Chapter 14: The Uninvited Guest (4)
Although Pei Shi had been chatting with Mrs. Chang, Yu Guang paid attention to his daughter, who was always in trouble. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info saw her daughter's look, and her heart also doubled her good impression of this in-laws, who can come up with such things, and her daughter will not suffer a loss when she marries.
She didn't know that this was the only good thing that Chang's swollen face and fat man picked out from his body.
"That's very grateful, Madame. Pei Shi smiled and ordered Feiwen to accept the hairpin.
"Family, why say such things. I think the eldest girl is getting more and more picky, and it's thanks to our family that we settled down first, otherwise I don't know how many matchmakers have broken through the threshold to ask for marriage. "Although Chang is mean, he is also a veteran when he talks about the scene.
Pei's mother and daughter were happy to hear it, and you and I chatted word by word.
At the other end, Münse Curie.
Yiying has already finished directing, and her own things - ironing the clothes worn by Lu Li, tidying up the makeup box and other things have also been done. In her spare time, she picked up the needle and thread, thinking about what to do next as she did it.
According to her, it is better to return to the Xue family sooner rather than later, the decline of the Xue family in the previous life is the result of the wall falling down and everyone pushing it, and she doesn't know how many enemies there are in the open and in the dark, she must return to that position as soon as possible to have the ability to observe and stop. Mother's injury, brother's affair, and the conflict between the East and West are all thorny and big problems, and you can't do anything if you stay here.
And she didn't have the slightest need to stay here for long. After seeing the faces of the Zhao family clearly, she didn't stay here for a minute longer, and she felt uncomfortable.
It's just that the main problem now is the safety of his adoptive father and the way to escape from the Zhao family. That incident involves a struggle for imperial power, and she must not be underestimated, and must ensure the safety of her adoptive father.
And the most direct way she thought of to go back to the Xue family was to go to Anping to find Mama Xu, after all, the threshold of the Xue family in the capital is extremely high, and it is impossible for a family like the Zhao family to even see the eldest princess, so how can she get into it as a little maid?
Therefore, she only needs to follow the trajectory of her previous life, but in her previous life, she had a chance encounter, but in this life, she needs to pretend to be a chance encounter and quietly let her discover the birthmark.
But what worries her is that her adoptive father and adoptive mother are all slaves in the Zhao family, if she flees rashly and is regarded as a fugitive slave, I am afraid that it will inevitably affect the family.
The other is that she must find out the relationship between her adoptive mother and the case of her disappearance back then, and untie the knot in her adoptive mother's heart, otherwise even if she successfully recognizes her relatives, but her adoptive mother still does stupid things with the same thoughts as in her previous life, she will really die of guilt.
Therefore, she still has to stay in the Zhao family for a few days, and after sorting out all this, she will return to her family. But there is one principle that is certain, she will do her best to avoid the Xu family's cadres and others, and will never have anything to do with them!
She had a plan in mind, and her mood was much lighter. saw that it was already noon, and Zhao Qingyi had no sign of coming back. So he sent a third-class maid Yin'er to Jifutang to take a look.
Yin'er was quick and quick-witted, and she quickly trotted back and replied, "...... said that Mrs. Chang had left Mrs. Chang for dinner, and Miss was also on the side to accompany ......"
Yiying nodded, Pei and Zhao Qingyi were also very attentive to Chang at this time in their previous lives, but when she got married and knew the truth, it would be very different.
She instructed the maids and sons to go back to their rooms to eat, and she quickly ran out of lunch, thinking that there was nothing to do, so she went to the front yard to find her adoptive father.
She was not in a hurry, and enjoyed the scenery on both sides of the road as she walked. There are all kinds of flowers planted on both sides of the road, such as moon flowers, peach blossoms, peonies, begonias, magnolias, wooden pens, bauhinia, forsythia, lilacs, wisteria, but some of them are in season and are in full bloom, and some have withered and lost their brilliance. Although there are many kinds of flowers, there is a sense of uneven dissonance, which forcibly subtracts many colors from this beauty.
She couldn't help but think of the Xue family's West Mansion, where her mother, Princess Min Yuan, lived. Mother loves bamboo, and there are bamboos planted on both sides of the road leading to her residence, including the usual green bamboo, gang bamboo, noble concubine bamboo, and rare peach silk bamboo, gold inlaid bamboo, dragon bamboo, etc., all transplanted from all over the world, but the eyes are full of vitality, without a trace of decline. There is also a lake not far away, the weeping willows on both sides of the bank are clearly visible, a gust of wind blows, the green shadow is swaying, and I only feel relaxed and happy.
She smiled and sighed, saying that she was a bamboo in her chest and strategized, and she was not very good at thinking about her family. In the Zhao family, I feel that everything is inferior to my own home.
I felt nostalgic all the way, and unconsciously arrived in front of the weeping flower door.
Two mothers-in-law stood guard in front of the door. One was dozing off, and the other was a little out of energy. It's no wonder that the heat hasn't dissipated yet, and the noon is really sleepy.
Yiying stepped forward and patted her mother-in-law, who was not in good spirits. The mother-in-law came to her senses instantly, a little panicked, and when she saw that it was Yiying, she breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest and said, "Miss Zhilan, you scared my mother-in-law to death." Yiying said funny: "Mom is not good at errands, but complains about me as a passerby?"
Seeing that there was no anger in her words, the mother-in-law gradually calmed down, and said with a shy face: "You don't remember the villain, don't worry about me." But you're on an errand with the big girl, how did you get here?"
"Do you know where my dad went?" said Yi Ying, back to business.
"Oh, Steward Zhou, in the morning, I saw him call some guards and a few little stewards to talk, and after talking for a while, I think it will be scattered, probably eat in the upside-down room. The mother-in-law thought about it for a moment and replied with a smile.
Summoning the guards and the little stewards? Could it be that Master Zhao had already made a decision? So quickly, nine times out of ten, it was the result she expected.
She thanked her mother-in-law, stepped out of the weeping flower door, and then turned around and reminded kindly: "The wife of the in-laws hasn't left yet, don't doze off anymore, it's not easy to fool your wife in front of outsiders." Then he went to the inverted room.
The woman hurriedly called her companion up and relayed those words, and both of them were a little afraid, but they also came to their senses and began to work on errands.
Yi Ying entered a room in the inverted seat room, and she remembered that her adoptive father had worked here in her previous life. Sure enough, as soon as I entered, I saw my adoptive father cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, as if he had just finished lunch.
Zhou Chi was a little surprised when he saw her coming, "Lan'er, why are you here?"
"Mrs. Chang left Mrs. Chang to eat, and the eldest girl accompanied her, and she hasn't come back yet, so I'll come over to see how my father's affairs are doing. Yi Ying smiled.
Zhou Chi willed, "...... The lord has already decided", he paused, and said, "This time the goods will be delivered." ”
Yiying couldn't help but hold her forehead, and sure enough, there was no difference from what she guessed. The Zhao family is the best. Seeing that the situation was not good, Lord Zhao directly agreed with the prince, Pei's lifelong pursuit of killing, Zhao Qingyi regarded the concubine as a flood beast, and self-exterminated......
Fortunately, my adoptive father's life was saved. But she suddenly felt a little guilty, feeling very sorry for her cousin, the third prince, everyone was so miserable, and she indirectly helped the prince step on him...... She couldn't help but kowtow a few times to the future emperor in her heart, and said in her heart, a chance to show her face in exchange for dozens of lives, the Holy Lord, you are a Ming Jun, you must not be counted......
She simply asked the ins and outs again, and asked her adoptive father not to mention this matter to the outside again, Zhou Chi also understood the severity, the two said a few words, and Yiying was ready to go back.
At this time, there was a commotion outside. The woman's laughter, the woman's flattery, mixed with the horse's low chirp and the sound of the horse's hooves, entered the inverted room. Yiying's face changed.
"Mrs. Chang thinks it is necessary to go back, so you should go back earlier. Zhou Chi immediately reacted and admonished.
Yi Ying nodded woodenly, and his left and right feet fell, but he seemed to be one foot deep and one foot shallow, and his center of gravity was a little unstable.
She entered the door of the hanging flower lightly, and the two mothers-in-law whispered their gratitude, but she ignored it. Stepping into the corridor and about to turn, she couldn't help but glance back.
Outside the gate, Chang said goodbye to Pei with a smile. On his face, he was as arrogant and self-esteem as ever, but he couldn't hide his old jealousy, and his eyes were shrewd and mean for thousands of years. And another person who almost broke her desire to survive in her previous life stood beside her mother gently at the moment, with a shy expression, like an ordinary boudoir woman.
Yiying stood there and watched for a while, then turned around with a smile and returned to Ming Seju.
