Chapter 218: The Gorgeous Curtain of Life
Women are said to be foxy, and they are always jealous of detractors.
If the man indulges her in humiliation, the detractor will look down on her even more - you see the one who sells himself for glory, thinks he is the best pet, but in fact he is remembered.
But as soon as the man fought back on her behalf, the detractors immediately walked away with a sneer, and there were a few more layers of envy for the woman in their heartsβlo and behold, she really held the man firmly in her hands.
Shu Yu forced the two adults to divorce their wives the day before, and on the second day, he scolded a few rough servants and chamberlains. Qiao Guifei also specially summoned Afu, and sat down with her for tea in her busy schedule.
In this way, the whispering sound like a fly no longer revolves around Afu.
Then, all of them flocked to Xiang Yan.
Li Wei found an excuse to go back to Beijing the next day, saying that he had to make preparations for returning to Luan.
Ironically, unlike the adults next to him who dragged his family back, he brought a small servant, and he ran away in the starry night in a hurry, leaving Xiang Yan alone in that tent, so embarrassed.
Afu knew that she should comfort her a little, but she couldn't keep her spirits up, so she was too lazy to stay in the tent.
Shu Yu said: "What's the use of you comforting her?" She wasn't going to be much happy about it. If you take care of yourself, you just take care of my girl. β
Afu was depressed: "Who said it was a girl?" β
Shu Yu insisted: "It's just a girl." If you give birth to a son, I will not obey you. β
Zhou Hezheng brought in the charcoal basin, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but say, "How is the second master going to break the law?" If you want to transfer troops, your subordinates should prepare first. β
Afu laughed.
Shu Yu glared at him: "You flamboyant, Wanwan can't marry you." β
The two smiling people who said a sentence were blushing, Wanwan avoided the side, Zhou He was busy and was about to put down the charcoal basin and go out, Shuyu also said to him: "I saw you holding someone's hand when I went up the mountain that day!" You guy! β
Zhou and hugged his head and scurried.
Ah Fu was so happy on the couch that she called Wanwan and said: "I forgot everything in the past, and Shuyu only told me something about it in the past two days, so I didn't give you Zhang Luo earlier, don't blame me." β
Wanwan blushed and was silent.
Shu Yu smiled on the side: "It's not too late, it's not too late, it's just time to do it when you return to Chang'an." β
Ah Fu and Shu Yu were actually afraid that the emperor would not be able to hold on, and it would be another three-year national funeral all of a sudden, so it would be delayed for a long time.
Wanwan replied shyly: "Let the second master and Mrs. decide." β
---
Xiang Changzai fell, and Xiang Madame raised his eyebrows.
She forced Xiang to see the old man, and asked him to send Aunt Li to the village outside the city.
Master Xiang is not affectionate, seeing this posture, he has long been thinking about how to get rid of Aunt Li and Xiang Yu.
Just as he proposed it to his wife, he immediately pushed the boat down the river, and Lili Suoso sent Aunt Li away.
Mrs. Xiang hated Nuan Yue's previous betrayal, so she simply took her deed and sent her to the village with Aunt Li.
only said to the outside world that he sent the two aunts to recuperate, but in fact, the life was worse than that of ordinary maidservants.
Mrs. Xiang's movements were very fast, and neither Aunt Li nor Nuan Yue could see Hui Luan.
Luan drove first, and then the officials and family members who accompanied him returned to the city one after another, and Chang'an City was immediately full.
But because the emperor has always been in a coma, Chang'an has been under martial law, and the winter is almost hungry, and the city is lifeless and unpopular.
But Shuyu is busy.
Taking advantage of the Empress Dowager's regency, Shu Yu teamed up with Huan Xiu, Xie An and others to impeach Ma Yue for corruption and corruption, and successfully persuaded the Empress Dowager to order a strict investigation.
It is much easier to convince a queen mother who has never been in power than to convince a suspicious emperor.
Shu Yu didn't pull Mu Zhiningzhi and the others into the water, and he didn't even look for Xie Yi, but found a few children of the family who were not so strong in energy.
After all, I don't know what dangerous moves the opponent will take, so I have to keep the back hand.
He went out early and returned late, full of energy, and Afu was not idle, dragging his pregnant body to prepare for Wanwan and Zhou He.
It was the first time she had prepared this, and she was very serious about everything.
What's more, Zhou He and Wanwan are so loyal to her, and she also wants to repay her with all her heart.
In the past few days, Zhou He always wants to come to Wanwan, but Wanwan is blushing and avoiding it.
Afu is also blindly mixed in the busy, and the net gives Zhou He leaks, such as "Wanwan in the kitchen", "Wanwan in the Keyuan Mahogany Hall", "Wanwan wants to go out".....
Wanwan doesn't like it in her heart, but she is just a bride, and she always wants to be reserved.
On this day, Afu found someone in the front yard, and wanted to buy a few new maids to marry Wanwan, and suddenly saw a noble lady passing by in front of the hall.
Her heart moved, and she asked, "Was it my sister-in-law who passed just now?" β
Yuan Niang nodded: "Yes, I heard that she has been taking medicine, and she has been in better spirits during this time." Looking at this posture, maybe go back to your parents' house to take a look, right? β
Sakura said strangely: "Why did the eldest lady suddenly remember to go back to her parents' house?" They didn't come back for years. β
The mother-in-law who was waiting next to her said with a smile: "The girl's news is old, there are few people in the house in the past six months, and the eldest lady often goes back to her parents' house to live." This time, too, I heard that a few days is Prime Minister Wang's birthday, so the eldest lady went back to take a look. β
Afu nodded, she didn't bother to care about this, so she continued to look at the album handed over by Renyazi.
To give Wanwan's dowry, you must be honest and have a job in your eyes, lest Wanwan always do it silently.
Because the emperor's jade body is not safe, this faint ceremony can't be done in a big way, Afu feels a little wronged, and wants to make up for it in marriage.
If you can become the wife of the main family, the second half of your life will be easy.
The day before the ceremony, Shu Yu stayed at Huan's house for the night because he missed the curfew, while Yuan Niang and Sakura waited for Ah Fu to wash up and rest.
After sleeping for half a night, Afu suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to give her Wanwan's deed as a dowry.
Wanwan definitely wouldn't take the initiative to mention it, but she thought that she would give Wanwan's slave status, and the child would not have to be a family child in the future.
Afu didn't want to call Yuan Niang in the middle of the night, so she simply put on her clothes and rummaged through the grid of the deed in the small room.
When she saw the word "Wanwan" on it, she pulled it out with satisfaction, picked up the candlestick, and went to the bedroom while reading.
"Pei Mansion", Afu was stunned for a moment. Wanwan is her dowry, how could she be included in the Pei Mansion's roster?
"Concubine Room".
As soon as the hand was crooked, the candle tears spilled on the back of one hand and splashed a little more on the body deed.
Afu didn't feel a pain in her hand, she only felt surprised, Wanwan was Shuyu's concubine? She only knew that the two in the backyard were moved by him to Rongxia Courtyard, but she didn't know that Wanwan was also accepted by him....
Afu didn't recognize the two who were replaced by "Ming Yuan" and "Qing Yan", so she didn't have much resentment towards them; But she has been with Wanwan for so many days, and suddenly she knows this....
She could almost imagine Shu Yu's anxious appearance at that time, which made her feel disgusting out of thin air.
And he was able to give his concubine to the little maid as his wife......
Afu retched, half because she was pregnant, and half because she was uncomfortable.
She blew out the candles, sat on the bed, and silently remembered the past.
In fact, she felt that she had remembered a lot of things these days, and often when Shu Yu mentioned it, she probably knew, maybe it was because the blood clot in her brain had disappeared as the doctor said before.
But she just didn't bother to think about it, and felt that there was nothing worth remembering.
Afu now suspects that she just doesn't dare. I just didn't dare to open the gorgeous curtain of my current life, and I didn't dare to look at the mess behind it.
She thought quietly, she remembered the green heirloom jade in her ears when she got married, the blue moonlight on the night she met Jin Heng's brother, and the fact that she sat under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard waiting for her husband to come back, and he picked up her long scattered hair, smiled and sniffed, and then picked her up into the room.....
There were many things she couldn't remember, but she still remembered the loneliness and loneliness in her heart at that time. Of course, she also remembered happiness, but it was far less memorable than those sad moments.
Afu reflects on herself, is she really happy in the past six months? Or is it just like when I got married for the first time, I feel that if I get married, I will get married, and I will be happy if I am not happy.....
Even at such a moment, she feels that the last six months have been happy.
But clutching the thin body deed in his hand, Afu's heart sank and breathless.
She had no sleep all night, her face was haggard like a ghost, and she startled Yuan Niang, who got up early to comb her hair: "Girl, didn't sleep well last night?" β
Afu was weak: "The ghost is pressing the bed." β
Yuan Niang was silent, so she kept silent.
Shu Yu went directly from Huan's house this morning, because Yi Afu still had enough time to think nonsense.
She couldn't help but ask Yuan Niang: "Yuan Niang, how did Shuyu treat me before?" β
Yuan Niang smiled: "It's good." β
She watched Wanwan grow up, and now she sees that she has a good home, where is the reason to be unhappy.
Afu tugged at the hem of her clothes: "Good Yuan Niang, you tell me carefully." β
Yuan Niang sighed: "Little ancestor, why do you always want to know about the past?" This second time you are married again, do you want to be separated for the second time? The Temple of Mercy and Grace is not your hotel, so you can go and leave. β
Afu was silent.
In this way, Shuyu must have been extremely bad to her in the past.
Shu Yu didn't hide it from her, but he lightly understated the undetailed statement, and of course Afu only thought he was joking.
In the evening, Shu Yu should have come back to attend, but he stumbled on official business, and only sent someone to reward the two of them another day, and today it will only be presided over by his wife.
Afu went to the faint ceremony in a trance, and in a trance she accepted Zhou He and Wanwan's heads, and in a trance she sent Wanwan to the sedan chair.
Before leaving, Wanwan took her hand and burst into tears, choked up and couldn't speak.
If it was in the past, Afu would definitely only feel when she got married, but after last night, her heart was also tightly pinched.
"In the future," she choked up, "you have a home of your own, don't keep coming this way." β
Wanwan lowered her eyes, just crying.
Afu pushed her: "Come in quickly, it's not good if you miss the auspicious time." β
Wanwan was pushed into the sedan chair by her, and then said in a dumb voice: "Girl, the slave must come often." You take care of your ....."
The sedan chair driver got up, and Afu stepped to the side and watched the graceful sedan chair swaying away.
Yuan Niang instinctively felt that something was wrong, so she held Afu's elbow and sent her into the house.
Because Afu was pregnant, everyone who came to see off the bride stayed for a short time, for fear of tiring her, and after chatting for a while, they all dispersed, only the eldest lady, sitting there, had no intention of moving at all.
Yuan Niang looked at Afu in a trance, Wang Xi's eyes were hooked, and she was really scared in her heart; In addition, Zhou He got married tonight, and the second master did not come back, so he was really afraid that something would happen.
She sent Sakura Sakura to find Chen Sheng, her chubby body blocked between the two ladies, like a female beast protecting her cubs.
Only Yuan Niang, Shi Shu, Ah Fu and Wang Xi were left in the house.
Wang Xi tried hard to show a smile, courted Afu unfamiliarly, and then ordered: "Shishu, Yuan Niang, you go down." I would like to say a few words to my wife. β
As soon as these words came out, Yuan Niang didn't dare to leave.
Wang Xi smiled: "Yuan Niang will stay." Waiter, you go out. β
The waiter was very well-behaved, and without asking the reason, Lilisoso went out.
She was guarding the door, and when she met Sakura and Chen Sheng, who had come in a hurry with a group of family members, she couldn't help but chuckle: "Sakura girl is really careful. Girl, don't worry, our lady is well off now, and she won't mess around for a long time. And Yuan Niang is still waiting inside, so the girl doesn't have to go in. Our lady wants to talk to the second lady alone. β
Sakura smiled embarrassedly and said, "Sister, it's rude that we, it's just that our lady has a body, so we really have to be careful, you must bear with it, don't tell the eldest lady." β
The waiter pursed his lips and smiled: "Of course. How can we be slaves to fan the flames everywhere. β
Sakura said strangely: "My sister is the closest person to the eldest lady, why did she ask you to come out?" β
The waiter smiled: "I don't know, I never think about this, I will do what the eldest lady tells me to do." β
Sakura felt that the waiter was really a competent servant, so she talked to her.
A group of people stood at the door.
In the house, Wang Xi asked Ah Fu a few common words, but Ah Fu and Yuan Niang could see that Wang Xi was uneasy.
Her brow furrowed, her eyes wandered, and she often lost her mind.
Ah Fu just thought that she was not well yet, but just chatted with her patiently.
β..... Children grow up fast, Chengyuan will be one year old in a few days, the second master wants him to stand and show the guests at that time, so I've been ..... recently"
Afu slowly and leisurely responded to Wang Xi's question.
Wang Xi obviously didn't listen, she wrinkled her eyebrows, and twisted the handkerchief with both hands.
Afu was halfway through speaking, her eyes suddenly widened, and she lowered her voice and said, "Qiao Guifei's prince was killed by my father!" β
Ave could barely believe her ears.
At this time, the door opened, and Invite Mo walked in with a tray, closed the door again, and said with a smile: "Madam, what you asked me to take, I brought ......"
