Chapter 163 The Xiao Family's Plan
Chapter 163 The Xiao Family's Plan
"From the looks of it, it looks like it's too much worry, hurts the heart, and doesn't have a good life, so it's the root of the disease." Ju Xiang said in a low voice.
"Is there any way to recuperate and treat now?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked in a low voice.
Ju Xiang frowned, "Eldest Princess has always been in good health, and now she has time to recuperate her body, but the herbs used to recuperate her body are rare and hard to find."
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, and called Zhuxiang over, "Send a message to Lan Xue and shopkeeper Liang, and tell Guangyuan Chambers of Commerce to pay attention to it. All good medicines that can nourish and nourish the body should be sent to Chang'an City."
"The servant girl will write some herbs later, and tell them to pay more attention." Ju Xiang said.
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded in agreement.
"Yuyu, come quickly." The eldest princess called her with a smile.
Xiao Yuzhuo was about to go there, but Juxiang stretched out her hand and gently grabbed her sleeve.
She looked at Ju Xiang suspiciously.
But Juxiang said in a low voice: "Actually, no matter how good the medicinal materials are, they are just auxiliary effects. The most useful and quickest effect is to make the eldest princess feel at ease. People's spirits are not tense, and there is no worry or worry in their hearts. , all diseases will disappear naturally.”
Xiao Yuzhuo looked at the eldest princess upon hearing this.
Since she came back, the eldest princess wept excitedly at the second gate.
She was smiling all the time, now holding Chong Wu in her arms, the eldest princess was even more grinning from ear to ear.
Maybe it was because of the blood in his blood, Chongwu was also very well-behaved in the arms of the eldest princess, he took some snacks, but instead of putting them in his own mouth, they stuffed them all into the eldest princess's mouth.
It's happier to make the eldest princess happy than to win a reward.
Xiao Yuzhuo couldn't help showing a smile, the Holy Majesty told her to live in the Xiao family, although she had to watch the faces of many elders in the Xiao family and endure the unfriendliness of the sisters at home, but at least she could stay with her parents.
Being able to make the parents who miss her and love her wholeheartedly happy is also a little bit of the duty of being a child.
It's all right for her to occupy the body of the princess, and if she doesn't do her filial piety for her, I'm afraid God won't see it, right?
Seeing that Chongwu actually climbed onto the back of the eldest princess, she asked the eldest princess to play with him on her back.
Xiao Yuzhuo hurried forward, "Come down quickly, you are already three years old now! You are so heavy, isn't grandma tired of carrying you?"
Xiao Chongwu pouted and was about to come down.
The eldest princess dragged his little butt, "Grandmother is not tired! What do you weigh so much? Your mother is five or six years old, and grandma will carry her on her back!"
Xiao Chongwu immediately looked at his mother provocatively, "Shame! Shame, mother!"
Xiao Yuzhuo felt both distressed and helpless.
Three generations of grandparents and grandchildren are laughing and playing.
Suddenly, a servant girl said from the outside: "Ma'am invited the princess to come over, saying that the elders have been waiting in the Weirui courtyard for a long time, and they are all looking forward to seeing the princess!"
"I was only concerned about my daughter's happiness, but I forgot to ask you to greet the elders." The eldest princess got up and said, "Go, I will accompany you there."
The sage asked Xiao Yuzhuo to return to Xiao's house to be married.
Whether the Xiao family is willing or not, this is an imperial decree and cannot be disobeyed.
Ask Xiao Yuzhuo to go over, how can it be so simple to meet?
The person who was not in a good mood naturally wanted to show Xiao Yuzhuo's face when he said hello.
The eldest princess felt sorry for her daughter and went with her because she wanted to support her.
Xiao Yuzhuo hurriedly comforted her, "Don't go, Aunt, I'll just go and pay respects to the elders. The Weirui Courtyard is my grandmother's yard, and my grandmother is here, so no one will bully me."
The eldest princess sighed and shook her head slightly, "Let me go with you."
Seeing that the eldest princess insisted, Xiao Yuzhuo had no choice but to help her go to the Weirui courtyard together.
A lot of people gathered in the Weirui courtyard.
It was very lively inside and outside the house.
The young lady of the Xiao family was picking up stones or pulling grass leaves in the yard.
Those naughty ones who wanted to pick flowers were immediately beaten by the foster mother, "Flowers in the old lady's yard are not allowed to be picked! Our Xiao family values filial piety and rules the most. Respect elders Or, never slack off!"
These words were intentionally said lukewarmly when Xiao Yuzhuo passed by.
It's like telling the little lady who wants to pick flowers.
But the eyes of nurturing mother glanced at Xiao Yuzhuo.
Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at the foster mother, this is in the eldest lady's room, probably what the eldest lady wanted someone to tell her, right?
She curled her lips and smiled slightly, "Mom, walk slowly, be careful where you step."
Xiao Yuzhuo helped the eldest princess into the main room, but there were quite a few people sitting in the main room.
Grandmother, three aunts, and several cousins who are not young, and the aunts who have the face are all in the room.
But the house is very quiet, not a bird is heard, even the slight sound of grandmother sipping can be heard.
I haven't seen you for more than two years. The Xiao family's tutoring is so strict?
Xiao Yuzhuo helped the eldest princess to sit aside, she hurried to the middle of the room, knelt down and kowtowed to her grandmother.
"Yu Niang is finally able to come back, kowtow to grandma, wishing grandma good health and free from all diseases." Xiao Yuzhuo kowtowed.
He got up again and greeted his aunts, "Greetings to my aunts, may my aunts have no worries and everything goes smoothly."
The old lady hummed, and the uncles raised their hands to wake her up.
The old lady asked: "Eleventh Mother has already married, and now the young ladies who are about your age have already married and become mothers, and the eldest in the family is Eighteenth Mother, and now she is about to reach her age. You..."
The old lady turned her face sideways, looked at Xiao Chongwu who was held in the arms of the eldest princess, and couldn't help frowning.
"What do you mean when you come back with a child?"
Xiao Yuzhuo pursed her lips, she was eleventh in the Xiao family, but the Xiao family seldom called her eleventh.Now coming back from the outside, the treatment is different.
The old lady asked like this, it seems that the imperial decree has not yet arrived, the Holy Majesty only sent someone to pass the oral order?
Is it true that the old lady doesn't know the Holy Spirit's dictation?Or was he deliberately trying to embarrass her in public?
Xiao Yuzhuo sighed and did not explain yet.
The eldest lady suddenly said, "The old lady doesn't know, the majesty told someone that the princess was picked up from outside. Didn't he retire General Jing earlier? Naturally, it is not suitable to live in Wu Wang's mansion as soon as he comes back." , who lives here, whose name is not right, is it a wife or a concubine?"
The people who were sitting in the room at first, heard the phrase "wives or concubines", they all covered their mouths and sniggered.
The eldest princess frowned and coughed heavily.
But now her status in the Xiao family is obviously not as good as before. The wives and concubines of the Xiao family are not afraid of her, and they don't sell her face.
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled slightly, "Yes, a wife and a concubine, you can't mess around. The Holy Majesty told me to live in my mother's house. He just waited for His Highness King Wu to put down the rebel army and marry me back in a good and prosperous way, so as not to cause our mother and son to suffer. People discuss."
Seeing her being ridiculed, the eldest lady was not ashamed, but admitted it openly, staring at her for a while, without saying a word.
"Since it is arranged by the Holy Majesty, then you can live in the Xiao family well, but you must restrain your temper in the past. The people of Chang'an said that the Xiao family can't raise their daughter, but they have said it for many years!" The old lady said in a deep voice.
The Xiao family has been talked about for many years, why didn't they dare to say this in front of her, in front of the eldest princess?
Don't you think that she is easy to bully now, and mother is easy to bully?
Xiao Yuzhuo was silent for a moment, then smiled slightly, "Grandmother, don't worry, all the daughters of the Xiao family marry well, and there is no one who can't get married? Even I, who is divorced, can marry again in a good way , let alone the other sisters."
"That's where the Xiao family's gentlemen are standing in the hall! You don't feel ashamed, but you feel proud?" The lady said with a stare.
Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at her, and suddenly thought, if Liuniang hadn't been killed by King Yue.
It's time to get married by now, maybe even conceive a child.
In addition to her two sons, Da Furen only has such a biological daughter under her knees. Now that she sees her marrying from the Xiao family again, thinking of her own daughter, it is inevitable that she will feel sad.
Xiao Yuzhuo thought that Liu Niang's confidante died early, so she didn't say anything to provoke the eldest lady.
But I saw a young lady with delicate features behind the eldest lady who suddenly touched the corner of her eyes, "Seeing the princess getting married from the mansion, I can't help but think of Sixteenth Sister, who is the same age, but Sixteenth Sister can only be with the green lantern forever." ..."
The lady snorted angrily, "It's sixteen lives that are not good, so I can't compare with others."
"Now the Xiao family still has to prepare a dowry for the princess, and put up lanterns and festoons...Maybe if I ask Miss Sixteen to come back and have a look, she will be able to figure it out..." The little lady said in a sour tone.
The eldest lady's face became more and more ugly.
Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at the little lady, Sixteen Niang was already dead.
The eldest lady said to the public that it was Sixteen Niang who didn't want to get married, and she wished to be accompanied by a green lantern in front of the Buddha, just to make her famous.
And still don't give up, don't think she died outside.
I only hope that one day I can find Liuniang and bring her back to the mansion.
That's much better reputation than the person who divorced her husband and brought her back to her mother's family.
When the eldest lady saw her, she clearly thought of her daughter.
I might miss Sixteen Niang in my heart.
That little lady pokes at the Da Furen's heart with every sentence. Is this a trick to make Da Furen hate herself?
"For 16 years, I have been devoted to pure filial piety. I would rather delay my own happiness than my own future. I would like to pray and chant scriptures for my family in front of the Buddha. It is not like some people who act recklessly and smear the reputation of the Xiao family. They only care about their own happiness and never miss their families. How to stand tall in front of others, relying on the family's father and brother being officials in the court, relying on the family's aura to show off their might, and not being grateful in front of the family. Think that all of this is easy for me!" Da Furen's words are poignant Scolded in people's faces.
Xiao Yuzhuo thought about Sixteen Niang's death and didn't want to argue with the eldest lady.
Most mothers love their daughters in the same way, and the eldest lady is also a poor person.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't say a word.
The eldest princess couldn't swallow this breath, "The Xiao family was afraid of being dragged back then, and I, Yuyu, didn't marry from the Xiao family. Later, the Xiao family wanted to curry favor with Yuyu and tell Yuyu to go back to her mother's house often! Are you looking down on her now? The Xiao family can’t tolerate us, we just don’t live in the Xiao family! Can’t Aniang support you? Let’s go back to the eldest princess mansion right now!”
The eldest princess got up and pulled Xiao Yuzhuo, and walked out.
The old lady grabbed the crutches and fell down.
The cane hit the ground with a muffled bang.
It's like hitting someone's head.
The room fell silent for a moment.
"Let's go, why don't you go? Go back to the eldest princess mansion, are you planning to ask the fourth master of the Xiao family to marry you back again? The daughter of the Xiao family is not well-bred. What does it have to do with the Xiao family? You have to look at her What kind of mother is mother?" The old lady was panting.
The eldest lady hurriedly stood up and apologized to the old lady, "It's the daughter-in-law who shouldn't talk too much... angered the eldest princess..."
The second and third wives got up quickly and patted the old lady on the back.
Look at the other daughters-in-law of the family, those who knelt down and pleaded guilty, and those who waited on them.
Only the eldest princess seemed out of tune with them and was extremely unfilial.
Xiao Yuzhuo shook the eldest princess's hand, and whispered: "Don't be angry, Madam, the old lady is so confused, why do you need to be as knowledgeable as her?"
After finishing speaking, she raised her voice again: "Grandmother, we don't go to the Princess Mansion, we don't go there, we stay in Xiao's house. This is the order of the Holy One. If we leave, wouldn't it be disrespectful? Of course, if The Xiao family can't tolerate us, and if they insist on driving us away, it is the Xiao family's rebellion."
Xiao Yuzhuo paused, then smiled again.
"Oh, by the way, my grandmother talked about the issue of upbringing. My aunt's mother is Empress Wende. Could it be that the queen is uneducated? Whether it is the former emperor or the current emperor, they all came from my aunt and mother. If anyone thinks My aunt has a problem with her upbringing, but you can ask the current emperor if the empress Wende didn't teach her well?"
Xiao Yuzhuo always had a faint smile on his face.
Everyone in the room couldn't help but laugh.
Today's saints do not respect the eldest princess, unlike the former emperor, and put the elder sister first in everything.
They became numb and careless, forgetting the dignity of the eldest princess.
The Holy Majesty does not respect the eldest princess, but the bones are broken and the tendons are still connected. She is born of the same mother.
If you don't pay attention, you can talk about Empress Wende. Isn't it a bad education to scold the current Holy Majesty?
Several aunts were silent like cicadas, not daring to say anything more.
The Da Furen had watched Xiao Yuzhuo remain silent at first, but she expected her temper to be tempered by suffering outside, but now it seems that her problem of not being wronged has not changed at all, has she?
The old lady coughed heavily, "Little lady, patience and patience are the most valuable things. You are good. If the elders say something to you, you are going to raise the banner of Queen Wende! If Queen Wende is here, I will be angry with you." Don't take it lightly! You don't want to insult the reputation of Empress Wende again!"
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyes and said that she was fine, so she could say what she wanted.
Although she dare not say that she is patient, she can also pretend not to hear.
But to say that her aunt is not good, that's not okay!She can be wronged and insulted, but she doesn't want to call herself so old, and A Niang still suffers such wronged because of her own reasons.
"What my grandmother taught me is that my aunt often persuades me, but I don't always have a long memory, so I make my grandmother and aunt worry about me." Xiao Yuzhuo immediately said, "As an elder, my aunt, although her words are a bit harsh , but it is also a sincere heart, and it is also my own good. Thank you, auntie, for teaching me!"
Just now she moved out Queen Wende with a proud face.
Can you say something like that in the blink of an eye?
Xiao Yuzhuo's ability to bend and stretch made the lady dumbfounded.
The old lady nodded slowly, and came down by the steps, "It's good that you understand that the elders have good intentions, and what the elders say will be weighed in the future, what should be said should not be said, there must be something in my heart." Spectrum."
The eldest lady stared, her heart seemed to be holding her breath, which made her uncomfortable.
In the end, she is the only bad guy?
Didn't the old madam say anything inappropriate?So shouldn't she say it all by herself?
Da furen blushed with anger, but had nothing to say.
Everyone bid farewell to the old lady, and left the old lady's main room one after another.
Beside the eldest lady, the little lady who mentioned Sixteen Niangs walked right beside Xiao Yuzhuo.
Xiao Yuzhuo gave her a sideways look, and said with a light smile, "Your position should have been taken by Sixteen Niang. It's a pity that she's not here now, but I can't remember how long you've been at home? Why do you look so unfamiliar? "
The little lady's face froze, after all, she was the daughter of the Xiao family, but the princess didn't even know who she was?
"Back to Princess, my younger sister is eighteenth, and she is the daughter of Dafang."
"Oh," Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, "I remember that my aunt only has sixteen and one daughters, right? When were you born?"
The little lady's face became even more ugly, and she held back for a while, "My younger sister was born by my aunt, and now she follows the eldest lady."
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled when he heard the words, "So it's a concubine, no wonder I don't know him."
The little girl's face suddenly became more ugly, and her breathing was a little heavy.
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled lightly and walked past her.
It's fine for her to keep a low profile in front of her elders, but she can't make everyone think she's easy to bully, right?
Walking out of the old lady's luxuriant courtyard, the eldest princess was still trembling with anger while holding Xiao Yuzhuo's hand.
Thinking of what Ju Xiang said, a good mood is a good medicine.
Xiao Yuzhuo quickly comforted his mother and said, "Don't be angry, Auntie, what do they like to say, will it still grow on your body?"
"Yuyu was wronged outside and just came back. They dare to embarrass you like this in front of me! In the future, if Auntie is not by your side in the future, they don't know how to bully you?!" The eldest princess As he spoke, he coughed.
These words startled Xiao Yuzhuo, "What did Aunt say? How could Aunt not be by my side?"
The eldest princess' eyes darkened, "Aniang's health is not as good as before, and it's impossible to stay with you for the rest of my life..."
"Auntie, I brought Juxiang back. Juxiang's medical skills are better than before. Ask Juxiang to treat Auntie. Auntie will live a long life! Auntie will watch me forever!" Xiao Yuzhuo's eyes became wet as he said that. .
Xiao Chongwu looked at her in the nanny's arms, "Auntie is crying, shame!"
The eldest princess laughed lightly when she heard this, "Look, even the children are laughing at you!"
The eldest princess took Chong Wu from the nanny's arms, and walked slowly down the corridor with him in her arms.
"Seeing your child now, and seeing that the King of Wu is going to marry you again, my mother is gradually at ease." The eldest princess sighed, "During your absence, my mother has thought a lot. What? It’s true to live a good life. If you don’t even have your life, so what if you have glory and wealth? A Niang doesn’t want you to have a good reputation for courtesy and virtuousness, as long as you live happily.”
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded heavily.
"The other thing is to see things clearly. When Auntie can't protect you, you have to be able to protect yourself!" The eldest princess sighed again with some worry.
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Mommy, Yuyu is no longer the child who wants you to hold her in your arms and carry her on your back. I can protect myself, and I will also protect Mommy and Daddy!"
The eldest princess only regarded her as a joke, and nodded with a smile.
"Your father is coming back soon! I'll ask the kitchen to prepare meals, and you can accompany your father to have a few glasses of fruit wine!" The eldest princess let go of her worries and said happily.
Xiao Yuzhuo finally had time to take a bath and change clothes.
Wash away tiredness.
She lay on the bed for a while.
Ask Juxiang to rest for a while, and then give A Niang a good pulse and take a look at her body.
Zhuxiang and Meixiang choose clothes for her.
"Don't be too flamboyant, just came back, keep a low profile, so as not to make some people feel unhappy when they see it." Xiao Yuzhuo thought that his parents were getting older, and it is better to have one less thing than one more thing.
Zhuxiang and Meixiang chose plain-colored clothes for her, and used very few hair ornaments on her head.
The lustrous and soft white jade hairpin, covering the head full of blue hair, is extraordinarily beautiful.
The eldest princess only felt that her daughter had been wronged by suffering outside.Tell the kitchen to cook more delicious food, to feed her precious daughter well.
The fourth master of the Xiao family who returned home saw that although his daughter looked plain in clothes, the things she used at hand were all extremely precious and exquisite.
She said that she came back in a hurry, and she couldn't prepare any decent presents for her father.
What was sent out was high-quality Hui ink worth thousands of gold.
It is light when picked up, fragrant when smelled, and cleared when rubbed.
This Hui ink was made by Xi Tinggui himself.
Xi Tinggui's craftsmanship has been passed down to his sons and grandchildren.Now the Hui ink made by Xi Tinggui is no longer available in the market, and anyone who can get a small piece will hide it rarely.
But Xiao Yuzhuo can easily come up with such a complete side!That is a good thing with a price but no market!
Seeing his beloved wife put a hearty meal into Xiao Yuzhuo's bowl, he told his daughter to make up her body.
The eyes of the fourth master of the Xiao family couldn't help but become dark.
Hui ink is a treasure. If you can take out the best of these treasures, is it true that your daughter is living poorly outside?
"Daddy eats vegetables, eat less greasy food and eat light food, and live to be like a boy when he grows old." Xiao Yuzhuo said with a smile.
The fourth master of the Xiao family looked at his daughter with more appreciation and kindness.
"You don't know, your mother, and your sisters-in-law, bullied Yuyu in front of me! You scolded her for being uneducated, scolded her for relying on her uncle at home to clean up the mess for her, and said she was a drag The reputation of your Xiao family..." When the eldest princess mentioned this matter, she lost her mind in anger.
Xiao Yuzhuo immediately served her a bowl of soup with his own hands, "Aniang, drink the soup!"
Seeing the expression of the fourth master of the Xiao family was a little embarrassed.
Xiao Yuzhuo hurriedly said: "Grandmother was trying to discipline me, but she said that Auntie was not well educated and almost scolded Empress Wende on the head. Auntie was very sad. Yuyu is clumsy, I don't know how to comfort Auntie, so I have to beg my father What a relief, aunt. This is really Yuyu's mess, and it's all up to Daddy to clean up later."
Xiao Yuzhuo put down the bowl and chopsticks, got up and kissed her father.
The originally dark complexion of the fourth master of the Xiao family eased a bit.
No man wants to hear his wife pointing to his nose and saying, "How about your mother, how about your sisters-in-law".
Even if father and mother have a deep relationship, they can't stand such a trial of words.
A Niang never slipped her tongue in front of her father before.
It was because of her daughter that she was so distressed that her mind was confused.
"Aniang said that Empress Wende is wrong, how can she talk to Yuyu about you and your mother? Don't take it to heart." The fourth master of the Xiao family gently shook the eldest princess's hand.
The eldest princess glanced at Xiao Yuzhuo and sighed helplessly.
The fourth master of the Xiao family looked at his daughter who had a very different temperament from before, and couldn't help but look at him even more highly.
Where did his daughter suffer outside for nothing?
It is clearly polished by suffering outside to become more rounded and translucent.
It seems that the sand has been filtered, revealing the light of gold.
During lunch, Xiao Yuzhuo had a few glasses of wine with her father.
After lunch, the eldest princess left Chong Wu to play in front of her, and said that Xiao Yuzhuo didn't need to take her away if she was tired.
She just coaxed her to sleep in her room.
Seeing that the eldest princess really likes Chongwu, she is all smiles when she sees Chongwu, and she doesn't feel hard.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't force it, the alcohol content was not high, but she was a little overwhelmed, so she went back to the room and lay down on the bamboo couch.
As soon as she lay down, Mei Xiang came back from the outside.
"Lady." Mei Xiang called softly.
"The lady is asleep." Zhuxiang said in a low voice.
Xiao Yuzhuo responded, "I'm not asleep, come in and answer."
Mei Xiang hurried in.
"Miss, the servant girl went to inquire about it. The eighteenth lady is going to grow up next year, and now there are only two girls in the long house, she and nineteenth lady. Nineteen is young, and the sixteenth lady...is not at the house. The eldest lady is going to It is possible to bring Nineteen Niang to my side to raise." Mei Xiang said.
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded when he heard the words, "So, isn't this eighteenth lady raised in the uncle's room?"
"No, in the past, when the sixteenth mother was here, she didn't ask the other sisters to be raised by the eldest lady. The eldest lady also looked down on the daughters born by the concubine, so she asked the concubine to raise them herself. The eighteenth mother wanted to take advantage of this time. Opportunity, recognize yourself under the name of Da Furen, at least you have the name of a prostitute, so you can marry better." Mei Xiang explained.
Zhu Xiang knelt aside and listened, "She is not a concubine now, she dares to make irresponsible remarks in front of the old lady?"
"Isn't it just to please the eldest lady?" Mei Xiang curled her lips.
Xiao Yuzhuo closed his eyes, "Children of poor people should start their families early, and children born to concubines should plan ahead. It's the same reason. The lower the family background, the more they want to climb high. Don't worry about her, it's good to be self-motivated. Yes, just don’t use the wrong method.”
Mei Xiang nodded and stopped talking.
But Zhu Xiang glanced outside, and said in a low voice: "My lady and Mr. Xiao Lang have been back for half a day, why didn't you see the general coming?"
Mei Xiang raised her head and glared at her, "Perhaps the general is not in Chang'an City right now, isn't he appointed by the Holy Majesty to put down the rebels?"
Xiao Yuzhuo hummed, turned over, and fell asleep face-in.
Jing Yannian is really in Chang'an City right now.
And he also heard that Xiao Yuzhuo had already entered Chang'an City.
When Xiao Yuzhuo was taken into the palace, Jing Yannian had already got the news.
He hurriedly arranged the affairs in hand, and came to Xiao's house without even taking a bite of lunch.
I never thought about it, but was blocked by the Xiao family.
The head of the Xiao family is in charge of the general affairs of the mansion.
After Shiba Niang was teased by Xiao Yuzhuo in the Weirui courtyard, she didn't think it was Xiao Yuzhuo's reminder.
On the contrary, he felt that Xiao Yuzhuo was deliberately showing off in front of her.
"Mother doesn't like her, and when she sees her, she thinks of Sixteen Niang. It's inevitable that she will be sad. I have to find a way to drive her out of Xiao's house." Eighteen Niang whispered to her maid as she went to the study.
The servant girl was slightly startled, "Didn't it mean that the Holy Majesty meant that she came back to Xiao's house? The old lady can't drive her out..."
"Of course the Xiao family can't ask her to go out, she will definitely pin this rebellious person on the head of the Xiao family!" Shi Ba Niang paused slightly, and smiled softly, "But if she doesn't want to stop, she has to go out Woolen cloth?"
The maid stared, "How is that possible?"
Eighteen Niang went into the study and brought snacks and herbal tea to the brothers.
Several brothers praised her for being sensible.
"If only the daughters of my Xiao family were as well-behaved and sensible as Shiba Niang." said the eldest lady's son.
Eighteen Niang lowered her eyes and smiled, but felt a little awkward in her heart.
She is clearly better than Liu Niang in everything, but because of her bad background, she is not as good as Liu Niang when she was in the mansion.
Now that Sixteen Niang is finally gone, it's time for Sixteen Niang's daughter Glory to be given to her!
Eighteen Niang sighed sadly.
"What's the matter?" asked the brothers.
"I can bring snacks and tea to my brothers, but I don't know how to comfort my mother. Because the princess came back from outside, my mother couldn't help but think of Sixteenth Sister." Eighteen Niang sighed, "Back then, Sixteenth Sister got married. It's all settled, the house will soon be decorated with lights and festoons to marry Sixteenth Sister... It's a pity... Now that my mother is still worrying about Sixteenth Sister's life-long event, but the Princess is going to marry from the house, the sorrow in my mother's heart , There is really no one to say, nowhere to sue!"
The brothers looked at Shiba Niang, blowing on the leaves of the herbal tea and drinking it slowly.
"As a child, I can't help my mother to share her worries. I just hope that there will be fewer things that worry my mother." Shiba Niang suddenly blessed her brothers, "Shiba Niang is very light-hearted, and I ask my brothers to do me a favor."
"Good sister, tell me, if you share the mother's worries, that's what the brothers should do." Her brothers said.
"I just hope that my brothers can leave a few people at the door, and tell them not to let King Wu come in to meet the princess." Eighteen Niang said in a low voice, "Before they get married, men and women can't meet each other. Your Highness doesn't have a father, he was born in a poor family, and he doesn't know how to be polite. If the Xiao family becomes their private meeting place, the Xiao family will be discussed by the world for nothing. I'm afraid that my mother will be even more sad when she hears about their love for concubines."
"Since you want to live in Xiao's house, you must know the etiquette and don't mess with the rules." The eldest son of the house also nodded and said.
The lords of the long room ordered people to stand at the door, if Jing Yannian didn't come, that's all.
If he comes, he will be blocked outside Xiao's house, and he will not be allowed to enter Xiao's house.
So Jing Yannian, when he wanted to see his wife and children, was blocked by the young gentlemen of the Xiao family.
This is Xiao Yuzhuo's natal family, now that Jing Yannian has the respect of King Wu, he doesn't take Xiao's family seriously.
But it's not good to make her natal family lose face.
He was not allowed to enter the door, and he did not force his way in.
The Yulin Army and the Shenwu Army are all under his command now, if he wants to force his way in, how can the gatekeepers of the Xiao family stop him?
He didn't break in, and if he forced his way in, it wouldn't look good on anyone's face.
But he didn't leave, he rode a tall horse and led a group of soldiers, waiting at the door of Xiao's house.
(End of this chapter)
"From the looks of it, it looks like it's too much worry, hurts the heart, and doesn't have a good life, so it's the root of the disease." Ju Xiang said in a low voice.
"Is there any way to recuperate and treat now?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked in a low voice.
Ju Xiang frowned, "Eldest Princess has always been in good health, and now she has time to recuperate her body, but the herbs used to recuperate her body are rare and hard to find."
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, and called Zhuxiang over, "Send a message to Lan Xue and shopkeeper Liang, and tell Guangyuan Chambers of Commerce to pay attention to it. All good medicines that can nourish and nourish the body should be sent to Chang'an City."
"The servant girl will write some herbs later, and tell them to pay more attention." Ju Xiang said.
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded in agreement.
"Yuyu, come quickly." The eldest princess called her with a smile.
Xiao Yuzhuo was about to go there, but Juxiang stretched out her hand and gently grabbed her sleeve.
She looked at Ju Xiang suspiciously.
But Juxiang said in a low voice: "Actually, no matter how good the medicinal materials are, they are just auxiliary effects. The most useful and quickest effect is to make the eldest princess feel at ease. People's spirits are not tense, and there is no worry or worry in their hearts. , all diseases will disappear naturally.”
Xiao Yuzhuo looked at the eldest princess upon hearing this.
Since she came back, the eldest princess wept excitedly at the second gate.
She was smiling all the time, now holding Chong Wu in her arms, the eldest princess was even more grinning from ear to ear.
Maybe it was because of the blood in his blood, Chongwu was also very well-behaved in the arms of the eldest princess, he took some snacks, but instead of putting them in his own mouth, they stuffed them all into the eldest princess's mouth.
It's happier to make the eldest princess happy than to win a reward.
Xiao Yuzhuo couldn't help showing a smile, the Holy Majesty told her to live in the Xiao family, although she had to watch the faces of many elders in the Xiao family and endure the unfriendliness of the sisters at home, but at least she could stay with her parents.
Being able to make the parents who miss her and love her wholeheartedly happy is also a little bit of the duty of being a child.
It's all right for her to occupy the body of the princess, and if she doesn't do her filial piety for her, I'm afraid God won't see it, right?
Seeing that Chongwu actually climbed onto the back of the eldest princess, she asked the eldest princess to play with him on her back.
Xiao Yuzhuo hurried forward, "Come down quickly, you are already three years old now! You are so heavy, isn't grandma tired of carrying you?"
Xiao Chongwu pouted and was about to come down.
The eldest princess dragged his little butt, "Grandmother is not tired! What do you weigh so much? Your mother is five or six years old, and grandma will carry her on her back!"
Xiao Chongwu immediately looked at his mother provocatively, "Shame! Shame, mother!"
Xiao Yuzhuo felt both distressed and helpless.
Three generations of grandparents and grandchildren are laughing and playing.
Suddenly, a servant girl said from the outside: "Ma'am invited the princess to come over, saying that the elders have been waiting in the Weirui courtyard for a long time, and they are all looking forward to seeing the princess!"
"I was only concerned about my daughter's happiness, but I forgot to ask you to greet the elders." The eldest princess got up and said, "Go, I will accompany you there."
The sage asked Xiao Yuzhuo to return to Xiao's house to be married.
Whether the Xiao family is willing or not, this is an imperial decree and cannot be disobeyed.
Ask Xiao Yuzhuo to go over, how can it be so simple to meet?
The person who was not in a good mood naturally wanted to show Xiao Yuzhuo's face when he said hello.
The eldest princess felt sorry for her daughter and went with her because she wanted to support her.
Xiao Yuzhuo hurriedly comforted her, "Don't go, Aunt, I'll just go and pay respects to the elders. The Weirui Courtyard is my grandmother's yard, and my grandmother is here, so no one will bully me."
The eldest princess sighed and shook her head slightly, "Let me go with you."
Seeing that the eldest princess insisted, Xiao Yuzhuo had no choice but to help her go to the Weirui courtyard together.
A lot of people gathered in the Weirui courtyard.
It was very lively inside and outside the house.
The young lady of the Xiao family was picking up stones or pulling grass leaves in the yard.
Those naughty ones who wanted to pick flowers were immediately beaten by the foster mother, "Flowers in the old lady's yard are not allowed to be picked! Our Xiao family values filial piety and rules the most. Respect elders Or, never slack off!"
These words were intentionally said lukewarmly when Xiao Yuzhuo passed by.
It's like telling the little lady who wants to pick flowers.
But the eyes of nurturing mother glanced at Xiao Yuzhuo.
Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at the foster mother, this is in the eldest lady's room, probably what the eldest lady wanted someone to tell her, right?
She curled her lips and smiled slightly, "Mom, walk slowly, be careful where you step."
Xiao Yuzhuo helped the eldest princess into the main room, but there were quite a few people sitting in the main room.
Grandmother, three aunts, and several cousins who are not young, and the aunts who have the face are all in the room.
But the house is very quiet, not a bird is heard, even the slight sound of grandmother sipping can be heard.
I haven't seen you for more than two years. The Xiao family's tutoring is so strict?
Xiao Yuzhuo helped the eldest princess to sit aside, she hurried to the middle of the room, knelt down and kowtowed to her grandmother.
"Yu Niang is finally able to come back, kowtow to grandma, wishing grandma good health and free from all diseases." Xiao Yuzhuo kowtowed.
He got up again and greeted his aunts, "Greetings to my aunts, may my aunts have no worries and everything goes smoothly."
The old lady hummed, and the uncles raised their hands to wake her up.
The old lady asked: "Eleventh Mother has already married, and now the young ladies who are about your age have already married and become mothers, and the eldest in the family is Eighteenth Mother, and now she is about to reach her age. You..."
The old lady turned her face sideways, looked at Xiao Chongwu who was held in the arms of the eldest princess, and couldn't help frowning.
"What do you mean when you come back with a child?"
Xiao Yuzhuo pursed her lips, she was eleventh in the Xiao family, but the Xiao family seldom called her eleventh.Now coming back from the outside, the treatment is different.
The old lady asked like this, it seems that the imperial decree has not yet arrived, the Holy Majesty only sent someone to pass the oral order?
Is it true that the old lady doesn't know the Holy Spirit's dictation?Or was he deliberately trying to embarrass her in public?
Xiao Yuzhuo sighed and did not explain yet.
The eldest lady suddenly said, "The old lady doesn't know, the majesty told someone that the princess was picked up from outside. Didn't he retire General Jing earlier? Naturally, it is not suitable to live in Wu Wang's mansion as soon as he comes back." , who lives here, whose name is not right, is it a wife or a concubine?"
The people who were sitting in the room at first, heard the phrase "wives or concubines", they all covered their mouths and sniggered.
The eldest princess frowned and coughed heavily.
But now her status in the Xiao family is obviously not as good as before. The wives and concubines of the Xiao family are not afraid of her, and they don't sell her face.
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled slightly, "Yes, a wife and a concubine, you can't mess around. The Holy Majesty told me to live in my mother's house. He just waited for His Highness King Wu to put down the rebel army and marry me back in a good and prosperous way, so as not to cause our mother and son to suffer. People discuss."
Seeing her being ridiculed, the eldest lady was not ashamed, but admitted it openly, staring at her for a while, without saying a word.
"Since it is arranged by the Holy Majesty, then you can live in the Xiao family well, but you must restrain your temper in the past. The people of Chang'an said that the Xiao family can't raise their daughter, but they have said it for many years!" The old lady said in a deep voice.
The Xiao family has been talked about for many years, why didn't they dare to say this in front of her, in front of the eldest princess?
Don't you think that she is easy to bully now, and mother is easy to bully?
Xiao Yuzhuo was silent for a moment, then smiled slightly, "Grandmother, don't worry, all the daughters of the Xiao family marry well, and there is no one who can't get married? Even I, who is divorced, can marry again in a good way , let alone the other sisters."
"That's where the Xiao family's gentlemen are standing in the hall! You don't feel ashamed, but you feel proud?" The lady said with a stare.
Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at her, and suddenly thought, if Liuniang hadn't been killed by King Yue.
It's time to get married by now, maybe even conceive a child.
In addition to her two sons, Da Furen only has such a biological daughter under her knees. Now that she sees her marrying from the Xiao family again, thinking of her own daughter, it is inevitable that she will feel sad.
Xiao Yuzhuo thought that Liu Niang's confidante died early, so she didn't say anything to provoke the eldest lady.
But I saw a young lady with delicate features behind the eldest lady who suddenly touched the corner of her eyes, "Seeing the princess getting married from the mansion, I can't help but think of Sixteenth Sister, who is the same age, but Sixteenth Sister can only be with the green lantern forever." ..."
The lady snorted angrily, "It's sixteen lives that are not good, so I can't compare with others."
"Now the Xiao family still has to prepare a dowry for the princess, and put up lanterns and festoons...Maybe if I ask Miss Sixteen to come back and have a look, she will be able to figure it out..." The little lady said in a sour tone.
The eldest lady's face became more and more ugly.
Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at the little lady, Sixteen Niang was already dead.
The eldest lady said to the public that it was Sixteen Niang who didn't want to get married, and she wished to be accompanied by a green lantern in front of the Buddha, just to make her famous.
And still don't give up, don't think she died outside.
I only hope that one day I can find Liuniang and bring her back to the mansion.
That's much better reputation than the person who divorced her husband and brought her back to her mother's family.
When the eldest lady saw her, she clearly thought of her daughter.
I might miss Sixteen Niang in my heart.
That little lady pokes at the Da Furen's heart with every sentence. Is this a trick to make Da Furen hate herself?
"For 16 years, I have been devoted to pure filial piety. I would rather delay my own happiness than my own future. I would like to pray and chant scriptures for my family in front of the Buddha. It is not like some people who act recklessly and smear the reputation of the Xiao family. They only care about their own happiness and never miss their families. How to stand tall in front of others, relying on the family's father and brother being officials in the court, relying on the family's aura to show off their might, and not being grateful in front of the family. Think that all of this is easy for me!" Da Furen's words are poignant Scolded in people's faces.
Xiao Yuzhuo thought about Sixteen Niang's death and didn't want to argue with the eldest lady.
Most mothers love their daughters in the same way, and the eldest lady is also a poor person.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't say a word.
The eldest princess couldn't swallow this breath, "The Xiao family was afraid of being dragged back then, and I, Yuyu, didn't marry from the Xiao family. Later, the Xiao family wanted to curry favor with Yuyu and tell Yuyu to go back to her mother's house often! Are you looking down on her now? The Xiao family can’t tolerate us, we just don’t live in the Xiao family! Can’t Aniang support you? Let’s go back to the eldest princess mansion right now!”
The eldest princess got up and pulled Xiao Yuzhuo, and walked out.
The old lady grabbed the crutches and fell down.
The cane hit the ground with a muffled bang.
It's like hitting someone's head.
The room fell silent for a moment.
"Let's go, why don't you go? Go back to the eldest princess mansion, are you planning to ask the fourth master of the Xiao family to marry you back again? The daughter of the Xiao family is not well-bred. What does it have to do with the Xiao family? You have to look at her What kind of mother is mother?" The old lady was panting.
The eldest lady hurriedly stood up and apologized to the old lady, "It's the daughter-in-law who shouldn't talk too much... angered the eldest princess..."
The second and third wives got up quickly and patted the old lady on the back.
Look at the other daughters-in-law of the family, those who knelt down and pleaded guilty, and those who waited on them.
Only the eldest princess seemed out of tune with them and was extremely unfilial.
Xiao Yuzhuo shook the eldest princess's hand, and whispered: "Don't be angry, Madam, the old lady is so confused, why do you need to be as knowledgeable as her?"
After finishing speaking, she raised her voice again: "Grandmother, we don't go to the Princess Mansion, we don't go there, we stay in Xiao's house. This is the order of the Holy One. If we leave, wouldn't it be disrespectful? Of course, if The Xiao family can't tolerate us, and if they insist on driving us away, it is the Xiao family's rebellion."
Xiao Yuzhuo paused, then smiled again.
"Oh, by the way, my grandmother talked about the issue of upbringing. My aunt's mother is Empress Wende. Could it be that the queen is uneducated? Whether it is the former emperor or the current emperor, they all came from my aunt and mother. If anyone thinks My aunt has a problem with her upbringing, but you can ask the current emperor if the empress Wende didn't teach her well?"
Xiao Yuzhuo always had a faint smile on his face.
Everyone in the room couldn't help but laugh.
Today's saints do not respect the eldest princess, unlike the former emperor, and put the elder sister first in everything.
They became numb and careless, forgetting the dignity of the eldest princess.
The Holy Majesty does not respect the eldest princess, but the bones are broken and the tendons are still connected. She is born of the same mother.
If you don't pay attention, you can talk about Empress Wende. Isn't it a bad education to scold the current Holy Majesty?
Several aunts were silent like cicadas, not daring to say anything more.
The Da Furen had watched Xiao Yuzhuo remain silent at first, but she expected her temper to be tempered by suffering outside, but now it seems that her problem of not being wronged has not changed at all, has she?
The old lady coughed heavily, "Little lady, patience and patience are the most valuable things. You are good. If the elders say something to you, you are going to raise the banner of Queen Wende! If Queen Wende is here, I will be angry with you." Don't take it lightly! You don't want to insult the reputation of Empress Wende again!"
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyes and said that she was fine, so she could say what she wanted.
Although she dare not say that she is patient, she can also pretend not to hear.
But to say that her aunt is not good, that's not okay!She can be wronged and insulted, but she doesn't want to call herself so old, and A Niang still suffers such wronged because of her own reasons.
"What my grandmother taught me is that my aunt often persuades me, but I don't always have a long memory, so I make my grandmother and aunt worry about me." Xiao Yuzhuo immediately said, "As an elder, my aunt, although her words are a bit harsh , but it is also a sincere heart, and it is also my own good. Thank you, auntie, for teaching me!"
Just now she moved out Queen Wende with a proud face.
Can you say something like that in the blink of an eye?
Xiao Yuzhuo's ability to bend and stretch made the lady dumbfounded.
The old lady nodded slowly, and came down by the steps, "It's good that you understand that the elders have good intentions, and what the elders say will be weighed in the future, what should be said should not be said, there must be something in my heart." Spectrum."
The eldest lady stared, her heart seemed to be holding her breath, which made her uncomfortable.
In the end, she is the only bad guy?
Didn't the old madam say anything inappropriate?So shouldn't she say it all by herself?
Da furen blushed with anger, but had nothing to say.
Everyone bid farewell to the old lady, and left the old lady's main room one after another.
Beside the eldest lady, the little lady who mentioned Sixteen Niangs walked right beside Xiao Yuzhuo.
Xiao Yuzhuo gave her a sideways look, and said with a light smile, "Your position should have been taken by Sixteen Niang. It's a pity that she's not here now, but I can't remember how long you've been at home? Why do you look so unfamiliar? "
The little lady's face froze, after all, she was the daughter of the Xiao family, but the princess didn't even know who she was?
"Back to Princess, my younger sister is eighteenth, and she is the daughter of Dafang."
"Oh," Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, "I remember that my aunt only has sixteen and one daughters, right? When were you born?"
The little lady's face became even more ugly, and she held back for a while, "My younger sister was born by my aunt, and now she follows the eldest lady."
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled when he heard the words, "So it's a concubine, no wonder I don't know him."
The little girl's face suddenly became more ugly, and her breathing was a little heavy.
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled lightly and walked past her.
It's fine for her to keep a low profile in front of her elders, but she can't make everyone think she's easy to bully, right?
Walking out of the old lady's luxuriant courtyard, the eldest princess was still trembling with anger while holding Xiao Yuzhuo's hand.
Thinking of what Ju Xiang said, a good mood is a good medicine.
Xiao Yuzhuo quickly comforted his mother and said, "Don't be angry, Auntie, what do they like to say, will it still grow on your body?"
"Yuyu was wronged outside and just came back. They dare to embarrass you like this in front of me! In the future, if Auntie is not by your side in the future, they don't know how to bully you?!" The eldest princess As he spoke, he coughed.
These words startled Xiao Yuzhuo, "What did Aunt say? How could Aunt not be by my side?"
The eldest princess' eyes darkened, "Aniang's health is not as good as before, and it's impossible to stay with you for the rest of my life..."
"Auntie, I brought Juxiang back. Juxiang's medical skills are better than before. Ask Juxiang to treat Auntie. Auntie will live a long life! Auntie will watch me forever!" Xiao Yuzhuo's eyes became wet as he said that. .
Xiao Chongwu looked at her in the nanny's arms, "Auntie is crying, shame!"
The eldest princess laughed lightly when she heard this, "Look, even the children are laughing at you!"
The eldest princess took Chong Wu from the nanny's arms, and walked slowly down the corridor with him in her arms.
"Seeing your child now, and seeing that the King of Wu is going to marry you again, my mother is gradually at ease." The eldest princess sighed, "During your absence, my mother has thought a lot. What? It’s true to live a good life. If you don’t even have your life, so what if you have glory and wealth? A Niang doesn’t want you to have a good reputation for courtesy and virtuousness, as long as you live happily.”
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded heavily.
"The other thing is to see things clearly. When Auntie can't protect you, you have to be able to protect yourself!" The eldest princess sighed again with some worry.
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Mommy, Yuyu is no longer the child who wants you to hold her in your arms and carry her on your back. I can protect myself, and I will also protect Mommy and Daddy!"
The eldest princess only regarded her as a joke, and nodded with a smile.
"Your father is coming back soon! I'll ask the kitchen to prepare meals, and you can accompany your father to have a few glasses of fruit wine!" The eldest princess let go of her worries and said happily.
Xiao Yuzhuo finally had time to take a bath and change clothes.
Wash away tiredness.
She lay on the bed for a while.
Ask Juxiang to rest for a while, and then give A Niang a good pulse and take a look at her body.
Zhuxiang and Meixiang choose clothes for her.
"Don't be too flamboyant, just came back, keep a low profile, so as not to make some people feel unhappy when they see it." Xiao Yuzhuo thought that his parents were getting older, and it is better to have one less thing than one more thing.
Zhuxiang and Meixiang chose plain-colored clothes for her, and used very few hair ornaments on her head.
The lustrous and soft white jade hairpin, covering the head full of blue hair, is extraordinarily beautiful.
The eldest princess only felt that her daughter had been wronged by suffering outside.Tell the kitchen to cook more delicious food, to feed her precious daughter well.
The fourth master of the Xiao family who returned home saw that although his daughter looked plain in clothes, the things she used at hand were all extremely precious and exquisite.
She said that she came back in a hurry, and she couldn't prepare any decent presents for her father.
What was sent out was high-quality Hui ink worth thousands of gold.
It is light when picked up, fragrant when smelled, and cleared when rubbed.
This Hui ink was made by Xi Tinggui himself.
Xi Tinggui's craftsmanship has been passed down to his sons and grandchildren.Now the Hui ink made by Xi Tinggui is no longer available in the market, and anyone who can get a small piece will hide it rarely.
But Xiao Yuzhuo can easily come up with such a complete side!That is a good thing with a price but no market!
Seeing his beloved wife put a hearty meal into Xiao Yuzhuo's bowl, he told his daughter to make up her body.
The eyes of the fourth master of the Xiao family couldn't help but become dark.
Hui ink is a treasure. If you can take out the best of these treasures, is it true that your daughter is living poorly outside?
"Daddy eats vegetables, eat less greasy food and eat light food, and live to be like a boy when he grows old." Xiao Yuzhuo said with a smile.
The fourth master of the Xiao family looked at his daughter with more appreciation and kindness.
"You don't know, your mother, and your sisters-in-law, bullied Yuyu in front of me! You scolded her for being uneducated, scolded her for relying on her uncle at home to clean up the mess for her, and said she was a drag The reputation of your Xiao family..." When the eldest princess mentioned this matter, she lost her mind in anger.
Xiao Yuzhuo immediately served her a bowl of soup with his own hands, "Aniang, drink the soup!"
Seeing the expression of the fourth master of the Xiao family was a little embarrassed.
Xiao Yuzhuo hurriedly said: "Grandmother was trying to discipline me, but she said that Auntie was not well educated and almost scolded Empress Wende on the head. Auntie was very sad. Yuyu is clumsy, I don't know how to comfort Auntie, so I have to beg my father What a relief, aunt. This is really Yuyu's mess, and it's all up to Daddy to clean up later."
Xiao Yuzhuo put down the bowl and chopsticks, got up and kissed her father.
The originally dark complexion of the fourth master of the Xiao family eased a bit.
No man wants to hear his wife pointing to his nose and saying, "How about your mother, how about your sisters-in-law".
Even if father and mother have a deep relationship, they can't stand such a trial of words.
A Niang never slipped her tongue in front of her father before.
It was because of her daughter that she was so distressed that her mind was confused.
"Aniang said that Empress Wende is wrong, how can she talk to Yuyu about you and your mother? Don't take it to heart." The fourth master of the Xiao family gently shook the eldest princess's hand.
The eldest princess glanced at Xiao Yuzhuo and sighed helplessly.
The fourth master of the Xiao family looked at his daughter who had a very different temperament from before, and couldn't help but look at him even more highly.
Where did his daughter suffer outside for nothing?
It is clearly polished by suffering outside to become more rounded and translucent.
It seems that the sand has been filtered, revealing the light of gold.
During lunch, Xiao Yuzhuo had a few glasses of wine with her father.
After lunch, the eldest princess left Chong Wu to play in front of her, and said that Xiao Yuzhuo didn't need to take her away if she was tired.
She just coaxed her to sleep in her room.
Seeing that the eldest princess really likes Chongwu, she is all smiles when she sees Chongwu, and she doesn't feel hard.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't force it, the alcohol content was not high, but she was a little overwhelmed, so she went back to the room and lay down on the bamboo couch.
As soon as she lay down, Mei Xiang came back from the outside.
"Lady." Mei Xiang called softly.
"The lady is asleep." Zhuxiang said in a low voice.
Xiao Yuzhuo responded, "I'm not asleep, come in and answer."
Mei Xiang hurried in.
"Miss, the servant girl went to inquire about it. The eighteenth lady is going to grow up next year, and now there are only two girls in the long house, she and nineteenth lady. Nineteen is young, and the sixteenth lady...is not at the house. The eldest lady is going to It is possible to bring Nineteen Niang to my side to raise." Mei Xiang said.
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded when he heard the words, "So, isn't this eighteenth lady raised in the uncle's room?"
"No, in the past, when the sixteenth mother was here, she didn't ask the other sisters to be raised by the eldest lady. The eldest lady also looked down on the daughters born by the concubine, so she asked the concubine to raise them herself. The eighteenth mother wanted to take advantage of this time. Opportunity, recognize yourself under the name of Da Furen, at least you have the name of a prostitute, so you can marry better." Mei Xiang explained.
Zhu Xiang knelt aside and listened, "She is not a concubine now, she dares to make irresponsible remarks in front of the old lady?"
"Isn't it just to please the eldest lady?" Mei Xiang curled her lips.
Xiao Yuzhuo closed his eyes, "Children of poor people should start their families early, and children born to concubines should plan ahead. It's the same reason. The lower the family background, the more they want to climb high. Don't worry about her, it's good to be self-motivated. Yes, just don’t use the wrong method.”
Mei Xiang nodded and stopped talking.
But Zhu Xiang glanced outside, and said in a low voice: "My lady and Mr. Xiao Lang have been back for half a day, why didn't you see the general coming?"
Mei Xiang raised her head and glared at her, "Perhaps the general is not in Chang'an City right now, isn't he appointed by the Holy Majesty to put down the rebels?"
Xiao Yuzhuo hummed, turned over, and fell asleep face-in.
Jing Yannian is really in Chang'an City right now.
And he also heard that Xiao Yuzhuo had already entered Chang'an City.
When Xiao Yuzhuo was taken into the palace, Jing Yannian had already got the news.
He hurriedly arranged the affairs in hand, and came to Xiao's house without even taking a bite of lunch.
I never thought about it, but was blocked by the Xiao family.
The head of the Xiao family is in charge of the general affairs of the mansion.
After Shiba Niang was teased by Xiao Yuzhuo in the Weirui courtyard, she didn't think it was Xiao Yuzhuo's reminder.
On the contrary, he felt that Xiao Yuzhuo was deliberately showing off in front of her.
"Mother doesn't like her, and when she sees her, she thinks of Sixteen Niang. It's inevitable that she will be sad. I have to find a way to drive her out of Xiao's house." Eighteen Niang whispered to her maid as she went to the study.
The servant girl was slightly startled, "Didn't it mean that the Holy Majesty meant that she came back to Xiao's house? The old lady can't drive her out..."
"Of course the Xiao family can't ask her to go out, she will definitely pin this rebellious person on the head of the Xiao family!" Shi Ba Niang paused slightly, and smiled softly, "But if she doesn't want to stop, she has to go out Woolen cloth?"
The maid stared, "How is that possible?"
Eighteen Niang went into the study and brought snacks and herbal tea to the brothers.
Several brothers praised her for being sensible.
"If only the daughters of my Xiao family were as well-behaved and sensible as Shiba Niang." said the eldest lady's son.
Eighteen Niang lowered her eyes and smiled, but felt a little awkward in her heart.
She is clearly better than Liu Niang in everything, but because of her bad background, she is not as good as Liu Niang when she was in the mansion.
Now that Sixteen Niang is finally gone, it's time for Sixteen Niang's daughter Glory to be given to her!
Eighteen Niang sighed sadly.
"What's the matter?" asked the brothers.
"I can bring snacks and tea to my brothers, but I don't know how to comfort my mother. Because the princess came back from outside, my mother couldn't help but think of Sixteenth Sister." Eighteen Niang sighed, "Back then, Sixteenth Sister got married. It's all settled, the house will soon be decorated with lights and festoons to marry Sixteenth Sister... It's a pity... Now that my mother is still worrying about Sixteenth Sister's life-long event, but the Princess is going to marry from the house, the sorrow in my mother's heart , There is really no one to say, nowhere to sue!"
The brothers looked at Shiba Niang, blowing on the leaves of the herbal tea and drinking it slowly.
"As a child, I can't help my mother to share her worries. I just hope that there will be fewer things that worry my mother." Shiba Niang suddenly blessed her brothers, "Shiba Niang is very light-hearted, and I ask my brothers to do me a favor."
"Good sister, tell me, if you share the mother's worries, that's what the brothers should do." Her brothers said.
"I just hope that my brothers can leave a few people at the door, and tell them not to let King Wu come in to meet the princess." Eighteen Niang said in a low voice, "Before they get married, men and women can't meet each other. Your Highness doesn't have a father, he was born in a poor family, and he doesn't know how to be polite. If the Xiao family becomes their private meeting place, the Xiao family will be discussed by the world for nothing. I'm afraid that my mother will be even more sad when she hears about their love for concubines."
"Since you want to live in Xiao's house, you must know the etiquette and don't mess with the rules." The eldest son of the house also nodded and said.
The lords of the long room ordered people to stand at the door, if Jing Yannian didn't come, that's all.
If he comes, he will be blocked outside Xiao's house, and he will not be allowed to enter Xiao's house.
So Jing Yannian, when he wanted to see his wife and children, was blocked by the young gentlemen of the Xiao family.
This is Xiao Yuzhuo's natal family, now that Jing Yannian has the respect of King Wu, he doesn't take Xiao's family seriously.
But it's not good to make her natal family lose face.
He was not allowed to enter the door, and he did not force his way in.
The Yulin Army and the Shenwu Army are all under his command now, if he wants to force his way in, how can the gatekeepers of the Xiao family stop him?
He didn't break in, and if he forced his way in, it wouldn't look good on anyone's face.
But he didn't leave, he rode a tall horse and led a group of soldiers, waiting at the door of Xiao's house.
