Chapter 325: Yuxi, You Can't Be Soft-Hearted
Pearl has been coming to the Eighth Elder Brother's Mansion for a few days, and she is serving Fujin closely, so the Eighth Elder Brother is a little good and likes Fujin, and he can see it more or less in his eyes.
Compared with the situation she had seen in the palace before, such as the eldest brother to the big Fujin, the fourth elder brother to the four Fujin, and even the emperor to the ladies, these little couple are really too polite.
But the eighth elder brother is not a good woman, and he snubbed Fujin when he messed with flowers outside, or because of the group of wives and concubines in the family.
In Pearl's opinion, the eighth elder brother doesn't seem to be focusing on the relationship between his children and daughters, he studies so hard and learns so hard, and wants to have a good future and get married, which is just a thing that should be done.
If Fu Jin changes to someone else, the eighth elder brother will definitely treat his wife well, but obviously, Fu Jin himself has a lot of expectations and expectations for her husband.
"Pearl, turn off the lights and go to sleep."
"Yes, Fu Jin, do you want to beat your legs, relax your body and fall asleep."
Beatitude Jin smiled bitterly: "I can't sleep, but how old am I, I enjoy these now, what should I do when I get old?"
Pearl hurriedly blamed herself: "It's the slave who is too talkative."
Beatitude Jin waved his hand, didn't care, and walked to the couch alone, and as the light in the bedroom went out, the courtyard was completely quiet.
Tonight is not the pearl night, after explaining the things inside and outside the house, she will go back to the residence to rest, who expected to go halfway, was stopped by someone, saw clearly that it was the steward at the other end of the study, asked her to be silent, quietly followed.
Pearl was scared, but she had to follow, and after entering the study without being seen, it took a long time to see the eighth elder brother coming out of the back room, so frightened that she lowered her head and her chin was almost on her chest.
"Don't be afraid, I'm calling you, just a few words."
"Yes, yes......"
Yinyu looked at the girl in front of him lightly and said, "Your life was saved by Fujin, and now I will take you out of the palace to be a big girl in the house, and I won't have to worry about it for the rest of my life."
Pearl said timidly, "Fu Jin's kindness to the slave and maid, the slave and the maid will not be able to repay it in a few lifetimes."
Yin Yu said: "I shouldn't have said anything about the matter between your master and servant, but apart from me, Fujin has almost no one to rely on in this world, and now you are also one."
Pearl shook her head vigorously: "Slaves don't dare to be."
Yin Yu still said calmly: "The guards under the Shenwu Sect once accompanied me to practice horseback riding in the school field, so I heard about something, Fu Jin today, is it planning to instigate the discord between the three Fu Jin and the four Fu Jin?"
"Master, there is nothing." Pearl hurriedly knelt down and said, "It's Sanfujin who speaks politely, it's Sanfujin who ......
Yin Xi looked down at the people on the ground, seemingly plain in speech, but with a majesty that could not be refused, and said, "Remember, don't instigate Fu Jin to quarrel with others, don't condone Fu Jin's impulsive actions, and more importantly, don't think that you can do something for Fu Jin and cause trouble. This is what I ask of you, and this is my bottom line, can you understand?"
Pearl nodded stiffly, "Slave, slave...... Understood."
Yin Xi asked, "Feeling wronged?"
Pearl shook her head: "The slave doesn't dare, but, the slave is still a little confused."
Instead, he said gently, "To put it bluntly, you are a servant, just do the things that you serve."
"Slave remembers."
"Then ...... tonight"
Pearl immediately replied, "The slave and maid have gone back to their room to rest, and no one has seen the slave or maid."
Yinxi didn't say anything more, and called the steward to take people down.
Leaving the study and returning to the residence under the cover of night, Pearl was already frightened and her legs were weak, and she lay on the side of the bed for a long time before she came to her senses, although her head was chaotic, but she understood one thing, she guessed correctly, the eighth elder brother didn't like Fujin, but he didn't like it much.
"Fujin, the slave is naturally loyal to you, but you also have to count on the eighth elder brother to live, don't you?"
Pearl calmed down and thought about how to live in the future, she is a person who came out of the palace, and her greatest ability is to live carefully.
Soon, it was time for the third elder brother's house to hold a banquet.
Early in the morning, the husband and wife went to the palace to salute and receive the reward
, I thought it was a formality, and the number of ceremonies was good, but who knew that the emperor actually received it in person, and also rewarded the four treasures of the study room used when he was a child to his grandson, and ordered the imperial dining room to give a banquet.
Even if everyone understood that this was the dignity that Concubine Rong earned for her grandson, Sanfujin only felt that it was her credit, and after leaving the palace and returning home, she showed off to her family and guests everywhere.
Today, Niu Hulu Mansion is also a guest, but Ying Fujin said that he would only attend the main banquet in the evening, and he would bring his children to the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion during the day, saying that since they were all dressed up and went out, it was better to take a look at Yuxi first.
"I heard that Sanfujin entered the palace to ask the Queen Mother to take the princesses back to the house for wine, but the Queen Mother rejected it. She really dares, what a big deal about the princess leaving the palace, and she is not the sisters of the third elder brother and one mother."
In the warm pavilion, Ying Fujin sat on the kang, took Yuxi's half-embroidered purse and looked at it, and said, "The third elder brother was such an honest person in the past, and the emperor really chose her to match a daughter-in-law with such a temperament as Sanfujin."
In front of her aunt, Yuxi didn't have to worry about hiding anything, and said, "Do you also think that the third elder brother is an honest man?"
Ying Fujin smiled and shook his head: "Everyone said so, I heard your uncle mention that the third elder brother is very smart and knows that he has no strengths among his brothers, and the emperor's favor for Concubine Rong is more than enough, so he will rely on his mother in peace, so that he can have what other brothers have, but it is cheaper than fighting for it."
Yuxi said: "Soon after the eighth elder brother got married, the third elder brother came to the house and said to Yinzhen in person that the eighth elder brother is a cunning child, and he must be careful in the future."
Ying Fujin couldn't help frowning: "Sure enough, Alinga still has some eyes for people."
Yuxi held his stomach with one hand and said, "I have made an agreement with Yinzhen, if this child is a kid, don't compare him with his cousins in the future."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Now Concubine Hui wants to take her grandson into the palace to raise her, so as to please the emperor, Sanfujin tasted the sweetness today, and she will also think that the emperor values their son. Yinzhen has worked hard enough in the harem of the imperial court, and I don't want my son to live like this as soon as he is born."
Ying Fujin said distressedly: "Isn't it, Niang Niang often says that the good between her and the emperor is fate, she just guards this fate, and she doesn't dare to fight for anything, but the emperor's kindness to her and to the children have become a thorn in the side of others."
At this time, the maid came in to tell that because Sifujin and Fang Fujin could not go out because they had a safe pregnancy, they could not go to the Third Elder Brother's Mansion to enjoy the banquet, and the Third Elder Brother's Mansion sent someone to send a box and invited Fujin and Fang Fujin to enjoy it at home.
"Send it to Fang Fujin, let her pick the one she likes to stay, and then send it to Song Gege." Yuxi commanded, "You don't have to send it over, if Song Gege doesn't want it, you will divide it."
The maid was ordered to retreat, and Yuxi opened her candied fruit jar and asked her aunt to taste it.
"I don't like to eat these, and I don't think about it at that time." Ying Fujin smiled, put down his purse, and said seriously, "Actually, I have one more thing to tell you today."
"Auntie just speaks."
"When Sanfujin entered the palace the day before yesterday to ask for peace, he met Bafujin under the Shenwu Gate, your uncle walked in front of the palace when he was young, and he was familiar with the Ouchi guards, so I heard them say that Bafujin deliberately rumored that you could enter and leave the Shenwu Gate at will, but the old three families didn't believe it easily, and confronted the guards in person, and then sarcastically mocked Bafujin before entering the palace."
Yuxi gently closed the candied fruit jar and said, "How did I offend her, does she want to be close to me, and I can't refuse it politely, I have to be a close sister to her?"
Ying Fujin said: "I heard that she used to have a very hard time in King An's Mansion, I don't know if this is the case, so she was born with a paranoid temperament, and what she can't get will be ruined before she is happy."
Yuxi sighed lightly: "It's all bad fate, before she was elected as the Eight Blessings, I met her on the road, and I also lent her the family's carriage. If I knew that she was going to be a concubine, I shouldn't have done any more things, so that she would mistakenly think that I was easy to get along with and would be willing to get along with her, but I was only kind for a while."
Ying Fujin said: "If this matter has not come out, it should be because the third family has not shouted, I don't know if she has learned smart by herself, or if Concubine Rong has taught her, the horizontal and vertical are better than before.
」
Yuxi shook her head helplessly: "Auntie, I really haven't heard of it this time, and Yinzhen hasn't mentioned it either."
"Brothers, Fujin, they all got married at a young age, and they used to make jokes and disputes, like children playing at home, but the more they grow up, the more they move seriously, Yuxi, you must be careful."
"What my aunt said is that in the emperor's house, how can we live in peace without fighting or grabbing, but surging rivers, and if we don't advance, we will retreat."
Ying Fujin said lovingly, "Don't be afraid, there is Niangniang, and we elders are here. No matter what Alinga is capable of in the court, as long as I am still the mother of the Niu Hulu family, the elbow of the Niu Hulu family cannot be turned outward."
Yuxi said with a smile: "Auntie, there is also the tenth elder brother, and the tenth elder brother is also the nephew of the uncle."
Ying Fujin asked rhetorically, "Then do you think that the tenth elder brother is successful?"
Although you don't have to be cautious when talking to your aunt, Yuxi doesn't want to speak ill of people behind her back, so she only says, "Auntie, don't worry, if Yinzhen and I are in need, we will never be polite to you."
Ying Fujin was happy at this time, picked up the purse and embroidered a few stitches, and heard the laughter from his son and Nian Tong frolicking outside, which made people happy to listen.
Ying Fujin said, "I don't expect his brothers or people in his clan to treat him well in the future, but with you here, if I am gone, he will still have someone to rely on."
"Auntie......
"Bah, bah, don't talk about that."
Yuxi didn't want her aunt to be embarrassed, so she said: "Think about it, it's really not easy for the eight elder brothers, the two of them are outside the palace, and they have nowhere to rely on, how much Bafujin expects from me, naturally how disappointed she is, it's not unreasonable for her to hate me."
Ying Fujin has always had a bold personality, and said seriously: "Good boy, others are not doing well, not because you are doing well, each has its own life. If we accumulate virtue and do good deeds instead of evil, and live our lives well, we will be worthy of heaven and earth. She has a rough fate, and I sympathize with it, but why should she hate you, it doesn't make sense. Yuxi, you can't be soft-hearted."
