Chapter 33 Marriage (2)

The next day, Yuxi knew that Changping Hou Shizi's wife, Xuanshi, had come to marry her concubine Zhou Lei. Zhou Lei is a concubine, and Ruyu is a concubine daughter, and they are a good match in terms of status.

Yuxi knew that the marriage would not work out, so she didn't pay much attention to it. Sure enough, Qiu Shi declined the marriage, the reason was very simple, Zhou Lei was too helpless. Although Yuru is a concubine, she is the eldest daughter of a concubine, and she has a good reputation outside, so it's a pity to match Zhou Lei. This is secondly, the main reason is that forming this family relationship is of no benefit to the Duke's Mansion.

What Yuxi didn't expect was that Qiu Shi actually told her about Han Jianye's marriage, and asked Yuxi a question: "Yuxi, what do you think of Miss Xinrong?"

Yuxi didn't react at first, and said with a smile: "Sister Xinrong is very good! What's the matter, auntie?" Yuxi has been busy for the past few years, and has no free time to meet and chat with Zhou Shiya and Duan Xinrong. My friendship is maintained by writing letters. However, the three share the same interests, and although they don't meet often, the relationship is still very good.

Qiu Shi asked: "What do you think, how about telling Miss Xin Rong to your second brother?"

Yuxi opened her eyes wide, and asked, "Auntie invited someone to the Duan's house to say goodbye? What did the Duan's say?" Xin Rong has known her for several years and knows everything. It would be great if she could marry Han Jianye. But Yuxi never thought of this. It's not that Yuxi thinks that Han Jianye is not good enough for Duan Xinrong, but that the Duan family is a scholarly family.

The Duan family was not so noble as to say that they would not associate with Xungui, nor would they say that they would not marry their daughter into Xungui's family. If so, nothing would happen to Jiang Jing. It's just that scholars don't like martial artists who play with knives and guns, but Han Jianye can't study well so he has to play with knives and swords.

Qiu shook her head and said: "No, I think that Miss Xin Rong is very good in all aspects, and I want to ask someone to test her reputation in front of Mrs. Duan." Before getting married, everyone will talk about it first, and only after everyone has agreed in private will they invite a matchmaker It was a door-to-door visit, so Qiu wanted to see the Duan family's attitude first.

Yuxi felt that the marriage was very close. First, Han Jianye was not a student and did not meet the requirements of the Duan family. Second, everyone in the capital knew that her uncle favored his concubine's room. The Duan family is a very well-behaved family. From Yuxi's point of view, this matter is likely to be impossible.

Yuxi didn't bite her to death, but said: "Auntie, Sister Xin Rong is very good, and I also hope she can be my second sister-in-law. It's just that the Duan family is a scholar, and they are also planning to find a student for Sister Xin Rong. .”

Qiu's also has concerns about this, so she specifically talked to Yu Xi about it.

Yuxi said: "Auntie, my second brother is such a good person that he won't have to worry about not being able to find his sister-in-law." Han Jianye has a straightforward temper and doesn't have so many twists and turns. Yuxi really thinks that a woman who marries Han Jianye will have a very happy life.

Qiu Shi was still reluctant to give up, and finally found someone who was good in every aspect, and it was not Qiu Shi's temperament to ask her to give up without asking.

How could Yuxi fail to see what Qiu Shi was thinking, and she stopped pouring cold water on Qiu Shi, she just said: "Auntie, I think you should ask your eldest brother about the second brother's marriage! The eldest brother walks outside and socializes more, you know There are more people." It is said that the eldest brother is like a father, and although the eldest brother is only two years older than the second brother, he is much better than the second brother in dealing with people.

When Qiu heard this, dissatisfaction appeared on his face: "Your elder brother has poor eyesight."

After hearing this, Yuxi knew that the elder brother was satisfied with the person who had not caught the eldest aunt's eyes: "Whose girl did the elder brother mention to the aunt?"

Qiu hesitated for a while, but finally said to Yuxi: "Your elder brother said that the girl from the Mao family is pretty good. I took a chance to meet the girl from the Mao family. The girl looks like a hemp stick, and she looks worried that the wind will blow her away." Now that you are gone, how will you bear the burden of raising children and taking care of the housework in the future." The Mao family that Qiu mentioned was the second daughter of the left servant of the Ministry of Officials. The family background is very good, but the second girl of the Mao family is slender. Qiu Shi likes the plump type. According to Qiu Shi, this kind of woman is easy to bear, and a girl with a body like a stick will definitely not be able to fall into Qiu Shi's eyes.

Yuxi was embarrassed: "Then Auntie will take a good look at each other."

Qiu took Yu Xi's hand,

He said earnestly, "Yuxi, a woman's figure should be slim, but she's too thin." There is basically a standard for choosing a daughter-in-law in a rich family, and Qiu's choice of daughter-in-law is in this standard.

Yuxi smiled and said: "Auntie, it's not like you don't know how much I eat." The girl only eats one bowl for a meal, and Yuxi wants two bowls for each meal. In addition, she also eats fruit snacks. It is also because of this that Yuxi's height is now half a head taller than in her previous life, and Yuxi is very satisfied with this.

At this time, Mrs. Ye came over. Yu Xi immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Hi, sister-in-law." Ye Shi was very kind to Yu Xi and wanted to win over her, but Yu Xi has always been neither far nor near to her, this is not only that Ye Shi is confused , even Qiu Shi is also very strange!

Mrs. Ye came over to talk to Mrs. Qiu about some things in the mansion. Yuxi would avoid this kind of thing before, and this time it is the same, ready to walk away.

But Qiu took her hand and said with a smile: "Next year you will learn how to be a housekeeper from your sister-in-law, just listen to it now."

Yuxi has one advantage, if she doesn't want to learn, she will learn it seriously. After hearing what Qiu Shi said, she listened carefully to the housework these two people talked about, just like listening to Mr. Song's lectures.

There are a lot of things to do during the Chinese New Year, Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Qiu finished discussing and went out again. Looking at Ye's background, Qiu sighed slightly. Mrs. Ye is good in everything, the only bad thing is that she has been married for more than two years and there is no news from her stomach, so Mrs. Qiu is almost dying of worry.

Although Qiu Shi always treats Yuxi as an adult and will tell her many things, she is not easy to speak about such things. It can't be said that the daughter-in-law can't give birth, so what will happen to her.

Every Chinese New Year would make new clothes, and Yuxi got six new clothes just for Chinese New Year. Although Rose Garden is very simple, Yuxi's food and clothing are no worse than others.

At the end of the twelfth lunar month, the mansion became more and more busy. At this time, Yu Ru, Yu Jing and Yu Chen all helped Mrs. Ye with the housework.

Ku Fu couldn't help muttering a few words: "It would be great if the girl also learns." Butler director is something that every girl must learn, the sooner the better.

Yuxi smiled and said: "My aunt sees that I am in good health and doesn't want me to work hard. She said that the first month of the new year will come out, so she will let me and my sister-in-law learn how to be a housekeeper."

Kufu breathed a sigh of relief, afraid that the eldest lady would forget her daughter.

Seeing Ku Fu's appearance, Zi Su laughed a little and said, "The eldest madam loves the girl so much, she helps the girl think through everything, why worry about it!"

The bitter woman is busy begging for mercy.

The room was full of joy, but a discordant voice sounded: "Girl, Mother Chen from the Third Lady's Courtyard is here." The people in the Biteng Courtyard are the most unwelcome ones in the Rose Courtyard.

Mother Chen invited Yuxi to Biteng Courtyard.

Since she got sick last time, Yuxi only went to Biteng Courtyard with Yuchen on the first day of the fifteenth day to pay her respects, and did not pass the rest of the time. Seeing Mother Chen, Yuxi asked lightly, "What does mother want from me?"

Mother Chen said respectfully: "The Chinese New Year is approaching, Madam is going to buy some extra jewelry for the girls, so I invite the girls to come over." Mother Chen was very afraid of Yu Xi, she had no choice but her master kept eating on this girl one after another. A dark loss.

Yuxi was punished by Han Jingyan, and she didn't do unnecessary things, but she made people publicize Qiu Yanfu's affairs in Pingqinghou's mansion. The last time the cousin met the second young master, it was a coincidence, but this time in Pingqinghou's mansion, it was not even a coincidence. In addition, the wife and grandma didn't stop it. The servants of the Duke's mansion tried their best to arrange it Versions are available.

When Mrs. Wu heard the rumors, she almost went mad. She punished the two servants on the spot, and went to Mrs. Qiu, demanding that Mrs. Qiu severely punish the servant who chewed his tongue. Shi Yitong. Wu Shi was so angry that his face was contorted.

Not only Wu and Qiu Yanfu thought it was Yuxi's revenge, but even Chen's mother thought so. But they were just guessing and couldn't find evidence. Even if this matter came up to the master, they would not be able to stand up, so they could only suffer from being dumb.

Yuxi's expression was very calm, and she said: "Since my mother is interested, I will go there later." No matter how miserable Wu is, she is also an elder, and she cannot avoid it. Cough, it's really frustrating to have such a person swaying in front of you all the time. But it is not so difficult to move the Wu family away. The Wu family has two sons, which is equivalent to a gold medal for avoiding death. Moreover, Yuxi is not willing to confront the Wu family directly, because of the pressure of filial piety, even if she plots against the Wu family, the result will definitely be killing one thousand enemies and injuring eight hundred. Wu Shi, it's not worth it for her to do this.

Mrs. Chen returned to Biteng Courtyard and replied to Mrs. Wu: "Ma'am, Miss Three and Miss Four will be here soon."

With a cold face, Wu Shi sent someone to invite them to come and asked her to wait. No one knew Wu's aggrieved, she was a stepmother, she was about to get sick.

It's normal for the Wu family to be aggrieved. It's difficult for the stepmother, but it's even more difficult for the stepmother. Many stepmothers can suppress the children left by their predecessors because of three things, one is money, the other is fame, and the third is marriage.

Money, Yuchen and Yuxi have assets in their hands, and they are financially independent, so it is absolutely impossible to cut food and clothing expenses. As for the reputation, although the Wu family occupies the title of stepmother, there is a big Buddha, Mrs. Han, on top of her. How can the old lady let the Wu family ruin Yuxi's reputation. As for the marriage, Yuchen and Yuxi are both excellent, they are an important resource for future marriages, how could Mrs. Han and Han Jingyan let her intervene. Without these three bargaining chips, how could the Wu family hold back Yuchen and Yuxi. Of course, this is also the real reason why Yu Xi doesn't take Wu Shi seriously.

After a while, the servant girl said outside: "Madam, Miss San and Miss Four are here."

Wu tried his best to put a smile on his face. In the past, in Hebei, because her husband was born in the Duke's Mansion and his official position was high, even Shangfeng's wife treated her kindly. But now that she was back in the capital, she was more angry than in previous decades.

Yuchen and Yuxi entered the room together, and they saluted Wu Shi together. No matter how unwilling Wu Shi was, she would not dare to do anything to the two of them. Regardless of the previous rumors, even the old lady didn't have a good look at her.

After a while, Yu Rong and Qiu Yanfu also came over. When Qiu Yanfu saw Yu Xi, she immediately lowered her head, but soon she raised her head again, and greeted the two of them with a smile.

Yuxi snorted coldly, ignored Qiu Yanfu, and didn't save Qiu Yanfu any face. As for Yuchen, he just nodded his head as a greeting, and then ignored Qiu Yanfu's enthusiasm. With what happened before, Yuchen also hated Qiu Yanfu extremely.

Qiu Yanfu hated Yu Xi very much. The reputation of a girl's family is so important, but now her reputation has been completely ruined by Yuxi. Qiu Yanfu wanted to take revenge, but unfortunately she was powerless. Even the Wu family can't do anything to Yuxi, let alone her cousin who lives here. She is rich, but no matter how rich she is, she can't spend it like water, and there are many things in the Duke's Mansion that cannot be done with money.

Yuxi didn't pay attention to Qiu Yanfu at all, and said to Wu: "Mother said to buy some jewelry for us, I don't know whether to order it or choose it directly?"

Wu said with a smile: "Someone will send you jewelry later, you can pick out the ones you like."

Yuxi asked again: "Is it from Ruyi Pavilion?" Ruyi Pavilion is the largest and best jewelry store in the capital, and all the jewelry there are high-quality goods.

Wu Shi originally planned to spend money to gain fame for himself, but he didn't expect to be disgusted by him, and he couldn't let go of his bad breath.

It didn't take long for the jewelry giver to arrive. The rich families let the people from the merchants bring things to the house to choose at will. Generally, going shopping on the street is to relax.

Many of the jewelry Yuchen wears are handicrafts in the palace, and some of them are custom-made by Ruyi Pavilion. Yuchen doesn't care about the jewelry this time. But Yuchen is different from Yuxi, she is more restrained and cares about Erfang's reputation, so she didn't say anything bad, but just chose two Zhuchai symbolically.

No matter how much Yu Xi hates the Wu family, she will not lose her identity in front of outsiders. She picked out a hairpin and a hairpin, all of which were inlaid with precious stones. This is also Yuxi's little problem, she just likes precious stones and gold.

Wu Shi was a little surprised, she thought that Yuxi would pick up a lot of jewelry and take the opportunity to let her bleed! I didn't expect to be obedient this time.

Seeing this, Qiu Yanfu smiled and said: "My cousin has really sharp eyes, and she picked the best one at a glance." Qiu Yanfu was mocking Yuxi for being rich, and she was looking for money.

Yuxi didn't seem to understand Qiu Yanfu's words, and said with a smile: "My aunt will order a set of hair masks for me in Ruyi Pavilion every year and festival. There are so many that I can't wear them all. This time it is also my mother's wish. Good Buddha. However, it may be that I have seen too many good things, and my eyesight has been trained, so I just picked the best one randomly."

The lady in the jewelry shop praised: "The girl's eyesight is excellent."

Yuxi glanced at the hairpin in her hand, and smiled lightly: "So-so!" I don't know whether she is referring to her so-so eyesight or the so-so hairpin in her hand. But after Yuxi finished speaking, she handed the hairpin in her hand to Kufu, without even taking another look.

Yuchen shook his head helplessly.

Seeing Yu Xi like this, Wu Shi almost spewed out a mouthful of old blood. She really felt that she was spending money to make a fuss.
