Chapter 21 Temptation (4)
As soon as she returned to the Rose Garden, Yuxi immediately waved away the maids around her, and stayed alone in the study. Just now, he forcibly suppressed himself, but now there is no one in the room and there is no need to pretend anymore.
Yuxi took a deep breath, then poured water into the inkstone, picked up the graphite and grinded it slowly. After grinding, dip a brush in ink and write a big static character.
It's a pity that this time Yuxi is doomed to fail, she can't calm down, as long as she thinks of Jiang Hongjin's eyes looking at Yuchen, she can't calm down.
Kufu said outside: "Girl, is the tea ready?" Yuxi doesn't drink green tea, so the tea made for her is longan, red dates and wolfberry tea.
Yu Xi took a deep breath, and then said lightly: "Come in!"
Although Ku Fu has served Yu Xi personally for only two years, she has also been in Rose Garden for five years. Although her patriarch looks calm, she can see that Yu Xi is angry. Kufu asked carefully: "Girl, what's wrong with you?" Could it be that you were wronged in the Princess Mansion?
Yuxi didn't want to talk, so she said, "Go out, I want to be alone for a while."
Ku Fu was not at ease, but she didn't dare to disobey Yu Xi's words, so she could only go out. Turning around at the door, seeing Yu Xi's gloomy expression gave her heart a chill, and walked out in two steps. But she didn't dare to go away, so she waited at the door.
"Kang Dang..." After a burst of noise, the room fell silent again.
Ku Fu's heart was about to jump out, and she boldly asked, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" It was because Yu Xi had a lot of prestige, otherwise Ku Fu would have rushed in.
Yuxi just couldn't bear the anger in her heart before she smashed the cup on the ground, now she has regained her sense: "Come in."
Kufu looked at the tea dripping down the wall, with these wolfberries still on it, and a pile of broken teacups on the ground. Kufu was a little at a loss, she had been serving the girl for several years, and this was the first time she saw the girl smashing things. I don't know how much the Lord has been wronged in the princess mansion to make her so angry.
Yu Xi said with a cold face: "Clean up quickly. When someone asks, just say that I accidentally broke the cup."
Ku Fu didn't dare to say more, she bowed her head in response, and then cleaned up the debris and prepared to take it out for disposal.
Yuxi said: "Don't say a word to anyone about today's matter." She didn't want her abnormality to be known.
Ku Fu nodded quickly, and said: "Don't worry, girl, I won't tell anyone." Originally, Ku Fu wanted to find out what wronged her master had suffered in the princess mansion later.
Yuxi's words made her dispel this idea.
Yu Xi waved her hand to let Ku Fu go down, and then said to herself: "If Mammy is here, I will definitely say that I can't hold back anymore." At this time, Yu Xi missed Mammy Quan very much. If Mammy Quan was by her side, she wouldn't be so helpless. It's a pity that Mammy Quan insisted on going back to her hometown to take care of her, so she couldn't say that Mammy would stay.
Zi Su came back from the outside and heard that Yu Xi accidentally broke a teacup. Zisu's heart skipped a beat, her girl has always acted steadily, not the kind of impatient person. In addition, her master loves things very much, and more importantly, the house is covered with thick carpets, so how could it be possible to break the cup. Zi Su looked for Ku Fu and asked, "What's wrong with you today, Miss?"
Ku Fu killed Yu Xi because she accidentally fell on the bed: "Sister Zisu, the girl was really careless. If you don't believe me, you can ask the girl yourself later?"
Zi Su was dubious.
Yu Xi came out from the study, saw Ku Fu, and asked, "Is the water ready?" She said she wanted to take a bath when she came back just now.
Ku Fu nodded hurriedly: "It's ready, I'll have someone carry the water to the clean room now." Seeing the girl's calm expression, Ku Fu really felt that the scene just now was her illusion.
After Yuxi took a bath and changed her clothes, she climbed onto the bed and went to sleep.
Yuxi lay on the bed thinking about things, thinking about her elders. Jiang Hongjin of the previous generation came to ask her to marry him after winning the number one prize. At that time, someone told her that Hongjin married her to establish a relationship with the ten emperors, but she was also the younger sister of the ten emperors, and marrying her was tantamount to becoming a brother-in-law with the ten emperors, and she would have a relationship with the ten emperors in the future.
In fact, it is true. After Jiang Hongjin married her, he took refuge in the ten emperors, and finally became the most beneficial arm of the ten emperors.
Thinking of Jiang Hongjin's obsessed look at Yuchen just now, she had a vague guess in her heart that Jiang Hongjin might not marry her because of the Ten Emperors, but because of Yuchen. If her guess was correct, Jiang Hongjin would have ruined her life because of his obsession, and finally left her with no bones left. Thinking of this, Yu Xi tightly grasped the brocade quilt with both hands, and the brocade quilt was deformed by her grasp.
At this moment, Yuxi heard someone coming. The rose courtyard is small, and the voices in the courtyard are a little louder, and she can hear it in the bedroom.
Shi Qin sent the mending over, and when Yu Xi fell asleep, her voice became quieter. Shi Qin didn't stay any longer, she put down her things and said a few words before going back. After a while, she told about Yuxi's falling asleep: "Maybe the fourth girl was really tired. She went back to the Rose Garden to wash and fell asleep."
Yuchen smiled and said: "Don't you think she's just pretending?" If Yuxi was pretending, how could she not see it.
Shi Qin shook his head and said: "No, I'm just a little strange. Miss Si plays chess with you all the time, it's nothing. Why are you so tired this time?"
The smile on Yuchen's face faded immediately: "How can this be the same? Yuxi usually plays chess with me just to pass the time, but today she tried her best."
Shi Qin seems to understand but not understand.
When Ku Fu heard Yu Xi calling her, she hurriedly ordered the little maid to fetch water, and she went forward to tidy up her clothes with Yu Xi: "Girl, when the girl fell asleep just now, the old lady sent someone to tell you to wait for you to wake up." Go to the Upper Court." The old lady and Qiu Shi were worried that Yu Xi was ill, so they specially sent someone over to inquire.
Yu Xi hummed and asked, "Did you make dinner?"
Ku Fu shook her head and said: "No, the old lady said to let the girl go to the upper courtyard for dinner." Seeing that there was no fluctuation on Yuxi's face, Ku Fu continued: "Just now, the girl sent someone to send donkey-hide gelatin and wild ginseng to make up for it."
Yuxi said softly: "Register and store." Although it is said that medicine supplements are not as good as food supplements, taking some supplements occasionally is of great benefit to the body. Under Yuchen's favor, Yuxi has also eaten a lot of good things in recent years.
Mai Dong brought a set of purplish red clothes, and Zi Su brought a decorative box.
Yuxi shook her head and said: "This color is deep, take that set of sapphire blue peony embroidered gold brocade clothes, I will wear that set. Put the ornaments back, just two pearl flowers on the hairpin. You don't need it at home. Dressed so brightly."
Zisu said: "Girl, that set of clothes is new, you can wear them next time when you go out for a visit!" This set of sapphire blue dress.
Yu Xi said nonchalantly: "Isn't the clothes made for me to wear? Next time I go out without clothes, I'll just make them. There are still a few good horses in the warehouse." She doesn't look very good. It became more and more listless. She didn't want the old lady and Mrs. Wu to see her listless. Of course, these are all Yuxi told the girl who set up the change. As for her real thoughts, only Yuxi herself knows.
Dong Mai waited for Yuxi to go out, and made up the bed. But looking at the crumpled and shapeless brocade quilt, I was very surprised. It took so much effort to crumpled the brocade quilt like this! Girl, what's the matter? Such a big anger.
When we arrived at the Upper Court, the old lady looked at Yuxi, nodded and said: "You look pretty good. Your sister told me what happened today, and she performed very well." Being able to tie with Yu Xiyu, who is both talented and talented in the capital, is enough to show that Yuxi's chess skills are extraordinary.
Yuxi has never been shy in front of the old lady. To be exact, Yuxi has always been very humble, and never complacent because of her good performance.
The old lady is very satisfied with Yu Xi's lack of arrogance or impetuosity.
Cuiyu came in and said, "Old madam, young lady, fourth young lady, the dinner is ready, you can eat now."
Yu Xi followed the old lady to the dining hall, and saw Mrs. Wu was arranging the bowls and chopsticks. Yuxi blinked her eyes, she didn't expect that one day she would be able to be served by Mrs. Wu. Although she was under the favor of the old lady, it still made Yu Xi feel relieved. Of course, it's one thing to be happy in the heart, but you can't show it on the face, and instead offer to help.
The old lady would not really let Mrs. Wu serve the two juniors, so she waved her hand and said to Mrs. Wu, "You go down first!"
Wu Shi walked out calmly, and when he got out of the dining hall, Wu Shi's face was covered with dark clouds. Everyone is the junior serving the elders, but when it comes to her, everyone is lost.
Yu Xi's lunch at the Princess Mansion was not very good, and she spent a lot of energy, so she was already hungry. But even so, she didn't dare to eat more in the upper room, and she was only seven percent full.
When the group finished their meals, when they came out, Yu Xi saw Mrs. Wu standing outside waiting. Yuxi called out respectfully: "Mother." The etiquette of Yuxi and Yuchen is absolutely impeccable.
No matter how much Wu shi hated in his heart, he didn't dare to show it in front of the old lady. In the past, when Mrs. Wu heard others say that her stepmother was embarrassing, she would scoff at it. Now she really knows that her stepmother is in trouble.
Yu Xi looked at Wu's obedience like a kitten in front of the old lady, and she admired her in her heart. The old lady has this kind of means.
The old lady naturally saw Wu's reluctance, she didn't say anything on the surface, but she was more and more disappointed in her heart.
Yuxi and Yuchen accompanied the old lady for a walk in the courtyard to digest food. Yuchen said this to the old lady in a soft voice, and asked Yuxi's opinion from time to time. It doesn't even work if Yuxi wants to be the background.
After half an hour, the old lady finally let people go: "You guys go back!" Yuchen is busy every day, and Yuxi is also busy, so she will not waste the time of the two of them.
Mother Luo sent the two of them out of the hospital, turned her head and said to the old lady: "Miss Si didn't go back directly to Rose Courtyard, but went towards the main courtyard."
The old lady always thought that Yuxi was a cold-hearted person, so she was very wary of Yuxi. But over the past few years, seeing Yuxi being filial to Qiu Shi as if she were her own mother, she let go of her guard.
