Why?
When Shi Yuyi asked rashly, Qi couldn't figure it out for a while. It was the woman beside her who glanced at Shi Yuyi and said softly, "Ma'am, you forgot, it's time for Miss to get married."
"Marry? Yes, Yu Yi is going to get married. You mean..." Mrs. Qi After being reminded by her, she suddenly understood after being confused.
"Mother? What are you talking about?" Shi Yuyi couldn't help but blush when she saw her mother talking about her marriage. Puzzled question.
"She, it's probably for the dowry your mother left for you. People from small families have shallow eyelids." Mrs. Qi leaned forward and patted Shun Shi Yuyi's temples, and said softly.
When the mother-in-law heard her say that, her eyelids twitched. If all the private property of my young lady is taken out, it is almost more than the property of the entire Zhongwuhou Mansion. Her mother's dowry, plus her father's Qi family. Although the Qi family was robbed and ruined, it has survived for hundreds of years. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so how can it be compared with the new nobleman Zhong Wuhou.
This private property, not to mention the little Ge family, even the loyal Marquis Shi Xinqi, would be tempted. If it wasn't for the young lady's good concealment these years, Zhong Wuhou thought that the young lady's father's family was just an ordinary family, and he might have already done something dark.
But that Ge family really has shallow eyesight, the young lady doesn't have so much private property on the surface, and she is so moved by it that she dares to make a move.
"So that's how it is." Hearing this, Shi Yuyi had a clue in her heart. She hadn't paid attention to the dowry, so naturally she didn't expect it. I didn't expect to be able to provoke Ge Shi's heart, and my grandfather guessed this, so he didn't ask. Otherwise, the concubine's concubine who is so bold and obsessed with the concubine's concubine is plotting against the concubine's daughter for this, what's the point of saying it?
Not embarrassing enough for him.
The night was dark.
Mrs. Qi sat quietly on a few couches in the dormitory, listening to the report from the man in black kneeling in front of him. A smile flashed in her eyes when she heard that Shi Yuyi had schemed against people from An Guogong's mansion in order to escape today. Another thought.
The second son of An Guogong's mansion seems to be seventeen this year. It is about the same age as my own Yuyi. The family style of An Guogong's mansion is also very good. It's a good match.
The Qi family in Chengzhou, a century-old family, will leave behind only family wealth. Even if Shi Yuyi didn't think about it today, those people couldn't get close to her.
But the Qi family was very pleased that her daughter was so clever. If you want to live well in this world, it is better to be smart than stupid. Then a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes.
Those people, be damned.
Thinking in her heart, Qi's eyes flickered with hesitation, and in the end, her love for daughters prevailed, making her ignore the concealment she had been paying close attention to, and ordered someone to destroy Ge and Shi Yuanwu.
Since you dare to reach out your hand to Yu Yi, then chop it off.
Unlike the Zhenwei Marquis Mansion before, what happened in the Zhongwu Marquis Mansion this time was covered up very well, and no disturbance was spread to the outside world. Without a sound, the curtain fell.
Anguo Gongfu.
Tao Xiuwen found some clues, he didn't mean it, but he just felt that what happened after meeting Shi Yuyi was too coincidental, so people went to pay attention to it. In the end, they found out about Aunt Ge and Shi Yuanwu.
It seems that Shi Yuyi is really not an ordinary person. Today, I'm afraid it's not really a coincidence.
Thinking in his heart, Tao Xiuwen couldn't help flashing those delicate and shy eyes.
Such eyes, such wrists. interesting.
In the evening, a group of little sisters who had been on good terms with Tao Yueling came over to have fun for a while, competing in needlework and the like. After tossing for more than an hour, they each dispersed. This Qixi Festival is over.
the second day.
Tao Qiong quarreled with Zhou Shi for a while, then ran to her beautiful grandmother, and saw that she was flipping through two postcards in her hand. Then one was kept, and the other was handed over to Mrs. Yu.
Tao Qiong ran over with her short legs and stretched her head to have a look. She didn't understand the text, so she asked directly, " Grandmother , who sent this?" Our family helped his family, so we came here to thank you." Ke put the post aside, obviously not very interested.
She knew about Mrs. Cai, the old lady of Marquis Zhongwu, she was frivolous and confused, but she was vaguely humble in front of her. What kind of temperament and status is she, she is naturally lazy to coax an ignorant old woman. On the contrary, the wife of their family is generous and has the demeanor of a family. It's a pity, I heard that her family was broken up and she was the only one left. This is not surprising. Before the founding of the country, the world was in chaos for more than 30 years. Among them, I don't know how many families, large and small, disappeared in the chaos of war. The Qi family is not uncommon.
This post was sent by the old lady, and the one for my aunt probably came from Mrs. Shizi.
Tao Qiong blinked, thinking in his heart. I was also a little curious, wanting to know what kind of person this Mrs. Shizi was, who was said to have been doted on by her husband and concubine and killed his wife, so forced to retreat to the Buddhist hall and seldom go out.
This is not urgent, she just needs to pay attention. If someone came to visit, she would naturally receive the news.
With a second thought in her mind, she cautiously threw herself into Ke Shi's arms, and after being cute and coquettish for a while, she left happily. If you don't leave, you can't do it~~~ Her grandmother has already read the book she just put down several times, and if she doesn't leave, she will have to stay and listen to the book.
This...
Listening to the male god read, the reading is still from the script, so it is naturally enjoyable. But listening to her grandmother read those poems and anthologies gave Miss Tao San a headache. slipped away.
Seeing her slipping away again, Ke had no choice but to pick up the book and shook his head, saying, "This child
is really unpredictable." Tao Qiong has been restless since she was a child, and she likes to run around. Now that I'm getting older, I don't seem to be restrained. On the contrary, after I have freedom, I like to wander around more and more.
"Miss is still young, it would be better to be older." The old lady stepped forward to change the tea in her hand, and said with a light smile.
"Three years old and old, I think she will never get better." Ke Shi shook his head, obviously not optimistic.
The mother-in-law didn't answer any more, just smiled and stood aside.
Ke Shi didn't care too much, she only thought about the sixth prince who often came to Tao Qiong, and recalled the other party's doting on Tao Qiong. This noble sixth prince is indeed kind to A Ying. Thinking about her everything. I only hope that this friendship will not change in the future.
No, just as he was talking, someone came in to report. The sixth prince came to the door and went directly to the young lady's courtyard.
Koshi nodded, saying that he understood.
Chen Jiaci always came, and there were many of them, and he was familiar with the family of Duke Anguo's mansion, so he didn't have to come every time. Instead, he ran directly to Tao Qiong.
After all, if he really came to the door with great fanfare. No one is comfortable. That's fine.
The weather was hot in summer, and taking advantage of the coolness in the morning, Tao Qiong huddled in her room after running around one by one to say hello.
The other courtyard of An Guogong's mansion is located at the foot of the mountain. Although it does not have a large lake like Princess Qingyuan's other courtyard, it is also surrounded by mountains and rivers. Skillful craftsmen lead a stream to bypass each courtyard in the courtyard. Added some coolness to this hot summer.
After the age of three, Tao Qiong no longer lived in the side room in Zhou's courtyard. Instead, a small yard was drawn next to the yard, and the two sides were opened to allow her to live by herself.
In fact, when she found out that she seemed to have Su Hui. Zhou thought of her reaction when she saw him getting along with Tao Yunyuan, so he wanted to do this. After all, it was because she was still young and reluctant to part with it, so it dragged on until she was three years old.
It's not that she dislikes Tao Qiong, she's just really shy. This loving couple was seen by a child who didn't understand anything, and a child who understood what it was doing. That's totally different.
Tao Qiong didn't think much about it, but heaved a sigh of relief.
She has been eating the dog food that her father and mother inadvertently stuffed in for three years, and she has had enough. A yard is good, very good.
In this way, both parties are happy and happy.
Tao Qiong's yard is in a very good position, just to avoid the sun exposure at noon. There are running water in front of and behind the house, and it is ventilated. Staying in summer is not very hot.
In such weather, she asked the maids to spread mats on several of her couches early on, put them in the coolest place, and lay down on them happily.
No way, summer is too hot. Moreover, she is very unfriendly to fat people. With her fleshy body, she will sweat with just a slight movement. Just stay well.
On the side, four personal maidservants stood guard. One was fanning, one was doing needlework, one was paying attention to pouring tea and water, and the other was reading to Tao Qiong with a script book.
This life can be said to be very nourishing.
Chen Jiaci opened the curtain and entered the room, and what he saw was this scene, his brows moved slightly, and a slight smile flashed across his face.
This chubby lump forced Yan Chu to lie leisurely on the bed, his belly bulging and bulging with his breathing. There is also a little foot up, shaking it. And let people serve you properly. It seems that there is not much beauty of red sleeves, but it makes people feel very cute. I feel much happier in my heart.
The maidservants immediately noticed this place, and immediately stopped what they were doing and stood up to salute.
Chen Jiaci stretched out his hand to stop it, and the maids hurriedly shut up. Seeing that Tao Qiong lying on the bed had opened his eyes, Chu looked over in a daze.
It was so comfortable, she almost fell asleep.
"Little brother, you're here." Seeing that it was Chen Jiaci who came, Tao Qiong's eyes lit up, and the little drowsiness was immediately patted away by her, and she sat up and said happily.
Chen Jiaci walked over and sat down on a few couches, and said, "Go ahead. Well, did you go out to play yesterday?"
While talking, he looked sideways at Xiaotuanzi's expression with deep eyes.
Tao Qiong nodded and said, "I was going to call you, but I thought it was too noisy there, so I didn't call you."
As she spoke, she looked at the male god with her eyes. Feeling a little strange, the male god seemed a little unhappy just now, but after hearing what I said, he seemed to be much better?
Chen Jiaci's mood has indeed improved a lot, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said, "Well, did you have fun?"
He was indeed in a bad mood, ever since he received the news yesterday that Xiao Tuanzi went out to play with her siblings, he was in a bad mood. Because this Xiaotuanzi never told her about this matter at all, she obviously would talk to herself about everything, but this time when she went out to play, I didn't even hear her mention it.
This matter is very small, just a small thing that cannot be smaller. But as long as he remembered that he was excluded by Xiaotuanzi in this matter, he felt uncomfortable.
Hearing that Xiaotuanzi was thinking of him right now, the uneasiness in his heart slowly receded. It got a lot better.
Tao Qiong blinked his eyes, and secretly remembered this time. She always felt that she seemed to have discovered a side of the male god that had never been shown to others.
"It's okay, it's just..." While talking, Tao Qiong walked up to Chen Jiaci, babbled about what happened yesterday, and then said with some uncertainty and distress, "I always feel that this matter is developing. It went too smoothly, as if it was calculated by someone."
Chen Jiaci quietly listened to this little group talking about her experience yesterday, and her mood became even better.
Sure enough, he still liked the way this little dumpling didn't hide anything from him, didn't have any secrets, and was completely frank.
Thinking in his heart, he lowered his eyes, just in time to see the soft flesh piled up on the lump's belly rising and falling as she spoke. With a move in his heart, he reached out and poked it.
Tao Qiong was startled, subconsciously reached out to hold the fleshy stomach, and looked at him with wide eyes.
Uh--
fingering, Chen Jiaci was slightly taken aback by his sudden behavior just now. It can be seen that Xiaotuanzi's eyes were full of condemnation, the embarrassment in his heart quickly receded, and turned into joy.
He withdrew his hand, looking as if nothing had happened, and couldn't see that he was distracted by Tao Qiong 's words just now, and said, "It was indeed calculated." This sentence attracted attention, and he asked, "Oh? Why did she plot against us." Then she sneaked into his ear and said in a low voice, "Did she take a fancy to my second brother?"
She said this When he came out, his eyes were shining, showing both pride and a hint of disgust.
It's impossible for anyone to make his brothers so popular, but it would be too much to resort to tricks because of this.
Tao Qiong waited for the male god's answer with some anticipation in her heart. To be honest, she really didn't want that Miss Shi to be the kind of person she thought.
She looks delicate, but her eyes are beautiful and full of vitality. Just like the grass on the side of the road, even stones, gravel and wind and rain can't stop her desire to grow.
"No," fortunately, Chen Jiaci denied it.
For a moment, Tao Qiong felt a faint sigh of relief in his heart. Then he asked curiously, "No? Is it really a coincidence?"
"No." Seeing that she was a little anxious, Chen Jiaci played tricks instead. He took a sip of tea unhurriedly.
"Ah. What the hell is that? Little brother, little brother, tell me quickly, tell me quickly. I want to know." Tao Qiong was impatient, and rushed to grab the male god's hand and began to sway and act coquettishly.
Chen Jiaci's body shook slightly after being shaken by her, but a smile flickered at the corner of his mouth. He hurriedly said, "I'll just say it."
As soon as these words came out, Tao Qiong hurriedly stopped, and sat there looking at him obediently.
"Yesterday, someone plotted against her. It is not safe for her to take other cars, so she chose your Anguo Gongfu." Chen Jiaci said.
He put someone beside Tao Qiong for no other purpose than to pay attention to her safety. Although An Guogong's mansion will definitely protect her, but this is his wish. With eyes and ears like this, he is naturally clear about what happened yesterday. His people even knew that Shi Yuyi had been paying attention to the people from An Guogong's mansion ever since he saw them in the market. Later, I deliberately chose the room next to them and made a scene.
However—
it is worth noting that when the guard sent the letter, Shi Yu leaned beside him, and there seemed to be someone secretly following him. And not weak. What is the history of this person? What is the purpose of following Shi Yuyi's side.
You know, people with such skills are not common.
"Thinking about her? Is it the elder brother?" Tao Qiong was immediately taken away by the word "scheming", and guessed where.
Chen Jiaci smiled and said nothing, he wasn't going to tell Xiaotuanzi about the mess in Zhongwuhou's mansion. Shi Yuanwu's behavior was really too lowly, if he said it, it would dirty Xiaotuanzi's ears.
Seeing that Chen Jiaci was not going to say anything, although Tao Qiong was curious, she didn't ask any more.
She guessed that this method was not very honorable, otherwise her male god would not have such an expression, with some disgust and disgust in his eyes. However, when dealing with girls, it should be aimed at appearance and fame. Thinking of this, she immediately felt uncomfortable.
"So that's the case, why didn't she just say it straight, she had to beat around the bush like this." Tao Qiong held her chubby face and said very puzzled.
Chen Jiaci reached out and touched her Baotou. An Guogong's mansion has always been harmonious, and this little group has never experienced this, so naturally he doesn't understand. And although she has Su Hui, it seems that she has never experienced anything too dark in her previous life, she is very pure.
He wanted to teach her, and said softly, "Because this is a scandal in the Zhongwuhou's mansion, what she said directly would tarnish the reputation of the Hou's mansion and attract Zhongwuhou's disgust. In the whole Hou's mansion, only Zhongwuhou is still facing their mother and daughter. Without his protection, her future situation..."
"But we still know." Tao Qiong said even more puzzled.
"But Marquis Zhongwu didn't know that you already knew."
"...So that's the case. It seems that Miss Shi trusts her maid very much." Tao Qiong suddenly understood, and thought of it as soon as she turned her head.
Marquis Zhongwu didn't know, but they also knew, and so did the maidservants. There is no need to worry in my house, the housekeepers have always been strict, and few people talk too much outside. As for those maidservants, since she dared to do it, she probably wouldn't worry about betraying her.
Believe?
Chen Jiaci's eyes flashed with ridicule, unless his wealth and life are in his hands, how can there be so much trust. And just looking at what happened in Zhongwuhou's mansion yesterday, I know that this Shi Yuyi is not a good stubble, and I have a deep heart.
But he didn't say that, for this little group, these are not important, and An Guo Gongfu and he will naturally protect her well. She doesn't need to know about these insidious means, let alone use them.
Today was Chen Jiaci's rest day once every seven days, and he spent the whole morning in Tao Qiong's small courtyard. It was not until noon that they set off for the palace.
Tao Qiong wanted to keep his male god at home for lunch, but Chen Jiaci patted his hair and silently refused.
It was too troublesome for him to eat outside. If something happens, no one can afford it. For the convenience of others and himself, it is best for him to go back to the palace and use it.
Seeing that the male god did not speak but only smiled, Tao Qiong knew that this was not acceptable, so he wrinkled his little nose and watched him leave.
Here, Tao Qiong is living happily, but on the other side, Li Lingruo has already started to inquire about her.
During this period of time, Li Lingruo had just been reborn and did not understand the situation. Later, she was busy getting rid of Li Lingzhi who was hanging around in front of her all day, making her gnash her teeth with hatred. It wasn't until recently that she relaxed a little that she realized that the situation in her own mansion was different from that of her previous life, and she then noticed this young lady from the An Guo Gong's mansion who didn't exist in her previous life.
She clearly remembered that there was indeed this little lady in An Guogong's mansion in her previous life, but it was a pity that she died shortly after she was born and did not survive at all. For this reason, Mrs. An Guogong's son was heartbroken and stayed in bed all the time. But the prince of An Guogong never left him, and he never saw Erse. I don't know how many noble ladies are envious.
How in this life, she survived well?
What concerned Li Lingruo the most was that Cheng Wanru, who was supposed to be her sister-in-law and was pregnant and gave birth this year, did not marry her eldest brother? !
In her previous life, her elder brother was lingering on the sick bed. With the support of Zhanyanghoufu, this woman became the actual person in power of Zhenweihoufu.
But it was her, when she was most embarrassed and asked the mansion for help, she turned a blind eye to it. Sit and watch yourself being abused by those people. Even say you deserve it? !
This woman, this woman, apart from Li Lingzhi and that bitch, she hates her the most. She had already planned how to take revenge on her, but she didn't marry into the Zhenwei Hou Mansion?
Obviously at this time in the previous life, Cheng Wanru had already married her elder brother, and she was pregnant with the eldest son this year, but she didn't come to another hospital to escape the summer heat because she wanted to stay in the mansion to raise her baby. But a while ago, she accidentally mentioned the elder sister-in-law, which caused the servant girl to be puzzled. Only then did she know that her eldest brother is not married, and his reputation is already bad in this capital.
And that Cheng Wanru had already married the eldest son of the Second Household of Duke Anguo's mansion, the famous general in his previous life, who was later even made uncle because of his duties.
When she thought of the news, she felt blocked.
She was terrified in her heart, and couldn't help wondering if Cheng Wanru also had the same adventure as her and was able to start a new life. He even saved the young lady of An Guogong's mansion who was supposed to die young.
But it was only after she inquired that Cheng Wanru hadn't had much contact with the Duke of Anguo's family before she married them. Even now, the movement between the two prefectures is just ordinary in-laws. If she really saved the little lady, the situation would definitely be more than that.
That being the case, this little lady is very suspicious. Could it be that all this is because of her?
However, when she thought about her age, she felt that it was impossible. She is only three years old, and she was only two years old last year. How could she be able to do these things.
She was really shocked when she learned that this little lady had actually made a marriage contract with the sixth prince.
Could it be that the variable is really her? She clearly remembered that in her previous life, because of the evil spirit of the sixth prince, he was single until she died. At that time, he had already dominated the world, and was entrusted by the former emperor to assist the new emperor. I don't know how many people tried to get close to him one after another, but because of his evil spirit, no one succeeded.
But now, there unexpectedly appeared a person who was not afraid of his evil spirit, and even made a marriage contract with him?
These doubts and thoughts kept swirling in her mind. She felt that Cheng Wanru and that little lady were both possible, but she couldn't help but verify it for a while.
The most important thing is that this change has already affected Zhenweihou's mansion, and Cheng Wanru, who was supposed to marry Zhenweihou, married another. Who knows what will happen next?
Li Lingruo was reborn, and she no longer thought about marrying into the royal family full of wives and concubines. I just want to find someone with one heart, and grow old together.
But before that, she had to avenge the hatred of her previous life. Her husband, the second prince who later came to the throne, is now the second son of the crown prince. Li Lingzhi who robbed her of her husband, the group of people in Zhenwei Houfu who refused to save her, and those people who made trouble when she was in trouble. She won't let go of any of them.
She has a prophet and knows most of what will happen afterward. Under this premise, she can easily take revenge on those people. But with this variable, that's not necessarily the case.
The thought that she might not be able to take revenge again. Li Lingruo's eyes turned red in an instant, and his hand was even more vigorous, and the embroidery needle pierced his finger in an instant.
"Miss! Come on, quickly get the medicine." The servant girl who was waiting beside her immediately stepped forward to take off the embroidered cloth, and said loudly.
"It's okay, it's just a small injury." Li Lingruo let the maid hold her hand and said softly.
What is this? In her previous life, when she was in the cold palace. Working with my own hands, I don't know how many injuries I suffered and how much I suffered. Right now it's just a small needle eye, it's... nothing.
Seeing the servant girl washing and applying the medicine carefully, Li Lingruo was in a trance.
She had to find that odd number, and then—
get rid of her.
Palace.
Chen Jiaci soon received a message from the spies, 【The target is collecting information on Miss Tao San. 】
He snapped his fingers, and the endgame that had been arranged was disrupted immediately, but he had no time to take care of it, and his eyes were full of coldness.
Cha Xiaotuanzi, what exactly does this Li Lingruo want to do?
