Chapter 19: Big Things Small
Hearing this, Shi Qingsong suddenly snorted coldly: "It has nothing to do with you? This puppet was dug out of your yard, and you dare to quibble!"
Qiu Yingyao on the side also had tears in her eyes, and said mournfully: "Miss, the concubine knows that her identity is humble, but Rou'er is your own sister in the end." As the saying goes, there are no more than three things. The concubine body will not be held accountable for the last time, and this time the concubine body still forgives you, you admit your mistake, can you change it in the future?"
What she said was sincere, but she was angry with Shi Qingsong on the side.
"What do you say, isn't it the first time she's done it?"
Qiu Yingyao immediately covered her mouth, shook her head and said, "Master, everything has already passed, don't pursue it." After all, the eldest lady is still a child. ”
But when she said this, the big girl next to her, Lu Yao, couldn't help it, stood up, knelt on the ground and said, "Aunt is kind-hearted, but the slave can't hide it." The second lady's face was almost disfigured before, which was caused by the eldest lady's curse with a witch curse. Last time, my aunt had already received all the stolen goods, but she thought that the eldest lady was young and thought that harmony was precious, so she suppressed the matter. Who knew that instead of repenting, the eldest lady became even more violent, which obviously wanted the life of the second young lady! Master, you have to make decisions for your aunt and young lady. ”
As soon as she said this, Qiu Yingyao's expression became more and more pitiful.
Shi Miaoyu saw their master and servant singing and harmonizing on the side, and her heart became more and more sneering.
And this appearance fell in Shi Qingsong's eyes, and he was even more angry, gritted his teeth and said: "You unrepentant rebel girl, it seems that Benhou is really negligent in disciplining you on weekdays!
"Father, is it true that there is no distinction between right and wrong?"
Shi Miaoyu looked at the people around him coldly, and then looked at Shi Qingsong: "I am your daughter, but you listen to the words of a wandering Taoist and a maid, and you want to dispose of me?"
When Shi Qingsong heard this, he said in a deep voice: "Hmph, now that the human and material evidence are there, how can Ben Hou not distinguish between right and wrong? It is clear that you are quibbling." ”
"So, you're going to punish me for your own actions?"
Hearing Shi Miaoyu's words, Shi Qingsong frowned, and said, "Do you think Ben Hou has wronged you?"
"Isn't it?"
Shi Miaoyu sneered, but reined in all her edges, lowered her eyebrows and said, "However, it doesn't matter whether you are wronged or not. Don't say that I didn't do this, and even if it is, you can't move me. ”
When she said this, Qiu Yingyao's heart suddenly jumped, and she felt uneasy for no reason.
But before she could think clearly, she heard Shi Miaoyu continue: "Because-I am the only one of your available daughters now." ”
As soon as she said this, Qiu Yingyao on the side suddenly stared at Shi Miaoyu.
She finally knew why she was upset, Shi Miaoyu was stabbing her in the heart!
And Shi Qingsong's expression was even more uncertain.
He didn't forget a word of what the emperor said at the palace banquet. Shi Miaoyu is right, he has no sons so far, only these two daughters, if he wants to consolidate his power, he must use his daughters to marry.
But when the emperor's words came out that day, even if he favored Shi Miaorou, it was impossible for him to find any good relatives for her, let alone befriend a nobleman.
It can be said that Shi Miaorou's future fate was already doomed on that day, either marrying a petty official from a poor family under his pressure, or marrying a businessman.
However, Shi Miaoyu is different.
Muyang Houfu's identity, coupled with the Lin family's money, her future can be said to be unlimited. If it can be sent to the palace, it will be in Muyang Houfu, but it will be a great creation.
It's just that let him be soft with a little girl at this time, but Shi Qingsong can't do it.
Therefore, he immediately snorted coldly and said, "What do you mean by this, Ben Hou has always been fair to you two sisters!"
Shi Miaoyu didn't plan to talk to him more on this topic, but he stopped at the point, and then changed the topic: "When I went to the street today, my daughter happened to meet King Anling. Although there were only a few words at that time, the words also mentioned the deep hatred of witch doctors, and he said that even the emperor called these things to fool the women of the countryside. Our Muyang Houfu has won the emperor's favor, but we have invited a witch doctor to come, if the emperor knows, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?"
When she said this, she intentionally or unintentionally revealed the jade pendant on her waist. That was before leaving, she snatched it from Gu Qingchi.
After all, if she wants to take advantage of the situation, she must also have a token that others believe in.
Shi Qingsong naturally saw the jade pendant as well.
His face was bright, and he said after a while: "Is this how your mother taught you on weekdays, and she is used to such a stubborn temperament." Fortunately, King Anling is a person who keeps etiquette, otherwise if it spreads, the reputation of Muyang Houfu will be ruined by you! You should not go out in the next two days, and copy Buddhist scriptures in the room, and if you can't finish copying a book, you will not be allowed to come out!"
This is the meaning of turning big things into small things and small things into small things.
Previously, although the queen had promised the Shi family that she would give Shi Miaorou to Gu Qingchi as a side concubine. But on that day, the palace banquet Shi Miaorou behaved like this, and the queen's promise was naturally invalidated.
But when he saw Shi Miaoyu's jade pendant today, Shi Qingsong suddenly turned to other thoughts.
The queen's preference is not as good as the lord's favorite. What if this Shi Miaoyu is lucky and is taken by Gu Qingchi?
His mind was fighting, but he was angry with Qiu Yingyao on the side.
She said with tears in her eyes: "Master, our Rou'er ......"
Without waiting for her to finish, Shi Qingsong waved his hand first and instructed his subordinates: "If someone goes to post a notice, they will say that a famous doctor will be rewarded with a heavy amount of money, and if there is one who can cure Rou'er's face, Benhou will reward a thousand taels of silver." As for this witch doctor, he dares to come to the mansion to swagger and deceive, it is simply extremely hateful! Kick him out and never be allowed to enter my Muyang Waiting Mansion!"
Qiu Yingyao looked at this scene dumbfounded, and before she could speak, she saw Shi Qingsong grab her hand, and said with tenderness: "Yao'er, this kind of thing to fool rural women is just nonsense, you don't want to be deceived by him." Don't worry, Rou'er's illness, Benhou will definitely find someone to cure her. ”
These few words of his closings of today's events have been put to a conclusion, and he thinks that he has handled it very satisfactorily. At this moment, the butler at the door came to invite, and immediately shook his hand and left the courtyard.
Only Qiu Yingyao in the room was left, and her face sank instantly, and the yin could almost drip water. She stared at Shi Miaoyu coldly, gritted her teeth and said, "The eldest lady is really a good means." ”
Hearing this, the corners of Shi Miaoyu's lips hooked slightly, and she said lightly: "It's not as high as my aunt's means, but I'm not in a hurry after a long time." ”
Qiu Yingyao punched the cotton, and her face became more and more ugly. She flicked her sleeves fiercely and was about to go out, but she didn't want to hear Shi Miaoyu's voice ring again as soon as she stepped out of the threshold.
"Auntie, it's dark and the road is slippery, watch your step. If you break the phase, maybe your father will have to find a new love. ”
