Chapter 42: The West Wind Rises

You Wanden was stunned, but when she painted again, wouldn't she admit that she didn't understand the steps of embroidery? ”

You Huan's eyes were straight, and when she saw that her sister was blowing more and more, she couldn't hold it back, so she pulled her shirt with her hands. But You Wan also has no choice, it is difficult to ride a tiger, and in order to save face, she can only be cheeky and die.

You Huan had an idea, suddenly screamed, pointed to a few cabinets under the incense case and shouted, "What climbed in?"

You Wan got off the donkey and barked: "Sister Yuanxi, did the spider you raised crawl in?"

"What? What spider? Xi'er, when did you raise a spider?" the old lady was most afraid of poisonous insects, so she hurriedly retracted her feet on the couch and ordered a few maids to move out the cabinet.

You Wan took advantage of the situation and said: "Grandma Wei, since you have something to do here, my sister and I won't bother, I'll take this hat back and embroider it, and I'll send it to you when it's embroidered tomorrow." ”

When the old lady heard that there were spiders in the room, she was afraid of hurting her relatives and asked them to be sent back to the room. The old lady pulled Yuan Xi and Yuanyue and said: "It's very messy here, tell the girls to catch it, let's go out first, and save the chaos." ”

"Oh, grandmother, there are spiders somewhere, I scared them to play, and that's good, they've become frightened birds, and the plants and trees are all soldiers. Yuan Xi smiled and held the old lady up: "Your old man can sit down steadily." ”

Yuan Yue took the teacup and offered it to the old lady with both hands: "Grandmother, we are also to blame for this, we shouldn't make such a joke with them." ”

It turned out to be a bluffing joke. The old lady straightened her face: "You two have always been steady, how can you scare people? Otherwise, if it spreads, I think our Wei family is not considerate. ”

Yuan Yue picked up the fruit plate, and the old lady pinched a fresh red fruit with the pits removed and ate it, and said with a smile: "It turned out that the two sisters were playing with the spider, and they joked that we didn't dare to catch it." The third sister had a good face for a while, so she said that she had raised a palm-sized one. The two sisters didn't believe it, so they had to see it with their own eyes, but the third sister couldn't take it, so she lied that she had lost it, which scared the two sisters. ”

"The two girls of the You family are playing with spiders? That's a poisonous insect, you can't play with this. The old lady leaned suspiciously on the chaise longue.

Although it is not the daughter of a wealthy family, it is also a wealthy family in the end, so the young lady from such a family actually took the spider out to play, and she looked like a child in the market, which shows that her education is not enough. The old lady originally wanted to choose one of them and say that she would be his wife to the eldest grandson Chengyong, but when she looked at it like this, she suddenly hesitated.

"Okay, I'm tired too, you little sisters go out to play, I'm going to rest too. After the old lady finished speaking, Ju Xiang moved two soft pillows and put them on the couch, and the little girl came up to pinch her feet.

Yuan Xi put on a cloak and pulled Yuan Yue out of the door, before he smiled and said, "Second sister, let's make a bet, the two maids brought by the two sisters of the You family, guess which of them will be green tomorrow?"

Yuan Yue covered her mouth and smiled, with only the two living treasures of the You family, it is nonsense to want to embroider a hat overnight, and the last person to suffer must be the maid around her.

Yuan Yue said: "Whoever embroiders for Miss will stay up late." ”

The two were talking, only to see Cheng Yong coming head-on. Seeing his sad face, Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Big brother, what's wrong with you?

Cheng Yong saw that it was his two younger sisters, flicked his sleeves, and sighed: "Don't mention it, Fang Cai Yongzi told me that he heard the old lady chatting with Aunt You yesterday, and he wants to talk about family ......affairs."

Cheng Yong was a little embarrassed to speak, and Yuan Xi was also puzzled, thinking about it, Aunt Yu and Aunt You are absolute enemies, how could they agree to marry You's niece as a daughter-in-law? But if it wasn't for Cheng Yong, what would he worry about?

"Say kiss, to whom?" Yuan Xi pulled Cheng Yong, and the three of them entered the corridor and sat down to talk.

Yuan Yue said: "You see the sad appearance of the eldest brother, do you still need to ask? Naturally, it is for the eldest brother." ”

Cheng Yong hated in his heart: "The two girls of the You family are notoriously fierce and spicy, they can't understand poetry and books, and they can't be popular women. I don't know what my grandmother thinks that she wants me to marry such a woman. ”

In the previous life, Cheng Yong died of illness early, and he didn't survive to the age of marrying at all, and Yuan Xi really didn't know where Cheng Yong's true beloved would be, so he could only comfort: "Big brother, grandmother and father can best understand the hearts of their children, and they will never force you to marry a woman you don't love." ”

Yuan Yue sighed, even the eldest son Cheng Yong couldn't decide his life, what would he do for this little girl?

Cheng Yong smashed his fist on the stone pillar with hatred: "If my grandmother forces me, I would rather die." ”

In the previous life, Cheng Yong died early, and his impression of him was just a weak scholar who was sick and troubled, but now it seems that he is so arrogant. Yuan Xi grabbed Cheng Yong's arm and comforted: "Big brother, don't think about it too much, after all, you haven't broken the window paper yet." Yuko just listened casually, what if he took it out of context?"

Yuan Yue shook her head, she believed in this, she lived in the old lady's room, not to mention that she knew everything, and she always heard some rumors. Coupled with what Yuko said, this confirmed her conjecture even more.

Yuan Yue frowned: "When I recall it like this, my grandmother seems to mean this." ”

"You is ruthless, how good can the girl of the You family be?" Cheng Yong pinched his wrist: "Grandmother, have you forgotten, who poisoned my medicine, who framed you in every possible way, and who is the real murderer who killed Hua Sui." ”

In fact, the old lady also has her own opinions, although the You family is quite scheming, but these two girls are also playful, and they don't think they will get involved in those conflicts of interest. Cheng Yong and You have always been at odds, if Cheng Yong marries the girl of the You family, he can transfer most of the support of the You family to Cheng Yong's side, and indirectly empty the power of the You family. Besides, with this girl as the middleman, it is not easy for You Shi to poison his niece and son-in-law again, right?

Yuan Yue said: "This family business is a high climb for the You family, and their family must be happy." I think, the eldest brother should go to his grandmother and get straight to the point?"

"That's not going to work, it's reckless to refuse too early. Cheng Yong turned his back and sighed: "When the time comes, grandmother will definitely be able to say that the girl of the You family is a hundred and a thousand, and you are speechless when you say it, won't you be passive at that time?"

If Cheng Yong marries a girl from the You family, he will be called passive! Yuan Xi made a calculation in his heart, if the girl of the You family marries Cheng Yong, she will undoubtedly become a sharp knife of the You family, cutting off herself and Aunt Yu. The girl of the You family is like an eagle dog used for surveillance, and any meeting between herself and Aunt Yu will be exposed to her surveillance.

It's going to be a tricky thing.

Won-hee gradually clenched her handkerchief, she must not let this happen, whether it is for Cheng Yong or for herself.

Now there is already a woman surnamed You in the Wei Mansion, and there must not be a second one. Although she has gradually gained a firm foothold in the Wei family, Aunt You's desire to win the heir has never stopped, and she sent the girl from the You family to the Wei Mansion, isn't she just installing her cronies?

"Just relying on her girl from the You family, she also wants to be the eldest and youngest grandmother of our Wei Mansion, which is simply a fool's dream. Yuan Xi made up his mind and said: "Big brother, don't say that you don't agree with this matter, even I, who is a sister, don't agree." ”

"But grandmother's ......"

Yuan Xi sneered: "Grandmother's side is easy to handle." The You family sisters are the most unruly and polite, in front of the elders, they are just pretending to be decent. However, people can pretend for a while, but they can't pretend for a lifetime. All we have to do is remove their fig leaf, and Grandmother will naturally dispel this idea. ”

"The third sister is right," Yuan Yue helped Cheng Yong: "Big brother, grandmother values the conduct of her children and grandchildren the most, as long as grandmother sees the true face of the You family sisters, even if you want to marry, grandmother will not agree." ”

"Fig leaf?" Cheng Yong frowned: "What do the two sisters mean, let them make a fool of themselves in public?"

Yuan Yue and Yuan Xi looked at each other and smiled: "The two sisters are an embroidered pillow after all. At this point, I probably thought of going with my third sister, and let them be rude in public during the New Year's dinner. In this way, what kind of face does the You family have to mention this family business?"

Yuan Xi said: "Big brother, don't worry, since my second sister and I have intervened in this matter, we will definitely handle it, and we will never let my eldest brother regret it in his life." ”

Cheng Yong was overjoyed. Sure enough, women still have to be dealt with by women, Cheng Yong took two steps back and bowed: "Then please leave this matter to the two sisters." ”

Thin snow gradually drifted in the sky, and Xiang'er sent a hand stove to Yuanyue.

Yuan Xi smiled: "It's still Xiang'er who is careful." ”

A trace of sweet shame appeared on Xiang'er's face, and he said: "Young master, two young ladies, the porter just said that the fourth girl's carriage and horse are back." ”

"Fourth sister is back?" Cheng Yong stood up and said, "Then I'll go to meet her." ”

Xiang'er said: "It's not the fourth girl, it's the fourth girl's carriage and horse luggage that came back first." I heard that the four girls occasionally felt a cold, and they were afraid that the fatigue of the carriage and horses would aggravate their condition, and they might not come back in a few days. ”

Yuan Yue snorted disdainfully: "I have lived in the Buddhist temple for so long, and I still have this face of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages." ”

"What?" said Yuan Hee.

"I asked my mother to tell her that I would kowtow to you in front of everyone at the New Year's dinner. No, she was afraid of losing face, and wanted to deliberately go home after the New Year's dinner! I don't know which inn she is in now. When Yuan Yue mentioned her fourth sister, she inevitably had a look of hatred for iron and steel.

"Second sister, why bother? The fourth sister is this kind of character, it's okay. You ask Aunt Zheng to bring her a letter, just say that I don't have to make amends for what I said, and tell her to hurry home for the New Year. "For Yuan Jie, Yuan Xi can only maintain a superficial harmony, if it is sincere, I am afraid that he will not be able to get even a point.

Yuan Yue said sarcastically: "I really don't know which son will be lucky enough to marry her in the future." ”
