Chapter 27: Cheeky
Shen Ruoyu was a little irritable in her heart.
She has never liked Yang Yuying, and she doesn't have any deep hatred, it's just trivial matters.
I remember that more than two years ago, the Rongguo Mansion held a flower appreciation banquet, and Yang Yuying took her with her, which was the first time she participated in the banquet of the Beijing Mansion, and it was also the first time she saw the life of the nobles in the capital.
The food, clothing, housing and transportation are so exquisite that she can't even imagine it.
What's even more enviable is that people just think it's ordinary.
She dreamed of completely integrating into that kind of life, but she couldn't, Yang Yuying seemed to be able to get it by reaching out, but she always had a very uncommon face.
Until now, she can't forget that day, Xia Zhiming, one of the two peers in the capital, also came to the banquet, Xia Gongzi was warm and affectionate, just like the bright moon in the sky, and there was no arrogance between the eyebrows and eyes of the sons of the capital.
She really couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and wanted to find a chance to say a few words to Xia Gongzi by getting drunk, but she didn't expect to hear Xia Gongzi's friends laughing with him and chatting about the ladies of Rongguo Mansion.
Xia Gongzi only said: "I don't recognize the young lady next to me, and I don't know it, only Miss Yang, who is arrogant, a hero among women, and Brother Shen is really fortunate to marry her." ”
These few words are nothing.
Xia Gongzi just mentioned a lady in the capital when chatting with friends.
But Shen Ruoyu didn't know why, he just had a mustache.
How different is Yang Yuying from her? Born in the countryside, her identity in Rongguo Mansion is also so embarrassing, what is she?
Especially when she saw Xia Gongzi later, she didn't know each other, and from then on, she seemed to have a hole in her heart, and it hurt when she touched it, and she was dripping with blood.
It's just that this kind of unspeakable troubles can't be mentioned to anyone, and I can't even explain it to my mother.
With the work of shaking the gods, the Zhumen cave opened.
With a slender physique, a sword at his waist, and a lean little guy invited them in with a straight face.
When Shen Ruoyu stepped into the door, her expression was cold and reserved, with a little resentment, Shen's mother frowned lightly, and she had a stomach to say, the two of them were full of momentum, but along the way, they were shocked.
I thought that Yang Yuying's life should be very bad, but I didn't expect that she lived in a mansion in the capital that was far from comparable, with servants like clouds, each performing its own duties, and the posture of a big family.
Walking through the doorway and into the verandah, the mother and daughter's bodies gradually weakened, and their waists bent down slightly.
Shen Ruoyu gritted her teeth, only feeling sad, they have been miserable these days, and even the clothes they wear when they go out are down, but look at people, they are luxurious everywhere.
Shen's mother's face seemed to be worried and happy, angry for a while, and shocked for a while, she walked to the flower hall of Yuxiu Building, looked up and saw Yang Yuying sitting on the main seat with a scroll, and looked at it calmly, before she suddenly came back to her senses.
"Old Madam Shen, Miss Shen, come to visit early in the morning, but what's the matter?"
Yang Yuying stretched out her hand to beckon the two of them to sit down, and the maid next to her, NPC Jiang, brought tea over slightly.
[Name: Jiang Weiwei, the maid of Yang Yuying, president of the Holy Light Society, scope of activities: The residence of the Holy Light Society. The appearance is cold, the personality is rough, the teeth are sharp, and the mouth is sharp, and he loves to scare people the most. Note: It's best not to eat the food she cooks, and it's best not to drink the tea she makes, because it is bitter and spicy. 】
Yang Yuying glanced at the various labels on the heads of NPCs in her own station, some emphasizing personality, some emphasizing specialties, of course, most of them only have names, but they are also finely done, and the gold coins consumed as their salaries every day are still valuable.
Shen's mother's eyes suddenly turned red, and she cried silently: "Tell me about your child, why is your temper so big, you have been wronged, your mother must be the master for you, why bother to fight with Bin'er, what is a man like, my mother is a person who has come over, I know very well, they are all masters who eat soft and not hard, you should talk to him well, be soft, even if you cry and beg, it is better than making trouble with him hard." ”
Before the old lady finished speaking, Yang Yuying laughed.
The two little maids next to him couldn't help laughing, Jiang covered his lips with his sleeves slightly, and rolled his eyes at Shen's mother with a big grin.
"How can our young lady be soft? Admit that your surname is not Yang, but Zhao? By the order of Shen Da County, enjoy the blessings of all people? For the sake of a man with one or two legs everywhere, crying and begging, humiliating the Yang family? ”
Mother Shen was so angry that her brain buzzed, and she trembled: "Where did you come from, stinky girl, palm mouth, not palm mouth!" ”
"Tsk, even the emperor thinks that the punishment in the palace is too heavy, and refuses to punish the palace maid with his likes and dislikes, you are an old lady, you are more spirited than the emperor!"
Several maids in the flower hall pursed their lips and smiled.
Shen's mother's eyes were dazzled, and she turned her head to look at Yang Yuying: "Yu Niang, you are also a big boss, you should be sensible, what is Zhao Jin's fox calculating, that is, he entered the door of our house, and he is also a concubine, how can he compare with you?" If you want to deal with her, your mother will help you! ”
The old lady's face was a little scary.
Yang Yuying was really worried that Shen's mother would die in her flower hall, and it would be inconvenient to deal with it, so she hurriedly waved her hand to signal Jiang Weiwei to go down, and said with a smile: "Old Madam Shen can't say these words in the future, let people hear it, it's not good for Lord Shen." ”
"A few years ago, His Majesty issued a decree prohibiting the children of the royal family and court officials from taking concubines and lingering in brothels."
"Shen County's order is now a lowly official, others don't care about him, he pretends to be blind and deaf, he just doesn't know His Majesty's will, and he accepts a few concubines, and no one cares."
"But as the daughter of the Yang family, I don't dare to take the laws of the imperial court seriously, and I will make peace with Shen County, which is good for both parties."
"Peace has become a fact, and I, Yang Yuying, have nothing to do with Shen Ruobin."
Yang Yuying's expression was light, but her tone was not cold and hard, as if she was talking about today's weather and what she had eaten tonight.
Mother Shen was stunned for a moment, and said for a while: "Where is it so strict, those princes and grandsons in the capital...... I didn't see a few beauties missing. ”
Yang Yuying smiled lightly: "Now that Shen Gongzi wants to be a beautiful person, you love me, no one can care, as long as Mrs. Zhao is generous." ”
Indeed, the emperor's decree was of little use.
For a long time, the imperial court did not support officials to take concubines, and there were various restrictions in this regard, ordinary officials could have a maximum of two concubines, but in private, there were many concubines raised by officials, but they were not 'certified' by the imperial court.
A while ago, there was an envoy who said to the court in front of him that His Majesty had made a chaotic decree and made a decision with a pat on the head.
Yang Yuying's expression was very cold: "I will have guests for a while, if there is nothing to do, I will not leave the two." ”
Shen's mother choked, obviously she didn't expect that her daughter-in-law, who had always been filial and considerate before, would not give her any face.
The little maid beside Yang Yuying also has a nose that is not a nose, and her eyes are not eyes: "I dare to come to the door, I am not small, this is Shen Ruobin's interest, and he obediently left with our young lady, if he dragged it and didn't leave, I don't know the sword of the owner of Ouyang Zhuang in our family, and whether he recognizes who his surname is Shen!" ”
Shen's mother's face was gloomy, and she glared at the little maid viciously, she was not thin-skinned in the end, and she was swept away, and she only treated Yang Yuying as a petty person, shook her head and sighed: "The old body is naturally in trouble." Yu Niang, you are now living in a barren mountain, the news is not well-informed, my mother told you, half a month ago, His Majesty decreed, the state capital selected outstanding college students to report, selected the top ten or so, and entered Beijing to participate in the evaluation. ”
