The queen is tea-smooth and charming, and she wins the house fight by lying down

Chapter 23: Little Brother: You beat me for the pretty boy?
"Miss, Miss..."

Looking at Yue Xianhua who came with gifts, the doorman of the Marquis's Mansion had an awkward and somewhat complicated expression.

He seemed to want to say something, but he hesitated when he thought of the young man in brocade clothes beside Yue Xianhua, and he shrank back a little.

It is said that the young lady's new husband has a violent temper. If I mention Mr. Fu in front of him, what if he gets angry and beats someone up?
If it were in the past, seeing the doorman in such an attitude, Yue Xihua would have sent Xiao Yan away long ago, and then asked in detail what had happened, worried that there was some trouble in the mansion.

But that was in the past.

Who is she now? Why should you care about her?

So Yue Xianhua pretended not to see it and walked towards the mansion with Xiao Yan.

When walking past the screen wall, Xiao Yan suddenly smiled: "The servants in the Marquis' Mansion are also quite interesting."

Yue Xianhua knew that he had discovered it.

But she didn't say anything. She was no longer a member of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion. As for what others would think, it had nothing to do with her.

She will never care about anyone here again.

"Oh my, I've been so busy lately that I almost forgot that today is the day for Sister Nian to come home. Second aunt didn't go to the door to greet her in person, wouldn't Sister Nian and Uncle be angry?"

Mrs. Wu sat in her seat and spoke seemingly in self-blame, but in fact, she didn't even lift her butt when she saw the two people come in.

In fact, let alone welcoming them, if her father-in-law hadn't reminded her yesterday, she would have wanted to go straight back to her parents' home today, leaving Yue Xianhua and his wife empty-handed and embarrassing them.

But because I have been taken care of, I can only endure it.

However, looking at the young couple coming together, with their outstanding looks, even she couldn't help but call them a beautiful couple!
Looking at Yue Xianhua's attire today, her clothes and jewelry are all exquisite and luxurious, and her face is radiant, even better than when she was the eldest daughter of the Marquis's Mansion. It is obvious that she is living a very comfortable life in the Duke's Mansion.

Mrs. Wu could hardly control her sourness and thought bitterly in her heart: Why isn't her sister Yan so lucky?

And the moment Yue Xianhua saw that only her second aunt was in the hall, the last bit of emotion in her heart completely disappeared.

Fortunately, she was mentally prepared when she came, and now she has completely given up.

Her mood was a little low, but the expression on her face became more perfect.

This made Wu unhappy, and she couldn't help but deliberately said, "Seeing that Sister Nian is doing so well, Second Aunt is relieved. You don't know that your grandmother has been thinking about you these days. She cares about you very much."

I said this deliberately because I knew clearly the relationship between Yue Xianhua and the old lady.

Nian Jie'er has been filial since she was young. She knows that her grandmother cares about her, so she will definitely ask to see her. Once she asks, she can refuse and say:

"Your grandmother is not in good health, so your father-in-law ordered that you not to see outsiders... Of course, I didn't mean to say that you are an outsider, sister, so you must not think too much..."

She had even thought about what tone of voice would be the most hurtful and would make Yue Xihua the most upset.

Unexpectedly, even though she was prepared, Yue Huahua refused to accept the challenge.

The girl sat there quietly, as graceful and beautiful as an ink painting, and did not say a word.

Wu waited for a long time, but in the end she could only speak: "Sister, you must go see your grandmother..."

"No need. Grandma is not feeling well and needs to rest. Let's wait until she is better."

Yue Xianhua smiled and looked at the handsome young man beside her: "Don't think too much, my husband. If grandma can see guests, she will send someone to invite them."

Wu: ...

Did you say that?

How can I respond if you say that?

She was so angry that she was about to die. But when she looked up, she saw the young couple looking at each other with a "loving" look. The frustration in her heart instantly turned into a curse that she couldn't say out loud:

"You fickle little bitch, you've already forgotten your ex-fiancé in just a few days..."
-
"Young Master, the eldest lady is back, and the second lady is meeting guests in the hall..."

"what?"

The young man who was lying on the bed crying in pain suddenly heard what the servant said. He jumped up from the bed, put on his shoes and ran out.

The servant was startled and chased after him: "Master, don't run! The doctor said you need to take care of your wounds..."

But Yue Hongyu, who was anxious to see his sister, had no idea what was going on and ran quickly to the front yard.

He was angry and excited.

The pain in his body kept reminding him of what he had gone through in the past few days. That guy Fu Yanyu really beat him to death!

He felt pain, anger, and grievance, with only one thought in his mind:
Tell my sister when you see her! Tell her hard!
Sue Fu Yanyu for beating him, and beating him so hard! Tell me to ignore him in the future, unless he comes to apologize to me in person!
She still blames her sister for not telling him about such a big thing as getting married. Isn’t he her favorite brother?

However, the anger and resentment that had been rising along the way suddenly turned into unspeakable grievance when he stepped into the hall and saw the gentle girl pouring tea for the strange man beside her.

The girl sat there, her posture dignified, still gentle and perfect, but Yue Hongyu felt very aggrieved: "Sister~"

A familiar male voice mixed with grievance suddenly sounded, and everyone who was talking in the hall fell silent.

Yue Xianhua turned around and saw a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old standing at the door, looking at her with resentful and aggrieved eyes:
"Sister, why didn't you tell me you got married?"

After hearing his words and looking at his expression, Yue Xianhua was dazed for a moment.

I seemed to have returned to the past, when the relationship between the siblings was the best.

Yue Hongyu was the child that his mother had difficulty giving birth to. Before that, although his mother and his father were away from home all year round, she would always come back to visit them during the holidays.

However, the birth of this youngest child completely took the mother away.

Not long after that, my father also died from serious injuries in an important battle.

My grandfather lost his eldest son, who had been given great hopes, overnight and instantly looked much older. The entire mansion seemed to have changed overnight.

So everyone hated the child, saying that he was a disaster and had brought bad luck to his parents since birth.

All the sins were blamed on him. His grandparents hated him and were unwilling to raise him, so they just left him to the care of the servants.

The servants in the mansion flattered the weak and neglected the young master because they knew he was not favored.

That time, if she had not happened to pass by the side yard and met the child who had a fever but came out to ask for water to drink and then fainted on the ground, she would not have been able to find a doctor in time to save him.

I'm afraid this brother is no longer alive.

Yue Xianhua knows better than anyone the pain of being without a mother. Although she is the only daughter in the family, she and her mother are rarely together.

But she knew that if her mother were still alive, she would be very sad and upset if she knew that the child she had given birth to at great risk of her life was abused like this.

So despite everyone's disdain and even her grandparents' displeasure, she insisted on taking this little brother with her to take care of him. And when her brother hated him, she also tried to mediate and communicate and reconcile.

She had put in so much effort to get her family to accept her younger brother.

Also, because she was afraid that another evil slave would bully his master, she was in charge of his food, clothing, housing and transportation from childhood to adulthood. Even if she had no time to do it, she would ask the maid to keep an eye on him.

When he was sick, she took care of him without taking off her clothes; when he wanted to recite poems to please his grandparents, she gave him personal guidance; when he made a mistake, she came to deal with the aftermath...

It can be said that although she is Yue Hongyu's sister in name, she actually fulfills all the responsibilities of a mother.

As the eldest sister, she never felt anything was wrong.

In this marquis's mansion, she might be sorry for Yue Xianxian and her grandparents who loved her, but she had never been sorry for Yue Hongyu!
Among the four siblings, she spent the most effort on him, and he was the most dependent on her and listened to her the most.

And precisely because of their care as both a sister and a mother, she never doubted that he would betray her if something happened one day.

However, reality slapped her hard in the face——

The moment Yue Xianxian's biological sister came back, the younger brother whom she had loved since childhood was the first to abandon her and stand on Yue Xianxian's side.

That look was very similar to the way she looked when she was a child, standing firmly beside him despite her family's contempt and misunderstanding.

Yue Hongyu said to her, "Sister Xianxian is already very pitiful living alone outside. Sister, you have been living a life of luxury since childhood, you have taken her status and robbed her relatives, you can't be so selfish. Now she is back, no one likes her. If I, as her younger brother, don't get close to her, she will be sad! So let me go to accompany her, just as a way to atone for your sins!"

To atone for her sins?

What sins can she atone for?

Are these the two people she swapped?

Yue Xianxian is the victim, but Yue Xianhua is not?
He thought he had hidden it well, but he didn't know that she saw the malice in his eyes.

During that time, she was really in pain and kept falling into confused self-doubt. She really couldn't figure out how she had done anything wrong to Yue Hongyu, and why he treated her like that?
I was also sad all night because of him, with tears soaking my pillow.

Yes, Sister Xianxian is very pitiful, she has never enjoyed wealth and glory; then she, who suddenly lost everything, deserves it, right?

As soon as she saw him, all the painful memories from before came flooding back, as if to drag her into the abyss again.

But that was in the past, and she would not feel sad for anyone here anymore.

Yue Xianhua took a deep breath, then looked away, her tone calm but distant and indifferent: "It was the order of the elders and the words of the matchmaker, and I was just obeying. Besides, you were not at home at that time."

Yue Hongyu was not satisfied with her answer and could not help but raise his voice:
"Even if we're not at home, can't you send someone to pass on the message? Or do we, your family, not matter at all to you?"

He was quite fierce and questioned viciously.

But what I didn't say out loud was that I wanted to ask her, didn't she see that he was hurt?
He hurts so much.

Why didn't you ask him how he got hurt and who beat him? Did you not care about him anymore?
But the girl's eyebrows and eyes were still cold, and there was no longer any concern and care in her beautiful eyes: "The wedding date is set very quickly, there is no time to inform."

But the fact is, she was under guard and it was difficult for her to even go out, if Xiao Yan hadn't intervened and robbed her.

Then when they come back, they will hear the news that she lost her virginity and died.

But Yue Huahua would never say these things.

Yue Hongyu was indeed very angry, and he felt that Yue Huahua's words were perfunctory.

He was so angry that he couldn't stop talking: "What do you mean by too late? That's all an excuse! I think you did it on purpose, because you are jealous of our good relationship with Sister Xianxian, so you did this on purpose to irritate us, and deliberately stopped the servants from telling us! You are so selfish that you tortured us with your own marriage, you are too vicious..."

"Snapped--"

A crisp sound of cups smashing was heard, instantly drawing everyone's attention, including Yue Hongyu who was still going crazy.

The handsome young man looked calm, smiling casually even when facing everyone's gaze:
"Sorry, my hand slipped."

Then, without waiting for Yue Huahua to speak, he smiled with a hint of sarcasm: "Sister's marriage is such a big deal, but no one in the family told you. Shouldn't you reflect on why you have such a bad relationship with others? You yelled and acted wildly as soon as you arrived, and you were disrespectful to your elders. Is this how the Marquis' Mansion raises children?"

After he finished speaking the last sentence, he looked straight at Wu, who was watching the show nearby.

Mrs. Wu watched with great interest from the side. How attached was this young master to his eldest sister in the past?
He would talk back to her from time to time, just to protect his beloved sister.

This rare encounter between brother and sister is really interesting to watch.

Xiao Yan's words made the corners of her mouth twitch, and she couldn't help but think, how dare you say that he is disrespectful?
Who knew that before Wu could finish her words, Yue Hongyu exploded: "Who the hell are you? How dare you interrupt me when I'm talking to you?"

Xiao Yan's smile remained unchanged, but his eyes had turned cold.

Just when I was about to teach my brother-in-law how to behave, a familiar and sweet voice rang in my ears:

"Yue Hongyu, he is your brother-in-law, watch your attitude when you speak."

"What brother-in-law? I don't recognize him! My brother-in-law is only Brother Fu!"

Yue Hongyu was so angry that his eyes turned red. He took a few steps towards Yue Huahua and pointed at the wound on his face:

"Do you know? These injuries were caused by Brother Fu! He almost went crazy when he heard that you got married! If I hadn't stopped him that day, he would have strangled Sister Xianxian to death!"

When she suddenly heard that person's name, Yue Hua was in a trance for a moment, but she quickly calmed down:
"Fu Yanyu and I have broken off our engagement. We will each marry someone else and have nothing to do with each other. You don't need to mention him in front of me."

"I was just about to mention it! Yue Hua, how can you be so cruel? No, do you have a heart at all? You don't want someone like Brother Fu, but you choose such a pretty boy? Are you blind?"

Xiao Yan's mouth twitched when he was suddenly called out. If I don't get angry, you think I have a good temper, right?
"Brother-in-law, your brother-in-law..."

Before he could finish his words, the girl next to him suddenly stood up and walked towards the boy.

"Shut up, who is your brother-in-law? Are you worthy? You..."

"Snapped--"

A crisp slap sound instantly calmed the furious boy.

Yue Hongyu widened his eyes and looked at the girl in disbelief.

You hit me? You hit me for him...

"You are right, I am indeed blind."

Yue Huahua said this calmly, then slapped the boy hard on the right cheek with his backhand, causing his face to tilt to the other side:
　Woohoo, the trial launch is over, sisters, please vote for me and give me five-star reviews!
