All Hail Cousin Brother

The courtyard next to the main courtyard is also pretty good, but it can't compare to the Shuixie Pavilion that diverts water into the courtyard, and the lotus shines on the water. Yang Shuwan is not willing to agree: "Old lady, the Shuixie courtyard hides the wind and absorbs the water, and the scenery is unique. It is the top Fengshui in the house." The best and most nurturing place, Jiajia is not in good health, wouldn't it be better to live in it?"

Old Madam Yu paused for a while while twisting the Buddha beads, and raised her eyes to look at her: "Do you still remember how the Waterside Pavilion came to be?"

Yang Shuwan's face froze, and the smile on her face became forced.

Old Madam Yu said softly, "It was repaired with money from Mrs. Xie."

"It's not that Jiajia is in poor health..." Yang Shuwan squeezed the veil tightly in her hand. The Xie family has been dead for many years, and now she is the head of the Yu Mansion, so why can't her Jiajia live in the Waterside Pavilion?

The words were so clear that Mrs. Yang didn't know what to say, so Mrs. Yu frowned, "Sister Jia's body is not good, and the family has been raising her with the best medicine, and she has never done her any harm, but... ..."

The "but" at the end made Yang Shuwan's eyelids twitch.

really!

Madam Yu changed the subject, while twisting the Buddhist beads: "Yaoyao is the eldest daughter of the original spouse, and no one in the house can surpass her."

Yang Shuwan's face turned miserable.

Thinking of the day she married into the Yu Mansion, because the Xie family was still within a hundred days, the wedding was not in accordance with the etiquette, and everything was kept simple. She wore a simple wedding dress and a small white flower on her hair, and walked into the gate of the Yu Mansion silently and low-key all the way. .

In the evening, Yu Zongzheng entered the room and took off her hijab, drank a glass of wine with her, and then went to the study, because the wife of the original wife was still in the 100-day filial piety and could not consummate the house.

Early the next morning, she went to pay her respects to Mrs. Yu, and Nanny Liu sat on the main seat with Xie's tablet in her arms. As her stepwife, after serving tea to the old lady, she had to kneel and kowtow to her original wife, and was a concubine. present.

Mrs. Xie is the first wife, and she is the stepmother.

So Xie was a head shorter.

Xie's daughter, Yu Youyao, is the legitimate eldest daughter of the original spouse.

Her daughter Yu Jianjia is also a descendant, but in serious comparison, she is still a head behind Yu Youyao.

Early the next morning, Shuixie Pavilion was changed to "Tiaoyu Courtyard", which couldn't be more obvious.

Thinking of this, Yang Shuwan's resentment exploded: "Yu Youyao is a little bastard, why don't you just die."

Nanny Li on the side was startled, and rushed to the window, stretched her head to look outside, and found that there was no one in the yard, she was relieved, shrank her head in, and closed the window tightly.

The third lady Yu Jianjia stood in front of the book table in the "Huan Huan Yuan" next door, in plain white clothes, with one hand lightly holding a wide sleeve, and the other hand holding a pen. On the white rice paper, rows of hairpin flowers in lower script were graceful and lively, like flower arrangement dancers, The low-profile hibiscus is like a beautiful woman on the stage, and the fairy's shadow.

What she wrote was the third chapter of "The Analects of Women" taught by today's female teacher, Xueli!

"As a woman, you should know the etiquette. When the female guests pass by, arrange the seats. Straighten the clothes and walk slowly. Hold your hands and whisper, please pass the court."

"When the greetings are clear, start from the beginning. Answer questions attentively, speak softly. Prepare tea soup, greet and hand it over. Don't learn from others and ignore yourself."

"..."

Fen Xiang, the big maid beside Yu Jianjia, was still indignant: "Why is the old madam so favoritism?"

The eldest lady is arrogant and domineering, with a fat head and pig brain.

And the young lady is better than her in appearance, talent and learning, and she is better than her in learning rules and manners, and her temperament and etiquette are also a few blocks away from her.

I really don't understand what the old lady was thinking, she didn't hurt the pearls and jade, but hurt the fish-eye beads instead.

Yu Jianjia paused for a moment, turned the corner of his mouth lightly, and said with a smile in his voice, "Big sister has no mother education since she was a child, so she is different from me."

Ruanrourou's words did not contain any malice, but simply stated a fact that the old lady loved Yu Youyao because Yu Youyao lost her mother, and everyone knew that.

Fennel rolled her eyes: "This is no motherhood,

Isn't that uneducated? No wonder the old lady wanted to find her aunt in the palace to raise her. "

After hearing this, Yu Jianjia raised his eyes and glanced at Fennel, with deep meaning on the corners of his mouth: "Eldest sister is not young anymore, she really should learn some rules, marry a rich family, and there are still five not to marry, one of which is, A widow and eldest daughter don’t marry, and there is no religious precept, and my grandmother loves her eldest sister, so naturally she has to make more plans for her.”

A sentence that seemed to be casual, but the speaker was unintentional, and the listener was interested. Fen Xiang suddenly realized: "Isn't the young lady just a widow and the eldest daughter? I can't blame the old lady for hiring an aunt from the palace to educate the young lady. Afterwards, you won’t be able to match with a good family.”

Yu Jianjia frowned slightly, and scolded softly: "Shut up, how can you say that!"

Fennel slapped the ice cream before realizing that she had made a slip of the tongue. With a "plop", she knelt on the ground and hurriedly said she didn't dare.

The eldest lady is young, and she doesn't blink when she hits people, so it can be seen that she is cruel. If the eldest lady knows this, thirty boards are still a little less.

Yu Jianjia seemed to be annoyed, and pinched the veil and coughed lightly twice, her face was also blushing: "I am a little weaker, thinking of how hard you usually serve, I can't bear to be too harsh on you in my spare time. I'm used to losing my temper and gossiping in front of me. If my grandma finds out that my master is not strict with me, I will die, and you will inevitably hit 30 boards and sell it. "

After hearing this, Fenix ​​realized that she had almost hurt the young lady, and felt even more guilty. She raised her hand and slapped herself twice, making a "slap" on her face: "Everyone It's the servant girl's fault, please don't be angry, Miss, be careful to get angry."

Yu Jianjia coughed twice, and said in a hoarse voice, "What are you doing? I was angry with you, but I didn't teach you to hit yourself. I was worried that you would follow in Zhizi's footsteps by being so outspoken. Our master and servant for many years will be cut off."

After hearing this, Fenix ​​was moved to tears when she thought of Zhizi's end, "Your servant will know that Miss is the kindest."

Yu Jianjia seemed a little tired: "Get up, let's forget about it this time, and don't let it go lightly next time."

Fennel hurriedly got up from the ground, helped Yu Jianjia into the inner room, and poured a glass of water for Yu Jianjia.

Yu Jianjia took a sip of water, as if worried, and said again: "Grandmother found an aunt in the palace for eldest sister. This is a good thing. They are all sisters in the family. Presumably eldest sister will not Do you mind if my fourth sister and I go to her yard and learn the rules with my aunt, so that I will stop chewing my tongue in the future."

Fennel's eyes flickered a few times, and she learned the rules together, and the young lady figured it out.

After the waitress lay down, Fennel found a little maid in the room, bowed her head and whispered a few words.

The girl quickly ran out of the Huan Courtyard and went to Qingqiu Courtyard.
