There is Room For the Poor Daughter

Zhu Xiuyun's foot was fine, but a wound was cut by a fragment of the pottery pot. Seeing that there was a lot of blood, it didn't really matter.

After Yan Zhigao ordered his servants to take Zhu Jiaoyu and his daughter home in a carriage, he turned around and went to Songheyuan.

Mrs. Yan knew that Yan Zhigao slapped her precious granddaughter, and she could still sit still. After asking about the incident, she knew that it was related to the people of Shuangxinyuan. Auntie.

The old lady didn't do anything, didn't ask anything, just let Concubine Lin kneel in the yard.

At this moment, Concubine Lin has been kneeling for more than half an hour.

When Yan Zhigao hurried over, Concubine Lin's face turned pale.

"Mother, what are you doing?"

Mrs. Yan looked at Yan Zhigao with a sneer: "Can you beat my granddaughter without asking why? Can't I make your concubine kneel? Look at you, I feel bad for you. It's so ruthless, if you want to beat it, Daohua's face is so swollen that she can't see anyone."

Saying that, the old lady couldn't help but shed tears.

"Ever since I was a child, I have been reluctant to touch rice flowers. Jiaodidi's daughter, you beat her in front of so many people. How can you let her see people in the future? You unconscionable fellow."

Seeing the old mother crying, Yan Zhigao had a very severe headache, and quickly knelt on the ground: "Mother, I beat Daohua because Daohua should be beaten."

Mrs. Yan quickly took over the words: "I asked Lin to kneel, that's why she should kneel, she made my old lady unhappy!"

Yan Zhigao was helpless: "Mother, can you stop talking nonsense?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Yan stood up abruptly, pointed at Yan Zhigao with trembling and said in pain, "Yan Zhigao, do you want to have a concubine now, and don't even want your own mother? "

Seeing that the old lady was so angry, Yan Zhigao didn't dare to say anything exciting, and his tone became weak: "Mother, don't be angry, it's your son who said the wrong thing, you can beat or scold you, don't worry. Don't be mad at yourself."

Sun Ma was also afraid that the old lady would be angry, so she quickly helped the old lady to sit down: "Old lady, don't worry, if you have something to say, let's talk to the master."

Mrs. Yan's breath became smoother, but her face was still very ugly. She looked at Yan Zhigao coldly: "I ask you, why do you want to play rice flowers?"

Yan Zhigao: "Daohua injured the girl of Zhu Jiaoyu's family with a flowerpot. If I had to give Zhu Jiaoyu an explanation, would Zhu Jiaoyu's family give up?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Yan couldn't help crying again: "So, in order to appease your subordinates, you beat my Daohua so hard? She's only 9 years old, how can she withstand such a beating?"

Yan Zhigao thought of the red mark on the eldest daughter's face, and felt a little uncomfortable on his face.

Mrs. Yan held back her tears: "I know Daohua's character best. She can't use a flowerpot to smash people. You say, who said this slandering Daohua?"

Yan Zhigao was stunned for a moment. The words were said by Yishuang. Of course, he did not think that Yishuang had lied. In his eyes, Yishuang had always been a well-behaved and sensible girl. It was impossible for him to slander the elder sister. come.

Seeing that the eldest son was silent, Mrs. Yan didn't know that he was defending Yan Yishuang. Thinking of Daohua who was beaten, she was disappointed for a while.

"Go, call over the three girls who were in the pavilion at the time." The old lady said to Sun Ma.

Mother Sun nodded and walked out immediately.

Soon, Yan Yishuang, Yan Yile, and Yan Yihuan were brought into the house.

After such a big incident, everyone in the Yan family, except Daohua who was beaten, and Mrs. Li, who was taking care of Daohua, gathered in the old lady's yard.

As soon as the three girls entered the room, they saw Yan Zhigao kneeling on the ground, and immediately knelt down.

Mrs. Yan's face was condensed: "Yishuang, grandma asked you, why do you say that it was your elder sister who smashed Zhu's girl's foot?"

Yan Yishuang seemed a little frightened, and looked at Yan Zhigao, who was shivering.

"Snapped!"

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Yan slapped the table with a slap: "I ask you a question, what do you think your father does? Could it be that the old lady can still eat you?"

Yan Yishuang was so frightened that she began to cry in a low voice. She didn't know that things would become so big. At that time, she received a signal from her little uncle, and she didn't know what it meant, so she said those words instinctively.

She really didn't expect her father to hit her big sister.

Yan Yile and Yan Yihuan were also too frightened and shrank aside.

Seeing her little daughter cry, Yan Zhigao's heart ached immediately: "Mother, if you have something to say, you can scare Yishuang."

Mrs. Yan was angrily laughed: "I just asked her a question, and you think she was frightened. Then you slapped Daohua in the face, did you ever think she would be frightened?"

Yan Zhigao looked a little embarrassed: "Daohua won't be frightened, mother, you didn't see it, she dared to talk back to me at that time. Saying that you don't want to be Yan's parent's daughter, listen, it's all What kind of outrageous words?"

Mrs. Yan was stunned for a moment: "Daohua really said that?"

Yan Zhigao nodded: "Of course, mother, Daohua is too stubborn, no matter what, don't favor her blindly. Look at her now, where does she look like an elder sister?"

Mrs. Yan looked at Yan Zhigao lightly, just looked at it like that, without saying a word, she kept looking down at Yan Zhigao.

Mrs. Yan didn't want to pay attention to her eldest son anymore, and turned to look at Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile: "Yihuan, Yile, you two were also in the pavilion at the time, and saw your eldest sister smashing the Zhu family girl with a flower pot. already?"

When Yan Yihuan heard the old lady ask them, her body trembled. Just as she was about to say something, she was preempted by Yan Yile by the side.

"Grandmother, we did see the eldest sister smashing the Zhu family girl with a flower pot."

As soon as these words came out, Yan Yile felt that Mrs. Yan's eyes instantly turned into sharp blades, and she shot straight at her, causing her to lower her head immediately.

Yan Zhigao didn't know why, when Yan Yile confirmed that Daohua smashed people with flower pots, he was secretly relieved. He just wanted to say that since the matter has been figured out, let the three girls get up. Seeing the cold eyes of the old mother.

Mrs. Yan watched the four people on the ground silently for a long time: "Very good, you are all doing well!" After speaking, she closed her eyes, as if she didn't want to see the four of them.

Yan Zhigao looked at Mrs. Yan and wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.

The four of them knelt like that.

After a quarter of an hour, Sun Ma stood up: "Master, the old lady is going to rest, you can go back."

Only then did Yan Zhigao stand up with the three girls, and said to Sun Ma, "Take care of the old lady." After speaking, he left.

As soon as the four of them left, Madam Yan opened her eyes, and when she heard that the eldest son was out, she asked Aunt Lin to get up, and then dismissed the rest of the people in the courtyard.

"Once this person's heart is biased, no one can pull it back!"

After being silent for a while, Mrs. Yan sighed again: "Daohua and Zhigao, the father and daughter, must have been enemies in their previous lives!"

Second room.

Yan Zhiyuan and Sun took Yan Yile, Yan Yihuan, and Yan Wenjie back to their yard. As soon as they entered the room, Sun immediately looked at Yihuan and Yile and asked, "It's really Zhu who smashed rice flowers in a flowerpot. girl?"

Under the stare of her mother, Yan Yile shrank her neck, and Yan Yihuan also hesitated.

At this moment, Yan Zhiyuan and the Sun Clan, who are very talented, still don't know the answer.

In fact, as early as in the pavilion, Yan Zhiyuan knew that something was wrong. His eldest niece's eyes were too clean, and there was a Master Lin standing next to him.

Sun shi hated the iron and tapped Yan Yile's forehead: "You guys, you're really going to piss me off, my mother didn't tell you early, but you don't want to participate in the battle between the main courtyard and the Shuangxin courtyard. go in?"

Yan Yile pouted, "I don't like eldest sister. When she came, auntie didn't even want to give us a few pieces of material."

Sun's anger turned back and laughed: "You have shallow eyelids, you have offended the main courtyard badly now, and don't want any more material in the future."

Seeing that his mother was so angry, Yan Wenjie disapproved: "Mother, look at you in a hurry, what's the matter? Yan Yishuang is in charge of the matter. Even if the aunt wants to settle the bill, she can't find us."

"Besides, the uncle is protecting the Shuangxinyuan so much now. It is not known whether the uncle can settle the account in the autumn. You, don't worry about it here."

Mr. Sun looked at Yan Zhiyuan, and Yan Zhiyuan nodded.

The attitude of the elder brother is obvious. Even if Daohua is really wrong for what happened today, the elder brother will protect Shuangxinyuan.

Mrs Sun didn't say anything, but she still said to Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile, "You know how old you are, so you know you're lying. Go and copy me ten times."

Yan Yile and Yan Yihuan immediately lost their faces and went back to the room sullenly.

Three bedrooms.

Yan Zhiqiang and Mrs Wu waited anxiously in the room, and when they saw Yan Wentao coming back, they pulled them away and asked, "How is Daohua?"

Yan Wentao shook his head and did not speak.

Wu Shi was so anxious: "You are talking, what do you mean by shaking your head?"

Yan Wentao muttered: "Daohua didn't cry."

Hearing this, Mrs Wu breathed a sigh of relief, but Yan Zhiqiang frowned: "Daohua has a pimple in her heart for eldest brother."

"Ah?" Wu Shi was taken aback.

Yan Wentao agreed: "Isn't it true, if Daohua cried, it would be fine, but she didn't react, she must be ruthless."

Wu Shi immediately patted his son's head: "What nonsense, your uncle did something wrong today, but it is only right for Lao Tzu to beat his son, how can he hate him just because of this?"

Yan Wentao: "Mother, you don't know Daohua, and Daohua is willing to make trouble with you, that means she still cares about you; but one day, if she doesn't want to care about you, it means, where are you? It's all gone."

He grew up with Daohua, and he saw her temperament really.

The uncle's slap was not light, but Daohua didn't say a word. She was afraid that she was completely disappointed with the uncle.

Wu sighed and said, "Look at what's going on here, it's going to be New Year's Eve soon."

Yan Wentao snorted coldly: "Shuangxinyuan is all to blame for this matter. When I was listening to operas and books with Daohua, Daohua said that having too many wives and concubines is the root cause of family chaos, as expected."

Yan Zhiyuan glared at his son: "Tell me a few words less, the matter of your uncle, you are a junior who can talk about it? Go back to sleep!"

When his son was gone, Yan Zhiyuan said to Mrs Wu: "These days, you should go to the main courtyard to see the rice flowers, that girl loves to be on the horns, don't really have a relationship with the big brother, that's just like a double heart. Court's will."

Wu shi nodded and complained: "Big brother is really good at it. He didn't raise it by his side, and it really doesn't feel bad."

"You don't have to say a few words."

main courtyard.

Mrs. Li wiped her tears and returned to the main room after Daohua fell asleep.

Back in the room, he didn't see Yan Zhigao, his heart was extremely cold.

"Go, close the courtyard door. Starting from today, if Master Hai Shi still doesn't come back in the future, he will lock the courtyard door."

Pingtong looked a little hesitant.

Since the wife married the master, she has never locked the door of the courtyard. Even if the master went to the Shuangxin Courtyard, the main courtyard is reserved for the master, which means that the master can come back at any time.

But today, the master slapped the eldest girl, hurting the eldest girl and the wife's heart at the same time.

Ping Tong hesitated, but Ping Xiao had no worries, picked up the key and went to lock the courtyard door.

The main courtyard was not kept, and it was quickly known by all parties, but Yan Zhigao only learned about it on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month when he was on holiday.

In the past few days, in order to appease Aunt Lin, who was punished by Mrs. Yan for kneeling, he has been resting in the Shuangxin Courtyard. If he hadn't discussed with Mrs. Li tonight about entertaining his colleagues, he might have to wait until the Chinese New Year before returning to the main courtyard. .

Looking at the closed main courtyard, Yan Zhigao was dumbfounded.

He was so angry that he wanted to knock on the door, but he was afraid that the movement would be too loud, which would disturb others and embarrass himself.
