After meeting this time, Shen Yanqing was too busy to go out of the palace. He couldn't help but go out to find Su He in the middle of the night. He was scolded by Su He and fell ill the next day. Su He ordered not to leave the palace to look for him during this period of time.
Shen Yanqing aggrieved and agreed, and after returning home, he tossed hard in front of the officials below, and the efficiency of the six departments was more than a step higher, and he was afraid of being called by the prince for questioning.
Zhou Yunze finally returned to Weiyuan Marquis Mansion on the eve of junior high school. When he returned, he brought Gou'er and Zhang Ji with him. Mrs. Li and Zhou Yunxiu were waiting at the door. When they saw Zhou Yunze, whom they hadn't seen for more than a year, they burst into tears. Tears.
Su He was most afraid of this kind of situation, but these two people were still sincerely for the good of the original owner, so they could only try to comfort them. Entering the hall, Wei Yuanhou sat at the head, snorted coldly, and clearly expressed his dislike for his son whom he hadn't seen for a year.
Aunt Xue sat beside him, with a delicate and tender look, "Young master is back, Madam has been looking forward to the return of the young master for a long time, thanks to the second young lady, otherwise the young master may have to celebrate the new year at Zhuangzi .By the way, you don’t know yet, your younger brother Feng is now a sixth-rank Imperial Academy editor, and you, an elder brother, have to work hard.” The heart-pounding meaning of these words is nothing more than Zhou Yunze relying on his younger sister to return to his hometown. In the family, they used their own son to suppress Zhou Yunze.
Zhou Zifeng on the side looked at Zhou Yunze proudly, "Brother." His expression was not respectful, and he didn't intend to stand up to say hello at all.
What the two did, Wei Yuanhou and the old lady did not say a word, which shows the position of Zhou Yunze's direct line in the mansion.
Li Shi on the side was trembling with anger, she was about to speak, but was interrupted by the old lady on the side, "Since you are back, sit down." Then she motioned to the maid on the side to start serving food.
Zhou Yunxiu's lower lip was almost bleeding from being bitten, and she looked straight at the old lady, but saw the old lady frowned, "Xiu'er, you are not young anymore, you are going to get married soon, don't you even know the basic rules? Great joy What do you want to do with this look?"
Wei Yuanhou on the side said coldly, "If you don't want to eat, go back, and it will be annoying to watch all day long."
Protecting Mrs. Li and her younger sister behind her, Su He restrained the gentleness in his expression, and said expressionlessly, "Mr. Xue, you are a concubine. When will you be able to speak here?"
He looked at Aunt Xue, obviously aiming at her, the ancient filial piety was too great, the old lady, Weiyuan Hou Su He can't move for a while, Aunt Xue is just a concubine, dare to be so rampant, but also forget her own identity .
He naturally knew that Aunt Xue would be so bold because she relied on the old lady behind her. Aunt Xue and the old lady were aunts and nephews, and because of this, their status in the mansion has always been different from that of other concubines.
After saying this, Aunt Xue's face turned pale with anger. Before she could continue to make trouble, Su He waited for Weiyuan, "My mother has not yet become a regular wife, and Xue's concubine is sitting there, don't you know the rules? ? Today, I hate spoiling concubines and destroying wives the most, even if my father doesn’t want to be impeached by the judge tomorrow.”
The words were half a warning and half a threat. Weiyuan was trembling, but there was nothing he could do. He was really afraid that things would be made public. Although he felt that he would not dare to do this with the character of this mother and son, but if the other party really did it, His Weiyuan Hou will not be guaranteed.
The old lady raised her head and glanced at the grandson, a glint of gloom flashed in her eyes, and she quickly became calm, "Whatever Ze'er said, it's because the whole family says it hurts feelings. Let's eat quickly, and we'll talk about the rest later. "
In a few words, Su He revealed the matter, and Su He didn't intend to tear up his face with the other party now. He helped Li Shi to sit down, gave the other party a reassuring look, and sat down with his sister.
What happened at the dinner made the meal unpleasant, before Su He could fall asleep, he heard the news that Wei Yuan Hou found a reason to scold Li Shi.
The coldness in his eyes was even worse. When he woke up the next day, it was already snowing heavily. Su He opened his eyes and saw a package beside him. After opening, there were white and red fox fur inside. Check the number of fur. , enough to make two or three fox furs for him.
Needless to say, such a pure color was sent by someone in the palace. Su He was looking through it, and the people below reported it, and the second lady came over.
The younger sister of the original owner came over early in the morning, and Su He couldn't keep the other party waiting, so he tidied up and went to the next living room.
"Brother." Zhou Yunxiu looked a bit haggard, but when he saw him, he looked happy. "Brother, I made you a cloak. It's cold this year, so you'll definitely need it." Saying this, she asked the maid behind her to wrap The baggage is opened.
The cloak Zhou Yunxiu made was made of weasel fur. What’s rare is that the coat has the same color and smooth hands. It should be a specially selected high-quality fur. Su He’s heart was touched, and he raised his head to meet Zhou Yunxiu’s expectant eyes.
The little girl was five points similar to Zhou Yunze, her facial features were softer, she was charming and charming, and she was wearing a cloak. From his memory, Su He could find that the cloak she was wearing was not newly made this year.
In the past, even if the fur in their hands was not fox fur or mink, it should also be buckskin or lamb skin. This shows the status of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion in the court, and even the status of the direct line in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. . Putting on the cloak she made according to the little girl's wishes, a warm feeling came to my heart. Thinking of such a cute little girl, because of Liu Jingshu's design in the plot, she was sent to the nunnery by Wei Yuan Hou, and she was tortured to death. There was a surge of hostility.
"Xiu'er, do you like the young master of Duke Chang's mansion?" Su He asked suddenly. The smile on Zhou Yunxiu's face disappeared, and her expression was as serious as her age, "Brother, I want to marry him. With this status, mother and you can be more comfortable at home." The confusion and fear made Su He feel clearly.
He didn't say anything, but patted the little girl's head, "Okay, I get it, Xiu'er, brother doesn't need you to sacrifice yourself. Go back and think about it."
Zhou Yunxiu didn't say a word. She was originally a little girl who didn't know how to suffer, but in the past two or three years, she saw her mother being forced by a concubine to no avail, and her brother being slandered and sent away to fend for herself. The father who was supposed to be her protector With the old lady ignoring all these happenings, Zhou Yunxiu slowly grew up from being at a loss in the beginning.
Maybe it's because she has watched too much, and she also has a desire for power in her heart. Who wouldn't want to marry a young man with outstanding appearance? Yes, it's nothing more than wanting to build a relationship.
So even if she knew that the marriage that Aunt Xue had found for her was uneasy and kind, she still wanted to marry, at least when the young master was alive, her mother and brother could live better.
After Zhou Yunxiu left, Su He asked people to send a copy of the man's fur to Mrs. Li and Zhou Yunxiu respectively, and then led them out of the mansion.
