Chapter 56: The most difficult to understand a woman's heart



On the first morning after Yun Ci's wedding, everyone got up early, waiting to see Mrs. Hou, even Danxin, but no one went to inform him.

Xia Yanran brought a combed hair maid from her mother's house, and carefully coiled her hair, and the sideburns and mist buns were extremely exquisite, indicating that from today on, she was married to a wife.

"Let's go, Mother Mojiao is in a hurry." Yun Ci stood behind Xia Yanran, looked at the face of Wu Dan in the bronze mirror, and urged softly.

Xia Yanran had a hint of shame between her eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "It's fine." After saying that, Shi Dai lightly stroked on his eyebrows, and then hurriedly got up: "Brother Jiao Bangzhi has been waiting for a long time." ”

Yun Ci was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked at her sideways: "Call me 'Hou Ye'." ”

Xia Yanran knew that she was speechless, bit her lower lip, and said, "The concubine knows her mistake, Master Hou." ”

"Let's go." Yun Ci didn't say anything more and strode away.

"Master Hou." Xia Yanran whispered behind her, and hurriedly lifted her skirt to keep up. She naturally knew that his legs and feet were inconvenient, and he took medicine last night...... But what are you doing in such a hurry?

Xia Yanran trotted a few steps before she could barely keep up with Yun Ci's pace, and couldn't help but gasp slightly, and asked, "Master Hou blames me for dressing up for too long in the morning?" ”

"Shouldn't a woman cherish her face?" Yun Ci's footsteps did not stop, and he replied with a light smile. On the contrary, she never applied powder, and her eyebrows were as light as a splashed ink landscape painting.

"The concubine is very concerned about her appearance, and she also thinks about it...... Today is the first time I have been able to make a good impression on my mother. Xia Yanran was not disgusted when she saw Yun Ci, and hurriedly added another explanation.

This time, Yun Ci only said "um" and did not speak again.

The two of them hurried all the way to Rongjin Hall, and the aunts and wives had already arrived, and they all paid a visit to the new Marquis and said some pleasing words. Only the fourth aunt Tai Luanqing was silent, still as cold as ice.

Xu was instructed by her mother's family, Xia Yanran was also very polite, and the maids who followed behind her gave the gift boxes they brought one by one, all of which were meeting gifts for the three aunts, and even Chi's mother and the faceless maids in Rong Jintang were also a copy of each.

After sending greeting gifts to each other, Mrs. Tai came out, ordered to go down and pass breakfast, and cordially pulled Xia Yanran to sit down together, shushing the cold and asking for warmth. The two aunts and wives were accompanying them, interjecting a few words from time to time.

Only Yun Ci and Luan Qing never opened their mouths from beginning to end. just watched their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have a deep affection, and they eat silently.

After breakfast, the third aunt and Mrs. retired with interest, and Xia Yanran talked with Mrs. Tai for a while, and got some rewards: "You first familiarize yourself with the situation in the house, and from next month, come to me every day to sit and gradually feed the middle." ”

Mrs. Tai actually ordered herself to preside over the feed! So fast! Xia Yanran obviously didn't expect it, a little flattered, and a little apprehensive: "Mother...... I'm new to the city, and I'm still inexperienced, so I'm just afraid of ......"

"Afraid of what? You are the lady of Lixinhou, and sooner or later you will carry this burden over. I'm old, and I won't be allowed to take a break? Mrs. Tai rarely showed a loving look, held Xia Yanran's hand, and said, "I didn't order you to take it immediately, learn first, and come over to ask me if you have something." ”

Xia Yanran was surprised and delighted, no longer modest, and admitted: "My daughter-in-law obeys her orders." ”

Mrs. Tai nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Yun Ci, who had been silent, and said, "I have some business affairs to discuss with Master Hou, you go to the outer hall and sit down, and wait for him." ”

Xia Yanran immediately got up, leaned out low, and was greeted by Chi's mother and went to the outer hall.

Only the mother and son were left in the house, and Mrs. Tai's smile faded a little, and she said to Yunci: "Why is it so late today?" The second and third rooms are waiting for you. There was a lot of anger in the words, but there was no mention of Sifang Luanqing. Naturally, in the eyes of Mrs. Xie, Luan Qing is just an orphan girl of different races sheltered by Yunfu as an aunt's wife.

Yun Ci was just silent, not silent.

Seeing this, Mrs. Tai said: "You have never been a late riser, if she gets up late and spends time grooming, shouldn't you urge?" ”

Yun Ci's thin lips hooked up a light smile, and he was a little mocking: "Your favorite daughter-in-law, I thought you thought she was good everywhere." ”

The corners of Mrs. Tai's eyes twitched slightly, and she had to say: "She is the only daughter of the Xia family, and it is inevitable that she will be a little pampered, but it doesn't matter, just teach it slowly in the future." When she takes over the feed, I'm afraid that she won't sleep anymore. ”

Yun Ci was still smiling and silent.

Mrs. Tai sighed softly again: "Last night...... Luckily? ”

"Very good." Yun Ci didn't hesitate: "My son obeys your instructions and must take spreading the branches as the first priority. ”

Within a moment, she was repeatedly confronted by her own son, and Mrs. Tai's heart was also a little blocked, and she lowered her voice: "I know you have a grudge in your heart...... I can't bear that kid...... Since they are all pregnant, why fight? You can hold it to Yanran to raise. ”

As soon as these words came out, Yun Ci suddenly got up from his seat, lowered his eyes and said with a deep voice: "You said it yourself, as long as she has no children, you will allow her to be by my side for a long time." ”

"Having said that, since you are pregnant, you shouldn't ......"

"I'd rather fight than let their mother and son be separated!" Yun Ci forcibly interrupted Mrs. Tai's words and said, "The Yun family has always given birth to their own children in each room, and the mother actually wants to take the child away and raise it, and where is Xiu located?" How do you see her? ”

His eyes were glazed, and he no longer looked at the high-ranking Mrs. Tai, and he didn't know whether to blame his mother or himself: "Since you were born to take it away, what are you going to do when you are born!" ”

"Yun Ci!" Mrs. Tai tore off the beads in her hand, and the Nanmu Buddha beads "snapped" and scattered all over the ground, rolling to the feet of Yun Ci, and the sound was extremely cold.

Yun Ci lowered his head to look at the beads that were dismembered on the ground, and only said lightly: "How many years, you rarely call me by my full name, so it can be seen that you are really angry today." Forgive your son for being unfilial. ”

"Are you complaining about me?" Mrs. Tai got up from her seat tremblingly, her face was full of coldness: "Are you accusing your biological mother for a prostitute?" She's such a scourge! ”

"Mother!" Yun Ci frowned and looked at Mrs. Tai, and the mother and son looked at each other for a long time before they heard him say: "The person you asked to marry, I married; You let the incense be extended, and I will do it; You didn't let her have a baby, and she had a miscarriage...... What else do you command, I will agree to it, and why should I be angry with her and be aggressive? ”

"Aggressive?" Mrs. Tai repeated it twice, and finally couldn't help it, and pointed at Yun Ci angrily: "This is my good son!" In the same four words, her husband accused her so much more than ten years ago, but she never thought that now her parents and children are doing the same.

Yun Ci still looked directly at his mother, and he no longer had the humility and deference he had before: "You are the head of the Yun family, Mrs. Xie, and you have been in charge of the clan affairs for ten years without any mistakes. Who dares to be presumptuous in front of you? The words were as cold as snow in the North.

"Good! Good! At last, Madame withdrew her hand tremblingly, slowly sat down again, closed her eyes and said no more. After a while, he seemed to have calmed down, and said quietly: "Today, you are still waiting to meet the new lady in the garden, Mo Jiaoyan has been waiting for a long time to see the joke, you can go." ”

"Even if my mother chases away guests, she will not forget the dignity of my Yun family." Yun Ci smiled in a cold voice, saluted and left.

After walking out of Rongjin Hall, Xia Yanran said cautiously: "Master Hou, your face is not very good, but you are tired?" Still leg disease......"

"It doesn't matter." Yun Ci only said: "If I feel uncomfortable, I will not hide it from you." ”

Xia Yanran smiled sweetly when she heard this, and the tears in the corners of her eyes were dripping, adding a little shyness and moving.

is obviously almost the same face, seven or eight points similar, speaking of which Xia Yanran is two years older than Xiu. But why...... She looks no more mature than Izumi, and even a little immature?

Or is his impression of her stuck seven years ago?

The more Yun Ci thought about it, the more he felt in a trance, which made him unable to distinguish the person in front of him. It was only when I saw the tear mole clearly that I made up my mind.

She is his wife, Xia Yanran.

Obviously, the newlywed Yan'er, but the two of them were silent, all the way back to Zhiyanxuan.

The subordinates were already waiting here, waiting to meet Mrs. Hou. Yun Ci sat straight up to the main seat in the hall, and Xia Yanran sat next to him, raising his eyes to look at the two rows of people.

There are many women and men, and there are few people, this is all the servants and maids of Zhiyanxuan.

Xia Yanran motioned to the personal maid Zhuoyan to bring a box, which contained all kinds of rewards, divided into categories, big maids, little maids, personal attendants, and nursing homes...... There is a fixed amount of what should be rewarded.

The housekeeper Yun Zhong was the first to come forward to greet him, and Zhu Ying followed. Xia Yanran knew the identity and status of these two people, and did not dare to slack off, so she smiled and gave a meeting gift.

After that, the light rhyme, the light heart stepped forward and bowed together. The shallow rhyme is not very different, the eyebrows are quiet and obedient and leaning over; Danxin was surprised, and his face was pale and almost out of shape. After that, some maids looked weird, but in the end, they were the ones who served Yun Ci, and they knew the proportions, and they didn't show too much.

Xia Yanran was suspicious in her heart, she wanted to grasp a certain idea but was a little powerless, and she couldn't help but pay attention to Yun Ci's reaction.

The dignified Lixin Marquis looked calm, and when he saw that everyone had seen him, he only said: "It's all gone, let's go and get busy." Then he turned to Xia Yanran and said, "I'll go to Qingxinzhai." ”

Is this an account of his whereabouts? Xia Yanran knew that he was busy with affairs, so she didn't say anything to stay, but only stood up: "Master Hou is leaving." ”

The people divided a path on their own, and watched the clouds and bamboo shadows go.

Seeing that the people had gone far, Xia Yanran returned to her seat, waved her hand and said to the servants and maids: "The Hou Ye has all orders, you guys disperse." After finishing speaking, he looked at the pale face and said, "Leave the light rhyme and the light heart." ”

Everyone saluted and said yes and respectfully retired.

Xia Yanran had already heard that Yun Ci and Shen Yu had a very good relationship, and before Yun Ci inherited the title last year, Shen Yu gave him a beautiful maid, and Tete brought it back from Jingzhou. But look at it today...... It's as if I didn't see this person.

Seeing that the hall was clean, Xia Yanran picked up the teacup and took a sip, and asked the two big girls with a light smile: "Today's subordinates of Zhiyanxuan have all arrived?" ”

Pursed her lips lightly and didn't say a word, Qianyun had to say truthfully: "There is a big girl next to Master Hou, who serves pen and ink full-time." She has been unwell recently, and Hou Ye has exempted her from daily salutes. ”

Full-time service pen and ink? That's a good job. Yun Ci has to take up more than half of it every day when he is fasting, don't the two of them have to face each other every day?

The result of the daily relativity is either disgust or affection. The person was specially brought back from Jingzhou, and it was obviously the latter.

Thinking like this, Xia Yanran asked casually: "Oh? What's her name? ”

"Out of Xiu." Qian Yun replied.

"If she's fine, she'll see her too."
