Chapter 107: The Yu Clan's Advice
The maids who were originally in the courtyard bowed their heads and were silent, worried that Yu Xiu would see them for a while, and they would make a fuss, heard the sound and hurriedly looked up, thinking that something had happened, but they saw Yu Xiu standing aside in a daze with her face covered, her eyes were a little incredulous, and Yu Zhaoyuan wiped her hands with a handkerchief, just looked at her lightly, her expression was quite disdainful.
This is strange, all of them know that Yu Zhaoyuan has a good temper, and she has always been generous, and there are many people who reward her, so although their maids are nominally serving Yu Xiu, they have a good impression of Yu Zhaoyuan, and even usually go to tell Yu Zhaoyuan about any gossip.
Because when she usually talks to Yu Xiu, she will only nod as a matter of course, but Yu Zhaoyuan often gives rewards, so the maids are quite enthusiastic about her, they originally thought that Yu Zhaoyuan was a good-natured person, even if they were usually quite polite to them, and they didn't put any money on the master
Therefore, the maids are more afraid of Yu Xiu than Yu Zhaoyuan, and they usually like to serve Yu Zhaoyuan more, but today they know that the other party is not angry, and even Yu Xiu, who has always been arrogant, was suppressed by her.
When Yuxiu reacted, she covered her face and raised her head, as if she had just reacted, and then she glanced at the group of maids kneeling on the ground, and saw that they didn't dare to look up, so she asked with a little anger:
"Auntie, even though my trip is indeed a bit reckless, but after all, I am the young lady of the Yu family, how can you embarrass me so much in front of everyone? At that time, when my father sent my aunt to bring me here, but after a thousand instructions, didn't my aunt think that she could become the head of the entire jade family if she obeyed the orders of the head of the jade family? I can't tolerate my aunt's humiliation?"
Yu Zhaoyuan originally made an impulsive move, but she regretted it a little, she didn't want to have a conflict with Yu Xiu so soon, after all, although the other party was not smart, but she did have some status in the Yu family, and although she could bring benefits to the Yu family, the head of the Yu family was the same as Yu Xiu, and Yu Zhaoyuan didn't want to bring Yu Xiu here before, and it was Yu Xiu who pleaded.
The head of the Yu family quickly agreed, and no matter how Yu Zhaoyuan said that he didn't want to take Yu Xiu in the future, he still didn't change his mind, and even his attitude was a little more determined, if he knew that he had punished Yu Xiu, although he would not say anything if he was persuaded by others, he would always use more means in secret, which really made people have some reactions.
It's just that soon Yu Zhaoyuan's slight regret was amused by the threat on Yu Xiuming's face, she pursed her lips with disdain, and said with a very cold expression:
"I'm still giving you some face, and I specially went to the head of the Zheng family and asked him not to spread this matter, otherwise do you think you have a lot of face in Pingcheng and the Zheng family? The trouble came to the door of King Jing's mansion, and I finally met the concubine, and before I could say a few words, the close grandmother next to me came to report that it was a domineering woman.
That woman made a lot of trouble in other people's shops, I thought who was so arrogant, but I didn't expect it to be Yuxiu you, don't you understand that you have not only lost your own face by doing this, but also the plans I conceived before, as well as the plan to unite with the Zheng family, have all been shelved because of your move?"

After that, Yu Zhaoyuan looked at Yu Xiu's expression that seemed to be slightly silent, and then continued in a cold tone:
"I've told you a lot, and you promised to be fine, saying that you would definitely take your temper, because I've always trusted you, but how did you do it? Take a step back and say, it's just that you do it, but can't you see it clearly? What are you doing here to toss and serve your maid with great fanfare?
Do you have face if they are ineffective and rude? They've been there for you since you were a child, they represent your decency, and if anyone else were to do it, they would choose to cover it up instead of making her everyone's laughing joke with a lot of fanfare like you.
I know that you always complain about me, you complain that I would rather take those women from the side branch of the Yu family than take you to Pingcheng, do you think so? But ask yourself if what you're doing is worth the attention of others
? It's true that your identity is relatively outstanding in the Jade family, but how can it be?
Think of the women I have carefully selected before, do you act like them? Is it thoughtful to do things? Are you gentle with others? How many times have I told you, have you forgotten it?"
After that, Yu Zhaoyuan sighed fiercely, looking very helpless, and Yu Xiu has always been a little soft and not hard, although she is reckless, she knows that Yu Zhaoyuan is insightful, at this moment hearing the other party's word-by-word teaching, she couldn't help but return to the things she did, and looked at the maids and mothers-in-law kneeling on the ground, her expression was a little lost.
Of course, Yu Xiu was not lost because she lost the face of the Yu family, nor was she disappointed because she made Yu Zhaoyuan busy in vain, she was disappointed that she lost face in Pingcheng, not only was she regarded as a joke by those who watched the show, but she was also not valued by Concubine Shu, and she couldn't even marry in the palace.
This made her braggadocio among those sisters a joke, and when she thought of this, Yu Xiu was even more lost, but he didn't want to be easily softened, so he just looked at Yu Zhaoyuan with his neck stalked, refusing to admit his mistake or talking more, but her attitude was still a little softer, not as domineering as she was just now.
Yu Zhaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her like this, after all, she was not too stupid, and she could still listen to some truth, since this was the case, it would be more convenient for her to say the following words.
Yu Zhaoyuan knew very well the truth of slapping a sweet date, so he didn't reprimand that Yuxiu this time, but helped the other party up, she first looked at Yuxiu's face with a little distress, wiped it slightly with a handkerchief, and then asked with great concern:
"How? But it hurts? You have always known that I just hate you but iron is not steel, although I also teach others among these sisters of the Yu family, I always care about you the most, otherwise I would not have spent so much time on you, you see that other people have bad rules, and I don't care a little more.
Yuxiu, although your appearance is not the most outstanding among the sisters of the Yu family, but it is the most suitable for my eyes, so I naturally want to find you a good husband, but what you are doing now makes Concubine Shu a little disliked, whether you want to talk about a marriage in Pingcheng or here in the Zheng family, you have to let Concubine Shu like you again first? What do you think?"
Yu Xiu originally wanted to discuss a few more words with Yu Zhaoyuan, but when she heard the other party talking about her marriage, she couldn't help but blush, as if she had thought of something, and said to Yu Zhaoyuan with some hesitation:
"Auntie, don't worry, I naturally follow your aunt's teachings, but now that I have done such a thing, is the concubine still willing to see me? I was indeed a little impulsive at the time, but the shopkeeper really didn't take my Yu family seriously, and there were a few women in the middle who were also sneering there.
I couldn't help but move my hand when I was annoyed, and I regretted it when I thought about it later, I didn't blame you, my aunt taught me with her heart, I know, if my aunt has any good way, I can say it and listen to it, Yuxiu should follow it."
Hearing her speak a little more organized, Yu Zhaoyuan showed a slight smile on her face, she nodded and said:
"The first thing you have to do is to let these maids who serve you get up first, and then go out to appease them, although they are not too safe to do things, but they also obey your orders, although you have done wrong, but you can't anger these maids, you should be lenient with them, so that you can spread some good reputation."
Hearing Yu Zhaoyuan say this, Yu Xiu seemed to hesitate for a moment, she was really dissatisfied with these stupid envoys and maids, and originally planned to sell them all, but she knew that she could no longer disobey Yu Zhaoyuan's orders at this time, the other party had just been a little dissatisfied, if she was so reckless, I am afraid she would be a little angry again.
So Yuxiu took two steps forward, looked down at the maids on the ground, and then said:
"Rise up for a moment, for it is true that I have made you angry with you today, and each of you shall go and receive two hundred pieces of silver, as if I have made it to you as compensation, now
I don't need you to wait here, so let's all go down and rest for the time being, and wait for another errand later today."
can be lazy and have money to take, these people are naturally willing, so they are busy smiling and saluting, and then say flattering words to Yuxiu, but Yuxiu is really too lazy to listen to them say these clichés, just nodded, and then waved their hands slightly to signal them all to retreat.
When they all returned to the room, Yu Xiu turned her head to look at Yu Zhaoyuan on the side, Yu Zhaoyuan pouted at Yu Xiu with a little sarcasm, but when she saw the other party's face, the corners of her mouth involuntarily appeared a trace of mockery, but she quickly covered it up again, and only heard her voice say gently:
"As for the other arrangements, I'll tell you more when I get back to my room, how many people are here."
After that, Yu Xiu hurriedly nodded at Yu Zhaoyuan, and Yu Zhaoyuan raised her head slightly to hint, so the two returned to the room and closed the door gently.
