(Thanks to reader Pink.) Plus more. οΌ
The atmosphere in Si'an Courtyard was a little weird, because Xun Shufang, the eldest girl who had always been favored, had been standing at the door of the Fang family for more than half an hour, and she hadn't been let in yet, and she didn't say anything about exempting her from asking for peace.
Xun Shufang lowered her head, feeling a little uneasy in her heart. It was she who overheard that the Anguo Mansion wanted Qi Yu to marry Xun Qingran, but the Fang family was unwilling to do so, but she couldn't think of a way to obstruct it for a while.
She tried her best and played so many tricks to get the best marriage among the sisters. Even if it is not as good as Xun Shulan, it must be stronger than Xun Shuzhi and Xun Qingran. Anguo Mansion is a marriage that she can't dream of, how can Xun Qing be dyed cheap.
She was almost crazy with jealousy, and as soon as her mind was hot, she went in to offer advice to the Fang clan. The Fang clan didn't care how she knew the news, after listening to her words, it was like a treasure, and he really acted according to the plan, and invited Master Xun to observe.
She originally thought that Xun Qing's dyeing this time was completely finished. It's a pity that things didn't develop as expected, Xun Qingran resolutely refused to admit it, and defended the matter clearly. It also pointed out Fang's sinister intentions.
She originally wanted to see a good show, and she could curry favor with Master Xun and the Fang family afterwards, so she deliberately stayed there. But seeing that things had changed, she really regretted being there. Master Xun asked Xun Qing's maidservants, and their rhetoric was exactly the same as Xun Qing's. She realized that the Fang clan had been completely planted this time.
So when Master Xun asked her about the wooden bracelet, she followed Xun Qing's words and only said that the wooden bracelet belonged to Xun Shulan, and later gave it to the girl. was so vague that she didn't dare to mention that she gave the bracelet to Xun Qing to dye.
In order to clear up, she also hinted in front of Master Xun that Peony usually doesn't listen to orders, and this time the matter is even more self-made and has nothing to do with her. She also put herself and Xun Qingran together, saying that Peony must have hated her, so she talked nonsense in front of the Fang family, in order to take revenge on their sisters, and Master Xun believed it.
Then Xun Qingran took the scissors to find a short view, and Master Xun went in to stop it. She didn't want to face the Fang clan and wanted to take the opportunity to slip away. But Xun Qing's dyeing of those girls was really hateful, and I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, so she surrounded her and squeezed into Fang's house together.
When Fang saw her, he naturally asked her to testify. How could she annoy Master Xun for the Fang clan, but she didn't want to offend the Fang clan directly, so she swallowed it. deliberately made a scared appearance to show Master Xun, and sure enough, Master Xun opened his mouth to relieve her.
Fang's face was faceless, and she was very happy in her heart. But Fang's mother was still her mother-in-law, and she thought she had figured out Fang's temper, so she had already thought of a rhetoric. She was confident that she could coax the Fang clan and fool this matter over. After all, in front of the Fang Clan, she didn't refute the Fang Clan's words.
Besides, she also has a bargaining chip in her hand, which is her marriage. The family she was going to marry was not an ordinary person, and with the attitude of the Fang family and Second Lady Qi towards her fiancΓ©, she was sure that the Fang family had a request for her husband's family. She was the person her fiancΓ© had met face to face, and the marriage was a certainty, and she was sure that the Fang clan would not dare to do too much to her.
Xun Shufang came to see the Fang clan with these thoughts. And I heard the little girl say that Xun Qing's eyes were red and swollen when she was dyed, and she also did something on her eyes before she came out.
However, as soon as Xun Qingran arrived, she was invited in, but she waited so long.
Xun Shufang was a little unhappy in her heart, but she could bear it. After all, the Fang clan suffered such a big loss, and he was not happy in his heart, so he just gave her a little bit of power. She believed she could get through. Fang needed someone to tout her. Xun Shuzhi and Xun Qingran are not good at this, in this mansion, she is the only one in this regard.
An hour later, the sun rose high in the morning, and it was obvious that Fang's side had withdrawn breakfast and the tea was delivered twice, so a girl called Xun Shufang in.
"Ma'am, ma'am, I'm sorry ma'am."
As soon as Xun Shufang entered the door, she knelt down in front of Fang Shi with a thud and wiped her eyes with a handkerchief.
"Hurry up, early in the morning, what are you doing here? How come I don't know where you're sorry for me? Fang Shi reclined on the couch and said lazily.
Xun Shufang secretly looked up at the Fang Clan, and when she saw that the Fang Clan was expressionless, she didn't dare to get up.
"Madam, I misbelieved the words of that girl from Peony. Who knew she wouldn't be able to do this. There is also a third sister, who usually looks honest, but she didn't find that she had a sharp mouth. This is all my usual negligence as a sister, if I had known and told my wife, I wouldn't have ......"
"Well, it's hard for you to understand that. You also know that you are negligent, and you can't even discipline the girls around you, so I have to worry about you. β
There was not the slightest anger in Fang's words, and he only nodded to Mama Chang.
Mama Chang went out for a while, and then brought a few of Xun Shufang's girls in. The first is the spring peach and the peony, and the second is the incense and the rose.
"Peony, what you told me. Did you make it up yourself, or did someone teach you to say it? Mama Chang asked Peony.
"Slave, slave......" Peony looked at Xun Shufang with her eyes.
"Tell you the truth, if anyone instigates you, tell me, and I will punish only the sin of him who instigates you. If you make it up yourself, then you will be punished by yourself. Telling right and wrong, slandering the master, regardless of national law or family rules, is to be beaten to death. "Fang's cold and authentic.
When Peony heard that she was going to be killed, her legs weakened and she knelt on the ground.
"Mrs. Hui, those words were taught by the eldest girl......
"You minion, you're messing with me again!"
Peony was only halfway through her words, Xun Shufang got up from the ground early, walked to Peony in a few steps, lifted Peony's collar, opened the bow left and right, and the peony was speechless.
Chun Tao and a few girls stood next to her, hiding back in fright, and they all shrunk their necks and didn't dare to look.
Fang Shi looked at the couch and sneered.
"Madam, Peony usually doesn't listen to her calls. Her daughter also beat and scolded her, and she held a grudge because of it. At this time, she was afraid that her mother would punish her. She wants to bite me again to atone for her guilt, such a minion, I want to kill her. β
Xun Shufang's mouth was full of blood, and she couldn't speak, so she knelt down in front of Fang Shi to defend herself.
Fang Shi looked at Xun Shufang, didn't say anything, turned his head and asked Chun Tao a few.
Chun Tao and the others had already knelt on the ground, and when they heard Fang's question, they all didn't know anything.
"You child, filial and obedient. Anything is good. It's just that when it comes to His Majesty, there are many shortcomings. Peony has been with you since she was a child, and now she is still so angry. Such a person accompanies you to marry, how can people rest assured. Fang said to Xun Shufang.
"My daughter will teach her a good lesson when she goes back."
Fang Shi smiled, "You also said that she usually teaches a lesson, but she is not ungrateful." Such a white-eyed wolf is unripe. β
Fang's words were punned, his eyes were burning on Xun Shufang's face, Xun Shufang smiled and bowed her head.
"I can't help but worry more about you. The peony girl can't be left, so she dragged it out to play thirty boards, found someone to come to her, and sold it far away. β
Outside, a mother-in-law came in and wanted to drag the peony out.
Fang asked her mother-in-law to wait again, and turned around and asked Xun Shufang, "After all, this girl has followed you since she was a child, if you are reluctant, just tell me, and I will spare her." β
Peony looked at Xun Shufang with tears in her eyes, and whimpered and begged for help.
Xun Shufang turned her face away, didn't look at the peony, and only smiled at Fang's family.
"My mother loves me like this, and everything is up to my mother."
Fang nodded with satisfaction, and this was the reason why the peony was dragged down.
"Of all my daughters, you are the only one who is closest to my heart."
Xun Shufang smiled coquettishly, and took advantage of the situation to roll into Fang's arms to be coquettish. Fang's body stiffened, then softened, and the smile on his face became kinder.
"Your girl is one less, and she doesn't look good when she goes out. I'll give you another girl. β
Fang Clan beckoned outward, and a thin girl in a pink and blue dress walked in, lowered her hand, and stood in front of Fang Clan.
"Of these girls around me, only magpies are responsible and clever. In the future, I will follow you and pass a message back and forth, which is extremely reliable. β
When Xun Shufang saw the magpie, her face turned white instantly. However, she immediately calmed down and thanked Fang again.
"These four girls. They all followed you to get married. You don't have to be afraid that you won't be able to discipline them, their deeds of sale are all in my hands. If they are disobedient, come back and tell me, and I will discipline them for you. Fang said again.
Xun Shufang wanted to laugh with her, but her face was stiff. Only then did she know that the Fang clan didn't mention last night's incident, and originally planned to dominate her here. only gave the dowry girl, but left a deed of sale, so who are these girls? Who will you listen to in the future?
But where did Xun Shufang dare to object, so she had to respond hard.
Mama Chang walked up to Chun Tao and the other four girls again, and said, "You four girls can listen to me, and serve the big girl well in the future. If you do, hurry up and ask the eldest girl, and your wife may forgive you when she sees that you have followed the eldest girl. β
Chun Tao and others responded again and again.
Fang Shi saw that the heat was almost there, so he instructed Xun Shufang again, "Your wedding date is approaching, don't go out of the house these days, embroider the wedding dress well." If there's anything, just send the girls to tell me. I'm tired now, so go down, all of you. β
Sending Xun Shufang out, Fang sneered, "I thought she could calculate me, she was too tender." β
"Yes, just now Mrs. gave the magpie to the eldest girl, and the eldest girl's face is quite beautiful. According to the old slave, the eldest girl just dealt with peony, she was more than ruthless, and her scheming was not bad, but she was still too young. In time, I don't know what will become of it. Madam, is it appropriate to let her marry? Mama Chang said a little worriedly.
"As long as you marry her, the favor will be over. In the future, ......, the Yang family's aunt is a child of a big family, and there is never a shortage of beautiful concubines in the family. The big girl is so smart, she naturally understands that without the help of her mother's family, she can't stand in the Yang family at all. Naturally, they will listen to me when the time comes. She has the means, so let's use it on those beautiful maids. β
Fang Shi said, and changed his words again, "I don't know if these girls understand your words." Guess who will be the first to come? β
"The old slave guessed it must be ......," Mama Chang whispered two words in Fang's ear.
Sure enough, it was just a cup of tea, and a little girl came to report, "Chun Tao wants to see his wife." β
Fang and Chang Mama smiled at each other.
