On the carriage back to the city, Shi Fuxin leaned against the carriage wall in a daze, while Shi Fuyin had worried eyes and kept talking to Zhao Yuyan.
Zhao Yuyan was also a little absent-minded.
Mother didn't ride in the same carriage with them. Is this annoying the younger sister?
Yes, although my mother is a generous person, her minimum requirement is that the girl should obey the rules and not cause trouble when she goes out. Sister Xin offended Mr. Yao San twice, so she must be angry.
Looking at Shi Fuyin and Shi Fuxin who were silent, Zhao Yuyan couldn't say anything. She actually liked the two of them, but she was a concubine after all, and she had to look at her aunt's eyes to speak and act.
When her aunt likes her, she can interact with them more. But if her aunt doesn't like them, she can only stay away from them.
Outside the carriage, Governor Zhao was not there, but Shi Dingxuan, Shi Dinghao, Zhao Shengming, and Zhao Shenghao were getting along quite well, talking and laughing.
The Zhao family directly sent the four Shi Dingxuan brothers and sisters back to Shi Mansion.
After arriving at the Shi Mansion, Shi Fuyin and Shi Fuxin got off the carriage and came to the carriage where Mrs. Zhao was sitting to thank her and say goodbye.
Mrs. Zhao did not open the door, but opened the car curtain halfway, and spoke to the two sisters through the car window, completely losing the previous intimacy. After saying a few words, she let the carriage start.
Seeing the Zhao family's carriage and horses walking away, Shi Fuxin's mood fluctuated a little.
Seeing that her sister was silent and not speaking, Shi Fuyin stepped forward and hugged her arm: "Let's go back to the house quickly."
Shi Fuxin nodded and looked at the wooden cage held in Shi Dinghao's hand.
What is locked inside the wooden cage is the red flame marten.
Fortunately, the Red Flame Marten was recovered, otherwise this winter hunting trip would really have cost the wife and the army.
Shi Dingxuan and Shi Dinghao already knew about the conflict between Shi Fuxin and Chu Yao. They didn't think Shi Fuxin had done anything wrong. They just implicated the Zhao family and couldn't say anything to comfort them.
As soon as the four brothers and sisters returned to the mansion, the servant of the concierge said: "Fifth Master, Ninth Master, Third Miss, Sixth Miss, the eldest lady asked you to go to Yixiang Hall immediately after you return to the mansion."
Shi Fuxin snorted: "Shi Fulin and the others are back?"
The concierge nodded: "It was sent back by my second aunt and Mrs. Zeng."
Shi Fuxin: "Are Second Aunt and the others leaving now?"
The concierge shook his head: "Not yet."
Shi Fuxin's lips curled up into a sneer: "Brother, sister, I want to go back to Yiguiyuan first."
Shi Dingxuan: "Let's go together."
The four brothers and sisters went back to Yiguiyuan directly.
...
Entering the east wing of the courtyard on the third day, Yuan Bao was talking to Jin Gui with a happy face: "Fortunately we didn't follow Miss Six to the paddock, otherwise Miss Six would have caused such a big trouble, and you and I would both have to be punished."
After Shi Fulin and her party returned home, they immediately publicized what Shi Fuxin had done in the paddock. Now the entire house knew how Shi Fuxin offended Chu Yao in the paddock.
Jin Gui remained silent and didn't speak, obviously thinking the same thing.
If the master makes a mistake, the most he can do is to be punished by kneeling in the ancestral hall or being banned from the house. But as maids, they will be punished. If the mistake is too big, they will even be sold.
"I told you a long time ago that we shouldn't come to Yiguiyuan as errands..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Shi Fuxin entering the room.
"Since you are so unwilling, then I will make it happen for you."
Shi Fuxin looked at Yuan Bao, whose expression changed drastically, with an expressionless expression, then glanced at Jin Gui, who got up in panic, and placed the wooden cage containing the red flame mink on the table.
Seeing the Red Flame Marten, panic flashed across the faces of Jin Gui and Yuan Bao.
Shi Fuxin looked at the two of them coldly: "Let me ask you, who took my red mink?"
Looking at Shi Fuxin, who was exuding a cold aura, Jin Gui swallowed: "It was Miss Seven, the servant wanted to stop it, but we couldn't stop it at all..."
Shi Fuxin didn't have time to listen to the two people's nonsense, so she came to ask them. She just wanted to confirm who was the one who took her Red Flame Marten. After knowing who it was, she turned around and walked out of the room.
"Xiao Fang."
Xiaofang, who was still sweeping the floor seriously, heard Shi Fuxin calling her and immediately trotted over.
When she arrived, Shi Fuxin said: "Xiaofang, you will be responsible for guarding my house from now on. You have to do it in a way that, except for my father, my mother, my brother, my sister, and my brother, no one else can
As long as you don't get my permission, you can't enter the room without my permission, let alone take anything from my room."
Xiaofang listened carefully, and then nodded seriously: "This slave will help the girl take care of the house."
When Jin Gui and Yuan Bao in the room heard Shi Fuxin's words, they both felt panicked. As soon as they looked at each other, they heard Shi Fuxin's voice without any warmth.
"Come to Yixiang Hall with me!"
At this time, Jin Gui and Yuan Bao were completely panicked. They knew that things could not go well this time and wanted to beg for mercy, but when they met Shi Fuxin's cold eyes, they could not say anything.
...
Yixiang Hall.
Mrs. Shi is sitting on the high seat, Mrs. Shi Da, Shi Yuhua, and Zeng Yuwei are sitting on the chairs on the left. Jin Yue'e, Mrs. Shi Wu, and Mrs. Shi Liu are sitting on the chairs on the right.
In the middle of the hall, the girls of the Shi family, Shi Fuzhi, Shi Furan, and Wei Ruoxi were sitting on thick brocade.
The atmosphere in the room was a little stagnant. Mrs. Shi was silently fidgeting with the sandalwood beads in her hand, Mrs. Shi frowned tightly, Mrs. Shi Wu and Mrs. Shi Qi looked a little ugly, and Jin Yue'e couldn't hide the worry on her face.
Shi Yuhua and Zeng Yuwei also had dissatisfaction on their faces, but it was more of a state of dissociation that had nothing to do with them.
When Fulin and other children were young, they might wink, gloat, or worry.
"Sixth sister has offended Young Master Yao San, won't she implicate us?"
"Who knows, Young Master Yao San is famous for being a free-spirited man. He leads a group of second-generation ancestors all day long to cause trouble. Sixth Sister insists on causing trouble. She thinks she is an immortal. She thinks Yao San
Will the young master look at her differently?"
"Brother and the others must be careful when going out during this period. If they encounter Mr. Yao San's group, they may be retaliated against."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Listening to the children talking about it, Zeng Yuwei glanced at Jin Yue'e who crumpled the handkerchief into a ball, with a secret joy in her eyes.
Deserve it!
They are just a group of barbarians who came back from the border. They thought they could cling to the rich and powerful just because their limbs were more developed.
When she was in the palace, she really saw Mrs. Zhao's alienation from sisters Shi Fuyin and Shi Fuxin. Those two sisters were probably tired of Mrs. Zhao now.
Humph, you are simply overestimating your own abilities by trying to compare her children to them.
Zeng Yuwei felt itchy with hatred when she thought of Shi Fuxin revealing that the uncle had given the wrong child to the emperor in front of the emperor and other important officials.
Originally, this matter was only circulated among some people who were familiar with the Shi family, and not many people outside knew about it. But now, the whole capital is probably talking about it.
Thinking that their family would be criticized and criticized by others again, she hated herself so much.
Will this family die if they can't control it?
Seeing that the tea bowl was empty, Shi Yuhua frowned and said, "Didn't I say that Dingxuan and the others have come back? Why haven't they come yet?" As he said that, he looked at Jin Yue'e.
"Fourth brother and sister, I'm not telling you, you are really bad at disciplining your four children. At home, you contradict your elders; when you go out, you provoke the nobles. Hmm, they are really powerful."
Seeing Jin Yue'e's face turn pale again, Shi Yuhua felt happy. At first she just wanted a few pockets, but the family refused to get Qiao. This time she had to suppress their arrogance.
"Mom, it's okay for Sister Xin to be ignorant at home, but she's still lawless outside. You can't continue to let her go, lest she cause any trouble to the uncle's house one day."
Jin Yue'e glanced at Shi Yuhua and immediately looked at Mrs. Shi: "Mother, Sister Xin has always done things in a measured way. There must have been a misunderstanding about what happened in the palace."
Shi Yuhua suddenly laughed out loud: "Misunderstanding? Sister Xin fell from the tree and hit Young Master Yao San. She made such nonsense in front of the emperor and offended the Minister of Civil Affairs."
"Then she was at the foot of the rockery, hugging Mr. Yao San's legs and not letting go. Many people saw this with their own eyes. How can there be any misunderstanding?"
Mrs. Shi glanced at Shi Yuhua and said, "Be quiet. We'll wait until Sister Xin and the others come back."
Shi Yuhua choked and showed some dissatisfaction on her face. She felt that her mother was too biased towards Shi Fuxin and others. When she was so angry, she saw Zeng Yuwei winking at her.
Shi Yuhua knew what Zeng Yuwei meant and spoke again: "Mother, don't think it's your daughter who is making a fuss. In this capital, there are many families who have their homes confiscated, beheaded, and exiled for saying the wrong thing."
"Sister Xin is too open-minded outside. Can we openly say that we gave birth to the wrong child? Just wait and see, our family will definitely become the laughing stock of the whole capital."
Mrs. Shi still didn't say anything. She didn't take this matter to heart at all, and even thought Shi Fuxin did a good job.
The Shi family has been silent for too long, so long that many people have forgotten Wuchang Bo Mansion.
After Sister Xin said this, whether it was the emperor or others, they would definitely remember the uncle's house again.
Although it's not that glorious, it's still much better than disappearing quietly.
Seeing that Mrs. Shi was still indifferent, Shi Yuhua and Zeng Yuwei were both a little helpless and couldn't help but wink at Mrs. Shi, trying to get her to speak.
Mrs. Shi glanced at Mrs. Shi but did not speak.
At this moment, the maid outside the door said that Shi Dingxuan and four others had arrived.
Hearing this, everyone in the room looked serious.
Shi Yuhua sat up straight and was ready to give Shi Fuxin a good scolding.
Soon, Shi Dingxuan and four others walked in.
When the four people saluted the elders, Shi Yuhua immediately coughed twice and wanted to call Shi Fuxin in front of him to give a lecture. Unexpectedly, before he could say anything, Shi Fuxin walked straight away.
Arriving in front of Shi Fulin.
Seeing Shi Fuxin standing in front of Shi Fulin with an expressionless expression on her face, Mrs. Shi was stunned for a moment and then her face darkened. They didn't even mention that she was causing trouble in the paddock, but she actually started to attack first.
, still facing his own daughter.
"Sister Xin, Sister Lin has offended you, what are you going to do?"
Shi Fuxin ignored it and just looked at Shi Fulin: "You took my red marten to the paddock?"
Shi Fulin didn't take Shi Fuxin's glare seriously at first, but when she heard these words, a look of panic immediately flashed across her eyes, and a guilty conscience appeared on her face.
Mrs. Shi was very dissatisfied with Shi Fuxin's attitude of not replying to her. Seeing Shi Fulin's guilty look, she immediately frowned: "Lin'er, what happened? What did you take from Sister Xin?"
thing?"
Seeing that Shi Fuxin was not giving up, Shi Fulin rubbed her neck and said, "Yes, I took the red mink in your room, it's just a mink. Look at how stingy you are."
"Just a mink?!"
Shi Fuxin suddenly raised her voice: "You don't care whether taking it for yourself is stealing. Haven't you always talked about the rules and upbringing? But now, look at it, you are not very good at learning the rules."
Shi Fulin was already feeling guilty, but when she saw Shi Fuxin suddenly getting angry, her momentum immediately weakened and she even forgot to retort.
Mrs. Shi who was on the side was shocked when she saw her daughter. She was a little disappointed, but she was more angry at Shi Fuxin.
The words just now were obviously scolding Lin'er, but underneath they were blaming her.
"Sister Lin, apologize to Sister Xin."
Mrs. Shi said sharply to Shi Fulin.
Seeing that her mother was yelling at her in public, Shi Fuxin's eyes instantly turned red. When she became angry, she turned her head away and refused to apologize.
Seeing this, Shi Fuxin sneered.
Seeing the ugly look on Mrs. Shi's face, Shi Yuhua was a little gloating. When she was bumped by Sister Xin, everyone else was watching the show.
Now that it's better, let them have a taste of being contradicted by their juniors in public.
Wei Ruoxi, who was sitting next to Shi Fulin, couldn't stand it anymore. She stood up and looked at Shi Fuxin: "Sixth cousin, why are you so aggressive?"
Shi Fuxin laughed out loud: "She ran into my room to take my things, how aggressive am I?" She said, looking at Shi Fulin, "My things, even if it is a piece of grass, no outsider has the right to take it away."
.”
Wei Ruoxi frowned: "Sixth cousin, your words are too harsh. We are all sisters from the same family, how can we become outsiders?"
Shi Fuxin looked at Wei Ruoxi: "I distinguish the difference between inside and outside very lightly, and there is no need for Miss Wei to preach here. Also, this is a matter between me and Shi Fulin, are you being too lenient?
"
"you......"
Wei Ruoxi's face became angry: "You don't have to embarrass Sister Lin here. The red marten escaped in my hands. Don't worry, I will compensate you for it."
Shi Fuxin smiled sarcastically: "Are you going to pay? I'm afraid you can't afford it."
Wei Ruoxi: "It's just a mink. Even if it's a rare red mink, no matter how expensive it is, I can afford it."
At this time, Fulin no longer acted like an ostrich: "What kind of red ferret do you have, and it actually bites people?"
Hearing this, Shi Fuxin, who had been so aggressive just a moment ago, suddenly smiled, her eyes sparkling and her eyebrows curved as she smiled, making everyone in the room stunned.
"The red marten bit someone, this is really..." What an unexpected surprise.
Shi Fuxin changed from her previous fierce and cold temperament and turned back into a sweet and sweet girl. She was in a good mood and walked to sit next to Jin Yue'e.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Shi's eyelids suddenly twitched when she had been silent. Then she saw Jin Yue'e, mother and son looking at Wei Ruoxi and Wei Ruoxi sympathetically, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Could that red ferret have some origin?
Mrs. Shi was just about to ask when she heard Shi Yuhua say: "Sister Xin, it's been so long since you returned to my uncle's house, why haven't you gotten rid of your little family spirit? You're just a mink, and you just ran away.
Is it worth it for you to say nasty things to your sisters?"
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, and don't distract everyone here. Let's talk about the trouble you caused in the paddock."
Shi Fuxin looked at Shi Yuhua and smiled faintly: "I got into trouble? Why didn't I know? Tell me and let me hear it."
Seeing Shi Fuxin who had no respect for him, Shi Yuhua was furious again. Just as he was about to scold Shi Fuxin, he was interrupted by Mrs. Shi.
Mrs. Shi looked at Shi Fuxin: "Sister Xin, grandma believes you are a good boy who knows how to behave. What happened in the paddock? Can you tell grandma?"
Seeing Mrs. Shi's kind face, Shi Fuxin couldn't resist, so she told her about meeting the emperor after falling out of a tree, and about the conflict with Chu Yao.
"The Emperor didn't blame me. He didn't say a harsh word from beginning to end. He didn't say anything to Chu Yao. It was just an accident."
"As for the conflict with Chu Yao again later on, I have to thank Seventh Sister for that."
"If Seventh Sister hadn't taken my red ferret to the paddock and let it go, I wouldn't have stepped forward to stop it and collided with Chu Yao, causing so many things later."
Shi Fuxin looked at Mrs. Shi: "Auntie, they say you are the most just. You say I got into trouble, so who does it matter to Sister Lin who caused all this?"
Mrs. Shi looked at Shi Fulin with an annoyed expression.
Shi Fulin shrank her neck in fear and hid behind Wei Ruoxi.
When Wei Ruoxi saw it, she stepped forward again and acted like a close sister: "Auntie, it's all my fault. I asked Sister Lin to take out the red mink for the girls to enjoy. The red mink ran away. I
Take full responsibility.”
Shi Fuxin asked with a smile: "How many people have been bitten by the red marten? Whose family they belong to?"
Seeing Shi Fuxin, who was as cold as ice at one moment and smiling brightly at another, changing her face faster than turning the page in a book, Wei Ruoxi frowned with some displeasure: "I bit Miss Song San from Wu'an Houfu's family and Miss Wang Liu from Uncle Nanhe's family.
"
"Only two bites?"
Shi Fuxin was a little disappointed, why didn't she bite a few more.
But two of them are fine. Shi Fuxin showed a smile again on her face: "Miss Wei, I hope that in a few days, you will still be as responsible as you are now."
Not only did Mrs. Shi sense that something was wrong with these words, but Mrs. Shi and Shi Yuhua also noticed something unusual.
There was nothing I could do, the smile on Shi Fuxin's face was too dazzling.
The two of them couldn't save their dignity to ask, and in the end, when they wanted to investigate Shi Fuxin's trouble in the paddock, they just let it go.
When Jin Yue'e left with her four children, Mrs. Shi asked, "Is there anything wrong with Red Sable?"
Shi Fuxin didn't answer and asked instead: "Grandma, this person has done something wrong and must be punished, right?" After saying that, she looked at Shi Fulin and said, "This problem of taking other people's things at will must be changed!"
When she walked into the yard, she saw Jin Gui and Yuan Bao standing aside with their heads bowed. Shi Fuxin said to Mrs. Shi who came out from behind, "Auntie, I don't want these two girls anymore."
When Jin Gui and Yuan Bao heard this, they immediately knelt on the ground in fright: "Miss Six, we were wrong. Please don't drive us away."
It is difficult for a maid who is kicked out by her master to find a good job in the mansion.
Shi Fuxin smiled lightly and said: "Young girl who is not even looked down upon by the family, what's the use of me coming here? Serve whoever you two are willing to listen to."
Listening to the connotation in Shi Fuxin's words, Mrs. Shi's face darkened: "It's just two maids. If you don't want them, forget it. Auntie will just pick two more for you."
Shi Fuxin smiled and refused: "I don't dare to bother my eldest aunt. I have Xiaofang by my side, which is enough."
Mrs. Shi was too lazy to do anything, so she nodded and left with Shi Fulin.
