Daughter of a High Sect: Abandoned Concubine Reborn

Chapter 29
But here, Ouyang Luojie looked at the filial piety clothes in Xiaoxia's hand, feeling very uncomfortable.

With a sullen face, she waved the clothes in Xiaoxia's hands to the ground, "I don't wear them, who is she, why should I wear mourning for her, she doesn't deserve it."

Xiaoxia looked puzzled, and said timidly, "Miss, this is the master's order, and the whole house must wear filial piety for the eldest lady."

Ouyang Luojie snorted coldly, "The whole house? What's wrong with father? Does a lowly woman need to make such a grand funeral?" For Ouyang Luojie, Wei Xinyu's status is not as high as that of a girl, her father is Although a merchant has a wealth of wealth, his status is not as high as that of a commoner in this dynasty that stresses the capital and suppresses the end.

Xiaoxia's face was pale, tears rolled in her eyes, but she didn't dare to cry, she endured it forcefully, not knowing what to do.She squatted down, carefully picked up the clothes on the ground and held them in her arms, if she got dirty, she would not be able to explain to the master.

At this time, Zhao Ran'er had already washed and groomed under the care of Mother Zhao.She took the nanny to Ouyang Luojie's room, planning to go to the front hall with her.

But as soon as she entered the door, she saw Xiaoxia holding a filial obedience, looking at a loss, very aggrieved, while Ouyang Luojie was unhappy, pouted, and looked at Xiaoxia's hug in her eyes with hatred. clothes.

She frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"

Seeing Zhao Ran'er, Ouyang Luojie got up and ran to her, and said angrily, "Mother, father asked me to put on filial piety for that woman, so I don't want it??????"

Before she could finish her words, Zhao Ran'er looked at her with a serious expression, she timidly shut up and swallowed back the rest of the words.

Zhao Ran'er looked at her daughter, sighed, and shook her head helplessly.

She took the white filial piety clothes from Xiaoxia, and then ordered, "You all go out first."

Only then did Xiaoxia heave a sigh of relief, and immediately went out with Mother Zhao and the others.

After Xiaoxia and the others went out, Zhao Ran'er looked at her unhappy daughter from the mirror, and said earnestly, "Jie'er, have you forgotten what your mother taught you? If you can't bear it, you will make trouble."

Ouyang Luojie's eyes flickered, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.My mother told herself since I was a child that I should learn to hide my emotions, not to be easily seen through by others all of a sudden, and not to be willful and entangled for a trivial matter.

Zhao Ran'er gently pulled her up, took off the clothes on her body, and changed into the white mourning clothes for her herself.

While dressing her, she said, "Your father and I have placed great expectations on you since you were a child. You must know that you are different from other women. You were destined to be a phoenix from birth. Now that Wei Xinyu is gone, your father is still angry and still suspicious of us. If we disobey him at this time, what do you think he will do? Besides, Wei Xinyu is still your aunt no matter how bad he is. Madam, it stands to reason that it is reasonable for you to wear mourning clothes for her in the eyes of outsiders."

Ouyang Luojie listened to Zhao Ran'er's words, thought about it, and finally understood the pros and cons, but she still said with an aggrieved expression, "But I??????"

Zhao Ran'er held her face, and continued to persuade her patiently, "You have to listen to your mother, don't make your father angry now, you saw how he got angry last night, although he won't really How did you treat us, but have you ever thought about it, now he feels that he is ashamed of Ouyang Feixue, if your behavior makes him disappointed in you, do you think he will give up on you to train Ouyang Feixue? You also know that although Ouyang Feixue's beauty is not as good as yours, her appearance is not bad, not to mention that she has the kind of aura that you don't have, it's just that your father usually ignores her too much and didn't notice it."

Thinking that Ouyang Feixue might replace her in her father's heart, she was still a little scared. She was afraid that what would happen if her father really gave up on her and stopped pampering her.She gritted her teeth, nodded and said, "Mother, Jie'er understands, Jie'er will never be willful again."

Only then did Zhao Ran'er show a slightly relieved smile, and said to Ouyang Luojie, "Come on, mother comb your hair, our Jie'er, even at a funeral, should shine brightly to attract everyone's attention .”

Ouyang Luojie looked in the mirror, showing a confident smile on her face that was still so beautiful without makeup.It was absolutely impossible for Ouyang Feixue to replace her at that time, she would not give her any chance.

In the front hall, most of the guests have already arrived.Ouyang Jinxuan is busy greeting them.

Suddenly, an old voice choked up and shouted, "My daughter, why are you so miserable."

Immediately, the guests in the front hall became quiet and looked at the old man who was talking curiously.

The person who came was Ouyang Feixue's grandfather, Ouyang Jinxuan's father-in-law, Wei Tianzheng, a wealthy businessman in Dajin Imperial City.

Ouyang Jinxuan said a few polite words to the guests in a little embarrassment, and then came to the old man, he nodded slightly, and shouted, "Father-in-law."

Wei Tian was looking at Ouyang Jinxuan, and turned away with a cold snort, but he was already in tears.

Wei Xinyu's mother passed away early, and the family was full of males except herself. Apart from her father, she had two older brothers, the eldest brother Wei Qifang and the second brother Wei Qilin, so she was also held in the hands at home. Afraid of falling in the mouth, afraid of melting in the mouth.Back then, when Ouyang Jinxuan married Wei Xinyu, he swore in front of Wei Tianzheng that he would take good care of her for the rest of his life, and he also promised her two brothers.When she married Zhao Ran'er, people from the Wei family came to make trouble. Thanks to Wei Xinyu's understanding of righteousness, he personally persuaded his father and elder brother not to embarrass Ouyang Jinxuan, saying that it is really not easy for him to be a minister. Only then did the people at home stop.Now that Wei Xinyu went there out of nowhere, I'm afraid that the members of the Wei family won't let it go this time.Now the power of the Wei family in Jincheng cannot be underestimated. Although their family has been in business for generations and their political status is not high, their economic strength is very strong. Most of the silk shops, restaurants, and tea houses in Jincheng belong to the Wei family. However, if the Wei family deliberately made things difficult because of this matter, it might be difficult for the Prime Minister's family.

Ouyang Jinxuan said respectfully, "Father-in-law, the son-in-law is ashamed for not taking good care of Xin'er." As he spoke, his eyes turned red, full of remorse,

Wei Qifang snorted coldly, "Of course you are ashamed. What did you promise back then? Now that my little sister is dead, how can you explain to us?"
