Chapter 4 Auntie
"Deal! However, I also have one condition. ”
Meng Yeqian nodded and did not ask what Yun Qingyi's conditions were. This woman is a smart person, and what she proposes must be able to do by herself.
"Then, you only need to be admitted to the Imperial Academy now."
Yun Qingyi was favored by King Qi, and the matter of being selected as a quasi-princess spread throughout the capital. Everyone knows that the Yun family has a concubine with a big birthmark on her face and an ugly appearance. It is indeed unbelievable that such a woman can be favored by King Qi, and rumors spread for a while, saying everything.
However, Yun Qingyi's status in the mansion has also changed because of this. was originally unpopular and bullied everywhere, but now that he has flown on the branches and become a phoenix, it is naturally indispensable to flatter and pull the relationship. In this Yun Mansion, in addition to Yun Qingyi's low status, there are also several aunts who have never been concubines, so they are also being looked down upon and bullied.
That is, he is still young and has some appearance, which makes Yun Fei happy, so that he can survive in the mansion. Now that Yun Qing is in power, she will be the princess of Qi immediately, and naturally some people want to win her over.
Yun Qingyi was holding a medical research book in the study, and Poria cocos ran in from outside, panting.
"Poria cocos, what's wrong with you? Is there a dog chasing you behind? Yun Qingyi put down the medical book in her hand and asked with a frown.
"No, Miss, Seven...... Aunt Seven is coming this way. Poria said as she bent over and gasped.
Yun Qingyi thought for a while, and then remembered that there was a young and beautiful seventh aunt in this mansion who was not very favored. To say that these seven aunts, although they were born as beautiful as flowers and enchanting, they came from Willow Lane, Yanjie. At the beginning, Yun Feiqi was young, beautiful, and good at singing and dancing, so he married home and became the seventh aunt.
However, after a long time, it is inevitable that you will get tired of watching it, and you will fall out of favor in less than a year. In this deep mansion compound, if a woman has no place and is not favored, I am afraid that she will have to live a hard life for the rest of her life.
Therefore, as soon as the seventh aunt heard that Yun Qingyi had been selected as the princess of Qi, she hurried to curry favor. Pull the relationship or secondly, she also wants to find out the bottom, how did Yun Qingyi, who has a birthmark on her face, win the pity of King Qi?
"It turned out to be her. She's coming, what are you fussing about? Yun Qingyi looked at Poria helplessly and said.
"Miss! Why don't you think about it! Now, you have been elected as the princess of Zhun Qi, and everyone in this capital knows about it. These seven aunts are not good! Poria said seriously.
"Your young lady, I, have already used our brains. Aunt Seven, she is not favored by her father, and she has no powerful family to rely on, so she is worse than me. How can she have the capital to provoke? Eighty percent saw that I was gaining power and came to slap us up! Go and wait at the door, and ask someone to get a pot of tea! Yun Qingyi waved his hand and said easily.
After listening to Yun Qingyi's words, Poria felt that she was too worried, or her own young lady was right, Aunt Seven's situation was not as good as them, how could she have the capital to find fault.
While the master and servant were talking, there was already a jumble of footsteps outside, and they were getting closer and closer. After a while, a crisp and pleasant sound came from outside.
"Is Miss Qingyi here?"
"Aunt Seven, our young lady is inside." Poria hurriedly went out to respond.
Before the words fell, a graceful beauty stood in front of Yun Qingyi, and Yun Qingyi suddenly felt that her eyes lit up. Not to mention the background and temperament of these seven aunts, just looking at how delicate and charming she looks like is annoying.
"Aunt Seven, what kind of wind blew you here today. Usually, my small yard is a place where a leaf and a bird don't want to fall, Aunt Seven, why did you have Yaxing come to me! ”
Although this seventh aunt looks kind, Yun Qingyi can't make her feel that she is easy to deal with, so there are some thorns in her words, let's see the reaction of the seventh aunt.
"Oh, look at what you said, it's like I have a grudge against you! The two of us, in this cloud mansion, are not the same fallen people at the end of the world! Before, I didn't come, and it wasn't because I didn't like you. It's not daring to offend those individuals, it's different now. You have become the princess of Zhun Qi, and the capital has spread all over the city. They don't dare to talk nonsense! ”
The seventh aunt was sharp and sharp, avoiding its edge, but she clarified her position. Yun Qingyi secretly said in her heart, this look, coupled with this wit, being a seventh aunt in this mansion is indeed wronged her.
"Aunt Seven, you are really a smart person, you know how to see the wind and steer the rudder!"
The seventh aunt smiled, turned around and waved her hand outside, and came in three fourth-class maid rings, but each holding a delicate small wooden box in her hand. There were also a few family members with silk in their arms.
At this time, Poria happened to come in with tea, and when she saw these people holding something in their arms, she was stunned. She has served Yun Qingyi in the mansion since she was a child, because Yun Qingyi has not been loved by Yun Yi since she was a child, so her status in the mansion is also very poor. Therefore, Poria has never seen so many good things.
"Qingyi, these things are for you." Aunt Seven said with a smile.
Yun Qingyi sat there, looking at those things with a flat face, and did not move. Seeing that Yun Qing was unmoved, the seventh aunt opened a delicate small box, and suddenly a burst of white light shone. Inside pearls and jadeite, fine gold and silver jewelry, everything.
Poria stood aside, her mouth opened wide in surprise, she didn't expect that this seventh aunt really had some family background, it seems that this time she really made a lot of money to win over Yun Qingyi. Yun Qingyi looked at the jewels shining in front of her, and secretly calculated in her heart what she could do if she exchanged these jewels for silver.
"Aunt Seven, you are too polite. These gifts must have been your savings for many years, in this deep mansion compound, you are helpless, and you have given these to me, what will you rely on in the future? Besides, I don't need that. You'd better take it back. Yun Qing said slowly.
Poria looked at Yun Qingyi with a calm and calm look on the side, and muttered in her heart, why does Miss seem to have changed these days. It's a bit incomprehensible, especially now, with such an expression, as if something is brewing, quite a bit of a housewife's posture.
"These are all things I saved in my early years, thinking that one day I would redeem myself and marry a good man. Now, I am the seventh aunt of Yunfu, and these things are naturally useless to me. I'll keep it at the bottom of the box, so I'd better give it to you. You are still young, and you still have a long way to go to become a princess in the future. You just stay, it will come in handy one day. As the seventh aunt spoke, she gently patted the back of Yun Qingyi's hand.
After the seventh aunt said this, she got up and said goodbye, and these things were kept. Yun Qingyi took Poria to send Aunt Seven to the outside of the courtyard, looking at her lonely and weakened back, Yun Qingyi sighed softly.
"Miss, you were so amazing just now! That posture, the concubine is born to be the concubine, and those bullying concubines can't compare with you at all! Poria turned her face and said to Yun Qingyi with a smile.
"Let's go, let's go back to our room. Also, don't tell outsiders about what Aunt Seven has been here today. Yun Qingyi instructed Poria as she walked inside.
"Miss, I see." Poria happily ran into the room, looking at the wooden boxes and the silk satin mouth that were almost out of harmony. Although Yun Qingyi is the concubine of the Yun family, her treatment since she was a child is no different from that of a little maid and a subordinate, and her food and clothing are the lowest and the worst.
During the New Year's holidays, there are no new clothes to wear, let alone any moon silver. Poria has followed Yun Qingyi since she was a child, and she has never seen any valuable jewelry and good-looking clothes. Although she has a large birthmark on her face, which is very ugly, what daughter doesn't love red makeup.
"Miss, it's all right! You can dress up a bit! These jewels can be used as a dowry! I didn't expect this seventh aunt to be real and generous, and there are really good things! Poria sighed as she touched the jewelry.
"If you like that, take it. You pick up what you like, and we'll exchange the rest for silver tomorrow. Yun Qingyi took a sip of tea and said lightly.
