Exquisite ingenuity

Chapter 56
Fang Sheng came from Changchun.

Zhao Jinyi took apart Fang Sheng and looked at it carefully twice.

Mei Ran waited at the side, watching the faint smile on her girl's lips.

After watching Fang Sheng, Zhao Jinyi threw him into the brazier and burned it as usual.

She lazily raised her feet, half leaned on the beauty's couch, and told Mei Ran: "Pick up some water and wash up briefly, take a rest earlier, and you will wake me up at about ten o'clock tomorrow."

At the right time, it was still dark.

The Zhao family has strict rules, the old man does not need girls to wake up early to greet their elders, the girls of other families may have to get up and dress up to greet their elders at Mao Shi Zheng, but the Zhao family girls have always slept comfortably until Mao Shi.

Meiran responded, and went to tell her mother-in-law to fetch water.

Mei Ran was about to go back to her room when she suddenly saw a person walking in silently from the courtyard door.

She was silent, holding a dim lantern, Mei Ran almost shouted and asked.

But the man said: "The second wife has ordered that if the fourth girl comes back, she will ask the fourth girl to go over."

Listening to this calm tone, needless to say, it was Wuyi.

The second wife sent a message, but Mei Ran didn't dare to delay, so she hurried in and passed the message to the fourth girl.

Zhao Jinyi had heard Wuyi talking a long time ago, she got up lazily, put on her shoes, and raised her hand: "The cloak."

Mei Ran hurriedly waited for the fourth girl to put on her cloak, and then waited for the girl to change back into the lambskin boots.

She told Yaqing to wait for the hot water, while she accompanied the girl and Wuyi to the second wife's Chengde Courtyard.

It was very quiet in Chengde courtyard.

There are not many servants in the second room, except Wuyi is a woman who does rough work.At this time, the mother-in-law had already gone down to rest, and Changle had to wait at the door of the huge yard.

As soon as Zhao Jinyi entered the door, he saw his parents sitting at the top, one on the left and the other on the right, looking at her solemnly.

Her father, Zhao Chengde, has always been kind to her, and he has never shown such an expression.

It seems that her father has been instigated by her mother.

Zhao Jinyi had a charming smile all over his face: "Father! Mother!"

Zhao Chengde couldn't help but wanted to respond to her, but Wu Shi gave a cold snort, and he quickly put away his smile and said seriously, "Do you know your mistake?"

Zhao Jinyi's very well-behaved legs bent, and he knelt on the cold floor: "My daughter knows my mistake."

Uh?When the daughter said to kneel, she knelt down, making Zhao Chengde look at his wife a little at a loss.The beloved wife is still cold and cold, this time, it seems to be for real.

In front of his beloved wife, the majesty cannot be lost.Zhao Chengde coughed: "Since you know your mistakes, don't continue to make mistakes. If you know your mistakes, correct them. You're still a good boy."

Zhao Jinyi lowered his head, looked at the worn-out floor, and said in a soft voice, "Daughter knows she was wrong. She helped Third Sister without the permission of my parents. My daughter is wrong, but she doesn't regret it." .”

This time before Zhao Chengde could speak, Wu became angry: "You are eloquent and eloquent."

Zhao Jinyi raised his head and looked at her aunt with firm eyes: "Aniang, my third sister and I are sisters. I can't just watch my third sister be sent to the fire pit like this, and miss my whole life."

What the daughter said made a lot of sense. The Zhao family should be united and friendly. Zhao Chengde wanted to nod, but he didn't dare to look at his wife again.

His father was afraid of guilt, so Zhao Jinyi didn't look at her father, only at her mother.

A Niang frowned, looking very angry: "You want to help your third sister, but you can't make up your own mind. You took your third sister out and didn't come back for a whole day."

Huh?Zhao Jinyi blinked and looked at her mother.What does Aunt mean?

Seeing her daughter's bewildered expression, Wu's face softened, and her tone was still solemn: "I discussed it with your aunt. Your third uncle did go too far this time. Jin Yun was sent to If you become a concubine, where will the other girls of our Zhao family be placed?"

Huh?Zhao Jinyi's eyes widened.What does Aunt mean?

Wu lowered her eyes and didn't look at her daughter again: "We also inquired, because this matter was done secretly, so no one else could save it."

"This matter, as long as your third uncle knows his mistake, it will be exposed."

Zhao Jinyi looked at her mother, and asked tentatively: "The marriage of the third sister..."

Wu gently stroked the bracelet on her hand: "If you are sure, you can do it. But you can't fight alone, you must tell your parents. However, you are an unmarried girl after all, and the rest If it's a matter, don't stand out and let your third brother Zhao Xiuwen go." After all, Zhao Jinyun is the girl of their third room, although they don't need to use their brains, they have to put in a lot of effort.

This means that what she did has become an aboveboard thing?Third brother, third brother, third brother didn't listen to her!
Zhao Jinyi moved forward a few steps excitedly: "I'll save it, my parents are the most open-minded!"

Wu looked disgusted: "This matter must be done well, don't let people catch the pigtails."

Zhao Jinyi snuggled up to Mrs. Wu with a thick skin: "Auntie is so kind!"

On the way she came, she kept thinking that if Auntie wanted to ground her again, she would definitely argue with reason.

However, what A Niang said is true, the whole Zhao family is prosperous and all are prosperous, and all are damaged.If the girl from the Zhao family was sent to be a concubine in this way, how would the Zhao family gain a foothold in Kanglefang in the future?

With the permission of his parents, Zhao Jinyi happily returned to the room, washed up contentedly, and fell asleep as soon as he lay on the soft pillow.

A day of hard work is exhausting.

After Zhao Jinyi walked for a long time, Mrs. Wu sighed faintly.

Zhao Chengde couldn't hear his beloved wife sigh, and immediately put on a flattering smile on his face: "Tangtang, if you don't want to show off your clothes, then you can lock her up. Your husband will definitely handle this matter properly. "

Mrs. Wu glared at him: "If you want to do it, go and convince your good third brother first."

The root of this disaster is Zhao Chenghuan.

Zhao Chengde was a little embarrassed: "It's not impossible to convince the third brother..."

Mrs. Wu didn't bother to talk to him: "After something like this happened, in the whole Zhao family, only Yi'er stood up for the third girl. Father was right, they lived a very good life on weekdays."

Zhao Chengde was still embarrassed: "The life at home is peaceful, they have never experienced anything... and thinking that the third brother was locked up by his father, and Jin Yun was not sent out, so naturally he thinks the matter is over..."

Wu Shi glared at him again.That's why she was so angry that when Zhao Xiuyuan was young, she wanted to strictly discipline her son, but Zhao Chengde always pestered her and threw him to the nanny.The wet nurse is a servant, so she naturally dotes on the little master, how can she control her?I didn't care about it when I was young, but it was only when I was enlightened that I realized that Zhao Xiuyuan was proficient at playing, but the others were just confused.In the early days, my husband slapped my palms every day, and I cried like ghosts and wolves.It's really embarrassing.

Although the other nephews of the Zhao family were not successful, they still felt ashamed.

Although her Wu family was born in a small family, the teachings of the elders in the family are very strict.It's not like the Zhao family, which is too loose.Speaking of which, my father-in-law was not like this before, and he was also a very disciplined person before.Later, with the passing away of my sister-in-law and mother-in-law, my father-in-law suddenly changed his temperament, and he only cared about gardening flowers and plants all day long, and he didn't care about his grandchildren's affairs at all.

But she can't blame her father-in-law. It is the responsibility of parents to teach children first.Hmph, it's all Zhao Chengde's fault!A sanctimonious fellow!

Not caring about being stared at by his wife, Zhao Chengde blinked: "Tangtang, there is something I need to tell you..." He hasn't told his wife that his father wants to find a son-in-law for Yi'er.

Wu Shi was tired all day, and she was a little tired: "What's the matter?" Now that something big happened, she didn't feel shocked anymore.

Zhao Chengde's voice was extremely low: "Father said that he wants to find a son-in-law for Yi'er..."
