227: Poison Mouth
Li Tu, the second young master of the Li family, has never been as stable as Li Cheng.
If Li Cheng and Li Zhen did this matter, she might still take it to heart.
However, Agarwood was actually Li Tu's attendant.
Xia Ruan clenched his palms tightly, and was a little stunned for a while.
Was it really what she heard?
Xia Ruan looked up at the heavy snow in the courtyard and sighed secretly.
Sure enough, this matter still has to be investigated by Chongli again.
Once you are involved with the uncle and the second uncle, you can't jump to conclusions.
In Xia Ruan's eyes, the Li family does not have a simple character.
She had to be careful.
After returning from the Li family, Xia Fucheng's attitude has changed a lot, he used to always like to drop things and have a short temper. Now he has completely transformed into a loving father, staying by the Li family all day long, taking care of Xia Rui carefully.
Regarding Xia Fucheng's transformation, not only the Li family was a little surprised, but even Xia Wen didn't understand what was going on with her second uncle.
Could it be that going to the Chengguo Mansion once can really completely change a person?
Xia Wen was a little depressed.
Mother Wan has been asking her to be patient these days, but she has endured it for so long, and she hasn't seen much more of fennel's temperament.
Xia Wen felt that her chest was holding her breath so much, as if she was pressed by a boulder.
In the past, she could start from her second uncle, but now the second uncle's behavior is like a different person. Obey Li's words. Her efforts in front of her second uncle a few days ago were almost in vain, and the things that the second uncle promised her. I guess I forgot about it.
What should be done to make her stand at the same height as Xia Ruan?
"Fourth Miss......" Fennel walked in, saw the food on the table that had cooled, and pouted, "Fourth Miss has finished eating?" Do you want to take it down? ”
Xia Wen turned her head to look at Fennel, with a little displeasure on her eyebrows.
Fennel's tone is exactly like that of a young lady, she is like a little girl.
A few days ago, Xia Ruan's courtyard mentioned a housekeeper's mother-in-law, and it happened that this housekeeper's mother-in-law had a private holiday with fennel. After Fennel learned about this that day, she lost her temper when she came back, and the angry Xia Wen gritted her teeth. If it weren't for Mother Wan's constant persuasion to be patient. She's definitely going to have a fight with Fennel. Then let Lee sell the fennel.
She is the fourth lady of the Xia family, but now she has to suffer from such a nest.
It's just that Xia Wen didn't dare to tell Xia Ruan about these things.
Last time, she just wanted to go to the palace to see for a long time. By the way, I know some aristocratic wives. She can also find a good family in the future. Unexpectedly, the Li family told Xia Ruan about it. At that time, Xia Ruan used her cousin's name to let her practice calligraphy, making her think that her hand was going to be wasted.
Thinking of what Xia Ruan had done, Xia Wen was somewhat afraid.
For this. Her hatred for Xia Ruan deepened.
Fennel saw that Xia Wen didn't answer, so she started to prepare to clean up the dishes on the table.
Xia Wen sneered, then stood up from the chair, grabbed the soup bowl and threw it on the ground.
I only heard the crisp sound of the soup bowl falling on the marble floor.
Fennel was startled by Xia Wen's movements and didn't come back to her senses, and secretly thought in her heart, what is the fourth miss crazy today? Is it because a few days ago, the master, Mrs. and Miss went to Li's house and didn't take her with them, so she felt uncomfortable.
Fennel couldn't help but want to sneer, Xia Wen was something. If it weren't for Xia Wen, how could she be where she is today? Even into the third lady's Begonia Garden, etc., have to wait for half an hour.
"Fourth Miss, what's wrong?" Fennel scoffed, "Could it be that something unhappy has happened?" Even if you encounter something that blocks your heart, you can't vent it with the slave and maid, and the slave and maid haven't done anything wrong. ”
Xia Wen looked at Fennel contemptuously and said resentfully: "You also know that you are a slave, since you are a slave, you should have the appearance of a slave." People who don't know still think that you are the young lady and I am a slave...... Fennel, if you are so unruly again, I will definitely let the second aunt sell you to the flower street to make people miserable. ”
As soon as Fennel heard this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She crossed her hands on her hips and sneered, "You are so capable, and you want to sell slaves and maidservants to the kiln." Don't you look at whose house it belongs to...... Do you really think of yourself as the fourth lady of the Xia family? What do you eat and wear...... That's not what Miss Three took pity on you to use, and now you still want to be the master of this house, and you don't take a mirror to look at what kind of thing you are. ”
Xia Wen's eyes widened, and she trembled with anger.
She never thought that she would suffer such a wretched spirit when she arrived at the Xia family's house.
When she was in the countryside, she was always bullied by the people around her.
At that time, she was desperate to think that she would die in the countryside, after all, her parents were dead, who would remember her as a person?
However, someone gave her a chance to come back.
She was naturally unwilling to waste such an opportunity in vain.
It's just that I didn't expect that after she came back, life was still not going well.
The food every day is a big pot of rice, and only Li and Xia Ruan have a small kitchen in this house. Because of Empress Jiang's affairs, the Li family has not called her to eat with her for some days. She now eats vegetarian dishes every day, rarely sees meat, and the taste in her mouth fades.
What makes Xia Wen angry the most is that fennel eats better than her.
She is the fourth lady of the Xia family, and what is fennel? She's just a wild girl brought back outside......
Every time she thought of this, Xia Wen couldn't swallow, and she lost a lot of weight in just a few days.
"It's really presumptuous...... Xia Wen took a deep breath, pointed to the door and said to Fennel, "Get out, you are not allowed to enter Ruoya Pavilion from today on." ”
Fennel chirped: "Who is rare in Ruoya Pavilion? The fourth lady may not know, this morning the lady invited the lord and the young lady to eat venison in the Shadow Bamboo Garden, this is a good thing sent by the Chengguo Mansion, and the fourth lady naturally can't eat it. ”
After saying that, Fennel turned her head. I just want to leave.
Xia Wen was angry at this time because of fennel's words.
She looked around, and finally her eyes fell on the mutton soup bowl on the table. Xia Wen picked up the hot basin with both hands and shouted, "Fennel." ”
Fennel turned her head, and she was greeted by a piping hot lamb soup.
"Ah......h
……
At that time, Xia Ruan was sitting in the room, talking and laughing with the Li family.
"Ruan girl...... Have you heard about it lately? Li asked tentatively, "There seems to be something going on in the palace." ”
Xia Ruan raised her eyebrows and looked at her mother, and smiled: "What's the matter?" Did my grandfather tell my mother? ”
Li shook his head: "It was your third uncle who told me, it's really strange." ”
Li didn't figure it out. Her third brother would tell her these things. When she was a child, she often pestered her third brother to know about things in the court. Her third brother never mentioned it to her, and let her learn embroidery at home. So this time, Li Changfeng took the initiative to mention the matter in the palace to her, and the Li family felt somewhat strange.
Li Changfeng said to her casually at that time: "Fifth sister, the emperor has been sleeping and eating a few days ago. It is said that it is Ning Guiren...... Something seemed to be wrong with her. The child in her belly. Seems a little quirky...... Alas...... The royal family seems to have been plagued by disasters lately. ”
Li was slightly stunned at first. Ning Guiren is not Xia Qinghe.
Why did the third brother suddenly talk to her about Ning Guiren.
Could it be that the third brother also knows?
The Li family remembered that the third brother had met Xia Qinghe, but Ning Guiren was a harem concubine, and the third brother was just a courtier. How could it be possible to meet Ning Guiren?
Li felt a little uneasy.
This would have been good news for her. If something really happened to Ning Guiren and he lost the emperor's favor, then his daughter would be less dangerous......
Li has been thinking about this question for the past few days, and he feels somewhat strange.
The third brother shouldn't be such a person.
Xia Ruan was slightly stunned, covered his face and smiled: "Is my mother talking about Ning Guiren?" ”
Li Shi looked at Xia Ruan with a stunned expression: "You also know?" ”
"Got it." Xia Ruan nodded and whispered to her mother, "Not only I know, but many people in Kyoto know about it. Not only Ning Guiren had an accident, but it seems that the queen is also ...... The emperor put the queen under house arrest, and it is said that the queen is sick with anger. ”
After hearing this, Li's face was surprised.
Did something happen to the queen too?
After hearing these words from his daughter's mouth, Li felt a sense of relief in his heart.
The Jiang family has been acting mischiefly over the years, and the Jiang family has offended many powerful people by relying on being her third sister-in-law. For the Jiang family, the Li family doesn't have much good impression anymore.
She knew her brother better than anyone else.
Li Shi smiled dumbly, she may really be thinking too much.
How could the third brother know that Ning Guiren was Xia Qinghe?
"Hey......" Li thought for a while before he said, "Actually, if your third uncle had married a girl from the Song family, wouldn't it be much better?" ...... at the beginning"
If she obediently listened to her father's words and married to the Song family, then the third brother would have been much happier if she married Song Yingruo.
Xia Ruan's brows frowned slightly, and he said unhappily: "Why did my mother say this, the third uncle has his own measure. If he really likes Miss Song, he will definitely try his best to marry her into the door, how can he refuse for so many years. ”
Li Changfeng did not marry Song Yingruo, not only because of Li An, but also because there was no such person as Song Yingruo in his heart.
The third uncle categorically would not wronged himself.
For Song Yingruo, perhaps because she can't get it, she will never forget it.
Song Yingruo has been loved by General Song as a rare treasure since she was a child, and she will definitely get what she wants.
It's just that Li Changfeng is an exception.
Moreover, even if Song Yingruo really likes the third uncle, then the third uncle is not obliged to marry her.
Love is a consensual thing.
Li Shi listened, nodded, and said half-loudly: "What you said is also true, the third brother has always known proportion, and I think this matter is actually ......."
Before Li could speak, he heard a burst of heart-rending shouts outside the house.
Someone was shouting, "Miss...... Madam...... Help me! (To be continued......)
