When Yu Siyu left the main courtyard, seeing no one around, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled heartily.
"What are you happy about?" A very familiar voice came from behind suddenly, and she looked back, only to see Yu Xiang wearing a goose-yellow dress with scattered flowers and clouds, sitting in a cluster of winter jasmine flowers, shrouded in golden sunlight. On her body, her bright eyes and bright teeth make her more delicate than a flower.
It's a pity that he is a lame man, so what's the use of being beautiful? Yu Siyu taunted maliciously, wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, and said slowly, "The old ancestor has promised to marry me to Fang's family, and he will come to help me negotiate marriage in January. I am naturally happy. Is it my grandmother?" , I still feel sorry for my granddaughter at the critical moment." The two words 'pro' deliberately emphasized the tone.
After hearing this, Yu Xiang didn't have the surprise and jealousy she imagined, she only squinted her eyes and thought for a moment, then chuckled.
Yu Siyu asked angrily, "What are you laughing at? Don't believe me?"
"No, no, of course I believe it." Yu Xiang stopped laughing, raised her hand and made a bow, "Then I will congratulate my sister in advance, and you can take care of yourself in the future."
How could the old lady come up with such a bad move? Marry the snobbish Yu Siyu to the down-and-out Fang Zhichen, whose future has been ruined and his wealth confiscated? This time I'm afraid I'm really angry.
Yu Siyu was very dissatisfied with her reaction, as if she had punched the cotton with a fist, the feeling of weightlessness was very uncomfortable. She pursed her lips and said sarcastically, "Thank you sister, you have to take care of yourself in the future. Sister Fu'er will get rid of her clothes next month, and she must marry in soon. I heard that you had a dispute with her in the Taoist temple. Having trouble with her brother? Then what will you do after she takes over the Yu Mansion? Don't look at your brother protecting you now, but when he has a wife and children, he won't care about you anymore. You really think you can stay in Yufu for the rest of your life. Yu Mansion? Why don't you quickly find a small house and move out, so as not to offend your elder brother and sister-in-law."
Thinking of the scene where Yu Xiang was kicked out, Yu Siyu was overjoyed, covering her mouth and laughing.
Yu Xiang was holding a winter jasmine flower in her hand. After hearing this, she unconsciously crushed it, and the flower juice slowly leaked out between her fingers, staining her sleeves. She secretly took a deep breath, took the embroidered handkerchief from Liu Lu, wiped her palm slowly, and said with a smile, "Don't worry about it, sister. Doesn't sister know yet? Chang Yafu's marriage with brother may not be possible. Brother sent a message In other words, she said that she would never even think about stepping into the Hou's mansion in her life."
"How come?" Yu Siyu's eyes showed astonishment. My brother is already twenty now, wouldn't it be another year or two to delay his marriage with the Duke of Yasukuni? How could the ancestors agree
Yu Xiang didn't say much, and beckoned Tao Hong Liu Lu to push herself back.
Yu Siyu cursed at her back, and then left angrily. As soon as she stepped into the small courtyard, she saw that Qiu Shi was making people take Qing Ya away. Qing Ya was beaten to the point of dying and unconscious, so the two old women crossed each other, half dragging and half dragging by.
The marriage was finally settled, Yu Siyu didn't dare to make a fuss, she quickly dodged aside, and didn't dare to say anything to stop her. After everyone had left, she went back to the house in a frivolous footsteps, lying on the soft couch by the window, gasping for breath, from last night's despair Until this morning's ecstasy, she was really exhausted under the ups and downs of emotions.
The heart disease was gone, she took a nap for a while, and after getting up, she was thinking about something else, so she called Qiu Shi into the room for questioning, "Yu Xiang said that the marriage between elder brother and sister Fu'er will not be completed, do you know about this?" Among the servants in the courtyard, only Qiu's news is the most well-informed. Yu Siyu usually doesn't use her, but she will always think of her when it comes to this time. Although she wanted to drive this person away, she suffered from lack of ability. Not to mention the Qiu family alone, even the servants of the entire Hou Mansion only listen to Yu Xiang's orders.
Yu Xiang's head is very strict, and all kinds of rules are listed out for the servants to memorize, the first one is not to bully the master. Although she doesn't like Yu Siyu, she has never treated him harshly, and she does not allow others to treat him harshly, so Yu Siyu's life is considered nourishing, but she is not satisfied.
Qiu's task is to keep a close eye on Yu Siyu, not to let her do stupid things to drag the Marquis's mansion, and serve her as she should when she is by, and does not dare to violate Yu Xiang's taboo, so she truthfully reported, "I know a little about this. Son, it should be true."
"Why? If you have a good marriage, you can quit. Sister Fu'er is nineteen this year. How can she live after retiring?" Yu Siyu suddenly felt a feeling of being connected with the disease.
"She asked for it herself. She even instigated her younger brother to pour caterpillars on Miss Xiang'er's head, which caused scorching all over Miss Xiang'er's body. At that time, Master Hou was so angry that he ordered Long Linwei to find a basket of snakes and dump them on the ground. Her younger brother scares people to death. Ms. Xiang'er coughs and Master Hou feels distressed. How can an outsider bully her. This Miss Chang's family is so insane before she has even entered the house, really If we marry in, wouldn't we have to grind Miss Xiang'er to death? Master Hou will never agree."
While talking, Qiu shook her head, secretly lamenting that Chang Yafu was also a fool, knowing that Miss Xiang'er was Lord Hou's favorite, she still wanted to provoke her, and just put her good marriage into it for no reason.
Yu Siyu was so jealous when she heard this, she complained in a crying voice, "What's so good about that bastard, how can it be as good as me? I'm the elder brother's own sister, why does he only love that bastard and not me? The same goes for my ancestors. I'm so old and confused, I can't even tell the difference between the inside and the outside..."
Seeing her crying while talking, Mrs. Qiu didn't have the patience to comfort her, so she shook her head and lifted the curtain to go out, thinking to herself: You have been thinking all day long to make things difficult for Miss Xiang'er and frame her. Although Miss Xiang'er swears venomously, when has she ever treated you badly? If she reveals a sentence or two of revenge, you may not even be able to eat a full meal. The one who only knows how to make a fool of himself, making the house restless; the one who started to help the old lady manage the house at a young age, and help the Hou Ye share his worries, whoever is good and who has a discerning eye will be watching, but you don't have that self-knowledge. . The relationship between people is based on each other. If you don't treat others well, why should others treat you well
Yu Siyu got her wish, but Fang Zhichen stayed up all night. Seeing Mrs. Pei come back, she urged her to pack her things and leave the Hou's mansion quickly. Mrs. Pei told him about the premature birth of the princess and the auspiciousness from heaven, etc., but he didn't have the patience to listen.
"Son, why are you leaving in such a hurry? But what happened? Look at your face, it's very bad." Pei asked worriedly.
"Mother, don't ask any questions, just leave now." Fang Zhichen didn't have the face to talk about what happened last night, his eyes were red with anxiety. He had never been humiliated like this when he grew up, and for a moment he felt completely hopeless. Thinking back when he was still in Yangzhou, he didn't attract envious and reverent eyes wherever he went, how come he didn't even have the qualification to carry shoes for people when he came to the capital? After all, he is the Tanhua Lang hand-picked by the Holy Majesty, the Tan Hua Lang who is admired by countless ladies! Who she, Yu Xiang, thought she was, was just a useless person!
After thinking about it deeply, all her admiration for Yu Xiang turned into resentment.
Pei Shi became more and more worried, so she grabbed him and questioned him for a long time, until Fang Zhichen almost burst into tears, he stammered and told Yu Xiang about Yu Siyu's capture at the night meeting.
Pei was very anxious, and scolded, "Son, you are so confused! She told you to go and you went? Why don't you think about it, this is the capital, this is the Yu Mansion, not our old house, the backyard kind Where is the place you can go! What should we do now? I’m afraid your marriage with Second Miss Yu will fail! No, I have to hurry up and make amends to the old lady!" He said while searching for valuable gifts in the cage.
"If it doesn't work, I don't want to marry her."
"My eldest lady, Qing Yu, who else can you marry now? This matter is your fault after all, and the old matriarch has to be comforted and appeased. If you don't get married, you will end up with an enemy." Pei found out a set of values. Liancheng's emerald face was wrapped in a brocade box.
"I don't know people, I don't know my heart, I really don't dare to take any of the two ladies of the Hou Mansion." Fang Zhichen couldn't hold back his grievances, and complained, "Mother, the Second Miss Yu actually said that I even gave her money." He is not worthy of carrying shoes. Mother, my son feels bad!"
"What? She really said that?" The son is Pei's Nilin, and he couldn't tolerate others saying that he was wrong, so he slapped the table and scolded, "What a little bastard, I really don't know the heights of heaven and earth. She is just a useless person, if it weren't for her Look at the…”
"What are you looking at? Eat my Hou's house and live in my Hou's house, and still scold my Hou's house. My Hou's house can't afford a big Buddha like Mrs. Fang, so please leave quickly." Mama Ma took a few children The girl came in and said bluntly, "Please point out which things are yours. The girls will help you pack them up and carry them out. The carriage has already stopped outside the corner gate. Don't waste everyone's time."
"No, I want to see the old matriarch!" Mrs. Pei was in a hurry, because Gein received a letter from Master Fang a few days ago, saying that he would marry the daughter of the Yu family back, and it would be best if she was a prostitute. Everyone in the Han Dynasty knew that Yu Xiang sacrificed her life to save her brother. Yu Pinyan's unprincipled doting on her was no longer news. Marrying Yu Xiang was tantamount to pinching Yu Pinyan's weakness.
Who is Yu Pinyan? Those who are ordered to kill are all commanding envoys, and their power is even higher than that of the third division, and they only obey the orders of the emperor. With his help, it is equivalent to growing a few more heads. Don't say that Yu Xiang is just unable to walk, even if her whole body is paralyzed, she has to be carried into the door.
Mrs. Pei knew very well that if she didn't complete the errands assigned by her husband this time, she would definitely die when she returned home, and would rush to the main courtyard after pushing away Mama Mama and a few maids.
When Yu Pinyan came back from the court, he saw a group of people clamoring around a pile of cages. Mrs. Pei was grabbed by the sleeves of Mama Mama and pushed straight to the corner door. .
"What's the matter?" Yu Pinyan looked at the porter.
Such scandals as the boudoir night party were suppressed by Yu Xiang, so the concierge naturally had no way of knowing, shaking his head and said, "Go back to Lord Marquis, I don't know. I must have offended the old lady."
Yu Pinyan nodded, turned around and was about to go to the west chamber, but he heard Mrs. Pei let go of her voice and shouted, "My son went to the second lady's boudoir to have a private meeting with her last night. You don't want me to see the old lady, so I will make such a scandal Spread the word and see who has no face!" Didn't Yu Xiang say that my son is not even worthy of carrying her shoes? Then ruin her reputation and see who dares to marry her! At that time, the old lady will not have to cry and beg me!
Yu Pinyan stopped, turned around and walked towards the group of people. With a push of his thumb, he pushed the scabbard of the Xiuchun knife in his hand, and the gleaming blade made a buzzing sound.
The buzzing sound was very subtle, but to everyone's ears it sounded like a thunderbolt, deafening, not to mention the cold murderous intent pervading his body that froze the surrounding air.
Pei Shi fell silent instantly, and looked at him with a terrified expression.
