It has to be said that Hongyu really knows Mr. Xue very well. If she keeps complaining, Mr. Xue will not feel anything at all. However, hinting at the rumors behind people's back can directly hit Xue's pain point.
Ye Qinglan was just a concubine, but she easily kicked out the maid next to her aunt to do rough work. In the eyes of others, what would they think of her, the aunt's mother?
Xue's anger, which had been barely suppressed, surged into her heart again.
But now that the Zheng mother and daughter have made it clear that they support Ye Qinglan, no matter how dissatisfied she is, she can't get the ruby back...
Xue's expression changed again and again, and finally she regained her composure, and said calmly: "Okay, Hongyu, I understand everything you said. Don't cry yet."
Why is this reaction different from what she imagined? Hongyu felt inexplicably uneasy, and quickly wiped her tears to express her loyalty: "Madam, now that you are back, can this slave return to serve you? These days,
This slave girl thinks of you every day..."
"Sister Ning has taken a fancy to you, so just stay in Huancui Pavilion with peace of mind!" These light words were like a thunderbolt from the blue, shocking people for a long time.
Hongyu's mouth was open, and she looked at Mr. Xue blankly: "Madam..."
What does the madam mean by saying this? Does the madam want to swallow this idle breath? According to the madam's character, shouldn't she make a fuss in front of Mrs. Zheng and ask her to come back?
Naturally, Ms. Xue would not explain her plans and difficulties to a maid: "Sister Ning told me that I have agreed to give you to her. You will serve Miss Six well from now on."
Hong Yu finally realized that her wife no longer planned to take care of her. She was going to let her fend for herself in Huancui Pavilion!
Hongyu panicked and cried again. This time, the tears were genuine: "Madam, I have served you for several years, and it is hard work without merit. You can't let me abuse you..."
Mrs. Xue was not in the mood to listen to Hongyu crying here, and frowned a little impatiently: "What are you talking about? Who has done this to you? It's your blessing that Sister Ning likes you, stay well."
If you stay in Huancui Pavilion, if you cause any trouble and get punished, no one can control you."
Hong Yu's heart froze after hearing the last sentence. The wife said it very clearly. She would not care about herself anymore. How could this happen? Why is the wife's attitude like this? Doesn't the wife hate Miss Ten very much? Why not take advantage of the situation?
Take this opportunity to give Miss Ten a good meal?
Before Hongyu could figure out the reason, Mrs.
It was a coincidence that as soon as I left Hefeng Courtyard, I met Ye Qinglan who was walking leisurely. Who else could the maid following behind me be Hong Luan?
Hong Luan glanced at Hong Yu who was in a state of embarrassment, his heart skipped a beat, and he reflexively looked at Ye Qinglan.
Ye Qinglan was very calm and indifferent, and even glanced at Hongyu with a smile: "You came to ask mother to make the decision for you, has mother agreed to it?"
This indifferent smile turned out to be naked sarcasm and ridicule in Hong Yu's eyes.
Hongyu had suppressed her sullen resentment. No longer caring about the difference between master and servant, she blurted out: "What do you have to be proud of? You are just a married woman, but you really think you are a rich lady..."
"Shut up!" an angry voice suddenly sounded.
Hongyu's heart trembled, and when she saw Ye Yuanzhou's familiar figure, her heart skipped a beat. Although his wife didn't want to see Ye Qinglan, the young master had always been very kind to this concubine sister. He insulted her casually, but Ye Yuanzhou caught him. Today
Don't even think about it.
Ye Yuanzhou strode forward and slapped Hongyu without hesitation.
There was a crisp sound of "pop". There were deep five-finger prints on Hongyu's face. There was a burning pain on her face, and her vision quickly blurred.
Ye Yuanzhou's condensed voice sounded in Hong Yu's ears: "Get out! If I hear you wantonly insulting Lan'er behind your back again, I will never forgive you!"
Hongyu didn't even dare to raise her head and left crying.
Ye Yuanzhou and Ye Qinglan were left looking at each other.
Ye Yuanzhou was obviously really angry just now. The slap was merciless, and his palms were stinging. There was still anger in his eyes that had faded, but when he met Ye Qinglan's slightly complicated eyes, that anger immediately subsided.
It was completely clean. Instead, there was a hint of sweetness.
In fact, Lan'er doesn't have any feelings for him...
Ye Yuanzhou really thinks too much. Ye Qinglan really doesn't have any superfluous thoughts about him. Even without the bond of blood relationship between brother and sister, Ye Yuanzhou is not her type. What's more, after knowing about the grudges and entanglements in her previous life, she has no feelings for him.
Ye Yuanzhou only had four words left: Keep a respectful distance!
But Ye Yuanzhou's unhesitating action just now still touched Ye Qinglan. Putting aside Ye Yuanzhou's dark thoughts, he is actually a very good brother. If he didn't have those thoughts, he would be just a simple brother who loves and protects his sister.
good……
Ye Qinglan sighed secretly, but a grateful smile appeared on his face: "Thank you, brother, for taking this leisurely breath for me."
In front of the servants, Ye Yuanzhou acted like a normal brother, smiling gently and saying: "This Hongyu, when I was with my mother, I would often bully you at will. I taught you a lesson."
After several times, she still refuses to repent. This time is a lesson to her. If she dares to be disrespectful to you again in the future, you don’t have to do anything, just tell me."
If Ye Qinglan takes action against Hong Yu, it will only cause Xue's displeasure. Ye Yuanzhou is different. With his status, Xue will never do it even if he slaps Hong Yu, let alone slaps Hong Yu.
There is a word "no".
Ye Qinglan naturally knew this, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "That's not necessary, I can handle this little thing myself. I can't trouble my brother with everything."
Ye Yuanzhou stared at Ye Qinglan's pretty face, the affection in his heart overflowed in his chest, and said softly: "How can you be polite to me?" Although it was a normal tone, his bright and eager eyes inadvertently revealed who he was.
The secret of my heart.
The softness that had just arisen in Ye Qinglan's heart disappeared immediately, and her tone was polite and distant: "The eldest brother will soon study in the Imperial College, and will definitely live in the Imperial College in the future. I heard that the homework in the Imperial College is very tight, so eldest brother should just concentrate on his studies.
! I won’t trouble my brother for this little thing.”
He spoke politely and coldly, clearly putting others off.
Ye Yuanzhou was fully focused on her, so he could naturally sense her deliberate alienation, and he didn't know what it felt like. On impulse, he suddenly opened his mouth and said, "I've been away for so long, don't you think about me at all?"
Hong Luan was a little surprised and looked up at Ye Yuanzhou. When did the relationship between the young master and the young lady become so good?
Ruixue knew what was going on, and her heart suddenly rose to her throat. She quickly looked around and saw that no maids were passing by, so she felt a little more at ease.
Ye Qinglan frowned slightly, then relaxed, and said with a smile: "The elder brother has been away for so long, so naturally the younger sister misses her brother." It is very clear that it is the younger sister who misses her brother, and the rest is irrelevant.
Ye Yuanzhou's full of expectations were poured with cold water, his heart felt cold, and his smile was a little forced.
Ye Qinglan asked again: "By the way, brother, you usually do very well in your studies, why did you fail the Qiuwei exam this time?"
There was a flash of discomfort in Ye Yuanzhou's eyes, but he only said: "I was nervous when I entered the examination room. I forgot most of the things I remember clearly on weekdays. I didn't do a good job in the essay, so I didn't pass the exam. After I failed, my father and mother were very worried.
It’s uncomfortable. I don’t feel well either.”
He is simply lying!
Ye Qinglan's sharp eyes were comparable to a lie detector, and she keenly captured the subtle changes in Ye Yuanzhou's expression.
It seems that her previous guess was indeed correct. In order to return to the capital, Ye Yuanzhou deliberately missed it in autumn. The scientific examination is held every three years. If you miss this year, you will have to wait for another three years. And during these three years,
Ye Yuanzhou will always stay in the capital and appear in her life at any time...
I have to say that Ye Yuanzhou had really good intentions! He cruelly delayed his future for the sake of a girl.
If the two of them were not brother and sister, she would probably be moved by having such a suitor! But the fact is that her blood bond with him is an unchangeable fact. Ye Yuanzhou's infatuation is destined to fail.
.She cannot be moved or soften her heart.
"Does mother also agree that eldest brother will return to the capital?" Ye Qinglan asked seemingly casually. Xue knew that Ye Yuanzhou had strange thoughts towards her, how could she allow Ye Yuanzhou to return to the capital?
Ye Yuanzhou replied insincerely: "My mother was reluctant to let me come back, but for the sake of my studies, she finally nodded and agreed." After a pause, he added: "My father will return to Zhengzhou in a few days, and my mother will stay in the capital.
Won't leave."
Sure enough! How could Mr. Xue just let Ye Yuanzhou stay alone? He would definitely stay in the capital to "take care of" Ye Yuanzhou.
Ye Qinglan felt a little relieved. Mr. Xue cared more about Ye Yuanzhou's reputation than she did. As long as Ms. Xue was around, Ye Yuanzhou probably wouldn't have much chance to harass her.
Before Ye Yuanzhou could say anything else, a little maid came over with a smile: "Young Master, my wife has ordered your servant to ask you to come over and talk!"
Ye Yuanzhou reluctantly agreed, glanced at Ye Qinglan reluctantly, and then left.
Ye Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief. Great, Mr. Xue must have secretly ordered someone to pay attention to Ye Yuanzhou's every move. When he saw Ye Yuanzhou talking to her, he ordered someone to call Ye Yuanzhou away. In this way, it is not a bad thing for Mr. Xue to stay.
However, her leisurely days are coming to an end.
There is the shrewd and mean Xue Shi, the impetuous and willful Ye Qingfu, and the twisted Ye Yuanzhou. How can this life be pure? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, monthly vote, you
