Yu Qingyan gritted her teeth in hatred that there was someone with a higher status than herself. In the end, she could only glare at Xiao Nianzhi, turned around and pretended to be fine, then left with small steps.
During the whole process, the exquisite round fan in her hand never stopped. It kept shaking back and forth, not too much. Along with her small steps, Xiao Nianzhi thought of the ghost steps in opera.
Really, it’s okay not to think about it, the more I think about it, the more it looks like.
Moreover, after the comparison, I couldn't control my mind and looked at Yu Qingyan, no matter how much she looked like.
The other party had already turned around and walked to the other side. Xiao Nianzhi simply withdrew his gaze and stopped looking further.
Otherwise, if you look again, tonight, I’m afraid your dreams will be full of ghost steps!
Seeing Yu Qingyan walking away, Yan Changxia frowned impatiently and whispered: "Is there anything wrong with her?"
She didn't understand, but Aunt Yu, who turned her head later, did.
What's wrong with that?
That was because I wanted to cause trouble, but I found out that there was someone better than me. In the end, I gave up and could only leave in disgrace!
Such reality made Aunt Yu so angry that she gritted her teeth.
She used to think that being rich meant she would be content, and a simple-minded girl like Xiao Nianzhi could just marry into a wealthy family with a simple population.
At least, life is comfortable!
However, Aunt Yu's mind has changed now.
The little rich family may not be able to protect the little girl's face, and they can't protect it well.
If she doesn't want Xiao Nianzhi to be wronged, then her future husband must have some status.
She had been determined to bring Yan Xingxuan and Xiao Nianzhi together before, but now seeing this scene, she was even more determined.
The status of Princess Wei is good. Regardless of whether the royal family is in deep water or not, at least the status of Princess Wei can bring a lot of protection and convenience to Xiao Nianzhi.
Therefore, if the young apprentice also wants to, she can be a month old in the middle.
Aunt Yu thought that when no one else was around, she would test Xiao Nianzhi's attitude.
The three people quickly looked away and picked out a few more pieces of fabric.
Aunt Yu insisted on making two more dresses for Xiao Nianzhi. One of the pieces was made of emerald-colored material, and Aunt Yu couldn't put it down. Xiao Nianzhi persuaded her to make one dress for her, but she didn't want it, and wanted to make one for Xiao Nianzhi instead.
Of course, she was wearing the same color and looked a little plain, so Aunt Yu went to match her with another color.
Yan Changxia's four-season clothes don't need her to worry about.
The mother-in-law will naturally make arrangements, and their identities are often customized according to specifications.
Of course, that doesn’t mean you can’t do it in private.
So, she also picked two pieces.
The three of them were satisfied with their selection, mainly because Yan Changxia had begun to faintly feel Aunt Yu's happiness.
That is, dressing up Xiao Nianzhi.
Well, it’s fun and beautiful!
After looking at the materials, the three of them went to look at groceries from the north and south.
If it wasn't too hot, I would still like to join in the fun on the street.
But looking at the big sun in the sky, the three of them finally gave up.
After watching for a long time, the food was eaten, clothes were made, and the excitement was observed. The three of them packed up and prepared to go back to their respective places.
Xiao Nianzhi thought about it and bought some gingerbread to send back to the Xiao Mansion.
Although Xiao Siye and his son are not here, there are still many servants in the house who take good care of him.
So, she wanted to buy some delicious snacks to go back.
The two people saw Yan Changxia off first. When the little girl got on the carriage, she looked at them eagerly: "I will go to the Imperial College in a few days. Sister, please wait for me."
When he said this, his saliva was a bit disobedient and almost dripped, but Yan Changxia forcefully swallowed it back.
Wow, that's so embarrassing!
She almost drooled in public!
But fortunately, she has it under control~
pride!
After seeing Yan Changxia off, the master and apprentice went to Sanqiao Street to buy gingerbread.
Because it was a hot day and there were many people, Aunt Yu did not ask Xiao Nianzhi to go over and queue up, but asked the coachman Lao Zhou to go over and buy it.
The master and apprentice sat in the car and listened to the gossip.
The east family is the eldest and the west family is the short boy. They can't tell who is who.
However, one family heard clearly.
"Have you heard that those ladies who live at the end of the alley are so prosperous that they turn out to be the official's aunt?"
"Hey, is that your lady?"
"What kind of noble lady? She has a lower status than that concubine, but she is better than us working hard every day and talking too much."
"Bah! I used to look at someone who spoke softly and weakly. Hello brother from the east family. Thank you for the hard work from the eldest brother from the west family. I knew that it was definitely not a good thing. She is a coquettish girl who is used to seducing people. Who is a serious lady who can talk like this? At that time, the eyes were hooked?"
"Ouch, Mrs. Li, your man helped me carry water twice, and now I'm angry? She is now living with her children as a government official's wife, which is better than us."
…
Although he didn't mention anyone by name, Xiao Nianzhi had a gut feeling that he should be talking about Yao Cheng's outhouse.
Aunt Yu obviously understood, but the point she never quite understood was: "...Think about it, tell me, where did Mr. Yao get the money to redeem the body of this concubine?"
Yes, where does the money come from?
Xiao Nianzhi didn't understand either. It was also because of Aunt Yu's problem that she thought of something.
That is, Yao Wan's ending was not good in the end. After the fall of the third prince, as a female family member of the prince's house, she was inevitably liquidated.
Yao Wan is still a concubine, and her status is more noble than other female family members, so it is even harder to run away.
However, Yao Wan's mother seems to be a down-and-out county magistrate. After all, she is from the royal line with the surname Yan, so if she comes forward, Yao Wan can actually be saved.
At that time, Yao Wan had neither heirs nor pregnancy. From now on, she would remain anonymous and live like an ordinary person.
Of course, it was one thing whether the new emperor at that time was willing to let them go, but Mrs. Yao at that time did not seem to run away from it.
In the plot, it has been mentioned more than once that both Lord Yao and Mrs. Yao love their eldest daughter very much.
However, in the end, Mrs. Yao had no intention of running for it, and she fell out with Mr. Yao directly because of the matter in the outer room.
Lord Yao, as a member of the Third Prince's faction, will naturally not be able to escape the liquidation in the end.
But Mrs. Yao avoided it and finally managed to protect herself wisely.
Her other children were protected.
Only Yao Wan...
Xiao Nianzhi always felt that there should be something hidden in this, something that was not mentioned in the plot.
Of course, it might have been mentioned in the plot, but she was too angry to read it carefully.
So, what could it be?
Xiao Nianzhi stretched his imagination in various ways, but always felt that none of the logic was quite right.
It happened that Lao Zhou bought the gingerbread, and she no longer had trouble with herself.
The master and apprentice first went to Xiao Mansion to deliver cakes.
As expected, Xiao Siye and his son were not here.
After the housekeeper, Uncle Qin, took the things, he smiled and mentioned Xiao Ye, the eldest son of the Xiao family, to Xiao Nianzhi. He had been studying abroad and had not come back recently.
However, because of the exchange of letters, she also knew about the existence of Xiao Nianzhi's sister.
Finally, Uncle Qin mentioned what Xiao Ye sent back: "The eldest son sent a letter a few days ago, saying hello to the eldest daughter, and bringing back some gifts. When I saw that the eldest daughter never came back, I sent someone Send it to the academy. After the eldest girl returns to the academy, you can just ask the adults."
