Chapter 31: Suspicion (2)
、、、、、、、、、、
Back in the Eyebrow Garden, Chu Jian took the warm tea from Yan Hong's hand, sat on the soft couch in a daze, and thought to himself how credible Yu Xueling's words were? No matter how much Yu Yunsheng hates her, he won't let her be a concubine of an old man who can be her father, right? If Yu Yunsheng was really so ruthless, what would Mrs. Yu do?
Now the power of the family is in the hands of Mrs. Yu, Master Yu is a person who has never taken care of family affairs, he only manages his embroidery room, if Chen Zhenhui complains in front of him, I don't know if he will stand up for her.
Put down the teacup, the first time I saw my eyes, I saw the Yaoqin on the piano table, this Yaoqin was given by a waiweng, the wood is rich and smooth, the strings are bright and moist, there are seven strings, the body is short, but it is a good piano worth a thousand gold.
This piano is a good piano, it is a waste to follow her, I really don't know what the purpose of the wai weng sent this Yaoqin to her, it should not be for her to see as an ornament.
"Second girl" Lingyu came in, her face was a little strange.
"How?" Retracting his gaze, he looked at Lingyu for the first time.
Lingyu moved her mouth, she couldn't speak, she really didn't know how to tell the second girl.
"Letter...... Was it taken by my mother? When she first saw her, she sighed lightly, and she had already guessed one or two in her heart, but now seeing Lingyu's expression, she was even more sure.
Lingyu looked at Chu Jian in astonishment, "Second girl, how do you know?" ”
I smiled helplessly at first sight, when I was in Yancheng, my mother strongly objected to her correspondence with Chun Yuyan, and my mother would intercept Chun Yuyan's letter, which was not surprising at all, "What was the relationship between Chun Yugong and our family before?" What about his mother's treatment of him? ”
Lingyu frowned and thought for a while, "Chun Yugong seems to only have business dealings with the Yu family, but in the past two years, there have been a lot less contacts, and as for the lady's treatment of him, she is also polite and not very enthusiastic." ”
"Nothing to do with our family?" I asked again at first sight.
"......No," Lingyu shook her head, "The lord and lady are very gentle and polite to people, and they often do good deeds, and they have never had a grudge against anyone. ”
"So ......" was even more puzzled at first sight, since Chun Yuyan and the Yu family had no grudges. Why did his mother reject him so much? He doesn't look like an evil man.
"Second girl, Madame is doing this, maybe there is a reason for her." Lingyu tentatively spoke, Madame received the letter from the second girl, naturally she had her reason, they couldn't ask more as slaves, but she was worried that the second girl would be unhappy, so she opened her mouth to comfort.
Chu Jian smiled faintly, "I understand, you go out first, you don't have to inquire about this matter again, if there is a letter from me in the future, you go to the post station to get it, and explain to the little guy in the front yard, you don't have to take it to home." ”
"Understood, second girl, the slave went out first." Knowing that the second girl seemed to be a little depressed, Lingyu didn't dare to say much, so she withdrew after saluting.
The first time I saw half lying on the soft couch, she was a little tired between her eyebrows, her eyes were closed and she was pretending to sleep, her consciousness was gradually unclear, she seemed to be asleep, and she only felt that everything that had happened recently was like a dream, which taught her to be difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood for a while.
In a blur, she felt that someone was carefully rubbing her sideburns, between her ears, and when she first saw it, she suddenly opened her eyes, cold sweat broke out on her back, and she was relieved when she looked at the person sitting on the edge of the soft couch.
"Mother?"
"What's wrong? Scares you? Madame Jade patted Chumi's back and comforted her.
At first sight, I wiped the cold sweat on my forehead, "No, my daughter just had a nightmare." ”
"It's just a dream, it's not real." Lady Jade said softly.
Hatsumi nodded, sat up, snuggled up to Madam Jade's arm, and whispered, "Are they all gone?" "Naturally, they are referring to Tamazuka.
Madame Jade responded softly, "Well, they're all gone, are you tired today?" ”
"I'm not tired, but mother, you seem to be very tired lately, and you have lost so much weight." At first sight, I looked at Mrs. Yu in distress.
"Mother is not tired" Mrs. Yu lowered her head, looked carefully at the first meeting, and was silent for a moment before she asked in a low voice, "You have a lot to ask Mother?" ”
Chujian bit his lower lip, raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Mrs. Yu, opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to ask, and there were clear tooth marks left on his lips.
But why did Chen Zhenhui's mother and daughter suddenly become submissive? Want to know what kind of method the mother uses? Madame Jade chuckled and asked rhetorically about the first meeting.
Nodding at first sight, this is indeed one of the questions she wants to ask, how could Aunt Chen, who has been arrogant and domineering for so many years, restrain her momentum within a few days, and it will not be so simple because her father is not at home.
Mrs. Yu lowered her eyes, her eyes condensed a layer of bright and deep light, her voice was low and deep, and she said very calmly, "Although the Yu family is not an official family, there are not many rules, but it is not nothing, I have allowed Chen Zhenhui to be presumptuous for so many years, it is not that there is no rule of law for her, but I feel that there is no need for that, people endure it again and again, there is always a time when it is unbearable, she asks for the ** management institute, your father complied with her wishes, came to me and said, I agreed...... A concubine alone in the management of the courtyard is such a humiliating thing, the old people in the clan will naturally not sit idly by, Chen Zhenhui does not know how to resist the old people in the clan, thinking that others will tolerate her presumptuous like me, everyone in the clan scolded her for not understanding the rules, and asked Yu Yunsheng to expel her from the house, although Yu Yunsheng doted on Chen Zhenhui, but he was a person who loved face, Chen Zhenhui was punished for being grounded for a day and thought about it behind closed doors, and the patriarch asked me to re-establish the rules, and I could not allow the concubine in the family to have no one in her eyes, and lost the face of the Yu family. ”
Mrs. Yu said plainly, as if she was telling other people's stories, there was no sadness or sadness, only an empty space, "The day before Yu Yunsheng was going out, Chen Zhenhui wanted to eat at the same table with me and Yu Yunsheng, I said two words to her, she slapped the table and got up, and said in front of Yu Yunsheng that I was a fox and a fake tiger, and I was ...... I made people slap their mouths for twenty. ”
"Ah, that father...... What's the reaction? "I was surprised at first sight, Mrs. Yu has never liked to punish others, and it seems that Chen Zhenhui must have said something ugly that day.
He ...... He didn't say anything, just asked Chen Zhenhui to cook for me. The corners of Madame Yu's mouth were slightly raised, full of sarcasm.
When I saw Xiu's eyebrows frowning lightly, my mother began to have a melancholy at some point, as if time couldn't make her happy anymore.
"Mother, since Aunt Chen doesn't dare to do it again, ...... you Why did you still give Qiuyu to Cui Yin? Hatsumi asked softly.
Mrs. Yu's eyes flashed, and she said softly, "Qiu Yu once served Cui Yin, and her reputation is damaged, and Cui Yin now has no wife and concubine, so she needs a waitress to wait, why not allow Qiu Yu to give it to him?" ”
"But, mother, Cui Yin...... He doesn't like Qiu Yu, and if he is promised so strongly, they won't be happy. Thinking of Xiuniang, my heart became inexplicably uncomfortable when I saw it for the first time.
"Qiu Yu is infatuated with him, how can he not be happy, you are still a child, you don't need to know much." Madame Yu's voice became more and more gentle, but her words were a little evasive.
"Mother promised Xiuniang to Yan Shu at the beginning, Xiuniang was also unhappy, why add more Qiuyu now?" She was afraid that one day in the future, Qiu Yu would resent her mother.
Mrs. Yu was stunned, her eyelids trembled slightly, she naturally knew that Xiuniang resented her now, and she also knew that Qiuyu might have the same fate as Xiuniang, but ...... She's still ruthless, she's selfish, she knows.
"Mother ......" first saw holding Mrs. Yu's hand, blaming herself for not provoking her mother's sore spot, her mother ...... is also forced to be helpless, "Maybe, maybe Qiuyu will be different." ”
Mrs. Yu smiled clearly, knowing that this was the first time she was comforting herself, "First time, you don't have to comfort your mother, although Qiu Yu loves Cui Yin deeply, but if she doesn't get Cui Yin's pity, she won't be happy in this life, she is also a woman, and her mother understands this truth, but, child, life is in the world, it is impossible to really be selfless, people always have to plan for themselves, sacrifice some interests of others for themselves, although selfish, but also have to do it, you will understand in the future." ”
In order not to destroy the heavens and the earth for herself, she understands this truth, and she herself is also a selfish person, how can she not know the reason why her mother did this.
"Mother, I understand." Hatsumi whispered back.
Mrs. Yu smiled lightly, although she can sacrifice the happiness of others to seek the future for herself, but she doesn't want to calculate others like herself in the future, but she still has to teach Chujian to listen, don't calculate others, and never let others calculate herself. "At first sight, my mother does not require you to be a person without scheming and simple thoughts in the future, you must be kind-hearted, but you can't let others calculate, you must know how to guard against others, understand?"
"Well, if people don't offend me, I naturally won't offend people." First sight smiled, nodded.
Madame Yu smiled with satisfaction, and then she seemed to think of something, "I saw Yu Xueling leave with you just now, but she found you?" ”
At first sight, her eyes were slightly dark, "She's drunk and talking nonsense about some impossible things." ”
"What did you say?" Madame Jade frowned, a little serious.
She said that her father went to Palmetto City this time because the Palmetto City wanted to marry a concubine, and she said that her father would ...... Will let me be a concubine for the lord of the city, mother, this thing...... It's impossible, right? Hatsumi asked.
Madam Yu's face was ugly, "Did she really say that?" ”
"Father, does he really do?" At first sight, his face turned pale and he couldn't believe it.
"Hmph, this matter will be talked about when your father comes back, don't worry, Shangguan Hui didn't dare to ask you to be a concubine, even if he really dared to speak, his mother would let him take it back." Mrs. Yu firmly comforted the first meeting, how could her daughter be someone else's concubine, if that Yu Yunsheng dared to ask her, there was really no husband and wife love between them.
"Mother, I will never be someone else's concubine." She couldn't allow herself to serve with anyone else, let alone a concubine of that family, and the mere thought of lying with an old man who was good enough to be her father made her tremble from her scalp to her toes, and her whole body felt a chill.
"Everything, wait for Yu Yunsheng to come back." Madame Yu's voice was firm, injecting a reassuring needle into her heart that was trembling at the first sight.
Chu Jian breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes looked carefully at Mrs. Yu, observing her face, "Mother, a few days ago, I met Chun Yuyan. ”
Madam Yu's face changed slightly, and her gaze turned sharply, shooting straight at Hatsumi, "What? ”
