The next morning, Chu Yunli inevitably got up late. Fortunately, Yao's side didn't need to say hello in the morning. What he wanted was for her to go in the afternoon.
When he went there in the afternoon, Xu Yan'er politely took off the mallet in his hand, wrapped it twice, and left earlier than Chu Yunli. "Mom, my daughter-in-law is much better. Can you please let your husband come back?"
Yes, Qin Qiyi knelt all day and night last night and is still there now. Moreover, Mrs. Yao asked her mother-in-law to guard the door and not let anyone in. Except for the necessary steamed buns and water, she didn't even give her a quilt. You know
It's late autumn now. It's fine during the day, but at night the water outside will freeze.
Needless to say, Qin Qiyi probably froze last night.
"In this case, let the second child go back." Yao said in a light tone, "I believe that after this time, he will never dare to do something to you again in the future."
Xu Yaner: "..." No matter how angry she was, she had to endure it. Not only that, she also wanted to thank Yao for her blessing.
Yao didn't take it seriously, waved his hand and said, "The second brother is probably kneeling too much. You go back and take care of him. Your hand is injured again, so you don't need to serve me today."
It's like sending a maid away.
Xu Yan'er endured her anger, but did not dare to argue anymore. Fu Shen left, and before leaving, she glared at Chu Yunli fiercely.
In the past few days since she came in, Chu Yunli was used to this kind of look, and her expression was as usual, but the superior Yao sneered, "It seems that she still hasn't learned her lesson."
Hearing this, Chu Yunli laughed and said, "Thank you, mother, for venting my anger."
Mr. Yao looked her up and down, his eyes were very kind, "It would be better if you gave birth to a grandson for me sooner."
Chu Yunli lowered her head and her ears turned red.
She didn't think it was the Yao family who found someone to keep an eye on Shao'an Yuan, but he probably saw the clues from her.
Over there, Qin Qiyi was taken out of the ancestral hall, went back to wash up, had a few bites, and then packed up and returned to the uncle's house.
It would be a lie to say that he is not angry. If Mrs. Yao does not relent, and if Xu Yaner still does not relent after begging for mercy, he will kneel down in the ancestral hall today, and the uncle's house will come to question him.
What's the meaning?
My son-in-law wants to come home. If you ask him to kneel in the ancestral hall, don't you think about maintaining this relationship? It's not important to come home. Are you looking down on the uncle's house or something?
But after noon, Mrs. Yao relented and asked someone to let him out, but he had to go to the uncle's house.
In the carriage, Qin Qiyi looked not very good. Xu Yaner secretly glanced at him several times, but finally couldn't help it and spoke first, "After my mother told me that I was injured, my mother would not insist on my service."
Qin Qiyi endured it, but still couldn't hold it back, "Then why did you say that your injury was because of me?"
In fact, Xu Yan'er felt aggrieved about this matter, "I was just saying it smoothly. Besides, how could I have known that if a young couple quarreled, your mother would punish you by kneeling in the ancestral hall? If you ask me, she was deliberately looking for opportunities to deal with you. A legitimate mother has a certain attitude towards a concubine.
Aren’t those generous people just looking for opportunities to deal with them? Besides, my mother doesn’t like me either.”
"You don't know, she made that stinky girl Zidie sit there and let me serve her with my own hands, which turned me into a serving girl. I haven't even served my parents since I was a child." Although she just got married.
Talking about these grievances for two days, Xu Yaner felt that he could not finish them in three days and three nights, "Also, we don't have a small kitchen in the yard, and the food is already half cold when it is delivered. If you want to eat red bean snacks, you have to
Special money is given to them to make another one. If this were in the uncle's house, the food I could eat could be taken anytime, anywhere..."
Qin Qiyi had just come out of the ancestral hall, and his knees were still stiff. When he heard her complain, no matter how good-tempered he was, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you blaming me for not being of high enough status? I can't give you a good life?"
Xu Yaner was silent, "I don't know your status in the Duke's Mansion, it's so... embarrassing."
It's just embarrassing. It can be said that except for Duke Li and Aunt Yue, the other masters in the mansion ignore him. Even if you can afford to raise him, you won't get much attention. When Xu Yan'er was not married, then
She had to take care of her food, clothing, clothing, and even her mood. When she got here, she was far from what she expected from the couple she imagined, Qin Se and Ming. Not to mention anything else, just basic necessities, food, housing, transportation, and serving the Yao family, she couldn't accept any of it.
"I have wronged you." Qin Qiyi was silent for a moment and reached out to hold her hand, "Yan'er, I am happy for you. I feel aggrieved after hearing what you have suffered, but this is my life. Back then
I'm fine with you, and I never thought about marrying you, just because of my status in the mansion. This is how I grew up."
He lowered his head slightly, and his whole body was slumped and weak. He looked much darker and a bit pitiful. Xu Yaner's heart softened immediately, and she held his hand with her backhand, "There must be a way."
Speaking of ways, she remembered Yu's words yesterday and tentatively suggested, "How about we move back to the uncle's house? My parents will definitely not let us be wronged."
Qin Qiyi looked at her in surprise, "Why do you have such thoughts?"
"The Duke's Mansion is too annoying." Xu Yan'er frowned slightly, "Not so in the Duke's Mansion. No one in the Mansion will offend me. I don't have to wait for people to eat. I can greet you in the morning and evening whenever I want..."
The more she talked, the more excited she became, "Okay, I'll tell my mother about it later."
"No!" Qin Qiyi refused.
Seeing Xu Yan'er stunned, he held her hand tightly and explained, "The Duke's Mansion is my home, and besides, there is my aunt, so how can I leave her and run away to have a good time? Besides, while a man is still alive, he should face difficulties and face them.
The uncle's house must be comfortable, but I can't!"
When he said these words, his eyes were shining. Xu Yaner's eyes were filled with stars, "Okay, I'll accompany you."
Qin Qiyi's eyes brightened, "I knew Yan'er was good to me. Then, if my father-in-law and mother-in-law ask about our time in the Duke's Mansion later..."
"I just said everything is fine!" Xu Yaner answered quickly, and the two looked at each other with affection.
In the main courtyard of the Duke's Mansion, Mrs. Yao pulled Chu Yunli and asked in a low voice, "I heard that you bought a lot of quilts and thick clothes and went to the suburbs?"
"Yes." Chu Yunli felt that there was nothing wrong with this. "Even if one less person dies from frostbite, it would be good. I also want to buy some medicinal materials to dispel the cold, and set up a pot next to the porridge to dispel the cold.
medicine."
Mr. Yao patted her hand and said, "You are a kind-hearted child."
Chu Yunli was a little embarrassed, "Anyway, the money is not mine." Although the money belonged to the uncle's house, if she squandered it on herself, not to mention others, she would look down on herself, so it would be best to use it to save others.
.
"I heard that you are reading medical books recently?" Yao asked again.
"Look, I also plan to open a medical clinic." Chu Yunli said calmly.
The soft color in Yao's eyes became darker, "It's good. If you need anything, you can tell me."
"Thank you, mother." Chu Yunli said in a serious tone, "I am lucky to have met you."
Feng Shaoan was born in a good family these few times, but his biological mother, although she did not agree with him marrying a daughter-in-law of low status at first, she would compromise in the end and would not come up with bad ideas to separate the two. These days
My mother-in-law is actually quite nice.
She was in a daze, wondering if there was a time when their identities were switched.
Yao recognized her, not just verbally caring about her. Recently, no matter which of the noble families in the capital had happy events, they would take her with them. As time went by, everyone was surprised at her identity at first, but gradually they got used to it.
Of course, there are rumors outside that although the uncle's house admits that she is the legitimate daughter of the uncle's house, she is actually just a second-class maid in the house. In fact, not many people believe it. A large number of people think that this Xu
Die'er is probably the child left behind by Uncle Ding'an from his romantic affair. He just fooled his wife and married her off with a large dowry.
That batch of dowry is still very convincing. Who gives a richer dowry to their second-class girl than to their first-class daughter? It’s not like there’s something wrong with their brains!
All in all, this Xu Die'er could never be as simple as a girl. With these thoughts, and Yao family praising her everywhere, as time went by, no one had any doubts about the identity of the prince's wife.
In contrast, Xu Yaner's life was not so easy. It was true that she escaped from marriage. Although she did not know the inside story of the marriage change, it was not a secret that she and Qin Qiyi had been in contact earlier. Later, her "sister" became the crown prince's wife, and the normal situation was stable.
There is no need for a marriage between the Prince's Mansion and Duke Li's Mansion, but the fact is that the marriage is still done. There is no other reason except that the two of them are in love and want their parents to be happy at home.
It is worth mentioning that when Mrs. Yao went out to congratulate her, she took Chu Yunli with her as her daughter-in-law. This was her due. After all, she was the future wife of the duke. However, Xu Yan'er was just a concubine's wife. She had not yet received a royal decree and had to wait for Qin Qiyi.
Only after joining the job can he be appointed. In this case, whether Yao will take her with him or not depends on the situation.
There are some places that are not suitable for a concubine's daughter-in-law or a concubine's daughter to go, but sometimes her presence is particularly needed. For example, when a concubine's son is having a baby, or a concubine's daughter is getting married, in such cases, Yao will not go, so she might as well go there.
Let her go.
Xu Yaner belatedly discovered that most of the people she interacted with were concubine children who were not favored by the family. Especially once, her family friend's concubine sister, who had not dared to get close to her before, actually needed her to congratulate her. Her front feet were facing each other.
That girl Chu Yunli was flattering and turned to face her with a different face.
She also realized that between two people, it is not just me who likes you, but you who also like me, we can live a smooth life together.
In the blink of an eye, winter came, the weather was cold, and the plum blossoms bloomed in the plum garden of the Duke's Mansion. Qin Shao had a rest that day and took her to enjoy the plum blossoms.
The two of them were walking in the garden, with their eyebrows and eyes filled with affection among the red plum trees. In the pavilion not far away, Xu Yaner stared blankly, especially when he saw the soft color between Qin Shao's eyebrows and eyes, he felt a little dazed.
She and Qin Shao had been engaged since they were young, and she had known since she was a child that her fiancé was both civil and military, and he was also the heir apparent of the Duke of Guo. Of course, she didn't think that the heir of the Duke of Guo was anything special before. Wasn't her eldest brother also the heir?
Qin Shao treated others coldly and indifferently. The two of them had met at other parties' banquets before. At first, she didn't dislike him so much, but when did she start not liking him?
Seeing the tenderness in his eyebrows, she felt a little jealous. Would he be like this to anyone who was his wife?
This tenderness should have been hers! Thinking of this, she walked over slowly, walked behind the two of them, and said in a soft voice, "Prince?"
A soft voice sounded from behind. Chu Yunli turned around and saw Xu Yan'er in a bright red cloak. The white hair on the edge of the cloak made her skin as white as jade, which was a bit more translucent than the crystal icicles on the branches.
"Is something wrong?" Qin Shao said in a cold tone, looked at Fulai beside him, and asked in a deep voice, "Didn't you say there is no one in Meiyuan?"
The author has something to say: See you at nine o'clock.
