Chapter 20: You Are the Ones Who Died

Yuan Xi sat down slowly, and smiled at Cheng Yong: "Big brother, I originally wanted to rest, but suddenly remembered that Ruan Er and Liu Tianbao told me a few days ago that neither of them wanted to do it anymore and wanted to change careers, so didn't I rush to fulfill them?"

Cheng Yong naturally didn't understand, Liu Tianbao and Ruan Er both seemed to have fried Mao'er's chickens, and they shouted in unison: "Third Miss, where did you listen, who said we didn't want to do it?"

Yuan Xi took the teacup, skimmed the tea leaves, and smiled indifferently: "Oh, I remembered wrong?"

Liu Tianbao and Ruan Er nodded frequently: "Yes, yes, you must have misremembered." ”

Yuan Xi took a sip of tea and said, "That's not right, right? I remember I said that I don't raise idlers." Now, one of you pretends not to sing, and the other pretends not to hear, are you hiding it? My eldest brother doesn't care about you because he is sympathetic to you, and you are so foolish when I am my eldest brother?"

Liu Tianbao and Ruan Er were both so choked that they couldn't speak, they were silent for a moment, and they hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Cheng Yong and begging for mercy. Cheng Yong looked at Yuan Xi blankly, not sure what was going on. Yuan Xi sneered: "Don't beg my eldest brother, my eldest brother is the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva, a good person who has cultivated in the tenth generation, as soon as you ask him, he will forgive you." However, as soon as my eldest brother comes out of this door, I still can't spare you. ”

Yuan Xi said this very implicitly, Liu Tianbao and Ruan Er are also the best among the human spirits, so they can naturally understand Yuan Xi's hints. They all twitched their mouths at Cheng Yong, counting each other, Cheng Yong saw that they were really embarrassed, so he said: "Okay, okay, third sister, you see that they are also sincerely repentant, I don't blame them, you just spare them." ”

Yuan Xi glanced at Cheng Yong gently, and said sharply to Liu Tianbao and Ruan Er: "You two are amazing, even if I am sick, I will be raised in this store." Having said that, if you dare to do this kind of trick again in the future, there will be no future. ”

Cheng Yong saw that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he wanted to talk about something else: "Are you hurt better? I saw the fourth sister walking outside your hospital in the morning, but she went to see you?"

Yuan Xi shook his head and glanced at Ling'er. Ling'er also had doubts on her face: "I got up in the morning to deliver something to the old lady, and I also saw the fourth girl, but she didn't come to us, the direction she went to was the eldest lady's residence, you must have remembered it wrong." ”

"Yes? Maybe I was wrong. I thought you were reconciled. Cheng Yong took a sip of tea, the tea was already slightly cold, and the entrance was bitter and astringent. Cheng Yong frowned and put down the teacup.

Yuan Jie hadn't even seen a figure since yesterday, and as soon as she heard some news, she went to Aunt You's room. Yuan Xi was a little unhappy in his heart, but it was not difficult to understand, after all, not everyone can understand your kindness and concessions. What's more, with Yuanjie's character, even if she knows that she is wrong, she will not be the first to admit her mistake. Yuan Xi beckoned and asked Liu Tianbao to take the account book, and stopped thinking about Yuan Jie.

The matter is so big, Yuan Jie doesn't know how to end it, after all, she is not the eldest daughter or the concubine, and she has no special status, and she doesn't need to be taboo about anything on the scene. Although his father's wife is deceased, and the three aunts in the family are equal, in fact, his father is not a bowl of water. You and Yu both have sons, while her mother only has two unfavored daughters. Whether the son is expensive by the mother or the mother is expensive by the son, she can't stand it.

In the past, You treated herself well, but since the incident with Hua Sui, You didn't care much about her. The eldest sister who used to speak well to herself is now reluctant to talk to herself. Now that she has offended Yuan Xi again, she is a concubine, the heart and liver of the old lady, and she is in the limelight. For a while, he really became an isolated and helpless master.

"Fourth Miss, why don't you go back first, the eldest lady and her aunt will go to the Hidden Plum Nunnery to burn incense for the third girl, and they won't be able to come back until dinner." The little girl in Yuanjia's room said lightly.

Yuan Jie shook her head: "I'll just sit here and wait." ”

The little girls looked at each other, dispersed, and went about their own business. Although the slave does not deceive the master, but the matter of his master being fined monthly money, the subordinate also knows some inside information, so he does not wait to see Yuan Jie. Yuan Jie sat in Yuanjia's room all day, and the little girls only gave a piece of incense. When Yuan Jia returned, Yuan Jie was already hungry.

Yuan Jia looked half angry: "Didn't you tell me not to keep guests? Why didn't you listen? It's too late now, you went back to the fourth girl, just say I'm tired, let's talk about it tomorrow if you have something." ”

The little girl was also aggrieved: "Miss, that's what the slaves and maids said." The slaves and maids were afraid that she would not leave, and the snacks were not served. But the four girls are depressed, they don't eat or drink, and they have to wait for you to come back. The slaves are helpless, aren't they?"

You Shi took off his coat and sat by the fireplace to roast the fire: "That's it, since she is in a hurry to see you, you can go and see what she has to say." ”

Yuan Jia also sat down by the fire: "I'm not going, she's a brainless person, what do I say when I see her? Yesterday he made his father angry, and today he came to recruit us again." It seems that we also have to learn from the third sister and give her a little face, so that she will know who can be provoked and who cannot be provoked. ”

You Shi sneered and took the teacup: "Soak in us every day, eat and eat, play and play, is it all hers? Now when it's time for her to contribute, it's too cheap for us to kick her away." This man, if he is greedy anywhere, he will die somewhere, and this statement is absolutely not wrong. ”

Yuan Jia slowly came back to his senses, carefully pondering You Shi's words: "You mean to say that let Yuan Jie ...... for us"

You Shi stretched out a soft finger and pressed Yuanjia's lips, signaling her to stop talking. took Yuan Jia's hand: "Let's go, let's take a look." ”

As soon as You Shi and Yuan Jia entered the door, Yuan Jie cried out as if she had suddenly returned her soul. You Shi and Yuan Jia glanced at each other, and invariably took out their handkerchiefs to wipe away Yuan Jie's tears. You Shi said with a smile: "What happened, I cried so sadly"

"Auntie, what should I do, what should I do? Wei Yuanxi was injured, and now my father must hate me to death. Yuan Jie was so forgetful of crying that she made You Shi and Yuan Jia cry.

They heard about Yuanxi's injury, and they went to pray for Yuanxi during the day. This matter has nothing to do with You Shiben, Yuan Jie has never felt guilty about the last time he was punished for the month, but now he came to find a way out for himself.

You Shi's face was not very good-looking, but he still reluctantly squeezed out a little smile: "Why don't you go and say a few soft words to your father, and this matter will be over." ”

Yuan Jie abruptly stopped crying, revealing a little perseverance: "I don't, I'm just a person who can't speak softly, auntie, you also know." ”

Yuan Jia pursed her lips secretly, saying this as if she had a backbone. To put it bluntly, aren't people stupid and hypocritical? Yuan Jia was already impatient between his words, and said perfunctorily: "Then you go to apologize to the third sister, and thank her for saving your life by the way." ”

Yuan Jie nodded, and asked again: "This is a solution, but how can I tell her?"

You Shi turned around, used a small wax hairpin to pick up the lantern flowers, and said in his heart, how can there be such a stupid thing in this world? Yuan Jia said: "You just tell her directly, thank her for taking a kick for you, otherwise you will be the one who is injured." Wouldn't you say such a simple thing?"

Yuan Jie thought thoughtfully: "Will I just go into the house and tell her directly? Wouldn't it be too embarrassing?"

Yuan Jia was already extremely impatient, and he couldn't wait to give an eviction order immediately: "Then you give her something first, and then tell her." ”

Yuan Jie was interested, and finally got to the point, and suddenly called You Shi: "Auntie, what do you say I should give her something?" I feel that my things are not very suitable. ”

This is very clear, my things are not suitable to give away, do you have anything to give, give me one or two pieces to make up the number? You Shi's heart trembled, and his hand gradually exerted force, holding the iron hairpin that picked up the lantern flower tightly. But after all, You Shi is You Shi, and he can't put his anger on his face, so he asked without changing his face: "Then you see, is there anything suitable here for my aunt?"

It stands to reason that when normal people heard this, they felt embarrassed and refused again and again, but Yuan Jie's mind was different from ordinary people, and the words she said were even more extraordinary: "What does my aunt have?" I'll take a look at it first, and then pick one to give her." ”

Yuan Jia stood up angrily, suppressed by You Shi's look. You Shi said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, you go to your sister's room and pick out your sister's jewelry and give it to her." ”

Yuan Jia already hated Yuan Xi so much that her teeth itched, and now because Yuan Jie gave her jewelry to Yuan Xi, how could she bear this breath. But You Shi still suppressed her anger, pulled Yuan Jie and said with a smile: "Forget it, it's late at night, wait for me to ask the girl to pick up your sister's things, pick a few good ones, and send them to you tomorrow." ”

Sending Yuan Jie away, Yuan Jia pointed to the door with hatred, and said angrily: "Mother, why are you giving her face like this, what kind of thing is she?!

You Shi also gritted his teeth and gently stroked Yuan Jia's face: "Jia'er, my mother just wants you to know that you can never lose, once you lose, even a rotten person like Yuan Jie will ride on your head as a prestige." Mother also wants you to remember that only by enduring humiliation can you bear the weight, didn't Yuan Xi send us medicine to mock us? We also let Yuan Jie add to her blockage, isn't her injury the most taboo to be angry? You go to Zhao's mother's room now and pick out something decent. ”

Yuan Xi's hurt is in his heart, and now he is taking some medicine to invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis. If you make a big fuss, I'm afraid it will hurt even more. Yuan Jia was stunned and said with a smile: "I understand, mother, what do you mean...... I'm going to look for jewelry. ”
