Yue Yao returned to Ma Mansion, and before the things were sorted out, the Tang family came over. Tang smiled and said to Yueyao, "I'll just come over and see if you have anything missing?" ”

Yue Yao smiled and shook her head: "If there is something missing, I will naturally send someone to tell my cousin-in-law." ”

As he was talking, Drizzle came over and asked, "Girl, where are those books?" "Everything else is placed by the maid and then registered, but the books are all made by the girl herself. According to Yueyao, the book she put in person is easy to find.

Seeing this, Tang Shi didn't want to stay any longer.

Yue Yao noticed a hint of disappointment in Tang's eyes, and hurriedly called Xijuan over and asked, "Has something happened to the mansion in the past few days?" ”

Xijuan pursed her lips: "Girl, the second lady's aunt has been here twice in the past few days. This Mrs. Zhu is beating the girl's idea, and wants the second lady to say to the old lady. Xijuan felt that the Zhu family was delusional, and even if Zhu Hang was admitted to the Jinshi, he would not be able to get rid of the roots of the merchants.

Yueyao had long known that the Zhu family was interested in her, but she refused at the beginning, but she didn't expect that the Zhu family had not given up until now. Yue Yao asked a little strangely, "Xiang Wei, why is this Zhu family staring at me?" She had already refused twice, but she didn't expect the Zhu family to give up.

The corners of Xiang Wei's mouth flashed with ridicule: "Girl, the Zhu family has already seen a family some time ago, but when they heard that the old marquis was going to accept the girl as a righteous daughter, they were ready to move again." Xiang Wei began to feel that the Zhu family could barely get into the eyes, but later what the Zhu family did made Xiang Wei understand one thing, the nature of the merchant family to be profit-heavy cannot be taken off.

Yue Yao understood why Zhu Hang's marriage had not been decided yet: "I said why Zhu Hang hasn't said kiss yet, it turned out to be a shopping around." She had long felt that the Zhu family's vision was too high, in fact, as long as the Zhu family lowered the conditions, they would definitely not find a satisfactory marriage, and it would not drag on for so long, it turned out to be rooted here.

Xiang Wei hates this kind of profit-seeking person the most: "Zhu Hang is the only one in the Zhu family's generation who has come out of the scientific examination, and he has no foundation in the officialdom at all, so he doesn't want to slowly lay the foundation first, so he wants to use the woman's power to take the position, who will marry his daughter in such a dishonest person." "A weak foundation can be taken step by step, and officialdom is seniority. But the Zhu family only wants to marry a daughter-in-law who can help Zhu Hang in his career, and it is right to marry a daughter-in-law who can help his son in his career, but it also depends on how much capital he can come up with. People who go through officialdom, especially which one with a high position is a fuel-efficient lamp, although the Zhu family is rich, it is not enough to see in the eyes of those people.

Yueyao waved her hand: "Don't say it, tidy up your things." "I brought back a lot of things from the Hou Mansion, and they all have to be classified.

Xiang Wei said this to Yueyao to remind Yueyao to take precautions: "The girl has also read a lot of scripts, so don't let people take advantage of the loopholes." ”

Yueyao was amused: "When have you ever seen me walking alone?" "Don't talk about going out, even in the yard, it's seven or eight maids and women who follow. Yueyao never goes out alone, even if someone wants to use dirty means to calculate her, it depends on whether there is such a plan. Of course, that abduction was an accident.

Xiang Wei felt that it was better to be careful, some people could do whatever it took to achieve their goals, and Xiang Wei was already scared by Zhou Shu.

Yue Yao didn't refute Xiang Wei's words, but she still said: "The second cousin is a smart person, and a smart person can't do stupid things. "If the Tang family dares to help her mother's family calculate her, she will have no place in the Ma family.

Xiang Wei rarely agreed with Yueyao's words.

Yue Yao felt that the Zhu family really didn't need to worry, what should be worried was someone else: "Xiang Wei, you said before that it is not so easy to deal with Zhou Shu. Xiang Wei, how long do you think it will take at the earliest? ”

If there was no previous thing, Xiang Wei would definitely ask Yueyao not to think about it, but now she no longer dares to take chances: "Girl, the most troublesome thing is that Zhou Shu's backer is the Zhou family, and Zhou Shu also caught up with the fourth prince, Zhou Shu is a character who belongs to the head snake in Haikou, and there is no shortage of connections." Girl, you won't be able to move him in three or five years. ”

Yueyao felt that her heart had hardened now, but there was no way, Zhou Shu didn't get rid of it, she couldn't rest assured: "What if it is with the help of external forces?" ”

Xiang Wei smiled bitterly: "Girl, Master Hou will not offend the Zhou family and the four princes." "Master Hou can say that the girl is a righteous sister and can support the girl, but he will not offend the Zhou family and the four princes for the girl. Because the scope of the implications is too wide.

Yue Yao smiled and said: "I'm not a person who doesn't know what to do, I remember the kindness of Lord Hou to me." Yue Yao knew very well that if it was a few small fish and shrimp, Luo Shao would definitely stand up for him. But the Zhou family is different, and one is not handled well to implicate the Hou Mansion. She has no relatives with the Luo family and has a lot of Buddha from the Luo family, and it is too late to be grateful, where will she blame Luo Shao for not exchanging Zhou Shu for her.

Xiang Wei asked, "Does the girl mean Li Guoxun?" ”

Yueyao didn't understand why Xiang Wei would mention Uncle Li. Yue Yao blessed her soul and asked, "Uncle Li is going back to Beijing?" ”

Xiang Wei nodded and said: "Well, Hubu Shangshu is unwell and told the old man, and the emperor also approved it." Originally, according to his qualifications, he was the head of the left servant of the household department, but later, for some reason, the emperor appointed Li Guoxun. Li Guoxun is now on his way back to Beijing. ”

Yue Yao was a little angry and said, "You didn't tell me about such a big thing." She didn't even know that Uncle Li was coming back.

Xiang Wei deliberately didn't tell Yueyao, because it was useless for Yueyao to know these things: "When they return to the capital, you will naturally know." "Li Guoxun is so good to Yueyao and Tingzheng, when he returns to the capital, he must make a post and let them go to the Li Mansion.

Yueyao asked, "How long will it take?" ”

Xiang Wei calculated: "It will take about half a month." Li Guoxun is not bad, it is really rare to sit in a department at forty. ”

Yueyao's heart was full of joy.

Xiang Wei frowned and said, "Girl, what did you mean by using external forces?" What external force do you want to rely on? "It's not the Hou Mansion, it's not the Li family, it's not even the Ma family, what external force can the girl rely on? She couldn't know more about the girl's situation, and she couldn't figure out where Yueyao was going to borrow.

Yueyao was interrupted by Xiang Wei like this, knowing that Li Guoxun was coming back, so she was not ready to tell Xiang Wei what she said next.

Where is Xiang Wei such a person who is so easily defeated. She knew very well that Yue Yao was a very calm person, and if she wasn't sure, she would never open this mouth. And the person who can make Yueyao speak is not simple: "Girl, who is this person?" "First the prince of Yongding, and then An Zhichen, anyway, Yue Yao knows a lot of strange people, even if Yue Yao says that it is the prince, Xiang Wei will not be too surprised.

Yue Yao hesitated a little: "You let me think again." "It's not that Yue Yao is guarding against Xiang Wei, but that Yue Yao doesn't know whether to use this person or not.

Xiang Wei withdrew from the study and meditated in the room, but she couldn't think of anyone who was so righteous that she would not care about the Zhou family and the four princes to help Yueyao deal with Zhou Shu.

At night, Yue Yao couldn't practice calligraphy, couldn't read books, couldn't even calm down when painting, and finally had no choice but to go to the backyard, hoping that the wind would calm down.

A bright moon blew in the sky, sprinkling a bright moonlight, as if spreading a layer of white mist on the earth. It was quiet all around, not even the sound of cicadas.

Xiang Wei looked at Yue Yao standing in the courtyard, and the lonely figure made Xiang Wei feel a headache. But Xiang Wei knew very well that it was not appropriate to come forward and disturb at this time.

Yueyao looked up to the sky and asked, "Xiang Wei, you said that if I used something I shouldn't use, would my father blame me?" Yue Yao knew that Xiang Wei was behind.

Xiang Wei couldn't figure it out, and when she heard this, she understood what Yue Yao said with the help of external forces. Xiang Wei was silent for a moment and said, "I think, as long as the girl doesn't use those things to hurt the heavens, the master in the spirit of heaven will definitely not blame you." Xiang Wei complained in her heart, what is left for you is naturally yours, what should not be used. It is natural to use it, and it is a fool not to use it. However, Xiang Wei knew Yueyao's awkward temperament, so she could only take a tactful statement.

Yue Yao turned her head to look at Xiang Wei, and said with a very calm face: "You have probably guessed who I am talking about?" Xiang Wei has always been by her side and knows her very well.

Xiang Wei rolled her eyes: "Girl, do you think I am a Da Luo Immortal, can I pinch it?" She knew there was such a list, but who was on the list, how could she possibly know!

Yueyao was an insecure person, and said with a wry smile when she heard this: "If it's okay, I really don't want to use it, but there's no way to do it at this point." Xiang Wei, you can't tell anyone about this. "If you let the uncle know, I guess I can skin her.

Xiang Wei really wanted to say that you think I am as stupid as you, where will people know about such a big thing: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, even Hou Ye and Bai Yi I won't say half a word." "Master Hou is her former master, Bai Yi is her best sister, she doesn't even say it, and others don't say it.

If Yueyao didn't believe Xiang Wei, she wouldn't have told her about it.

Xiang Wei saw that Yueyao didn't tell this person for a long time, and couldn't help but say: "Girl, Zhou Shu's person is not easy to deal with, what method does the girl plan to use to deal with her?" ”

Yue Yao has been thinking about this for a long, long time, and feels that the method she thinks of is the most reliable: "I want to ask him to help collect evidence of Zhou Shu's violations and crimes, as long as he has these criminal evidence, even if there is the Zhou family and the four princes, he will not be able to protect him." "Hitting a snake and hitting seven inches, a small fight will only make Zhou Shu more vigilant, and then it will become more and more difficult to deal with.

Xiang Wei's eyes sparkled when she heard Yue Yao's words, and there was no greater sense of accomplishment than watching the little white rabbit turn into a big bad wolf. Of course, Yue Yao is still far from the level of the big bad wolf, but this progress is still gratifying, at least Xiang Wei didn't think about it before.

If Xiang Wei knew that Yue Yao had such a cruel experience before she hesitated to make this decision, she would definitely spurn and despise it.
