Chapter 90
Chapter 89
I saw Mrs. Shen walking in wearing a big red butterfly and a golden tangle with flowers everywhere, and a long dress with the tail of the concubine red fawn and golden begonia. She has eyebrows and phoenix eyes, her skin is like snow, and her body is not angry and mighty.
This dress is extremely eye-catching and very picky. It is just right with the aura of Mrs. Shen’s. It seems that this kind of clothes should be worn by such a person, so that it can be so domineering and leaky.
“Second aunt.”
“A Yan, play well, these scams should be hit hard, so that they will not dare to commit them again next time!” I don’t know whether this scam is Yan Qian or Wu Qiong. Joan.
Wu Qiongqiong is here with her mother, Mrs. Wu, but Mrs. Wu is not here at the moment. Things happened too suddenly. When everyone reacted, Wu Qiongqiong had been slapped to the ground with a slap, and Mrs. Shen walked in imposingly.
When everyone saw it was Mrs. Shen’s second wife, they all evaded.
Ma Quanfang had just gone out to meet Mrs. Shen, but on the way here, the servant had already reported the situation here. As the host, she couldn’t say anything when seeing this situation, so she could only order someone to help Wu Qiongqiong up.
Wu Qiongqiong is still clamoring, “I want to go back and tell my grandfather…”
Mrs. Shen flicked her sleeves and snorted, “Hurry up and tell Wu Shangshu, what’s the matter with our town government office. You kid is ridiculous, you’re doing nothing wrong, and you’re going to give it a go. Even if you are willing to cover it up, I want to go to Wu Mansion and ask, that’s how your Wu family raised up the girls in the mansion!?”
Wu Qiongqiong’s right cheek was so swollen that he choked with horror, and then started crying. Ma Quanfang cast a look, and several servants dragged her down. Seeing that the situation was not good, Pei Jiayu shrank his neck and followed.
Mrs. Shen stepped forward quickly, grabbing Yan Yan’s hand, and then said to Shen Yiyao: “Sister, you are too sexual, but if you are a little tougher, Ah Yan will not leave such a thing on her head!”
He hugged A Yan again and felt pained: “My little A Yan, I feel so distressed for my second aunt. Even if you want to cleanse yourself, you don’t have to do it yourself. The people in the town government office still need to be afraid of bad reputation? Those who are pure are self-clean and those who are turbid, and those who have that bad mouth are willing to talk everywhere, just let them go, we are not afraid!”
Ma Quanfang smiled and said, “Looking at Mrs. Shen’s words, so many ladies present are all discerning people. At first glance, this concubine has bad intentions and wants to pour dirty water on Yan girl, and some people fear that the world will not stir up troubles. She admits it herself, so how can anyone use false information and spread right and wrong.”
It would be a little bad for the people standing by to sing a harmony if they didn’t express their opinions.
“That’s it.”
“My lady hates those who are not on the countertops. If you give two points of color, you will start a dyeing workshop. If you are good to her, she will bite you!”
“Anyway, the little wives are raised by the little wives after all!”
“These things that are not on the table are vicious and vicious.”
“And the girl from the Wu family, I have long heard that she is savage and willful, and today is an eye-opener.”
No one wants to offend the government of Zhenguo Mansion, especially to see Mrs. Shen’s second wife in such a caring support. In the future, if this person spreads out indiscriminately, first of all, he will not say anything, but will also risk offending the town government office. Therefore, even if there are those who fear that the world will not be chaotic, they will inevitably have to weigh one or two.
You must know that the people in the town government are notoriously domineering, and how can the trivial matters between the women involve the former master of his own family. At that time, it shouldn’t be the Shen family who made the move, and they would have been skinned by their master.
They are all sensible, and they change their faces very quickly. Ma Quanfang greeted everyone to move to invite Yuege, and the ladies also knew each other, all smiling, as if nothing had happened just now, and by the way, they took away their younger generation girls. After that, he secretly explained that his descendants were not allowed to mention the matter on any occasion in the future.
Someone stepped forward to lift Yan Qian, who was limp on the ground, out, and led Shen Yiyao and others to move.
The group was arranged to go to Yunxiang Xiaozhu. Yan Chan, who had been staying in the room, saw Yan Qian’s appearance, and they were shocked. Xiao Cui collapsed to the ground in fright.
Yan Ru and Yan Ling both had bad looks, and they looked weak and slightly worried. Yan Qian was thrown to the ground, and some of the servants brought by Mrs. Shen Er tied her hands and feet, gagged, and withdrew.
Needless to say, everyone knows that Yan Qian must have caused something to do so. Yan Chan had long discovered that Yan Qian had disappeared, but he didn’t dare to go out to find her, so he could only sit there blankly and secretly anxious. At this time, seeing Yan Qian so embarrassed, she was too scared to ask questions.
In the other room, Shen Yiyao was sobbing.
Mrs. Shen Er sat beside Yan Yan, watching her cry.
“Ayan, all mothers are not good, all mothers have harmed you.”
How could Shen Yiyao not understand the key in the middle, it seemed that Yan Yan was overpowering others, and the truth finally came to light. With the support of Mrs. Shen’s second wife and the help of Ma Quanfang, there will probably be no bad rumors outside in the future.
But it happened after all. Today, there are so many wives in Yiyonghou Mansion, almost all the more famous ones in Beijing have arrived. Others wouldn’t spread it indiscriminately, but for such a fierce girl, who would dare to marry and become a daughter-in-law. If one is wrong, you will do something with someone. If you hit someone, there are people who come to support you and suppress them. Then the children in the family will not be completely overwhelmed by the pressure in the future!
People who are a little more sensible would not choose such a daughter-in-law. Of course, those who want to take advantage of the power of the government of the town are indispensable, but how many of them are good? !
Shen Yiyao was heartbroken thinking about this. It was all because of her. A Yan didn’t want Yan Qian to come. If she was tougher, the old lady would not have torn her face, but she thought about it all. The juniors are always innocent, and they cause such things to happen.
In fact, Shen Yiyao is a bit stubborn. When the old lady put those words on the face, she said that as long as she refused, she would have a reputation for being vicious and unkind to the younger generation of concubines. The old lady would even take this matter as a handle. Needless to say, there is the Chen family on the sidelines, who will only tear his skin with the old lady and Sanfang, and will not be able to maintain the only harmony in the future.
In fact, her idea is very simple, and it is the usual style of every family’s wife. She pays attention to harmony. No matter what she is in private, she can at least guarantee superficial harmony. After all, A Yan said that if a kiss is imminent, it would be disadvantageous to make a fuss at home.
But what she didn’t understand was that the hatred had already been settled. The old lady was eager to add some blockage to her. Yan Qian had already hated their mother and daughter for being so stubborn. Yan Qian was more or less clever, so how could she not take the opportunity? revenge. Another Wu Qiongqiong who feared that the world would not be chaotic, just happened to get together.
Yan Yan was upset by Shen Yiyao’s crying.
In fact, she was a little bit angry with her mother at the beginning, but seeing how she showed up afterwards, she faded away that thought. Who could have predicted that this would happen, after all, it was just an accident.
“Okay, don’t cry, isn’t the matter resolved?”
“It’s a bad mother, how should you marry in the future…”
The reputation is bad, Yan Yan feels a little uncomfortable, but what has happened already, so what can he do?
“If you can’t get married, you can’t get married. I don’t care, what do you care about!”
Hearing this, Shen Yiyao cried even harder, almost fainting.
Mrs. Shen endured it for a long time, and finally couldn’t help but stand up, “I know crying now, why did you go?”
Shen Yiyao was so frightened that she stopped for a moment, and then continued to cry, but her voice was much lower.
“Who can you blame for this situation? At first, you were not allowed to marry Yan Ting at home. You were crying and shouting to marry. What did I tell you that day? This man is not suitable for you. You have a good temperament and a good heart. Little, that kind of complicated family is not suitable for you. Now you are not too young, and you have two children, but you never understand, I know you want to maintain harmony, but have you ever thought about it Aunt Pei because you were sent to Qingpu Temple, you, Ayan, and Amo can no longer maintain peace with the concubine and concubine. You should be thankful that the little thing is not poisonous enough, if it is eating food with you and your two children Putting some poison in it is enough for you to suffer.”
Mrs. Shen’s statement is a bit shocking. If you think deeply, you can find that it is extremely likely to happen.
Since Yan Qian took the initiative to admit her mistake with Shen Yiyao, although Shen Yiyao rarely pays attention to her, she has not been allowed to enter Jinseyuan and go in and out every day. It is not impossible that one day she is taking medicine while people are not paying attention. It is not that this kind of thing has never happened in the homes of large families, and once it happens, it is irreversible.
When Shen Yiyao thought of this, she couldn’t help but tremble, and she blamed herself even more.
Mrs. Shen’s words were not meant to condemn Shen Yiyao, but to awaken her. Seeing her describing the mess, her heart softened, and she warmly said, “Well, it’s not as serious as you think. How can our Shen family’s daughter worry about marrying? There are so many men in the world, there is always a suitable Ah Yan. ”
“Really?”
“You have to understand that A Yan’s character is like this. If you avoid it just because of these floating watches, you should avoid it early. Those who can marry us A Yan will only appreciate her straightforwardness. A man of character, if he marries just to marry, he might not marry him.”
Shen Yiyao understands the meaning of her sister-in-law’s words. Only if she knows how to appreciate this character, A Yan will be happy after marrying. If not, she will either live as a respectful guest, or be like her, leaving a friend who knows her face and does not know her heart. Pity the parents of the world, and there is a mother who doesn’t want her daughter to be well.
“A Yan’s marriage, I will also help to pay attention to it. The ladies in Beijing are late to marry. It is not true that they get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen. A Yan is only fourteen now.”
Only then did Shen Yiyao slow down her anxiety and calm down a bit.
Mrs. Shen gave her a complicated look and continued: “Mother, she always complains about herself. She taught you to be like this because it was for your own good. She wanted everything to be perfect, but she missed it. Human heart. It’s also that our family’s situation is different from that of other residences, that’s why you have such a soft temper. Of course, it’s not that you’re so bad, but you should understand when you can be kind and when you can’t. At this point, it is useless to think about it. In the future, you should remember that since you decide to go back to that home, you must be fully prepared, because you are not alone and you have two children.”
Shen Yiyao was shocked and ashamed: “Sister-in-law, I know.”
Mrs. Shen patted her hand and sighed: “My sister-in-law did not condemn you, but you must also understand that once a lot of things happen, there is no room for turning around. It is good for everything to go well, but if it doesn’t go well. , But also understand how to deal with it. But the concubine can no longer stay. After returning to the mansion, she will be restrained, and then married away from a distance. I have other things, so I can’t stay longer, you must be there in the mansion. There are still a lot of things. I’ll take care of it at Wu’s house, so you can go back to the house.”
Seeing this, Yan Yan whispered: “Second aunt, I caused you trouble.”
She just felt guilty for adding trouble to her grandfather’s house, but she didn’t regret doing so.
Mrs. Shen smiled freely, and touched Yan Yan’s hair, “What did the silly boy say, who have we feared in the Shen family apart from today?!”
This statement seems indifferent, but in fact it is full of domineering. The people in the town government office have always been like this. The second wife Shen has been married for so many years, and it is also contaminated with this kind of temperament.
“By the way, little girl, are you not going to go home and see your parents?”
Shen Yiyao hesitated for a while, shook her head, “It’s still not for the time being.”
Mrs. Shen gave her a meaningful look, and it seemed that this little girl was not a fool either. It’s not a fool. As for how it will develop in the future, you can only wait and see the changes.
She pondered and said, “Father asked me to tell you that Yan Ting has been very close to Xu Guifei in recent years, and he is afraid that Yan Ting will take A Yan’s marriage and get involved with the two princes of Xu Guifei. .”
“How could the prince see A Yan?” Shen Yiyao said anxiously.
She didn’t mean to think that her daughter was not worthy of the prince. In her mind, her daughter may have such shortcomings, but no one can replace it. She was referring to the princes who are very particular about choosing marriage, and every family has their special status. Weiyuan Hou Mansion is just a defeated nobleman, and how can the princes fancy it. But thinking of the peculiarities behind Yan Yan, she realized it in an instant.
“Second Sister-in-law, I understand that our family has always had family rules, and we are not allowed to have an in-law relationship with the royal family. Although A Yan is not surnamed Shen, her identity has a different meaning. I will not embarrass Dad and cause trouble for the family. “Shen Yiyao has a calm tone, but her attitude is very firm.
The Shen family naturally has the consciousness of the Shen family. Shen Yiyao has been proud of Zhen Guo Gong Mansion since she was a child, but she never understood the truth.
The town government seems to be famous, but the crisis under the monstrous power and the ultimate glory is also vaguely visible. Why the government of Zhenguo has been able to stand upright since the establishment of the dynasty and the establishment of the country? It has been deeply trusted by the emperors of all dynasties. It is nothing more than a loyalty, not only to be loyal, but also to be acquainted, but also to understand the way of life.
From the very beginning, Zhen Guo Gong Mansion adhered to the principle of being neutral, not standing in line, and only loyal to the emperors of the past dynasties. Even for the government of Zhenguo, the descendants of the Shen family in the past have sacrificed a lot. For example, the Shen family’s children are never abundant, and the Shen family has no rules for accepting concubines. Even if they accept a concubine for some reason, they are not allowed to have children. There are only a few people in each generation of the Shen family. For example, Shen Dong is at the border, why didn’t anyone in Dafang stay in the town government office? The eldest son of the second room, Shen Zhen, traveled before he was crowned, and only one young son, Shen Qi, was left in Beijing. There are also three males in Dafang. Up to now, several of them have low official positions. Except for Shen Xuan, who has been buried in the Chaohu Navy for more than ten years, he went to the Fujian Navy to serve as the commander of the Navy. The other two are both low-level. Hundred households.
This is worth thinking about. There is no such thing as glory that comes for no reason, and it pays more than outsiders imagine. The Shen family were all brought up by such precepts and deeds, including Shen Yiyao.
Mrs. Shen nodded and stood up, “Then I will go, and you will return home earlier.”
After Mrs. Shen left, Shen Yiyao took Yan Yan and the others back home.
She wanted to say goodbye in person with the handkerchief, but Ma Quanfang was still presiding over the chrysanthemum banquet in Qinxiangyuan. For this, Shen Yiyao felt very guilty, because a concubine she brought with him almost made a slap in the chrysanthemum feast held every year by the Yiyong Hou’s House.
There are so many things that happened today, and Shen Yiyao still couldn’t calm down while sitting on the carriage returning home.
After returning to the house, she didn’t go anywhere, and went to Rong’an Hall first, and Yan Qian, who was still tied up, was still in front of the old lady.
Shen Yiyao’s move not only shocked the old lady, but also shocked the Xue family and the Chen family. Both of them rushed when they received a letter from their servants.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the old lady with a gloomy face, and Shen Yiyao, who was drinking tea at the bottom, with a dark and inexplicable face. When Xue saw his daughter in the hall, he naturally saw that Yan Ru seemed to have cried, and frowned.
“Since the sister-in-law and the third younger siblings are here, I will tell you what happened today. The eldest girl and the fourth girl were present at the time, so it’s okay for you to say it?” After the Xue family and the Chen family sat down, Shen Yiyao Slowly spoke.
Yan Ru and Yan Ling glanced at Yan Qian on the ground in disgust, and then began to describe what happened today. Two narratives by one person, and a supplement, but it is also clear.
As the two talked, everyone’s complexion changed, especially the old lady’s complexion was rather ugly.
“Yan Qian was at fault, but A Yan shouldn’t beat people in public. This time, it has confirmed others’ suspicions.” There was a long silence, the old lady said.
There was a crisp sound of a tea cup placed on the table, and Shen Yiyao’s expression looked irritated, “That mother meant that Yan Qian’s arrangement of A Yan was still right. Should I, A Yan, be unlucky?”
The old lady suffocated, and said: “I didn’t mean that, I mean, it’s better to go back to the house to solve this problem, why the trouble should be known to everyone. What’s more, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and what will happen. The mansion can’t say, it must be clear from the outside, what is the reputation of our Weiyuanhou mansion?” When it came to the back, the old lady became more and more dissatisfied, and her tone hardened.
It made the old lady feel ashamed that the reputation of Weiyuan Houfu was one, and the other was that the incident involved the girl from the Pei family.
“That mother meant that this **** basin should be buckled on A Yan’s head. If you don’t pursue the instigator, you will blame the victim.” Shen Yiyao’s tone was rather uncomfortable.
Seeing her honest daughter-in-law talk back with her, the old lady’s heart is even more unbalanced, “If A Yan does nothing to choose, how can someone be bored to arrange her, why don’t I see Qian girl to arrange the big girl? !”
In fact, Yan Qian’s statement fits the old lady’s mind. In her mind, Yan Yan’s little demon is like this, and Yan Qian is right. She didn’t want Yan Qian to get ahead, but blamed all the sources on Yan Yan. It was because she was arrogant that she was discredited by the Weiyuan Hou Mansion.
Shen Yiyao smirked and stood up, “Okay, okay. I didn’t intend to let my mother be the master. The reason why I said so much is to explain one thing. Shen Yiyao’s ability is limited, but I am in charge. I can’t stop the other people in this mansion, please stop pressing people with high hats in the future, and all of them will be swept away!”
The old lady didn’t expect Shen Yiyao to behave like this, and her face became blackened, “Second wife, what do you mean?”
Shen Yiyao hardened hard, “It doesn’t mean anything. I just don’t want this kind of thing to happen again in the future. I simply hate me to my bones. Why should I be such a good person!”
Seeing Shen Yiyao’s determination so decisive, even the Xue family was in a panic and hurriedly persuaded her to get up.
Tears flickered in Shen Yiyao’s eyes, but she was determined: “Sister-in-law, the eldest girl and the fourth girl are good, just because they are helping Ah Yan today, I will not care. I know who treats me well and who treats me badly, right. If my good is good, I will reciprocate it naturally. If it is bad for me, don’t treat everyone as a fool!”
This sentence was threw out sonorously, making the old lady’s chest undulating with anger, and Chen’s complexion was extremely bad.
“Since the second girl is my concubine in the second room, she will naturally be under the supervision of my aunt. When you come, you will keep the second girl in your house until the time of marriage. No one is allowed to visit during this period.”
As soon as this statement came out, someone carried Yan Qian down.
Shen Yiyao didn’t stay anymore, and walked outside the door.
The old lady did not expect that Shen Yiyao would be so shameless, and slapped the case with angrily, “Do you still have me as a mother-in-law in your eyes?”
“If my mother thinks that my daughter-in-law is not good, write a letter of resignation and divorce me.”
As soon as this statement stunned everyone in the hall, the Xue family could understand why Shen Yiyao suddenly changed, but the Chen family was stunned and not worried. The old lady was so angry that she fell on her back and leaned on the Luohan bed.
Shen Yiyao walked out of Rong’an Hall without even turning her head.
Yan Yan, who was following her, suddenly felt better. It seems that this situation is also good?
When Yan Ting returned to the mansion in the evening, he felt a strange atmosphere in the mansion. Before he knew what was going on, he was invited to Rong’an Hall by the old lady.
The old lady was naturally crying out of the old tune again, but Yan Ting did not evasive her and made it clear that she would not stop Shen Yiyao.
The old lady was very surprised. Although the son had indicated that he would not give up Shen Yiyao before, he had never been so firm. He always hesitated. Why has it changed so much now!
Yan Ting showed a smile holding the victory, and slowly explained his plan.
“You mean you want to marry A Yan to the second prince and be the second prince concubine?”
“Now the son is only in a good relationship with Chengenhou Shizi, so he has a bright future. If he becomes the second prince’s Yueshan—” he paused, and said: “Not to mention the honor of the concubine Xu and your majesty’s preference for the second prince. , The achievements of the second prince may not be limited to just a prince.”
“You mean—”
The old lady couldn’t help trembling, she was excited, “Are you saying that there might be a future queen in our house?” In a blink of an eye, she wondered again: “Why are you so sure that the second prince must have a good eye? Yan? This kind of daughter-in-law is rude and unreasonable, but I won’t want it for me.”
“Don’t forget the town government mansion behind A Yan.”
Yan Ting was too lazy to explain to his mother that the marriage was only for the power and meaning behind it, not for that person. No matter how arrogant, after marrying as a wife, he will be honest.
It’s Zhen Guo Gong Mansion again!
Even though the old lady was very dissatisfied, she had to admit that if the second prince had expectations for Datong, the patron of the town’s prince would be even more powerful.
She was rather unhappy in her heart, and said dissatisfied: “That little thing never kissed us. You marry her, don’t cause trouble for your family.”
Yan Ting smiled contemptuously, did not speak, but the old lady knew what it meant. A small house woman fell into the hands of her husband when she married. No matter how talented and background she is, she is just like Shen Yiyao, but not now. Stay obediently in Weiyuanhou’s Mansion?
A woman is different from a man. Once she has her own child, no matter how tough she is, she will become weak, because this is her weakness. What’s more, the Weiyuan Hou Mansion is Yan Yan’s natal family. If she wants someone to support her, she will not destroy the Great Wall by herself. There are also ethical constraints. Will she dare to dare to act on her family?
Especially that is the second prince. Yan Yan and Shen Yiyao must be happy to marry the second prince. This is a great marriage!
Thinking about it this way, the old lady was even a little jealous of Yan Yan’s life!
It’s really different from other people’s lives, any good things can let that little thing stand!
“Okay, mother, you have a good rest. I will go to Jinseyuan. In a few days, your majesty will hold an autumn hunting meeting. At that time, many princes and ministers will attend, and the son is also on the list. This time the son is going to take Go with Shen Yiyao and A Yan.”
“But the second prince wants to see each other?”
Yan Ting nodded.
“The little thing has a bad temper, but his appearance is good.”
Seeing Yan Ting about to leave, the old lady called him: “You have been tighter with money recently, and your family is not rich anymore, you don’t know.”
In recent years, Yan Ting’s daily expenses have been huge. He has been with people, but he has to entertain guests for drinks and visit flower houses. Many friends, although there are advantages, disadvantages are also obvious. At least friends, you can’t be too stingy, stingy, but no one wants to be friends with you, and you will lose your dignity.
Had it not been for Yan Ting to spend too much, Weiyuan Houfu would not be so stretched.
Yan Ting nodded, but did not take this to heart.
In recent years, his mother’s mouth has become more and more wordy as he gets older and older. Whenever I see him, I will keep talking about how difficult the family is, but when Yan Ting pays the money, he will always have it.
Naturally, he didn’t know that the old lady was rushing to the future for him, and she spent countless efforts on her own. The money she had picked up on weekdays was used to supplement Yan Ting, and he used it first.
Thinking about the current situation in the mansion, the old lady was also very troubled.
She can only comfort herself with “waiting for her son to become the second prince’s father-in-law, and she will be afraid that she will have no money.” It is even more upset to think about Chen, whose housekeeper is in a mess. However, she was also happy to see the result in this situation, and when it was really out of place, she threw it to Shen Yiyao, and she must let her catch the mess at that time.
If it was the past, the old lady had great confidence in coaxing the fool to take it, but at the moment she didn’t have that confidence. But you can’t be sure, or you can’t cover it.
Throughout the night, the old lady tossed and turned, and slept in a daze until dawn was approaching. ?
