In the main owner's room.
The fourth young lady, Mrs. Qiao, was so angry that she grabbed the handkerchief after hearing the little girl's report.
Mother Chen, who was standing on the side, stuffed the little girl with a piece of silver and sent her away.
"Mother Chen, look at me marrying such a person. Not only did I make soup for the servants to eat, but I would hang out with the maids in the house during the day." Qiao Shi screamed, and he raised his hand. He swung the tea bowl by his hand to the ground.
Mother Chen asked Chuntao to close the door before she turned around to comfort Qiao.
"My good lady, you must keep your voice down. This place is different from ours, but don't let people listen to it and annoy the young master."
Joe's face flushed with anger, and he couldn't help crying.
"Why do I have such a hard life? It's not my fault that my color is not good. I thought my color was not good, why did you go to my house to propose marriage in the first place. After entering the door, the wedding night would make trouble with me. His face was literally thrown on the ground and stepped on it..."
No one wants their husband to dislike their bad looks, and the Qiao family is the same. But the appearance is inherent, where can it be controlled by humans. There is no other way for Qiao to be angry with the Fourth Young Master.
Mrs. Qiao was the direct daughter of the official secretary of the Ministry of Personnel. She was favored by her parents since she was a child, and her servants also held her. The only thing that frustrated her growing up was this marriage. Her husband didn't want to see her when she got married, and her servants looked down on her even more.
Thinking of the days since getting married, Qiao's heart is full of sadness, and the tears can't stop flowing down.
Mother Chen walked over and comforted her while wiping away her tears.
"My good lady, don't cry, your eyes should be swollen when you cry..."
Chen's mother is Qiao's nanny, and she is also a dowry maid, and the relationship between the two is unusual. Chen's mother almost felt sorry for Qiao's daughter as her own daughter, and it was very uncomfortable to see her miss being so sad. Don't say that Mr. Qiao can't, and even she can't. You can't force the young master to come to the young lady's room and prevent him from getting close to the maids around him, not to mention that there is something wrong with them.
It's a long way to mention it.
Qiao's new marriage was disliked by her husband, and the fourth young master didn't even have a hole in the room, so he moved directly to the study. Qiao Shi held back her anger and went home to complain on the day she returned, and the family told her the reason.
It turned out that in order to make this marriage, Qiao's parents faked their daughter's portrait, and they also asked someone to talk about it. Mrs. Jinyang Hou didn't ask for it for a while, and because Qiao's parents rarely took her out, so There are no rumors about Qiao's appearance and posture outside at all, and there is no way to study it.
In fact, seriously, Qiao's appearance is not ugly, with a small round face and single phoenix eyes, but her body is rounder, and then she has a short and thick neck, which makes her whole person look strong. Just because Ruan Siyi loved beautiful things since he was a child, and all the maids around him were beautiful as flowers, how could he bear to marry a stupid wife like a pig.
After lifting the hijab, Ruan Siyi was greatly disappointed and disgusted and wanted to turn away. Qiao was shocked and dragged him, and the two started to make trouble, and the whole house knew it.
Qiao's parents were also very annoyed that their daughter was not welcomed by their son-in-law, but after all, their own mistakes were made first, so they persuaded Qiao to go back and coax her son-in-law well.
Well, man, it's been a while. Coax the man well, when the time comes to conceive a son, the future will be better. If a man likes beauty, he will give him two concubines of good color. In this big family in Beijing, what kind of wife is not like this, it is not easy to get a wife and a concubine and serenity.
Qiao knew that what her parents said was right, and it was also for her good. She also knew in her heart that since she became a relative, even if she was hated by her husband, she could only accept her fate, and she would not mention the sadness and sorrow in the process.
After she came back, she also wanted to flatter her husband, but because of her face, she couldn't lose face. It wasn't until she heard rumors outside that her mother-in-law was going to add people to her husband's room, and after the nanny's repeated consolation, did she think about going to her husband's small gestures.
The good thing was the bowl of tonic soup, but who knew that her infatuation was rewarded to the inferior maid. Originally, I felt angry and sad, but here comes another 'Young master and maid hang out in the study'.
Mrs. Qiao sat there crying heartbroken. No matter how she persuaded Chen's mother, she couldn't calm her down.
"Those shameless hooves, can't sit still so soon, so lack of men?"
Hearing Chen's mother's curse words, Qiao Shi cried even more sadly.
is not that right
There was only a man like her husband in Jinxiu Courtyard, and her husband didn't want to get close to her, but didn't the maids rush forward and back
Seeing that she said the wrong thing, Chen's mother slapped her face and comforted her. It took a long time to comfort Qiao's tears.
Mr. Qiao sat there and pondered for a long time before he said angrily: "No, I can't sit still! He doesn't want to see me, and now no one in the yard looks at me."
Mother Chen sighed and said nothing.
The young lady just got married and has no foundation in the mansion, and the fourth young master does not want to rest in the main room. Which maid in the yard doesn't laugh? I don't know if the young lady doesn't go out very often, but Mama Chen knows it in her heart, but she doesn't dare to mention it as a young lady.
"Those little hooves actually dare to hang out with Xianggong in his study in broad daylight. Typically, they don't take me seriously. If I don't treat them, they don't know that there is a young lady like me on them."
Mother Chen saw that Qiao was determined to kill the chicken and set an example, but she did not stop it.
It's good to be able to kill a thousand examples, let those girls accept their restless heart, and let them face it squarely, this Jinxiuyuan is not without a hostess.
"Young madam, you can't serve those three pots at once, will it be too much trouble?"
The young lady is going to clean up those hooves. Chuntao, who has been outraged by the maid these days, is naturally happy to see her, but she thinks a little more than the young lady.
"It's too obvious to clean up three at a time. Would you like to kill the chicken first to warn the monkeys?"
Xiaohua was lucky to be missed, and thanks to her keeping a low profile and unobtrusive.
Qiao Shi thought for a while, "You wait and pass that Biyuan over, and say that I want to ask her, didn't she drink my bowl of tonic soup that day, just using the excuse."
Chuntao led the order out the door, and was about to look at the young master's forefoot to go out, and she called Biyuan over from behind.
…
The fourth young master left the study room on the front foot, and Chuntao passed Biyuan away on the back foot, and Xiaohua felt bad in her heart.
After a while, Bi Yuan came back. Her face was red and swollen, and she could see the clue even if she covered it with a handkerchief.
As soon as she entered the house, she rushed to the table and crawled and cried.
This movement was very loud, many girls saw it, and some maids with faces gathered around to comfort them.
Cuilan and Liu Ye came out of nowhere and surrounded them, anxiously asking what happened. As for whether this anxiety is real or fake, Xiaohua doesn't know.
Seeing that everyone was comforting Biyuan, it was not easy for her to continue to install wood. He also went up to pretend to comfort Bi Yuan, and was attentive to apply the face to Bi Yuan with a water basin and a handkerchief.
Bi Yuan sat there, feeling both uncomfortable and resentful in her heart. Although she is just a slave, she has never been beaten like this since she was a child, and who will not give her some face when she goes out. The four young ladies, Mrs. Qiao, called her over, and involuntarily pressed a charge of deceit on her head, and let the maid beside her slap her mouth.
Where is this slapping her mouth? It's obviously killing her and hitting her in the face!
Bi Yuan has always been accustomed to being decent, so how could she accept this, no wonder she cried so miserably, who has always been bashful and arrogant.
The movement on this side of the study attracted a group of rough girls in the yard to watch. The maids who took advantage of the face were all comforting Bi Yuan that she didn't have time to care about them, and they all gathered around the door to watch.
No wonder they like to join in the fun so much. The fourth young master does not want to see the fourth young lady. Everyone knows that it is the first time that the fourth young lady has been suppressed for so long. They must come and pay attention to what is going on.
The rabbit died and the fox was sad. Even Biyuan, the most respectable steward in the Jinxiu courtyard, was beaten by the young lady. They would definitely think of themselves. After all, Biyuan was not the only one who was so careful.
Bi Yuan was comforted by everyone for a while before she stopped crying and asked Xiao Hua to cover her face. She was very angry and told the reason for being beaten.
Xiaohua was shocked when she heard the reason, and the other maids were even more surprised when they heard it.
The fourth young lady beat Biyuan because the fourth young master gave Biyuan a bowl of tonic soup.
Is she stupid or stupid? Isn't this a slap in the face of the Fourth Young Master
Of course, some little girls knew that this was not the case. No one saw what happened in the study at noon. Everyone in the yard had eyes. It was also passed on privately, and even a few little girls secretly scolded Bi Yuan and their shameless together.
But they definitely won't say it in person in this situation, they only need to know that the fourth young lady beat Biyuan just because of a bowl of tonic soup that the fourth young master gave to Biyuan.
After a while, everyone in the Jinxiu courtyard knew that the fourth young lady had beaten Biyuan by killing a chicken and a monkey. The reason was that the fourth young master had boiled the fourth young lady's own soup and rewarded Biyuan.
There was even a little girl who interjected and said that the bowl of tonic soup was not made by the Fourth Young Lady herself, and she just looked at Balabala and the like. The people around hurriedly covered the mouth of this little girl who didn't close the door. The masters cook soup with their own hands and only pretend to be like this. It would be more sincere to ask you a girl to talk more next to her.
All in all, the rumors spread throughout the Jinxiu Courtyard, and there were even good-looking girls spread outside the Courtyard.
After a while, all the servants in Jinyang Hou's residence knew about this matter, and of course it spread to the ears of Bi Yuan's mother, Niangqu.
