Chapter 5: Tearing the Face
The crown princess didn't find out about the secret battle that had just taken place between the two daughters-in-law, so when arranging the attendants, she actually put Qiu Yulan and Chu Yitong together - although Queen Tao's illness was not life-threatening this time, she really needed to wait for a few days.
At present, the staff of the sick is headed by the crown princess, followed by Princess Gui and the family, Princess Ji Mi, and Princess Shou Huang; The granddaughters-in-law are also there except for Feng Hanyan, who is waiting to give birth, and there are nine of them; In addition, daughters, nieces, granddaughters, nieces, great-granddaughters, great-grandnieces and so on add up.
This is the advantage of having many children: when something happens to the elders, the task that is spread on everyone is really not too onerous.
Especially here is only counting the female dependents, after the court dispersed a while ago, the prince will definitely bring his brothers and nephews to come over to show it. Since the queen is a woman, she has to accompany the women at night, so they are basically given to the prince during the day - that is, they only need to be on night duty.
"It happened suddenly, everyone is not prepared to come, Yitong and Lulan are young, let them come this first night!" The princess's words are good, and she seems to have wronged her two daughters-in-law, but in fact, she is pulling the strings: Queen Tao will definitely not wake up tonight, saying that she is a daughter-in-law and a granddaughter-in-law to accompany her at night, but the dignified queen, how can there be no palace people and imperial doctors around to serve?
If Chu Yitong and Qiu Yulan were a little more shameless, they could do nothing this night, spend the night in the side hall of Zishen Palace, and then they could leave on the grounds that they had been sick - even if it was their turn in a few days, it was estimated that the queen would be almost fine......
In fact, the female relatives know the twists and turns in the middle, but in this situation, no one is stupid enough to reason with the crown princess for such a trivial matter, and everyone said: "Then tonight will be hard for these two children!" β
"So, the two of them stay, if there is anything else in your family that has not been disposed of, go back and deal with it first!" The crown princess was used to protecting the short guard, and she didn't feel sorry, so she calmly sent everyone away.
When everyone left, she left her two daughters-in-law and her own daughter Jiang Qizheng down and asked, "What about you?" Can you explain things at home? Are the children well accommodated? If not, let Zheng'er go for a while. β
"Back to my mother, my daughter-in-law had entrusted everything to the Gu family when she came, and I think she could take care of it." Chu Yitong shook his head, the Gu family has a special identity, and the crown princess is notoriously disdainful of concubines, so even if Chu Yitong hands over the power of the backyard to her to take care of it, she is not worried that she will dare to take the opportunity to take away her authority, so that Chu Yitong will not have to clean her up personally, and the princess will let her be a new person in minutes!
As for the child, Chu Yitong's biological daughter is only a daughter, and the Gu family has no biological son, so there is no reason to treat this little county lord badly.
So she suddenly entered the palace to serve, and she really didn't have to worry too much.
Jiang Qizheng said: "The horse's errand is leisurely, and it is okay to take leave, you can take turns with your daughter to take care of the children and the family, and the mother doesn't have to worry!" β
Qiu Feng's personality is not suitable for being an official, and he doesn't love power, but he is just leading the title of a concubine, but he is only the face of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, so he is casually appointed as an idle official - it doesn't matter if he goes to the yamen or not, now that there is something at home, he simply rests so as not to worry about his wife, and it is not in the way.
The crown princess nodded and asked Qiu Yulan, "What about you?" The four children are all young, and they have just moved, and the subordinates may not all take advantage of it, but do you want to ask Zheng'er to give you a hand? β
"Mother Lao is worried!" Qiu Yulan hurriedly said, "When my daughter-in-law came here today, I sent them to Dingxi Hou Mansion by the way, and asked Sister-in-law Ou to help take care of them for a few days, and now there is nothing to worry about." β
"Then you go to the side hall to put things first, and finish recuperating." The crown princess bowed, "Later, your father will bring someone to serve, and you will change hands in the eveningβit is better to sleep during the day or sleep for a while, so as not to lose energy at night!" β
The two thanked their mother-in-law for the reminder, and after exiting the door, their obedient and well-behaved expressions disappeared without a trace at the same time!
"I really feel worthless for the nineteenth brother!" Chu Yitong put her hands together in the wide sleeves of the light concubine color, and pressed them on the lower abdomen, Lianbu Shanshan, elegant manners, she didn't look at Qiu Yulan, it seemed to be talking to herself, "Since last year, my father's mind has become clearer and clearer, how much pressure has he carried?" I didn't even dare to pick a good one when choosing a mansion...... I think he was born in a noble background, and he was taken by the emperor's grandfather like a baby, when did he suffer? This time, I actually chose a place so far away in the south of the city, and it is still a dilapidated house with few rooms to use? β
"He has been wronged to such an extent, and the picture is to calm things down!"
"I don't want to be his wife, but you don't want to be wronged at allβwhat? Can't believe your golden and precious days are over? Scold! β
Qiu Yulan didn't look at her, looked ahead, and smiled faintly: "The eighth sister-in-law said this, is she trying to instigate our husband and wife to oppose the starling brother from now on?" Isn't that good? Although Starling is not kind enough to your sister-in-law, he has always treated our husband and wife well. I think I was angry and personally drove him out of the house, but he didn't care about me! Such a big uncle asked me to embarrass him with Nineteen, but he embarrassed me first! β
Speaking of this, she glanced at Chu Yitong, raised her sleeves to cover her mouth, and snickered, "Besides, although you don't care much about the eighth sister-in-law, compared to the previous eighth sister-in-law, the current eighth sister-in-law is heaven and earth!" If the eighth sister-in-law is not satisfied like this, isn't it too conscienceless? β
"Speaking of which, what you can say in front of me now is nothing more than the love of husband and wife!" A touch of resentment flashed in Chu Yitong's eyes, but he had only been stimulated once in the hall before, so he was not very out of shape at the moment, but the ten fingers in his sleeves were clenched fiercely, and then he said proudly, "Not to mention that you and Nineteen are still young, and you will grow in this life, and you don't know what will happen in the future...... Let's just say, even if he has been treating you well, but, one day, he himself is not good, you ...... And who else can you count on? β
She showed a playful look, "If he knew, it was because of you that he could have at least been a good prince, but he was cheated for a lifetime...... I don't know, what kind of face will he have on you then? Ha ha! β
"The eighth sister-in-law thinks it's really beautiful!" Qiu Yulan laughed out loud, and her sweet and crisp voice seemed to have a hint of happiness, "Eighth sister-in-law, you know that the starling treats you and nineteen treats me like the sky!" How can you still dream here that in the future, starlings will be developed, and you will be able to marry and have a noble wife? You must know that I can be the master of nineteen, but it doesn't mean that you can be the master of the starling......"
She suddenly stood on her feet, stretched out her hand and touched Chu Yitong's face - Chu Yitong's face sank, and she suddenly turned her head away and shouted, "What do you want to do?!" β
The entourage that had been following behind the two of them was silently pretending to be dead, but they were all taken aback, and they didn't dare to stand by anymore, so they came out to persuade peace: "Niangniang, please stop your anger!" β
"Princess Chongjun, this is the palace, do you want to do anything to our mother?!"
β¦β¦ The news that Qiu Yulan had just passed the door and smoked her sister-in-law was not a secret in the Jiang family. These subordinates also heard about it, but they were afraid that Qiu Yilan's old state would sprout, so they grabbed Chu Yitong and beat him.
However, Qiu Yulan just touched the corners of Chu Yitong's eyes lightly, and sighed compassionately: "This is also a beautiful and lovely face, I remember that you are not a year or two older than me, right?" Now I see that there are fine lines at the corners of my eyes...... Now I look five or six years older than me, and I'm my eighth sister-in-law! After a few years, I'm afraid that if you don't know, you will think that you are actually the meta match of the starling? β
In an instant, he changed his happy and smiling expression, the autumn waves flowed, and the charm was infinite, "How will you treat me after nineteen, what you said is really inaccurate!" However, when the eighth sister-in-law looks like you are the wife of the eighth sister-in-law, what about me, but I am very sure what the eighth sister-in-law will do to you...... Eighth sister-in-law, do you believe it or not? β
No matter what era, women are not afraid of old - especially after the tender dripping age has passed, Shaohua is still in the age when he has reached the end, he is simply hearing the word "old", and he has cut people's hearts - after all, when he is really seventy or eighty, it is useless to be afraid, but he can see it.
Chu Yitong, who is in his early twenties, in this era, is just like a fully blooming flower, and his bearing and charm are actually at the peak, but after the flowers are fully bloomed, the following is falling.
The passage of youth is painful for women, especially women who boast some colors!
In addition, the favor will be weak after the loss of youth - the most terrible thing is that status, identity and even life may be threatened, Chu Yitong even repeatedly warned himself in his heart: "She did it on purpose!" She did it on purpose! β
I still feel a majestic anger from the bottom of my heart, and it is simply surging and burning!
Before she calmed down, she had already pulled out a hysterical backhand slap: "Cheap. Woo! Who doesn't know how depressed you were at the beginning, saying that you were sold by the Qiu family to Gu Yan as a cousin and daughter-in-law, but in essence, it was not prepared for Gu Yan! If it weren't for the beauty of the river cliff frost, Gu Grace is now your blessing!! β
Qiu Yulan's eyes narrowed, and as soon as she raised her hand lightly, she grabbed her wrist, and then without waiting for the people around her to react, she cut Chu Yitong's right arm behind her with a reverse twist - Princess Huijun, who had never touched anyone at all, immediately screamed in pain!
It's just that she was born in the county lord of the previous dynasty, the princess of the county of this dynasty, and it is very likely that she will be the crown princess and queen in the future. The maid is shameless", "the fox is charming and seductive", there are no new tricks at all, and the lethality is pitifully low.
Qiu Yulan didn't say that she was angry, she didn't listen to it at all, and after signaling her subordinates to be obedient with a stern look, she said with a smile: "Eighth sister-in-law, look, in terms of bickering, you are not my opponent; When it comes to hands-on, you're still not my opponent. The most terrible thing is that if I will be fine in the future, I will be fine. And you? Starlings are good, you can't get better anyway...... I said, you have so much spare work, it is better to give yourself and Bao'er to think about the way back, don't you always look for me, isn't it boring to ask for yourself? β
After finishing speaking, she didn't embarrass her, let go of her hand, and let Chu Yitong stand up - the next person hurriedly hugged her and rubbed her shoulders and patted her back, and she was nervous: "Niangniang?" you, how are you? β
Qiu Yulan raised her hand and smiled: "The side hall for us to rest has arrived, my words, the eighth sister-in-law should think about it...... Eighth sister-in-law, you have always been very idle, and if you don't sleep, you can hold it at night, I don't have such a blessing, I can't sleep well, and I can't get up at night! β
After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and walked away with a sneer!
Chu Yitong hissed, looked at her distant back with great resentment, and gritted his teeth and said, "Cheap. Don't fall into my hands in this life, my wife!! β
"Cheap. Woman! Now I'm thinking about how to embarrass our couple in the future, so that you can have it in the future?! At the same moment, Qiu Yulan, who stepped into the side hall, was also ruthless in his heart, "Let's see!! β
