Chapter 15

When Yu Siyu got closer, she found that the eldest brother was also in the house. She hugged Yu Xiang with one hand, with a gentle expression on her face that she had never seen before. She was obviously a bastard, but she sat firmly at the position of the daughter of the Marquis's house. Moreover, the ancestors and elder brother were inclined to pamper her more and more. Yu Siyu looked at her coldly, and she really couldn't figure out what magic Yu Xiang had used on the two of them.

But I couldn't figure it out, without Yu Xiang's help, she was disgusted by her mother and grandmother. She had a hard time recently. She changed all the servants in the yard and was very useless. Lin also sent a vicious old woman, who would follow her wherever she went, and looked at her so hard.

Her words and deeds are under the control of others, and this feeling of depression can make people crazy. But what makes Yu Siyu even more desperate is that her ancestor has not taken her out for more than two months to socialize. She is now twelve years old and should take her out for the female relatives of various families to see her, so that she will have hope of a good marriage in the future.

The ancestors did not match her with her. She was a concubine daughter, and any noble family was too noble to marry. The most likely one was to marry as soon as she got old. The sixth-rank chief and the seventh-rank chief clerk were already considered the best. There would be no such unparalleled life as the Marquis’ Mansion in the future!

The more she thought about it, the more she became unwilling to accept it. She had to please Yu Xiang again with a shameful face. Before she got close, she heard her annoying laughter like a little hen. Compared with her inner pain, she couldn't help but help the girl. She asked herself that she was not at fault, but was shocked by Yu Pinyan's cold glance.

Is it amazing if my legs are broken? My elder brother and my ancestors are about to spoil Yu Xiang to heaven! When the real Yu Xiang comes back, be careful not to throw her to death!

Yu Siyu thought to herself badly, but she smiled gently on her face. After seeing Yu Pinyan, she looked at Yu Xiang and said aggrievedly, "It's good that sister is happy, it's because my sister is talking too much."

Yu Pinyan looked at her coldly, and she had to wait and stand outside the window with awkward words.

Yu Xiang supported his cheek with one hand and leaned against the window. He neither took the initiative to ask about his intentions nor asked her to enter the house. He just let her stand under the sun, and his smile on his face was three-point lazy and seven-point bad. Cuiping and Cuixie had already shrunk to the base of the wall.

Yu Siyu took a breath repeatedly to calm her mind and said slowly, "It's Qianqiu Festival. The Empress ordered people to make 999 palace lanterns hanging in Xihe Garden for people to watch. My brother just came back from the palace to the banquet. Do you see it?" The so-called viewing for people is limited to the top noble family. Of course, the Yongle Marquis Mansion has that qualification. I am afraid that Yu Xiang cannot go, and my ancestors will not take her there.

"You can only enjoy the lanterns after entering the night." Yu Pinyan rubbed the little girl in his arms and asked, "Will Xiang'er go?"

"No!" Yu Xiang refused without thinking. How could a few palace lanterns look better than neon lights? She also felt annoyed when there were too many people.

"No, I must go. Brother Chen Shi Sanji will pick you up." Yu Pinyan made the final decision. He did not allow Xiang'er to hide in this small courtyard for the rest of his life, living alone and humble. He hoped that she could live happily, flamboyantly, and freely.

Yu Xiang turned his mouth and was about to protest, but he saw Yu Pinyan wearing shoes and leaving without giving her any chance to speak.

Yu Siyu hurriedly chased after him and begged, "Can you bring me with me? Xiang'er's legs and feet are inconvenient, so I can take care of her if I go with her."

Yu Pinyan nodded slightly and accelerated his pace and left.

Yu Siyu felt that there was no need to please Yu Xiang anymore, so she stood at the door and smiled proudly at her and led the old woman away in a hurry. She had to go back and prepare the clothes she would wear for the evening. The lantern festival was set up in Xihe Garden, and the empress ordered the crown princess to host the host, and all the female family members of each family supported her. If she could get the eye of a noble person, or make friends with a few princes and daughters, it would be of great benefit to her future.

Seeing that the eldest lady and the young marquis had left, Cuiping Cuixi threw away the net bag, left without asking, her eyes full of resentment.

Taohong pointed at the backs of the two men and said indignantly, "Miss, when they were carrying the Marquis on their backs, they were so rude to you, why didn't you tell the Marquis!"

"Don't worry, I will deal with them when I get tired of playing." Yu Xiang waved his hand, thinking that he had to go to the lantern festival to watch it, and immediately became listless when he thought that he was so hot at night.

----------------------------------------------------

Although the Han Dynasty was not the Han Dynasty that Yu Xiang knew, the social atmosphere was very similar and the constraints on women were less. Unmarried girls could attend large gatherings as long as they were accompanied by servants. The defense between men and women was not serious. It was not difficult for women to remarry. Some noble girls with high status could still marry again until they found a good person.

At the end of the Chen Dynasty, the Xihe Garden was crowded with people, including men, women, and young. The Lords gathered in Youshui Pavilion to have a banquet, talking about whether they were happy during the banquet, and they were not interested in enjoying the lanterns. The wife gathered in the main hall to pay homage to the Queen and the Crown Princess, and talked about some family matters. Most of the unmarried men, women and children ran to the place where lanterns were placed in the back garden, which was the brightest and most lively.

Yu Pinyan pushed Yu Xiang to the door of the back garden and told her softly, "Brother has something to discuss with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Stay here obediently, and when you finish your business, I will come to find you. Have you seen it? There are many beautiful lanterns there. If you want to see it, please ask Taohong Liulu to push you over." After the words came, he threw an encouraging look at his sister, and then walked away with a big stroll.

Encourage your sister! (It's true) You think that I, Yu Xiang, refuses to come because of your inferiority, so you want to inspire me to take the initiative to contact the crowd? My stupid brother, you underestimate me too much! I just dislike the lanterns here that are not as beautiful as neon lights!

Yu Xiang complained secretly, then raised his chin and looked forward.

Many boys and girls gathered to chat and laugh under the swaying lanterns, and the air was filled with the smell of burning lamp oil and a faint incense. The children were playing around at their feet, laughing like silver bells from time to time. The scene was indeed very festive and lively.

Yu Xiang couldn't help but lean forward.

Yu Siyu, who was standing aside, asked with a smile, "Do you want to go over? I'll push you."

She pushed the wheelchair hard. Because the ground was covered with smooth marble and there was no friction, the wheels gently slid forward, bringing Yu Xiang out of the shadow.

Many people heard the sound of wheelchair turning. From a distance, curiosity, interest, contempt and other expressions appeared in their eyes. Several noble women pointed at Yu Xiang's legs, and their faces changed constantly, as if they regarded her as the main topic of gossip.

Yu Siyu smiled badly and advised, "Xiang'er, please follow me. Everyone hasn't seen you for a long time, so I must be very worried about it. Today I happened to chat with them."

If I really miss you, I came to the Marquis' Mansion a few months ago, so why wait until now? Yu Xiang is used to her incomplete body, but it does not mean that she is willing to be watched like a monkey. These people express condolences and sympathy to her openly, but secretly regard her suffering as a breeding ground for nourishing pleasure and superiority.

She, Yu Xiang, does not need such a deformed and pathological "friendship".

"You go, I'll stay here." She turned her face and carefully admired the crape myrtle tree beside her.

Several noble ladies were waving to Yu Siyu, and the jewelry they wore was luxurious and noble, and they must have been from prominent backgrounds. Yu Siyu did not dare to delay and left Yu Xiang over.

"With me, the lame sister, as a topic of conversation, Yu Siyu will definitely be very popular tonight." Yu Xiang sneered, pointing to a quiet corner with the most beautiful flowers, and ordered, "Push me to go over there."

Although Taohong Liulu felt sorry for her master, she knew that she was very strong and did not need comfort at all, so she pushed her over silently. The master and servant stayed in the corner and looked at the crowd of lights and flowers, and looked at them closely, and were very free and comfortable.

I don't know how long it took, a sound of footsteps came from the end of the dim path. Yu Xiang turned his head and saw a chubby girl with a chubby figure slowly coming out of the shadow, holding a piece of pastry that had been eaten by, and behind her was an old lady with a harsh face.

The little girl had two bags, a round face, a round nose, and a round eyes. Her fat cheeks were constantly squirming. There were many pastry slags on the corners of her mouth, which fell down while walking. She obviously didn't notice anyone here. She saw Yu Xiang a little stunned, her eyes widened, and her eyes were frozen on Yu Xiang's legs covered by a blanket. There was no contempt or contempt in her eyes, but only full of curiosity.

Oh, where is this a small ball rolling from? It can't be more cute! Yu Xiang's heart is almost adorable, but he looks a little arrogant and said with a harsh voice, "What are you looking at? Have you ever seen a cripple?"

She likes to pretend to be bad people to scare children. When she sees them screaming in fear, or crying with red noses, she finds it very fun. (Who is this person!)

But she forgot that she is also a small meatball now. She has been lying still for several months, just eating and sleeping well, and with the warmth of luck and blessing, her thin body has grown a lot of soft flesh, her skin has become white and tender, bright and delicious, and her ordinary facial features have grown, like a white drawing that has been carefully painted with various bright colors, becoming gorgeous.

She bared her little white teeth and her nose and eyes were squeezed together. Not only did she not look hideous, but she was a little ridiculous.

The old lady was about to scold the rude little girl, but she heard her master giggle, and more pastry slags fell from the corner of her mouth, and said crisply, "I haven't seen it before."

The old lady quickly stopped her mouth and began to look at Yu Xiang directly. When her master was born, she was assassinated. Not only did she come to the death three months early, she also brought some fetal poisons that could not be removed. She could walk at the age of three and talk at the age of six. In addition to her parents and her elder brother, she never said a word to others. When she saw strangers, she took a detour. She was very introverted and her only hobby was eating.

Today's palace banquet was only willing to come with all kinds of coercion and temptation, but unexpectedly, he took the initiative to talk to others! The old lady was so excited.

As soon as the little barbarian came, he smelled a sweet smell, like his favorite lotus seed cake. He couldn't help but take a few steps towards the source of the fragrance and showed a mouth-watering smile.

Yu Xiang covered her chest, and her heart was almost turned into water. The little Maruko's smile was so stupid that she wanted to scream, and she wanted to rub her round head hard.

"Come here," she stretched out her sinful index finger and made a seductive move. "Sister lets you take a look at your sister's lame legs, and you let your sister rub it."

Maruko thought about it and nodded happily. The old lady beside her stared at the two of them with great pride and did not dare to pant, be worried about whether to scold this bold little girl or let her contact her master.

In the flowers not far away, a chuckle suddenly sounded and disappeared quickly.
