shoes... Oh! Second brother, why are you hitting me on the head..." It's normal for a sister-in-law to give her a thumbs up, okay? She acted too hot.

Luo is full of ghosts.

"Look at brother's face..." I'm trying to save you! Don't be ungrateful.

Ouyang Qian, who had an active nature, looked at her eldest brother and was immediately frightened into silence. His face was as cold as a devil, which made her feel cold. She was just joking to tease the new daughter-in-law who had just entered the house.

, is it necessary to be so serious? When the eldest brother has a wife, he loses his sister. It’s so hateful.

Situ Qingqing smiled nonchalantly and said, "Okay, hello, I don't know what you like. I'll open the warehouse later and let you choose. You can take whatever you want. You don't have to be polite to me." Anyway, she was alone.

You can’t use them all, and some things shouldn’t be kept for a long time.

Just take it? The angry old lady raised her eyebrows and thought, why would a woman want so much dowry? Why not give some to her Yao'er, and take it to walk around the palace. He should also find a share.

It’s not good to be at home all day long if you have nothing to do.

The old lady's evil heart came up with the thought of her grandson's daughter-in-law's dowry again, and wanted to take away one or two hundred cents from it. Once she entered the Marquis's mansion, she belonged to the Marquis's mansion. It was not up to the new daughter-in-law to make the decision. As a grandmother, she dared to refuse? What an unfilial elder?

The hat will be put on her immediately, let’s see how she conducts herself.

"Really?" Ouyang Qian asked excitedly.

Situ Qingqing nodded with a smile: "It's a drop in the bucket, you guys try your best, and this one... uh! You go too."

"He is the only son of his second uncle, Yaofeng." Ouyang Sufeng added promptly.

"Oh! He's my cousin. He's taller than me! You can go pick one too, don't be shy, we're all one of our own..." Tsk! Why is the look in her eyes so weird? It seems like she is here to steal him.

The family property is average.

"Don't worry, I only need a set of the four treasures of the study. The inkstone is purple stone inkstone from Huchuan, the ink is Yunyan ink ingot from Sunan, the ink white jade brush from Qionglin, and the hosta paper from Xuanhua. My cousin-in-law won't be stingy, right?

"

Ouyang Yaofeng gave her a provocative cold look. He thought it would embarrass her. After all, the things he mentioned were quite difficult to find. Each of them was a treasure, and even if you had money, you might not be able to buy it.

"Ah! What a coincidence. I just prepared a set of Douye and gave it to the cousin of the second roommate. I hope he can use these four treasures of the study to be named on the gold list next year and become the top scholar in high school. After all, he doesn't have a share in the Jingping Marquis Mansion.

You have to find a way out for yourself early."

As soon as he finished speaking, Situ Qingqing looked as shy and timid as a little daughter-in-law, covering her mouth and giggling.

"You really do?!" Ouyang Yaofeng looked unbelieving.

When Douye took out the purple stone inkstone, Yunyan ink ingot, ink white jade brush and jade hairpin paper, the pride on Ouyang Yaofeng's face instantly faded.

"There's me, there's me! You can't favor one over the other." The voice that just kept interrupting sounded again, a little unhappy.

Situ Qingqing glared angrily: "Dad, you are my mother's family, what kind of ceremony do you want? At most, you can just watch the ceremony. Once the ceremony is completed, you can go."
