Chapter 114 Attempt
Returning to the east room of the main house, as soon as he stepped in, all the eyes of everyone in the room looked at Yu Shiyi, and then bypassed Yu Shiyi, his eyes widened, and he stared at Fu Duoduo's red clothes incredibly.
Sensing the angry or confused or drama-like eyes from the surroundings, Fu Duoduo subconsciously shrunk his neck, raised his eyelids and looked angrily at Yu Shiyi, the initiator walking in front of him.
Yu Shiyi looked like he had eyes on the back of his head, turned his head slightly, smiled at Fu Duoduo comfortingly, and closed his mouth one by one, and said silently with his lips: "Don't worry, everything has me, you just have to watch." ”
Fu Duoduo turned his head, not daring to trust him 100%, after all, there is an old saying there, that is, it is better to believe that there are ghosts in the world than to trust the mouth of a man.
walked in front of the eldest lady together, Fu Duoduo followed Yu Shiyi to salute the eldest wife, and then gave salutes to the second, third, and fourth wives present, and finally a few cousins dressed up in fancy clothes.
After saying hello to all of them one by one, Yu Shiyi sat down on the Taishi chair brought by the little maid, while Fu Duoduo obediently stood behind him and waited.
The eldest lady's eyes were withdrawn from Fu Duoduo's red clothes, and she asked Yu Shiyi with a smile on her face: "What's wrong with you today?" Doesn't it give you a good rest? After speaking, he questioned Fu Duoduo with a little reproach, and said, "How did you serve the young master?" Have you forgotten my commands? ”
Fu Duoduo hurriedly knelt down, just begging for mercy, and did not say a word of justification.
Yu Shiyi was on the side and relieved Fu Duoduo and said: "Mother, it's my son who misses you, aren't you still happy for me to come and see you?" ”
The eldest lady smiled: "It's good if you have this heart, whether you come or not, I don't care if my mother comes." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Yu Shiyi, and said to the second wife and the others: "Shiyi, this child, is so filial, obviously his health is not good, but he still thinks about asking me to say goodbye." The tone was very smug.
Hearing this, the second wife couldn't help but pursed the corners of her mouth, but she still smiled like a flower on her face, and responded: "It's still the blessing of the sister-in-law, no matter what, she always has a son to rely on, unlike us concubines, who have been married into the Yu Mansion for all these years, and have not left incense for the Yu family." I heard that the fourth aunt of the eldest brother Xinna entered the door pregnant, and in a few months, the melon will be ripe, and the sister-in-law will have another son under her knees. Your blessings are not ordinarily good! The words were full of dark currents.
The eldest lady was a little annoyed in her heart, but finally endured it and replied: "I don't know if I have a boy or a girl, who knows if it's a young master or a girl?" Besides, my blessing is not because the concubine gave birth to a son, do you think this is the truth? He raised his eyebrows and asked the third and fourth wives.
The third lady has a round face and an ordinary appearance, and she is honest at first glance and does not like to be hooked.
So, seeing that the eldest wife and the second wife were fighting in front of the juniors, she didn't want to participate, so she had to pretend to be stupid and vaguely transfer other topics.
The fourth wife looked pleasant and disgusting, her face was white, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows showed calculation, so she directly skipped the question asked by the eldest lady, but glanced at Yu Shiyi and asked, "The young master hasn't made a family appointment yet!" Do you have a favorite girl? ”
Hearing this, Fu Duoduo looked at Yu Shiyi to see how he answered.
Yu Shiyi covered his mouth and coughed very weakly, and said weakly: "Fourth aunt, you are laughing, my body has two diseases in three days, how can I know the lady Xiu, and then have a favorite?" It's not like I'm not going to do this kind of sin, I'm not going to do it, I'll talk about it when I'm sick. After speaking, he coughed heavily again, and squeezed Fu Duoduo's hand vigorously, as if he was in pain.
Seeing this, Fu Duoduo secretly scolded "hypocrisy" in his heart.
Because Yu Shiyi's coughs were all pretended, the evidence was that he still smiled at himself.
With a cold snort that was almost inaudible, Fu Duoduo turned his head to the other side, not wanting to look at Yu Shiyi, who was inconsistent, but by chance, he happened to see the direction of the young ladies sitting at the end of several wives. One of them, sitting at the very end, dressed in a dark purple plum and snow pattern gown, was dressed delicately and lovely, and the daughter of an unknown lady was staring at her with extremely resentful eyes.
Fu Duoduo had a thrill in his heart, and immediately thought of a possibility.
Could it be that this young lady is also like Miss Zhu San and Miss Lin San, who are all coming for Yu Shiyi?
But, no!
She is Yu Shiyi's cousin, how can this relationship intermarry?
couldn't help but frown tightly.
Yu Shiyi sensed Fu Duoduo's thoughts, and asked quietly in a voice that the two of them could hear, "What's wrong?" ”
Fu Duoduo thought for a while, and simply asked Yu Shiyi: "That cousin, like you?" As he spoke, his eyes looked at the young woman in the dark purple plum and snow-patterned gown.
Yu Shiyi looked over and chuckled, "What? Are you jealous? The tone rose slightly, and he was very happy.
Hearing this, Fu Duoduo made a gesture to withdraw his right hand that was clenched by Yu Shiyi.
Yu Shiyi hurriedly held it tightly and said seriously: "She is not my cousin, she should be from the fourth aunt's family." After speaking, I was afraid that Fu Duoduo would not know the strange faces in the room, Yu Shiyi introduced them in detail one by one, and said: "The second aunt has only one daughter, and the one who sits at the bottom of the fourth aunt is wearing pink and purple, and everyone in the house calls her the eldest lady." The more stable one below the eldest sister is the second sister, and the more lively next to it is the third sister, they are all from the third aunt, the fourth aunt has no children, and the girl sitting at the end should be her mother's girl. Then he asked, "Do you have any other questions?" You ask, I'll tell you. His eyes were very doting, as if as long as Fu Duoduo could say it, he would do it.
Fu Duoduo got used to Yu Shiyi's coldness, and also adapted to his cunning, but he couldn't adapt to his enthusiasm, besides, she just didn't know those young ladies very well, and she still knew everyone else. Therefore, the right hand struggled carefully, shook his head gently, and said stiffly: "No." ”
Yu Shiyi was slightly disappointed, because he liked to see Fu Duoduo's expression of listening to him carefully, which was very charming and made him like it.
And seeing Yu Shiyi like a child who can't eat sugar, Fu Duoduo feels like a cold, and really doesn't fit into his current appearance, he would rather see a big ice cube every day than his innocence against the sky.
Sighing slightly, Fu Duoduo felt that Yu Shiyi knew how to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger more than her.
Just thinking about it, Fu Duoduo once again felt an extremely resentful look in the northwest corner.
There is no need to guess too much, Fu Duoduo 100% thinks that it is the young lady of the fourth wife's mother's family.
Alas, I have to say that Yu Shiyi is really a fragrant dumpling, and the beautiful lady sent it to the door one after another.
Thinking about it, in the flint electric light, Fu Duoduo thought of a question.
That is what happened when she was tripped up before, and it must have been caused by the young lady of the fourth wife's mother's family who wanted to marry Yu Shiyi.
The reason is that she clearly remembers that when she passed by the fourth lady's maiden house and poured tea for the third lady, her foot was tripped by something, and then her feet were unstable, her body swayed, and she wanted to try to walk a few steps forward to stand firm, but she didn't expect another stumbling thing to stick out, so that she pounced forward again.
No, it's not!
Thinking of this, Fu Duoduo thought of another question.
Because according to her speculation, there should be two people who secretly attacked her, otherwise, with the position she stood in before, no matter how unstable her body was, she would not be able to pounce on the eldest lady, that is, the person who tripped her for the second time was not the fourth lady's maiden lady, but the fourth lady herself!
In an instant, Fu Duoduo's body suddenly became cold.
Just as Fu Duoduo was in deep thought, the fourth wife saw that Yu Shiyi was no longer coughing, and began to hold on to the previous topic again, and persuaded him: "This is not good!" Your illness is slowly raised, is it true that if you are not cured for a day, you will never marry? After speaking, he said to the eldest lady: "Sister-in-law, Shiyi is like this, don't you care?" This is a matter of incense in our remaining mansions, and we can't let the world mess around. ”
The eldest lady didn't like the fourth wife's criticism of her, and said coldly: "Don't worry, Shiyi is my own son, and I won't treat him badly." ”
Seeing that the eldest lady was displeased, the fourth lady was also surprised by the recklessness of her tone. In normal times, she would not repair the relationship in a low voice, but now it is different from the past, her father is not a weapon, she only knows how to drill into the willows of Fireworks Lane every day, and she doesn't know how to live after the separation of the mansion in the near future, so she can only plan well behind her back, so that the girl of her mother's family can marry Yu Shiyi, and she will be good in the future and live a stable life.
Therefore, he was unwilling to pile up a flattering smile, and said cautiously: "Sister-in-law, look at what you said, I know that you love Shiyi, and you have chosen to find the best daughter-in-law for him." It's just that I'm also an aunt, and seeing that Shiyi's family affairs haven't been settled yet, I can't help but be anxious, so I rushed to speak, and please don't be surprised. After speaking, he winked at the second and third wives and asked them to help talk about it.
The second wife felt a little pity for the eldest lady because the eldest lady had a new pregnant fourth aunt, but she still did not change her previous style, and always used her own son to practice others, so no matter how sympathetic the second wife was to her, it was all worn out, and she hated to have to deal with it well, so how could she help the fourth wife, who usually had a mediocre relationship, to please the eldest wife?
And the third wife, like her husband the third master, is not very showy, so it is impossible.
The fourth wife bit her lip, and secretly remembered the behavior of the second and third ladies today, thinking that after she married her mother's daughter to Yu Shiyi, see how they acted with her eyes, Yu Fu was the richest man in the entire Lin'an City!
Since they didn't help, the fourth wife didn't force it, and she was kind enough to please the eldest wife.
The eldest lady knew what the fourth lady had in mind, and she didn't break it, watching her jump up and down like a clown.
But before the fourth lady coaxed the eldest lady to laugh, a little maid came to thank her mother for coming back, and also brought a Taoist priest to ask to see.
