Three hundred and seventieth chapters take the initiative to attack
Yuan Suijun was not very interested in having eight more people in his family, and he had no intention of meeting them.
These eight people were just because he was impatient with Su Yibo's endless honey traps, so he just tried to get rid of them. If they could make Su Yueling happy, it would be good, but if they couldn't, then send them away.
Su Yibo was obviously very worried about whether he knew something. When he went to court, he even gossiped about the matter with him.
Yuan Suijun still had an expression so calm that no one could see his inner thoughts, "Uncle Su Yi cares so much about them, it seems that they are your favorites. In this case, a gentleman will not take away what others like, so I will give it back to you."
, lest Uncle Su Yi misses them and they miss you."
Su Yibo said quickly: "This is ridiculous. They are not my concubines. I just see them as pitiful, so I took them in. Knowing that they live well in your house makes me feel at ease."
He became more and more uneasy. Could Yuan Suijun's words imply that he already knew the usefulness of those women?
The fact that the other party is so favored in front of the emperor and does things so flawlessly shows that he is a smart man.
Su Yibo could only comfort himself. He hadn't done much so far, so he probably hadn't offended the other party. Besides, Yuan Suijun wasn't at a disadvantage either. Who could have eight lively and fragrant beauties?
Is he so gorgeous?
Other officials who knew about this also felt that Yuan Suijun was very beautiful and blessed. What surprised them was that Su Yueling, the head of Weiguo County, actually accepted these beauties. Such a beautiful and virtuous woman could be said to completely satisfy their expectations.
My wife asked for it.
On the other hand, the Queen Mother in the palace was extremely angry when she learned about this.
As an elder, she didn't even give Su Yueling a gift. How could Mrs. Su Yiling have the nerve to do this? (The Queen Mother selectively ignored Su Yueling's request. Instead, she felt that Mrs. Su Yiling was hiding a traitor in her heart and had spotted Su Yueling's soft-hearted temperament.
).
In the position of the Queen Mother, she can do things as she pleases.
When she was unhappy, she called Su Yibo's wife Shen Hanru into the palace.
In the past, Shen Hanru would have been extremely excited to be summoned by the Queen Mother. However, thinking of Su Yueling, she suddenly felt uneasy.
Doesn’t the Queen Mother want to stand up for Su Yueling?
Facts have proved that her hunch was very accurate.
After entering the palace, she was scolded by the Queen Mother, saying that she didn't even take care of her own backyard, and she was so rebellious that she interfered with other people's family affairs. She couldn't bear to see the existence of a concubine, but she wanted to have a fire in someone else's backyard, which made her evil-hearted.
People with liver disease.
Shen Hanru was scolded and cried on the spot.
Shen Hanru cried after being scolded, but she didn't dare to refute or leave. She could only endure the grievance and listen.
Being reprimanded by the Empress Dowager, Shen Hanru felt that she was too embarrassed to see anyone. She would never get back the power of housekeeper in her lifetime.
Thinking of this, Shen Hanru cried even harder. She really regretted it.
After being scolded for nearly half an hour, Shen Hanru left the palace sobbing, and everyone could see her red and swollen eyes.
Everyone who knew the news immediately raised Su Yueling's status once again. With Shen Hanru's lesson learned from the past, everyone else had to think twice before sending someone to Yuan Suijun.
In the palace.
After the Queen Mother finished cursing, her mouth was thirsty and her throat was dry.
"Bring me a glass of grape juice. I want it iced," she said.
Soon, the cool grape juice was served. The Queen Mother took a sip, and her anger dissipated a little.
The reason why she mobilized so much today was for everyone to see. Lest someone else would try to deceive Su Yueling into being shy and deliberately give her away, spreading maggots between her two mouths. Originally, she had thought of giving her a reward directly like she did to Xia Zhiyao. Two palace maids with outstanding looks went down. Shen Hanru would not dare to treat the palace maids she had rewarded harshly, let alone sell them as casually as before.
In the end, Su Yueling stopped her.
According to Su Yueling, although this would make Shen Hanru die of suffocation, it would wrong the two young and beautiful palace maids, and instead benefit the bad old man Su Yibo, who was half buried in the ground.
The Queen Mother thought it made sense, so she finally chose to target Shen Hanru.
Needless to say, after scolding her this time, she felt a lot more refreshed.
The Queen Mother thought that if she was in a bad mood in the future, she could find someone to come in and scold her.
…
Aunt Zheng specially spread the news in the house that Shen Hanru was scolded by the Queen Mother. This was also the last warning that Aunt Zheng gave them to see if they would stay on their own terms from now on.
Shishu and others played each other and had a new understanding of Su Yueling's favor.
In their eyes, Shen Hanru had a noble status and could dominate their lives with just one thought. The result would be humiliation. If it were them, it would not be as simple as being scolded, and her life might be at risk.
Shishu and others adjusted their mentality quickly. Anyway, they never wanted to be Yuan Suijun's concubine from the beginning, but they were focused on hugging Su Yueling's thigh.
After all, Su Yueling's thighs are much easier to hug. All you need to do is behave well in front of her and use your special skills.
But it was very painful for Shi Hua, who was only focused on Aunt Yuan Suijun's position.
Is it better for her to seduce or not to seduce?
If she is only allowed to be a maid, her talents will not be put to use, which will be really uncomfortable.
The person who lived in the same room with her was Shi Shu. To her surprise, Shi Shu really caught Su Yueling's eye, and Su Yueling often kept her by his side. Over the past few days, she had received many rewards.
Beautiful hairpins, unique silk and satin, and even a whole cantaloupe.
That cantaloupe is a tribute-level thing.
In addition to serving as a servant, Nian Dong's treatment is also quite good. In addition to three meals a day, she also gets some extra snacks and fruits every day. Yesterday, she was even given a bunch of grapes.
Obviously in Zhuangzi, Shi Hua has always been the most valued by his uncle. She wears the brightest clothes and the latest jewelry. But here, she is not as good as others.
Shi Hua decided that she couldn't bear it anymore. If she continued like this, her treatment would get worse and worse. Her hands were used to write poems and paint, not to wipe the table with a rag.
Shi Hua decided to take the initiative. As long as she did not become the kind of concubine who disrespected her mistress, and showed sufficient respect for Su Yueling, the Queen Mother could not punish her. Which house in the capital did not have an aunt to marry her, even the emperor They all have concubines.
So next, she took the initiative to do some things for herself, such as picking flowers in the garden so that Niandong could trace flowers. For example, she took a broom to clean the fallen flowers and leaves on the ground early every morning.
She changed from her previous decadence and showed such a positive attitude that the beauties who came with her were puzzled.
"What is Shi Hua doing?"
"The county boss didn't let us do menial work, so why is she rushing to do it instead?"
"Maybe it's to show your diligence?"
When they asked Shi Hua, Shi Hua just said: "I just want to atone for my previous disrespect for the county lord. Please don't stop me. If you do this, I can feel more at ease."
She has said so, and it is not easy for others to persuade her.
Then the time for Shi Hua to start working became earlier and earlier every day, and it was almost becoming a scene in the house.
Su Yueling was puzzled and asked Aunt Zheng, "What exactly does she want to do? Does she want to show that she is being treated harshly?"
She felt that Shi Hua was most likely holding something in.
She asked: "Remember to observe carefully and tell me later." It was rare for someone to take the initiative to perform a monkey show for her, and she would not watch it until she saw it.
At the end of the day, Shi Hua got up at Yin Shi (that is, three o'clock in the morning).
She yawned and was wearing a plain blue skirt with no patterns. Because she had eaten less and worked a lot these days, she had lost weight, and her little face as big as a palm looked pitiful.
The waist is tied by a white belt, which is so thin that it doesn't fit into one's hand.
In the night, she took a broom and swept it slowly. When the wind blew, the hair on her head floated up. Except for the hairband, there was no extra jewelry on her head. She looked very elegant.
Under this situation, Shi Hua finally waited for Yuan Suijun, who was about to go up to the morning court.
