Chapter 104: Mockery in the Dark
Thinking that this might be a special arrangement of the palace, several people didn't say more, and turned to Mama Zhao and said:
"In that case, then we won't bother here for now, and we'll meet at the palace in person another day."
Mama Zhao replied in the same way, and then Qi Zhenzhen and the others saw Mama Zhao enter the shop, Yao frowned slightly, she pulled Qi Zhenzhen into the carriage, and then said in a low voice, "Looking at this posture, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
Qi Zhenzhen was a little interested when she heard this, but looking at Yao's seemingly depressed appearance, she still didn't say much, just lowered her head, thinking that she would pester Aunt Rou to ask for a while, she just saw it.
So, Qi Zhenzhen didn't want to delay any longer, and hurriedly asked the carriage to hurry up to Qi's house. z.br>
And when Yao saw her behavior, she thought about it and knew what Qi Zhenzhen was worried about now, but she just smiled helplessly, and didn't talk much to teach, Zhenzhen was sensible enough, and she usually did things with some rules, she didn't want to restrain her too much, but made Zhenzhen unhappy.
At this time, Concubine Rou was in the Qi family, and she was also a little anxious, she couldn't help but walk around the garden, but Master Qi was drinking tea in the pavilion not far away, looking at her like this, she couldn't help but speak:
"You don't have to be in a hurry, didn't you let Mama Zhao go in person? The Yu family came to Pingcheng this time for the affairs of the palace, no matter how arrogant she is, when she sees Mama Zhao, she will also put away her temper."
Concubine Rou thought about it, but she only felt that what Master Qi said was indeed very reasonable, she didn't see Yu Zhaoyuan so anxious, now Concubine Zishu didn't see her a few times, and she also deliberately ran over to meet her.
With such an eager attitude, and with the second daughter of the head of the Yu family, it is easy to guess what she wants to do.
At this time, in King Jing's Mansion, it was so lively, Concubine Shu lowered her head and drank tea, her expression was quite cold, and Yu Zhaoyuan sat on her lower right, her expression was quite eager, and she only heard her say:
"The last time I met Niangniang, I was still in the palace, and then the concubine went out of the palace, and I often remembered Niangniang in my heart, so I came to meet this time, I don't know how Niangniang is now?"
Compared with Yu Zhaoyuan's eagerness, Concubine Shu calmly put down the tea set in her hand, raised her head and said with a light smile:
"I'm tired of Yu Zhaoyuan's concern, everything is okay in this Ping City, if Yu Zhaoyuan remembers, just ask someone to write a letter, why come in person?"
Yu Zhaoyuan was slightly blocked by this sentence, and there was a trace of anger hidden in her heart, didn't this person pretend to be confused? Why the hell is she here? Didn't the greeting note she sent over make it very clear? If it's okay, why would she be so tired and come to this flat city to look at each other's cold eyes?
These days, Yu Zhaoyuan has been handing over the Yu family's greetings to Concubine Shu, and there are probably more than a dozen letters, but the other party has been delaying, Yu Zhaoyuan knows that although the other party said tactfully, this is clearly unwilling to meet, just because of Concubine Shu's attitude, even the Zheng family's subordinates who were quite flattering at the beginning were a little perfunctory to her, after all, although the Yu family is also a family, but whether it is in status or identity, it is far inferior to the Zheng family, she deserves to be so flattered by them, Naturally, it's a relationship with Heicheng.
Now they feel that she is not as close to Concubine Shu as she said before, so her attitude towards him is also cold, and Yu Zhaoyuan has also been dotted many times these days, which makes them serve more carefully, and in addition to being busy with this matter, she also has to teach Yu Xiu that fool from time to time.
It's just that the other party is really stupid, but she is still very self-righteous, she thinks she is very shrewd, she has told a lot of truths, but she only takes it as a deaf ear, if it weren't for the fact that she is the second daughter of the Yu family and the daughter of the head of the Yu family, and she has to rely on the head of the Yu family to gain a foothold in the Yu family, Yu Zhaoyuan would not want to teach this fool for a long time.
When she thought of this, Yu Zhaoyuan couldn't help but frown, she lowered her head and took a sip of tea, but in fact, she secretly glanced at Concubine Shu sitting on it as if she was drinking tea, and saw that the other party was dressed quite simply.
Wearing a light-colored skirt embroidered with peony flowers, the bun is just slightly combed with a hairstyle, fixed with a hollow red chrysoberyl hairpin, which is obviously a very casual dress, but looking at the texture of her clothes, as well as the craftsmanship of the hairpin hollowing out, it is very exquisite, anyway, Yu Zhaoyuan has never seen such exquisite craftsmanship before.
And seeing that Concubine Shu looked indifferent, the people around her obeyed her orders, and Yu Zhaoyuan was even more jealous.
She trembled in the Yu family, relying on all kinds of business to get a little attention, but Concubine Shu is far less smart than her, but she is so proud, the other party thinks that she is good friends with her, but she didn't expect that her secret calculations over the years have her handwriting, when she thinks of this, Yu Zhaoyuan can't help but be proud, no matter what, she always has the means to play with her in applause.
If Yuxiu can really go to King Jing's Mansion, then her position in the Yu family will be more stable, so Yu Zhaoyuan calmed down a little before she was angry by Concubine Shu, and smiled and wanted to reply, but before she could move, she saw a mother-in-law walking in quickly outside, and bowed to Concubine Shu, but she forgot about her.
"It's really unruly? With such a lazy attitude, if she had been in charge before, she would have ordered her to be beaten up a hard time, so that she would know what the rules are and how to follow them."
The grandmother was just about to reply, but when she saw Yu Zhaoyuan on the side, she was a little entangled, she looked at the concubine Shu above, lowered her head slightly, Concubine Shu looked at her action, first laughed lightly, and then said softly:
"There is something to report, Yu Zhaoyuan is not an outsider, there is no need to hide her."
Hearing Concubine Shu say this, Yu Zhaoyuan couldn't help but feel a little proud, she felt that the other party probably still regarded her as a friend, since this was the case, it would be more convenient for her to do things, Yu Zhaoyuan was thinking about how to speak for a while, but what the woman said surprised her, and only heard her say:
"Yes, Qi Yu Niangniang's words, we came to the silver building outside a troublemaker, the other party disliked the color and style of our silver building jewelry, the shopkeeper originally asked her to go to other places to see, but unexpectedly the other party took a fancy to someone else's customized hairpin, said to buy it, after being rejected by the shopkeeper, she was angry and smashed the decoration in the silver building.
Seeing that she was so unruly, the shopkeeper originally wanted to find her to pay compensation, but she was very arrogant and said that she was the daughter of the Ningzhou Yu family, and for this reason, the shopkeeper did not dare to make a decision without authorization, so he specially sent his subordinates around him, and wanted to ask you to get an idea and see what to do?"
Originally, when she heard the previous words, Yu Zhaoyuan was still secretly pursing her lips, thinking where the hell is this idiot? Compared with the other party, even Yu Xiu, who has always acted recklessly, seemed a little gentle, but before she was ready to watch the show, she heard the other party mention the name of the Yu family.
Yu Zhaoyuan was a little stunned for a while, and couldn't help but put the teacup in her hand on the table with a bang, and when she saw Concubine Shu and the mother-in-law turn around together, there seemed to be a little puzzlement in their eyes, and Yu Zhaoyuan said embarrassedly:
"I wonder what that young lady looks like? Maybe I know her." Yu Zhaoyuan's posture on the surface was quite calm, but secretly she frowned, she thought in her heart that it should not be Yu Xiu, otherwise she would have come to see Concubine Shu in person regardless of her face, and all the calculations she thought about would become a joke.
How could the other party ask such an arrogant and unreasonable woman to enter the palace? No matter how smart she prides herself on, she is embarrassed to open this mouth, but the description of the woman after listening to what she said made Yu Zhao frown, it is true that this appearance and every move are Yu Xiu.
Yu Zhaoyuan couldn't help but sigh, then stood up and saluted Concubine Shu, and then said with a little apology:
"Niangniang, I'm sorry for your trouble, this woman should be the young lady of the Yu family that I brought to Pingcheng this time, she has always been a little naïve, maybe she did such a reckless thing without checking for a while, I will definitely bring her to the door to ask for the guilt in person another day, if Niangniang has nothing to say now, I will deal with this matter first."
And after listening to her words, Concubine Shu seemed to be very surprised and opened her mouth slightly, and then felt a little out of shape, so she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and whispered:
"In the past, I only saw Yu Zhaoyuan, you have quite decent rules, but I don't want Miss Yu to come from the Yu family with you, but your temperament is so straightforward, you don't need to say those things that are out of sight, we have known each other for so long, why are you so polite to me? It's just that I can say more, this Miss Yu's rules really have to be taught well, otherwise it will be the face of the Ningzhou Yu clan."
Yu Zhaoyuan heard Concubine Shu say that Yu Xiu was very straightforward on the surface, but this secretly meant, Yu Zhaoyuan was not a fool, listening to Concubine Shu's tone, she naturally knew what the other party's attitude was.
She only felt embarrassed and angry, this stupid pig wasted her plan for her like this, she didn't wait for outsiders to calculate, she lost her face, and in the future, the matter of the Yu family and King Jing's mansion, Yu Zhaoyuan was embarrassed to mention it again.
Thinking of this, Yu Zhaoyuan couldn't help but sigh a little weakly, and then looked at Concubine Shu's eyes with some concern, but actually very mocking, Yu Zhaoyuan hurriedly got up and retreated, she was such a delicate person, she forgot to greet her, and her steps were hurried, and she trotted away without waiting for Concubine Shu to stay.
