Chapter 421 Brother and sister turn against each other, aunt and sister-in-law centrifugal
The glory hall is very calm.
Yi Jing stepped into the main courtyard, but saw the servants led by Mother Zhu waiting under the corridors on both sides of the courtyard door. More than a dozen warblers and swallows stood with their hands, but held their breath. This situation was obviously different from the past. It seemed that the calm at this time was just an interval of the storm.
There must have been a dispute, but with the arrival of her and Yu Yu, it will calm again.
Binjing sighed gently with a slight regret.
Yu Yu looked at the little wife beside him with a faint smile and lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, with the temperament of Xie Shizi's brother and sister, we have to quarrel next."
The scenery was immediately blaring.
As soon as I got up the white jade steps in front of the main hall, I saw several people sitting in the hall. Yijing first saw the slightly red eyelids of the little Xie standing beside the old princess, and his face was full of chagrin that could not dissipate. The corners of his mouth couldn't help rolling, but quickly took away the disaster.
When seeing the ceremony, beautiful scenery carefully looked at Xie Shizi. In middle age, a square national character face, without frowning, but there were creases of the word "chuan". A pair of eyes were very similar to Xiao Xie's. At this time, although he tried his best to make peace, his words and deeds were still exposed to be inherently severe.
Looking at Aunt Zhi standing aside, of course, she is no longer embarrassed, but her eyes are more red than Xiao Xie's. Her eyes are full of water, and a begonia silk flower on her temples makes her cheeks pale.
Aunt Zhi was also looking at the son and his wife who came side by side. Seeing them pick up the steps, the son was dressed in a dark green orchid leaf arrow sleeve brocade robe, which set off his figure as straight as green bamboo. Compared with a few years ago, his elegant temperament was still free from vulgarity. Only at that time, the slightly pale teenager had become more calm, and his face was still like crown jade and lips. The rosyness is not like the green at that time, the eyebrows are still like the beauty of the landscape, and the outline of the cheeks is more and more distinct.
She suddenly remembered that summer, which was still in this main hall. She was in a nervous mood and met his smiling eyes. There was a slight sweetness in her heart and a shy feeling of hot temples.
At this time, his eyes will no longer stop on her.
The woman who stood side by side with him smiled, her eyebrows were gentle, and her words and deeds were generous. Under his gentle gaze, her cheeks were slightly dyed red. Between looking forward, her eyes were shining, so bright and noble, which made people blush and gloomy.
Because of an awkward and tense atmosphere in the main hall, it dissipated in the unscrupulous smile of the concubine.
It is said that the two are comparable to the pearl of Yubi, but it is not flattering.
Xie Zhi couldn't help thinking, if she hadn't been worried about the death of her son and obeyed her parents' orders to marry him as his wife, and stood side by side with him at this time, would she be so glorious and happy?
How can you only get into a sedan chair? The day after the wedding, you will be humiliated.
How can you still be scolded by your aunt in front of your parents?
She remembered Yuzhou, who was half drunk that day, looked at her indifferent eyes in front of the bright moon and several maids, and spread her hand to scold her for "what are you doing?"
Without pity, when she couldn't bear to cry because of the pain, she had to sneer: "Aren't you just looking forward to this day? What, I regret it at this time, bitch, I'm the one who regrets it.
The internal organs gave birth to a sharp pain, so that Zhi was shaky and unstable.
"Grandma, I look at Zhiniang's face very bad. She should be uncomfortable. Let her sit down and talk."
Yi Jing accompanied the old princess and Mrs. Xie to talk and laugh, which eased the atmosphere in the hall. Then the old princess allowed Xiao Xie to sit down. Of course, she would not let Yijing stand and wait. When she turned around, she saw that Aunt Zhi's face was white, her temples were sweaty, her knees trembled slightly, and she did not hesitate to plead to plead for her.
"Sit down, too, girl." The old princess doesn't mind.
Mrs Xie looked at Zhiniang standing sullenly. Instead, Mijing thanked her with a smile and helped her sit down. She couldn't help shaking her head secretly. They were all the daughters who came out of the Gonghou mansion. Zhiniang was still a few years old. Although her mother treated her as much as her own, she never neglected the basic etiquette and education. It was always looked good. At this time, compared with others, it is really different from clouds and mud.
She has already been like sitting on pins and needles. In fact, she doesn't want to come here at all today - Mrs. Xie's temperament is clear to herself. She is a tricky and arrogant in the boudoir. After marrying the royal palace, she is even more domineering. When her mother-in-law is alive, she indulges her. She never dares to say half a word in front of her. Zhi Niang is The concubine's daughter did such a thing again, which dragged the whole family out. Although Xie Shizi was not as good as before, she was a daughter who had been spoiled for more than ten years, and she did not want Zhi Niang to be wronged by others. She forced Yu Dong to agree to invite Feng Yiren, which was already a measure of decent for Zhi Niang.
But after all, she is just a noble concubine, and there is such a mother-in-law as Xiao Xie on her head. How can she not be wronged?
As soon as Xie Shizi heard that Zhiniang was almost forced to avoid Zitang by Xiao Xie, she could not resist her anger and insisted on asking for an explanation. Mrs. Xie knew that the two brothers and sisters were inevitably arguing. Sure enough, after two sentences, she quarreled in front of the old princess without hesitation.
For a concubine, Mrs. Xie only felt ridiculous, not to mention that the other party is still her own sister.
But Xie Shizi forced her to do nothing. As a direct mother, even if she pretended to be, she had to say a few good words for Zhi Niang. Unexpectedly, she was scolded by Xiao Xie. It was still those old words that she scolded her direct mother for being careless in discipline and did not want to see the common girl in the first place. At this time, she came up and was uneasy and shameless.
Mrs Xie's mouth seems to be chewing yellow lotus, and she can't say anything if she is not dumb.
I'm also worried that there will be a complete stalemate with the King of Chu for a mother. In the future, she will be more and more neglected by the Kyoto nobles.
Although the old princess is also the daughter of the Duke of Zhen, she has always been a confused and weak person, far from being strong as the daughter-in-law of the little Xie. The king of Chu and the prince have alienated the Xie family in the past. Otherwise, they will help them, and the prince will not be idle for many years.
How could Mrs. Xie come to the King of Chu Mansion to make trouble for Zhi Niang?
However, when she saw Yijing's attitude towards Zhi Niang, her mind changed slightly, so although she was dissatisfied with Zhi Niang's dullness, she pretended not to notice it.
In the scene, Xiao Xie had just become so powerful that his sister-in-law couldn't speak. Although she was scolded by her eldest brother, she cried the wife of the Duke of Zhen, who had passed away for many years. She successfully blocked Xie Shizi's mouth and Yu and his wife. Seeing that Xie Shizi became more and more difficult to talk about Zhi Niang, Xiao Xie Shi was very happy. At this time, she saw that there was a good scene that there was an omen for Zhi Niang to stand up. She couldn't hold back. Aunt Zhi didn't have time to sit down. She just snorted coldly.
"Jing girl, you are still a famous girl. Why don't you know the rules of etiquette? Zhi Niang is a concubine. There is no place for her in front of the elders."
Before she could answer, Yu Yu said, "Second aunt, although the third sister is the second brother's concubine, she is still her grandmother's niece. A Jing also regards her cousin. Seeing that she is not feeling well, she can't bear to do so. The etiquette is in front of outsiders. If the family is in the same place, there is no need to be courte."
Don't mention Mrs. Xie, even Xie Shizi felt rare. Yu Yu often disdained them and even disdained them. Sanniang didn't say anything. At that time, including Si Niang, who came to the royal palace as a guest and wanted to enter Guan Suiyuan, he never thought that Yu Yu could actually say something to help him at this time.
The couple looked at each other and looked at the beautiful scenery coincidentally. It was rumored that Yu Yu valued Princess Guangping very much, which was true at all.
The old princess just looked at Xiao Xie's heart and scolded her brother and sister-in-law for sharp words. At this time, she also said coldly, "Second daughter-in-law, I allowed the girl to sit down. Didn't you accuse me of not knowing the rules of etiquette?"
As soon as Xie Shizi heard this, he immediately felt confident. He stared and opened his mouth and scolded: "It's all your mother who used to spoil your temper. How can you not respect the elder? Besides, even if Zhiniang is a concubine, she is also your niece. If Zhou's son marries his wife, she should naturally hold a concubine in front of the main room. We will not rely on the momentum of the government to force you to neglect your serious daughter-in-law and talk about etiquette. On the one hand, you can contradict the elder, and on the other hand, scold the younger generation for no reason. What kind of etiquette is this?
In the heart of the scene, it's not that she wanted to provoke trouble this time. Who made the second aunt ignorant herself? Even if Zhiniang is Yuzhou's concubine, she has nothing to do with the long house. Because of the in-law relationship with the Duke of Zhen, she is willing to treat Zhi Niang as her cousin. Does the second aunt still force her to treat her as an aunt?
ignored the little Xie with invisible flames on his head. Yijing only smiled sweetly at Zhi Niang and helped her sit down: "Since my grandmother has allowed it, let the third sister sit down."
Well, let's just call the third sister.
Xiao Xie's eyes turned white with anger. How could he take this secret loss? He sneered again: "Brother, don't blame me for treating Zhi girl severely. She had lost her tutoring when she was in the boudoir. At this time, it was not better than before. Not to mention being a concubine, even if she is a serious daughter-in-law, she can only be obed. I am not like my sister-law, Zhi girl. Even if she is a concubine, I will treat her as my niece. I can't let her not know the importance of the rules anymore, and I don't have to make people laugh at the wrong customs of the Xie family.
Yu Yu saw that Xiao Xie did not point the finger at Yijing. Of course, he ignored it. Yijing was originally going to see the lively, and she would not fall into it. She sat down with her eyes, but she was very "admired" Xiao Xie - seeing that Xie Shizi was very dissatisfied with her, and the old princess had long been biased. She still bit the Duke of Zhen. The tutor of the house did not let go, and even brought Mrs. Xie to offend her completely. Even if Mrs. Xie didn't want to see her daughter, she was probably very dissatisfied with her sister-in-law.
Sure enough, Mrs. Xie couldn't stand it: "My sister-in-law scolded me for improper discipline and blamed my direct mother for treating the common daughter badly. I felt strange. Zhou'er is your own son. Why is she so unbred? Even if Zhi Niang had something wrong at that time, she couldn't slap her. If Zhou'er is a well-behaved person, how I did such a thing, which ruined Zhi Niang's innocence. Why did Zhi Niang succumb to the position of concubine? It's all because you can't teach your son. At this time, it's embarrassing to treat Zhi Niang harshly. I don't know what your full of etiquette is.
This can be regarded as stab on Xiao Xie's head. She stood up, raised her eyebrows, and her eyes stared at Mrs. Xie: "Are you still complaining about me? How dare you say that my son is not? Obviously, your daughter couldn't get married, so she begged to send her to the door and forced Zhouer to accept her as a concubine..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xie Shizi in a cold voice: "If Yu Zhou is reluctant, why do you force Zhi Niang to drink shelter soup? Shouldn't Yu Zhou be responsible for ruining Zhi Niang's innocence? However, relying on the name of a clan, he said that he could not marry a concubine's daughter. I think it's not good to force you to compromise in terms of brother and sister's relationship. Unexpectedly, you have taken such an inch. You are also a little self- aware that Yuzhou will be an idle clan relative in the future. If it hadn't been for his brother-in-law who was still in charge of the Xishanwei, he would not even get along with a serious errand. The patriarch would not care whether he married or not, let alone the empress dowager and the emperor would argue. I wronged Zhi Niang as a concubine because I should be your brother. If it were someone else's family, if this matter went to the patriarch's mansion, Yu Zhou would have to be discredited first. You can't escape the charge of being a strict son and damaging the reputation of the royal family.
This was not bad. No matter how concubine came out, she was also the daughter of the public palace. If Xie Shizi really did not forgive at that time, Yuzhou had to marry Zhiniang. Even if Yuzhou is a son of the clan, with the orders of his parents and the words of the matchmaker, there is no reason to oppose the patriarch and the Ministry of Ceremonies, and the Holy Lord will not pay attention to such idle things.
But the old princess was not happy to hear that Xie Shizi was dissatisfied with Yuzhou. At this time, she shouted heavily: "Don't talk about it. What's the benefit of mentioning the past? You can't write two thank you words in one stroke, not to mention that you are still brothers and sisters. Although they are all for your children, they should not be so tit-for-tat.
Seeing that the old princess was still willing to defend Yuzhou, Xiao Xie immediately burst into tears: "Mother, Zhou'er is your own grandson. Brother and sister-in-law are trying to discredit him. You have to be the master of Zhou'er."
The old princess rarely woke up this time and stared at Xiao Xie: "They also feel sorry for their daughter. If they are in a hurry, how can they do that? Well, don't argue about this. I originally said that the second daughter-in-law should not have it, and it will never happen again in the future. With me one day, I won't let people treat her badly.
Little Xie's crying choked in his throat and gritted his teeth.
Seeing Xie Shizi's triumph, Mrs. Xie smiled at the corners of her lips, and Yijing hurriedly said flattering words. Xiao Xie only felt a flame pulp surging in her lower abdomen and suddenly said a sentence--
