In the early morning of the next day, Li Shi ordered Qingya to send Prince Yong and his wife back to their residence, and she played for a while before returning.
After she came back, she walked along the long corridor. The bells on her waist were ringing and ringing loud and clear. Her expression was like a happy fairy. She smiled slightly, straightened her skirt, and took small steps. Follow the gravel path into the entrance of Weilan Garden.
He met Cui He head-on, carrying a plain cloak.
"Girl, you are back. My maid even said that I would pick you up! Come and put your cloak up to avoid the cold."
As Cui He said this, he put it on her carefully. Seeing her smiling face, he asked, "Miss, can you go to the palace to have a look?"
She hesitantly said: "Go and go."
Cui He suddenly smiled again: "The girl is so happy, she must have had a great time chatting with the imperial concubine!"
She said perfunctorily: "Yes, yes!"
"Okay, girl, let's go!"
She lowered her head slightly and calmed down her emotions: "Okay, let's go!"
The two of them walked together, and she felt like a spring breeze all the way inside. As she approached the main room of Weilan Garden, she could hear the sounds of quarrels in the house from a distance. The scene was intense, and the servants stood outside to listen.
"Cuitao is the maid my sister left for me. Madam, what authority do you have to send her away?"
It turned out that Qingru and Gongren were quarreling. She only saw Gongren sitting on the throne and said righteously: "I am the mistress of the Li family. I have been personally appointed by the Holy Emperor. How come I can't even deal with a maidservant?" "
In the inner room, Qingru stood in front of Gongren and confronted her. She was full of anger and yelled at him. When Qingya heard it, she stood alone on the corridor and watched carefully.
Qingru laughed and said: "Mother, what a joke. If my sister hadn't passed away, would it be your turn to be the mistress? I'm afraid you've even forgotten the miserable days when you were a concubine, and you dare to embarrass me even if you're just filling a house. I sent away those around me.”
Qingya was very confused and asked Cuihe in a low voice: "What's going on?"
Cui He shook his head. At this moment, Mo Ying, who was beside Gongren, walked past the door: "Second girl, when I came this morning, the eldest lady called Cuitao, who was beside the third girl, to ask questions. For some reason, Cuitao bumped into the eldest lady. , and broke the eldest lady’s favorite porcelain vase.”
She lowered her voice again: "The eldest lady was so angry that she ordered the housekeeper to tear up her deed document and send her back to her hometown in Liaoyang. When the three girls found out, they quarreled with the eldest lady."
"Sister never summons people from Yao Wenyuan. What's wrong with this person?"
"My maid doesn't know what's going on with my eldest lady!"
Qingya said as she approached, and from a distance she saw Kyouto sitting on the chair in anger, clutching his chest.
When she saw this, she immediately ran to her side to support her, called her sister, and then faced Qingru and yelled: "Qingru, what are you doing!"
"Hey, Qingya, your health is feeling better!"
"Since I am in good health, I have thanked my sister for her concern."
"Looking at you, your scar has healed and you have forgotten the pain. Now that my cousin is back, do you really think that you are really a concubine? How dare you yell at me like this."
She sneered coldly and said in a low voice: "Yes, what the third sister said is that if I want to be a concubine, I also have this opportunity. It's a pity that the third sister is so good-looking that she even fell into the eyes of her cousin." No."
"Oh, you are so pretentious that you can coax a gentle person like my cousin. If I want to be my cousin's wife, who will get your turn? I just begged my father with one sentence, and you, a noble lady, can only dream of it. It was a waste.”
"Pretending, I'm afraid the third sister is wrong. I can't imitate the behavior of the third sister who always cries and wipes her tears. Others say that like mother, like daughter, how come the third sister is the legitimate daughter but she doesn't study hard?" I heard some concubine’s advice, but I think this statement is not trustworthy, so I have to judge it on a case-by-case basis.”
Hearing this, Qingru stretched out her hand to hit her, but she threw her palm on Qingya's cheek: "Who are you? You dare to talk about my sister."
She subconsciously spat again: "You bastard! A bastard who came from a concubine climbed up here, and you are still arrogant in front of me."
Kyouto saw his daughter being beaten, and immediately stood up and touched the red spot on her face, and pushed Qingru back: "What are you doing! Why did you beat her?"
"Madam, try pushing me again. I will tell dad immediately and drive you back to your hometown."
She Zhengzheng circled Gongren's arm, regained her composure, suppressed the anger in her heart, and moved forward step by step: "Yes, you can do this now, I don't have any status in the Li family, so She's similar to that guy, but listen, I won't argue with you because you are my sister, not because I'm afraid of daddy's behavior."
She walked forward again and pursed her lips: "Yes, I am not as beautiful as you, and I am not as good at talking and pleasing as you, but I understand that even if I am as humble as dust, I still have to live a good life with my chest held high and my head raised high. Since you and I are both father’s daughters, Ma Shuai’s daughter proves that I am not inferior to you.”
"You see that I don't fight back or care about it, so you think I'm weak? I've been practicing martial arts and archery with my elder brother since I was a child, so you think I can't control you?"
"My sisters, blood is thicker than water. If there is any internal strife between you and me, there will be a lot of outsiders laughing at you, but only the third sister will take action like this regardless of her status!"
Qingru looked at her bloodshot eyes and turned her head: "What are you doing with this call? Are you pretending in front of me, thinking I will be soft-hearted?"
"How do you think it's easy to follow you? You've been eating the best food since you were a child. Usually you either deliberately seek trouble or stir up trouble and go to my father to file a lawsuit against me and cause me to be punished. I haven't done anything in these years. It was fine one day, and now I'm used to it."
She turned back and looked at her again and said: "But, a gentleman's revenge is never too late. If you pass it, you and I will see who will be the swordsman and who will be the flesh and blood in the future."
"You are the daughter of a stepmother, and you are of a humble nature. Even if you enter the prince's palace, you are just a concubine. Dad has promised to find me the title of the first lady. If I become the concubine, , just wait and kneel down for me!"
She sneered lightly: "Okay, then we'll wait for the third sister to get promoted."
Qingru rolled her eyes and said: "Second sister just said that you and I are both Ma Shuai's daughters? Hahaha, I'm afraid sister may have misunderstood. You have nothing to do with the Li family. You are the wife of the eldest lady." bastard."
Qingru's words were harsh and harsh, and he hurt her with every word he said. When she heard such disrespectful words, she had to fight back: "You said it's okay to hit me, but if you hurt my sister with your arrogant words again, then you will Wait."
"So what? It makes sense. Cui He knows a lot, so the eldest lady sent her away!"
Kyouto was finally irritated and turned around sharply: "Shut up! If you say another word, I will call your father over immediately and see how he disciplines you."
Qingru also knew that this was not a trivial matter, so she shook her head and walked out, whispering as she walked: "You bastard."
She suddenly paused in place for a long time, her eyes were blind, and her mind seemed to be filled with thousands of sails.
Although it was an impulsive remark, she did listen to it, and she calmed down slightly: "Sister, is it really as Qingru said?"
Gongren pulled her over: "Qingya, don't listen to the rumors. Cuitao broke my vase. I said a few words to her, and she started to contradict me. It was your father's intention to send her away."
"You are the legitimate daughter of the Bohai Li family. This is a fact. You must not listen to slander."
Seeing her mother's serious look, Qingya gave up the idea. She retracted her thoughts and nodded: "Okay."
"Good boy, your mother is a woman, but she never protected you. You are always beaten and punished. You really are a useless mother."
She nodded: "I don't blame sister, Qingya will be more careful in the future."
The two of them felt at ease with each other, but Kyouto was sitting alone in the chair, her face looked bad, and she felt a headache coming to her head. She supported her head with her hands and closed her eyes to calm herself down.
Qingya came up and said with concern: "Sister, if you feel unwell, let the doctor girl come and take a look!"
Kyouto nodded: "Okay! Let's call the doctor girl!"
She waved Cuihe to hand over the medical girl, and then sat quietly next to Gongren.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside Sa Xuan, and I heard laughter and laughter for a few days.
In Saxuan, Li Shi taught Xianke how to write in front of the desk. He taught him step by step how to write. After a few strokes were flowing smoothly, he picked up the tea cup and drank the tea, then pinched the small hair on Xianke's head with his big hand. Hair Bun smiled and said:
"My son's handwriting is good, but he still lacks some strength in his writing. It needs time to settle. If you practice your handwriting well and read, you will have a bright future in the future."
Xianke nodded: "Yes, daddy."
"After you finish writing today, you should go find Qingya to recite in the afternoon!"
"good!"
Footsteps outside the house gradually approached, Mo Ying followed with two maids, and several people burst in with joyful expressions on their faces, clasping their hands in a salute: "My lord, the eldest lady is happy!"
After hearing this, Li Shi suddenly stood up from his chair and was extremely surprised: "Are you afraid you are trying to trick me?"
"How can this slave have the courage to lie to the master? I just called the doctor to see that the eldest lady is two months pregnant.
Xianke slowly stopped writing in his hand. Li Shi smiled like a flower in the room, his face red and happy. He stood up and waved: "Xian'er, let's go and see your sister."
