Ranin

Du Ping lowered her eyes slightly, and her long eyelashes covered the envy and jealousy under her eyes.

In fact, this is not the first time that Du Ping has been invited by Du Zhiwei to enter the Orchid Academy.

It's just that every time she comes to the Orchid Courtyard, Du Ping can't help but be shocked by the graceful and luxurious furnishings of the Orchid Courtyard, and then she has a strong sense of envy, jealousy and hatred, and even secretly wonders countless times why she couldn't be born in the belly of the Qian family, so as to be a favored concubine in a long house like Du Zhiwei.

As for Du Zhixuan, the eldest daughter of the long house?

No matter in the past, or now, Du Zhixuan uncharacteristically likes simple and low-key furnishings, and those rare objects sent by the General's Mansion either went into the public treasury of the Hou Mansion, or into the private treasury of Qian and Du Zhiwei, and Du Zhixuan had no chance to see it at all.

However, even though Du Zhixuan paid a lot, she still couldn't get the gratitude of the three direct beneficiaries of the Houfu, including the old lady, Qian and Du Zhiwei, but on the contrary, she was more and more calculated and framed by others.

In this way, I can't disguise myself as Du Ping, who is not noticeable and "little transparent", how can I not sympathize and pity Du Zhixuan, the eldest daughter of the dignified mayor? Comparing her own status in the Houfu, how can she not have emotions such as happiness and joy?

In this year, Du Zhixuan's temperament has changed, and she firmly grasps the many objects sent by the General's Mansion, but Du Ping still can't have the slightest jealousy.

It's just that he couldn't get the old lady, Qian and Du Zhiwei from the rare objects of the General's Mansion as usual for more than ten years, and they frequently took action to rectify Du Zhixuan to the death, if it weren't for the grandmothers in the palace next to Du Zhixuan, now, what kind of miserable fate Du Zhixuan would have ended up in, it is unknown!

And it is precisely Du Zhixuan who is at the forefront and has pulled up the hatred value of the people in the Houfu that Du Ping and other concubines are no longer as worried as usual, for fear that one day, they will accidentally get in the way of their mother's eyes and be picked up and sent away by their mother-in-law at will.

……

It's a pity that even if Du Ping hides it well, Du Zhiwei, who has been paying attention to her since Yahuan sent refreshments and stepped down one after another, is keenly aware of the slightest hint of a star, and can't help but hook the corners of her mouth slightly, her long eyelashes tremble, and a touch of ridicule and mockery quickly pass under her eyes.

In this world, there are always those who have long hopes for Shu and eventually "are not greedy enough to swallow elephants".

Du Zhiwei blinked, holding back the churning emotions in her heart, a touch of worry appeared on her face, and she sighed: "I didn't expect the fourth sister to be so ruthless." ”

Du Ping was stunned for a moment, and soon, she softly defended Du Zhixuan: "Ninth sister, fourth sister has always been a kind person, presumably, you must have misunderstood her." ”

"It is said that 'it is better to settle a grievance than to settle it', not to mention, we are still sisters of the same father. If you have anything to say, you can spread it out and say it, as long as you make it clear, it's fine. ”

"Huh!" Du Zhiwei sneered and squinted at Du Ping, "Seventh sister, I won't mention it on the side, just a few years ago, how affectionate was the fourth sister to the prince of Wuhou?" Let's take a look, now, where is the fourth sister in Wuhou Wang Shizi?! ”

"In those years, in order to get a word of concern and a gentle smile from Wuhou Wang Shizi, the fourth sister has already offered all her dignity and arrogance, and let Wuhou Wang Shizi trample and **** wantonly, and is more willing to 'go up the knife mountain, go down to the sea of fire, and do whatever it takes' for the sake of Wuhou Wang Shizi!"

"The fourth sister who was so infatuated with the prince of Wuhou Wang, overnight, suddenly slashed the love silk with a sword. I don't know what happened in this, but I have always firmly believed in such a sentence - how can the feelings that have been given be easily recovered? ”

"If, the fourth sister hates the prince of Wuhou because she can't ask for it, and it is difficult to calculate the prince of Wuhou everywhere, that's it. After all, there are many stories of 'love and hate' in this world. However, the fourth sister actually regarded Wuhou Wang Shizi as a stranger who could be seen everywhere on the roadside. Don't you feel that something is wrong? ”

Du Ping pursed her lips, but put forward a different opinion: "Perhaps, the fourth sister inadvertently bumped into a private meeting between Wuhou Wang Shizi and his favorite girl, so she could not bear to give up this relationship in order to fulfill Wuhou Wang Shizi and his favorite girl." And this is also the reason why Du Zhixuan and Wuhou Wang Shizi broke off the marriage contract.

Du Zhiwei didn't answer and asked: "Do you believe it?" ”

Du Ping lowered her eyes slightly, with a look of struggle and hesitation.

"Seventh sister, I know that no one in this huge waiting house is as smart as you."

"You, but the real 'heart has seven tricks'!"

Du Zhiwei's eyes flashed, and a faint smile appeared on her face, as if she was very happy to have a sister like Du Ping who was good at hiding her skills, and as if she could understand Du Ping's helplessness in choosing such a path. If someone who doesn't know Du Zhiwei's nature so well comes over, I'm afraid that Du Zhiwei will immediately feel that Du Zhiwei cares about herself from the bottom of her heart, so that she will completely open her heart to Du Zhiwei.

Du Ping's heart was light, but her face was replaced with a touching expression, and a faint flush appeared on her cheeks because of Du Zhiwei's praise: "The ninth sister has won the award, you are the most intelligent and clever girl in the Houfu, dignified and virtuous, talented and beautiful, knowledgeable and knowledgeable!" ”

In this way, after the two of them praised each other for a while, Du Zhiwei brought back the topic that had already gone off the rails again: "Speaking of which, a long time ago, I had a bad premonition. ”

Speaking of this, Du Zhiwei paused deliberately, pursed her lips lightly, and there was a rare touch of helplessness and panic between the corners of her eyes and eyebrows: "Since the fourth sister can even say that he will abandon the prince of Wuhou, who has been in love for nearly five years, then will we, the sisters who are not very close to the fourth sister, follow in the footsteps of the prince of Wuhou?" ”

"When that time comes......" Du Zhiwei's expression was gloomy, "We, who are plagued by all kinds of gossip and are almost about to be ruined, will we be abandoned by Houfu without hesitation?" ”

Du Ping's lips moved, wanting to say something, but Du Zhiwei waved her hand to stop her.

"I know what you're going to say." Du Zhiwei smiled bitterly, "Even if the fourth sister has been notorious in the past ten years, grandmother and other elders still haven't made any severe punishment to the fourth sister. ”

"But, Seventh Sister, have you forgotten something? If there were no generals in the general's mansion who frequently sent people to give gifts to the fourth sister, if there was no unprincipled favor of the generals in the general's mansion to treat the fourth sister, 'if you want the moon and never give the stars', what do you think will happen to the fourth sister who smeared the Houfu and tired our sisters? ”

"This is the luck of the fourth sister." Du Zhiwei shook her head, "And, when it falls on us, it will be our misfortune." (To be continued.) )
