When Mr. Guan and Father Guan went to court, Guan Suyi also woke up early. After washing, he went to the study, and while practicing calligraphy, he waited for Zhao Wangshu to come and greet him. She had a ring of gauze wrapped around her wrist, with lead blocks tied inside. If she took it off and weighed it, it would have weighed four or five pounds. However, she had become accustomed to this kind of penance when she was eleven or twelve years old, so she practiced calligraphy in one hand so powerful that she could see through the back of the paper.
Minglan was amazed by the tsk tsk, and wished she could put the lady's hand on her wrist and write a few back and forth freely and unrestrainedly.
After practicing for about a quarter of an hour, Zhao Wangshu, who should have arrived at the 90th hour, finally arrived late, followed by Zhao Chunxi, who was blowing in the spring breeze. The old mother who guarded the gate of the courtyard hurriedly stepped forward to greet them. She was so obedient that she didn't want money. It seemed that they had already received the news that Ye Jieyu had made makeup for Ye Fan. If you have some doors, you can go to higher places in the future.
Yesterday, it was left to dry for more than half an hour, but today even the floor tiles that have been stepped on have been wiped off. Power and grace are really good things. Thinking like this, Zhao Chunxi became more and more determined to curry favor with her mother, unite with her aunt, win over her family, and suppress Guan's plan.
The two siblings crossed the threshold and saluted in unison, although their faces were respectful, there was a bit of contempt in their eyes. Zhao Wangshu didn't have a palace, so he couldn't hold back his heart. Before his sister could speak, he said triumphantly, "Mother, we won't go to the main courtyard with you today to say goodbye, and the homework at noon and evening will also be waived. This is what Dad said." The words fell and blinked, with an expression of "Come and ask me why".
Guan Suyi didn't know about his little thought, but he still cooperated, "Oh, why is this?"
"My aunt is adding makeup to the third aunt. One of the eight-foot-tall red corals is a treasure of the state of Wei, and it is invaluable. My sister and I were invited to see it. I heard that the third aunt also invited many people to share it. The eldest princess will also attend. She herself said that such a treasure is not even in her princess's house, and the third aunt actually took this treasure from the treasury. The third aunt is very lucky." Zhao Wangshu stretched his arms in the air Swipe, look very proud.
Zhao Chunxi corrected with a chuckle, "Silly brother, where is the blessing of my aunt, it's clearly the grandfather's family that got the honor of the great aunt today. The one who should be most thankful is the great aunt, after all, she is the daughter of our Ye family. , The Fuyin family should have done it. Oh, by the way, the third aunt also posted a post to my mother, I was so happy that I almost forgot, will my mother go with us?" He took out a double-red famous post from his sleeve pocket.
Hearing this, Guan Suyi almost laughed out loud. Unexpectedly, Zhao Chunxi, who was so scheming and so naive in his previous life, misunderstood the irony of others as a compliment, and was proud and boasted everywhere, just to see his jealous and envious expression. But it can't be blamed on her. She doesn't give advice, urging, and guidance like in her previous life. She always teaches by words and deeds. She becomes mediocre, stupid, and narrow-sighted, so it's a matter of course, because her Ye family's family education is like this, just like her She thinks she has a good means, but in fact she is nothing more than a mother who is chasing the bottom line.
"The Ye family is really the most respectable family in the honorable circle, and even the eldest princess is slightly inferior. Well, since your father agreed, let him go. I don't like to join in the fun. A carriage?" Guan Suyi wrote slowly, her expression flat.
Zhao Chunxi and Zhao Wangshu couldn't find the humiliated and frightened expression on her face.
Zhao Luli went to deliver it in person, but he didn't want to follow the children to the main room to take a look and say a few words to himself, afraid that he would be embarrassed and embarrassed by Ye Zhen's agitation and embarrass him? This living bastard, he only knows how to shrink into his shell when he encounters an accident, but he has no responsibility at all. No wonder Ye Zhen wants the red apricot to come out of the wall, but don't hold the pipa.
At this moment, Guan Suyi finally understood Ye Zhen's difficulties, waved her sleeves lightly, and said in a loose tone, "Go, go early and come back early."
The siblings did not answer their promise, turned their heads and ran out, and disappeared at the gate of the courtyard after a while. Several maids and old ladies hurriedly chased after them, and incomparably attentive instructed, "Miss, eldest young master, run slowly, be careful of falling! It's still early now, if it's too late, it's a little later, that's also your grandfather's house, Definitely not to blame."
Minglan slammed the door and spat, "These darn scumbags, whoever has the upper hand, will go after whoever has the upper hand. They have a traitorous face and are extremely filthy! The slave girl guessed that the two brothers and sisters will leave today, and they will come later. They won't come either. Their Ye family has such a good face, and Aunt Ye has Ye Jieyu as her backing. How can she take the young lady in her eyes again? Ye Jieyu is also not clear. Go to the brother-in-law's room, and I'm not afraid of being laughed at."
"Ye's family was just a businessman. Before the founding of the country, he was selling horses on the border. It was not easy to put his daughter in the harem. They couldn't be expected to know how to write the words 'honesty' and 'etiquette'. If I go back, I will always come again, because once I close the family, the Ye family will be unlucky, and the Ye family will be unlucky, the two will come to me with their tails between their tails to make amends, and respectfully call me mother again, sooner or later. Please give me your best wishes." Guan Suyi wrote the words "Propriety, Righteousness, Honesty and Shame" on the paper as she spoke.
Minglan wailed, "Are they coming back? That's so annoying! The eldest young master is okay, but he is a little bit stubborn, a little stupid, and can barely bear it; the eldest young lady is different in appearance and sweet-smelling swordsmanship, and she feels terrified when she sees her. She was always worried that she would be stabbed in the back. She smiled at you for a while and said that you are good or good, but when she went back, she pulled Hou Ye and cried, saying that you are bad or bad. Insidious little girl, I don't know who to learn this trick."
"Probably the origin of family education." Guan Suyi shook her head and sighed.
Just at this moment, the old lady in charge brought a brocade box, saying that it was sent by the lady of the big house of Zhenxi Hou's mansion, and she had to open it in person.
"Bring it here." Guan Suyi sent the rest of the people away, opened the box cover to check, but saw that there were more than a dozen legal books inside, all of which were isolated, absolute, and handwritten copies of famous masters. "The Marquis of Zhenxi is so generous, this is the real treasure of the state of Wei, and it is invaluable!" I also knew that these books could not have been given by Mr. Li, who was illiterate.
Minglan was also a savvy person, and said in surprise, "Miss, this gift is too expensive, will it be hot? Your friendship with Zhenxihou has not reached this level!"
"Even if I burnt a layer of skin off my hand, I also took this gift! He really doesn't have much friendship with me, but it doesn't mean that there is no need for friendship with the Guan family in the future. A potential ally means an extra path, or even an extra life. Although there is no intention of forming a party, he has to plan ahead. Moreover, he is only sending a few books, and he has no other actions. Just accept it, no need Think about it."
Minglan was completely relieved, so she arranged the pen and paper for the lady to write a thank you post, and prepared a valuable return gift to send to the Zhenxi Hou Mansion.
----
When Zhao Chunxi and his younger brother arrived, the Ye Mansion was full of friends, and they were playing the sheng. Occasionally, there were elegantly dressed nobles entering and leaving the room. At first glance, it seemed like a family of hairpins. Ye Ye didn't greet Zhao Luli in person. He thought that he looked down on his status as an idle lord. Liu's family was not cold or warm, but he still cared a little about the two juniors. He called his cousins and cousins of the same age to lead them to the backyard. play.
Zhao Luli stood for a while in embarrassment. Seeing that his father-in-law never came out, he went to the front yard by himself.
After waiting for about three quarters of an hour, the eldest princess arrived late. She waved back Liu Shi and Ye Fan, who were greeted with a flattering smile, and said straight to the point, "This palace will enter the palace later to see the queen mother, so there is no delay, that red coral. What? Bring it out for this palace to see."
The guests also urged again and again, their eyes shining.
Everyone saw that the eldest princess was not good, and they gritted their teeth in anger and could not do anything, so they had to slander in their hearts: "Wait, wait, after the empress gives birth to the dragon heir book, our Ye family will be the one." In Yanjing, there are people with heads and faces. You and the emperor are neither compatriots nor close friends. How can you compare with the Ye family? Now let you be crazy, there will be times when you cry in the future!
While thinking wildly, he led people to the front of the water pavilion, where a huge gold-painted mahogany box had been erected, which was very bright against the sun. Before everyone could see the treasure, they began to murmur and admire its extraordinaryness, and the Liu family, who had slightly extinguished his arrogance, was touted to be arrogant, and just waited for Ye Ye to bring the male guest to open the box to present the treasure, so that this could be called this. The group of people has a long experience and knows the height of the eyebrows.
Zhao Chunxi was frightened by the stern and contemptuous expression of the eldest princess, and faintly felt that she did not intend to befriend the Ye family as rumored, on the contrary, she seemed to be looking for trouble. But so what? She is already married and counted as an outsider, how can she be compared with her mother? My mother is the emperor's wife. They accompany each other day and night, sleep on the same pillow, and will die together in the future. There is no more intimate relationship than this. Otherwise, how could the red coral with only one tree in the country be in the hands of the mother, not the eldest princess, or even the queen mother
Thinking of this, Zhao Chunxi lowered his eyelids and smiled complacently. He looked up when he heard the sound of grandmother opening the lid of the box with the key, and then lost his voice in shock. I saw that the whole body of crystal clear, brightly colored red coral somehow shattered into piles, and when the wind blew, it raised a lot of white dust, making the person standing in front of it coughed.
Liu Shi and Ye Fan screamed in surprise, Ye Ye also shivered and almost fainted.
"Don't go, no one is allowed to go! Hurry up, hurry up and report to the official!" After all, Master Ye was a shrewd and capable businessman, so he quickly recovered and asked the servants to seal the gates of the courtyards to prevent the culprit from escaping. If no one disturbed, the extremely hard coral would not be broken like this! Who dares to destroy even the things bestowed by the royal family, who is so daring
