Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife
Chapter 74
Chapter 74
Ever since Su Yan said "she has to marry him if we meet ten times a month", Yun Chuwei has become a Tmall in her yard, thinking that as long as she survives this month, the so-called boring agreement will be void Bar?She and him can go their separate ways and have nothing to do with each other from now on, right?
Yun Chuwei is a person who can't be idle, and when he is free, he just wants to find something to do, so he asked the sweeping maid for a flower hoe, and she squatted in the flower garden to loosen the soil for the flowers and trees.
Meizi rushed in from the courtyard door excitedly, out of breath.
Seeing Yun Chuwei, he said angrily, "You girl, why are you still acting recklessly now?"
Having said that, there was no trace of reproach in her tone. Meizi has been with her for so many years, and she has long been like a sister. She knows exactly what kind of temper Meizi has. If there is no important matter, she can't be so impatient.
"Girl, something went wrong." Meizi gasped for a while before she could say a complete sentence.
Yun Chu frowned slightly, but his face remained calm, "What's wrong?"
"It's the fifth girl." Mei Zi said: "The fifth girl was called to Hefeng Garden by the eldest lady, and the maids and women were all dismissed by the eldest lady. No one knew what happened, only heard that the eldest lady was very angry, as if... It seemed that she was scolding the fifth girl, and the third wife was angry and crying, and in the end she had nothing to do, and happened to bump into me again, so she pulled me and refused to let go, and desperately asked the girl to come forward to intercede."
Yun Chu pondered slightly, "What exactly did Yun Qilan do?"
Mei Zi shook her head in puzzlement, "I don't know either."
Yun Chu moved his eyelids lazily, then continued to bend down to loosen the soil, and said in a low voice, "Isn't Yun Jingshu the best at doing things like being a peacemaker? What did Third Aunt think? Come to me suddenly, doesn't she know that my own daughter is the most speechless in front of the eldest wife?"
Meizi murmured: "Girl, the third girl has locked herself in the house for many days because she was named to marry into the Su family, and no one has seen her. She can't protect herself now, so how can she care about other people's affairs?" Son?"
"That's true, Yun Jingshu's marriage to the Su family is a certainty." Yun Chu nodded slightly in agreement, "It's no wonder that the eldest wife is so angry, it turns out that she found a reason for the anger that has been suffocating in her heart these days. Qilan sprinkled on her body, that girl is also very unlucky, it just so happened that someone caught her at such a time."
"Isn't that right?" Mei Zi said: "If you want this servant to tell you, it's also because the fifth girl has no winks. Can't she see that the eldest wife is on fire because the third girl is going to marry into the Su family, and she still has to catch up It's a bad thing, and now I'm scolded, and I can't blame anyone."
Yun Chu turned his head slightly, and looked at Mei Zi with a funny face, "You also know that she deserves it?"
Meizi scratched her head, with a charming expression, "Slaves don't dare to talk about master."
Yun Chu smiled and said, "Okay, I don't know what your poisonous mouth is in front of me, go out and tell the third wife, just say that your girl is busy with self-cultivation, and I don't have time to talk to anyone .”
"Oh, that's right." Meizi just took a step forward, when Yun Chuwei called her again, "Tell her again, people don't die for themselves."
Mei Zi was a little embarrassed, "Won't Miss's words make people think that we are ungrateful?"
"When have we ever been affectionate and righteous?" Yun Chu sneered slightly, "Also, my silly girl, listen carefully, 'people don't kill themselves for their own sake' means that if a person doesn't know how to constantly improve his cultivation , then it will be tolerated by the heavens and the earth, not the selfish explanation in your mouth."
Meizi suddenly realized, her eyes lit up, "Miss wants the servant to tell the third wife that Miss Wu's self-cultivation is not enough, so she deserves to be caught and punished, and no one can save her?"
"Well, yes, your comprehension is getting better and better." Yun Chu raised his eyebrows slightly and gave her a thumbs up.
Mei Zi smiled shyly, "The servant girl will go out and tell the story."
"Well, let's go!"
-
Meizi walked out of the courtyard, and the third wife Ding was standing not far away, looking at her anxiously.
Seeing Meizi, she immediately trotted over and asked hurriedly, "What's the matter, Miss Wei, would you like to help?"
Mei Zi shook her head regretfully, "Third Wife, our girl said that people will not be destroyed for themselves, and the girl can't help with this matter."
Ding immediately understood the true meaning of this sentence, his face turned pale for a moment, and his expression was a little dull.
"Third wife?"
Mei Zi hurriedly called out: "Don't expect my girl to come forward about this matter, it's not like you don't know that my girl can't even speak in front of the eldest wife."
Ding came to her senses and shook her head, "I don't blame her, it's because I was in the heat of the moment and didn't think carefully before I rushed to disturb you, Meizi, please remember to say sorry to Miss Wei for me later."
Mei Zi froze for a moment, then nodded, "Oh, yes, I will definitely bring the words to you."
-
Lotus Wind Garden.
With a cold face, Fan's eyes swept across Yun Qilan's body, and then sternly shouted, "Kneel down!"
"Auntie, Qilan doesn't know what she did wrong."
Yun Qilan bit her lower lip, tears streaming down her face.
It was the first time for her to be yelled at by Fan's.
The servants in the house had been sent away by Fan's family long ago, and all the maids and women knew that the eldest wife was not in a good mood these two days, so no one dared to say anything else, and ran away immediately.
Fan took out a letter that had been torn apart from his sleeve, slapped it heavily on the table, and said bitterly: "I have been in charge of the family for so many years, and I treat the girls in each house as if they were my own. I tried my best to find the best nuns for you, and I hope that all of you can become successful, and when you leave the gate of Dongyang Marquis Mansion, no matter what your family background is, you can be looked up to.
But I didn't expect your eyelids to be so shallow, and you wrote a letter with a foreigner privately before you left the cabinet. Thanks to my people, this letter was intercepted, otherwise it would go directly to the old lady. Think about it, you can Can there be good fruit to eat? "
Yun Qilan was so frightened that she trembled all over, with an expression of disbelief, "Auntie, I didn't write to anyone privately, I was wronged!"
The veins on Fan's forehead were throbbing, he grabbed the letter paper, crumpled it into a ball and threw it over.
Yun Qilan bent down tremblingly, picked it up and opened it.
This letter was written by Huang Zeyu. In the letter, he said that Huang Shoufu arranged for him a quiet place for him to study quietly. The place is far away from the capital, and he will leave in three days. Before leaving, Want to see her again and ask her when she can arrange time.
After reading it, Yun Qilan knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face, "Auntie, I was wronged."
She never passed a letter to Huang Zeyu, nor promised Huang Zeyu anything, why did that person want to kill her?
"Written in black and white, you told me you were wronged?" Fan sneered, "Yun Qilan, it seems that you have forgotten all the training I have given you these years. As a daughter, you are virtuous and dignified. Dufang is the way of dealing with people, but you are fine, you are only a few years old and you can't bear the temper to have an affair with a foreign man, right?"
Yun Qilan cried out, "Auntie, I really don't know why someone wrote to me, I don't know him!"
Up to now, she can only deny it to death.
After today, she must find out what's going on!
"How do I teach you on weekdays? Born in the Marquis of Dongyang, you are noble girls, and noble girls should have the restraint and elegance of noble girls. When it's time for you to hold them, you will take out your lady's Come on, when it's time for you to speak, you will try to spit out how much ink you have in your stomach. If you want people to think highly of you, you must not slack off on these two things. These are all I often warn you in your ears, but how do you do it?"
"I……"
"Let me ask you, where did you go with sister Yao the day sister Wei came back, and who did you meet?"
Fan originally didn't want to mention this matter, but Huang Zeyu dared to blatantly pass the letter to the inner courtyard of Dongyang Marquis Mansion. If she didn't care about it, once it was spread, outsiders would only laugh at her, the head in charge of Zhongfu. Mrs. Fang has no way to teach her daughter.
When asked by Fan, Yun Qilan immediately panicked and shook her head desperately, "No, I don't."
"Someone saw it with their own eyes, and you still dare to argue?" Fan's eyes became a little colder.
Yun Qilan thought of Qiu Xia's threats to her in the Su Mansion that day, she trembled with fright, her lips trembled, and she stammered, "It's... it's Fourth Sister's cousin."
Sure enough, it seems that what Qiu Xia said that day was not lying. Sister Lan and Sister Yao did go to see Huang Zeyu in private.
Two ladies who have been trained in etiquette just went to meet the foreigner without any scruples!
Fan was very angry, and quickly stretched out his hands to support his head.
"Auntie, I know I was wrong." Yun Qilan cried out of breath, "I shouldn't have listened to Fourth Sister, I shouldn't have believed her..."
Fan raised his head, "Tell me well, how did you know Huang Zeyu?"
The matter has come to this point, how could Yun Qilan dare to hide anything, she said in all sincerity: "My father is a concubine, my aunt knows about it."
Fan raised his eyebrows.
"Compared with the third and fourth sisters, my background is quite different. Because of this, I am often suppressed by the fourth sister. I have no room for resistance. She told me that as long as I obey her obediently , she chose an excellent husband-in-law for me from her grandfather’s house, and she blamed me for having shallow eyelids at the time, so I mistrusted her words for a while, until..." Biting her lips, she continued, "Until the day sister Wei came back, four My sister took me to the back garden to meet Mr. Huang."
She didn't say what she regretted later, even though her status was not high, Yun Qilan's self-esteem was extremely strong, she was afraid that Fan's family would make fun of her and make herself ashamed.
"When you see Huang Zeyu, do you regret it?"
Yun Qilan didn't say anything, but Fan answered the words for her.
Yun Qilan froze all over.
"Your little thoughtfulness, you can't hide it from me." Fan said: "Although I was not with your girl's house on the day of the Su family banquet, I still heard a lot. You dressed like that, isn't it? In order to show your face in front of the wife of the aristocratic family?"
Yun Qilan was speechless to refute.
"As a woman, who doesn't want to marry a good man?" Fan's tone slowed down, "I can understand your thoughts, but your way of doing things not only hurts the wife of the aristocratic family, but also greatly reduces your status. The temperament and quality that a woman should have, the banquet is indeed a good opportunity to show her face, but it is also an important occasion to test a person's speech and behavior. When you should not show your face, you interrupt indiscriminately. But you can see everything in your eyes, see you next time, who will rarely talk to you?"
Yun Qilan clenched her fingers tightly, her bowels almost turned green with regret.
Auntie is right, she did make a lot of mistakes because she was in a hurry to show off during the banquet in Su's house, but those who can go to the banquet in Su's house are people of high status, so they naturally wouldn't laugh at her on the face of it, Secretly poking her spine, she really lost a lot of face at the banquet that day.
"I will find a way to suppress the private letter." Fan said, "Since you have done something wrong, you will be punished, but you are a third-party person. If I punish you severely, you will not let me go. If people say that I am avenging myself, then I will ban you for a month, and during this month, I will let the foster mother come to watch you every day, and copy the etiquette and discipline she taught you."
Fan's punishment like this was considered fair. Yun Qilan had nothing to say, she stood up slowly, and wiped her tears, "Thank you, auntie, for your generosity."
"Go down!" Fan waved his hands wearily.
Yun Qilan bowed and retreated, but there was secretly hatred in her heart.
She had only met Huang Zeyu once, even if that person had extraordinary abilities, it was impossible for him to pass the letter directly to the inner courtyard of Dongyang Hou's mansion so quickly and calmly.
Then the only explanation is that Yun Xueyao is the matchmaker.
As soon as she thought of this, Yun Qilan immediately gritted her teeth, quickened her pace, and quickly went to Yun Xueyao's yard.
The weather was hot, Yun Xueyao was enjoying the coolness under the flower trellis, and two little maids were gently fanning cattail fans.
One of the maids spotted Yun Qilan wandering by the courtyard gate, and whispered to Yun Xueyao: "Miss Four, Miss Fifth is outside, it seems that she is here to look for you."
Yun Xueyao straightened up, and sure enough, she saw that the person outside was Yun Qilan, she raised her voice, "Since when did Fifth Sister learn not to enter Fourth Sister's courtyard?"
Yun Qilan was still hesitating at first whether she should go in directly to ask Yun Xueyao to understand, but now that she was called, she felt embarrassed, so she simply stopped thinking and walked in.
Yun Xueyao looked at her with a half-smile, "Tsk, look at Fifth Younger Sister's tear-stained face, I feel pity for it, who made you sad?"
Yun Qilan remembered the words that Fan's had taught her before, and immediately became angry, staring at Yun Xueyao without letting go, "Let me ask you, does that letter from Huang Zeyu have anything to do with you? "
Yun Xueyao smiled, "I don't understand what Fifth Sister is saying."
Yun Qilan was so exasperated that she almost gritted her teeth, "If you hadn't been able to bridge it, how could that kind of letter have reached the inner courtyard?"
A bit of sarcasm appeared in Yun Xueyao's eyebrows, "I heard people say that the fifth sister was called to Hefengyuan by her aunt earlier, and was scolded very badly. Could it be because of this?"
Yun Qilan clenched her fists tightly, her face flushed red with anger.
"You have a lot of courage to write letters with outsiders."
Yun Qilan's eyes were red, and she didn't dare to say a word that she was about to scold Yun Xueyao.
In the final analysis, she is just a daughter of a concubine, and her grandfather's family has no reliable background. Compared with someone like Yun Xueyao who has a first-assistant grandfather, she is not a star and a half behind.
After choking up a few times, she gritted her teeth and ran back to her yard with her skirt in hand.
Yun Xueyao looked at the back of her fleeing in a panic, and a look of ruthlessness flashed across her eyes.
The letter captured by Fan today, although it is true that Huang Zeyu is going to study far away, is not actually written by Huang Zeyu himself. Huang Zeyu is a literati, no matter how rude he is It is impossible to pass the letter directly to the inner courtyard of the boudoir.
That letter was written by Yun Xueyao imitating Huang Zeyu's handwriting to punish Yun Qilan, a little bitch.
At the beginning, she was warned to be obedient, but who knew that this little hoof was not greedy enough, let the first assistant's grandson not want it, but went to the Su family banquet to embarrass her, and didn't show her some color, Yun Xueyao still couldn't swallow this breath .
Yun Qilan, who didn't know the truth, was extremely wronged. She had just returned to the courtyard of the third room and was about to enter the room to cry, when the third wife Ding's cold voice came from behind, "Kneel down!"
I just knelt in front of the eldest wife for a long time before, but now when I came back, instead of being comforted by my mother, I yelled at her like this as soon as I met her, all the grievances in Yun Qilan's heart welled up all at once, tears fell down like hell, "mother--"
"I told you to kneel down, didn't you hear?" Ding's attitude was obviously tougher and colder than Fan's, Yun Qilan trembled when she heard it, but she still didn't kneel.
Gritting her teeth with tears in her eyes, Ding's heart was ruthless, and she slapped Yun Qilan's delicate face with her palm.
Yun Qilan was stunned. It was the first time her mother treated her so coldly at such an age, and even hit her for the first time.
This time, she dared not kneel down.
Yun Qilan cried and said, "Mother, my daughter knows she's wrong."
"You are not wrong, you are stupid!"
Ding's face was frosty and icy, and he was obviously very angry with his own daughter who was not good enough.
"How did I teach you before that the family status of our third room is not as high as that of the eldest room and the second room. If you want people to look up to you, you have to work hard on self-cultivation. Now it's doing well, just because of your stupidity. , all fell short!
I have reminded you in those years that Yun Xueyao is not a good quarrel, she usually treats you sincerely because she has a chief assistant and maternal ancestor who dares not to look down on even the head of the house?If you don't listen, it's sticking up like psoriasis, and it feels good to be beaten up by her this time?
Also, on the day of the Flower Appreciation Banquet in the Su Mansion, you were quite ashamed at the banquet, right?At that time, did Yun Xueyao stand up and say a word to smooth things over for you?She is afraid that she would be happy if you would become the laughing stock of the entire capital from now on! "
Pointing at Yun Qilan, Ding's voice contained hatred, "Pig brains, pig brains, they think they are pretty and clever, so their tails go up to the sky. Thanks to your aunt intercepting today's letter, otherwise If it falls into the hands of the old lady, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold your head up in the future."
Yun Qilan broke down in tears, "Mother, I really realized my mistake, from now on I will never associate with Fourth Sister again, I swear."
If he had known that Yun Xueyao would treat her like this, he would not be coerced by her to collude with her even if he killed her.
Ding's fingers were clenched tightly, his knuckles turned white, showing that he was very angry.
She didn't know about today's incident at first, but when she came back from Yun Chuwei's Xiangzhang Pavilion, she overheard the conversation between Yun Xueyao and the two maidservants, and then it dawned on her that her daughter was caught by this arrogant The fourth girl gave the design a serious sway.
She hates, of course she hates, but no matter how much she hates, she can only bury it in her heart. When she sees the person in the second room, she still has to talk with a smiling face.
Rich families are most particular about saving face.
Private grievances, no one will put it on the surface.
So in such an aristocratic family's back house, it's perfectly normal for me to offer you one today, and tomorrow you poke my back in the back.
After swallowing her anger for so many years, Ding was finally forced by this thoughtless daughter to show her temper.
"What does the eldest lady say?" Ding stroked her chest to comfort herself.
Fan's family is well managed, and she is not a big-mouthed person. She has always treated the third house girl fairly, and she will never expose such a shameful matter to the old lady.
Yun Qilan sobbed and said authentically: "Auntie punished me for a month and copied all the etiquette and discipline taught me by the foster nun."
Ding's heart was hard to calm down, and he said directly: "The punishment is light!"
Yun Qilan looked at her in disbelief, "Mother, my aunt said to find a way to suppress this matter and spare me this time, why are you still..."
Ding gritted her teeth angrily, "When will you really grow your brain? No matter how violent the eldest wife is, and how much she can suppress this matter, you can be sure that there will be no news of it reaching the old lady. In the ear? Don't forget, the second bedroom is still waiting to see the joke. Instead of letting people catch their mistakes and laugh at them, it's better to punish yourself first. Maybe the old lady can see this for the sake of your sincere repentance. Let’s not mention the matter.”
As soon as she heard that it might reach the old lady's ears, Yun Qilan panicked, "Mother, you have to find a way to save me, as long as you don't anger the old lady, even if I'm fined for another month of grounding, I'm willing." of."
The old lady is the head of the Dongyang Hou Mansion, and all the marriages of her grandchildren have to be approved by her. Once she is completely disappointed in herself because of this matter, then one can imagine the hardships she will have in the future.
Yun Qilan was terrified.
No, she absolutely does not allow herself to lose without a fight, let alone Yun Xueyao, who designed everything today, to sit on the sidelines.
As long as her mother finds a way to protect her this time, she must have a way to get back everything Yun Xueyao owed her!
"It's not that there is no way, but I have to wrong you for a while." Ding said quietly.
Now that things are going on, Yun Qilan can't control whether she is wronged or not, as long as she can keep the little image of herself in the old lady's mind, she can do anything.
Ding said: "In a short while, you will go to the old lady and invite yourself to go to Yingmei Temple to meditate for two months."
Yun Qilan thought of countless ways, but she never expected that her mother would let her go to a nunnery to cultivate.
How could she bear it for two months?
Ding's eyes sharpened, "Why, you can't let go of the rich clothes and fine food of the Hou Mansion at this moment, so you don't want to go?"
"No, mother, I didn't mean that, I just..."
Ding interrupted her all of a sudden, "Okay! This matter is settled like this, and there is no room for discussion. If you have a little brain, you should understand that I have put a lot of thought into letting you go to the nunnery."
Yun Qilan's heart skipped a beat.
Ding said: "Your second cousin is leading the cultivation in Yingmei An, and the reason why she is today is inseparable from your second aunt and Yun Xueyao. Do you think she is willing to stay in that kind of place for the rest of her life? ?"
Yun Qilan's eyes lit up, "Mother means, I went to Yingmei Temple, and I can take this opportunity to tell the second sister about the evil deeds of the fourth sister to me intentionally or unintentionally. She can't take revenge herself, but she can take advantage of it My hand avenged her, didn't I?"
Ding glanced at her with satisfaction, "Although your second cousin is a concubine, she is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She has a much better brain than you. If she knows that you have a common enemy, she will definitely fight against you , tell you all the schemes she has planned in the nunnery over the years, you just need to stay there with peace of mind, and after two months, I will arrange for someone to bring you back. At that time, I hope to see you Re-install your brain, otherwise, if you don't improve a little bit, even the god Da Luo descends to earth, and can't save you."
Yun Qilan stood up and embraced Ding Shi happily, "I knew that only my mother is the best for me."
Mrs. Ding patted her on the back lightly, "It's good that you know that in the back house of a wealthy family like ours, all the sisterhood is fake. You treated Yun Xueyao as your real sister all those years ago, but you don't know that in people's hearts, you Worse than the beggars she met on the way. When she sees a beggar, she will show her face and give him some money. For you, she only has sneering and sarcasm, and you will learn a lot of wisdom, mother. I hope you will come back after going to Yingmei Temple, so that you can really see these things clearly, so that you won't be fooled easily in the future."
Yun Qilan choked with sobs and nodded, "Thank you mother, I have written everything down."
The mother and daughter chatted for a while longer before Yun Qilan left for Qinfang Garden.
The old lady just woke up from her afternoon nap and was sitting and drinking tea.
When Yun Qilan entered the door, she caught a glimpse of Fan's and Yun Xueyao's presence, and she felt a chill in her heart.
I was still late, presumably Yun Xueyao had already applied eye drops in front of the old lady.
Thinking of this, Yun Qilan trembled all over.
"Fifth girl." The old lady had sharp eyes, seeing that something was wrong with her, and frowned, "What's wrong with you?"
With a sneer on the corner of Yun Xueyao's mouth, she looked at Yun Qilan, pretending to be concerned and said: "Yo, fifth sister knelt hard in the lotus garden of the eldest aunt this morning, and she hasn't recovered yet Come?"
Fan's face darkened.
Yun Qilan pursed her lips and secretly clenched her fists.
The old lady frowned even deeper, and looked at Fan, "Did the fifth girl make a mistake?"
In my impression, this eldest daughter-in-law has a rare good temper, and she doesn't easily punish others physically. Why did she think of punishing the fifth girl to kneel today?
Yun Qilan panicked in her heart, she was afraid that Mrs. Fan would reveal the matter of that letter.
Although Yun Qilan was sure that the letter had nothing to do with her, but it was written in black and white, and her boudoir name was written on it, once the old lady saw it, she would not be able to speak clearly even if she had ten mouths to speak.
Faced with this situation, Fan's was not in a hurry, "Sister Lan made a few mistakes at the Su family banquet that day, and after I came back, I was busy with other things, so I put it aside. Er just remembered, so someone sent her to lecture, and made her kneel down and think about it."
Old Mrs. Yun let out a "hmm", apparently believing Fan's words, Yun Qilan gave her the impression that she was a petty girl who wanted to climb up, but she didn't have that ability herself, what kind of Su family banquet was that? High-end, gathered more than half of the capital's famous wives, and according to Yun Qilan's temperament, she must want to show off in front of those wives, but in the end, painting a tiger is not an anti-dog, which made people laugh.
Old Mrs. Yun was very dissatisfied with Yun Qilan's behavior, but Fan had already punished her physically, and she had already given a lecture. If she punished her again, it would make people feel cruel, so she just lowered her eyes and looked at her, "Do you know where I am wrong? gone?"
Yun Qilan nodded, "Grandmother, eldest aunt, Qilan knows it's wrong."
Yun Xueyao wanted to expose this matter when she saw Fan's few words, she immediately became unhappy and opened her mouth to speak, how could Yun Qilan give her this opportunity, she knelt down heavily with a "plop" On the ground, Old Madam Yun kowtowed three times, "Thanks to Grandma and Auntie who never gave up and taught Qilan so hard, but Qilan's eyes were shallow, and she lost face of the Hou Mansion at the Su family banquet, Qilan felt guilty." , knowing that she has no face to face her grandmother and eldest aunt, so Qilan invited her to go to the nunnery to practice for two months."
Yun Xueyao was startled.
what!Yun Qilan invited her to practice in a nunnery?What is this little hoof thinking?
Yun Xueyao didn't think that with Yun Qilan's mind, she could come up with this method of retreating into advance, it must be the idea of her pure-looking mother who actually has a world inside.
Thinking of this, Yun Xueyao bit her lips bitterly, seeing the old lady's moved face, her heart was obviously warmed up by Yun Qilan's actions, now, if she tells about that letter again, It seems narrow-minded. The old lady hates the intrigue between the three families the most. Once she speaks out, not only will she not please her, but she will also lose her impression in front of the old lady.
According to the old lady's thinking, family ugliness should not be publicized. As Yun Qilan's cousin, since she knew about this kind of thing, she should find a way to hide the past and prevent the servants from gossiping, instead of coming to Qinfang Garden to beat the children. Report.
Although Yun Xueyao was arrogant in normal times, she still had some brains. Knowing that Yun Qilan had won this round, she stopped chasing after her and said a few hypocritical and sweet words with a smile on her face.
Yun Qilan was able to think of putting the family's reputation first, and of going to a clean place to improve her self-cultivation. The old lady was naturally overjoyed. help up.
"The fifth girl has finally grown up, and she knows that she has considered for the family." Mrs. Yun said with relief, "It's rare for you to have such a pious heart. Is there any reason why I won't allow it?"
After Yun Qilan heard this, she felt happy, "Thank you, grandma, for making it happen."
Fan asked: "And I don't know where Sister Lan is going to go to the nunnery?"
Yun Qilan glanced at Yun Xueyao with a half-smile, and said slowly, "Yingmei Temple."
As soon as the words fell, a crack was torn on Yun Xueyao's face pretending to be happy, with a hideous and ugly expression.
Yingmei Temple, that is where her second sister Yun Xirong took her hair to practice.
Yun Qilan clearly knew that she had a quarrel with Yun Xirong in the early years, and she chose Yingmei Temple specially, it must be premeditated!
Yun Qilan deeply felt Yun Xueyao's venomous gaze cast on her, and she smiled triumphantly in her heart.
Yun Xueyao, you will also have a day of fear?
Since Yun Xirong is your nemesis, then I will definitely use it without hesitation. When I come back after two months, I will give you an unexpected surprise!
After getting the old lady's nod, Yun Qilan started packing her things after retreating. She agreed to go to the nunnery to meditate. .
This matter quickly spread around the house.
When Yun Chuwei received the news, she was making hair oil by herself, using boiling water steam to smoke out the essence of jasmine flower soaked in sake, but the essence that came out at this time was not pure, and there was a thin layer of hair underneath. Distilled water, in order to separate the water from the essential oils, she found a hollow straw to gently suck out the water.
"I heard that Miss Wu invited her to the nunnery to meditate for two months!"
Meizi was still gossiping happily.
After a slight shock, Yun Chu took a big mouthful of distilled water into his mouth.
Meizi was shocked, and hurried over and patted Yun Chuwei on the back to make her spit it out, and handed her some tea to rinse her mouth.
After cleaning his mouth, Yun Chu gave her a slight look, "I said, can you finish your sentence at once? It's immoral to whet people's appetite."
Mei Zi stuck out her tongue resentfully, "Where did the servant expect that the girl would have such a big reaction?"
Yun Chu snorted slightly, "It's not my fault that I reacted too much, but based on my understanding of Yun Qilan, she didn't have the brains to think of retreating as an advance, so she avoided everyone in the Hou's residence and hid for two months. If this matter subsides, it will win the favor of the old lady, killing two birds with one stone."
Mei Zi realized later, "That's right, how could Miss Wu have such a temperament, how could she go to Hefeng Garden and kneel down and then suddenly grow brains?"
Yun Chuwei continued to make her fragrance, and said in a low voice, "It seems that we predicted well, the water in the Hou's mansion is deep, no one will be a fuel-efficient lamp."
Even Sanfang's wife, Ding, who seems to have no opinions, is not a simple person.
Yun Chuwei could guess with just a little brainstorming that this matter must be planned by Ding's behind the scenes. As for why Yun Qilan was sent to Yingmei Temple, it probably has something to do with the second girl Yun Xirong who led the cultivation practice.
The second girl, Yun Xirong, and the eldest girl, Yun Xirui, are sisters of the same mother, and they come from Aunt Lin, the second roommate.
According to the gossip that Yun Chuwei heard from the little maids, the second master Yunji is a lustful person, and before he married a serious wife, he let the maid of the first room conceive, so the eldest daughter and the second daughter of the second room were both pregnant. It's a concubine, this incident made outsiders see a lot of jokes, the second wife Huang shi had quarreled with the second master about this matter many times in the few years when she first married, the second master was frightened by the natal family behind Huang's back, So I tried every means to keep those two girls away, so there was a saying that the eldest girl, Yun Xirui, married to Dengzhou far away, and the second girl, Yun Xirong, went to Yingmei Temple to lead her practice.
Yun Xirong's "seeing through the world" at a young age is all the masterpiece of the second wife Huang and her precious daughter Yun Xueyao.
Ding asked Yun Qilan to stay in Yingmei Temple for two months, it seems that there will be a good show in the near future.
Of the three houses in the Hou Mansion, the backyard of the long house is the quietest. Yun Chong guards the frontier all the year round, and rarely goes home, so there is only his wife, Fan, and other than that, there are no other concubines.
The masters of the second and third bedrooms have concubines, and the struggle between wives and concubines never stops.
Thinking of this, Yun Chuwei couldn't help smiling, as expected of her own father, not only was he an upright person, but he also had a cleanliness habit that didn't allow other women to interfere in his marriage.
-
On the day Yun Qilan left, Mrs. Ding personally went to see her off outside the corner gate and gave her many instructions.
Yun Qilan wrote down one by one, put down the curtain of the carriage and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Yun Xueyao's sharp voice suddenly came from behind the corner door.
Ding's face collapsed, knowing that this person came in a bad way, he quickly gave Yun Qilan a wink as she lifted the curtain again.
Yun Qilan recalled, looking at Yun Xueyao with a smile on her face, "Is Fourth Sister also here to see me off?"
Yun Xueyao glanced casually at Ding, "Third Aunt, I have something to say to Fifth Sister alone, can you avoid it?"
Ding replied with a straight smile, "Then you two sisters talk, I'll go back right away, Sister Lan, be careful all the way."
"Mother, I will." Yun Qilan looked away from Ding's back, and looked at Yun Xueyao again, "Fourth sister, if you have anything to say, hurry up, I'm in a hurry."
Yun Xueyao was a bit reconciled, and approached the carriage with a warning look in her eyes, "Yun Qilan, don't think that I don't know what you plan to go to Yingmei Temple, I warn you, you'd better So give me some peace of mind, don't have any crooked thoughts, otherwise I will never forgive you."
Yun Qilan sneered in her heart, when will you spare me?
But he said in his mouth: "Although I don't quite understand what the fourth sister said, I am still very happy that you can come to see me off. Fourth sister's dark circles are a bit heavy. Is it because I didn't sleep well last night? I won’t be able to see anyone for a while, so you’d better go back and sleep in the cage, um, I’m leaving now, Fourth Sister, see you in two months.”
For the word "goodbye", Yun Qilan deliberately lengthened the ending sound, which has a deep meaning.
Yun Xueyao was shocked.
It was precisely because she was worried that Yun Qilan and Yun Xirong would get mixed up that she couldn't sleep last night. She kept thinking about countermeasures, but after thinking about it all night, she still had no idea. After all, Yun Xirong went to Yingmei Temple so For many years, she didn't know anything about her, and now she made up her mind on the spur of the moment, how could she think of a perfect solution so quickly?
No, we must not let this little bitch like Yun Qilan succeed, I'm afraid I have to go back and beg my mother to ask people from my grandfather's house to help me with this matter.
-
After seeing off Yun Qilan, the house in the Hou Mansion was much quieter. After lunch that day, Yun Chuwei took Meizi for a walk in the garden. Not far away, a little maid suddenly walked by, walking in a hurry, and seemed to be in a hurry. , she went too fast and accidentally fell down on the cobblestone path.
Yun Chuwei gave Meizi a wink, and Meizi immediately went over to help the little girl, a small bamboo tube for letter paper fell out of her body, and Meizi quietly picked up the bamboo tube and hid it in her sleeve while she was not paying attention.
After the little maid stood firm, she thanked her a thousand times and ran away.
The master and the servant returned to Xiangzhang Pavilion. Meizi carefully took out the small bamboo tube hidden in the sleeve. Yun Chuwei took it and opened it. After seeing the words and signature on it, he was a little surprised at first, and then frowned slightly. Picking up, he smiled coldly, "It seems that there will be another good show soon."
Chapter 59 I accidentally made a mistake about a detail. The eldest daughter Yun Xirui and the second daughter Yun Xirong of the Hou Mansion were born to the second wife, Aunt Lin, and have nothing to do with the eldest house. Master Hou only has a woman from the Fan family. Chapter mentioned, I went to look through the character settings, only to find out that I made a mistake, embarrassing.
(End of this chapter)
Ever since Su Yan said "she has to marry him if we meet ten times a month", Yun Chuwei has become a Tmall in her yard, thinking that as long as she survives this month, the so-called boring agreement will be void Bar?She and him can go their separate ways and have nothing to do with each other from now on, right?
Yun Chuwei is a person who can't be idle, and when he is free, he just wants to find something to do, so he asked the sweeping maid for a flower hoe, and she squatted in the flower garden to loosen the soil for the flowers and trees.
Meizi rushed in from the courtyard door excitedly, out of breath.
Seeing Yun Chuwei, he said angrily, "You girl, why are you still acting recklessly now?"
Having said that, there was no trace of reproach in her tone. Meizi has been with her for so many years, and she has long been like a sister. She knows exactly what kind of temper Meizi has. If there is no important matter, she can't be so impatient.
"Girl, something went wrong." Meizi gasped for a while before she could say a complete sentence.
Yun Chu frowned slightly, but his face remained calm, "What's wrong?"
"It's the fifth girl." Mei Zi said: "The fifth girl was called to Hefeng Garden by the eldest lady, and the maids and women were all dismissed by the eldest lady. No one knew what happened, only heard that the eldest lady was very angry, as if... It seemed that she was scolding the fifth girl, and the third wife was angry and crying, and in the end she had nothing to do, and happened to bump into me again, so she pulled me and refused to let go, and desperately asked the girl to come forward to intercede."
Yun Chu pondered slightly, "What exactly did Yun Qilan do?"
Mei Zi shook her head in puzzlement, "I don't know either."
Yun Chu moved his eyelids lazily, then continued to bend down to loosen the soil, and said in a low voice, "Isn't Yun Jingshu the best at doing things like being a peacemaker? What did Third Aunt think? Come to me suddenly, doesn't she know that my own daughter is the most speechless in front of the eldest wife?"
Meizi murmured: "Girl, the third girl has locked herself in the house for many days because she was named to marry into the Su family, and no one has seen her. She can't protect herself now, so how can she care about other people's affairs?" Son?"
"That's true, Yun Jingshu's marriage to the Su family is a certainty." Yun Chu nodded slightly in agreement, "It's no wonder that the eldest wife is so angry, it turns out that she found a reason for the anger that has been suffocating in her heart these days. Qilan sprinkled on her body, that girl is also very unlucky, it just so happened that someone caught her at such a time."
"Isn't that right?" Mei Zi said: "If you want this servant to tell you, it's also because the fifth girl has no winks. Can't she see that the eldest wife is on fire because the third girl is going to marry into the Su family, and she still has to catch up It's a bad thing, and now I'm scolded, and I can't blame anyone."
Yun Chu turned his head slightly, and looked at Mei Zi with a funny face, "You also know that she deserves it?"
Meizi scratched her head, with a charming expression, "Slaves don't dare to talk about master."
Yun Chu smiled and said, "Okay, I don't know what your poisonous mouth is in front of me, go out and tell the third wife, just say that your girl is busy with self-cultivation, and I don't have time to talk to anyone .”
"Oh, that's right." Meizi just took a step forward, when Yun Chuwei called her again, "Tell her again, people don't die for themselves."
Mei Zi was a little embarrassed, "Won't Miss's words make people think that we are ungrateful?"
"When have we ever been affectionate and righteous?" Yun Chu sneered slightly, "Also, my silly girl, listen carefully, 'people don't kill themselves for their own sake' means that if a person doesn't know how to constantly improve his cultivation , then it will be tolerated by the heavens and the earth, not the selfish explanation in your mouth."
Meizi suddenly realized, her eyes lit up, "Miss wants the servant to tell the third wife that Miss Wu's self-cultivation is not enough, so she deserves to be caught and punished, and no one can save her?"
"Well, yes, your comprehension is getting better and better." Yun Chu raised his eyebrows slightly and gave her a thumbs up.
Mei Zi smiled shyly, "The servant girl will go out and tell the story."
"Well, let's go!"
-
Meizi walked out of the courtyard, and the third wife Ding was standing not far away, looking at her anxiously.
Seeing Meizi, she immediately trotted over and asked hurriedly, "What's the matter, Miss Wei, would you like to help?"
Mei Zi shook her head regretfully, "Third Wife, our girl said that people will not be destroyed for themselves, and the girl can't help with this matter."
Ding immediately understood the true meaning of this sentence, his face turned pale for a moment, and his expression was a little dull.
"Third wife?"
Mei Zi hurriedly called out: "Don't expect my girl to come forward about this matter, it's not like you don't know that my girl can't even speak in front of the eldest wife."
Ding came to her senses and shook her head, "I don't blame her, it's because I was in the heat of the moment and didn't think carefully before I rushed to disturb you, Meizi, please remember to say sorry to Miss Wei for me later."
Mei Zi froze for a moment, then nodded, "Oh, yes, I will definitely bring the words to you."
-
Lotus Wind Garden.
With a cold face, Fan's eyes swept across Yun Qilan's body, and then sternly shouted, "Kneel down!"
"Auntie, Qilan doesn't know what she did wrong."
Yun Qilan bit her lower lip, tears streaming down her face.
It was the first time for her to be yelled at by Fan's.
The servants in the house had been sent away by Fan's family long ago, and all the maids and women knew that the eldest wife was not in a good mood these two days, so no one dared to say anything else, and ran away immediately.
Fan took out a letter that had been torn apart from his sleeve, slapped it heavily on the table, and said bitterly: "I have been in charge of the family for so many years, and I treat the girls in each house as if they were my own. I tried my best to find the best nuns for you, and I hope that all of you can become successful, and when you leave the gate of Dongyang Marquis Mansion, no matter what your family background is, you can be looked up to.
But I didn't expect your eyelids to be so shallow, and you wrote a letter with a foreigner privately before you left the cabinet. Thanks to my people, this letter was intercepted, otherwise it would go directly to the old lady. Think about it, you can Can there be good fruit to eat? "
Yun Qilan was so frightened that she trembled all over, with an expression of disbelief, "Auntie, I didn't write to anyone privately, I was wronged!"
The veins on Fan's forehead were throbbing, he grabbed the letter paper, crumpled it into a ball and threw it over.
Yun Qilan bent down tremblingly, picked it up and opened it.
This letter was written by Huang Zeyu. In the letter, he said that Huang Shoufu arranged for him a quiet place for him to study quietly. The place is far away from the capital, and he will leave in three days. Before leaving, Want to see her again and ask her when she can arrange time.
After reading it, Yun Qilan knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face, "Auntie, I was wronged."
She never passed a letter to Huang Zeyu, nor promised Huang Zeyu anything, why did that person want to kill her?
"Written in black and white, you told me you were wronged?" Fan sneered, "Yun Qilan, it seems that you have forgotten all the training I have given you these years. As a daughter, you are virtuous and dignified. Dufang is the way of dealing with people, but you are fine, you are only a few years old and you can't bear the temper to have an affair with a foreign man, right?"
Yun Qilan cried out, "Auntie, I really don't know why someone wrote to me, I don't know him!"
Up to now, she can only deny it to death.
After today, she must find out what's going on!
"How do I teach you on weekdays? Born in the Marquis of Dongyang, you are noble girls, and noble girls should have the restraint and elegance of noble girls. When it's time for you to hold them, you will take out your lady's Come on, when it's time for you to speak, you will try to spit out how much ink you have in your stomach. If you want people to think highly of you, you must not slack off on these two things. These are all I often warn you in your ears, but how do you do it?"
"I……"
"Let me ask you, where did you go with sister Yao the day sister Wei came back, and who did you meet?"
Fan originally didn't want to mention this matter, but Huang Zeyu dared to blatantly pass the letter to the inner courtyard of Dongyang Marquis Mansion. If she didn't care about it, once it was spread, outsiders would only laugh at her, the head in charge of Zhongfu. Mrs. Fang has no way to teach her daughter.
When asked by Fan, Yun Qilan immediately panicked and shook her head desperately, "No, I don't."
"Someone saw it with their own eyes, and you still dare to argue?" Fan's eyes became a little colder.
Yun Qilan thought of Qiu Xia's threats to her in the Su Mansion that day, she trembled with fright, her lips trembled, and she stammered, "It's... it's Fourth Sister's cousin."
Sure enough, it seems that what Qiu Xia said that day was not lying. Sister Lan and Sister Yao did go to see Huang Zeyu in private.
Two ladies who have been trained in etiquette just went to meet the foreigner without any scruples!
Fan was very angry, and quickly stretched out his hands to support his head.
"Auntie, I know I was wrong." Yun Qilan cried out of breath, "I shouldn't have listened to Fourth Sister, I shouldn't have believed her..."
Fan raised his head, "Tell me well, how did you know Huang Zeyu?"
The matter has come to this point, how could Yun Qilan dare to hide anything, she said in all sincerity: "My father is a concubine, my aunt knows about it."
Fan raised his eyebrows.
"Compared with the third and fourth sisters, my background is quite different. Because of this, I am often suppressed by the fourth sister. I have no room for resistance. She told me that as long as I obey her obediently , she chose an excellent husband-in-law for me from her grandfather’s house, and she blamed me for having shallow eyelids at the time, so I mistrusted her words for a while, until..." Biting her lips, she continued, "Until the day sister Wei came back, four My sister took me to the back garden to meet Mr. Huang."
She didn't say what she regretted later, even though her status was not high, Yun Qilan's self-esteem was extremely strong, she was afraid that Fan's family would make fun of her and make herself ashamed.
"When you see Huang Zeyu, do you regret it?"
Yun Qilan didn't say anything, but Fan answered the words for her.
Yun Qilan froze all over.
"Your little thoughtfulness, you can't hide it from me." Fan said: "Although I was not with your girl's house on the day of the Su family banquet, I still heard a lot. You dressed like that, isn't it? In order to show your face in front of the wife of the aristocratic family?"
Yun Qilan was speechless to refute.
"As a woman, who doesn't want to marry a good man?" Fan's tone slowed down, "I can understand your thoughts, but your way of doing things not only hurts the wife of the aristocratic family, but also greatly reduces your status. The temperament and quality that a woman should have, the banquet is indeed a good opportunity to show her face, but it is also an important occasion to test a person's speech and behavior. When you should not show your face, you interrupt indiscriminately. But you can see everything in your eyes, see you next time, who will rarely talk to you?"
Yun Qilan clenched her fingers tightly, her bowels almost turned green with regret.
Auntie is right, she did make a lot of mistakes because she was in a hurry to show off during the banquet in Su's house, but those who can go to the banquet in Su's house are people of high status, so they naturally wouldn't laugh at her on the face of it, Secretly poking her spine, she really lost a lot of face at the banquet that day.
"I will find a way to suppress the private letter." Fan said, "Since you have done something wrong, you will be punished, but you are a third-party person. If I punish you severely, you will not let me go. If people say that I am avenging myself, then I will ban you for a month, and during this month, I will let the foster mother come to watch you every day, and copy the etiquette and discipline she taught you."
Fan's punishment like this was considered fair. Yun Qilan had nothing to say, she stood up slowly, and wiped her tears, "Thank you, auntie, for your generosity."
"Go down!" Fan waved his hands wearily.
Yun Qilan bowed and retreated, but there was secretly hatred in her heart.
She had only met Huang Zeyu once, even if that person had extraordinary abilities, it was impossible for him to pass the letter directly to the inner courtyard of Dongyang Hou's mansion so quickly and calmly.
Then the only explanation is that Yun Xueyao is the matchmaker.
As soon as she thought of this, Yun Qilan immediately gritted her teeth, quickened her pace, and quickly went to Yun Xueyao's yard.
The weather was hot, Yun Xueyao was enjoying the coolness under the flower trellis, and two little maids were gently fanning cattail fans.
One of the maids spotted Yun Qilan wandering by the courtyard gate, and whispered to Yun Xueyao: "Miss Four, Miss Fifth is outside, it seems that she is here to look for you."
Yun Xueyao straightened up, and sure enough, she saw that the person outside was Yun Qilan, she raised her voice, "Since when did Fifth Sister learn not to enter Fourth Sister's courtyard?"
Yun Qilan was still hesitating at first whether she should go in directly to ask Yun Xueyao to understand, but now that she was called, she felt embarrassed, so she simply stopped thinking and walked in.
Yun Xueyao looked at her with a half-smile, "Tsk, look at Fifth Younger Sister's tear-stained face, I feel pity for it, who made you sad?"
Yun Qilan remembered the words that Fan's had taught her before, and immediately became angry, staring at Yun Xueyao without letting go, "Let me ask you, does that letter from Huang Zeyu have anything to do with you? "
Yun Xueyao smiled, "I don't understand what Fifth Sister is saying."
Yun Qilan was so exasperated that she almost gritted her teeth, "If you hadn't been able to bridge it, how could that kind of letter have reached the inner courtyard?"
A bit of sarcasm appeared in Yun Xueyao's eyebrows, "I heard people say that the fifth sister was called to Hefengyuan by her aunt earlier, and was scolded very badly. Could it be because of this?"
Yun Qilan clenched her fists tightly, her face flushed red with anger.
"You have a lot of courage to write letters with outsiders."
Yun Qilan's eyes were red, and she didn't dare to say a word that she was about to scold Yun Xueyao.
In the final analysis, she is just a daughter of a concubine, and her grandfather's family has no reliable background. Compared with someone like Yun Xueyao who has a first-assistant grandfather, she is not a star and a half behind.
After choking up a few times, she gritted her teeth and ran back to her yard with her skirt in hand.
Yun Xueyao looked at the back of her fleeing in a panic, and a look of ruthlessness flashed across her eyes.
The letter captured by Fan today, although it is true that Huang Zeyu is going to study far away, is not actually written by Huang Zeyu himself. Huang Zeyu is a literati, no matter how rude he is It is impossible to pass the letter directly to the inner courtyard of the boudoir.
That letter was written by Yun Xueyao imitating Huang Zeyu's handwriting to punish Yun Qilan, a little bitch.
At the beginning, she was warned to be obedient, but who knew that this little hoof was not greedy enough, let the first assistant's grandson not want it, but went to the Su family banquet to embarrass her, and didn't show her some color, Yun Xueyao still couldn't swallow this breath .
Yun Qilan, who didn't know the truth, was extremely wronged. She had just returned to the courtyard of the third room and was about to enter the room to cry, when the third wife Ding's cold voice came from behind, "Kneel down!"
I just knelt in front of the eldest wife for a long time before, but now when I came back, instead of being comforted by my mother, I yelled at her like this as soon as I met her, all the grievances in Yun Qilan's heart welled up all at once, tears fell down like hell, "mother--"
"I told you to kneel down, didn't you hear?" Ding's attitude was obviously tougher and colder than Fan's, Yun Qilan trembled when she heard it, but she still didn't kneel.
Gritting her teeth with tears in her eyes, Ding's heart was ruthless, and she slapped Yun Qilan's delicate face with her palm.
Yun Qilan was stunned. It was the first time her mother treated her so coldly at such an age, and even hit her for the first time.
This time, she dared not kneel down.
Yun Qilan cried and said, "Mother, my daughter knows she's wrong."
"You are not wrong, you are stupid!"
Ding's face was frosty and icy, and he was obviously very angry with his own daughter who was not good enough.
"How did I teach you before that the family status of our third room is not as high as that of the eldest room and the second room. If you want people to look up to you, you have to work hard on self-cultivation. Now it's doing well, just because of your stupidity. , all fell short!
I have reminded you in those years that Yun Xueyao is not a good quarrel, she usually treats you sincerely because she has a chief assistant and maternal ancestor who dares not to look down on even the head of the house?If you don't listen, it's sticking up like psoriasis, and it feels good to be beaten up by her this time?
Also, on the day of the Flower Appreciation Banquet in the Su Mansion, you were quite ashamed at the banquet, right?At that time, did Yun Xueyao stand up and say a word to smooth things over for you?She is afraid that she would be happy if you would become the laughing stock of the entire capital from now on! "
Pointing at Yun Qilan, Ding's voice contained hatred, "Pig brains, pig brains, they think they are pretty and clever, so their tails go up to the sky. Thanks to your aunt intercepting today's letter, otherwise If it falls into the hands of the old lady, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold your head up in the future."
Yun Qilan broke down in tears, "Mother, I really realized my mistake, from now on I will never associate with Fourth Sister again, I swear."
If he had known that Yun Xueyao would treat her like this, he would not be coerced by her to collude with her even if he killed her.
Ding's fingers were clenched tightly, his knuckles turned white, showing that he was very angry.
She didn't know about today's incident at first, but when she came back from Yun Chuwei's Xiangzhang Pavilion, she overheard the conversation between Yun Xueyao and the two maidservants, and then it dawned on her that her daughter was caught by this arrogant The fourth girl gave the design a serious sway.
She hates, of course she hates, but no matter how much she hates, she can only bury it in her heart. When she sees the person in the second room, she still has to talk with a smiling face.
Rich families are most particular about saving face.
Private grievances, no one will put it on the surface.
So in such an aristocratic family's back house, it's perfectly normal for me to offer you one today, and tomorrow you poke my back in the back.
After swallowing her anger for so many years, Ding was finally forced by this thoughtless daughter to show her temper.
"What does the eldest lady say?" Ding stroked her chest to comfort herself.
Fan's family is well managed, and she is not a big-mouthed person. She has always treated the third house girl fairly, and she will never expose such a shameful matter to the old lady.
Yun Qilan sobbed and said authentically: "Auntie punished me for a month and copied all the etiquette and discipline taught me by the foster nun."
Ding's heart was hard to calm down, and he said directly: "The punishment is light!"
Yun Qilan looked at her in disbelief, "Mother, my aunt said to find a way to suppress this matter and spare me this time, why are you still..."
Ding gritted her teeth angrily, "When will you really grow your brain? No matter how violent the eldest wife is, and how much she can suppress this matter, you can be sure that there will be no news of it reaching the old lady. In the ear? Don't forget, the second bedroom is still waiting to see the joke. Instead of letting people catch their mistakes and laugh at them, it's better to punish yourself first. Maybe the old lady can see this for the sake of your sincere repentance. Let’s not mention the matter.”
As soon as she heard that it might reach the old lady's ears, Yun Qilan panicked, "Mother, you have to find a way to save me, as long as you don't anger the old lady, even if I'm fined for another month of grounding, I'm willing." of."
The old lady is the head of the Dongyang Hou Mansion, and all the marriages of her grandchildren have to be approved by her. Once she is completely disappointed in herself because of this matter, then one can imagine the hardships she will have in the future.
Yun Qilan was terrified.
No, she absolutely does not allow herself to lose without a fight, let alone Yun Xueyao, who designed everything today, to sit on the sidelines.
As long as her mother finds a way to protect her this time, she must have a way to get back everything Yun Xueyao owed her!
"It's not that there is no way, but I have to wrong you for a while." Ding said quietly.
Now that things are going on, Yun Qilan can't control whether she is wronged or not, as long as she can keep the little image of herself in the old lady's mind, she can do anything.
Ding said: "In a short while, you will go to the old lady and invite yourself to go to Yingmei Temple to meditate for two months."
Yun Qilan thought of countless ways, but she never expected that her mother would let her go to a nunnery to cultivate.
How could she bear it for two months?
Ding's eyes sharpened, "Why, you can't let go of the rich clothes and fine food of the Hou Mansion at this moment, so you don't want to go?"
"No, mother, I didn't mean that, I just..."
Ding interrupted her all of a sudden, "Okay! This matter is settled like this, and there is no room for discussion. If you have a little brain, you should understand that I have put a lot of thought into letting you go to the nunnery."
Yun Qilan's heart skipped a beat.
Ding said: "Your second cousin is leading the cultivation in Yingmei An, and the reason why she is today is inseparable from your second aunt and Yun Xueyao. Do you think she is willing to stay in that kind of place for the rest of her life? ?"
Yun Qilan's eyes lit up, "Mother means, I went to Yingmei Temple, and I can take this opportunity to tell the second sister about the evil deeds of the fourth sister to me intentionally or unintentionally. She can't take revenge herself, but she can take advantage of it My hand avenged her, didn't I?"
Ding glanced at her with satisfaction, "Although your second cousin is a concubine, she is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She has a much better brain than you. If she knows that you have a common enemy, she will definitely fight against you , tell you all the schemes she has planned in the nunnery over the years, you just need to stay there with peace of mind, and after two months, I will arrange for someone to bring you back. At that time, I hope to see you Re-install your brain, otherwise, if you don't improve a little bit, even the god Da Luo descends to earth, and can't save you."
Yun Qilan stood up and embraced Ding Shi happily, "I knew that only my mother is the best for me."
Mrs. Ding patted her on the back lightly, "It's good that you know that in the back house of a wealthy family like ours, all the sisterhood is fake. You treated Yun Xueyao as your real sister all those years ago, but you don't know that in people's hearts, you Worse than the beggars she met on the way. When she sees a beggar, she will show her face and give him some money. For you, she only has sneering and sarcasm, and you will learn a lot of wisdom, mother. I hope you will come back after going to Yingmei Temple, so that you can really see these things clearly, so that you won't be fooled easily in the future."
Yun Qilan choked with sobs and nodded, "Thank you mother, I have written everything down."
The mother and daughter chatted for a while longer before Yun Qilan left for Qinfang Garden.
The old lady just woke up from her afternoon nap and was sitting and drinking tea.
When Yun Qilan entered the door, she caught a glimpse of Fan's and Yun Xueyao's presence, and she felt a chill in her heart.
I was still late, presumably Yun Xueyao had already applied eye drops in front of the old lady.
Thinking of this, Yun Qilan trembled all over.
"Fifth girl." The old lady had sharp eyes, seeing that something was wrong with her, and frowned, "What's wrong with you?"
With a sneer on the corner of Yun Xueyao's mouth, she looked at Yun Qilan, pretending to be concerned and said: "Yo, fifth sister knelt hard in the lotus garden of the eldest aunt this morning, and she hasn't recovered yet Come?"
Fan's face darkened.
Yun Qilan pursed her lips and secretly clenched her fists.
The old lady frowned even deeper, and looked at Fan, "Did the fifth girl make a mistake?"
In my impression, this eldest daughter-in-law has a rare good temper, and she doesn't easily punish others physically. Why did she think of punishing the fifth girl to kneel today?
Yun Qilan panicked in her heart, she was afraid that Mrs. Fan would reveal the matter of that letter.
Although Yun Qilan was sure that the letter had nothing to do with her, but it was written in black and white, and her boudoir name was written on it, once the old lady saw it, she would not be able to speak clearly even if she had ten mouths to speak.
Faced with this situation, Fan's was not in a hurry, "Sister Lan made a few mistakes at the Su family banquet that day, and after I came back, I was busy with other things, so I put it aside. Er just remembered, so someone sent her to lecture, and made her kneel down and think about it."
Old Mrs. Yun let out a "hmm", apparently believing Fan's words, Yun Qilan gave her the impression that she was a petty girl who wanted to climb up, but she didn't have that ability herself, what kind of Su family banquet was that? High-end, gathered more than half of the capital's famous wives, and according to Yun Qilan's temperament, she must want to show off in front of those wives, but in the end, painting a tiger is not an anti-dog, which made people laugh.
Old Mrs. Yun was very dissatisfied with Yun Qilan's behavior, but Fan had already punished her physically, and she had already given a lecture. If she punished her again, it would make people feel cruel, so she just lowered her eyes and looked at her, "Do you know where I am wrong? gone?"
Yun Qilan nodded, "Grandmother, eldest aunt, Qilan knows it's wrong."
Yun Xueyao wanted to expose this matter when she saw Fan's few words, she immediately became unhappy and opened her mouth to speak, how could Yun Qilan give her this opportunity, she knelt down heavily with a "plop" On the ground, Old Madam Yun kowtowed three times, "Thanks to Grandma and Auntie who never gave up and taught Qilan so hard, but Qilan's eyes were shallow, and she lost face of the Hou Mansion at the Su family banquet, Qilan felt guilty." , knowing that she has no face to face her grandmother and eldest aunt, so Qilan invited her to go to the nunnery to practice for two months."
Yun Xueyao was startled.
what!Yun Qilan invited her to practice in a nunnery?What is this little hoof thinking?
Yun Xueyao didn't think that with Yun Qilan's mind, she could come up with this method of retreating into advance, it must be the idea of her pure-looking mother who actually has a world inside.
Thinking of this, Yun Xueyao bit her lips bitterly, seeing the old lady's moved face, her heart was obviously warmed up by Yun Qilan's actions, now, if she tells about that letter again, It seems narrow-minded. The old lady hates the intrigue between the three families the most. Once she speaks out, not only will she not please her, but she will also lose her impression in front of the old lady.
According to the old lady's thinking, family ugliness should not be publicized. As Yun Qilan's cousin, since she knew about this kind of thing, she should find a way to hide the past and prevent the servants from gossiping, instead of coming to Qinfang Garden to beat the children. Report.
Although Yun Xueyao was arrogant in normal times, she still had some brains. Knowing that Yun Qilan had won this round, she stopped chasing after her and said a few hypocritical and sweet words with a smile on her face.
Yun Qilan was able to think of putting the family's reputation first, and of going to a clean place to improve her self-cultivation. The old lady was naturally overjoyed. help up.
"The fifth girl has finally grown up, and she knows that she has considered for the family." Mrs. Yun said with relief, "It's rare for you to have such a pious heart. Is there any reason why I won't allow it?"
After Yun Qilan heard this, she felt happy, "Thank you, grandma, for making it happen."
Fan asked: "And I don't know where Sister Lan is going to go to the nunnery?"
Yun Qilan glanced at Yun Xueyao with a half-smile, and said slowly, "Yingmei Temple."
As soon as the words fell, a crack was torn on Yun Xueyao's face pretending to be happy, with a hideous and ugly expression.
Yingmei Temple, that is where her second sister Yun Xirong took her hair to practice.
Yun Qilan clearly knew that she had a quarrel with Yun Xirong in the early years, and she chose Yingmei Temple specially, it must be premeditated!
Yun Qilan deeply felt Yun Xueyao's venomous gaze cast on her, and she smiled triumphantly in her heart.
Yun Xueyao, you will also have a day of fear?
Since Yun Xirong is your nemesis, then I will definitely use it without hesitation. When I come back after two months, I will give you an unexpected surprise!
After getting the old lady's nod, Yun Qilan started packing her things after retreating. She agreed to go to the nunnery to meditate. .
This matter quickly spread around the house.
When Yun Chuwei received the news, she was making hair oil by herself, using boiling water steam to smoke out the essence of jasmine flower soaked in sake, but the essence that came out at this time was not pure, and there was a thin layer of hair underneath. Distilled water, in order to separate the water from the essential oils, she found a hollow straw to gently suck out the water.
"I heard that Miss Wu invited her to the nunnery to meditate for two months!"
Meizi was still gossiping happily.
After a slight shock, Yun Chu took a big mouthful of distilled water into his mouth.
Meizi was shocked, and hurried over and patted Yun Chuwei on the back to make her spit it out, and handed her some tea to rinse her mouth.
After cleaning his mouth, Yun Chu gave her a slight look, "I said, can you finish your sentence at once? It's immoral to whet people's appetite."
Mei Zi stuck out her tongue resentfully, "Where did the servant expect that the girl would have such a big reaction?"
Yun Chu snorted slightly, "It's not my fault that I reacted too much, but based on my understanding of Yun Qilan, she didn't have the brains to think of retreating as an advance, so she avoided everyone in the Hou's residence and hid for two months. If this matter subsides, it will win the favor of the old lady, killing two birds with one stone."
Mei Zi realized later, "That's right, how could Miss Wu have such a temperament, how could she go to Hefeng Garden and kneel down and then suddenly grow brains?"
Yun Chuwei continued to make her fragrance, and said in a low voice, "It seems that we predicted well, the water in the Hou's mansion is deep, no one will be a fuel-efficient lamp."
Even Sanfang's wife, Ding, who seems to have no opinions, is not a simple person.
Yun Chuwei could guess with just a little brainstorming that this matter must be planned by Ding's behind the scenes. As for why Yun Qilan was sent to Yingmei Temple, it probably has something to do with the second girl Yun Xirong who led the cultivation practice.
The second girl, Yun Xirong, and the eldest girl, Yun Xirui, are sisters of the same mother, and they come from Aunt Lin, the second roommate.
According to the gossip that Yun Chuwei heard from the little maids, the second master Yunji is a lustful person, and before he married a serious wife, he let the maid of the first room conceive, so the eldest daughter and the second daughter of the second room were both pregnant. It's a concubine, this incident made outsiders see a lot of jokes, the second wife Huang shi had quarreled with the second master about this matter many times in the few years when she first married, the second master was frightened by the natal family behind Huang's back, So I tried every means to keep those two girls away, so there was a saying that the eldest girl, Yun Xirui, married to Dengzhou far away, and the second girl, Yun Xirong, went to Yingmei Temple to lead her practice.
Yun Xirong's "seeing through the world" at a young age is all the masterpiece of the second wife Huang and her precious daughter Yun Xueyao.
Ding asked Yun Qilan to stay in Yingmei Temple for two months, it seems that there will be a good show in the near future.
Of the three houses in the Hou Mansion, the backyard of the long house is the quietest. Yun Chong guards the frontier all the year round, and rarely goes home, so there is only his wife, Fan, and other than that, there are no other concubines.
The masters of the second and third bedrooms have concubines, and the struggle between wives and concubines never stops.
Thinking of this, Yun Chuwei couldn't help smiling, as expected of her own father, not only was he an upright person, but he also had a cleanliness habit that didn't allow other women to interfere in his marriage.

On the day Yun Qilan left, Mrs. Ding personally went to see her off outside the corner gate and gave her many instructions.
Yun Qilan wrote down one by one, put down the curtain of the carriage and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Yun Xueyao's sharp voice suddenly came from behind the corner door.
Ding's face collapsed, knowing that this person came in a bad way, he quickly gave Yun Qilan a wink as she lifted the curtain again.
Yun Qilan recalled, looking at Yun Xueyao with a smile on her face, "Is Fourth Sister also here to see me off?"
Yun Xueyao glanced casually at Ding, "Third Aunt, I have something to say to Fifth Sister alone, can you avoid it?"
Ding replied with a straight smile, "Then you two sisters talk, I'll go back right away, Sister Lan, be careful all the way."
"Mother, I will." Yun Qilan looked away from Ding's back, and looked at Yun Xueyao again, "Fourth sister, if you have anything to say, hurry up, I'm in a hurry."
Yun Xueyao was a bit reconciled, and approached the carriage with a warning look in her eyes, "Yun Qilan, don't think that I don't know what you plan to go to Yingmei Temple, I warn you, you'd better So give me some peace of mind, don't have any crooked thoughts, otherwise I will never forgive you."
Yun Qilan sneered in her heart, when will you spare me?
But he said in his mouth: "Although I don't quite understand what the fourth sister said, I am still very happy that you can come to see me off. Fourth sister's dark circles are a bit heavy. Is it because I didn't sleep well last night? I won’t be able to see anyone for a while, so you’d better go back and sleep in the cage, um, I’m leaving now, Fourth Sister, see you in two months.”
For the word "goodbye", Yun Qilan deliberately lengthened the ending sound, which has a deep meaning.
Yun Xueyao was shocked.
It was precisely because she was worried that Yun Qilan and Yun Xirong would get mixed up that she couldn't sleep last night. She kept thinking about countermeasures, but after thinking about it all night, she still had no idea. After all, Yun Xirong went to Yingmei Temple so For many years, she didn't know anything about her, and now she made up her mind on the spur of the moment, how could she think of a perfect solution so quickly?
No, we must not let this little bitch like Yun Qilan succeed, I'm afraid I have to go back and beg my mother to ask people from my grandfather's house to help me with this matter.
-
After seeing off Yun Qilan, the house in the Hou Mansion was much quieter. After lunch that day, Yun Chuwei took Meizi for a walk in the garden. Not far away, a little maid suddenly walked by, walking in a hurry, and seemed to be in a hurry. , she went too fast and accidentally fell down on the cobblestone path.
Yun Chuwei gave Meizi a wink, and Meizi immediately went over to help the little girl, a small bamboo tube for letter paper fell out of her body, and Meizi quietly picked up the bamboo tube and hid it in her sleeve while she was not paying attention.
After the little maid stood firm, she thanked her a thousand times and ran away.
The master and the servant returned to Xiangzhang Pavilion. Meizi carefully took out the small bamboo tube hidden in the sleeve. Yun Chuwei took it and opened it. After seeing the words and signature on it, he was a little surprised at first, and then frowned slightly. Picking up, he smiled coldly, "It seems that there will be another good show soon."
Chapter 59 I accidentally made a mistake about a detail. The eldest daughter Yun Xirui and the second daughter Yun Xirong of the Hou Mansion were born to the second wife, Aunt Lin, and have nothing to do with the eldest house. Master Hou only has a woman from the Fan family. Chapter mentioned, I went to look through the character settings, only to find out that I made a mistake, embarrassing.
