Chapter 115: Snake grass to startle the snake

Seeing the kind and friendly expressions on the faces of Old Lady Ren and Mrs. Ren, Ren Yaoqi looked down slightly.
This is the second time in two lifetimes that her grandfather and grandmother looked at her with this kind of attention. When the Ren family wanted to send her to Jianjun Lu, they had a long conversation with her in the previous life.
What she said was nothing more than asking her to put her family's interests first, serve the high-ranking eunuch, and try every means to profit for the Ren family.
At that time, her first reaction was nausea and nausea. She didn't understand how anyone could be so shameless.
After resurrecting his life, Ren Yaoqi no longer feels cynical when facing such a face again. She was extremely calm.
It is Ren Jia's consistent style of drilling camp. Ren Jia hired her mother to marry her father, but it was just because he wanted to have a strange product.
Because before the concubine Wan Guifei, the mother of the king, committed suicide, the power of the concubine Wan Guifei should not be underestimated. When King Xian came to Yanbei for the first time, the current emperor and the Yan family were not stable, and King Xian might not have the chance to make a comeback.
It’s just that what Ren Jia didn’t expect was Wan Guifei’s decisiveness and decisiveness. She didn’t expect that she would find ways to send King Xian to Yanbei. In fact, she really only wanted him to live in peace, rather than retreat. To make fun of it.
Later, with the support of the Yan family, the current emperor's state became more stable. The situation of King Xian became more precarious, and the chess piece of Li, who was married to the Ren family, became more and more hot.
Ren Yaoqi sometimes couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, the Queen Mother Yan in the middle of Beijing was beyond the reach of the King's family in Yanbei. Otherwise, as long as there is a bit of trouble in King Xian, Li will definitely become a victim of the Ren family.
The reason why Li survived after becoming an abandoned son must be due to the instinctive fear of the Ren family with the surname "Li".
If the court is embarrassed to offer the king, their killing of Li can naturally be regarded as a show of merit to the court, but the court has not moved the knife to the king's head for the time being, and they may cause trouble if they do it. Therefore, even though Li had frustrated his life in the Ren family over the years, he did not lose his life.
Ren Yaoqi looked down slightly, her voice still respectful and obedient: "The princess said that the second son of Xiao is here to do business, and she will return to Yunyang City tomorrow, and she will go back with him. Today the princess has other places to go. Go, don't have to be free, the second son of Xiao...the granddaughter doesn't even know how to invite."
When the old lady heard this, her brows were subconsciously frowned, and her tone also brought some reproaches: "Why don't you keep the princess today? If you can stay at our house for one night, then everything will be easy to do. It's rare for the princess to show you closeness, and wouldn't you take the opportunity?"
Regarding this kind of inexplicable accusation, Ren Yaoqi only lowered his head even more, feeling a little uneasy: "The princess said that he didn't want to enter the mansion, and his granddaughter can't force her to come."
What else does the old lady want to say, but the old lady smiled to make a round for Ren Yaoqi: "Well, this time the princess and Xiao Xiaozi are not invited, but it does not mean that there will be no chance next time. I see that the five girls are smart. Yes, otherwise, she won't be the princess's eye, so don't be too harsh on her."
Mrs. Ren is not good to say anything.
Grandpa Ren said kindly: "Five girl, you have to remember that next time if there is a chance to invite King Yanbei in, then you must find a way to invite in. You must know that if our Ren family can cooperate with The Yanbei Palace has had contacts, and that is a good opportunity for our Ren family to meet and untrace. And only if the Ren family is good, you who live in the Ren family can be good for your children and grandchildren."
Ren Yaoqi responded with a low "yes"
The old lady Ren was very satisfied with Ren Yaoqi's obedience, and then explained to the old lady Ren: "I see Wuyao is an excellent one, but she is less courageous. You will spend more time on her in the future and cultivate it. This My child, I look forward to a good future!"
Mrs. Ren glanced at Mrs. Ren, wondering whether Mrs. Ren was to blame for her being too negligent with this granddaughter, which allowed her to develop such a cowardly temper?
"Yes, the concubine knows it." The old lady Ren was still very respectful in front of the old lady.
"You are also tired, go back and rest first." Old lady Ren confessed to Ren Yaoqi kindly.
Ren Yaoqi got up and bowed in a respectful manner. He was about to retreat. The old lady Ren said again: "If the princess goes back, you also remember to write greetings to her every other day. Don’t let the princess send her a greeting. you forgot."
"Yes, grandfather." Ren Yaoqi always looked like a well-behaved and obedient.
There were no other explanations between the old lady Ren and Mrs. Ren, Ren Yaoqi only then gently retreated.
Only after opening the curtain and coming out, Ren Yaoqi subconsciously took a deep breath, held his breath for a moment, and then slowly exhaled it.
There is no greenery in the courtyard of Ronghua Yard, and there is no breath of spring and summer, which makes people feel depressed when standing in the courtyard. Although she didn't like this place very much, her footsteps were slow and steady.
After Ren Yaoqi came out, Mrs. Ren asked Mrs. Ren: "Do you think the princess came to our Ren's house this time really just to find the five girls?"
The old lady Ren had deliberately asked Li and the few people who went to serve at the Bailong Temple that day after Ren Yaoqi left. They all said that the princess only saw Ren Yaoqi befriend her. , Took her to drink tea.
However, no matter how you fall in love, you won't get close after only seeing one face and drinking tea once.
The old lady Ren was still a little skeptical about the princess's visit to Ren Yaoqi.
Grandpa Ren was originally thoughtful. Hearing the words of Mrs. Ren, he said: "Although it is a bit weird, there is nothing wrong with it for the time being. Anyway, it is a good thing for people from the Yanbei Palace to get close to our Ren family. Many people have already known about the Lord’s visit to our house, and many have come to inquire."
The princess of Yanbei Palace came to Baihe Town and didn't go anywhere. First of all, they came to Renfu. This is something that makes the Ren family very face.
"Wu Yatou, don't you want to despise as before as before. Being favored by the nobles shows that she is a blessing, and she may still be able to decide what will happen in the future." The old lady Ren told the old lady again.
The old lady Ren was somewhat disapproving: "What's the situation? Even if the fifth girl can get the princess's favor, can we still let her marry into the Yanbei Palace?"
The old lady Ren just said casually, but she didn't want to feel the beard, but she was silent.
Mrs. Ren has been married to her for many years. Seeing him like this, he knows that Mrs. Ren must have something in his heart. She couldn't help but probed: "Master, do you really have this idea? But the marriage of the Yanbei Palace is so easy to get married. ?"
Grandpa Ren touched his beard, and said in deep thought: "It was really difficult to tie, but it wasn't entirely impossible."
"Oh?" The old lady Ren also got some interest and straightened up to listen.
Grandpa Ren said: "You should know the second son Xiao, right?"
Old lady Ren nodded: "Of course I know Xiao Jingxi, the second son of the Xiao family."
"The second son of Xiao has been in poor health since he was a child, and he almost disappeared a few years ago. Although he went to a far door this time, I heard that his condition has improved a lot after coming back. However, this disease came from his mother's womb. Can it really be cured there? Medicine can be controlled for a while, but it can't be controlled for a lifetime, and one day the body will collapse." Old man Ren said confidently.
Mrs. Ren pondered the words of Mrs. Ren in her heart. She is worthy of being a husband and wife for many years. Suddenly Fuzhi looked at Mrs. Ren in surprise: "You mean..."
The old man said in a calm tone: "We in Yanbei have had the custom of'Chongxi' since ancient times. Any man who is dyingly ill but has yet to be married will choose a woman with a lower family background to carry in when the lamp is almost exhausted. Fu Chongxi. Although the etiquette will be simpler, as long as the status is not too low, it is generally still the official status of the Ming media."
The old lady Ren had only guessed one thing, but what else did she not understand when the next old lady said so well?
"You mean that when the Yanbei Prince's Mansion is about to be happy for the second son of Xiao, our Ren family..."
Old lady Ren touched his beard and said nothing.
The old lady Ren frowned and thought about it: "If this is the case, then who do you think is suitable? The second son of Xiao doesn't know how long it will last, but the girls of the Ren family are talking about others."
The old man Ren said calmly: "The marriage of Sanyatou and Siyatou can be settled first. The marriage of the Han family needs to wait and see, but the Qiu family's marriage can be settled."
Mrs. Ren hesitated: "I originally thought that Hua'er could give it to the Han family, and Yin'er said it would be for Yun'er. But now the Han family's marriage is not successful, we can't go past the sister of Hua'er and talk about Yin'er's marriage first. Or marry Huaer to the Qiu family?"
Elder Ren glanced at Mrs. Ren: "I know that you have been in love with Huaer, and you are more partial to her than other granddaughters. However, this important marriage cannot be based on preferences. The most important thing is to see. Who is more suitable."
The old lady Ren was a little scornful when she heard the words, and defended: "Don't I also consider their rankings?"
Mr. Ren didn't care about Mrs. Ren's defense, and said straightforwardly: "I think it's better to hear the sound. Although Qiu Yun ranked third in his generation, he is the eldest son of Qiu's family. The position of the head of the Qiu family must fall on him. His wife must have a calm temper and be able to be a big responsibility. Hua'er is not bad, but this kind of energy training is absolutely inferior. And Yin'er is a long room. My daughter, we will also be the head of the long house in the Ren family. We will marry Yin'er to the Qiu family, and the relationship between the Ren family and the Qiu family will be closer."
The old lady Ren listened to what Elder Ren said and knew that he had already made a decision, so she couldn't say anything. Ren Yaoyin was also brought up by her. Even if she was more partial to Ren Yaohua, her heart would not be too ridiculous.
"Then the Yanbei Palace..." Mrs. Ren has already decided on the matter, and Mrs. Ren will no longer bother you on this matter.
Mrs. Ren said: "Isn't the five girl making friends with the princess? Maybe in the future there will be a chance to show up in front of the people of Yanbei Palace."
In addition to Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoyin, the girls waiting to be married in Xifu are Ren Yaoqi, Ren Yaoyu, and Ren Yaoying.
The old lady Ren Yaoyin had decided to give it to the Qiu family. Ren Yaohua didn't say that the old lady Ren was reluctant to bear it, but she was a few years older in her age, afraid that she could not wait. Ren Yaoying came from the concubine, and she was afraid that the Yanbei Royal Mansion would look down upon her when her status was low. This is not a consideration. Ren Yaoyu is the granddaughter of the Lin family. The rest is only Ren Yaoqi the most suitable.
Old lady Ren thought for a while, and understood. She had never taken care of the granddaughter of Ren Yaoqi, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with the decision of the old man to give her to the Yanbei Wangfu Chongxi. Marriage matters are naturally to follow the arrangements of the elders.
"But even if it is Chongxi, the Yanbei Palace is also the Yanbei Palace, and there are a lot of people who rush to give them away. If you can't get on the stage, Yanbei Palace will not look up. So you need to pay attention to the five girls No matter how you don't like her, she will be our Ren family's grandmother when she goes out in the future."
This is the third time that Mr. Ren reminds Mrs. Ren not to underestimate Ren Yaoqi's words. Mrs. Ren knows that this is Mrs. Ren who is really concerned about this matter, and can't help but say: "Don't worry, where am I like I don't know the severity? Five girls, I will teach them well in the future."
Grandpa Ren was only satisfied.
On the second day, Ren Yaoqi clearly noticed the change in Mrs. Ren's attitude towards him.
Originally, only the two granddaughters Ren Yaoyin and Ren Yaohua were lucky enough to have breakfast for the old lady every day. From this morning onwards, the old lady Ren also left Ren Yaoqi.
After eating, the old lady Ren left three granddaughters by her side to talk to her, and her attitude towards Ren Yaoqi became more kind than ever.
Such an obvious change was felt not only by Ren Yaoqi, but also by the Ren family. The Ren family couldn't help but guess why the old lady Ren's attitude changed 180 degrees.
Although Ren Yaoqi guessed that it had something to do with Xiao Jinglin's visit to her door, she hadn't guessed that Grandpa Ren wanted to marry her to Xiao Jingxi Chongxi.
They stayed with Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoyin until they were about to have lunch before returning to Ziweiyuan.
Although Ren Yaohua had some doubts about Ren Yaoqi's sudden favor, she didn't say anything. However, Li was extremely happy to see that both daughters had won the favor of the elders in the family. The two sisters, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua, were specifically called over and explained. He explained that Ren Yaoqi should listen to his grandmother's words and should not be rebellious. He also explained that Ren Yaohua should take good care of her younger sister and remind her not to annoy the old lady.
In front of Li's face, Ren Yaoqi obediently agreed, and Ren Yaohua nodded and agreed. Li looked at his two daughters, very pleased.
In the afternoon, Ren Yaoqi went to visit Ren Shijia again, and met his wife Wen to say goodbye to Ren Shijia.
It turns out that Sister-in-law Wen will rush to Yunyang City tomorrow morning. Someone from the Lin family will go to Jiangning tomorrow. Sister-in-law Wen will be with the Lin family. This is arranged by Lin Kun for her.
In the presence of Ren Shijia, sister-in-law Wen's drama is still very well done. First, he expressed his dissatisfaction to Ren Shijia, a regular customer. After Ren Shijia gave her some rewards, he was very grateful.
Ren Yaoqi secretly observed from the sidelines, she always felt a little unwilling in Sister Wen's eyes.
She didn't want to return to Jiangning. Ren Yaoqi affirmed this idea once.
Ren Yaoqi was still a little curious about the connection between Lin Kun and Aunt Fang, she wanted to know what medicine the two men sold in the gourd.
But if Sister Wen were to return to Jiangning like this, the line would probably be broken.
After coming out of Ren Shijia's yard, Ren Yaoqi thought about it all the way, still planning to let Zhu Ruomei, who happened to be still in Baihe Town, help.
So she called Apple to her side as soon as she went back to Ziweiyuan, and told her to go out to the Yuan family, and let the Yuan family arrange Apple to see Zhu Ruomei.
After coming back from the outside yesterday, the old lady Ren specifically called Apple over to ask a question, because the two times Ren Yaoqi saw Xiao Jinglin only left Apple to wait on her side.
Ren Yaoqi thought about it, and let Apple go to see the old lady. She was a little worried, but she didn't want Apple's performance to satisfy Ren Yaoqi.
No matter how the old lady Gui next to Mrs. Ren used all kinds of tricks and inquired around, even in front of Mrs. Ren’s apple, he always insisted that Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin were just drinking tea and talking, and said something. It's just an unimportant fun event. No mention of Xiao Jingxi was mentioned.
She was acting like an honest person again, and the old lady Ren asked herself a few words about what she couldn't ask, before sending her out.
As expected, the girl Apple didn't make Ren Yaoqi mistaken, she was a big deal. Although she may not be very clever, there is no doubt about her loyalty.
Therefore, today Ren Yaoqi also handed over the matter of contacting Zhu Ruomei to Apple.
It's been nearly two hours since Apple left. After returning, he came straight to see Ren Yaoqi.
"What did he say?" Ren Yaoqi was sitting on the kang, embroidering stitch after stitch. Although his skill was mediocre, he couldn't get it. Moreover, she painted all the flowers by herself, which is much more chic and interesting than those bought from outside.
Apple came forward and reported in a low voice: "The slave and maid gave him your words verbatim. He said that there is no problem, and this matter will be done to you. I can explain it to you tomorrow."
Ren Yaoqi nodded when he heard the words, but sighed in his heart.
She didn't have much contact with Zhu Ruomei, and helping him was just a matter of effort. However, Zhu Ruomei is a man who really values ​​love and justice.
She explained that the two things Zhu Ruomei had done sounded a bit confusing and weird. If you change to an ordinary person, you will be suspicious if you hear her one and a half-year-old children order such things. But Zhu Ruomei accepted it both times, and she did not perfunctory things just because she was young.
Ren Yaoqi asked Apple to go to rest after a few questions, and waited for Zhu Ruomei's response the next day.
In the afternoon of the next day, Sister Yuan received news. Ren Yaoqi knew that the matter she had confessed to Zhu Ruomei had taken hold.
However, since the last time Li told Ren Yaoqi not to go out to meet people, Ren Yaoqi has not personally seen anyone in the outer courtyard. Although she actually wanted to personally ask about Zhu Ruomei, she didn't want Li to worry about her because of this.
So in the end, Ren Yaoqi gave a few words to Apple and sent her to see Sister Yuan in the outer courtyard.
Sister-in-law Yuan secretly took Apple to see Zhu Ruomei.
It took more than half an hour before Apple came back to Ziweiyuan.
Ren Yaoqi sent all the maids and women out: "Have you asked all those who told you before?"
Apple nodded, and started reporting before Ren Yaoqi asked: "He said he waited outside the city with his face masked according to what you confessed to Miss Wen. When Sister Wen's donkey cart went to a remote place outside the city, he used a slingshot. She fainted and climbed onto the carriage. Sister-in-law Wen thought he was a robber who wanted to rob the money, so she took out the fifty taels of silver in her hand and even the golden hairpin on her head, pretending to be She was dismissive of those money and only wanted to kill. After a while, Sister-in-law Wen suddenly seemed to understand something and began to curse."
Ren Yaoqi asked with interest: "Who is she scolding? What did she scold?"
This is her purpose for letting Zhu Ruomei deliberately intercept and kill Sister Wen, wanting to make her think that someone is secretly trying to kill her.
Although Ren Yaoqi was still unclear about the relationship between Sister Wen, Lin Kun and Aunt Fang, since Sister Yuan was a little unwilling to leave, it must be a contradiction with others, or coercion by someone.
Although Ren Yaoqi's doing this is a bit risky, it's also a good way to get rid of the trouble in the absence of news.
"Sister Wen's first sentence is to ask if Lin Liuye sent him to kill her!" Apple replied, touching the fine sweat on his forehead because he had rushed back too quickly.
