Chi Yuzhu entered the Hou Mansion all the way, only to feel that the pavilions and pavilions, surrounded by mountains and rocks, the little girl was busy, these daughters-in-law, stewards, the girl also had to say hello to the girl when she saw her, Chi Yuzhu didn't know the identity of these people, but fortunately, Chunlan next to the old lady came in time.

As soon as Chunlan saw Chi Yuzhu, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"The old lady is looking forward to the girl when she sees the sky, and she has finally arrived."

Chi Yuzhu saw that the girls in front of her were all dressed in high-quality clothes, and her conversation was close and casual, guessing that this must be used to serving in front of her aunt, she nodded hurriedly and said with a smile: "I'm tired of my sister, the weather was bad before, so I said that the road would be delayed for a few days, who would have thought that I would catch up." ”

Chunlan said: "The girl is polite, the old lady is waiting for the girl in Rongshoutang." The old lady had already asked someone to clean up the wing of Rongshoutang, and the girl lived in the same courtyard with the old lady in the future. ”

This Chunlan is also a very discerning master, although I heard that the third room of the Chi family is not a climate, and it is not good to be an official and do business, but seeing that the face of this Chi girl is eight points similar to the old lady, and I often listen to the old lady's chatter, I know that this Chi girl is afraid that she is very popular with the old lady. Then the words became more and more gentle and polite.

I was thinking about it, but I saw a person walking in the distance, tapping Emei, surrounded by pearls and emeralds, and wearing Shu embroidery, which was the most fashionable appearance this year.

Chi Yuzhu thought for a moment and asked Chunlan, "Which lady is that?" "The last time she came to the Hou Mansion was when she was a child, she was led by the nurse, and she only remembered that the Hou Mansion was magnificent, and her aunt was kind and loving, and she didn't remember anything else.

Chunlan covered her lips and smiled, "It's not Madame, it's Aunt Xin in the second room." ”

Chi Yuzhu smiled, a little embarrassed, and didn't know where to put her hands and feet. My aunt is dressed so well, if I am a cousin, I don't know what kind of extravagance I want to be. Thinking about his own family, even his mother may not be as good as an aunt in the second room of the Hou Mansion. I didn't know how to answer for a while, and I was afraid that Chunlan would look down on me, so I closed my mouth and stopped talking.

When she entered Rongshoutang, the old lady pulled the jade beads and called her heart and liver. She knew that her younger brother's family spoiled the concubine and killed his wife, and the wife and daughter were forced to live in a small courtyard in the shade. She has been friends with her younger brother since she was a child, this niece has been quiet and virtuous since she was a child, and her appearance is somewhat similar to herself.

It is rare to get together with her mother's family, the old lady is full of joy all day long, rushing to buy things, and calling a few granddaughters of the family over, and preparing all kinds of pastries, so that a few girls can talk and laugh together.

Ripple pouted secretly, and said in her heart, with her without me, with me without her. The memory of the previous life is too painful, even if his mother is healthy in this life, Ji Lianyi does not want such a person to dangle in front of him and disgust himself. What's more, it is not appropriate to have a good wife, but to be a stepmother to others, Ripples don't believe that this Chi girl's mind is really as simple and harmless as it seems on the surface.

Ripples looked at Chi Yuzhu, twenty-eight years is a good time to pinch the water tenderly, a pair of willow eyebrows, a pair of apricot eyes, small cheeks, small and thin lips, slender waist, a narrow one tied with a belt. The good thing to say is that it is lovely and exciting, and if it is ugly, it is a blandness and no blessing. It's not a prostitute in the Qinglou, who is this weak willow Fufeng for? Ripple couldn't help but laugh "sneer".

In the laughter of everyone, the rippling sneer was heard by the Chi girl, and her face sank immediately, and she became more and more silent. Ripple stood up, as if she was really a four-year-old girl, and asked her with a smile: "Aunt Chi, your family lives so far away, did you bring something delicious that Ripple has never seen!" ”

Chi Yuzhu knew that what she said was a specialty, so she naturally brought it. When she was about to leave the house, her mother asked someone to pack it carefully, but when she came to the Hou Mansion, she was embarrassed to take it out, and even the thin gold bracelet on her wrist felt that it burned her hands. Not to mention the two older girls of the Ji family, they are two small ones, and the golden flowers on their heads are pure gold at first glance, but the little doll that is more than four years old, the golden lilacs on their ears are also inlaid with gems, and the sun shines brightly.

Chi Yuzhu only felt embarrassed, Ji Lianjing pulled her little sister, nodded her lips, and didn't allow her to speak again. Holding his little sister's hand, looking at her carefully, Lianjing whispered, "Little elf." She could see that Xiaomei was deliberately speaking, and she could feel Xiaomei's hostility to the Chi girl, not to mention Xiaomei, this Chi family girl, even she didn't like it, she was too inferior, but a pair of eyes looked around, not knowing what she was calculating. It's just that as the host, she wants to give the guests the courtesy they deserve.

As he was talking, he heard that the little girl came to report that the Hou Ye was here.

Ripples and ripples were stunned, in broad daylight, what did Daddy do in his grandmother's room?

Leaving his sister's hand, Ripple threw himself into his father's arms in three steps and two steps. Ji's father was wearing regular clothes, and the whole person looked very elegant. Chi Yuzhu walked over and saluted respectfully: "I've seen my cousin." ”

Father Ji was strange in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said politely: "When did you arrive in Kyoto, why didn't you send someone to inform you in advance, so I could send someone to pick it up." ”

Chi Yuzhu lowered her head and replied softly, "I just arrived today." "No more talking.

Father Ji didn't care, hugged his daughter, and nodded her little nose: "Good Bao'er, what did you eat at noon?" ”

Ripple saw that his father didn't look at Chi Yuzhu much, and he breathed a sigh of relief. The name of the dish is usually told what you have eaten.

Lianjing felt strange in her heart, so decent, it didn't make sense for a girl at home to let the male owner come over and take a look. He frowned without a trace, still smiling.

**

The old lady naturally won't bring her niece for no reason, if she says that because she has no daughter, there are granddaughters waiting for her to love at home. No matter how much Chi Yuzhu is loved by her, she is an outsider after all. The old lady was selfish. Ever since her eldest son insisted on marrying the general's daughter, she faintly felt that something was out of her control. That Ye Shi, a kind person who looks like dough on the surface, treats her with respect, but in fact, she is covered in copper skin and iron bones, and oil and salt do not enter.

The old lady has touched the soft nails countless times at the eldest daughter-in-law, and she has long been very angry in her heart, and now that her daughter-in-law is pregnant, it is even more unpleasant to her eyes. She doesn't lack grandchildren, and she doesn't care much about the one in Ye's belly. Suddenly, I remembered that the girl in the third room of the Chi family was in the good years of twenty-eight, and I was very filial to her, so I thought crookedly. Now that the eldest daughter-in-law is pregnant, the aunt Zhang is old and decrepit, and there is a lack of red sleeves and fragrance around her. Besides, the old lady has always felt that the eldest son wants to split up, and it is the ghost behind the Ye family's back. As soon as the idea hit, it hit the niece. If the niece is a concubine for the eldest son and is favored, not to mention the help of the third room of the Chi family, the son will not go against his will as he does now. Besides, she is her own aunt, and the Ye family doesn't dare to embarrass Yuzhu even if she looks at her own face.

The old lady's abacus was good, but she didn't think that her niece also had her own little abacus, and without her knowledge, she gave her a head start.

After Chi Yuzhu arrived at Ji's house, she couldn't fall asleep on the bed, all she thought about was the richness and luxury in the Hou Mansion, the luxurious aunt she saw during the day, and even the four-year-old child actually had gold flowers and golden lilacs to wear. Not to mention the old lady, even the chopsticks used for eating are ebony and silver-inlayed, she has never seen such a particular person.

Chi Yuzhu tried hard to ignore these senses, but the memory was too deep. The Hou Mansion was a good place, she understood. But she also understands that her own catties are two.

spent money to inquire about the temperament preferences of the three masters. Uncle Ji is rigid and polite, there is a beautiful wife and a beautiful maid in the room, and there is no one else. The third master of the Ji family loves his wife like his life, not to mention the concubine in the room, there is no girl. What's more, Ji Sanye is a concubine, and when the family is divided, the family property will definitely not be as rich as the other two.

Only the second master of the Ji family is left, handsome and elegant, gentle and kind, and loves beauties, and has a beautiful wife and concubine in the room, who is really envious of others. Thinking of this, Chi Yuzhu sat up from the bed suddenly, his eyes emitted a strange light, and he stepped barefoot on the cold ground, and his excitement was a little irrepressible.

The father of the family spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and the mother's status was in jeopardy. She urgently needs a backer to help her support her mother and support her younger brother to grow up. She knows what her capital is, young, beautiful, and well-born. Looking at her father, she knew what kind of women men loved, and in order to maximize the use of her capital, she urgently needed to catch a man like the second master of the Ji family. The identity of the uncle is too high, she doesn't dare to think about it, the identity of the third master is too low, she disdains to think about it, only the second master, she dares, and can give it a try.

With her understanding of her father and brother when she was at home, she secretly inadvertently impressed the second master of the Ji family in her life, showing the weak and moving figure of a twenty-eight girl. She used such a means to make the second master of the Ji family a little tempted, and finally begged the old lady for her. She knew that the old lady loved her, as can be seen from the gifts of the New Year's Festival, but she also knew that her weight would not be comparable to her own son, if she knew that she seduced her son, she would definitely be treated as garbage by the old lady without hesitation.

Until this moment, she still thought that the old lady had taken her over as a cat or dog to accompany her to relieve her boredom; The old lady didn't know what she really thought.

She pulled out a piece of clothing from the small bag under the box, and it was her last fight. The glory of the Hou Mansion was blinded, and Chi Yuzhu sat on the ground with his knees crossed, feeling how pitiful and shameful he was.
