Chapter 213: Avoiding Sight
Walking out of the hall, the sun was in full bloom outside, the scorching sun was shining overhead, and there was no wind in the air at all, which made people irritable for no reason.
Zijing held up an umbrella and followed: "Young grandma, where are we going next?" It's so hot, why don't you go and make some soup for the eldest young master to clear the heat and relieve the heat? "Zijing's mentality has always been optimistic, their master is so powerful, he will definitely be able to handle everything, what is missing is time and opportunity, and the attention of the eldest young master. As long as there is the protection and love of the eldest young master, who should dare to make a face with the young grandmother? So Bauhinia has only one purpose, to assist the young grandmother and firmly grasp the heart of the eldest young master!
Lin Fangyu wiped the sweat on her forehead with a brocade and frowned, this is the first day she got married, on the surface, she spent it without danger, but is it really the case?
The father-in-law and her husband left, the aunt was sick, and even the aunts were embarrassed by her, and they should have sat together, and she was in charge of serving the first breakfast, but now the Hou Ye has clearly stated his position _ will not embarrass her much, nor will he love to take care of her. As for the husband, he always has the attitude of watching from the sidelines. Where does the eldest aunt have the right to give orders, those aunts always praise the high and the low, with the Hou Ye's disapproval, the attitude of others can be imagined.
I still remember that the night before the wedding, my mother called her to the bedside and told her a lot carefully, one of which she has always remembered, her mother said: "We are not without news in the Hou Mansion. When your grandfather was still alive, he once took in an aunt and gave birth to a daughter. Your grandfather loved that girl very much. It didn't take long for your grandfather to discover that aunt had run away with her, and there was evidence of her fornication. Your grandfather was so angry that he threw the aunt and her daughter out of the house. Now that aunt has long passed away, but it is the concubine, I heard that it was Yongsheng Hou who accepted her as a concubine......"
Lin Fangyu knew in her heart that her mother had always been kind, and she would definitely refuse to slander anyone. She still claimed that the "concubine" was to protect her grandfather's reputation, and firmly believed that the daughter born to this aunt was her grandfather's biological daughter. No one can change what happened in the past, but it was precisely such an embarrassing position that made it difficult for her.
According to what her mother said, Aunt Xue lives in this Hou Mansion, but why hasn't anyone mentioned it, Aunt Xu and Aunt Luo are fighting in the dark today, so Aunt Luo is not a good stubble, how can she not mention anything about Yongsheng Hou's other aunts? Isn't that a little strange?
Besides, if Aunt Xue is really her grandfather's daughter and her aunt, would these Aunt Xue not know? With this relationship, they could have been closer than others, and there was no reason why Aunt Xue should not appear. Could it be that she is not the favor of Marquis Yongsheng, so she refuses to give her even this kind of meeting.
But after thinking about it, he overturned this conclusion, Yongsheng Hou was still so tolerant of his first wife's subordinates, how could he be so ruthless to his concubine?
Lin Fangyu decided to find out, even if it was for her mother.
The concubines of the Marquis of Yongsheng all lived in the West Chamber, and Lin Fangyu walked towards the West Chamber. However, after two incense injections, he came to the courtyard where Aunt Xue was.
This is a separate courtyard, the entrance is unguarded, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard are scattered and neatly placed on flower stands. There are still a few pots of flowers, drooping their heads under the scorching sun, slowly revealing a dark fragrance. On the west side of the courtyard is a large tree, with wide leaves layered on top of each other, and the dappled sunlight squeezes through the gaps in the leaves, casting a little bit of bright sun.
There is a stone table under the tree, a stone bench in the south, east and west, and it is strange to say that this tree was originally a sycamore that loves to shed leaves, but somehow, the table and stool are clean, and there is no trace of falling leaves.
Lin Fangyu was about to step forward, when the door suddenly opened, and a person walked down the stone steps, thirty years old, wearing the uniform dress of the subordinate. When he saw Lin Fangyu, he was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The slave maid please the young grandmother's An." ”
Her movements were neat, her tone was calm, neither cold nor stammering, she just looked at Lin Fangyu with some defensiveness.
With such an elegant yard, Aunt Xue is not bad. Lin Fangyu made a judgment in her heart, and said with a smile: "Auntie doesn't have to be polite, I'm here to see Aunt Xue." ”
Maybe this is self-depreciation in the eyes of outsiders, but there is always a cloud of doubt covering it, but it is not comfortable, it is better to solve it earlier, and it also makes my mother feel relieved.
Yes, where is the reason why a young grandmother made a special trip to visit an aunt? Taking advantage of the fact that Yongsheng Hou and Bai Xiaoyao are not there, it is just the right time to test one or two.
The grandmother still didn't move, and politely refused: "I'm sorry for the young grandmother, Aunt Xue is not feeling well, I'm afraid it is inconvenient to meet guests." ”
This should be Aunt Xue's personal service grandmother, Lin Fangyu was polite to her: "Mama, how many years have you been with Aunt Xue?" ”
"This ......" the grandmother thought for a while and said, "If you go back to the young grandmother, the slave maid will serve Aunt Xue since she entered the house." It shows her unshakable identity with Aunt Xue.
Lin Fangyu sneered and asked again: "So, Grandma is Aunt Xue's subordinate?" ”
The grandmother didn't understand what she meant, and said: "No, the slave maid is from the Hou Mansion, and when Aunt Xue entered the mansion, the lady saw that she was alone, so she sent the slave and maid over to serve." ”
Lin Fangyu corrected her color: "So, Mama, are you a lady?" That's strange, Madame is thousands of miles away, but she can still predict it in advance. Prevent others from coming. Or, were you making your own decisions and restricting Aunt Xue's freedom of action? ”“”
"Grandma Da Shao is angry!" The mother panicked: "Even if the slave maid has the courage to do this, she doesn't dare to do it." It's just that I see that my aunt's body is weak, and I'm afraid that my aunt will hurt herself, but it's really for the sake of my aunt's body. Since the eldest and young grandmothers insist on seeing it, the slave and maid will go and spread it again! ”
Seeing her words are convincing, but she is not the slightest bit afraid, you know that she is pretending. Lin Fangyu couldn't help but be a little worried, what kind of family is this? Could it be that Aunt Xue is really sick?
The grandmother entered the room and called softly, and there was a woman lying on her side on the bed, unable to see her face clearly. Mama walked over, pretended to shout a few times, and then walked out again.
The woman on the bed, lying on her side, had tears flashing in the corners of her eyes......
"I'm really sorry, the eldest young grandmother, my aunt said that she was very tired, and I was afraid that she would infect the young grandmother, so it was inconvenient to see each other for the time being."
Lin Fangyu nodded and took a deep look, is it Aunt Xue who is holding a grudge against the Xue family and refuses to see her, or is she originally just a canary raised by the Marquis of Yongsheng, who can only stay in the yard sadly, and any place outside this circle is her forbidden place?
"Grandma, young master, please." Kazakura came over and said.
