"Princess Yuyang is my aunt, and my father is the brother of her compatriot, and he is the Prince of Qingping County personally named by His Majesty."
In fact, Zhou Yunshu had some suspicions when the housekeeper of the Yang Mansion called Du Huairou her cousin, but when Du Huairou said it, she was still a little surprised.
The younger brother of Princess Yuyang is a famous dandy, and he is also famous for having many heirs.
Although there are many children, most of their biological mothers have poor backgrounds, so few nobles from aristocratic families are willing to marry the Qingping County Prince.
Those with high family status did not care about the children of Prince Qingping, but Prince Qingping, who had a low family background, looked down upon them.
As a result, Prince Qingping had a group of daughters who were of marriageable age, but they became old maids when they were waiting for marriage.
Only three of the dozen daughters of Prince Qingping were married off, but I don't know which one of them Du Huairou was.
Fortunately, Du Huairou had no intention of betraying her. She said directly: "My mother is the Jiang family of Nanzhou, and I am the second daughter of the prince of Qingping County."
"As for why I ended up like this." Du Huairou clasped the armrest of the chair with her right hand and said in a calm tone: "It's because my brother-in-law doesn't want me to go back to the prince's palace to save my biological brother."
Zhou Yunshu sighed inwardly, as expected, it was the secrets of these wealthy families again.
But yes, it is not unusual for many wealthy families like this to have dog-eat-dog situations.
Especially since this incident happened at the home of Prince Qingping, whose back house was in chaos.
You must know that if Prince Qingping dies, the only person who can inherit the title and property of Prince Qingping is his legitimate son.
Only when the legitimate son dies can it be the turn of the bastard son of the family.
In Prince Qingping's chaotic home, if it weren't for Jiang's unmarried third daughter and his loyal servants to take care of him, Prince Qingping's six-year-old legitimate son would have died long ago.
This time Du Huairou brought her only child home, firstly to support her brother who was suddenly poisoned, and secondly to attend Princess Yuyang's birthday banquet with people from the Prince's Palace.
Prince Qingping's first wife was not favored by him in the first place. If Du Huairou didn't hug her aunt's thigh tightly, I'm afraid her younger brother would really die in the Prince's Mansion.
"What kind of person do you think Princess Yuyang is."
Zhou Yunshu did not inquire into Du Huairou's family affairs, but asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with what she had said before.
Although Du Huairou felt a little strange in her heart, she still said: "Although there are rumors outside that my aunt is arrogant and unreasonable. However, I think she is a person who has a clear sense of grudges and grudges, has an overall view of the situation, and is even a little naive."
"Innocent?"
Du Huairou nodded, "Believe in love."
Zhou Yunshu rubbed her fingertips. It seemed that Du Huairou had discovered something while living in Yang Mansion these days.
"I do have one thing I need you to do. Give Princess Yuyang a blow on the head."
Du Huairou was stunned: "...will you see blood today?"
Zhou Yunshu: "..."
Well, I blame her for not being able to express herself clearly.
"I don't really want to give her a stick." Zhou Yunshu explained, feeling a little surprised at how convinced Du Huairou was of her own words. She was even prepared to do such an outrageous thing.
"What I mean is, you think of a way to get Princess Yuyang to go to the Wutong side courtyard now."
Du Huairou frowned, "Qi Xinlian's yard."
"You should know the relationship between Qi Xinlian, the Holy Mother of Red Lotus, and Princess Yuyang."
Du Huairou nodded.
The relationship between the two is not as close as it is said outside. It is more that Qi Xinlian supports her aunt in everything, and her aunt likes to be supported by her.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Du Huairou left, and Zhou Yunshu did not stay here longer.
She had been out long enough, if she stayed any longer, someone would have come looking for her.
As soon as Zhou Yunshu stepped out of the threshold, the little maid who disappeared before appeared in front of her again.
At this time, the little maid was no longer as nervous as before, and just said to Zhou Yunshu: "Madam, please come this way."
"good."
Zhou Yunshu returned in time. If it were even half a moment later, Wu Gui would take Feng Xujie out to find her.
When Zhou Yunshu and the others left the Yang Mansion, Du Huairou had already arrived at the main courtyard with what Zhou Yunshu had ordered.
Du Hongyun, who was having a private conversation with his daughter, heard that Du Huairou had arrived and said to the grandmother beside him: "This child is so polite when she arrives at her aunt's house. Let her in quickly."
Mammy bowed her head and said, "Yes, Princess."
After the mammy left, the beautiful woman wearing a bright red gold peony dress sitting next to Princess Yuyang asked with gossip and curiosity in her eyes without mercy: "I heard that sister Huairou's child died on the road. ?”
Princess Yuyang frowned slightly when she heard her daughter's tone of gloating, and told her, "Don't mention this matter when you see your sister."
Yang Xinyue said with a smile: "If you don't mention it, don't mention it."
After saying that, Du Huairou walked in behind the mama who left before.
"Aunt, sister."
Du Huairou in front of Princess Yuyang was completely different from the Du Huairou in front of Zhou Yunshu.
In front of Princess Yuyang, Du Huairou was like a delicate flower in a greenhouse, without any threat at all.
"Rou'er is here, come and sit down." Yang Xinyue greeted enthusiastically.
Du Huairou listened obediently to Yang Xinyue's words and sat down next to Yang Xinyue obediently.
"Why didn't you come with your brother-in-law when you came to Luzhou this time?"
Du Huairou was in a place where no one could see her, the nails of her thumbs dug deeply into the belly of her fingers, but her face said softly: "The Yamen is busy with things, so I can't get away."
"I think it's just the red sleeves that add fragrance. I have no intention of accompanying you here at all!"
Du Huairou lowered his head with a lonely look, acquiescing to Yang Xinyue's words. When Yang Xinyue saw that she had guessed correctly, she decided to continue to expose Du Huairou's scars.
Who asked her to marry Qin Guang for five years and only gave birth to three daughters, and Qin Guang is still a scholar without an official position; and Du Huairou gave birth to a son after marrying Luo Junkun, and Luo Junkun also won the Jinshi and got an official position.
Even though two years later he was only a sixth-grade official, Yang Xinyue was still jealous.
Princess Yuyang quickly said before her daughter could say something more offensive: "Rou'er, why did you come here suddenly?"
Du Huairou glanced at the maids and women around him, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
When Yang Xinyue saw Du Huairou's expression, she immediately said: "Sister, if you have any unspeakable secrets, just tell me, this place is my mother and my own, there are no outsiders."
She had a gut feeling that there was a joke to be seen!
Du Huairou glanced at Princess Yuyang, saw Princess Yuyang nodded, and said: "When I was passing by the back garden just now, I vaguely saw Mrs. Qiao and a man walking towards the Wutong side yard. I I'm afraid that Mrs. Qi will be bullied and that other guests will misunderstand her, so I came here to tell my aunt."
Princess Yuyang frowned. Could it be that Qi Xinlian's in-laws were looking for trouble?
Otherwise, who else would dare to tease his friends on his own territory? He simply doesn't take the princess and his wife seriously.
Princess Yuyang's face darkened when she thought that someone dared to cause trouble when she was about to hold a birthday banquet.
"Follow me." Princess Yuyang stood up and said, "I want to see who dares to insult my distinguished guest!"
