The girl from Pingyang Hou Mansion who was originally wanted to show off to Xue Pingli got married. The concubine of the Hou Mansion, Mrs. Zhenyuan Hou, was unlikely to be attracted to her, and the current legitimate daughter of Pingyang Hou Mansion is Chen Qian, the legitimate daughter of the eldest family.
, she is only fourteen years old.
Mrs. Zhenyuan Hou hoped that her son could marry as soon as possible. She could not wait until Chen Qian grew up before marrying someone home, so she did not consider the girl from Pingyang Hou Mansion.
After thinking about it, Mrs. Zhenyuan Hou thought of her natal niece. Of course, she was not her brother's daughter, but her cousin's daughter.
Mrs. Zhenyuan Hou wanted to bring her son and her natal niece together, and of course the other people in the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion also hoped that the Crown Prince's wife would be on their side, so more people came to Xue Pinli.
Xue Mingzhu didn't like the candidates who wanted to introduce her brother. One of the reasons why she wanted Xue Pingli to marry Yan Long was because Yan Long was a princess. Even if something happened to her brother, would the people of the Hou family dare to bully the princess?
?
"Brother, I really don't like..." Xue Mingzhu was interrupted by a joyful voice before she could say anything.
"Cousin Pingli."
After Xue Mingzhu heard this voice, she choked on the rest of her words and stared at the beautiful figure at the door of their village with wide eyes.
Standing at the door of Zhuangzi, a girl wearing a dress that was incompatible with Zhuangzi had a frail appearance and a pitiful fair face. She looked like a poor girl who needed pity.
This girl is Sun Liu Niang, the niece of Xue Pingli's second aunt's aunt, the second roommate of Zhenyuan Hou Mansion.
"Cousin Pingli..." When Sun Liu Niang saw Xue Pingli coming on horseback, she showed an expression of admiration on her face. She looked at Xue Pingli shyly like a little daughter, as if she was seeing a great hero.
Xue Mingzhu: "..."
Xue Mingzhu couldn't help turning her face to the side and rolled her eyes secretly. Compared to her mother's niece, she seemed to dislike this niece from her second aunt's family even more.
"Miss Sun, please call me Xue Langjun, Mr. Xue, or Prince Xue." The expression on Xue Pingli's face was not very kind but not serious either, and he said to Sun Liu Niang calmly.
"Cousin Pingli..." Sun Liu Niang felt aggrieved immediately after hearing this. She said pitifully, "Yes, it's Liu Niang. Did Liu Niang make you unhappy? You said... As long as you say it, Liu Niang will change...
"
Xue Mingzhu: "..."
"Sun Liu Niang, why did you come to this village?" Xue Mingzhu asked, staring at Sun Liu Niang. She and her brother came out to relax and avoid the girls in the house who were picked up by them and said they were visiting relatives, but in fact they were to see her brother.
So, how did Sun Liu Niang know that her brother and sister came to Zhuangzi?
"I..." Sun Liu Niang looked at Xue Mingzhu and said with a frightened look, "I am... I am here with Miss Yang Qi..."
Miss Yang Qi is the girl from uncle Xue Mingzhu and Xue Pingli's family, the niece from her natal family that Mrs. Zhenyuan Hou wants to introduce to her son.
"Miss Yang Qi is here too?" Xue Mingzhu asked in surprise, but when she thought that her mother-in-law wanted to match her brother with the girl from the Yang family, she told Miss Yang Qi that it seemed not impossible for their brothers and sisters to come to this village.
I just didn't expect that when her mother-in-law told Miss Yang Qi about their brother and sister, no, Sun Liu Niang accidentally found out about her brother's whereabouts, so Sun Liu Niang came with Miss Yang Qi.
Xue Pingli, who was on horseback, heard the words and tightened the reins in his hands.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, having several girls surrounding him meant that he was really blessed, but Xue Pingli said that he could not tolerate it.
In these years, Xue Pingli only thought about practicing martial arts, learning the art of war, serving the court, and inheriting the prince's mansion. He didn't care much about women.
Even though his aunt had arranged two maids for him since he was fifteen or sixteen years old, he didn't pay much attention to it. He basically didn't go to the backyard very much. Those two maids were not like the other maids in his courtyard.
any difference.
Now that the government is doing this kind of thing for his marriage, Xue Pingli is also very distressed. Having too many women is really troublesome.
For example, when they fought in Zhenyuan Hou Mansion, the women in his father's backyard, the women in his uncles' backyard, and when his mother-in-law and aunts fought, he felt scared just looking at them.
So he hopes that his backyard will be simpler and calmer, without so many bad things.
Xue Pingli looked at his sister, and Xue Mingzhu looked back at him. When the eyes of the two brothers met, no one knew what the tacit understanding between them was talking about. In short, the brother and sister rode their horses together and left without intending to enter Zhuangzi.
mean.
Xue Pingli and Xue Mingzhu didn't want to encounter anything unhappy when they were relaxing, so they had better stay in another village, or go somewhere else to play. They didn't want to play where Sun Liu Niang and Yang Qi were.
"Cousin Pingli——" Sun Liuniang's face changed when she saw Xue Pingli turning around and running away so neatly. She didn't expect him to leave like that.
Sun Liu Niang was so angry that she even ran to Zhuangzi to look for him. How could he turn around and leave like this?
What's wrong with Sun Liu Niang? Isn't she as good as Yang Qi? How could Yang Qi, that vulgar woman, be worthy of the heir apparent of Zhenyuan Hou Mansion?
The wife of the eldest son of Zhenyuanhou Mansion, the future Mrs. Zhenyuanhou should be her Sun Liu, not that vulgar guy Yang Qi.
"What's the matter?" Miss Yang Qi who heard the voice came out and saw the angry Sun Liu Niang. Seeing her like this, Yang Qi smiled happily, "Hey, what's going on, Miss Sun Liu? Who made you angry?
?”
"Really, are there some blind people in Zhuangzi who bully Miss Sun Liu? She really deserves to be punished. Miss Sun Liu has never been wronged in the Hou Mansion. How can these guys in Zhuangzi bully Miss Liu?" Yang Qi
The girl said with a smile.
It is true that Miss Sun Liu had never been wronged in the Hou Mansion. Even though Mrs. Zhenyuan Hou hated her niece, she still maintained her dignity as the matron of the house and did not deal with her.
The people in the mansion also saw that Miss Sun Liu was the niece of the second wife, so they were polite to her and did not dare to offend her.
Of course, the only person who can make her angry is Xue Mingzhu, who dislikes her. But Xue Mingzhu is the apple of the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion, how could Sun Liu Niang dare to confront Xue Mingzhu?
"What happened just now? Did the people in Zhuangzi really bully you?" Miss Yang Qi looked at Miss Sun Liu and asked.
Sun Liu Niang looked at Miss Yang Qi's gloating look on her face and secretly gritted her teeth, thinking what if she had been humiliated? She could just pull Yang Qi on her back.
So Sun Liu Niang looked aggrieved and said, "Sister Yang Qi, cousin Ping Li... Cousin Ping Li heard... he heard that we also came to Zhuangzi, so he ran away."
"I accompanied Sister Yang Qi to Zhuangzi to look for him, but when he heard this, he ran away...Sister Yang Qi...what should we do?" Sun Liu Niang looked at Miss Yang Qi with a confused look.
Miss Yang Qi: "..."
"You mean, the prince and the girl came back just now? But when they knew we were in Zhuangzi, they ran away?" Miss Yang Qi asked after hearing this.
"Yes, yes." Sun Liu Niang nodded aggrievedly.
It must be Yang Qi, a bitch, who made cousin Ping Li dislike him, so he turned around and ran away when he heard the news. It must not be because of her, Sun Liu, definitely not!
Miss Yang Qi nodded, "That's it."
As she said this, Miss Yang Qi took out her handkerchief and covered her face, she was about to cry and said, "So my cousin dislikes me so much, wuwuwu... What on earth did I do wrong to make my cousin dislike me so much?
"
"Uuuuuuuuuuah...I don't want to stay here anymore, I want to go home..." Yang Qi covered her face and ran away, asking people to quickly put the luggage that had not been put down back into the carriage. She wanted to go home.
Sun Liu Niang, who watched Miss Yang Qi's series of operations: "..."
What's going on? What exactly does Yang Qi want to do?
