"I'll go over there and take care of her!"
"You stay here too!"
Before Xingyun could pass the ginger soup forward, his young master had already walked out of the door quickly.
Eh……
Rao Shi Xingyun had a steady temperament, so he sighed in his heart. The fifth young master didn't like to drink ginger soup. I'm afraid he couldn't change this habit.
Here Xingyun went out with the bowl again, while Nanyun stayed in front of the bed and took care of Taoye.
But the atmosphere in the main courtyard was so stagnant that it was breathless.
"Thank you, madam. What happened to Yunrou in the mansion was indeed due to our poor care. The Duke of Jingguo is willing to try its best to make up for it, but this has nothing to do with Ajiu's marriage!"
Gu Yunqing's tone was already a little stiff.
"Mrs. Rong, who among the families in Shengjing knows that the queen intends to marry my Yunrou to the fifth young master Rong. Although the two of them have not performed an engagement ceremony, they are actually engaged. Your Majesty also acquiesced at that time!"
Mrs. Xie comes from the Chu family, a prominent family in Yunzhou. She is similar in age to the Cao family, but she carries the dignity and self-control of the family in every move she makes. She is extremely angry to be able to say these words today.
"Thank you, Madam Xie. Third Miss Xie is well-known outside the country and has a reputation as a virtuous person. It is understandable that His Majesty and the Empress in the Palace will give you praise. However, the marriage of children does not mention mutual love. There is still the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. Of course, if it is Even the will of His Majesty and the Empress can equal these!"
Song Yuewei saw that the handkerchief was already a little angry, so she smiled and said beside her.
As the saying goes, you should never slap someone with a smile, let alone the mother of His Majesty's favorite concubine. Although it was clearly pointed out that there was no real engagement between the granddaughter and the fifth young master of the Rong family, and there was no explicit decree from His Majesty and the Queen, her words were true. With no place to stand, Mrs. Chu couldn't even show her anger easily on her face.
"Hey, I know how crazy this child is, Yunrou. You two understand that when the weather gets cold, her body becomes weaker. She came to the house for an appointment today because she didn't want to disgrace Mrs. Rong, but she didn't expect to eat it. I have suffered so much! I haven’t even woken up yet!”
"Her grandfather loves this granddaughter the most. He doesn't know about it yet. If he knew about it, he would probably hurt her to some extent!"
As soon as these words came out, both Gu Yunqing and Song Yuewei's expressions changed slightly.
Taifu Xie has disciples all over the government and the public. He has a very high reputation among the civil servants in the world. He is very important nowadays and your majesty will not deny him face.
The two of them could think of this, and Mrs. Chu could naturally think of it. The anxious expression just now disappeared, and she returned to her usual calmness. She even picked up the tea cup and took a leisurely sip.
"Madam, the fifth young master is here!"
At this time, the little maids at the door lifted the curtain, and Rong Jiu lazily came in to greet her mother and the other two.
"Ajiu, thank you Miss San today..."
"Mother, Mrs. Xie happens to be here too. My son has something to say!"
Rong Jiu interrupted his mother's words with a smile.
As soon as Gu Yunqing showed confusion on her face, Rong Jiu turned to Mrs. Chu who was sitting next to her: "Rong is not talented and cannot deserve Miss Xie San's love. Please tell Miss Xie San to respect yourself and love yourself!"
Although Rong Jiu said this with a smile, the straightforwardness in her words made Chu's face change.
"What does Young Master Rong Wu mean by this?"
Not only the Chu family, but also Gu Yunqing and Song Yuewei looked at Rong Jiu with some doubts.
"Everything that happened in the pavilion today was clearly seen by Rong from the water corridor, including how Miss Xie San fell into the water and how she acted after falling into the water. The specific details, Mrs. Xie, can be asked after someone wakes up. It’s all clear!”
"Teacher Xie is famous all over the world, and the Xie family is the leader of the imperial family, unparalleled by others. Let me just say this. I hope the old lady will think about it carefully!"
After Rong Jiu finished speaking, she bowed to her superior: "Mother, Aunt Song, I still have something to do in the yard, please leave first!"
"Mrs. Rong, this is the son raised by Duke Jingguo!"
Mrs. Xie came from a direct branch of a distinguished family, and later married a man who rose to the top of the dynasty. Now her husband is a highly respected Taifu, the head of the civil servants, and everyone in the capital, including the royal family, who disrespects her will be punished today. A young boy pointed at his nose and spoke.
"Old Madam, please be careful what you say!"
Gu Yunqing couldn't listen to others talking about his son.
"Mrs. Xie, it seems that there are other secrets behind today's events. I'm afraid Third Miss Xie knows the twists and turns. It's better to wait until Miss Third wakes up and you can ask her questions clearly so that we can discuss the future affairs. Please tell me. Yeah?"
Song Yue pressed Gu Yunqing's hand slightly, shook her head almost invisibly, and continued to smile at Mrs. Chu.
"Miss Xie San is still unconscious. Biyun, go arrange a sedan chair and deliver her to the door!"
Gu Yunqing ordered while suppressing the unhappiness in his heart.
"Let's go, I have seen the courtesy of the Duke's mansion today!"
Mrs. Chu leaned on her cane and supported the maid's hand, and went out with a frosty expression on her face.
"It's really annoying. What happened today has nothing to do with Ajiu, but Mrs. Xie is pointing at Ajiu every word of her words. There is no reason at all!"
Without outsiders, Gu Yunqing spoke more directly.
"Who told your Ajiu to be liked by these daughters?"
Song Yuewei personally poured a cup of tea into the handkerchief and teased.
"Hey, I thought that Miss Xie's third daughter was just weak in body and had a good appearance and good family background. From what Ajiu said today, it seems that she fell into the water on purpose?"
Gu Yunqing is just a straightforward person, but he is not stupid.
"Don't worry, your Ajiu may look lazy, but he is a successful man and won't be tricked by others!"
The population of Uncle Jiayuan's house was small, and Pei Yi only had her as his wife, and there were no concubines or concubines. However, Song Yuewei was originally a concubine in the family, and she had seen many fights in the house, and she had guessed it as soon as Rong Jiu mentioned it. Probably.
"Fifth young master, the old lady has already taken the young master of the Cao family to the outer courtyard. We should meet the Xie family before they leave the gate!"
When Rong Jiu came out of the yard, there was a person waiting at the door.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mother Qin!"
"Fifth Young Master, you're welcome, this is what an old slave should do!"
Mother Qin smiled kindly.
"By the way, last time the manager Cao who was in charge of purchasing in the big kitchen got into trouble. The old slave used some tricks to give the job to Tian's mother. The Tian family is the son of a family that has been in the house for several generations. No one else can tell. What!"
"Mother Qin will arrange these things, just don't let mother worry about it!"
Rong Jiu's expression was as genuine as ever.
"I understand, fifth young master, please go slowly!"
Qin's mother looked at the figure in front of her and felt a little relieved. That girl Taoye seems to be a good girl now, but after all, her status is limited. In the future, she can only support an aunt. If she is someone who knows how to work in the house, she may become The second Aunt Luo.
However, she had just tested her and found out that this girl was probably not seeking her own benefit in front of the Fifth Young Master.
