Chapter 57 Who Bullies Who
"Well, she will come back in two days." Yu Yaofang saw that the mother looked obviously good, and her heart was relaxed and her footsteps were lighter. Her skirt swirled into a half-open morning glory. She sat sideways on the kang and looked over. She looked carefully at Mrs. Xu and smiled and said, "Mother, you look really much better. I can see it when I look at you every day."
"Real?" Mrs. Xu couldn't help smiling and looked at her daughter softly. Her voice was low but happy: "I also feel much better. Yaoyao, sit over and my mother will talk to you." Yu Yaofang answered briskly, took off her shoes and moved to Mrs. Xu. Mrs. Xu raised her finger. Yu Yaofang waved her hand to screen the maids waiting in the room. Mrs. Xu held her daughter's hand and asked with a smile, "Did you see your seventh cousin yesterday?"
"Well, Tiantian and I came back from listening to the scriptures and happened to meet him and his second aunt at the door and said a few words."
"Your seventh cousin grew up in his ancestral house. When I was a child, I heard that he was very smart and naughty. I didn't expect him to be so sensible and well-born when he grew up. He looks likeable. Do you think your seventh cousin is good?" Mrs. Xu looked at her daughter and said tentatively. Yu Yaofang didn't think much at all. She nodded casually and said, "Okay, why is it bad? In this way, I learned about Yuan at such a young age, and my mother often praises him.
As soon as she heard the word ' Xieyuan', Mrs. Xu's face flashed with a trace of melancholy, sighed gently, and stopped for a long time before she continued, "It's just great. If it hadn't been for Xieyuan."
"Why did your mother say that?" Yu Yaofang was surprised. Mrs. Xu looked at her daughter with pity and smiled bitterly and said, "Your second aunt is honest, generous and kind-hearted. Your second uncle is gentle and reasonable, and Lening Xu's family style is good. If you can climb down this family for you, such a husband, such an uncle, is also Lening Xu family, you can get married. Even if I don't have it one day, I'm very relieved..."
"Mom, don't say that!" Yu Yaofang interrupted Mrs. Xu's words in shock and urgency. Mrs. Xu smiled bitterly, lowered her eyes, and rested for a long time before then continued, "Your seventh cousin has a good family, good character, talent, good birth, and everything is good. Alas, I'm afraid that we can't climb up, Qingjiang Houfu... Alas." Mrs. Xu was sad and blemied. Hearing what Mrs. Xu said, Yu Yaofang stared at A Niang with wide eyes and laughed for a moment: "Nang, even if I can climb up, I don't want to marry such a young talent." Yu Yaofang hesitated, looked at Mrs. Xu with a cunning look and said to the front with a face: "Today is what my mother told me first. If I say something inappropriate, don't blame my daughter's family for thinking about it. It's not quiet enough."
Mrs Xu lowered her eyes with a bitter smile. She was so ill that she only looked forward to quickly finding a good marriage for her daughter. However, although she should not have told her daughter about this marriage, who else can she discuss this marriage with besides her daughter?
"Mother, yesterday, Tiantian and I also said that my seventh cousin was good. Tiantian said that such a young talent can't get married the most. Which talent is not pretentious? This romantic talent, if you look at it from the outside, it will be as fragrant and bright as the flower. But if he marries such a romantic talent, he will know today, and tomorrow he will miss which dancer the day after tomorrow. The poems, words and talents are all used on it, not to mention the obstacles. How much money will it will spoil? Son?! Most of these talents don't care about common affairs. They can only spend money but don't make money. They are the least useful. If they marry such a romantic talent, it will be the same as changing from flower connoisseurs to flower growers. They are busy catching insects and fertilizing every day, and the flowers raised are still someone else's.
Mrs. Xu stared at her daughter and stayed for a long time before coming to her senses: "Is this what Sister Tian said?"
"Um...ah... that, no, no, let's just say it casually. Niang, didn't we agree that you provoked this to me? This can't be blamed." Yu Yaofang naturally refused to confess Li Tian. She avoided it. Mrs. Xu took a long breath, stared at Yu Yaofang for a long time, patted her hand gently, and did not blame her: "This sister Tian... Mrs. Lin is married to such a romantic talent. Alas, it's also this reason. I have always thought you were still young, if you are After getting married, you have to get married in a year or two. Auntie is reluctant to give up with you and always wants to stay with you for a few more years. Who knew that Auntie is so ill..."
"Mother, your illness is getting better and better day by day. People eat grains and have to get sick. When you get better, help me slowly, and Tiantian. Let's choose a good marriage. Let's not like it." Yu Yaofang leaned against Mrs. Xu and gently rubbed her face, half comforting and half coquettish. Mrs. Xu smiled and let her daughter rub against her face. She only felt that her heart was soft and warm, and there was no more warm time than this.
After talking for a while, Mrs. Xu saw that she was a little tired. Yu Yaofang called the maid who was close to her to come in, waiting for Mrs. Xu to lie down, put down the curtain, and quietly retreated out.
At the door of the main room, Teng Huang saw Yu Yaofang coming out and was about to report it. As soon as he opened his mouth, he quickly stopped talking and pointed to the east wing. Yu Yaofang was aware of it and quickly pushed Teng Huang out of the porch and walked to the door of the east wing. Teng Huang then whispered: "The little man next to the master came to send a message and said that the uncle would come to visit his husband tomorrow. People." Yu Yaofang's teeth were angry and twisted her eyebrows and thought, "Come on. If we don't let them come, it will be rude to us. When we come tomorrow, we will stop outside the hanging flower door, saying that the mother is confused and can't see anyone. There is no need to let the mother know about this matter. The mother has just been fine for two days, and she can't block her anymore."
"Yes!" Teng Huang simply answered. Since she said she wanted to move her house that day, her aunt has been much more refreshed, and even with them.
In the water pavilion in the back garden of the breeze building, the fifth prince Qin Yu lazily leaned on the yellow pear short couch, crossed his legs, and nodded his toes one after a time. He looked at the bright lotus of the lake and the light pink of the branches that had opened early. He held only a newly picked lotus in his hand, leisurely peeled the tender lotus seeds and threw them into his mouth, and narrowed his eyes from time to time. It seems that I am very satisfied with the freshness and tenderness of lotus seeds.
The shopkeeper Huang Er sat on the chair next to him, shook the folding fan, and looked at the fifth prince pitifully. He watched him grow up as a child. This love is like father to son.
"But about 100,000 silver, let's make a step. After all, she is an official girl, so let's buy it as a worry-free one." Huang Er's shopkeeper gently persuaded him. The fifth prince raised his eyebrows and turned his head to Huang Er's shopkeeper and said, "Don't worry? When will you be worry-free after spending money? Can a person like her know what is good and what is wrong? There was a strong anger and contempt in the voice of the fifth prince: "She only thinks that you can be bullied by me. Isn't that the case since childhood? Several brothers only bullied me when she saw whoever she praised! It's just that my mother is gone, and the other family doesn't work hard. If it's the fourth brother, do you think she dares? She is a dog in front of the fourth brother! Humph, am I still the time when I don't understand and was bullied by her? Pass the message to me, all over the capital, if anyone dares to take the lead in her hand, I will let him go bankrupt! We don't want this song, and we don't want it for nothing. I just want to see what she takes to pay for this difference. It's the end of the month. If she can't hand over the wine, she just waits to write a fold! Let's talk about the business of an orphan girl. Humph, you don't have to deal with her!"
"It's not worth calming down and being angry with her," Huang Er's shopkeeper hurriedly persuaded, "She's not worth being angry with her, but for her. The household department is in charge of the fourth master. She can't make wine after taking the song, and the inspection office has to bear it. If she reports it again, she has to be clamped in the end. The fourth master's hand, although the Duke of Wen doesn't need to pay attention to it, the fourth master's side is not too good.
"Don't be afraid," the fifth prince threw lotus seeds into his mouth and sneered, "She was such a fool. She robbed other people's shop and broke the fourth brother, a Beijing government official. The former son forcibly robbed people's money, which made the fourth brother make a big brother and make such a big deal in Qingfeng Tower. Ding Qi, the Duke of Lai, died again. Who doesn't say that he is he? Traitored to death? Ding Qi didn't know who to write before his death. The post was really touching. Now the Guozi Prison is simply a copy. Which company doesn't mention that the children of the family are far away from Wu Chenglin? The fourth brother was so annoyed that he could think about the impeachment. Humph," the fifth prince narrowed his eyes and sneered a few times: "This introduction is also a way for the fourth brother to find a way to speak and teach the pair of fools a lesson. If you want to delay her until the end of the month, you must hand this matter to the fourth brother, and I'll wait to see how the fourth brother governs the Duke of Wen!"
The shopkeeper Huang Er looked at the fifth prince with a wry smile on his face and said lightly, "It's time for me to get married. This is still so heavy."
"Alas!" The fifth prince sighed heavily: "I also want to be kind everywhere, but people have bullied us. Look, Ningguo just sat in the car to the Qingfeng Tower, and asked us to take out more than 100,000 taels of silver in one sentence. The meaning of this is still that we plan her. It was she generously spared us. Come on. If it's cheap, you have to pay for it. If you really give it money, she really dares to say that we have tricked for her and took out more than 100,000 yuan of silver! This is not once or twice. If I can even endure this today, everyone in the capital will dare to reach out and hit me in the face!"
Shopkeeper Huang Er looked at the fifth prince who became more and more angry, sighed gently and did not persuade him any more. It is true that you want to take a step back, but in the eyes of others, you have become weak and bullying.
