Marry the first wife

Chapter 33 Not a concubine

Faced with doubts, Miss Zhou uncharacteristically laughed, slowly approached Fu Yao's body, and said softly: "Miss Fu has always been a smart person. You need to know that cleverness can lead to mistakes."

As soon as these words came out, Fu Yao raised her brows and curled her lips. She couldn't help but think of what happened to Miss Zhou.

At that time, Miss Zhou was not as sarcastic and kind as she is now. She was well-known for her good temper in the circle of noble ladies. However, all this happened since the Minister of Works came to the house. Everything about the cousin girl has changed.

At that time, Miss Zhou, just like herself now, brought out her cousin who was staying at home to introduce her to the noble ladies and get acquainted with her.

It's a pity that people are still greedy after all. Her cousin was not as innocent, kind and cowardly as she imagined, and she ended up becoming her aunt.

Fu Yao didn't know the reason for this. Because of this, Miss Zhou was ridiculed by the ladies' circle, which made her unable to hold her head up all day long.

Realizing that the person in front of her was trembling unconsciously, she didn't even think about it. She must be recalling the past. What's more, Ms. Zhou has suffered a lot from her cousin and aunt in recent years, and she is the only one who suffers the consequences. clear.

Miss Zhou's eyes were red and she was so angry that she just left it alone. Now she saw these weak and helpless cousins ​​and was very annoyed.

Fu Yao nodded and saluted, turned her eyes, and thought for a moment before saying, "Thank you, Miss Zhou, for reminding me. I understand your kindness and will definitely not repeat the same mistake as before.

There is just one thing. Miss Zhou must not do it again in the future. Not everyone can appreciate your kindness like me. "

His thoughts are good, but his words are not so pleasant to the ears, and he may cause some trouble.

Thinking about it, he was so angry that his eyes turned red.

Miss Zhou from the Minister of Industry's family snorted coldly and glanced at Zhou Chuyao with disgust. Having the same last name as her was really disgusting, "It's good that you know."

After that, he shook his sleeves and turned to leave.

This scene fell in Fu Yao's eyes. She was helpless. She raised her hand to help the frightened Zhou Chuyao up, and softly comforted: "Sister Chuyao, please don't be angry. Miss Zhou today..."

"I know Miss Zhou made an honest mistake." Zhou Chuyao came back to her senses, delicately interrupted what the person in front of her was going to say next, took Fu Yao's hands, and said with a smile: "This is just an insignificant matter. , isn’t it?”

Fu Yao's eyes flashed with surprise and she smiled, "That should be the case."

She is not the original Miss Zhou, and she will not follow in her footsteps knowing that she cannot do anything. I will not offend others unless they offend me.

Zhou Chuyao's eyes darkened, and everyone's joking eyes were on her back, so what could she do?General Jingyuan's Mansion would not stand up for an insignificant person, let alone confront his daughter's family in public with the Minister of Industry's family.

He glanced sideways slightly, looking at Miss Zhou's retreating back, and slowly clenched his hands.

After Fu Yu arrived, the people gathered here had dispersed. Only the two of them stayed where they were. They looked at them with disgust and said, "Useless things can make others bully you." superior."

These words were obviously directed at Fu Yao.

Her body stiffened, Fu Yao walked slowly to Fu Yu's side, and deliberately lowered her voice, "Second sister, this is not General Jingyuan's mansion, it's better to calm down the trouble."

"Huh." Fu Yu stood there and glanced at Fu Yao lightly, but it was just this glance, and the contempt in it was self-evident.

Fu Yao still smiled and said nothing.

The girls who came one after another thought that what Miss Zhou did was indeed very disdainful, but they also expressed disdain for Fu Yao's cowardice.As expected, Fu Yao was punished again when she returned home.

There was still a gloomy memorial tablet, and there was still a person kneeling alone in the ancestral hall to repent, but her heart was calm, as if she couldn't feel any fluctuations, and was empty and lonely.

'hi~'

With tears in her eyes, and tears swirling in her eyes, Fu Yao endured the pain in her legs and limped toward Anheyuan.

Guyu walked, followed, carefully supported the girl, and said distressedly: "Girl, why are you doing this? What happened today clearly has nothing to do with you?"

Fu Yao waved her hand and said with a wry smile: "Gu Yu, you don't understand."

Regardless of whether this matter has anything to do with her or not, whether she caused the trouble or not, these are not important. What matters is that she is here, in the Chengenhou Mansion.

This is a mistake.

As the eldest girl in General Jingyuan's residence, she failed to protect her sisters. This was her second mistake.

With just these two items, Mrs. Xie could definitely punish her severely. So what if it was indiscriminate, and what if it was confusing right and wrong?
As long as she stayed in General Jingyuan's residence, Mrs. Xie, as stepmother, had enough control over her marriage affairs.

"Gu Yu, I don't want to be a concubine." Fu Yao looked forward blankly with a pale face and spoke clearly every word.

"What, girl?" Gu Yu looked at his girl in confusion. The girl's voice just now was so soft that she didn't hear clearly.

Fu Yao shook her head slightly, raised her hand and said, "Nothing, just help me go back."

As the legitimate daughter of General Jingyuan's Mansion, her status is indeed sufficient, but after all, she does not have a strong mother clan, so a woman with no support is undoubtedly the most suitable 'gift'.

It was freezing cold, and Fu Yao knelt on the biting stone slab for a long time. In addition, her body had not fully recovered in the past few days, and her whole body was as hot as a furnace in the middle of the night.

Guyu changed basin after basin of water, but it was not of much use.

The sides of Fu Yao's cheeks were flushed, and large beads of sweat appeared on her plump and smooth forehead. She murmured: "Mother, mother..."

It wasn't until midnight that the scalding temperature gradually subsided.

Guyu touched the elder girl's forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. He counted the few coins in his hand and showed infinite sorrow on his face.

This girl misses the deceased general's wife. Although she has never met the deceased general's wife, seeing that the young lady misses her so much, she must be a very good mother.

Gu Yu has been an orphan since he was a child, and was sold to the General Jingyuan Mansion by a gangster. He is not as good as those slaves born at home, but he is also the most loyal person.

Afraid that the girl's body would get hot in the middle of the night, Gu Yu stayed in front of the bed so that Fu Yao could summon her at any time.

A few raindrops fell outside the window, and within a moment, the dark clouds turned into large raindrops hitting the window, and the sound of wind continued until dawn.

Shen Zhaoxian, who was on the side of the wall, looked at the brightly lit courtyard next door, his heart tightening again and again.
