Yan Cigui

Chapter 44 Reciprocity

 Outside the West Palace Gate.

Little Duan and Lin Yunyan got into the car one after another.

Mama Ma also sat up and said softly: "Mrs. Xu Guogong just left. She stumbled a bit when she got into the car and almost fell."

When Xiao Duan heard this, he looked worried.

Lin Yunyan saw this in her eyes and asked, "Is grandma afraid that what she said before has gone too far and she won't be able to bear it?"

Little Duanshi said: "It's hard to hear the words, but if she falls into something bad, wouldn't it be our fault?"

"Don't worry, she's not that shameless." Grandma finally managed to hold back a few harsh words. Lin Yunyan would never give her a chance to waver. "Think about yourself, which son is so naked?" You and your coward are being watched on the street, so why don't you just pass by?

 When you open your eyes the next day, even if the world is spinning, you will drag your sick body to your in-laws' house to sincerely apologize.

 But what about her?

She can go to the door of our house early in the morning, under the pretext of apologizing, but in fact she is a general.

Knowing that you were not here, she still dared to stop me and talk about what I had and what I didn’t.

She is much more powerful than you, how can she be unstable just because of your harsh words? "

Little Duan's face turned red and white for a while, and he didn't know whether to say it was reasonable or not.

After struggling for a while, she glared at Lin Yunyan: "Don't talk nonsense, how could I have such an embarrassing son!"

Lin Yunyan’s eyes curled up with joy: “That’s true.”

After laughing for a while, she teased Xiao Duan a few more words: "They were reprimanded by the emperor and looked at the empress dowager coldly. Even if they really fell, they didn't dare to scream. This is not a shameless thing, it's You don’t have the guts of a leopard at all. Just rest assured that you won’t be able to trick us.”

With such a conclusive statement, how could Mr. Duan be uneasy?

Seeing that her grandmother had listened, Lin Yunyan said something else: "My aunt and the others should be home too. Let's go back to pack up and send the things away."

 On the long street, the neighbors finally saw the gate of Chengyi's Mansion open.

 Lin Yunjing's wedding order was carefully kept by Mrs. Huang. She had already taken it. Mrs. Chen opened the warehouse and brought several maids and maids with her. Mrs. Huang thought the same thing and they looked for the same thing.

Seeing Mrs. Duan come back, Mrs. Huang handed the list to her mother-in-law: "I checked it with my siblings. They are all here. You can take a look too."

 Little Duan took it and clarified it very seriously.

Seeing that it was accurate, she felt relieved: "Yun Jing's Geng Tie has been brought back. We will return all the betrothal gifts and select a few stable ones to carry them carefully. Don't bump them."

 Chen responded naturally.

Lin Yunyan held Chen's arm and muttered in her ears.

After hearing this, Ms. Chen looked embarrassed and said, "What you said is very reasonable. It's just my aunt who has never done such a thing."

“There is a first time for everything.” Lin Yunyan softly described Xiao Duan’s results today in detail.

 Chen was stunned.

 What did she hear? Could the person Yun Yan was talking about talking with a dull face really be her mother-in-law, Xiao Duan?

 Why doesn’t she believe it so much?

"How can I make up a story to trick you?" Lin Yunyan encouraged her, "Grandma can look down on her, so are you trying to hold her back?"

Ms. Chen looked at Xiao Duan's back and swallowed hard: "I work hard, I don't have stage fright."

 The door of the uncle's house was opened again.

Soon, he was sent out from Uncle Chengyi's mansion with a gift, and he walked across the street in the red sunset sky to go to Duke Xu's mansion.

Mrs. Chen sat in a sedan chair and passed with Su Ke's Geng Tie in her hand.

The people on the street were quite surprised by the sudden appearance of the team. After a closer look, they could see the purpose of this trip.

 “So soon? It seems like we just reached an agreement, right?”

“It’s a pile of mud, and people can’t wait to throw it out.”

 “Yeah, who wants a man in a skirt?”

You said something, and I said something, as if I was thinking of Su Ke's ugly appearance that night, and it was another joke.

There were some who didn’t mind the excitement and even followed him all the way outside the Duke’s Mansion. As a result, they really fell in love with the new opera.

The steward came out to greet the guests, but Mrs. Chen did not go in.

"Please come out, the Duke and his wife, I will say it here today," she pursed her lips and said, "reciprocity." Steward:…

 What the hell?

 Reciprocity?

 Wait a minute, could it be that everyone in the Duke’s residence failed to enter Chengyi’s residence that day, so they talked to the princess at the gate?

Does this nonsense require "correspondence"?

After Chen finished speaking, he was a little stunned.

It seems that the wording is not quite right, but, I have already said it, can I still swallow it back?

She tried her best to keep her face straight, pretending that nothing happened, and didn't move even a step.

Seeing this, the steward had no choice but to go in and report the matter.

In the flower hall, Mrs. Xu Guogong was waiting with her son and daughter-in-law. When she heard the words "reciprocity of courtesy", she was so angry that she banged her cane on the ground.

 “Just give me some color and you’ll open a dyeing workshop!”

“With the support of the Empress Dowager, you dare to slap us in the face?”

“This kind of family can go as far as they can, but our government cannot afford it!”

“Hurry up and get Ke’er’s Geng Tie back!”

Mrs. Xu Guogong was full of grievances. When she saw Xu Guogong walking out angrily, she quickly followed her.

 Walking all the way out, my anger has not dissipated, but I have regained my composure.

 There can be no disputes or conflicts, otherwise, tomorrow I will be scolded by the censor again...

After leaving the gate and walking down the stage, looking at the boxes and cages lined up in a row, Xu Guogong thought he had a calm tone and said: "Sending Dingli back is going to be such a big battle?"

Mrs. Chen stood next to the stone lion, with her fingertips on the lion's feet, borrowed a little bit of the lion's gall, and took a deep breath: "The divorce will be witnessed by the Queen Mother, but it is not appropriate to send so many things to the palace for inventory. , let’s find out here.”

 After saying this, she did not look at Mr. Xu Guogong and his wife. She only opened the wedding booklet and concentrated on it for a moment.

Yun Yan said that as long as she keeps her mind focused, she can be invincible.

  She cleared her throat and started reading from the beginning.

The accompanying nun opened the box, saying the same thing and displaying the same thing.

The eyes of the people watching the excitement are getting wider and wider: There are so many good things, it’s really an eye-opener today.

The faces of Mr. and Mrs. Xu Guogong grew longer and longer: Why are there so many? Why haven't you finished reading yet?

Amid bursts of exclamation, Mrs. Chen finally finished reading: "The gift list and the prince's Gengjie will be returned together. If you have any questions, please count them again now."

After the words fell, someone beside him said: "Have any questions? What else can a decent family like Uncle Chengyi lack and take advantage of it?"

 “Hey! The uncle’s house is upright, so he needs so many people to bear witness!”

Mrs. Xu Guogong had no intention of taking stock of her thoughts. After hearing these two sentences, she became even more embarrassed.

Xu Guogong also heard it, and he wanted to see who the **** dared to arrange it like this, but he couldn't tell who it was.

**** thing!

 The tiger fell down and was bullied by the dog!

How can ordinary people with flat heads have the courage to discuss this in person? Most likely, they received money from Uncle Chengyi’s house!

 Be careful if you have a life to gain but not a life to spend!

After cursing in his heart, he called for someone to take all the boxes and cages into the house. Xu Guogong and his wife turned around and left.

 The steward closed the door and Mrs. Chen got into the sedan chair.

 Rubbing her legs that were numb from standing, she gradually calmed down her rapid heartbeat.

 It should be doing pretty well, right?

 Have you brought out the essence of Yun Yan’s advice?

Monthly tickets have been doubled, please give me monthly tickets~~~

Yesterday we talked about Er Yang. Er Yang must have passed the Yang before so it can be called "Er". The last wave was in December and no one in the whole family was missed. This time it is expected to be the same. I just hope that I can feel better and not delay things too much.

　　　Thanks to book friends Tiantian Smile TT and Xu Bicheng’s official girlfriend for the reward.
