Chapter 100: Infatuation
Shen Yan was full of confidence this time, thinking that even without Li Chengqi's support, her reasoning would be able to convince Jiao and others. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info As it turned out, she did.
It was the first time she had made such a big decision, so she was very excited. She is looking forward to the real recognition and admiration of the Hou Mansion after the battle.
In the following time, she handled all the affairs in the backyard of the Hou Mansion, from the food and clothing of the masters, to the trivial disputes between the maids and servants, she thought about them thoughtfully, and did them sleekly and fairly. In just two months, the subordinates of the Hou Mansion respected her as the housewife.
However, her belly is getting bigger and bigger, and the power in her hands will be returned to Wei Min sooner or later.
Jiao was the first to bring up the matter. Wei Min said resolutely: "Let's bother Sister Yan'er for a while, I am very embarrassed, and I really can't bear the heavy responsibility of the Hou Mansion." As she spoke, she smiled imperceptibly and glanced at Li Chengqi.
"This was a good thing at the beginning...... Jiao's was about to lose his temper, but he changed his mind and continued in a gentle way, "Shen's is about to give birth, and it is not easy to take care of housework." If you don't want to manage the backyard, then someone has to take over the backyard affairs. As she spoke, she looked at her son and asked, "Qi'er, what do you say?" ”
"I see that Yan'er's body and bones are very good, and she is in charge of everything in the backyard for a while, and she is also thoughtful, so it is okay to continue to let her take care of it for a while." Li Chengqi smiled, his face was relaxed, but his words were extremely serious.
"How does this work?" Jiao resolutely objected, "Let her take care of the housework with a big belly, this is going to get out." People think I'm an old woman bullying her. Even if you let Steward Zhong act as the backyard agent, you can't let her continue to work hard. ”
"That'...... Yan'er. Let you continue to be in charge of the affairs of the house, can you afford it? Li Chengqi asked Shen Yan intentionally gently.
Shen Yan thought for a while and said, "These days, the old lady often sends people to send tonics to my Imperial Fragrance Garden. I have no illness or pain, I am in good spirits, and I am in charge of the backyard, but I have never felt tired. ”
The parties all said that their health was fine, and Jiao's was no longer good at talking about her big belly, so she had to give up. She held her breath for a long time, and she didn't tell Jiao Huaiqing until Li Chengqi, Shen Yan, Wei Min and Jiao Huaiyu left.
"You have to hurry up and let your cousin marry Huaiyu." Jiao said, "Otherwise, the key to the backyard of this Hou Mansion." I'm afraid it will fall into her hands. ”
"Why should my aunt be in a hurry? Isn't there still a cousin in the main room? Jiao Huaiqing said disapprerovingly, "As long as there is this cousin-in-law in the main house, the key to the backyard of the Hou Mansion will not be the turn of the Shen family." ”
Hearing this, Jiao couldn't help but sigh, "I don't think that Wei Min is like a person who can call the shots." You didn't notice that compared to her, the Shen family has all the edge. Does it show her incompetence even more? She added, "Sometimes when I think about it, I feel that I shouldn't have chosen her to be Qi'er's main room." ”
"Auntie, rest assured, how can there be a woman in the world who will not be jealous? Wei. Sooner or later, it will be against the Shen family. Jiao Huaiqing said, "A person like Wei, who seems to be skilled and steady, is actually the most scheming." ”
"It can't be generalized." Jiao retorted, "A woman who can coexist peacefully with her concubine." It's not like it's unprecedented. ”
Jiao Huaiqing smiled and didn't argue much. only said: "In any case, it is really important to let my cousin marry Huaiyu as soon as possible." ”
"What I'm most worried about is that Qi'er refuses to agree." Jiao said with a melancholy look on his face.
"Auntie, you can leave this matter to me." Jiao Huaiqing is full of confidence.
Jiao was full of confidence in him, and he had some doubts, but he would not doubt his ability. She really left this matter to him.
Who would have thought that the method used by Jiao Huaiqing was particularly despicable.
This night, he found an excuse and led Li Chengqi to the Pick-up Pavilion, and when Li Chengqi entered the inner room of the Pick-up Pavilion, he locked the door outside.
"Huaiqing, you are so bold! Open the door! Li Chengqi, who was locked in the house, was furious.
"My cousin is going to be punished, tomorrow morning, I have nothing to say, but I just ask my cousin to accompany Huaiyu tonight." Jiao Huaiqing's words almost revealed a bit of tragedy. He also said: "Before Huaiyu lost his memory, he liked his cousin so much. She has forgotten everything now, that is, her former arrogant and unreasonable temperament has also changed, and her cousin will let her be your wife and fulfill his wish. ”
"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? You open the door. Jiao Huaiyu also banged on the door desperately, looking like a lonely man and a widow living in the same room, which was really insulting.
Outside, there was no more Jiao Huaiqing's voice, only the sound of insects on the trees. Li Chengqi knew that he couldn't get out, so he sat at the table with some boredom. Seeing that Jiao Huaiyu was very nervous, he hurriedly smiled and comforted: "Huaiyu, don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you." ”
Jiao Huaiyu nodded, and suddenly asked timidly: "I...... I used to really like my cousin and wanted to marry him? ”
"Nope." Li Chengqi shook his head, "You just like to pester my cousin to play with you." ”
Jiao Huaiyu was suspicious, and sat on the soft couch carefully, staring at Li Chengqi all the time.
Inside the house, the incense is intoxicating. I don't know how long it has been, Li Chengqi actually felt unbearably thirsty and hot, and then looked at the people sitting on the soft couch, he was dizzy.
"Cousin...... What happened to you? Jiao Huaiyu walked up to him worriedly. She held him up and found that his body was very hot, "Cousin......"
"Yan'er ......" In front of Li Chengqi's eyes, Shen Yan's face appeared. As soon as he hugged her, he kissed her on the neck.
"Cousin! I'm not ......" Jiao Huaiyu struggled hard and shouted hard, but Li Chengqi didn't seem to hear it.
Li Chengqi said: "I want you...... Don't hide from me, I'm so uncomfortable. ”
Hearing this, Jiao Huaiyu was stunned, and let his anxious hands almost tear off her clothes.
In the Imperial Fragrance Garden, Xiyu finally couldn't help but tell Shen Yan something. She said: "Master Hou didn't know why he went to the direction of the Fang Pavilion at night. ”
Li Chengqi originally said that he would come to Yuxiangyuan to solve the difficulties in the book to Shen Yan. When he didn't come for a long time, Shen Yan already felt weird, and when she heard Xiyu say this, she asked, "When did it happen?" ”
"I saw it when I passed through the Second Court about two quarters of an hour ago."
"So late, where did you go and you had to pass through the second court, didn't you leave the house? What are you doing when you go out of the house? Shen Yan's surprise turned to Xiyu's head.
"I know you'll think a lot about me when I say it, Miss." Xiyu was prepared, and said with a smile, "I'm out of the house, Xianglan is afraid that the family will know about it, so I asked me to send the monthly money she received this time to her house." ”
Shen Yan didn't worry much when she heard this. She got up, told Xiyu to take the cloak, and decided to go to the Fang Pavilion to take a look. Her instincts told her that something was wrong. When she came to the Pick-up Pavilion, she saw that the maids and servants of the Pick-up Pavilion all looked uneasy.
Seeing Shen Yan coming, Jiao Huaiyu's personal maid Amei hurriedly stepped forward to reply.
"Miss Cousin is there?"
She shook her head, then nodded in fear.
"What's wrong?"
Ah Mei was silent, and the other minions didn't dare to come out. Shen Yan didn't care, she went straight to the inner room.
"Mrs. Ping, don't go!" Amei hurriedly knelt down in front of her and stopped, "Master Hou...... Hou Ye is also inside. ”
Hearing this, a bad feeling surged into Shen Yan's heart, but her steps were still uncontrollable and wanted to walk over to take a look.
The door to the inner room was locked, and she ordered Ame to take the key to open it. After the lock was removed, she reached out and tried to push it open, but suddenly she heard the sound of a woman crying out in pain and the heavy wheezing of a man in the room, almost the same as the night she lost herself.
"It hurts...... I hurt my cousin so much...... Ah......h
"I'll be a little lighter...... Soon to be able to get in......"
Such a voice sounded so harsh to Shen Yan. Her outstretched hand finally withdrew weakly.
"Miss......" Xiyu thought that her young lady was sad, and couldn't help but call out with pity.
In fact, Shen Yan was just angry that Jiao and the others had resorted to such indiscriminate means in order to make Jiao Huaiyu Li Chengqi's woman and give her the opportunity to fight with her! She turned silently and left. When she came to the outside of the Pick-up Pavilion, she said to Jiao Shi in her heart: "Even if you play Jiao Huaiyu's chess, you can't trap me, I'm afraid it's in vain." ”
Thinking like this, the corners of her mouth opened an arc. Unintentionally seeing such an arc, Xiyu, who was very worried about her, was inevitably confused, "Miss, what are you laughing at?" ”
Shen Yan didn't answer, and walked towards the Imperial Fragrance Garden.
The next day, the Hou Mansion was in an uproar. When the subordinates of the Hou Mansion whispered, they all said: "Hou Ye somehow went to Miss Cousin's room and asked for Miss Cousin's body", "Hou Ye can't marry Miss Cousin now", "But Hou Ye has a wife", "Miss Cousin can be the second Mrs. Ping like Mrs. Ping".
Shen Yan is in charge of the backyard affairs, and there is such a big mess, she can't ignore it. As she expected, Fushoutang sent someone to call her over early in the morning.
When she came to Fushoutang, everyone who should have been there was already there. Jiao Huaiyu leaned beside Jiao's side, although he was quiet now, his eyes were red from crying. This shows that she also has countless grievances and confusion in her heart. Li Chengqi frowned. Seeing Shen Yan walk in with a calm face, he opened his mouth, but he didn't say a word. His gaze once again fell on Jiao Huaiqing resentfully. Every time he met his gaze, Jiao Huaiqing lowered his head and dodged.
"Everyone must have heard about what happened last night, right?" Jiao glanced at everyone, everyone was silent, and she asked Li Chengqi: "Qi'er, you say it yourself, what should you do." ”
Li Chengqi didn't answer, his eyes stared at Jiao Huaiqing even more burningly, and he didn't let go for a moment. Finally, Jiao Huaiqing walked to the hall and knelt down. Then he gave himself a heavy smack.
"Huaiqing, what are you doing here?" Jiao Shi stood up in shock.
"It's all up to me for this." (To be continued.) )
