The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

The midsummer sun is unbearably hot, but Pingnan Palace is full of towering ancient trees, green shades, and cool breezes. Even the guest room Mingshan Courtyard in the southeast corner is surrounded by green trees, dotted with flowers, and extremely cool.

Feng, the old feudal lord of the Xie family, was arranged to live here.

It was very quiet around Mingshanyuan, but it was very lively inside. Second Miss Xie, Xie Ziyan, and a group of maids and women were having fun in front of Mr. Feng, making Ms. Feng smile, and the room was full of laughter.

"Look how well Xie Ziyan coaxed their old lady, no wonder she dared to be so arrogant." As soon as Gu Ruyan entered the yard, she heard laughter and couldn't help but bite Gu Qingyan's ear.

Ye Yuxiao gave them both a tug and reminded them: "Since Miss Xie doesn't want you to stand up for her, you should stop talking nonsense later."

"I know, cousin." The two of them responded in unison.

When they entered the room, Xie Qingling had already sat down, and Gu Changping was saluting Feng. Mrs. Feng couldn't see Gu Yuanlang as promised today, and she was holding her breath in her heart. But seeing each other, this kind of thing was not done openly. She could only show a loving smile, accepted their courtesy, and asked them to sit down. .

Gu Qingyan and Gu Ruyan remembered Ye Yuxiao's instructions and sat quietly in their seats without saying a word. They only watched how Xie Qingling acted and reminded Gu Changping in a low voice.

Xie Qingling sat on the other side of Feng's family and said with a smile: "I went to look for the second sister just now, but the second sister was not there. I guess she is at grandma's place, which is really good."

Feng Shi smiled and asked, "What are you doing with your second sister?"

Xie Qingling smiled and said: "The skirt you picked for me didn't fit in a few places. Thanks to my second sister's enthusiasm, she took it and changed it for me. I came here specifically to thank her."

An obvious look of surprise flashed across Xie Ziyan's face. But she didn't deny it. After all, Xie Qingling was praising her, and he was praising her in front of so many people.

Didn't Xie Qingling come to complain? Why did he come to praise Xie Ziyan? Gu Qingyan and Gu Ruyan couldn't sit still anymore, and put their hands on Ye Yuxiao's arms.

Ye Yuxiao knew what they were thinking and immediately gave them a look, signaling them to calm down.

Above, Xie Qingling smiled and said to Feng: "Grandma, I got the dress from the second sister, but I haven't had time to look at it yet. You happen to be free right now, why don't we take a look at the second sister's craftsmanship?"

Hearing this, Xie Ziyan seemed to have guessed what Xie Qingling was going to do, and immediately said: "Changing a skirt is not making a skirt. What's so good about it?"

"Second sister, please don't be modest. The brothers and sisters of the Gu family also want to see your craftsmanship." Xie Qingling's eyebrows were curved and she smiled softly.

Feng glanced at Ye Yuxiao and others, and before Xie Ziyan could object again, she said to Xie Qingling: "Where is the skirt? Take it out."

The Gu family is watching. If she doesn't take out the skirt, it will look like Xie Ziyan is not good at work. They came to the capital this time to see each other. It would not be a good idea for such a reputation to spread.

Feng spoke, and Xie Ziyan could only shut up even though she was reluctant.

Xie Qingling waved to Ruyu to come forward, took the skirt from her hand, and unfolded it in front of everyone.

As her delicate hands shook, countless "silk ribbons" suddenly hung down and fluttered in the wind. This is not a pleated skirt, it is clearly a hundred skirts.

Ye Yuxiao thought to herself that this skirt would be quite fashionable in modern times, but it's a pity that this is the Xi Dynasty.

Feng stared at the skirt and pursed her lips into a straight line. She has lived to this age and has never seen anything. With a little thought, she can guess the cause and effect. No wonder Xie Ziyan wanted to stop Xie Qingling from taking the skirt just now. It turned out that the skirt was cut.

She is someone who has experienced strong winds and waves, so in her eyes, such nastiness is nothing. However, the Gu family brothers and sisters were sitting in the living room, and they had to watch the joke for nothing!

Looking at Feng's uncertain expression, Gu Qingyan and Gu Ruyan finally understood Xie Qingling's intention and were filled with admiration.

Ye Yuxiao glanced at them and smiled softly. She just said that Miss Xie was very powerful and had nothing to do with being honest and weak.

Ms. Feng was very reluctant to expose the Xie family's family disgrace in front of the Gu family. She suppressed her anger and asked Xie Ziyan pleasantly: "Is this the dress you changed?"

Xie Ziyan deeply regretted it at this time. She didn't dare to be greedy for credit just now and fell into Xie Qingling's trap. But it was too late to defend at this time, so I could only nod bravely: "Yes, I changed it."

How come she doesn't know how to use a pretense to fool her? Could it be that she would dig deeper in front of the Gu family to dismantle her? Mrs. Feng hated the iron, so she had to grit her teeth and punish her: "Since you don't know how to change your skirt, don't reach out randomly and see what you have done to your eldest sister's skirt? Go back to your room now and give her a good dress." Your eldest sister will embroider a handkerchief as an apology."

Xie Ziyan was angry and resentful, but she didn't dare to defend her grandmother in public, so she lowered her head, turned and left.

Did Xie Qingling really succeed in suing this case? Gu Qingyan and Gu Ruyan were overjoyed and admired Xie Qingling.

At this moment, Xie Ziyan, who had already walked to the door, suddenly turned around and said to Xie Qingling: "Sister, I cut off your skirt actually for your sake. I know that you came to Pingnan Prince's Mansion to see you. But the eldest son didn't show up at all. You felt bad and didn't want to eat with them, but you couldn't find a good reason. So I cut off your skirt specially so that you would have an excuse not to go. .”

What's the reason? What nonsense. The purpose of what she said was to humiliate Xie Qingling about looking at each other, right? Ye Yuxiao frowned slightly and looked up.

Sure enough, Xie Qingling's face turned red and she clenched her handkerchief tightly.

Seeing Xie Qingling's embarrassment, Xie Ziyan suddenly felt that her counterattack was successful, and her eyes and brows were full of pride.

Feng was very dissatisfied with Xie Ziyan's behavior, but she also felt that the most embarrassing person was Xie Qingling, and immediately scolded: "Go back to your room!"

Xie Qingling slowly stood up, tears welling up in her eyes.

Ye Yuxiao frowned and looked towards Xie Ziyan. Looking at each other today, it was indeed rude for Gu Yuanlang not to show up. But the Xi Dynasty is different from later generations. Looking at each other is a tacit thing. Since it is not brought to the table, how can it lose face? It was Xie Ziyan who deliberately made things explicit to embarrass Xie Qingling!

The matter involved Gu Yuanlang, and Ye Yuxiao was very angry. She pushed Gu Qingyan, who was about to take out a whip, and stood up to argue with Xie Ziyan.

Unexpectedly, Gu Changping moved faster than her. He stood up quickly and turned to Xie Ziyan: "Miss Xie, I'm afraid you are mistaken. The person who is looking at Miss Xie today is not my eldest brother, but me. .”

Wha, what? What's happening here? Everyone in the hall was stunned.
