Xia Yao had been in Xuanyuan Luo's mansion until she had dinner before leaving, and when she returned to Xia Li's courtyard with two sturdy maids, Zhou was sitting in it with a calm face.

As soon as Zhou saw Xia Yao, he quickly showed a kind smile, but the resentment in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

"Yaoyao is back." She took a step forward and wanted to hold Xia Yao's hand, but Xia Yao avoided it, and Zhou had to take her hand back in embarrassment, "I've already asked the short-sighted one to clean up your yard, you go with me to take a look, what's missing?" ”

Zhou calmed down for a day and finally sobered up.

When she heard that Xia Yao went out early in the morning, she hurriedly asked the maid to clean up her original yard, so as not to obstruct her eyes from the other party living in Xia Li's yard.

Xia Yao sneered, she wanted to send her away like this, how could it be so easy?

"My daughter lives well here, so why bother my mother again?" Xia Yao said.

"No trouble, no trouble...... Zhou's hands clenched, she wanted to drive Xia Yao out, her tone was inevitably a little hurried, "It's all packed up, you go and see ......"

Xia Yao took two steps forward, passed through Zhou's, and sat directly on the upholstered chair, she touched the handle with her hand, and said, "My daughter still wants to stay here for a while longer, and talk about my sister, as for my own yard, let's see it in a few days!" ”

Zhou's spirit was not very stable and could not be stimulated, and Xia Yao rejected her again and again, which made her very annoyed.

She frowned, her eyes widened, she simply tore her face, and said fiercely: "You little prodigal hoof, don't be embarrassed, if you don't want to leave, I'll let people throw you out, see if you still want your broken face......"

"I'm here to see who's kicking out whom?" Xia Yao slapped the table and stood up, pointed at Zhou's and said, "Throw her out for me." ”

As soon as the words fell, the two maids who came back with Xia Yao strode over, scooped up Zhou, and before everyone could react, they lifted her outside the courtyard, and with a gentle push, Zhou's fell to the ground.

"You're not leaving, are you waiting for me to invite?" Xia Yao looked at a group of stunned maids suspiciously.

The maids shuddered, didn't dare to say anything, and ran out in a hurry.

The door of the courtyard was slammed shut, and no matter how Zhou shouted outside, the people inside were unmoved.

"Miss......" Midori was a little scared, "Is it really okay for us to do this?" ”

"What's so bad." Xia Yao replied faintly, "It's a pity, I'm going to live here for a few more days, alas! ”

Lu'er, "............, "You are dying to save face and suffer a crime!!

Zhou made trouble at the door for a long time, and no one paid attention to her, she screamed and ran to Xia Shanghong to complain.

If Xia Shanghong still had six points of affection for the Zhou family in the past, then now, I am afraid that there is only a meager point left.

He listened impatiently and said, "She can live wherever she wants, what do you care so much?" I think you're really old and confused. ”

Zhou's tears were stuck in the corners of his eyes, and they looked strange and pitiful.

She said, "But that's where Li'er lives!" ”

"Don't mention that evil girl to me, something that has no interest...... Xia Shanghong was full of disgust, "She is gone, can't this courtyard be inhabited by newcomers?" ”

As soon as Zhou heard him describe Xia Li in this tone, he didn't catch his breath, rolled his eyes, and fainted.

Everyone was in a mess all of a sudden, and when the doctor came, he prescribed two medicines to Zhou, and advised: "Mrs. Ling is worried about something, let her see everything, and it will be fine." ”

"Hmm." Xia Shanghong nodded absentmindedly.

Seeing that he didn't take it to heart, the doctor sighed softly, took the consultation fee from the storeroom, and left.

After half a ring, Xia Shanghong came back to his senses, and he suddenly said: "When Mrs. wakes up, let her hand over the power of the house to Aunt Zhao, and during this time, let her rest in the courtyard!" ”

Zhou's personal maid was stunned for a moment, and said worriedly in her heart - is this about to fall out of favor?!

On his face, he replied respectfully and in a low voice: "Yes." ”

Xia Shanghong nodded with satisfaction and walked away.

When Xia Yao learned that the Zhou family was deprived of the right to take charge of the family, it was still the next day, when she drank porridge and asked, "Then who is in charge of the family now?" ”

"Miss Hui, it's Aunt Zhao." Lu'er's eyebrows and eyes crooked when she smiled.

"Oh!" Xia Yao nodded, isn't this Aunt Zhao the concubine who mentioned Xia Shanghong's birthday banquet last time?

It stands to reason that such a big event happened, Xia Yao should go to meet this Aunt Zhao, but she was lazy, and then she thought that she was going to leave the Xia family, and she was unwilling to get involved in such things, so she simply lived quietly in Xia Li's courtyard, waiting for the Zhou family to come and beg her to go back.

Fortunately, this Aunt Zhao is also knowledgeable, she doesn't need to go against a Xia Yao who has no grievances against her, but takes the initiative to send someone to ask Xia Yao if she lacks anything?

It was kept at a distance of not far and not close, just right.

In the case of Zhou's case, a lot of rumors suddenly appeared outside, rumors about right and wrong, of which the truth and falsehood were half seeped, and it was no longer clear what was right and wrong.

Xia Shanghong also heard about this, and he sneered disdainfully in his heart, thinking that as long as Xia Yao wanted to marry Xuanyuan Luo well, he would not make too much trouble about this matter, and it would be over with one eye and one eye closed.

On April 11, Xia Yao received her first post after returning to the capital.

Most people in the capital know about the Xia family's affairs, and now that the head of the family has become an aunt, she is not qualified to attend this kind of banquet.

Therefore, Xia Yao, a woman who is not yet in time, wants to attend alone, which can be laughable and pitiful in the eyes of others.

And the person who posted the post happened to be the crown princess Ning Susu, she handed Xia Yao a copy separately with the intention of watching jokes, and repeatedly emphasized that she hoped that she must attend, she missed her cousin, and she really missed it.

Xia Yao didn't shirk either, she smiled and asked Lu'er to hand a letter to Zhao Zhiwen, hoping to go over with her that day.

Zhao Zhiwen was forced to go on a blind date by her mother every day, and when she heard that Xia Yao came back and didn't have time to meet her, she was so happy that she was about to jump up.

Mother Zhao couldn't help frowning when she saw her rude appearance, "Look at you, there is a girl's family, I can marry you off that day, and I will start burning incense and worshipping the Buddha." ”

"Is that an exaggeration?" Zhao Zhiwen shrank into a ball and muttered quietly.

Mother Zhao pouted at her and changed the topic: "I have heard about the second miss of the Xia family, although the Zhou family is not kind to her stepmother, but this second miss is not a good stubble, you must not be robbed by others." ”

"Won't it?" Zhao Zhiwen retorted: "Yaoyao is a good person. ”

"You elm head...... Mother Zhao pointed to Zhao Zhiwen's head, hating iron and steel, "Look at it, this capital has a little identity, and now the one who is willing to deal with the Xia family, that is, you, just rushed inside." ”

Zhao Zhiwen said: "That's Xia Shangshu's fault, it has nothing to do with Yaoyao." ”

"You... You...... You ......" Zhao's mother trembled for a long time before she spoke, "No matter what, they are all members of the Xia family, one is prosperous and the other is lost, do you think Miss Xia Er's reputation is good now?" If it weren't for the scruples of the Fifth Highness, I wouldn't know what it would have become? ”

"But isn't there still a fifth highness?" Zhao Zhiwen lowered his head, and although his voice was small, it clearly reached Zhao's mother's ears.

Mother Zhao muttered in her heart - if it weren't for the Fifth Highness, I would have let you cut off contact with her a long time ago, and I would still use it to remind you now?

Zhao Zhiwen really liked Xia Yao, so when she was in the same carriage with Xia Yao, she couldn't help but whisper what Zhao's mother said to her to Xia Yao.

Xia Yao didn't get angry after hearing this, but asked happily: "Tell me, what happened to me outside?" ”

"Don't make a fuss." Zhao Zhiwen glared at her, "It's not a problem that you're always like this!" How bad a girl's house is! ”

"What do you still say about me?" Xia Yao teased: "Why don't you listen to your own." ”

Zhao Zhiwen's cheeks flushed, and he was a little embarrassed, "What's wrong with me??" ”

"Tigress cub." Xia Yao pointed at her forehead with her index finger and read it out in a low voice.

Zhao Zhiwen, "............"

Xia Yao continued: "Isn't it just right to be with me, Miss Xia Er, who can't even tolerate her family, with a black hand and a black heart? ”

"I didn't see you like that......" Zhao Zhiwen was a little anxious, "I think you're good, even if you treat them badly, it must be that they are not good......"

She said incoherently, but Xia Yao understood.

"I know, I know......" Xia Yao hurriedly soothed, "I'm joking with you?" Why should you care so much about outsiders? ”

Zhao Zhiwen nodded approvingly, then shook his head and said: "You can't say that, now His Royal Highness is doting on you and thinking about you, so he doesn't care about these gossips, but when he waits for the future, these words will become a thorn in his heart......"

"I understand." Xia Yao smiled and said, "But, why don't you fight it?" ”

When she said this, her eyes flashed with dazzling light, her green clothes and black hair, and she was heroic and a little charming, which made Zhao Zhiwen stunned for a while.

"Life is too short, don't go for decades, if you calculate every step and endure everywhere, even the people you love the most have to take care of the future......" she turned her head and smiled freely, "What is the taste of living such a day?" ”

Zhao Zhiwen only felt that his heart was beating loudly, and he didn't know if it was for her or for her.
