"Father, he just wants me to send green berries?"

"So Mother said it's not difficult, tomorrow the carriage will take you to the ferry, and then the butler will take you to the boat."

"Still want a boat?"

"Don't be afraid, after listening to your mother's words, after the housekeeper sends you on the boat, you just need to go to the island in the middle of the pearl lake, give the green berries to the people above, and then take the boat back, it will be done."

Yuan Xiyue's expression at this time returned to his previous stupidity, staring at the green berries in the fruit bowl motionless. It's just that her mind is racing at this time.

Situ Juan thought that she could scare her by means of intimidation, but in fact, she had just revealed an important information, she said that she was helping her father deliver things, not helping her, and the reason was definitely not in the inner house, but in her father's business.

Why would the other party want something like green berries, Yuan Xiyue couldn't figure it out for the time being, but she couldn't see the reason by not letting others go, the other party must have wanted her to be a hostage, and if something happened, she would be detained. Since it's my father's business, it's a hostage......

Yuan Xiyue showed an imperceptible smile.

And Situ Juan looked at her dull appearance, and she had long lost her patience.

"Xiyue, good daughter, if you don't speak, your mother will take you as an answer?"

"Please ask your mother to let the second sister go for such an important matter, the second sister is smart and clever, and she will definitely be able to live up to her father's expectations." Yuan Xiyue suddenly turned her face and said loudly, and after speaking, she didn't forget to stare at Situ Juan, and continued to look at her with sincere eyes.

Situ Juan was suddenly startled when she saw this look, and she was even more puzzled in her heart, this girl is not stupid, how can this girl know the jealousy in her heart?

"Why did you suddenly mention Yushan, today is about you. If you don't go, your father won't be able to deal with him. Cui'er's fifty boards are probably inevitable. ”

Situ Juan's tone was already threatening, and at this time she could only try her best to suppress the panic in her heart, as for the image of a loving mother that she had been creating before, she had long been unable to take care of it.

"Actually, if there wasn't anything about Cui'er today, my mother would have been ready to let me go on this trip."

Yuan Xiyue looked at the deepening anger in Situ Juan's eyes, and said what she thought unhurriedly.

"Since it is a matter that my father confessed, I am afraid that it is not just as simple as involving the female relatives of the inner house, and my mother does not mention letting others go on this trip, I am afraid that it is because the other party has specific requirements for the person who will send things. And my mother was so afraid that I mentioned the second sister just now, so it can be seen that Xiyue is not the only candidate who meets the other party's requirements. ”

At this time, Yuan Xiyue could already see that Situ Juan's body was already trembling slightly, but she still continued to speak as if she hadn't seen it.

"And Xiyue has always been stupid, no better than the second sister who got the true inheritance of her mother, smart and knowledgeable, I believe that she will be able to live up to her father's expectations."

"You...... You...... Aren't you afraid that I'll beat you to death? ”

"Mother laughed, this inner house has always been the mother's decision, how can a maid's life be as important as the second sister in the eyes of the mother? So don't take Cui'er's life as a threat, if your mother is afraid that today's events will be difficult to convince the public, please ask your mother to beat all these fifty boards to Xiyue, don't talk about the whole family at that time, even the top and bottom of this Linzhou Mansion will not say that your mother is unfair. ”

This little slut, is this using her reputation as a stepmother to threaten her? Situ Juan was already furious in her heart, everyone knew that in which dynasty and generation, the reputation of this stepmother for abusing her stepchildren was very difficult to hear, and it would even affect her husband's official reputation.

But Situ Juan couldn't scold it on her face, otherwise the image of this hard-working virtuous lady would not be able to hold back. But she didn't expect that in this confrontation just now, her image had fallen to an all-time low.

Now she was only clinging to the armrests of the chair, and her finger joints were faintly white. Yu's mother next to her hurriedly stroked her back, and also served a cup of tea, but was pushed aside by Situ Juan, and a lot of tea was spilled.

Now Situ Juan didn't care about the soiled dress, she just glared at the thin girl in front of her viciously, as if she could take an extra piece of meat from her body with one more look.

But Yuan Xiyue looked at Situ Juan playfully, she was waiting, waiting for the woman in front of her who just thought that she had won the machine to completely lose confidence, so how things develop next depends on her wishes.

Finally seeing Situ Juan leaning back dejectedly, Yuan Xiyue felt that the time was ripe and slowly spoke.

"Actually...... It's not like things are out of the way. Saying this, Yuan Xiyue couldn't help but want to laugh, and in a moment, the person who said this sentence changed from Situ Juan to her.

"Mother wants Xiyue to go on this trip, it's just that Xiyue is used to doing rough work, and she is more suitable for going out on adventures than her pampered second sister. The second sister is also my own sister, and of course Xiyue can't bear to watch the second sister suffer. My mother entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, and as a daughter, of course, I didn't want my mother to be embarrassed. ”

Saying that, Yuan Xiyue took out a few sheets from his arms and spread them out in a fan shape for Situ Juan to see.

"Mother must understand the truth that there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and she is happy with a little girl, of course, she also hopes to have some rewards to be brave. However, Xiyue doesn't need her mother to give another reward this time, she just hopes that her mother will return all the things on these gift lists to her daughter for safekeeping. ”

Yu's mother hurriedly came up and took the list and handed it to Situ Juan, who looked at it and felt that the suspicion in her heart was even heavier.

"These lists are not ......"

"Yes, it is the same gift that my aunt gives to Hyat every year on her birthday and New Year's birthday, and my mother may not know that my aunt makes a separate list of these gifts for Hyatt to keep every year. In the past few years, these gifts have been kept by the mother, and now that the daughter has grown up, since she can help her parents share their worries, please ask the mother not to treat her daughter as a child anymore, and ask the mother to give these gifts to her daughter today for safekeeping. ”

Situ Juan was speechless today by this series of blows, and the figure of the villain in front of her seemed to coincide with the figure she feared and wanted to defeat the most in her memory. Today's favorite red dress for the main room seems to look extremely dull in front of this tackyly dressed child.

finally came back to her senses, and she realized that this girl seemed to have premeditated, otherwise why did she even carry these lists with her? But this is not just an ordinary few clothes, a few pieces of jewelry. Any small earring is worth hundreds of taels of silver, Yuan Xiyue's aunt's family is a huge rich man in Chongzhou, and several sons are doing business abroad, and these boxes of things add up to tens of thousands of taels casually.

Situ Juan originally planned to keep these valuable jewelry for Yuan Yushan as a dowry, who knew that this little slut wanted to take this opportunity to take them back without any left, how could Situ Juan not hate?

But looking at Yuan Xiyue's appearance of an old god, Situ Juan immediately thought that the safety of her daughter is the most important thing, you can take these things away now, and I can always find a way to get them back intact in the future.

"These things were originally yours, and my mother also saw that you were still young, so I kept them for you for the time being, since you want to keep them yourself now, then let someone carry them back to your room."

"Then thank you mother." Yuan Xiyue looked at Situ Juan's liver pain, and couldn't help but want to laugh out loud, this person seems to be used to being powerful, and he hasn't suffered this kind of blow for a long time.

"Dear stepmother, this is just a small goal, I want to get back everything you took away." Yuan Xiyue thought confidently.
