An ugly girl starts off, then becomes a beauty

Although there were no rules waiting for Sang Ling in the Marquis' Mansion, Sang Feng'e, a member of his family, went to the Marquis' Mansion again in a timely manner.

At this time, Madam Zhaoyu happened to return from the palace, and the two families talked in the main house of Jingsi Residence.

Sang Feng'e had a half-smile on her face, and did not rush to speak - even when facing a family as powerful as the Nie family, her aura was not inferior.

After all, the Nie family was at fault for what happened yesterday.

Sang Ling fixed his eyes on his aunt for a while, then silently withdrew his gaze, and couldn't help but think of Sang Wu again. Yesterday's incident caused a lot of uproar in the city, and he couldn't be unaware of it, but he never showed up from beginning to end. Was it because of his status as a general that it was inconvenient to have a bad relationship with the Nie family? Also, why was Ma, the real mistress of the family, invisible in her marriage? Was it because she was pregnant, or was there another hidden reason?

Logically speaking, after the first three months, people wouldn't be so cautious. With such a good opportunity, wouldn't Ma want to do everything she can to bring Sang Mei out to show off?

She took a deep breath and suddenly felt that she had never understood what was going on in the Sang family from the beginning to the end.

"This kid took the initiative." Madam Zhaoyu said with a wry smile, "He delayed the auspicious time. Someone should go over to return the gift early in the morning. Madam, is your mother-in-law at home?"

When Nie Ce showed up in the morning, Madam Zhaoyu immediately arranged for someone to go to the guest house to inform them and presented a return gift. The Gao family was no exception. However, the idea of ​​"making up for the wedding gift" was completely empty talk. The ceremony was not made up. Sang Ling only kowtowed to Nie Ce three times.

"At home, has Lord Nie recovered now?" Sang Feng'e took a sip of hot water and said in a light tone.

How could she not know the truth and falsehood inside? Nie Ce and her son were brothers, and what happened between the two of them, she, as an elder, could guess most of it in a blink of an eye. She guessed that this was still related to Sang Ling. If she didn't say it once, she would be bumped into by this Nie Jialang?

It is hard to say whether Nie Jialang really ran away from his marriage or went there to bring Gao Heng and Sang Ling together.

But no one knew how things had calmed down. Young Marquis Nie was back again, and it was said that he brought Sang Ling into the palace in the morning.

She didn't want to delve into the cause and effect of the matter, and came to Marquis Mu Wu's mansion today for only one thing.

After Madam Zhaoyu finished her reply, Sang Feng'e motioned for Cheng Lao beside her to come forward, "Madam may not know, but Aling has been living with me this year. Her biological mother passed away early, and she has always been close to me. In the past, the people who served her have always been this old woman and--" As she spoke more, her long eyelashes drooped, and a hint of obvious coldness appeared on the woman's smooth face.

How could Madam Zhaoyu not understand? What happened yesterday, the bride's maidservant died the night before. No matter how young the slave was, it was still a slap in the face of her family.

He just smiled politely and didn't speak in a hurry.

Sang Feng'e said, "A Ling's mother passed away early, so there were not many people serving her. I was afraid that she was too reserved and would not be used to serving others, which would cause trouble to the mansion, so I took the maid with me. It's a pity that she was unlucky and passed away like that. But A Ling should always have an old man who knows the habits. The child's mother has been gone since he was young, and as an aunt, I can't take good care of him, so I can only worry more about these things."

She tried to persuade him with emotion and reason, even though there was no rule for a new bride to bring a nanny from her parents' home, but with the remark that "my biological mother is no longer around", Madam Zhaoyu could not refuse.

Furthermore, even if one could say that yesterday’s incident was the fault of the Nie family a thousand or ten thousand times, that’s still fair enough.

Madam Zhaoyu had roughly guessed Sang's intention of coming here since she saw the old woman. She was just taking advantage of the opportunity. If just this one thing could make the Sang family cover up yesterday's absurdity, she would be delighted.

He waved to the old woman Fang Lu beside him, and took Cheng Lao to Wuyuan.

Sang Feng'e was very satisfied, but she did not show any strong emotions on her face. Sang Ling witnessed the whole interaction between the two women and finally calmed down a little.

At least my mother's family showed some strength for once.

Madam Zhaoyu was always good at making arrangements. She asked someone to come up and put out cakes and honey paste, and continued to chat. "It's good for my daughter-in-law to have someone close to her. I was worried about this. It's not customary to employ people at home. Yesterday was really absurd. When things are settled, I will send someone to Gao's house to tell Madam. For a noble family like ours, this matter is absolutely unacceptable."

After saying that, she quickly changed the subject and asked with a smile, "How is your son's marriage going? I heard earlier that he fell in love with the daughter of the Zhou family? Has the wedding date been set?"

This one sentence got to the point that Sang Feng'e cared about most.

Sang Ling unconsciously moved from his seat, his hands on his knees trembling slightly. Sang Feng'e said calmly, "It's not decided yet, but I think we can prepare the wedding gift before the New Year."

"That's good." Madam Zhaoyu smiled softly, "There are many happy events this year. The queen asked about your son this morning. She has been having a headache for the past few days, and the doctors in the palace have always been perfunctory. So she asked when your son was born so that he could come to the palace to see the queen."

No one would not want to receive such a God-given blessing.

Although Sang Feng'e didn't want Gao Heng to rely on his medical skills to get by among the rich and powerful, meeting the Queen Mother was different after all. If he could get in touch with the palace, it would be a way out. So she paused, and although she was still calm, her expression couldn't help but lighten up a little, and she put on a sincere smile, "Thanks to the Queen's trust, I estimate that I should be back tomorrow at the latest."

"That's good." Madam Zhaoyu's smile did not fade. She leaned slightly and moved closer to Sang Feng'e. "When the time comes, you can send someone to tell me that your son will come to the palace with me. Wouldn't it be convenient?"

A favor was given to them out of the blue. Not only could the Sang family not be held responsible, but they were actually grateful to the Nie family in the end. Sang Ling pursed her lips, glanced at Madam Zhaoyu inadvertently, and sighed again: Among these elders, none of them was easy to deal with. After comparing them, she suddenly felt that Ma might be the simplest one.

It was so simple that even she, who had just traveled through time, could see through it at a glance.
