Who Cares

After changing to a damp and cold veil, Zhao Chunxi was awake for a moment. She tried to open her eyes and saw Guan Suyi's flawless face, and she was taken aback for a while.

Guan Suyi held her hand and asked softly, "Xie'er, are you better? Mother sees you are here." When the words fell, her throat tightened slightly, and she was disgusted by the word "mother".

No matter how scheming Zhao Chunxi is, she is only a little girl of twelve and thirteen. Moreover, she is ill, her brain is already burnt, and she subconsciously shows disgust, then she shook her head and hid behind, taking advantage of the situation to break away from the other party and hold her tightly. Hands.

Guan Suyi let go of her and chuckled, "It seems Xi'er is not ready to accept me, it doesn't matter, we will have a long time in Japan." Then he twisted a veil and planned to change it.

The maid and the old mother who stood by were already very defensive against her. Seeing that the young lady showed obvious resistance, they hurriedly stepped forward and squeezed her away, urnly asking the new lady to go back first, so as not to get sick. Zhao Lu was suspicious and felt that her daughter's behavior was not as close to Miss Guan Jia as she said. On the contrary, she was a little disgusted. In that case, why did she cry and cry to marry her by herself?

However, in his heart, his daughter was right no matter what he did or said. Even if he had doubts in his heart, he quickly left behind and waved his hand to the new wife apologetically, "husband...you go back first, Xi'er is very ill. I will stay here to look after her tonight." The phrase "Mrs." could not be said after all.

that's all? Not even a word of sorry? This is your wedding night. Guan Suyi smiled sarcastically in her heart, but on her face she said that it was all right. Thanks to Zhao Chunxi's self-sacrifice, otherwise the big carved jujube branch she brought from home would have been soiled by Zhao Luli's foul.

The two masters and servants walked back slowly carrying the lanterns. As soon as they were discharged from the hospital, they saw a black figure rushing over from the other side of the path and hitting Minglan who was leading, causing her to fall. They didn’t say sorry, let alone stop. Check the situation, the wind has gone far. The servant following him panted and shouted, "Master, slow down and be careful of falling! The eldest lady just has a high fever, just drink a few notes of medicine, and nothing will happen."

The voice and the figure quickly faded into the night, making Minglan look dumbfounded, "Miss, that is the son of Houfu? How come the Zhao family are all of such turbulent temperament, one running faster than the other. Also, how did the uncle sway before. Without waking up, he just yelled outside and left. He was really pretending to be drunk? Why?"

Guan Suyi gathered the big cloak and smiled lightly, "It is said that the dragon begets the dragon, the phoenix begets the phoenix, and the son born to a mouse will make holes. Master Zhaohou slaps his hoof fast, and of course his son is not bad. As for why he Pretending to be drunk, maybe it was because he wore the green hat for too long and was reluctant to take it off. In short, he does whatever he likes, regardless of our business."

Minglan nodded stupidly at first, and then recollected, "That's not right! What kind of rat, hole, and hoof, young lady, why do you always compare Master Hou to a beast? And what is there about that green hat? ?"

Guan Suyi poked Xiaoya's head, and walked back first, "Compared to a beast. You can still praise him. In short, remember that these people in the Hou Mansion are not fuel-efficient lamps. Don't walk too close to them. "

"Sure enough, the high school is not easy to climb. Miss, don't worry, the slave and maid will remember." Minglan replied dully, covering her forehead. At this moment, she could tell that Master Hou didn't care about the young lady at all, and the eldest lady and the son were also full of hostility towards her. I am afraid that the future will be very difficult.

The master and servant returned to the main room. From a distance, they saw Mingfang standing under the porch with the sober soup, facing the dim candlelight and asked, "Where is my uncle?"

"Master Hou is guarding the eldest lady tonight, and won't be back." Minglan blew out the lantern, her tone slightly sharp.

However, Mingfang was thinking of Zhao Luli intently, without noticing it, and suddenly raised her voice and asked, "How can he not come back? This is the night of his bridal chamber!" His expression was even more irritating than the new lady, until she noticed that Minglan was suspicious. His gaze was busy and rounded, "How can my uncle treat the lady like this! If this matter is known to outsiders, you can't watch the lady's jokes?"

Guan Suyi waved her hand, "It's okay, I'm not afraid of people making jokes." As early as when she was sent to Cangzhou in her previous life, she had slowly developed a body of copper and iron, and a heart made of iron and stone. Defamation will not raise the slightest wave.

Mingfang was afraid of being noticed by the master, so she had to pour out the sober soup and was speechless all night.

-----

The next day, Zhao Luli came back in a hurry and brought his newly groomed wife to offer tea to his mother. That year, the Four Books of Women had not yet come out, and the restraint and contempt of women at that time had not reached the extreme, so there was no custom of examining Yuanpa. Therefore, Guan Suyi did not have to bear the eyes of others or scrutiny, or contempt, or pity. .

But the news that the two of them failed to consummate their room still reached the old lady Sun's ears. Right now, Sun was sitting in the hall, his face with countless textures carved out by the wind and frost looked old and cold. Seeing the gorgeous and dignified face of Qingqing's wife, she was stunned for a moment, then calmed down, took the tea and drank it, and gave a very heavy meeting gift.

"Xie'er is ill and has her own servant wife to take care of. You are just newly married, so you should be close, so you can spread the branches and leaves for my Zhao family." Putting down the teacup, she looked at her son, and her slightly soft face immediately tightened, "Xie'er There I will send someone to take care of it, and you don’t need to be with you all day and night. As a man, you should have worked for the country. Look at what you look like now, all day long, love for children and sadness for the spring and autumn! Okay, Go down, walk around the house with Suyi and get acquainted with the environment."

Zhao Luli was only superficially respectful to his mother. After accepting the promise, he led his new wife to leave. When he reached the fork, he parted ways and went to Penglai Garden as usual, but this time he finally made progress, leaving a sentence of "sorry". Guan Suyi politely stated that she wanted to follow along, but was dismissed by him in a few words. It seemed that he was still in the defensive stage of his successor, and she would never let her approach a pair of children at will without a long inspection.

Guan Suyi couldn't ask for it, but with an awkward expression on her face, she stood still for a long time before slowly leaving. The master and servant returned to the main room and sat down. Guan Suyi casually found an excuse to dismiss Mingfang, and asked Minglan to pour a cup of hot tea to dispel the cold.

Minglan hesitated, "Miss, I don’t know if the maidservant thinks too much. I always feel that the old lady’s attitude towards the eldest lady and Lord Hou is wrong, as if a bit disgusted. No, it must be the maidservant who thinks too much. Son and granddaughter."

"It's not that you think too much." Guan Suyi unfolded a book and said casually, "The Beihou Mansion in this town looks glamorous, but in fact it hides dirt and bad luck. They are not mothers, fathers, and fathers. If you are not a child, you don’t know the courtesy, righteousness, honesty, filial piety, and loyalty, and there is no family affection. Even if you see any ways, don’t talk about it, just don’t care about our business."

It's the phrase "don't care about our business" again, it seems that the young lady doesn't think of herself as Zhao's family at all. Ming Lan nodded repeatedly, blindly observing the learned master.

The little girl was thrown away, but Guan Suyi inevitably fell into memory. At the beginning, she also noticed that the attitude of the old lady was different, and mourned her son more than she died; she was critical of her granddaughter in every possible way; she was extremely doting and pampering with her grandson. Obviously they are all in the family, and there is no distinction between the ancestors and the concubines. Why are they treated so differently? Could there be any unhumane secrets? This question was not solved by Zhao Wangshu until he was about to die. It turns out that Ye Jieyu was Zhao Luli's "deceased wife". No wonder the old lady hated Zhao Chunxi and Ye Fan together, who told them to look like Ye Jieyu. As for Zhao Wangshu, after all, he is Zhao Luli's son, and he is also the hope of reviving the lintel, so he should naturally be well protected.

Now that I think about it, the old lady had treated her well, but when she saw that she couldn't hold Zhao Luli's heart, she slowly faded. She has never harmed herself, nor has she helped herself, she has nothing to do in her life. After thinking about it, Guan Suyi spread out the rice paper and started painting at the white snow and little red plum outside the window.

In the main courtyard, the old lady Sun had changed into gorgeous gowns, and she was lying on the couch in a well-used and old-fashioned garment. She caught a glimpse of the steward who had opened the curtain and asked in a deep voice, "Hou Ye did not accompany him. Guan's visiting the garden?"

"No, I went to Penglai Garden by myself. Looking at Mrs.'s complexion, she seemed to be very wronged." The manager's mother whispered back.

"I accompany the old man to travel north and south, and I have seen so many handsome figures, but there has never been one who can beat the Guan family. Wasn't that **** who claimed to be the number one beauty in the Central Plains? Compared with the Guan family, it is really one in the sky and one on the ground. Master Hou doesn’t like it now, but it doesn’t mean that you don’t like it in the future. Feelings will always come out. Go and give her the key to the warehouse, the account book, and the matching cards. In the future, she will be the well-deserved mistress of the Hou Mansion. I have to carry her. I lifted it up." As if thinking of something, Sun snorted, "Give all the dowry left by the **** to Guan. If it weren't for holding these dowries, Zhao Chunxi can come here to ask for peace a few days ago, as her father did. She hid to the horizon. She deserves to be the wicked kind of a bitch, with the same vicious mind and nasty methods. In order to prevent the unfilial son from consummating the house, she directly made herself sick. What's the point of her tossing this?"

The mother-in-law didn't dare to take the conversation, so she slandered in her heart: Of course it's interesting. The new wife has a distinguished family background and both talents and appearance. If she is favored by Lord Hou and gives birth to a son, where can she and the eldest master have a foothold? As long as he dominates Lord Hou for a long time, it will be easy to attack the new lady again.

Sun knew this well, and waved his hand tiredly, "Bring things over, I don't care about this house, let them toss on their own. I want to see if they can toss a flower out. Hope is closed. Like the legend, he is a shrewd and capable person, able to hold Lord Hou, and also able to suppress the evil kind."

Guan Suyi was not surprised when she received the things from the old lady. In her previous life, she also took over the housekeeping power on the second day of her wedding. She was moved and panicked at the time, and immediately eliminated the resentment of being alone. As for Zhao Chunxi's dowry, she had been doing her best to take care of her, but she didn't expect that this action would become evidence of Ye Fan and Zhao Chunxi's attack on their greedy husband's property, so that she was almost divorced.

Holding the dowry list, Guan Suyi twitched the corner of her mouth lightly, revealing a sneer. Since you think I am too dedicated, save a little effort in this life and leave you with nothing.
