Chapter 393 Mother-Daughter Battle 【Pink 320+】
Nianfu is not a person who likes to show off. He had never wanted to choose valuable gifts for the two princesses in front of Kang Jierong. You should not show off your wealth, even in front of relatives. Although you are not interested in stimulating others, it is hard to guarantee that others will have any thoughts after seeing it.
But Kang Jierong seemed to be unable to understand all kinds of hints and refused to leave. Hui Niang was always a careless person, so she asked her to help her see each other.
Kang Jierong was a little red when she saw Nianfu and her daughter picking up the precious jewelry like toys. Later, she saw Deqing sending such precious shark silk. Then, she saw Nianfu ordering people to take out a box of shark pearls, selecting a symmetrical head and a shiny color to give people a gift. She was really itchy and couldn't help but say, "Although the princess doesn't have a close brother or sister, she is blessed with her cousin's love for her so much. How can I be blessed? If I hadn't been here to sit today, even shark silk and shark pearls are so good, I wouldn't even have the chance to look at such a good thing as Qingzhu."
When I heard her begging with sourness and jealousy, I only thought it was in front of me. I was too lazy to deal with the haha and just ignored it.
It’s not that she is stingy, she can’t even give her a few beads, but she has to pay attention to being in love with her. Deqing is willing to pay such a heavy capital to make friends with her, so of course she has to repay her. But Kang Jierong didn’t give her a gift or a deep friendship with her, so why should she take advantage of her?
But Hui Niang felt that Kang Jierong's words were particularly pitiful, and she immediately said, "If you like it, just ask your cousin to give you a few. You don't have to see your relatives."
Kang Jierong was overjoyed and hurriedly got up to thank her.
Nianfu glanced at the prodigal mother in disappointment and said kindly, "The Shangqing pearls were originally tributes. When you see them, I only have them. If you give them to Deqing, I would be a little embarrassed to give them to you. I would like to ask someone to tell you that I will give you the rest. Why not do this? I still have a box of pearls next to me, but there are quite a lot of them. I will pick some good ones for you to send them. Whatever you do, just wear them and play with them."
Kang Jierong's smile froze, thinking that since it was a tribute, how could the rest be bad? But when Nianfu said this, she had to bow her head and thank her.
When I turned around, I received a small box of pearls sent by Nianfu. When I opened it, Kang Jierong became even more angry.
She had just seen the Shangqing Pearl. They were all the same as small eggs, dazzling and dazzling. But this box of pearls is at most the size of a little finger. Not to mention the size of a small finger, it is also much less brilliant. How could she be willing to do this?
The maid saw Kang Jierong's face was not good and advised. "These pearls are already good. Didn't the girl fall in love with a pearl necklace last time? Isn't the lady willing to buy it? The one in this box is much better than the one I've seen in that time. Look at the quantity, it's just enough to string one. Now the weather is getting warmer and it's time to wear it."
Kang Jierong was so angry that she could not hear such kindness. She said angrily, "Those with such shallow eyelids deserve to be the life of a slave!"
The maid scolded her with shame and embarrassment. She could only hide out with great grievance. She originally wanted to take the box of pearls out so that Kang Jierong could not get angry when she looked at her, but Kang Jierong snatched it away like a food protection. "Even if it's going to be smashed and ground, it's my business. How could it be your turn to touch you here? Do you want to pick up a ready-made bargain? Don't you see if you deserve it!"
The maid had a kindness, but she was not a human being, and she couldn't help but feel resentful. She said it directly, "You can't bear to give up, so why bother to curse people like you dislike?"
But Kang Jierong's heart had accumulated more than a day or two. It had been buried as early as when she came to Prince Ping's Mansion, or when she heard that she had recognised her ancestors and returned to her hometown.
Kang's aunt and Kang's wife will be furious because Mu Chengguan is the return of Kang Shouyi. How could Kang Jierong be generous and indifferent?
Because this incident touched the interests of the entire Kang family, and of course, it also included Kang Jierong.
Perhaps those resentment was not so obvious before actually entering the Pingwang Mansion, but after seeing Mu Shaoqin's favor for his daughter with his own eyes and the luxurious clothes and beautiful jewelry that Nianfu wore every day, Kang Jierong became more and more anxious day by day.
Originally, these things could be hers.
If Nianfu did not come back, as long as you wait a few more years, Mu Shaoqin will die and his younger brother inherited the family business, all of these things can be hers.
But now, she can't even pinch a flower in this mansion.
If Nianfu is so beautiful and amazing, she might feel better, but the question is, what else can Nianfu besides cooking?
He is neither noble nor elegant, and is also very stingy.
Last time, I just wanted to help Mrs. Tan secretly, so she held a grudge against me. Not only did I ignore myself, I also gave me such little pearls to humiliate myself.
But it was such a person, but so many people came to flatter her. The emperor granted her a fief and the princess gave her the gift of the queen of the previous dynasty. Even choosing a husband was as beautiful as a legitimate immortal descending to earth. Why did she occupy all the good things in this world alone?
Kang Jierong couldn't swallow this.
To be honest, she felt that Nianfu was not even as good as herself in many aspects!
At least, if she was in the position of Nianfu, she would never be so stingy that she would not even be reluctant to give away a few pearls. Of course, this does not include Nianfu.
After looking at the box of small pearls again, Kang Jierong had the urge to smash it in an instant. But in the end, she was still a little reluctant.
She took a deep breath with her most proud forbearance, hid all her unwillingness in her heart, and began to plot what to do next.
She has always been good at observing words and expressions, so when she first came to the palace to pay homage to the empress dowager, she saw that the empress dowager did not like Nianfu and his daughter. She expressed her loyalty according to her wishes, and she immediately won the favor of the empress dowager.
She did her business for the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother gave her a good marriage. Everyone got what they needed, fair and reasonable.
But before instructing Mrs. Tan to make trouble, she did not make a mistake, but later she wanted to help Chai Rong but she did not help. She had not made any achievements. How can she seek a good marriage when she turned around?
Kang Jierong suddenly became anxious, secretly annoyed that Ouyang Kang was such a fool who was confused about the charm, and it was really a waste of her hard work.
That day, the refreshment she prepared for Ouyang Kang had added good ingredients. He kept his ugly appearance after eating it. At that time, he would just push a girl in and wait for Nianfu to come. He would start to clamor at the right time and take the freshly released Jun Ma Ye into the water.
It’s a pity that Ouyang Kang was not fooled at all, but she almost exposed her fault. If she hadn’t been able to clean up quickly, she would have almost shown up.
Thinking about Ouyang Kang's appearance again, Kang Jierong couldn't help but sigh. Why did such a fairy-like figure like a chef Nianfu?
She was also a little moved by Ouyang Kang. I still remember when she first met, she looked at Ouyang Kang and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. If she could have the same power and status as Nianfu, she would be willing to choose such a handsome man as her husband. But she was not, so she wanted to marry into a high school. A rich and powerful person like Chai Rong and Gongsun Hong were her first choice.
But it would be easy to marry someone like that? If she could not please the queen mother, without her support, she would not even be able to marry a poor woman like Ouyang Kang.
But to make the Empress Dowager happy, Hui Niang and her daughter have to be unhappy.
Nianfu is really too skillful and difficult to deal with. Maybe Hui Niang can be a breakthrough?
Then what should she do?
Kang Jierong plotted against Hui Niang and her daughter at this end of the Prince Ping's Mansion, and Nianfu was also talking about things related to her at the other end of the Prince Ping's Mansion.
"Mom, didn't you teach me all the time? You have to live a rich life as a poor life. Why did you forget it when you come to yourself? Always spoiling the Kang family cousin so much, are you going to let someone treat us as fat sheep?"
In fact, there is nothing to say about a few beads. It’s just that Nianfu realized the seriousness of some problems, so he criticized and educated his mother. The mother and daughter didn’t talk so much, so she told her truthfully what she thought.
But the truth is most not good. Hui Niang said so much that she couldn't hold back her face and said unhappily. "What's wrong with you, girl? But if you give your cousin Kang a few pearls, you'll be treacherous for so long. I won't let you give it to me next time, right?"
"Is this a matter of a few pearls? What's the difference between mother's things and mine? It's not that I didn't give them, but I just don't want to give them so hard. To put it bluntly, she deserves those good things?"
Hui Niang was a little displeased, "Nianfu, why are you so embarrassed by the dog's eyes now? I know you blame her for not helping you in the last time when Mrs. Tan, but you don't think about it. She is a little girl's house, so much can she manage? But you are fine, she will shy away the shame of being a sister, and she doesn't look like she is a sister?"
Nianfu was also annoyed, "Where is her sister from a family? I am worthy of being her sister from my heart? If I want to say that she is ignorant, how can Miss Yao know to speak for me?"
Hui Niang was so angry that she was so contradicted her that she started to get angry, and her words started to rush, "Why is she not your sister anymore? You are a serious relative, don't you still want to admit it? You have only been a princess for a few days, and you have learned so much that your relatives don't recognize you. You may have been studying bad business in Beijing. You are so stingy and care about everything. Seeing that others give you good yarn, you are willing to give her big beads. Seeing that your cousin has no money, you can't bear to leave. Do you dare say that you don't have this thought in your heart?"
Nianfu didn't expect his mother to think of her like this, and she choked in her throat in one breath, and she almost suffocated herself!
Anyway, there is nothing to be particular about talking to her mother, so she said straight away, "Yes! I can't bear to give her big beads, but are you wrong? Why is the Kang family treating us so much? I still have to pretend to be generous in front of them? Do you think that giving a bead can win people's hearts?"
Seeing that his daughter was still yelling at her, Hui Niang was so angry, "Why should I win people's hearts? If I treat others well, they will naturally treat us well. How did my mother teach you since she was a child? You used to be at home, but now why has it become like this? You are so unkind and unfaithful, and you are not afraid of others poking your backbone behind you!"
Innocence! Nian Fu was anxious when he saw that he couldn't understand it with his mother, "How did I plan? You told me that in the past, but can we be the same now as before? If we were still as poor as before, do you think she would look at us more? Why don't you understand? Our identities are different now, and we have to think more about whether we should do anything. It's like last time, why did you give me the jewelry sent by Gongsun's family? That's Gongsun Hong's mother's thing, I just put it out so stupidly, and I'm going to see what people are thinking about? My father still stopped me and didn't let me say you, but if you don't change this careless problem, you will definitely cause big trouble in the future."
When Hui Niang heard about this, she felt a sense of shame and anger in her heart. What did she do wrong? She actually let the father and daughter unite to deceive her?
"Okay, you father and daughter both treat me as a fool, right? Since I think I'm useless, I'll go back to the countryside! Anyway, you have a father now, it doesn't matter whether you want me, a mother!"
The words that were angry were not nice, Nianfu was really angry, "Mom, can you tell me some reason? Why do you make me feel like those ignorant women? When you quarrel, you cry, make a fuss, and hang yourself. You always have to go back to the countryside. Grandma and grandpa are all here, how do you go back? Fortunately, you have learned the rules from Li Shanggong so many times, and where have you learned?"
"You!" Hui Niang was furious and almost hit her with a slap. But looking at her daughter's little face that was extremely similar to her, she could not hit her with shocked, injured and extremely stubborn eyes.
He could only slap his hand on the table with hatred and said angrily, "Okay, since you don't like me, then just get married early to avoid me from being hindered by you! Get out!"
