Chapter 17: Fight Back Again
After Li Guiyue listened, she smiled: "This matter is indeed ridiculous, but it is very unlikely to happen." Now there are guides for marrying, and the elders of both families are all agreeable, so it is impossible to go to the wrong house. ”
"Yes, if it weren't for the fact that the boy had some connection with the girl of the Li family, he wouldn't have made a mistake by hanging the lantern." Qin Wanyi said meaningfully.
But Li Guiyue still didn't understand Qin Wanyi's words, she just laughed at it as an ordinary anecdote.
Qin Wanyi felt that Li Guiyue didn't understand, and then said, "Mother, let's go see our father now." The child hasn't gone to see him properly today. ”
"Uh-huh, let's go."
Li Guiyue was just about to put the clothes given by Aunt Zhang back in the closet, but Qin Wanyi said with deep meaning: "This dress is really beautiful, but it's a pity that my mother will wear it at my grandmother's birthday banquet in a few days." If the mother wears it on her birthday, that's the focus of everyone. ”
Li Guiyue was stunned in her heart, she looked at Qin Wanyi, but the other party had already turned her gaze away, as if she had said this sentence unintentionally.
Looking at the dress in her hand, Li Guiyue faintly felt that something was wrong. This color ...... It's really too noisy, if you get into trouble at the birthday banquet, I'm afraid it's not good for Qin Wanyi.
Li Guiyue has been frugal all these years, for fear that others will say a bad word about her. But the more she is like this, the more estranged the Qin family becomes.
There is only one reason, she is the daughter of the Qiangsheng family, the Li family. Her identity is incompatible with the Qin family, and those who are alienated from her are more or less influenced by Aunt Zhang.
Then, Li Guiyue put the clothes away, and she felt that Qin Wanyi seemed to be reminding herself intentionally or unintentionally that she couldn't wear this dress.
"Wan'er, you really helped my mother a lot."
"Mother, these are all realized by yourself, what does it have to do with your daughter?"
Li Guiyue smiled with relief, she always felt that this daughter who had just returned from the countryside was very knowledgeable about people and worldliness, and she didn't take credit for helping.
Seeing that Qin Wanyi was so sensible, Li Guiyue decided to say something from her heart: "Wan'er, how much do you know about the Li family?" ”
"Is it the family behind my mother? I've heard people say that the honor of the Li family seems to be far superior to that of the Qin family. ”
What Qin Wanyi heard from her subordinates was not a good word, but in order not to make Li Guiyue sad, she rounded up her words.
Li Guiyue replied lightly: "Well, in fact, the Li family and the Qin family are world friends. It's just that before the new emperor ascended the throne at that time, the Li family and the Qin family stood on opposite sides. ”
"So, the prosperity of the Li family is influenced by the new emperor?" Qin Wanyi asked.
Li Guiyue nodded: "The prince supported by the Li family became the new emperor, so the Qin family was suppressed by the new emperor and finally had to withdraw from the imperial court. ”
Hearing this, Qin Wanyi was able to understand why the Qin family treated Li Guiyue so coldly. The Qin family has lost its previous glory, and these have something to do with the Li family's support for the new emperor.
Such a person stayed in the Qin family, and anyone who looked at it felt uncomfortable.
Li Guiyue continued: "Even though the Li family and the Qin family have some grievances, my love affair with your father has not been affected by this incident. ”
After saying that, a happy smile appeared on her face. Qin Wanyi knew that Li Guiyue loved Qin Langhong deeply, so she could tolerate the Qin family's offense to her.
"Mother, I didn't expect that the Qin family and the Li family still had such a relationship. But I'm a girl, so I don't want to ask. ”
Li Guiyue rarely had such a sensible daughter, and she suddenly talked about her guilt again: "Wan'er, don't blame your mother." You went to the countryside to recuperate, and your birth date and the old lady clashed, and it will take more than ten years to eliminate the impact. ”
"Mother, I never blamed you. And it's not up to you to decide, right? ”
At this moment, Li Guiyue has turned forbearance into a habit, she knows that the Qin family treats her badly, but she still does not borrow the power of the Li family behind her to fight back.
Because Li Guiyue understands that she is forbearance like this because she is waiting for her daughter who has been staying in the countryside, and it is also for the sake of Qin Langhong, whom she loves.
But she was so forbearing, but she didn't know that she connived at the ambitious Aunt Zhang. is obviously a concubine, but in the end she enjoys the treatment of a wife.
Qin Wanyi looked at the big red dress in the cabinet: "Mother, do you still want to wear that dress now?" ”
"No, I always feel that it is inappropriate to wear it at the old lady's birthday party."
"Since my mother doesn't wear it, how about giving it to my grandmother?"
Hearing this, Li Guiyue was startled: "This can't be helped, how can the clothes I wear be left for the old lady?" ”
"But my mother hasn't worn it yet, has she?"
Li Guiyue hesitated for a while, then nodded: "Indeed, no matter how you look at this dress, it suits the old lady, and I don't wear it on my body......"
"So, did grandmother prepare the clothes for the birthday party?" Qin Wanyi asked her.
Li Guiyue pondered for a while: "It's not ...... Originally, the old lady made three sets of clothes, but because there was a problem with the workmanship of one of them, it could not be completed for the time being. And the old lady is throwing a tantrum over this matter. ”
After Qin Wanyi learned about this, she felt that these were probably deliberately arranged by Aunt Zhang, first to make Mrs. Qin's birthday clothes go wrong, and then to give Li Guiyue such gorgeous clothes.
If Aunt Zhang had deliberately spilled wine on her clothes after Li Guiyue had stolen the limelight from Mrs. Qin that day, then the red clothes would have turned white......
"Mother, if you think it's not good to give it to the old lady in your own name, then send it out in the name of Aunt Zhang. Anyway, this dress was also made by her, and no one would say anything. ”
Li Guiyue suddenly thought of something: "But when Aunt Zhang gave me this set of clothes, there were two maids present, and I took advantage of Aunt Zhang's public opinion to give it to the old lady, I'm afraid it will be inappropriate......"
She still hesitated, after all, caution had become a habit.
Qin Wanyi sneered in her heart, this Aunt Zhang was really prepared, the two maids present were estimated to have been sent outside the Qin Mansion by Aunt Zhang, so that there was a problem with the clothes Li Guiyue was wearing, and she couldn't find anyone to confront her, so she became speechless.
It's a pity that Aunt Zhang was smart but was mistaken by being smart! She never imagined that Li Guiyue would give the clothes to Mrs. Qin, in this way, Aunt Zhang could not prove that she had sent clothes to Li Guiyue before, but instead dug a big hole for herself!
Li Guiyue was persuaded, she finally found a delicate wooden box to pack the clothes, and then asked two trustworthy maids to send them out in the name of Aunt Zhang.
