This explanation made the sisters cry and laugh a little.

In Li Qiaohui's opinion, since her stepmother treats her harshly, it is a little unruly at most to leave the book. The sisters of the Yu family felt that the people who could do this were definitely not normal people, but they couldn't say anything, so they could only change the topic and talk about other things.

As soon as the topic opened, there was finally a conversation about whether there was a match or not.

Yu Can learned from the small talk that Li Qiaohui is eighteen this year and is the granddaughter of the old lady's distant cousin, so she is not related by blood.

According to her, Li's father died the year before last, and her stepmother's family has always occupied the land, which is particularly harsh on her, and life is very difficult.

After receiving the letter from Jingzhong, she was so excited that she didn't know why, and hurriedly packed her things and ran out.

"My stepmother's two daughters are not much different in age from me, and it is common for them to rob me of things. Originally, my mother left me a lot of gold and silver jewelry, silk and silk, all of which were taken by them. ”

Li Qiaohui also said how much her mother's dowry was, and what the scenery was on the day of marriage, which was called a look and detail, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.

Yu Can sympathized with her at first, but after listening to it for a long time, she felt a little tasteless, this is a naked show-off. She didn't bother to listen anymore, so she propped her chin and walked up, thinking that she would let the kitchen make a sweet and sour short rib to eat at noon.

Yu Mingyi remembered the flower viewing banquet in the eldest princess's mansion, and like Yu Can, he propped up his chin and silently prayed that the banquet could go on as usual.

Yu Min and Yu Zhen occasionally talked to each other, but since there was nothing to say, they simply shifted the topic to Xiaobai Fun Stories.

When it came to Xiaobai, Yu Mingyi finally became interested, and talked about going to the Lantern Festival to see a lamp that looked very similar to Xiaobai, but Yu Can and Lord Rongjia failed to guess the riddle, and no one got their hands.

Li Qiaohui listened to Yu Mingyi's story, and couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, always feeling that Yu Mingyi was laughing at herself for not seeing the world, and using the prosperity and bustle in the capital and the nobles of the family to pressure her.

Seeing that Yu Mingyi was still talking about how fun the lantern festival was, Li Qiaohui finally couldn't help but stab.

"Oh, it's an honor for my cousins to be able to talk to the county lord and the girls of the Guogong Mansion, so they can invite you to play with you on weekdays?"

Who doesn't know that there is a big gap between the favored county lord and the dilapidated uncle's mansion, as soon as he heard the irony in Li Qiaohui's words, Yu Mingyan, who was originally silent, suddenly became angry.

"Ignorant village girl, if you can't speak, don't speak!"

The flower hall was suddenly silent, Yu Can looked dazed, why did he just walk for a while, and everyone talked about the sky again?

-

The atmosphere in the main house was more embarrassing than the flower hall, and Li's face was gloomy, and he had long lost the good mood just now.

"Yao, as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Yu Mansion, you don't even want to receive a junior who has defected?"

Yao was not angry or annoyed, still smiling. "Didn't you settle her in the main courtyard? With you taking care of it personally, why do you need me to worry about it. ”

Every time Li saw her expression, he couldn't wait to come forward and tear her face.

From the return of Changfang to Beijing to the present, not a single good thing has happened in the house.

Especially thinking of Yu Xinyi, Li's heart was full of hatred and regret. But for the sake of the future of her children and grandchildren, how dare she hold on to this matter, and she doesn't even dare to mention it.

And that fool who suddenly got better, actually got an errand in the Zhenguo Mansion, if it weren't for Yu Shuo's relationship, it would be strange!

Li hated it so much, Yu Shuo didn't help Qifeng and Qihuan, but he still had to help Li Ping'an, so that her daughter Jiuquan had no one to accompany her, and often cried to her in her dreams......

"Mother, I have an idea." Zhou was afraid that the burden would fall on the second room, so he hurriedly opened his mouth.

"I see that Songhe Courtyard and Xingyun Courtyard have been opened, the place is quite big, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law only have one daughter, so it is better to let my cousin and niece be a companion with Cancan."

Zhou pulled Li Yuan's thoughts back, and he was a little hesitant for a while, it was not bad to go to the long room, it was more convenient than staying with her.

"That's fine, then ......"

"The old lady still thinks about it." Yao interrupted her, too lazy to pretend to be respectful, and his expression and tone were a little cold and hard.

"My cousin and niece have no blood relationship with our master, she can't stay here when she comes to visit relatives, she doesn't live with the second brother and third brother, what does it look like to live in the long house? The old lady can't ignore her reputation. ”

Yao's words were straightforward and unceremonious, and Li's face darkened suddenly, but he couldn't find a proper reason to refute it.

Li glared fiercely at the proposed Zhou, and once again blamed the second daughter-in-law who was too talkative and thought she was smart.

She originally wanted Li Qiaohui to live by her side, just give some money out of the long house, and plan slowly in the future. Now it's okay, I've messed up the Yao family, and I don't even have a chance to mention the silver.

The Li family did not have the bargaining chips to coerce the long house, but only to suppress it with filial piety. But this card can't be played from time to time, and if the Yao family is forced to be anxious, it will inevitably shake out her participation in the murder of Li Ping'an.

Zhou saw his mother-in-law's dissatisfied eyes, and felt aggrieved again. She is not forced, filling the dowry into the bottomless pit every day, is it possible to raise another cousin girl who can't beat the eight poles?

Wu has been pretending to be a quail, and he refuses to insert half a sentence. Since returning to Beijing from the long house, she has seen that this family is not easy to provoke, rather than calculating them, it is better to be a quiet person and save yourself from being calculated.

There was silence in the room again, and Yao saw that Li no longer made a request, so he got up and said goodbye in a hurry. "If the old lady has no other instructions, I will go back first."

Li was already so angry that his liver hurt, and he didn't even bother to stop it, so he snorted coldly and turned his head to ignore it.

Zhou and Wu did not dare to follow suit, and still sat in the house waiting for the old lady to give an order, until she let go, and the two of them, who were sitting on pins and needles, got up and saluted and ran out of the house as if they were fleeing.

Zhou was angry and told the maid to call Yu Mingyan and Yu Zhen, and he turned around and left in a hurry.

The Wu family quickly caught up with the Yao family and asked with a smile: "Sister-in-law, what news is there from the eldest princess's mansion?" ”

Yao knew that she was asking about the flower banquet, shook his head and said, "I didn't send someone to say that I wouldn't do it, but this news has been strange recently, and I don't know if I can do it or not." ”

"Ouch, no one said it was going to happen! If no one is here tomorrow, you can go the day after tomorrow as usual! "Wu didn't want her daughter to miss this great opportunity.

Yao's plan was like this, and the posts were all accepted, indicating that she was going, and the eldest princess didn't send someone to notify her of the cancellation, so she couldn't go.

"Okay, you can prepare Mingyi and Min'er."

Hearing this, Wu was relieved and said a basket of good things, until Yao showed a crying and laughing expression.

Seeing that he was far away, Wu glanced back, and said in a low voice: "Does sister-in-law know why this cousin and niece came to the house?" ”

Yao was also thinking about this in her heart, but she couldn't talk to Wu more about it. "Didn't the old lady say that she missed her mother's family and found a girl she liked?"

Wu pursed his lips, pouting, pouting rather believe that there were ghosts in the world than believing the old lady's mouth.

She knew that Yao didn't believe it either, but she couldn't tell her. "Maybe I'm thinking too much." Wu pursed his lips and smiled, no longer entangled, said goodbye to Yao, and walked back with the maid and servant.
