www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!
Nangong Yue deliberately used this incident to show off her ability in front of Lin. She didn’t want to be treated like a child by her mother all the time. She hoped that her mother could believe in herself more... Then if something big happened in the future, her mother would My dear, I don’t deliberately hide it from myself because of my young age.
Ms. Lin was silent. She knew her daughter was right. But when I think about my daughter being only nine years old, she has to be forced to grow up, be sensible, be strong... all because of this useless mother like her. If she wasn't useless, why would her daughter be like this! Why so!
Mrs. Lin closed her eyes, and there was a rare firmness in her usually gentle eyes. Being a mother means being strong, and she has to work harder for her children!
The mother and daughter talked for a while, and then Lin left.
Que'er had been waiting outside Nangong Yue's room for a long time. When he saw Lin leaving, he went into the house and reported: "Third Miss, Miss Su Biao met the Fourth Master by chance in the back garden this afternoon... Su Biao The girl's maid Liu Rong was guarding the entrance to the garden, so the slaves did not dare to get too close."
Hearing this, Nangong Yue couldn't help but sneer. She knew that Su Qingping was not a worry-free woman. Her fourth uncle, Nangong Cheng, was an adult and had already moved out of the inner house. It was definitely not easy for Su Qingping to "encounter" her fourth uncle by chance, and it took some effort to do so.
Nangong Yue rewarded Que'er with a pearl flower and ordered: "Que'er, you did a good job. Keep staring at Miss Su Biao. If she does anything unusual, come back and tell me." After thanking him respectfully, he said "yes" and left.
Nangong Yue was left alone in the room again. She sat quietly on the kang, thinking of her fourth uncle and her fourth uncle's roommate, Qin'er. Although she didn't know her fourth uncle well in this life, she remembered that he was a passionate person in his previous life. As long as the girls in his yard were somewhat pretty, he would get close to them. After they got married, they became Merry Seed only pities her fourth aunt...
Nangong Yue thought secretly, and a certain possibility emerged in her mind: Could it be that in her previous life, the first person Su Qingping targeted was not her father, but her fourth uncle Nangong Cheng?
Based on the personalities of these two people and their current development trends, it seems very possible.
Thinking of this, Nangong Yue suddenly realized that she had missed so many things in her previous life because she had been in bed for several months.
Three days passed by in the blink of an eye. Today is Su's birthday. Extra rewards were given to the servants in the mansion early in the morning. Therefore, the entire Nangong Mansion was full of joy and thanked the old lady for her kindness. The boudoir school also specially gave three days of leave so that the girls could take some time off from their busy schedule.
Early in the morning, people from the first, second, third and fourth bedrooms, as well as Su Qingping, all went to the main hall to pay birthdays to Mrs. Su. Even Mrs. Huang, who was fined and sentenced to confinement, was released today, but she Her voice was still very hoarse. I heard that she spent the whole night reciting the female vows in the corridor, and by the next day her voice was so hoarse that she could hardly speak.
As soon as Mrs. Huang saw Nangong Yue and Mrs. Lin, her eyes burst out with strong resentment, but she also knew that today was Su's birthday. If she made a fuss, it would be the end of the world, and she could only appear docile. He lowered his eyes and stared at his toes.
Starting from the eldest room, the children and grandchildren paid their respects to the Su family one by one:
"I wish my mother (grandmother) to be as blessed as the flowing water of the East China Sea, and to live as long as the evergreen pines in the Southern Mountains."
Everyone kowtowed and presented various birthday gifts carefully prepared by themselves: longevity screens painted by the Eight Immortals, embroidered pictures of a hundred years of longevity, embroidery on the forehead with green embroidery, agarwood sticks... Even Nangong Xin gave them to him. A hand-drawn picture of a birthday boy. When it was Nangong Yue's turn, she gave him a birthday gift that was different from others - knee pads.
"This is..." Su Shi was slightly moved, and looked at Nangong Yue a little differently.
"Grandma, these are the knee pads that my granddaughter sewed specially for you. My granddaughter specially put medicinal herbs to treat rheumatism in it, hoping it will be helpful to grandma." Nangong Yue said respectfully and considerately, with a filial piety. The appearance of a granddaughter. The pair of knee pads were said to be sewn by her own hands, but in fact she was just talking. An Niang helped with the cutting, and Yimei helped with the sewing and embroidery. Only the herbs in them were indeed mixed by her own hands, and she would indeed treat Su's family well. Rheumatism has some benefits.
"Sister Yue is really thoughtful!" Mrs. Su couldn't help but be overjoyed and praised without hesitation, which also attracted some looks of envy, jealousy, disdain or shock to Nangong Yue.
Then the third and fourth bedrooms also paid birthday wishes to Su and gave birthday gifts, and finally it was Su Qingping's turn. Su Qingping had obviously dressed up carefully. She had brought out her best clothes and jewelry. Since there were not many jewelry, she simply chose the ones that suited her best. A golden butterfly-loving flower-preserving flower swayed on her head. On the temples, the beads sway slightly when walking, looking both elegant and pretty.
But her face looked unnatural, and the smile at the corner of her mouth seemed to be forced out. But she immediately adjusted her mood, and when she raised her eyes again, she was smiling freely.
"Qingping wishes my eldest aunt long years of pine life and three thousand years of life with peaches in her hands." Su Qingping respectfully saluted Su, and her maid Liurong helped her present a birthday gift, "Qingping saw it a few days ago When my eldest aunt was suffering from rheumatism, I happened to go to the same place with Sister Yue and prepared a pair of knee pads for my eldest aunt. Although she is not as thoughtful as Sister Yue, my eldest aunt must not dislike Qing Ping." From the outside, the knee pads she made are much more beautiful and delicate than Nangong Yue's pair. The dark green silk fabric is embroidered with vivid peach patterns, has a sky blue edge, and is made of warm rabbit fur on the inside.
It’s just that Nangong Yue presented the gift in front and specially added herbs to the knee pads, which made her look more considerate and outstanding.
So this time, Mrs. Su was not moved. She just ordered Grandma Wang to accept the birthday gift and said with a smile: "Qing Ping, you are also interested."
Su Qingping twisted her handkerchief and stepped aside reluctantly.
After a while, the mother-in-law hurriedly came to report that the Su family's eldest daughter Nangong Yun had arrived at the gate with her husband Bai Yuxuan and daughter Bai Muxiao; before half the incense stick had passed, the Su family's concubine Nangong Shuang also brought her husband and A son and a daughter also arrived at Rong'an Hall... Looking at the room full of children and grandchildren, even Su, who was usually serious about words, couldn't help but smile comfortingly and narrowed his eyes.
After the men in each room and the two uncles paid their birthdays, they left the inner courtyard and went to the banquet in the outer courtyard together. Only Nangong Xin returned to Qianyun Yuan - over the years, Nangong Xin, the capital of the Lin family, has been very protective. , rarely letting him appear in front of outsiders, for fear that he would be hurt by gossip, and Mrs. Su was even more eager for this mentally retarded grandson not to come out to see others.
The female family members stayed in the main hall, you talked to me, I talked to you, each talking about homely things, it was very lively.
Soon after, a mother-in-law came to report that a certain family had sent congratulatory gifts... A moment later, two other families also sent congratulatory gifts.
