Chapter 661: Cuscuta Cousin 25
Zhongcheng Building.
After watching the imperial concubine's entourage leave and never seeing her again, I
The men of the Fu family left as they had their own things to do. In the entire guest room, there were only Sheng Huan, the Duke's wife, and the Second Madam Fu.
"Sister-in-law, Ying'er, let's go back home too."
The room was quiet for a long time. After Madam Fu had calmed down, she looked at Sheng Huan and the Duke's wife.
Although the dishes were ordered, it was obvious that no one had eaten much.
Madam Fu also knew that they didn't speak just now because they wanted to take care of her feelings and stayed with her on purpose.
The Duke's wife looked at her sister-in-law's slightly red eyes and said, "It is a great joy for the imperial concubine to enter the palace. You should be happy."
Sheng Huan walked forward and hugged Madam Fu's arm. Seeing Madam Fu's bitter and sad face, she took out her handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of her eyes.
"Aunt, my cousin is a noble person. She will definitely become very rich."
Mrs. Fu Er smiled with tears in her eyes and said, "Yes, the imperial concubine is blessed."
She was obviously feeling better.
Seeing her like this, the Duke's wife teased her, "You are like this just after your daughter got married. I don't know how you will cry when Ying'er marries someone else."
Sheng Huan's fair face flushed when she heard that. Her almond-shaped eyes moved around, and she said shyly and coquettishly, "Aunt."
She called her Madam the Duke, following Fu Shirui's way of addressing her.
The Duke's wife was touched by the little girl's coquettish voice and said with a smile: "You little girls are the best. They are always shy when talking about this matter."
Seeing this, Madam Fu also burst into laughter and said, "This is something that will happen sooner or later. Ying'er, you don't have to be embarrassed. If you have anything you like, just tell your aunt. This is about the rest of your life, so you have to pick the one you like. If you tell me, your aunt will definitely find you a husband that you like."
"Aunt~"
Sheng Huan's face turned completely red. When she lowered her head, her innocent and soft eyes were tinged with the shyness of a little girl. She was truly a beauty made of water.
The two sisters-in-law looked at each other and liked her more and more. They thought to themselves, this girl is worthy of being their own, she is really good in every way.
After releasing his emotions, most of the depression in his heart caused by Fu Shirui entering the palace disappeared.
The three of them left the guest room, and the servants waiting outside bowed slightly.
The Duke's wife looked at Chang Ji for a moment, with a hint of doubt in her eyes. Why was Chang Ji still here? Even if he returned home now, he obviously didn't have to worry about driving.
Chang Ji had no idea what the Duke's wife was thinking, so he stood up and said, "Madam, Madam, Miss, the prince asked me to take the three masters back."
Chang Ji lowered his head while speaking, otherwise he was afraid that he would look at his cousin without paying attention.
Sheng Huan supported Madam Fu Er and said nothing, acting as if he was a transparent person.
"Sister-in-law, the prince is really considerate."
Madam Fu smiled and spoke as she thought of the prince, whose mind became more and more unpredictable and difficult to approach as he grew older.
The person left behind by the eldest nephew was Changji. It might not matter if it came to other people, but Changji was the prince's confidant, so leaving him behind obviously made a difference.
The Duke's wife was stunned, not knowing what she was thinking at that moment. When she heard Madam Fu's words, she came back to her senses instantly, but she still felt strange in her heart.
She knew that the prince was not without filial piety, but this filial piety at this moment made her instinctively feel strange. However, she also thought that she might be overthinking it, and smiled: "It is indeed thoughtful."
Several people walked out of the hall and headed towards the carriage.
After the Duke's wife and Madam Fu II got on the carriage, Sheng Huan was the last one to get on.
Furong helped her up, and the moment Sheng Huan lifted the car curtain, his eyes met those of a man standing by the window of a restaurant.
Xiao Ye Ze was dressed in red. He looked at the woman with the corners of his lips raised, looking nonchalant and free and easy.
Seeing this, Sheng Huan retracted his fingers slightly and pursed his lips. After all, he felt that he had seen this several times before, so he didn't hide this time.
She nodded gently towards the man in front of the window.
On the other side, Xiao Ye Ze thought that the woman would ignore him. When he got the response, he was stunned and his heart suddenly beat wildly.
When he wanted to respond, the woman had already entered the carriage. Her figure seemed to be a little fast, and he didn't know if it was intentional. The man held the golden hairpin in his hand and laughed happily.
-
at the same time.
On the other side, when Ji Yunxiu came out of the guest room, he just saw Sheng Huan's back as he got into the carriage.
His eyes flashed slightly.
She had dodged several plots. The Duke's Mansion really protected people very well.
Ji Yunxiu inexplicably thought of the several times he had met Master Fu before, his freezing eyes, and his ruthlessness in killing criminals. He always felt a little scared in his heart.
"Ji Yunxiu, what are you looking at?!"
Song Yuwan also went out today. She had an unhappy time in Ji's house. Not only that, she found out on the second day after her marriage that Ji Yunxiu had five concubines.
None of these five women were good people. Of course, Madam Ji was the worst to her. She didn't hide her dissatisfaction and went against her directly.
She was almost going crazy. After finally getting out of the house, she saw Ji Yunxiu staring at Sheng Huan's back. She felt aggrieved and angry.
He rushed up directly.
Ji Yunxiu frowned when he saw Song Yuwan: "Why are you here?"
"Who were you looking at just now?!" Song Yuwan stared at him.
"I didn't look at anyone."
Song Yuwan was angry.
"Wan'er." Ji Yunxiu held her hand, holding back his impatience: "Don't be angry, I have business to attend to."
"Let's go back home." Ji Yunxiu grabbed Song Yuwan.
[Just now, Ji Yunxiu was obviously looking at his white moonlight.]
[Bai Yueguang is getting more and more beautiful. She looks so charming and pitiful, like an innocent sheep. I really want to bully her until she cries.]
[Hey, I'm a pervert!]
When Song Yuwan glanced at the barrage of comments, she became even angrier. When she was pulled away by Ji Yunxiu, she couldn't help but look back at the carriage that had already left, with murderous intent in her eyes.
Ji Yunxiu had sharp eyes and pretended not to see it even though he saw it. He did like the cousin from Duke Fu's mansion a little bit, and he also thought about taking her into the mansion as a concubine after her reputation was ruined. After all, who doesn't like a beautiful person?
However, thinking about the fact that his plans had failed several times, he felt a little angry.
Ji Yunxiu glanced at Song Yuwan calmly, hoping that his wife would not let him down.
-
night.
Sheng Huan went to bed early today.
Let’s talk about Duke Xiao’s mansion.
As soon as Xiao Ye Ze came back, he saw the wife of Duke Xiao waiting outside his yard.
"Mother." Xiao Ye Ze raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why are you here?"
Madam Xiao Guogong picked up the album and came over: "You are already an adult, when are you going to get married? There is no one to take care of you in the house."
"Have a quick look at these albums. They are all picked out by your mother. Take a look and see if there is anything you like. If so, your mother will send someone to propose marriage to you someday."
At this moment, a face flashed through Xiao Ye Ze's mind. He paused and yawned lazily: "This matter is meaningless, mother, go back."
He walked past the wife of Duke Xiao.
"Xiao Ye Ze!" Lady Xiao, the Duke's wife, almost broke her voice when she saw this.
Xiao Ye Ze paused and turned back. The smile on his face was gone. In the dark night, he clenched the golden hairpin in his hand, and his eyebrows were stained with cold broken ice:
"Mother, if I marry a wife in this state, I will bring disaster to others."
After saying this, he strode away.
When Lady Xiao heard this, tears instantly burst out of her eyes. She looked at her son's back without turning his head, and suddenly thought of what Doctor Hao had said, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably.
