Chapter 3: The Chaotic Situation
Seeing that her young lady was looking at her with deep eyes, she was silent for a long time, and shouted softly in confusion: "Miss, are you okay?"
Qing Yao heard the other party's soft call, quickly adjusted her expression, and replied gently: "I'm fine, I'm worried." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Miss......"
Retsuki Nono shouted softly, and her eyes gradually turned red.
In this mansion, all that they have now can be easily deprived by others. Thinking of seeing her young lady lying in a pool of blood this morning, her heart was even more uncomfortable.
Qing Yao looked at the other party's appearance and sighed helplessly in her heart.
"Yue'er, come here. ”
She beckoned to Retsuki and whispered gently.
"Miss......"
In response, Recy Moon slowly stepped forward.
Qing Yao stroked the top of the other party's hair, and for this young child, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that the world was impermanent.
Xifeng on the side seemed to see what she was thinking, and stepped forward and asked softly: "Miss is unhappy in her heart, seeing that you have been like this, the slaves and maids are very worried." ”
Hearing this, Qing Yao raised her eyes and looked over. For this older woman, she had mixed feelings. The other party is not as young and foolish as Liyue, which also makes her difficult.
Xifeng saw that his young lady looked at him for a long time and stood silently.
After Qing Yao pondered for a while, she sighed leisurely and said, "I'm nothing, I just don't know what the Du family is doing today?"
After hearing the sigh of his own young lady, Xifeng naturally understood what the other party wanted to ask, so he replied truthfully: "Miss, Madame sent someone to surround our courtyard, not only can we not go out, but others are also restricted from entering. ”
"Oh......"
When Qing Yao heard this, she responded with a faint expression. After noticing the strangeness of the eldest lady, she already knew that the other party would never spread the news of her injury, and now it seems that things are really as she guessed.
"Miss, they're too bad. Not only did they not give you a doctor, but they also prevented us from going on our own. ”
After hearing the conversation between the two, Liyue muttered very dissatisfied.
Qing Yao naturally knew who they were talking about, so she could only shake her head and sigh lightly.
Although Liyue's opening seemed a little out of place, it broke the embarrassment of the mystery just now, and also made the next conversation between the three of them much smoother.
Qing Yao had been thinking about the strange behavior of the eldest lady, so she naturally asked the two people around her about the doubts in her heart.
With the ensuing conversation, the original sense of estrangement between the few people gradually disappeared.
In the mouths of the two maids, Qing Yao had a general understanding of the current situation of the Du family and the situation of the Qiu family, and her desire to leave here became more and more urgent.
"Miss, you have a good rest. ”
After tucking the corners of the quilt for her, Xifeng pulled the reluctant Lianyue and said goodbye.
Qing Yao bowed her head slightly, and responded in a low voice.
"Well, you guys go busy, I don't have to guard here. ”
Hearing this, the two maids bowed slightly and bowed, and then slowly walked out.
"Squeak......
Qing Yao listened to the sound of the door closing, and sighed deeply.
"Time is of the essence, and we have to leave before we get married. ”
She didn't want to be a tool for marriage at all, so she had to find a way to leave the Du family.
In the Du family, she still has a chance to leave, but once she arrives at the Qiu family, she will inevitably be imprisoned in the back house for the rest of her life.
Since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials, and the Qiu family is the home of the official eunuchs, which is not easy to offend, and this is still the ancient time when the parents ordered the matchmaker.
Thinking about this, Qing Yao couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Why did the people of the Great Lady come here?"
She muttered to herself, very strange about the other party's behavior.
Because the eldest lady is the daughter of an official family, she has a lot of say in the Du family, and even the old lady has to avoid her. The third lady is each other's distant cousins, so the two have always been called sisters.
Because the fourth lady is only a famous woman and has no children, she is the weakest of the several ladies.
She had already seen the above three just now, so she also had a general impression of these people. As for the second lady, who has never seen anyone all year round, she accompanied the old lady of the Du family to recite the scriptures and practice.
Naturally, there are more than these ladies in the backyard, but for various reasons, there is no one who can sit in the concubine's room.
Qing Yao thought about the group of women in the Du family's back house, and couldn't help but caress the corners of her forehead.
"It seems that there is only one step at a time. ”
She sighed softly and slowly closed her eyes.
While Qing Yao was resting, the eldest lady had already returned to her courtyard. When he saw Master Du coming back from a long away, he hurriedly stepped forward.
"Master, why did you come back early?"
When Du Sihai, the old man of the Du family, heard this, he replied with a chuckle: "The matter over there is almost handled, I let Xian'er guard over there, and I will come back first." ”
When the eldest lady heard this, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes, and after quickly restraining her emotions, she said mildly: "Master, Xu'er is the eldest brother, you also let him go through the experience." ”
"It's not that you don't know Xu'er's character, I asked Xue'er to practice more, and I can help Xu'er in the future. ”
Du Sihai said earnestly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Although the eldest son is not angry, he is also his sister-in-law no matter what, and this business will always be handed over to the other party in the future. As for the very capable second son, it is a pity that he is a concubine, and he never thought of letting the other party take over the family business.
The eldest lady listened to the old man's words, covered the corners of her mouth and chuckled a few times, then slowly raised her eyes to look at each other, and began to tell what happened today.
"Master, in the two days since you left, Qingyao's girl suddenly couldn't figure it out for some reason, and actually committed suicide by hitting the wall. ”
"What, she's going to turn the hell around. ”
After Du Sihai heard the news of committing suicide by hitting the wall, the first thing he thought of was not whether the other party was injured, but worried that the Qiu family would get the news and regret this family business.
When the eldest lady saw that the old man was angry, she hurriedly stepped forward and caressed the other party's heart, and said comfortingly: "Master, dissipate your anger." ”
Du Sihai took a deep breath, and finally suppressed the anger in his heart.
"She didn't have the guts to do this before, how dare she do it now? Is it because life has been too comfortable lately, or is it ......?"
The eldest lady looked at the old man's slightly narrowed eyes, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes, and then said a little helplessly: "Master, I'm just worried about her trouble, we and the Qiu family are not going to get along......
The reason why the eldest lady said this was entirely for her own selfishness. Only when the relationship with the Qiu family is completed, will her only daughter have a better way out.
After all, she is very much looking forward to the day when she becomes a relative of the emperor, so the crown prince will choose a concubine a few months later, and her daughter must not miss it.
