Chapter 38: The upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked
Everyone said that he relied on the Guogong Mansion to sit in this position, and after Chen Shiying's death, he also relied on his own ability to successfully sit in the position of a first-class member from a second-class member and became a prime minister.
But no one knows, they will always remember that he only relied on the Guogong Mansion to get to where he is today.
No man can accept such remarks, he also has dignity, and he doesn't want to live in the shadow of Chen Shiying forever.
Therefore, for him, everything thirteen years ago was all black history, and as long as he mentioned it, he was angry.
But seeing the old lady's ugly face, he could only suppress the anger in his heart and reassure: "Mother, you dissipate your anger first, this matter has been resolved." β
"It's solved, if it's solved, people outside won't laugh at our Xiangfu!" The old lady said angrily: "They also said that they were framed, if they didn't have the right mind and wanted to frame Yan'er, could there be such a thing!" β
"Usually it's okay to make a little fuss at home, but now it's embarrassing to go to the Guogong Mansion, that His Royal Highness the Prince is Yan'er's fiancΓ©, she is a younger sister, and her sister's fiancΓ© is mixed up, what will others say! I'm disgusted to listen to......"
The old lady pointed to Zhang Yunhui's mother and daughter, and every word was full of disgust for the two.
Originally, she just didn't like Zhang Yunhui before, and she was still very good to Xin Rou'er, her granddaughter, but now, she only felt that the upper beam was not right and the lower beam was crooked, her mother was a pickled scum, and being a daughter was not much better!
Zhang Yunhui and Xin Rou'er's faces were already difficult to see in the old lady's scolding.
But at this time, they could not speak, and every word they said was likely to add fuel to the fire and make the old lady even more angry.
I can only stand obediently and be trained.
As for Xin Nianyan, after being slapped by Xin Yuanwen, she honestly stood aside and didn't speak.
Listening to the old lady's words becoming more and more unpleasant, Xin Yuanwen only felt a headache.
When the old lady finally said that she was tired, he said: "Mother, we don't want that to happen, don't be angry, and now the marriage with His Royal Highness the Prince has been replaced by Rou'er, we just need to say to the outside that it was Rou'er who was married to the prince, but the people outside misunderstood, and after a while, everyone forgot about it, and this matter will be over." β
Hearing this, the old lady's anger eased a little.
"Then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is willing to replace the cigarette with Rou'er?"
Xin Yuanwen said: "Naturally, I am willing, and if something like that happens, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not responsible for Rou'er, it will also affect his reputation, not to mention that he and Rou'er are already in love." β
The old lady frowned, and her words were puzzled: "The prince and Rou'er are in love? β
Why didn't she believe it?
"Hasn't the prince been interested in Yan'er since he returned to Beijing?"
They all saw these in their eyes, otherwise they wouldn't often turn a blind eye to the prince coming to Xin Nianyan.
Zhang Yunhui said in a timely manner: "Mother, you don't know, in fact, His Royal Highness the Prince has always liked Rou'er, but when I thought that Rou'er was still young, I didn't let them communicate, who knew that Yan'er came back later, and somehow exchanged hearts with the prince, which made us all misunderstand, and gave Yan'er to the prince when the prince proposed marriage." β
She said this cleverly, and suddenly became Xin Nianyan shameless, and as soon as she came back, she snatched the prince and took away the prince's love.
Xin Nianyan sneered when she heard it, and she couldn't help but applaud her.
Fortunately, how the old lady looked at Zhang Yunhui at this time was not pleasing to her eyes, and when she heard her speak, she didn't listen to what she said first, and said in disgust: "Shut up!" β
Zhang Yunhui choked, closed her mouth in disdain, and couldn't help grinding her teeth secretly.
Dead old woman!
When she has a chance in the future, she must let this old woman drink her footwashing water!
Look how fierce she is!
The old lady took a few deep breaths, barely smoothed out, and finally listened to Zhang Yunhui's words, and her disgusted gaze swept over Xin Rou'er and fell on Xin Nianyan.
"Smoke." She stretched out her hand towards Xin Nianyan.
Xin Nianyan walked over: "Grandmother." β
The old lady patted Xin Nianyan's hand, looked at the slap marks on her face, and the gauze soaked in blood on her forehead, and said distressedly:
"Yan'er, our Xin family is sorry for you, since things have come to this point, and the prince also likes Rou'er, let's fulfill them, and grandmother will choose a better husband for you in the future."
Xin Nianyan smiled bitterly and nodded obediently: "Well, grandmother, Yan'er knows, Yan'er has already decided to fulfill them, and she won't say anything more." β
"That's good, that's good, Yan'er is sensible." The old lady patted Xin Nianyan's hand, full of relief.
Then he couldn't help but glared at Xin Rou'er, and scolded: "Look at your sister, look at you again, you still boast that you have been raised in the boudoir since childhood. β
One sentence reprimanded the two.
Zhang Yunhui was angry and didn't dare to speak, Xin Rou'er admitted her mistake and said: "Rou'er knows her mistake, Rou'er will learn from her sister in the future." β
"Hmph, if you go back today, stay in the yard and copy all the female rings and virtues for me twice, and you won't be allowed to eat if you can't finish copying!" The old lady said again, and then looked at Zhang Yunhui again:
"And you, make such a fuss, don't tell me you don't know, without your instructions, Chunju dares to drug Yan'er? You will go to the ancestral hall for me tonight to kneel, and if you don't kneel for three days, you won't be allowed to come out, and no one is allowed to bring her food, do you hear? β
The last sentence is to Xin Yuanwen.
She was afraid that her son would feel sorry for this fox again, so she didn't kneel for a while and picked people up.
The old lady was angry, where did Xin Yuanwen dare to be disobedient: "Knowing the mother, the son will send someone to watch and not let people bring her food." β
The old lady was satisfied, looked at the dishes on this table, and lost the heart to eat, so she went to rest directly.
β¦β¦
When everyone walked out of the meditation courtyard, Xin Rou'er glared at Xin Nianyan viciously, but because Xin Yuanwen was there, she didn't dare to say anything, so she had to obediently go back to the courtyard to copy the book.
Zhang Yunhui said to Xin Yuanwen: "Master, my mother asked me to train Yan'er before, can I go to the ancestral hall after I go to the ancestral hall?" β
Her voice is soft, more charming and gentle than the previous Xin Rouer, which shows that Xin Rouer really has her true inheritance.
There was also a hint of grievance in her charming and gentle voice, and she wanted Xin Yuanwen to be gracious and not let her go to the ancestral hall.
But Xin Yuanwen was upset at this time, where would he care about her, and after an impatient "um", he strode away.
Xin Nianyan watched Zhang Yunhui deflated, and went back in a good mood.
On the way back to Yanyun Courtyard, Xiao Candle smiled and said, "Miss, the old lady still cares about you." β
Xin Nianyan laughed dryly: "Hehe, is it?" β
