After a long silence, Du Ping suddenly smiled bitterly: "Mother, I understand what you said." ”

Yes, from the beginning, Du Zhiwei did not pay attention to Du Ping's subtle changes, and was ready to push her out at a critical moment and bear the anger of everyone.

But even so, what can be done?

In the final analysis, Du Zhiwei is the crystallization of the love between Du Shilang and Qian, even if she bluntly told Du Ping to do something, she couldn't refuse, let alone resist.

This point has not changed in any way because of Du Zhiwei's threats and temptations.

It is precisely because of this that Du Ping hates Du Zhixuan, the eldest daughter of the long house, and takes revenge on Du Zhixuan for the unfair treatment she received from Du Zhiwei, and wants to indulge arrogantly because of Du Zhixuan's weak and stupid behavior without resistance.

Now, even if Du Ping gave a generous gift, apologized to Du Zhixuan, and shifted all the responsibility for the frequent actions in the past to trick and calculate Du Zhixuan on Du Zhiwei and Qian and others, it would be to no avail.

Everything, just because of Du Zhixuan's intelligence and cleverness, calm and wise, sharp teeth, and unforgiving nature of retribution.

There was an eerie silence in the room.

In this quiet environment where even a needle fell to the ground, Aunt Hu suddenly sighed, looked at Du Ping's eyes full of pity and chagrin, and reached out to caress Du Ping's head: "Ping'er, everything is my mother's fault." ”

"If, my mother could personally raise and teach you back then, or, even if the Qian family rejected my mother's request, she tried her best to take care of you a little more, instead of being disheartened after several consecutive encounters, staying in the house and concentrating on worshipping the Buddha in order to cultivate your self-cultivation, presumably, you will not be instigated by the Qian family and Du Zhiwei, and it will be difficult to calculate Du Zhixuan everywhere, and become a 'gun for the two of them to deal with Du Zhixuan'."

"Mother, these are all over." Du Ping said with difficulty, otherwise, what can you do? Aunt Hu's identity as the Oiran of the Qinglou alone is destined to her lowest status in the Yongcheng Waiting Mansion, and even the old lady, the Qian family, the second-room Yu family and the third-room Wang family's handsome housekeepers can look down on her because of this.

Obviously, Aunt Hu also thought of this, and couldn't help but feel annoyed again that she was young and vigorous back then, and she had offended such a vicious clan lord because of a trivial matter, coupled with the fall of several other sisters in the clan who looked at her very unpleasantly on weekdays, and finally made her fall into such a miserable situation now.

The only fortunate thing is that she gave birth to a smart and decisive girl like Du Ping, knowing that her status in the Houfu is different from that of others, she tried her best to hide her knowledge and skills in the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting female red housekeeper, and gave people a sense of being unvalued, so that she could survive smoothly, and did not die at an early age, let alone be hostile, calculated and framed by the people in the Houfu like Du Zhixuan.

"It's a pity......" Aunt Hu looked at Du Ping with pity, her eyes were full of regret and sighs, if a girl like Du Ping was born in another family, she would definitely be supported by the strength of the clan.

However, soon, Aunt Hu snuffed out the undeserved thoughts in her mind, patted Du Ping's arm, her eyes flashed, and said, "Ping'er, I remember, you have always been close to the eldest lady?" ”

Du Ping blinked in surprise, although she didn't quite understand why Aunt Hu, who knew the real intimacy between the people in the Houfu and Du Yu, the eldest girl who was quite favored by the old lady, suddenly said this, but in the past ten years, Du Ping, who had always acted according to Aunt Hu's orders, was keenly aware of it.

"Mother, you mean?"

"It is said that 'the icing on the cake is better than sending charcoal in the snow'." The corners of Aunt Hu's mouth were slightly hooked, and there was a cunning and calculating look between the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, "No matter what the eldest lady does, you need to remember that her biological mother, Aunt Li, is the old lady's maiden niece, a famous concubine in the long house, and has always been taken by the old lady to learn and upbring." ”

Even raising a cat and dog can give birth to endless sympathy and pity, let alone feed such a big living person as Du Yu!

"If I guess correctly, I'm just afraid that it won't be long before the Anwang Mansion will elevate the eldest lady."

Although, until now, Aunt Hu still doesn't quite understand why King An's eldest son still knows Du Yu's identity and status in Yongcheng Houfu, but still makes Du Yu a nameless concubine such a blatant slap in the face, but this does not prevent her from getting a glimpse of some hidden truths behind the scenes.

Du Ping pursed her lips, and a rare touch of sympathy and pity appeared in her eyes: "Then, do I need to prepare some gifts in advance, send someone to King An's Mansion, and hand them over to the eldest sister?" ”

"Of course." Aunt Hu nodded and tapped Du Ping's forehead, "You girl, but you are upset for the eldest lady?" ”

Du Ping smiled, not knowing how to talk about it.

Aunt Hu shook her head, and looked at Du Ping with a look of "hating iron does not become steel": "If I guess correctly, I'm afraid that the reason why the eldest lady falls in love with King An's eldest son is that Madame is indispensable behind this matter." If it weren't for this, the old lady would not have prepared so many dowries beyond the status of the eldest lady, and sent them all to King An's mansion. ”

"If the lady did not use her hands and feet in the eldest lady's dowry, presumably, the old lady, who has always cared about these 'things outside the body', will inevitably feel heartache every time she thinks about it. In the long run, it is not difficult to smooth out the special status and image of the eldest lady in the old lady's heart. ”

"It's a pity that Madame's 'smart life, confused for a while', actually took revenge on Aunt Li, the noble concubine who often gambled on her and fought against her more than once, and openly and secretly instructed those stewards to ignore the eldest lady's dowry, and misestimated the importance of the eldest lady's dowry to King An's eldest son, resulting in the eldest lady failing to become a side concubine according to the original oral agreement between the two mansions, how can the old lady who learned the news not be annoyed with the eldest lady at the same time?!"

"And, after the old lady specially sent someone to pack up a large number of items that were not inferior to the eldest lady's previous dowry list, sent them to King An's mansion and handed them over to the eldest lady, two months have passed.

Du Ping nodded frequently, and suddenly realized: "Mother, then I will immediately send someone to pack up some valuable things when I turn around, and send a person who is articulate, so that when the eldest sister asks about the affairs in the house, she can tell them in the original, clearly, and in detail."

Aunt Hu looked at Du Ping with relief and appreciation, and was very satisfied that Du Ping could "draw inferences" from one another, and the worries and fears that appeared in her heart slowly subsided a little because of this. (To be continued.) )
