All Hail Cousin Brother

Mrs. Xu Guogong was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Master Shaoyi misunderstood this matter."

Yu Youyao went on to say: "Since this is the case, I feel ashamed of the "amendment" made by the imperial concubine and madam, but I can't accept it." Speaking of which, she squatted down and saluted. Naturally, such a big gift was not for Duke Xu. Madam can do it, but she said to Concubine Xu Gui: "Of course, it's your concubine's wish, and my daughter accepts it."

Mrs. Xu Guogong's mouth was bitter, and she finally understood what it meant to lift a rock and smash her own foot.

She quickly got up and went to help Yu Youyao, who was squatting down, "Where is the Lord Shaoyi? Ziweiwan is the backyard of the county prince's mansion, and it is also the fault of the third prince. How can you blame the Lord Shaoyi?"

She gave a hand, but didn't.

Yu Youyao still maintained the posture of squatting and bowing down. Ordinary people would be unable to hold back after a few breaths, but she maintained this posture, but she was firmly on the ground, and she couldn't help it.

Yu Youyao lowered her brows and narrowed her eyes: "Ma'am, my daughter understands, please rest assured, Madam, the third prince has a noble status, and since he suffered from my daughter's indiscriminate disaster, my daughter and her family must not bring this matter up to the third prince."

Mrs. Xu Guogong finally understood that three years ago, when Mrs. Changxing Hou called Yu Youyao to be sharp-tongued and made a fuss under the watchful eyes of everyone, she felt aggrieved, annoyed, but also embarrassed and helpless.

She went to the Yu Mansion on purpose today, because she wanted to settle the affairs of the Rongjun Prince's Mansion.

Yu Youyao's words were not far from her goal.

Mrs. Xu Guogong should be happy that she has achieved her goal, but she came to the door in the name of "apology", but she made Yu Youyao open her mouth to turn black and white, as if she had become the bully of Xu Guogong's mansion, deliberately "warning" and "beating" Yu mansion!

Not at all.

Mrs. Xu Guogong looked at Yu Youyao with complicated eyes. With such scheming and city power, who could figure her out?

The imperial concubine made a bad move and played a good hand of cards to a bad end.

The fox didn't hit him, but caused a commotion.

Old Mrs. Yu felt at ease, leaning on the couch, squinting at Mrs. Xu Guogong's deflated face, just like a vicious dog pulling its teeth.

Yu Youyao said aggrievedly: "The little girl was also brought up by the family's etiquette and boudoir. She should have gone to the palace to see the imperial concubine and plead guilty to the imperial concubine, but it's hard to say. He moved and squatted down a little more: "Of course, for the inconvenience of the imperial concubine, I would like to ask my wife to convey the apology to the third prince from the little girl and the Yu family."

Mrs. Xu Guogong's "apology" just now was without sincerity.

At this time, Yu Youyao's "apology" was not very sincere.

Mrs. Xu Guogong didn't even put on a good look, but Yu Youyao's courtesy was impeccable. Comparing the two, Mrs. Xu Guogong was embarrassed to the point of her toes.

"Master Shaoyi, please get up quickly," Mrs. Xu Guogong hurriedly held her hand and helped her up, her voice was astringent: "It turned out that the third prince did something wrong,

How can you blame Shaoyi County Lord, you must accept this compensation, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the imperial concubine. "

Yu Youyao glanced at her grandmother.

Old Madam Yu stopped watching the show, and said in a low voice, "Our family is ashamed to receive this compensation, so you can take it back. As for the congratulatory gift, it is also the wish of the imperial concubine and Duke Xu, so let's keep it!"

Mrs. Yu has already opened her mouth, is it possible that Mrs. Yu can take back what she said?

Mrs. Xu Guogong never expected that the matter would develop to this point. If the "amendment" was not made, it would not be considered as reconciliation with the Yu Mansion. In the eyes of outsiders, it was always the Third Prince's fault.

She ran for nothing this time.

Having said that, there is no point in staying any longer.

When Mrs. Xu Guogong left, Mrs. Yu sneered: "When our Yu clan was prosperous, their Xu Guogong's mansion didn't know where the mud legs were. "Speaking of this, she looked disdainful: "I just watch them do it, but I want to see how long Xu Guogong's love for saving him back then will allow them to do it."

The Xu clan was originally just a small family attached to Duke Ning's mansion. Although it has a bit of background, it is also very thin. It was all due to the promotion of Duke Ning that they were able to serve as a four-year-old when the emperor drove the north. Goods General.

It was the meritorious service in saving the car that won the emperor's appreciation.

Back then, Ning Guogong and his son died tragically in the northern border, and the 800,000 army was wiped out. After General Xu escorted the emperor back to the palace, he was the first to jump out and participate in several crimes against Ning Guogong's mansion.

It is also because of the accusation of General Xu, a close friend, that the emperor can logically push all the faults of Yu Jia's personal conquest on the heads of Duke Ning and his son, and make Duke Ning's family guilty. x

Xu Guogong's actions can be said to be ungrateful.

But everyone knew that all this was ordered by the emperor, so no one dared to say such a thing.

But in private, some old aristocratic families disdain to deal with Duke Xu's mansion. Even if Concubine Lu loses power, there are still many courtiers who secretly support the second prince and disdain to stand in line with the third prince.

With Mrs. Xu Guogong's virtue, what kind of good daughter can she raise?

No wonder Concubine Xu always let Concubine Lu overwhelm her when she was in the palace.

Not long after Yu Youyao returned to Tiaoyu Courtyard, Zhou Linghuai came over.

The two cousins ​​were sitting under the corridor and talking.

After Yu Youyao grew older, every time Zhou Linghuai came back to the Tiaoyu Courtyard, he would no longer be in the same room as Yu Youyao's "lonely man and widow" as before.

The Tiaoyu Courtyard is no different than the Qingqu Courtyard. After all, there are many people, and the two cousins ​​are in the same room, so it is inevitable that they will be disgusted.

Zhou Linghuai put down his teacup: "I'm going back to Youzhou the day after tomorrow."

Yu Youyao was also stunned for a moment, then nodded, "I'll help my cousin pack up later, and this time, should I go back in a carriage, or ride a horse by myself?" At this point, she frowned slightly, and said, "Your leg It’s only been a while since I recovered, so it’s safer to take a carriage for such a long journey.”

In the past two years, she has gotten used to parting with her cousin, and she will no longer cry like two years ago when her cousin went to Shandong to suppress the rebellion because she was reluctant to part with her cousin.

Zhou Linghuai, who was about to ride a horse, hastened to go and return quickly, bent his lips lightly: "Listen to you."

Yu Youyao felt relieved: "Then I will prepare some more things."

Zhou Linghuai nodded, and suddenly asked: "Why don't you ask me, why do you want to go back to Youzhou all of a sudden?"

Yu Youyao looked at the scorching sun outside: "This year's solar terms should be earlier. It has just entered May, and Lixia has arrived. The rice seedlings have to be planted in the fields before Lixia. It will not be a day later. This year is already doomed. It will be a famine." It's been a year, the land in the northern border is thin, and there are few rice fields, and the situation will be more serious in the future, and the northern border is under the rule of my cousin, so I can understand that my cousin is worried."

In previous years, the summer solstice came after the Dragon Boat Festival. div
