Chapter 12 Provocation
Wen thought about it for a while and waved the chrysanthemum leaves away, without saying agreeing, nor disagreeing.
The bright light was burning, but there was no one else in this house except her and a maid.
"Is the master still staying in the outer courtyard?" She looked at the door and was a little dazed.
Fu'er paused, looked at Ping'er, and replied, "Yes, I'll take a break tomorrow. I think I'll come back to the inner courtyard."
Wen pulled the corner of his mouth, withdrew his eyes and lowered it, and said nothing.
But that's why Fu'er and Ping'er are even more worried.
"Madam, if you feel uncomfortable, just talk to your servants, don't make any more trouble for yourself."
Wen raised his eyes and said, "It's bitter? Where did I suffer?"
She glanced at the exquisite ornaments in the room, "Eat, clothing and cost are expensive, so how hard it is..."
If there is anything wrong with this, it is just a lack of a male owner.
Fu'er and Ping'er felt uncomfortable when they saw this.
It is no secret that my wife and the master sleep in the mansion in separate rooms.
Except for the holidays, the master will not go back to the inner courtyard at all.
Moreover, even if I go back to the inner courtyard, it is mostly because of the two ladies.
And their wives...
"Give me instructions and I will make more food for the master and the eldest lady tomorrow, and the old lady will still be there."
The two of them retracted their thoughts, and Ping'er agreed.
Wen looked at the sky, and there was no movement outside the door. Gradually, it was night again.
...
Early in the morning, Wutong Garden was busy. Cui Jiuzhen was urged to get up. After washing up, she changed her clothes, combed her delicate bun, and even added a few strokes to her makeup.
Seeing Ming Xiang and Yuyan busy themselves, they did not forget to remind her, so they suppressed their anger that they woke up.
"... The master will definitely ask about Madam Li. I heard that I have been sent away, so don't hold on to you at that time."
After Mingxiang finished speaking, she had already prepared the hem of her clothes for her.
The rest were cleaned up, Yuyan checked it, and then helped her leave without any mistakes.
As soon as the sun emerged, Cui Jiuzhen opened her eyes that were not very clear, "Inquiry where Madam Li was sent."
Yuyan looked up, "Miss asked what she did. She left the mansion and thought about it. It was not easy for her to come back."
Cui Jiuzhen chuckled and glanced at her, "When did I say I would let her go? So what if I leave the mansion!"
Yuyan choked, but fortunately, there were too many things that surprised her these days and she was already a little used to it.
After murmured, he stopped talking.
Soon after he arrived at the main room, Cui Jiuzhen entered the main hall and paid a blessing to the two of them who were present at the seat according to the courtesy, "Please pay tribute to my father, and my mother!"
The man sitting in the upper seat gently his eyes, "Sit down and talk to his father."
Cui Jiuzhen responded, sat down under him, and looked up at the other person.
The original owner's father Cui Xun was about 35 or 36 years old. He had a handsome face and a little cold eyebrows, but when he saw her, he turned warm and softened his entire facial features.
The robe with blue and beautiful blue cloud patterns on his body made him look more elegant and kind.
"Thank you, father." She said with her head down, and felt a little regretful when she looked at the man in front of her.
It is probably impossible to imagine that such a person would become a paralyzed person who could only lie on the bed and be served by others.
Some are not very comfortable.
"Are you hungry? Yuanshu hasn't arrived yet, so you can eat some rice cakes and cushions in a while."
"I'm not hungry, I got up first and ate a lot of tea."
Cui Jiuzhen replied, scanning the Wen family who was left aside.
Although Cui Xun ignored her, she still bent her mouth gently and dignifiedly.
Thinking of what she heard, she knew it.
"...I heard from your mother that you want to take care of Lan Qing's dowry by yourself?"
Wen's?
Cui Jiuzhen was puzzled and replied, "Yes, my daughter is not young anymore, and she has never learned the best gifts. Her mother is not in good health and is not inconvenient to bother her. She just wants to learn to take care of the dowry by herself."
Cui Xun nodded and looked at Cui Jiuzhen, who grew from a palm-sized and graceful appearance now.
It has been so many years.
"In the past, you were always disliked when you asked you to learn. Now that I have to learn it myself, I feel much more at ease."
He said, feeling emotion in his heart.
He is usually busy with government affairs and cannot watch the affairs of the inner court. He will inevitably neglect her. Besides, he cannot teach her what she gives, so he can only teach her.
It’s not that he has never mentioned the gifts during the study, but he was rejected every time, so he couldn’t force it anymore. Thinking that if it really doesn’t work, he just let her go!
When he married into the Wang family, he took more care of him and asked Wen to choose a few capable maids to help her.
Even if the Wang family is dissatisfied with him and Cui family, she will not be wronged.
He just hopes that his daughter can be safe and happy!
"You have to worry about my daughter's painstaking efforts in the past."
Cui Jiuzhen followed his words and said.
Let’s look at Wen again, “Mother, my daughter will learn well in the future and help you.”
Cui Xun was relieved and looked at Wen.
"If you have this kind of heart, your mother will be content." Wen smiled gently appropriately.
Her slightly pale face made her look weak and beautiful, making people want to feel pity.
Sure enough, when Cui Xun saw that her face was not very good, she frowned. Although she didn't say anything, she paid more attention.
At this time, Cui Yuanshu brought the maid to pay his respects. Cui Xun looked a little later than before. He wanted to say a few words, but saw that her eyes were slightly swollen and couldn't help asking, "What's going on? Your eyes have become like this."
Cui Yuanshu opened her mouth and glanced at Cui Jiuzhen before saying, "My daughter is fine, but she thought of Madam Li, who didn't sleep well last night."
Upon hearing this, Cui Xun's intention to continue asking was fading, and he stopped talking and ordered someone to serve the meal.
Seeing that there was no response, Choi Won-shu stomped her feet secretly and looked at Choi Jiuzhen. Seeing that she had exquisite makeup and beautiful dress, she bit her lip.
Unexpectedly, when he moved to the side hall, Cui Jiuzhen turned around and bent the corners of her lips with a smile on her face.
How could she not see such an obvious provocation?
"Is the eldest sister still angry with me? I was anxious that day. What I said made you dislike, sister, don't blame me."
His steps paused, and listening to these familiar words, Cui Jiuzhen tickled in her heart.
Look at Cui Yuanshu's eyes red, her eyes full of cowardice, and her admiration. I don't know, but I really think she respects her elder sister more!
He is used to pretend.
"It's just a servant. If you are angry with me for this, can I really blame you?"
This makes her look generous and doesn't care about her.
Sure enough, Cui Yuanshu's face froze.
Cui Xun entered the seat, heard this, looked up and glanced at her, "Since you have sent it out, you are not allowed to mention this matter again, and you must not be disrespectful to your sister in the future."
Wen sat aside and nodded, "The master said it's right. The family has no overnight revenge. Yuanshu should not make any more rebellion in the future."
This last sentence was said to Choi Won-sook.
