The Reborn Eldest Daughter is Not to be Trifled With

Chapter 154
During dinner, Shangguan Ning asked Cong Yu to invite Jiang Yilan to the Fuxi Pavilion in advance in the courtyard next door.

In Shangguan Mansion, except for special days such as festivals or birthdays, each yard can eat by itself. The dining room in the mansion has a fixed time every day and the dishes are set early. If the time for eating is over They had to solve it by themselves, and except for Ning's Shoukang Court, Jiang's Fuxi Pavilion, and Shangguan Ning's Ningyu Pavilion, there were no small kitchens in the Shangguan Mansion, and Shangguan Jin was away all the year round, so Jinhua Court did not have a place. In the small kitchen, Shangguan Jinruo spends more than days in one month in the mansion for socializing outside, so the dinner in Shangguan's mansion is much more unusual than that of other big families.

When Shangguan Ning arrived at Fuxi Pavilion, Mrs. Jiang and Madam Hou were still holding the ledger to check the results of the morning inventory. Because it was dinner time, the maids and mothers in Fuxi Pavilion were all busy, so Shangguan Ning stopped the little girl from entering Notifying the house, he picked up the curtain and went straight into the house.

The room was quiet, Mrs. Jiang was sitting beside the desk made of agarwood wood, Madam Hou was standing beside Mrs. Jiang, half-bent, pointing to a certain place on the account book, talking to Mrs. Jiang in a low voice. , Jiang's face was calm, and he nodded slightly.

In April and May, the sun sets much later than in winter. At this time, the afterglow of the setting sun penetrates through the window panes of the house and shines on the two people who are concentrating on reconciling accounts. The warm and soft light makes people feel Shangguan Ning felt a sense of unreality. He hadn't felt such peace and tranquility for many years.

"Miss?"

Cong Yu's voice came from behind Shangguan Ning. With this sound, the two masters and servants who had been concentrating on reconciliation raised their heads and looked at the door together. Behind Cong Yu, Jiang Yilan also happened to step into the door. .

The dinner dishes are very simple, but even so, Jiang Yilan swallowed subconsciously. Yesterday, the maids brought the meals to the guest room, but they were only a few small dishes, but they were delicate, but compared to the dishes on the table in front of her But I don't know how much the difference is.

"Ning'er, try this."

Jiang personally took the chopsticks from Baimei's hand and picked up some dark green and oily vegetables for Shangguan Ning, and put them directly in Shangguan Ning's bowl.

One of the vegetable leaves in Shangguan Ning's hands could only feel a slightly bitter but fragrant complex taste spreading from the tip of his tongue, and the vegetable leaves in his mouth were very crisp and tender as he chewed lightly with his white teeth, which Shangguan Ning had never tasted before. dishes.

"Master Pu sent this over. It is said that this dish is called 'Doctor Lotus'. It is only found in the extreme north of Dayong. It is very rare."

Shangguan Ning was startled, when did Mr. Pu even start delivering food to Shangguan's mansion?But after thinking about it, I realized that it was probably because of the incident two days ago that I offended my grandmother, so I tried to make amends and please myself. After all, my mother and I just borrowed the light of my grandmother.

"This name is pleasant to the ear and tastes very refreshing. Ning'er can have such a good taste, thanks to Uncle Park."

Shangguan Ning had a smile on her lips, her cheeks were slightly red, and her eyes were full of sparkles. She really overshadowed the delicious food on the table.

Seeing her daughter, Jiang became more and more delighted, and her pampering was beyond words.

The intimacy between the mother and daughter made Jiang Yilan, who was sitting across the table, feel very glaring. She looked at Shangguan Ning with a hint of malice in her eyes, her left hand hidden under the tablecloth was clenched into a fist, and her teeth were Bite together so hard that the cheeks on both sides of the teeth are sore and swollen.

Why?As a beautiful daughter, she, Shangguan Ning, can live high and have a mother who really loves her, but she can only be sent to the side of others to be humble and lowly, and be ignored by others. Jiang Yilan is not reconciled, she wants to go She wants to be an upright and upright daughter, and Jiang Yilan has what Shangguan Ning has, so she can do whatever she can to make God treat her so unfairly?
"Auntie, Lan'er hasn't thanked you formally yet. Lan'er offers a glass of water instead of wine to thank Auntie for taking her in."

Jiang Yilan stabilized her emotions, a shy smile appeared on her delicate face, and she stood up holding the water glass on the table, looking very pitiful, her eyes were innocent and misty looking forward looked at Chiang.

"They're all from my own family, so Yilan doesn't have to be so restrained."

Jiang's face was pale, but it was not good to directly refuse. After finishing speaking, she brought the water glass to her lips and took a sip, and made a downward gesture with her right hand to indicate that Jiang Yilan could take a seat.

Jiang Yilan touched a moderately soft nail, and she was really full of dissatisfaction and resentment in her heart, but she had to hold on, but the smile on her face seemed very unnatural and even a little weird.

The meal was a bit boring because of Jiang Yilan's joining. In order to gain Jiang's favor, Jiang Yilan kept looking for new topics to try to attract Jiang's attention, but no matter what Jiang Yilan said, Jiang's was not warm Unable to see why, Jiang Yilan had no choice but to close her mouth in the end but couldn't force a smile on her face.

Shangguan smiled secretly, this is called preconceived thinking, when he looks at someone pleasing to the eye, he will feel comfortable in doing everything, but if he doesn't like someone at first, then what he does will make people uncomfortable or even annoying , and it is obvious that Jiang Yilan is the latter in her mother's heart.

"Ning'er, you and Yilan should go to Shoukang Garden first, and mother will go later."

After dinner, it was still early for a few people to drink another cup of tea. Shangguan Ning knew that her mother wanted to use this time to quickly check the remaining accounts with Madam Hou, so as to avoid any mistakes in the future.

"Yes."

Shangguan Ning and Jiang Yilan left Fuxi Pavilion and went to Shoukang Garden side by side. Along the way, Jiang Yilan inquired Shangguan Ning about Ning's preferences and temperament. Thoroughly, Jiang Yilan knows how to do what she likes very well. In her previous life, her status and popularity in the Shangguan Mansion far surpassed that of herself, the daughter of the eldest daughter, but she also has an unshirkable responsibility.

Shangguan Ning pretended to be ignorant of Jiang Yilan's insinuations, so she blurted it out in a few words when she couldn't avoid it, so Jiang Yilan still didn't know anything when she saw the gate of Shoukang Garden, and she lowered her head and gave Shangguan Ning a resentful look.

"Grandmother, did Ning'er come late?"

As soon as Shangguan Ning stepped into the room, she saw a huge group of people, and most of the chairs on both sides were full. There was a man standing in the middle of the room, looking at his back and clothes, he was a man.
