Dian Cui was bitter in her mouth, but the smile on her face did not change: "When I got married, my mother only gave her a dowry, but the concubine who accompanied her was negligent, and Miss Qin was both talented and virtuous, so I was afraid that she would be wronged by being a concubine." ”

Regarding her dowry with ten miles of red makeup, Diancui rarely mentioned it, others didn't know, but she could feel that Yuan Zhiheng didn't like it. Although he was forced to live in the house to make a living, he did not take it for granted to accept the help of returning home. He has his own pride, but outsiders are confused by his frenzied nature, and only think that he is informal, and does not care about these foreign objects.

Dian Cui didn't know whether he mentioned his dowry intentionally or unintentionally this time, and he was always upset about this old matter between Qin Qingqing and him.

Yuan Zhiheng seemed to be very surprised, his face became more and more cold, and he looked at her with a smile and said, "You think so?" What if I don't want to. ”

The dead silence of the room, Qin Qingqing's hand trembled slightly, and a large amount of ink dripped down and smeared on the rough bamboo paper.

"The man doesn't say anything, I am now the female daughter of this Yuan Mansion, and the matter of the inner courtyard, the adults should not ask." Dian Cui looked at his cold eyes, and his heart became more and more bitter, and he hardened his head.

"Men don't say anything? Where did you learn these sour words? Yuan Zhiheng laughed angrily at her. No wonder a few days ago, there were rumors everywhere in the city of Hangzhou that he had a wife and a concubine to enjoy the blessings of all people! It turned out that this rumor was not a rumor made from others, but his own wife made the decision by herself, and she brought a concubine to him without his knowledge!

Seeing that he began to be mean to himself, Diancui's heart became more and more sour. Unexpectedly, he just mentioned letting Qin Qingqing be his concubine, which caused him to be so angry and sarcastic. But looking at the relaxed and comfortable appearance of the two of them when they get along, it is only a matter of time before Qin Qingqing enters the house, is it possible that she feels that she has been wronged by being a noble concubine, and she will marry her as a flat wife?

Dian Cui was originally Yuan Zhiheng's little apprentice, and he thought that he would be a well-behaved and obedient person in front of Yuan Zhiheng in this life. If he proposed that Qin Qingqing be his wife, she would have no choice. In this Hangzhou Fucheng, which is far away from his family, Diancui now doesn't even have a trustworthy friend to discuss with.

Yuan Zhiheng looked at her miserable face, and he couldn't bear it for a while, but after all, he was angry with her in his heart, and felt that she was becoming more and more pampered and willful, and he should always be cold to her and sharpen her temperament.

The couple each regained their own anger, but it was Qin Qingqing, the key person mentioned earlier, who was ignored for a while.

"Thank you, Madame, for your kindness, but Qingqing is unwilling. Qingqing and Brother Yuan have known each other since childhood, and this relationship should not be so shallow. Qin Qingqing's face was slightly pale, and after saying this, his body was still a little shaky. The maid beside her helped her and said hatefully: "My young lady has always been noble, and my wife should not insult my young lady with the status of a concubine." ”

"If you don't want to be a concubine, do you want your lady to give her the position of the main room?" Qiu Yue said coldly.

"You...... That's not what we meant, Miss...... She's just ...... In short, you have less blood and spew! ”

Cangcang has never been able to ask for benefits in front of the autumn moon and winter snow, so he had to stammer an explanation at this time.

"What are you young ladies only? Is it just to be a bitch and set up a torii? "Qiu Yue has been extremely tired of her since the first time she saw Qin Qingqing, that day the adult was in a coma, she actually leaned over the adult's chest, that scene was accidentally seen by Qiu Yue, but she didn't dare to tell Mrs.

"Presumptuous! The master speaks, where is your share of interjecting! Yuan Zhiheng was furious, Qiuyue, the maid, relied on herself to be the big maid next to Diancui, and became more and more autobiography.

"Isn't it just for Qiuyue, Cangcang interjects first, isn't it?"

Returning to the point of cui is cowardly, but she is extremely protective of her shortcomings.

"No matter who interjects first, these maids around you must be admonished well, otherwise they will become more and more ignorant of the rules." Yuan Zhiheng saw such a fried Diancui for the first time, and knew that he couldn't provoke her to quarrel anymore, but the maids around her were indeed a little arrogant, there was winter snow blocking the door of his courtyard in front, and Qiu Yue in the back made disrespectful remarks to Qin Qingqing.

"If the adults look at our master and servant, we will move to the Angelica Pavilion today," Dian Cui's face was also very cold: "Fortunately, my mother gave me the Angelica Pavilion, otherwise there would be no place for us in this huge Hangzhou mansion." ”

These days, Diancui is really fed up, compared to these gentle and affectionate Jiangnan women who grew up in the rough countryside, she is still ashamed of herself, and there is a Qin Qingqing who should be involved with her father-in-law in her life, coupled with Yuan Zhiheng's extraordinary attitude towards her, it has become the last straw that overwhelms Diancui.

Yuan Zhiheng was even more surprised when he saw that she was crazy: "Sure enough, it is the most desirable thing for you to return home, then you will hold the silver of Angelica Pavilion and reflect on it for two days." ”

didn't teach her a good lesson, and she kicked her nose in the face.

Is he saying that he is vulgar? Dian Cui, who turned to leave, smiled bitterly in her heart, she thought that both of them had suffered when they were children, and they were very happy when they looked at the silver.

It turns out that the two of them have been different from beginning to end, and he and Qin Qingqing, the model of the woman, are the people all the way.

"Brother Yuan, don't be angry, Mrs. is from a rich family, it is inevitable to be pampered, and it is inevitable that she will be a little arrogant. It's just that Brother Yuan has been working hard for the government affairs of Hangzhou Mansion these days, and it has been really hard......" Qin Qingqing sighed and stepped forward and said softly.

But he didn't want Yuan Zhiheng to look at her with a strange face, and his face was slightly cold for a while:

"You're wrong, my wife has never been pampered, and she is not arrogant." I couldn't help but think of her tattered and thin appearance when I first saw her in Qianjia Village.

Ay...... I knew that I should let her go more, these days, everyone in the family of the mansion city has really made him have a headache, and the people of the Yuan family who were kicked out also kept making some small moves behind his back, so that Yuan Zhiheng would inevitably take care of himself.

Seeing that Yuan Zhiheng was a little unhappy, Qin Qingqing immediately realized that he didn't know enough about Gui's life experience, and he should have missed something.

"Brother Yuan, my father wrote to say that he had made contact with the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce, and now half of the people have expressed their loyalty to Brother Yuan, and the rest of my father is also trying to lobby...... Qin Qingqing hurriedly said.

"I'm not asking them to be allegiant, I have my own arrangements for how I treat them. It's good that your Qin family is willing to support/hold the government, and some other affairs and the government have their own plans, so you don't need to get involved. ”

Yuan Zhiheng frowned, there was indeed a bit of warning in his words.

"Brother Yuan, don't be careful, the Hangzhou Fucheng Chamber of Commerce is deep, although my family's business is not big, but I usually have some contact with them, I just want to share your worries for you......" Qin Qingqing was not afraid of Yuan Zhiheng's displeasure, but tried hard to persuade her.

When Yuan Zhiheng saw her like this, he only felt a little weird, she was indeed his life-saving benefactor, and she was a familiar playmate who grew up together. Now it doesn't hurt that she wants to live in this house, and her father intends to surrender, so she has to communicate with each other about some things...... It can be seen that her appearance like Cao Xin is indeed a little overstepping.

But after all, she is only his friend, and he can't teach her the same lesson as Dian Cui. What's more, Yuan Zhiheng is not so fond of Cao Xianxin, so he didn't say much. Qin Qingqing and Cang Cang exchanged glances, and the two of them returned to their courtyard.

"You quickly find someone and go to the capital to inquire, the last time about the Gui clan, there must have been something missing, and there are some things I don't know." Qin Qingqing returned to his courtyard and hurriedly instructed Cang Cangdao.

Let's say that after Diancui went back to cry, he wiped away his tears and told Qiuyue and Dongxue to clean up the softness.

"Ma'am, what's the matter? Don't be angry, let's go, this house is not repaired? Dongxue asked cautiously.

"What are you anxious about, the surname of this house is Yuan, I see that your family lives well, why do we bother to repair it on the pole." Diancui gambled on the airway.

"Madam, where is this, this is the house of you and your lord!" Xin'er said puzzled.

Diancui was determined to pack up the baggage, and a few little maids couldn't persuade her, so they had to follow her to clean up.

Dongxue saw that Qiuyue's face was a little pale, and she was silent and cleaned up, so she secretly moved to her and asked what happened to Mrs. and the adults in the study, and why they made such a big fuss.

Qiu Yue sighed and whispered the matter.

"What!" Xin'er almost jumped up on the side: "My lord actually reprimanded our wife for that ugly Qin girl, and scolded you!?" ”

"Be quiet!" Qiu Yue said angrily: "Don't let Mrs. hear it and get angry." ”

"I've heard that," Diancui snorted, "Clothes are packed?" Don't forget to bring a glass bowl for eating vegetables and fruits, a long-mouthed white jade cup for drinking milk and orange juice, two Ru kiln celadon beauties, and a set of incense burners and candlesticks with carved treasures and flowers...... Xin'er, you go and bring our dried mint leaves, I see that the cinnamon outside is blooming just right, you go in the autumn moon, before leaving, cut some to make osmanthus moon cakes, and the rest will be made osmanthus sauce. ”

Qiuyue was so angry and sad to see her, and she didn't forget to bring her favorite objects in Su Ri, and even remembered the mooncakes she ate during the Mid-Autumn Festival...... Shaking her head, Mrs. looked like she loved to cry and obediently, but she was actually strong and decisive.

It is a loss for adults to provoke the cold heart of the lady!

Thinking like this, Qiu Yue took the scissors, and very forcefully and quickly, cut the cinnamon tree outside the study with branches and flowers bare.

After getting angry with Diancui, Yuan Zhiheng hated the dim sum on the plum blossom table, and at the beginning he was also concentrating on writing official documents. But after half a day's work, Yuan Zhiheng raised his head, thinking that he was dazzled, he was stunned for a long time, and called Yuan Fu to come in:

"What's going on with this cinnamon tree outside?"

Yuan Fu said with a bitter face: "Miss Qiuyue has cut it, and Mrs. will make moon cakes and osmanthus sauce." ”

Yuan Zhiheng was speechless for a long time, and said in his heart, Qiuyue, this girl, is really holding a grudge!

"It's okay to cut it, you and Miss Qin will hold hands in front of the laurel and paint again, which will make Mrs. sad." Yuan Fu turned around and muttered quietly.

"What are you saying bad things about you!" Yuan Zhiheng kicked him and shouted, "Come back!" ”

"What else does the master command?" Yuan Fu rubbed his kicked fart/strand and cried with a sad face.

"Madame...... Did she know she was wrong? Yuan Zhiheng said proudly.

Yuan Fu pondered for a moment:

"You should know."

"Well, that's pretty much it. What did she say? ”

"Madame didn't say anything, led the maids to take their soft clothes, as well as Madame's favorite glass bowl and dried mint leaves, and returned to Angelica Pavilion to think about ......it," Yuan Fu said seriously.
