Chapter 67
......
The atmosphere in this room was peaceful and calm, but when it came to Zhou's place, the atmosphere took a sharp turn.
She returned to the Jinwu Courtyard, angrily smashed a glass-embedded Yang Taijun Meitu screen, and then knocked down the Duobao Pavilion in the room, and the jade jade and colored porcelain vases on the top fell down, and the pieces were messily paved on the ground.
When Xi Feng came in, Zhou had not yet smashed his anger, and was about to push another glass screen in the room, so he hurriedly shouted and rushed over to stop her.
"Have you forgotten that this is the first time that the head of the family found the craftsmen in the Northland, and finally let them make a birthday gift that took half a year to send? If this is all smashed, then how distressed you should be when you think about it!"
Zhou pulled his arm from her arms with a calm face.
"Xi Feng, didn't you see the appearance of Fang Cai Yan'er kneeling in front of Qingfeng Courtyard? I haven't let her suffer a little since I gave birth to her. But now, this kid actually took the initiative to run over and kneel in front of Pei Hao's door!"
She said heartbrokenly: "I was pampered and raised in a thousand ways, and I will soon marry the daughter of the prince of the dynasty as a concubine, I don't know what ecstasy soup was fed by Pei Hao, so I took the initiative to kneel in front of her door." How can you tell me to take this breath!"
"She's in a hurry to be slapped!"
Xi Feng smiled suddenly.
Of course she did. At that time, she was standing behind Zhou, and not only could she see the appearance of the young lady kneeling on the ground clearly, but also heard her words clearly. She is blaming her mother for hurting Miss Pei, blaming her for not doing this authentic thing and hurting their sisterhood!
But this, as a subordinate, it is not easy to say too much. After all, she is a descendant of the Zhou family, and she has to stand by the Zhou family no matter what.
So she just smiled, and while helping Zhou out of this chaotic house, she called her mother-in-law to come in and clean up.
Zhou took out a handkerchief to wipe away his tears.
Seeing this, Xi Feng sighed softly, and then quietly ordered someone to fetch a basin of clean water.
This is not uncommon for her.
Every time the young lady is ignorant, and when she makes Mrs. angry, she will think of the irresponsible Yan Gongzi who abandoned her when she was pregnant, and then cry sadly for a while.
"I shouldn't have given birth to her. ”
Zhou kept wiping the tears with a handkerchief: "Her father is heartless. I was so happy with him, and I took money from my family for him to study and test for his fame. But in the end, he finally got in. But he began to dislike me for being a merchant's daughter, and he didn't want to be a redundant son anymore, so he had to reconcile with me and leave the Zhou family. ”
"And Yan'er, she looks like her father. It's not that I don't know that she has a high spirit, so I have an agreement with Pei Xiang and King Huai. It was they who broke their trust first, and they obviously said at the time that the Zhou family would be their gold mountain, and they would give Yan'er a royal marriage. But what is the result? From the prince of Qin to the crown prince, they will always only consider Pei Hao. I was in a hurry to come up with such a solution. ”
Zhou's teary eyes were hazy as he looked at Xi Feng, who was busy cleaning up in the room.
"I'm doing this for her good! You say she doesn't understand my heart. Pei Liqing, as Pei Hao's father, didn't say anything, she still had to take the initiative to run through Qingfeng Courtyard to kneel? Knowing that I didn't deal with that Pei Hao, didn't she throw her mother's face on the ground and step on it?"
Hearing this, the busy Xifeng stopped.
She looked at Zhou, who was crying so much.
In fact, she can understand her feelings, but no matter how she understands, she can't imagine how much the Zhou family hates Miss Pei to make her roll off the cliff, this kind of death?
After all, she didn't do anything wrong in the matter of marrying the prince. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this matter is Pei Xiang's idea.
Miss Pei just listened to her father's advice, so she should get married.
But as a subordinate of the Zhou family, Xi Feng understands his position. She couldn't do it here, and when Zhou was uncomfortable, she rushed over to admonish her.
So she could only sigh. After thinking about it, she walked over and gave Zhou an idea.
"Madame is now the master of Pei's Mansion after all, if you see Miss Pei, you will not be happy. It just so happens that she is now at the age when she should talk about her family, so why don't she find a good partner and marry her off. ”
Xi Feng felt that this was reasonable.
Moreover, the matter of Miss Pei and Qiongyu Gongzi, although the lord ordered that the house should not be discussed. But a discerning person can also see at a glance that the relationship between the two of them is unusual. It's okay for a day or two, but if Qiongyu Gongzi stays in Pei's mansion for a long time, maybe his young lady's reputation will be affected.
If there are some ugly words at that time, even if the marriage with the prince is not yellow, but listening to these rumors in the palace every day, her life will be better?
Hearing this, Zhou's crying stopped.
"What you said is that I am also Pei Hao's mother in name. Even if it's my stepmother, I have the obligation to find her family. ”
When Zhou Shi talked about this, his face suddenly changed, and he seemed to be gearing up to make something big.
Xi Feng saw it and hurriedly went over to interrupt her thoughts.
"Madame, you can't be impulsive this time. Last time, we were lucky, the place where the accident happened was outside the city, and no one in Anjing knew the inside story. I just thought that Miss Pei was not in good health, so she went out of the city to live for a few days and was picked up. But now that Miss Pei has returned to Pei's mansion, if you don't restrain yourself and still talk about her ineffective family affairs, I'm afraid that everyone in Anjing will say that you treat your stepdaughter harshly. At that time, our family's business will be affected, and King Huai won't be able to explain it!"
Xi Feng's words made Zhou's heart freak, but she was unwilling to dispel this thought.
"Then what do you say? Could it be true that I will help her say a powerful family matter? How can I do this kind of thing, it is better to let her die of old age in Pei's mansion!"
"Oh, my lady, don't say that again!" Xi Feng patted his knees and shouted: "You are flexible in business, why did you make a mistake when you came to the back house?"
Zhou looked at her puzzled.
"What's the matter? This Pei Mansion can't afford to raise her daughter? It's that Pei Mansion can't afford to raise it, the silver Pei Liqing has taken from me in the past few years should be enough for Pei Hao to eat until the next life!"
"Of course, the silver is enough to support her daughter. ”
Xi Feng said, sighing helplessly.
"But you should also see the impact of this on our young lady!"
Zhou's face was even more confused.
"What does this have to do with Yan'er? She can't get married, so does she have to affect my Yan'er's marriage?"
Xi Feng pointed to the courtyard, where a few subordinates were cutting flower branches.
"It's not a marriage affair. It's just that Qiong Yu Gongzi lives in Pei's Mansion and has a close relationship with Miss Pei, so he can't control his mouth and go out to talk about it. If the young lady is married, the prince asks about it, suspecting that she has learned the bad appearance of Miss Pei, how do you want her to explain? Even if the prince believes her, there is no reason that she is the only concubine in the East Palace. If the side concubine goes in in the future, she will make fun of her by this matter, feeling that she is not worthy of the position of concubine, and trying to replace her. What do you think she should do?"
Speaking of this, Xi Feng let out a long sigh.
Zhou pinched the handkerchief in his hand and was silent.
"Like our Zhou family, after all, the business nationality is not as good as those nobles. Miss has been wronged, even if you want to support her, but this waist can't hold up!"
