Chapter 63: The Best Is Yet to Come
Yun Zhang snorted coldly and told Yun Wei about the matter carefully: "Wei girl, Qingshan Academy only gave two places to come out. You can go to Castle Peak Academy at any time! But you still have three younger sisters......"
"This" Yun Wei was slightly surprised, "what should I do then?" There is only one place left, which sister does my father plan to accompany me to study at Castle Peak Academy? ”
Yun Zhang's face was pale, and he slapped his palm on the desk: "Princess Kang is really too deceitful to do things like this!" And you, little girl, didn't you make it clear to the princess? "Otherwise, why did you only get two admission papers?
Yun Wei was very understanding, and hurriedly persuaded: "Father, why don't I go to Qingshan Academy, and give up all the places to my sisters." Look, is that good? ”
She said so, Yun Zhang naturally couldn't blame her for this matter anymore, but he was annoyed by Prince Kang in his heart.
It's just that she is a princess, and if he is angry, what can he do!
Yun Zhang gradually calmed down. "Wei girl, I know that you are a good and sensible boy, but Qingshan Academy, you must go. After all, you are the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion and the eldest sister of Xiang'er and them. So, no matter what, Xiang'er and the others can't get past you. ”
Is that really the case? Isn't it because his name is already written on the paperwork?
Yun Wei sneered, lowered his eyes and didn't speak, only made a quick and envious look.
The anger in Yun Zhang's heart disappeared a little more.
He thought again, after all, she won the favor of the emperor and made a splash at the concubine selection banquet, and it was this daughter. Now, before the concubine selection banquet has a result, you can't offend her.
Yun Zhang's face looked a little better.
What's more, the number of places in Qingshan Academy is already limited, and there are many famous ladies and nobles in the capital who are competing for these places. Even with the face of Prince Kang's mansion, if you want to take four of them at once, I'm afraid it's not easy. ---- easy to be hated!
And the Liu family and Yun Xiang offended Mrs. Zhu again, Mrs. Zhu did not hesitate to be a member of the Yun family, but now she can see the face of the princess, give two places, and try her best to protect Yun Wei, which is originally very rare.
From this point of view, the princess did this for the good of the Yun family.
Otherwise, the Yun family would take away four places at once, which would not only be hated by the powerful families in the capital, but also make Mrs. Zhu feel that the Yun family's heart was too wild. If this is the case, even if several daughters go to Qingshan Academy in the future, I am afraid that they will be hated and calculated.
At that time, Mrs. Zhu didn't like the Yun family in the first place, but she was afraid that she would push the boat with her hands, and maybe she would persuade the Yun family's daughter to leave...... If it really comes to that time, the Yun family's face will be gone!
The more Yun Zhang thought about it, the more he felt that Princess Kang had good intentions.
"The princess deserves to be the princess, but I am in love!" Yunzhang is overjoyed.
Proper sacrifice is the best situation.
Yun Zhang's face had a smile.
Yun Wei looked at him blankly, "Father, daughter doesn't understand." ”
Yun Zhang laughed and said to himself: "It's still the princess who is smart, this knowledgeable woman is really different, unlike the Liu family's who can't be on the stage!" Then he said, "Wei girl, you shouldn't understand, you should go to the academy in the future, and you will understand if you learn more." ”
It's not that he looks down on his daughter, but he thinks that Yunwei is a country girl with a simple mind and no scheming, so it's normal to not understand this.
Yun Zhang regretted a little, if he could marry a smart woman like Prince Kang, maybe he would have taken the stage to worship the prime minister and the opposition by now.
All of this is to blame on the woman of the Liu family, it was she who confused herself with her means at the beginning, and she remembered the old love for a while, which corrected her.
Now, it's too late to regret it.
Yun Wei nodded, said yes obediently, and then raised his head and said, "Father, now Mrs. Zhu is willing to let her daughter go to Qingshan Academy to study regardless of her past suspicions; So shouldn't we prepare a generous gift to send over? ”
The smug expression on Yun Zhang's face froze, and a look of pain flashed in his eyes.
A generous gift plus the silver that was supposed to be given, that's a lot of money.
However, this money must be spent.
"It's still a little girl who thinks thoughtfully." Yun Zhang said with a painful face, "Ming'er, I'll ask people to go to the treasury to pick a generous gift and send it to Qingshan Academy." ”
Yun Wei pursed her lips and looked at Yun Zhang without saying anything.
"What's wrong, little girl?" Yun Zhang asked, putting on a fatherly face. "Is there anything you can't say in front of your father?"
"Father," Yun Wei glanced at him gratefully, and then said glutinously, "With Mrs. Zhu's identity, she only sends a housekeeper to give gifts, but I'm afraid that it will not be respectful enough." Therefore, the daughter thought that this gift should be given by the lady herself......"
Before she finished speaking, Yun Zhang waved his hand, "Madame doesn't have to go." "Liu's slut offended Mrs. Zhu, and now let her give gifts, isn't it just to make Mrs. Zhu angry?
It's really not appropriate to let a housekeeper give gifts......
After thinking about it, Yun Zhang said again, "Wei girl, you should send this gift in person." You are the eldest daughter of my Hou Mansion, with a noble status, and you are about to enter Qingshan Academy, so it is most suitable for you to go. In this way, the gift will also be selected by you personally, so that after Mrs. Bamboo knows about it, she can also show your sincerity, and maybe she will like you more because of it. ”
Yun Wei lowered his head and said yes happily, and the corners of his lips raised slightly.
It's good, mother's things, she can get back some more of them in the name of justice.
After taking care of this matter, Yun Wei decided to add the last fire tonight to this Hou Ye scumbag.
She looked at Yun Zhang expectantly, and asked excitedly, "That'...... I wonder when my daughter will be able to go to Castle Peak Academy to study? ”
The sooner the better, of course.
But the quota for the other daughter has not yet been decided...... Thinking of this, Yun Zhang became annoyed again.
Which daughter should you choose?
Yun Zhang hesitated for a moment before saying, "Then three days later." "Three days should be enough time for the Liu family to choose a daughter, right? If she can't even do this little thing, then she is not worthy of being the housewife of the Hou Mansion.
Yun Zhang couldn't pay attention to it, so he simply didn't want to do it, and directly threw this problem to the Liu family.
Yun Wei nodded obediently, and said a few words of filial piety to Yun Zhang, and then retreated from the study.
Out of the study, walking under the quiet and unmanned nine-curved corridor, a few ripples rippled in the cloud's slightly blue eyes.
She just set a trap at random, and there will be a lot of excitement in this Hou Mansion!
And she just needs to sit aside with melon seeds and fruits, and watch the excitement with cold eyes.
Sure enough, soon Yun Zhang informed the Liu family of the matter.
“…… That's the way it is. You are the mother of the children, and you are responsible for raising your daughter. Now, choose one of your three daughters. Yun Zhang really threw the problem to the Liu family.
The Liu family was unwilling to send a daughter to Qingshan Academy, his eyes rolled, and he deliberately said: "Master Hou, I'm afraid that the eldest girl did it on purpose." Since she can ask Prince Kang to come forward, why can't she ask for a few more places to come back? The eldest girl is doing this, obviously deliberately trying to provoke conflicts between the sisters, Master Hou! ”
If she said this before Yun Wei's misleading, Yun Zhang would definitely suspect Yun Wei.
But now, Yun Zhang believes in Prince Kang and Yun Wei even more, and Liu's crying seems weak and out of place.
Yun Zhang originally regretted correcting such a woman who had no knowledge and could not be on the stage, but after hearing these words at this moment, he felt irritable, and felt more and more that the Liu family had no knowledge, so he turned around and went to the courtyard of his aunts with a cold face.
Liu's crying came to an abrupt end.
But at this moment, she couldn't care about Yun Zhang's departure, because Yun Zhang had already told her that she had to give an answer within three days. Otherwise, when the time comes, if there is no one to choose, then no one will have to go.
But her three daughters are all her own, which one should she choose?
Liu was in a hurry, and hurriedly asked people to call all three daughters over.
After the third aunt Su received the news, she went to Zhiwei Courtyard overnight.
"Big girl, why did you still win a place for the daughter of the Liu family to go to Qingshan Academy for gilding?" Su Shi asked puzzled.
Yun smiled slightly. "Auntie, don't be impatient, the best is still to come?"
"What's the show?" Su Shi was curious, tilted his head and asked Yunwei.
Yun smiled and said nothing, forced by the Su family, so he whispered in his ear, "Auntie, don't worry, if you want to watch the play, can you do me a small favor first?" ”
……
Early the next morning, as soon as Yun Wei arrived at the dining room in front of him, he saw that there was already a lot of noise inside.
For the place that could go to Qingshan Academy to gild, Yun Xiang and Yun Ying almost rolled up their sleeves and fought.
Yun Xiang ridiculed Yun Ying, saying that she had a reputation for stealing and killing people at a young age, even if she went to the academy, she would not be liked, it was better to keep a low profile, hide from the limelight for a few years, and then go to the academy to study when she has the opportunity in the future......
Where is Yun Ying willing to admit defeat?
Who doesn't know how rare a place at Castle Peak Academy is! This time, if it weren't for the blessing of Prince Kang's mansion, how could their Yun family have such an opportunity?
Therefore, she will not give up this only opportunity no matter what!
So, Yun Laosi immediately ridiculed each other, saying that Yun Xiang had just made a big fool in the palace, and was kicked out of the palace and offended Mrs. Zhu, if he still had face at this time, how could he go to Qingshan Academy to annoy people with his own humiliation?
He also said that if Yun Xiang insisted on going to Qingshan Academy to show off at this time, that would be to push the Hou Mansion to the forefront and make others laugh......
These two people exposed each other's shortcomings with every word, and no one refused to give in to each other, so that the aunts and concubines on the side saw enough jokes.
Yun Zhang saw that the two daughters behaved like shrews, and his face was even more gloomy, and he glared at Liu fiercely.
