Chapter 21 Making fun of her
“go out !”
Shenwei keeps her anger and forbears the impulse to choke Jingsheng, then she throws a pillow out to drive him out. Finally, she doesn’t check up and goes home directly no matter xiaotao persuades her.
It’s noon when she backs home. At this time, Muqian and Minglan is in the living room chatting and enjoying cakes. They seems very glad when shenwei sees them.
Shenwei gets off with the help of xiaotao. Seeing her, Muqian and Minglan pause a for seconds, but later, Minglan looks at shenwei naturally, “xiaoci, Mu steward said that you got a fever last night, how do you feel now? Why do you come back so early? “
Shenwei squeezes her eyes. Minglan tells to her as a female master of the family. “i am eating snacks with Qianqian, the cakes are cooked by the cook of Mu family, they are more delicious than WeiZhenFang, xiaoci, taste it.”
Her intention is so clear, if shenwei still keep silence, she would disappoint Minglan.
“ thanks for your kindness Miss Ming. The cook of MY family is surely better than WeiZhenFang. Do you know the cook of WeiZhenFang comes from my family?” shenwei gestures xiaotao to help her to the sofa.” i enjoy it everyday. Miss Ming comes here rarely, you should enjoy them all day, or it’s really a pity!”
Minglan’s face frozen suddenly, she looks at Shenwei and bites her lips. She looks innocent, as if shenwei bullied her. Shenwei shows her white eyes to her and says,”there are only eight kinds of cakes, i seemed to eat twenty kinds of cakes last time. Miss ming, if you like them, come to my home often, then you can enjoy all of them!” shenwei smiles brightly.
“you...!” Minglan becomes awkward completely now. However, she is an educated woman, she can hide her mood well. But her eyes still express her dissatisfaction.
Minglan can hide her mood, but Muqian can not do that. She thinks it’s Jiangci robbed the position of her brother’s wife.
In Muqian’s opinion, Minglan is the right woman to fit her brother. As for Jiangci, she is not deserved. “Jiangci! You wild woman. You are nothing in my family, don’t you think i am afraid to lesson you. You are not fit to carry shoes for Miss Ming!”
“ please use your brain when you rebuke others next time ok? Yes, i am not fit to carry shoes for Miss Ming, but it seems that you always do that for her, my kind sister!”
She is sick and pale now. But the words come out from her mouth is sharp and totally different from her look. She is glib.
“ i hate bending to pick up shoes for others, so i think qianqian is really good at doing this!” shenwei lifts her lips and smiles. The more angry Muqian is, the happier she will be.
“xiaoci!” Minglan interrupts her, as if Shenwei is an unreasonable children. She says accusingly,” xiaoci, qianqian is your sister-in-law after all, you are family, why do you talk like this?”
Minglan’s words sounds like relieving her, actually she sets a fire again. Hearing her words, Muqian is angry again,” who is family with her? I am not her family! She doesn’t deserve that!” Muqian looks at Shenwei coldly with dissatisfaction and contempt.
“ qianqian, you have mistakes,too. Xiaoci is your brother’s wife, how can you treat her like this? You will make her shamed in Mu family!”
Hum!
This woman is clever! Shenwei has to applaud for Minglan. The woman has a good speaking skills. She can set the war easily and won’t let others find her intention.
“ Ming, why you still respect her, she doesn’t deserve. My brother doesn’t like her at all. It’s her wanted to marry my brother. She even can’t compare with my servant.”
Minglan covers Muqian’s mouth quickly after hearing her words, gesturing with her eyes to stop her.however, she is very complacent now.
Shenwei looks at her behavior and ensures that Muqian is just being used. Shenwei shakes her head reluctantly.
“xiaoci, qianqian is too young to know things. She is not deliberate. So don’t care it.” Minglan explains quickly as if shenwei is angry.
“nope,” shenwei says generously, “qianqian is young now, as her sister, i won’t blame her.”
Seeing this, Minglan frowns. Shenwei would shout and behave like a wild woman in usual, she can even quarrel openly with her regardless of Mu family. No matter what she said, shenwei would get angry immediately and then do something fool. Today, Minglan expected to irritate her in front of Muqian. To her surprise, shenwei didn’t fall into her trap. That’s impossible!
Finding Minglan’s smile breaking, shenwei lifts her lips and smiles.
“in my opinion, Miss Ming and qianqian are more like sisters, you have better relationship than me!”
“of course, Ming would be my sister-in-law without you!” Muqian can’t help saying.
“really?” shenwei still smiles. She is so sick now that she can’t stay here any more. “hawk, hawk!” xiaotao comes to her in a hurry, “ Miss, you are still sick, you need to rest now!don’t forget the words of Mr Mu!”
Xiaotao is clever enough to know jiangci’s need. She is pleasure to help jiangci because jiangci is different from the past. And, today’s Miss jiang is really sharp!
Shenwei smiles weakly,” i want to rest ,too. But the guest is here now, as the female master of Mu family, i can’t leave the guest here.” shenwei sees Minglan apologetically, “ Miss Ming, don’t mind it, the girl is too young to say proper words.”
Minglan’s anger has risen to climax.” nope, how can i be angry ? xiaoci, you are sick now, go to rest quickly. I am familiar to the whole Mu family, i grew up here and knows every corners of the house. In an impolite manner, i am more familiar to Mu family than you.”
Minglan is reminding shenwei she is more qualified than shenwei to stay in Mu family. It’s a declaration of war.
Shenwei is always a people who likes to challenge the difficult. “ your words are right,Miss Ming.” shenwei slaps xiaotao’s hands and wants to sit down. After sitting down, she ordered xiaotao to catch several cakes and milk.
Slim fingers beating the table, she smiles brightly,” Miss Ming, you are not hurry to go home right? Taste the other kinds of cakes.” “ the city develops quickly these years, many buildings appeared just in a blink. It’s totally different with the things we saw when we were young, right ?it’s all because our country is strong enough to make it changing.”
“yes!” minglan clenches her teeth tightly. The fool woman, when does she become clever. She should mock her!
“ auh, Miss Ming, i have to say thanks to you.” shenwei turns to Minglan suddenly.
Minglan has a bad feeling now.” you are so careful Miss Ming, i am not a good wife for nanshen. Thanks for boiling medicine for nanshen.”
“xiaoci, i grew up with Shen, i know all his habits. It’s not your fault, you are young and you will know him one day.” Minglan smiles, she finds superiority from Jiangci finally. She grew up with Munanshen and they have known each other for 20 years. As for Jiangci, she only married Shen for two years and Shen doesn’t like her at all.
Thinking of the scene she saw from their room, Minglan is very glad now. There was a quilt on the ground, so Shen didn’t touch the woman in the past two years?
“yes, Miss Ming knows Nanshen well. I am not a competent wife.” at this time, xiaotao comes out with a plate of cake,” Miss, this is cake you need.”
“ give it to Miss Ming. These are all new products, Miss Ming , taste it.” shenwei says as a master.” xiaotao, orders the cook to make more and pack some for Miss Ming.”
“ no,I...” Minglan is so shamed now, she nearly pounces on her to tear her.
She is the only woman for Munanshen, dare Jiangci can talk to her as the female master! “ i am so familiar with Shen and qianqian, if i want to eat the cakes, i would come here. Xiaoci, won’t you mind it?”
“of course not!” shenwei smiles,” i always welcome Miss Ming!” she pauses for a while,” but Minglan, don’t boil medicine for nanshen next time.”
“why?” Minglan thinks the woman is jealous now.
“ because it’s so wasteful!” shenwei smiles brightly, her face is pale now but with a sense of cunning.” nanshen didn’t drink even a little, he poured it .”
