In a remote courtyard of the Marquis of Changning's mansion, Aunt Xiao was sitting on the couch in the west room with a sewn shirt in her hand. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Du Juan stood aside and looked at the aunt who had been in a daze for a long time, walked over lightly, and took the clothes in Aunt Xiao's hand.

Aunt Xiao tightened the shirt in her hand suddenly, and when she looked up, she saw that it was the cuckoo before she let go of her hand.

"Auntie, the Hou Ye has returned home, will it ......?" Du Juan actually wanted to say whether there would be any changes in the family affairs of the third lady after the Hou Ye returned home.

Aunt Xiao smiled bitterly and shook her head, "No, no matter how old the Hou Ye is, he is also the son of the old lady, he will not disobey the widow." ”

"Auntie, is the third lady being ...... like this" Du Juan couldn't go on with a little choked up.

The cuckoo was rescued from outside by the former wife of the Hou Mansion ten years ago, and the cuckoo at that time had been ruined by people, and was rescued by the incense's wife when he hanged himself.

Later, Mrs. was seriously ill and arranged Du Juan to Aunt Xiao's side, although Du Juan rarely went out of this courtyard, but his attention and affection for the third lady was not less than that of Aunt Xiao.

"Cuckoo, the third lady is much more powerful than we thought! After knowing her own family, can you see that the third lady has the slightest self-abandonment and self-pity? It took a long time for Aunt Xiao to say such a sentence faintly.

Du Juan remembered the news he overheard a few days ago, and told his aunt anxiously, and her aunt actually took herself to Xiaomei Garden in person despite her scruples for so many years.

"Auntie, why did you come here at this time?" Zhen Zhen looked at the weather outside, it was all dark.

"Third Miss, did the old lady and the lady give the young lady to the fourth young master of the Dingguo Mansion?" Aunt Xiao wasn't sure if Miss San knew about this, because Miss San's attitude was too casual and comfortable.

"Auntie, are you worried about me?" Zhen Zhen glanced at Aunt Xiao with a smile, this person has not been out of his yard casually for so many years, and today he came over like this, it seems that he is really thinking about this third lady in his heart.

"Third Miss." Aunt Xiao raised her voice a little angrily, "Do you know who the fourth young master is?" Do you know that the old lady and the lady are pushing you into the fire pit? ”

Zhen Zhen smiled bitterly, "Auntie, this matter has been decided, even if my father comes back, there is no way." ”

Yes, even if the Hou Ye comes back, he won't change anything, can he just change something with the third lady and his own aunt?

"But, Miss......" Zhen Zhen raised her hand to stop Aunt Xiao's words, "Auntie, you really don't have to worry about me, this family affair does look a little inappropriate on the outside, but Aunt Niang thinks about it carefully, it is the Dingguo Mansion, the only three major mansions in the capital, if it weren't for the reputation of the Fourth Young Master, such a family affair would not have happened to me." ”

Zhen Zhen looked at Aunt Xiao's thoughtful face, it seems that Aunt Xiao's previous family background should be good.

"Since I am the Duchess of Guo personally asking for marriage, how can I look up to it after passing the house.

Besides, things are man-made, as long as I want to, there is a way to live a good life. ”

"But miss, the one has an illegitimate child?" Aunt Xiao was still a little unwilling.

"Auntie, what is the difference between an illegitimate child and a concubine in this world? Even if I marry someone else, won't I take a concubine? ”

Yes, marrying no one can say that you are not allowed to take a concubine, what is the difference between that and that young master, that is, that person's reputation is not good.

"Auntie, since you are here, I also have something to discuss with you."

"Miss, you say." Aunt Xiao looked at Zhen Zhen with some puzzlement.

The third lady seems to be a little different from before, she seems to be more like a lady, she is calm and wise, and she is not in a hurry about anything.

"Auntie, you should know very well in your heart that although Brother Xuan is recorded in his mother's name, if the eldest brother returns home, everything in the Hou Mansion will be the eldest brother's."

"Miss, the slave doesn't have any other delusions, I just think that Brother Xuan can ...... in the future."

Zhen Zhen smiled and waved her hand, interrupting Aunt Xiao's somewhat frightened words, "Aunt Xiao has thought about it a lot, what I want to say is that you should plan for Brother Xuan." ”

Aunt Xiao looked at Zhen Zhen a little stunned, Miss, what do you mean, how can you say that?

"Auntie, Brother Xuan is eight years old, everything in the Hou Mansion belongs to the eldest brother, does Auntie want Brother Xuan to live such a mediocre life?"

Aunt Xiao immediately understood what Zhen Zhen meant, "What does Miss mean...?" ”

Zhen Zhen nodded, "Auntie, do you want Brother Xuan to go on a scientific expedition in the future, or enter the military camp?" No matter where you think about it, my aunt is going to start planning. ”

Aunt Xiao nodded, her eyes were a little sour, Miss herself was like this, and she was still thinking about her younger brother.

"My younger brother is smart and smart, and he is a little smart, and the most important thing is that he knows how to behave at such a young age. But I heard from my brother that Mr. is a little pedantic and old-fashioned, and he doesn't know how to do general affairs, and he doesn't know how to be flexible in terms of human feelings. ”

Zhen Zhen paused slightly, allowing Aunt Xiao to digest what she said, "If Brother Xuan really wants to take the road of the imperial examination in the future, the most taboo thing is to be pedantic and old-fashioned, and he doesn't know how to be flexible in everything." ”

The more high-ranking officials are, not only rely on their own talents, but also those who play politics are far from being educated.

Du Juan looked at Aunt Xiao with some understanding, "What do you mean by ......?" ”

"Hmm. Since Miss San said that she wouldn't let us worry, we can only do this. I thought about it for a long time, no matter how the third lady marries in the future, she must have her mother's family behind her.

Instead of thinking about what we can't do, let's really think about Brother Xuan, in the future, Brother Xuan will really have a chance, at least it will be a support for the third lady. ”

"Then my aunt is going to discuss with Master Hou about Brother Xuan's study?" At this time, I'm afraid that Hou Ye doesn't have that thought.

Of course, Aunt Xiao knows that now is not the time, "Don't worry, the third lady has such a big thing, first she was retired from the Hou Mansion by An Le Hou Mansion for no reason, and now she has been given to the Dingguo Mansion, I am afraid that the Hou Ye will not leave the Hou Mansion at will in the past few years." ”

If it weren't for the fact that Master Hou was not in the mansion, the third lady would be forced to look like this.

Aunt Xiao showed a sneer on her face, "For so many years, I have been silent in this small courtyard for the sake of Brother Xuan, and now for the sake of the third lady, I will also find a way to pull Master Hou over." ”

To be honest, Aunt Xiao's appearance is indeed a peerless beauty, she looks like a person in her twenties in her thirties, and no one can see that she has such a big child when she goes out.

Since the death of his wife, for the sake of Brother Xuan, he also doesn't want to be unhappy with Xiaobai's family, and he has always been an invisible person, and now for the sake of the third lady and Brother Xuan, he can't say that he has to come up with some skills to win over the heart of the Hou Ye.
