first princess

88 Chapter 2 Turning the tide ([-])
Shui Linglong lowered the curtain.What are you kidding?How could she marry Qing'er to a man who couldn't even support herself!
Not long after Zhuge Xi left, Yao Cheng woke up. When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying in a very strange room. He called Hai Bo to come in. Hai Bo pushed the door open and said with a smile: "Master, You are awake, this is the lady's room."

Yao Cheng glanced sideways at the sky outside the window, frowned, and said, "Where is this place? Why didn't you wake me up so late? After taking a rest for a day, I have to go find Xiaoxi."

Hai Bo was shocked, Eldest Young Master is still not well?
After Yao Cheng was fully dressed, he thought it was so late, he even forgot to eat steamed buns, and ran out quickly. As soon as he went out, he bumped into Mrs. Yao. Seeing that he seemed to be going somewhere in a hurry, he darkened his eyes and said, "Where are you going so late?"

Yao Cheng patted his chest and said, "I'll go find Xiaoxi!"

Useless stuff!Mrs. Yao looked at Hai Bo, and Hai Bo shook his head at him. Mrs. Yao was startled, but forgot?Mrs. Yao held him back: "Is it okay to go tomorrow? Let Hai Bo go with you tomorrow. It's too late today, and Xiaoxi went to bed when you went."

Yao Cheng shook his head: "No, no, I have to go by myself, no one is allowed to follow."

Mrs. Yao was stunned, what if she fainted like last time and no one cares?No, this is not the scariest thing. At worst, she sends someone to watch her secretly. What she is really afraid of is...

"Ma'am! Something happened to Aunt Leng! Go and have a look!" When Mrs. Yao and Yao Cheng were in a stalemate, Mother Lin came over with a serious face.

Mrs. Yao suddenly changed color, who cares about Yao Cheng?He quickly walked to Leng Wei's room.

Leng Wei leaned against the head of the bed, she kept beating her legs.

"Auntie, don't hit me! Be careful!" The servant girl couldn't stand it, the pregnant woman was so excited, what should I do if I lost the child?
Mrs. Yao entered the room and saw Leng Wei beating her legs desperately, she was so frightened that she almost fell down!She ran to Leng Wei's bed in two or three steps, grabbed her hand, and said as softly as possible: "Okay, be obedient, tell mother what's wrong?"

Leng Wei raised her head, wishing to bump her head to death: "I can't feel my legs! It must be Zhuge Xi who hurt me! She knocked me out today, and my legs started to hurt shortly after I woke up! Mom...you have to decide for me! Zhuge Xi is really deceiving people too much! I am pregnant with a child, and she dares to do this to me..."

Mrs. Yao also heard from her servants about this matter. It was clear that Leng Wei deliberately murdered Zhuge Xi's fetus first, and Zhuge Xi's maid stunned Leng Wei to save the master. Sore legs?It must be that Leng Wei knew that Xiaoxi came to visit Yao Cheng in the mansion today, and thought that the two of them would reconcile and she was unwilling!

Thinking of Zhuge Xi's words before leaving, "I really dare not live in your house", Mrs. Yao was furious!It's all because Leng Wei chilled Zhuge Xi's heart, making Zhuge Xi think that Yao's family was not safe and had to go back to the palace to raise a baby. She hasn't settled with Leng Wei yet, but Leng Wei is good, and she will slander Zhuge Xi first!

Mrs. Yao's voice turned cold: "I have been with Xiaoxi for five years, how can I not know how she is? Don't deliberately pretend to be sick just to slander her!"

Leng Wei was so angry that her breath became stagnant: "I pretend to be sick? Do you have a conscience? You come and try this kind of pain and see if I can pretend to be so realistic?"

Mrs. Yao is so angry that she is so angry. Is this the way a daughter-in-law speaks to her elders?
Not long after, Mrs. Yao came over with the support of Mother Fang.Pregnant people are expensive, Mrs. Yao had already gone to bed, and when she heard Leng Wei howling like a pig, she came without saying a word.

"What are you arguing about?" Mrs. Yao asked in a dignified manner without anger.

Mrs. Yao hurriedly got up and bowed to her: "Mother, I'm really sorry for disturbing you so late."

Mrs. Yao's sharp eyes swept across Leng Wei's pale, sweat-stained face, and then she frowned, and said, "What's the matter?"

Mother Lin repeated the conversation between Leng Wei and Mrs. Yao verbatim, and Mrs. Yao's expression became serious after hearing this: "It's absurd! If there is no evidence, who taught you?"

Leng Wei opened her red and swollen eyes in disbelief: "Old Madam, I'm not lying! Besides Zhuge Xi, who else hates me so much?"

"Hate you? Does she hate you, or do you hate her? Who seduced whose husband first? And who first provoked the relationship between who and Yao Cheng? Who did Yao Cheng wake up with today? "A series of questions were thrown out like cannonballs, which made Leng Wei dizzy and shook her head!She beat her leg hard again.

Mrs. Yao hurriedly held her down, and said sharply, "Leng Wei! Why are you crazy? Don't you know that this is not good for the fetus?"

At this juncture, how could she still maintain her sanity?Leng Wei gasped for breath, and glared at Mrs. Yao viciously: "Fetus, the value of my existence, Leng Wei, is to continue the incense of your Yao family. Your Yao family is so selfish! Have you...asked me?" Is it hard or not? Have you ever... cared about whether I am happy every day? No wonder Zhuge Xi would rather reconcile with Yao Cheng than stay in the Yao family. The Yao family is simply the most hypocritical family in the world! Love, but my father-in-law seems to have raised more than two concubines outside! There is also Yao Kui, one Xiaoqing is not enough, even an eight-year-old Queer!"

Mrs. Yao's face turned red and white, and she wished she could find a stinky sock to stuff Leng Wei's mouth!

Feng Yanying got the news and rushed over, just in time to hear Leng Wei's words satirizing the Yao family, her heart ached, did Yao Kui touch Que'er?That little maid, Que'er, who was only eight years old?Feng Yanying pointed at Leng Wei, the panic and anger in her eyes almost tore Leng Wei apart: "You are talking nonsense! How could my husband do such a thing? You haven't even been out of the yard a few times, how come you know the situation of Yao's family like the back of your hand ?”

As soon as these words came out, Leng Wei looked at Xiaoqing behind Feng Yanying and smiled maliciously.

Feng Yanying followed Leng Wei's gaze and turned her head, just in time to see Xiaoqing winking at Leng Wei, signaling to Leng Wei not to drag her into it!
Leng Wei was so uncomfortable that she could not wait for everyone to suffer with her!
"Xiaoqing! What did you do without telling me?" Feng Yanying yelled, and Mrs. Yao also looked at Xiaoqing. Xiaoqing's scalp was numb with fright, and she hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look directly at her masters. What happened?It was nothing more than the Second Young Mistress who sent Zhige and Tong Geer to Mrs. Yao's yard, and she occupied the Second Young Master all night long. She was so angry that she deliberately seduced her, but the Second Young Master didn't seem to have much interest in her. So she dressed Que'er and sent it to the second young master's study, but she never mentioned this kind of thing to others, how did Leng Wei know?
Mrs. Yao was so angry that her eyes were full of gold stars. Yao Yu was an official of the imperial court. Although his official position was not high, but because his surname was Yao, he was considered a respectable figure in the capital. !Today's Yao family really can't stand the turmoil!Who is Leng Wei?She and the Yao family are not on the same page, can she hear such words?

"Damn it! It's really abominable! I allowed you to follow Yao Fu because I saw you being honest and hard-working. It's good for you to stir up those crooked thoughts! You even fanned me around!" Mrs. Yao yelled at the door, "Drag Xiaoqing to me, and beat him to death with a stick!"

Xiaoqing fell to her knees on the ground with a thump: "Forgive me! I don't have Da Madam! I really didn't tell Aunt Leng about this!"

Mother Lin stepped forward to gag her, and carried her out with two rough servants. When she met Que'er, whom she had recommended as a second-class maid, at the gate of the courtyard, Que'er raised the corners of her lips at her...

Mrs. Yao invited Zhang Yuan in the palace to give Leng Wei a diagnosis and treatment overnight. Zhang Yuan gave her a careful diagnosis and said that she would not be able to go to the ground for a short time, but her life was not in danger.

After leaving Leng Wei's yard, Mrs. Yao asked Mrs. Yao: "Mother, do you think this is man-made? If so, who did it? We have to give the Leng family an explanation."

There was an indistinguishable undercurrent in Mrs. Yao's eyes, as if two dark clouds had collided suddenly, and that wave of light was as sharp and sharp as lightning: "Xiao Xi can't tolerate Leng Wei."

Mrs. Yao was dumbfounded.

"This is Xiaoxi's attitude, and she may not be the one who did it." Mrs. Yao sighed faintly as if she was tired: "At the beginning, we forced Xiaoxi away because of the child in Leng Wei's womb, but now Xiaoxi is very aggressive. It may be the culprit, and we have to give up Leng Wei who is also pregnant for the piece of meat in Xiaoxi's belly!"

How cruel, he slapped Yao's family hard!Let the Yao family shoot themselves in the foot!
Mrs. Yao pressed her eyebrows and chose one of the two pregnant women, and she naturally chose Xiaoxi as well.Mrs. Yao blessed her body and said: "My daughter-in-law knows what to do."

Not long after Shui Linglong's carriage left Yao's house, Anping came on horseback. Anping stopped beside Shui Linglong's carriage. He got off the horse and bowed to the curtain: "Miss, the slave is Anping!"

Shui Linglong opened the curtain and looked at him: "Did you leave the capital with your son?"

Anping clasped his fists and replied: "My lord asked the slave to stay and wait for the eldest miss. If the eldest miss needs it, she can send a trusted maid to the mansion to find the slave. The slave has already greeted the guards at the gate." The reason why Yao Cheng Fainted at the gate of the palace and no one cared about it because some people would have misunderstood the meaning of the son, thinking that the son hated Yao Cheng to the bone and wished Yao Cheng to die. Therefore, one of the guards pretended to help Yao Cheng pass the truth and went back to his room and fell asleep. Dajue, Miss Zhuge killed that guard last night.But for the sake of caution, he still specifically instructed the guards that if someone came to the Shangshu Mansion, they must notify him as soon as possible.

Shui Linglong's long eyelashes trembled, and the corners of her lips slightly curled up: "Where did your son go?"

Anping was surprised, didn't the eldest miss ask the Shizi about it?He was startled, and said: "I went to Yancheng, and I will go once every spring."

Yancheng, the city at the junction of Dazhou and Nanyue.

In her previous life, she and Qing'er were trapped in a ruined temple on the border of Yancheng.

Also died in a spring.

Shui Linglong collected her thoughts, smiled as usual and said, "What is he going to Yancheng for?"

Anping hesitated for a moment, but still replied: "Wait for someone."

It is "waiting for someone", not "looking for someone", so Zhuge Yu has not waited for him, who is the person who has been waiting for him every year?
Shui Linglong felt a little irritable in her heart suddenly, after saying goodbye to Anping, she read the story book in her hands, and after turning a few pages, she felt that the story was really boring!So she changed a script, but she was still not interested, so she threw the script away and leaned on the soft pillow with frowning.

Liu Lu and Zhi Fan looked at each other, not understanding what happened to the eldest lady.

Liu Lu picked up a plate of ghee pretzels and smiled obsequiously, "Miss, eat a piece of pastry."

Shui Linglong picked up a piece and took a bite, but it was tasteless, she threw the pastry on the plate and closed her eyes.

Liu Lu was stunned. In the morning, the eldest lady also said that this new flavor of pretzels was delicious, and she planned to ask Mama Du to make more.

Seeing that Liu Lu's flattery failed, Zhi Fan felt happy, and handed over a cup of newly released Yin Yun tea: "Missy has been tired all day, drink some tea to moisten her throat."

Shui Linglong opened her eyes and looked at the teacup in Zhifan's hand, but couldn't arouse any interest: "Go to Baolinxuan instead, I'll buy some jewelry."

The two servant girls were stunned, and Liu Lu reminded: "Miss, you just bought 300 taels of jewelry a few days ago, and you didn't wear any of them."

Shui Linglong rubbed her eyes, as if she finally remembered such a thing: "That's it, then go back home."

Zhi Fan looked at Shui Linglong suspiciously, why did she feel that the eldest lady was a little absent-minded?

In Qingya Courtyard, Zhuge Xi was sitting on a chair with her slender jade feet soaking in the wooden tub. Yao Cheng was squatting down to press her slightly sore heels from walking too much today.

When Yao Cheng saw her, he repeated what he said this morning, begging her to forgive him, and taking her away, and settling in Kashgar...

He didn't remember that she had visited him, and he didn't remember that she was pregnant. When she told her that she was pregnant, he lifted up her clothes and kissed her belly like in the morning.

After asking Hai Bo carefully, he found out that Yao Cheng has been unable to create new memories since April No.18.

Zhuge Xi thought about it carefully and carefully, and the scene of Leng Yixuan playing tricks to make her happy suddenly appeared in her mind, and in order to get rid of Yao Cheng, she pretended to laugh happily with Leng Yixuan for a long time.

Was he afraid that she would marry Leng Yixuan?
Yao Cheng chuckled, and after pressing Zhuge Xi's feet, he was sweating profusely. Zhuge Xi took out his handkerchief and wiped his forehead and cheeks. The smile on Yao Cheng's face became brighter and brighter: "Xiao Xi, you Are you more comfortable?"

Zhuge Xi nodded, his eyes were soft but also complicated: "It's much more comfortable, take a break."

Yao Cheng took a towel and wiped Zhuge Xi's feet, then sat on the opposite chair, put Zhuge Xi's leg on his, and stroked it gently.

Zhuge Xi asked Yao Cheng: "Are you sure you will live in the palace from now on?"

Yao Cheng replied without hesitation: "I will be where you are. But..." Yao Cheng's eyes darkened, and he said, "From now on, I will no longer be an official, just a commoner, and it seems that I am even more unworthy of you. gone."

Zhuge Xi stretched out his arms towards Yao Cheng, Yao Cheng understood, and hugged her on his lap, Zhuge Xi leaned on his chest, and said softly: "If you want to be an official, we Kashgar mostly want to be an official, and we don't want to be an official. How about we open a small restaurant like Linglong?"

Yao Cheng kissed her forehead, blaming himself a bit: "I've wronged you, besides, I have such a disease." Others told him that he would not believe it, but he never doubted Xiaoxi's words, and he never doubted Xiaoxi's words. He can't remember what happened every day, every day when he wakes up, he will repeat the actions and words of the previous day. After a long time, will Xiao Xi bother him?

Zhuge Xi raised the corners of his lips: "I thought of a way, you can use notes to write down the important things that happened today, you can always recognize your notes, so that when you wake up the next day, you will understand when you see these notes. How should life go on."

The brilliance in Yao Cheng's eyes reunited: "Okay, I will do as you say!"

From then on, Zhuge Xi felt a little pain in her heart because she had to live on notes. She lifted Yao Cheng's face, and gently kissed his dry lips: "Yao Cheng, I want you."

Mrs. Yao was sitting in a dark room with no lights on. Mother Lin opened the curtain and walked slowly to her side, as if she was afraid of disturbing her, her footsteps and voice were very soft: "Mrs., the young master sent Hai Bo There is news that he will live in the palace from now on."

Mrs. Yao closed her eyes abruptly, raised her head and flinched. What she was worried about happened. Zhuge Xi was forced to leave, and her son was also forced to leave...

Mrs. Yao grabbed the skirt of her chest and burst into tears: "What did the old lady say?"

Mother Lin said in a low voice: "The old matriarch said to follow the young master first, maybe staying with the young mistress can improve the young master's condition, and also, the young master's official position... The old matriarch asked the young master to resign .”

Mrs. Yao raised her head and took a deep breath: "Is Leng Wei's matter settled?"

Mother Lin said: "It's done, and there are trustworthy people around. Even a fly can't fly in."

Back at Lingxiang Courtyard, Mother Zhong hurriedly welcomed Shui Linglong in: "Miss, have you had your dinner yet?"

Shui Linglong shook her head: "No."

Mother Zhong frowned, didn't she go to the palace?Zensheng let the lady come back hungry?Mother Zhong said distressedly: "The meal in the public house has already been eaten, and the maidservant will make it in the small kitchen if Miss wants to eat."

"Have a bowl of plain noodles." No appetite.

Mama Zhong frowned and said, "How did this happen? Miss is in the middle of her body, so eat more nutritious food. How about three fresh noodles?"

Mother Zhong is different after all, she is a wet nurse, she has the grace of nurturing, Shui Linglong has always respected her, although she is not very happy this time, she still nodded.

Mother Zhong happily went to the small kitchen, feeling that cooking for her "daughter" was a very happy thing.

It was said to be three fresh noodles, but when it was actually served, there were several more delicate side dishes: roasted radish, braised chicken with mushrooms, cold donkey meat, and dry-stir-fried potato shreds.
