www.lnmao.org, the fastest update is the latest chapter of "Suddenly Yandere"!
Ms. Lin was still smiling while twisting her daughter's hair and trying on the hairpins. After a quarter of an hour, she started to look out frequently. After two quarters of an hour, her face became distorted and she sent a little girl to look for her.
Shopkeeper Qian opened the remaining red paint boxes and promoted his own jewelry eloquently, which relieved the awkward atmosphere.
After a short while, Grandma Jin came in holding a box.
"Why have you been there for so long?" Lin asked in a deep voice. Yu Miaoqi held up a gold hairpin and looked in the mirror, as if she didn't hear anything.
"Back to Madam, the third lady searched for a long time before she found this box and said she wanted to give it to the second lady, so it was delayed." Aunt Jin handed the box over and found that it was covered with dust, which had obviously been picked up by Yu Xiang. I felt very embarrassed at the discarded items and quickly wiped the dust away with my sleeves.
Mrs. Lin’s already gloomy face was dripping with tears at this moment. Just when she was about to rebuke, ‘It’s too much to bully others’, shopkeeper Qian exclaimed, “Oh, this is not the only Luan Feng Bead in our Jinxiu Pavilion. Is it a Winged Golden Bu Yao? Not to mention that the three Eastern pearls wrapped around the Bu Yao are each the size of a longan, which is hard to find in this world. The box alone is expensive to make. The body of the box is made of a whole piece of gold wire. It is carved from nanmu. There are several crabapple flowers inlaid on the lid of the box. The petals are made of top-grade red jade thinned and spliced together. The color is delicate and full of water. When placed in the sun, it looks like real flowers. It makes people want to reach out. Caressing."
As she spoke, she took the box and turned it in a bright place, exclaiming, "Two, three, Miss Xiang'er is so generous. This box alone is a treasure in our store. Don't say it's too late." . Each Dongzhu costs this amount when sold separately." She stretched out a palm and shook it.
It is also strange today that a second young lady appears out of nowhere in the Yongle Marquis Mansion, saying that she is Miss Xiang'er's twin sister. However, the two of them look nothing alike, and their temperaments are completely different, and I don’t know their origins.
Never mind it, as long as she makes money.
Shopkeeper Qian was muttering in his heart, but he praised Yu Xiang for the gift. Only then did Lin's gloomy expression soften slightly, and he handed over the pair of cards, "Take the pair of cards and go get the money." ."
"Thank you, Madam, for your patronage. If you need anything next time, just ask for the women's goods. The women's things are among the best in the capital. I will never let you down." Shopkeeper Qian received the card with a smile and sighed after going out. One breath.
Mrs. Lin ordered Grandma Jin to put away all the jewelry piled on the table. When she turned back, she saw her daughter crying in front of the opened crabapple box.
"Qier, what's wrong with you? Who made you unhappy?" She quickly walked over and took her daughter into her arms and patted her.
"Mother, this box alone is very valuable, not to mention the jewels inside." She closed the box and pushed it away, tears falling even harder, "And I have never seen what Dongzhu looks like in the Shen family. . To me, those are all things that are beyond my reach, a life that I will never dare to ask for. But what about the reality? In fact, these things should have belonged to me, but they were all taken away by her! Mother, I even have to report to her when I buy some clothes and jewelry. Am I the legitimate daughter of the Hou family? If I have to live by her face in the future, why should I come back? Why don't you send me back again!"
The more she talked, the sadder she became. She took off a purse from her waist and choked with sobs, "Mother, besides you, who else in the Hou family cares about me. Look at what grandma gave me, a peace charm. That’s it. You can buy a peace charm with a copper plate in the temple, but she used it as a meeting gift for me. This is because she dislikes her daughter from the bottom of her heart!"
Actually, Yu Miaoqi misunderstood. This peace talisman was not bought with a copper plate, but was written and consecrated by the great monk Kuhai of the Han Dynasty. If you take it out, no one can grab it. Good stuff arrived. Thanks to Yu Xiang's close friendship with Monk Kuhai, who had been writing about Buddhist scriptures for ten years, he made an exception.
It's a pity that the old lady fed all the hard work into the dog's belly. Not only did Yu Miaoqi not appreciate it, she also secretly hated her.
After hearing this, Mrs. Lin was furious. While scolding the old lady for being partial, she walked outside and threw the peace charm into the brazier where the yellow paper was burning. When the flame licked the talisman, it gave off a strong Zen fragrance, but it disappeared in a moment.
She turned back, hugged her daughter and whispered through gritted teeth, "Don't worry, Qier. From now on, mother will never let you suffer such humiliation today. After all, mother is also the head mistress of the Hou Mansion, and she has been free for fourteen days. In the new year, it’s time to take charge of the central government again. It’s not necessarily a matter of who looks at who’s life!”
"Mother, you are the only one who treats your daughter best. My daughter can only rely on you!" Yu Miaoqi threw herself into her arms and cried, a dark light flashing across her tear-filled eyes.
Nanny Jin had been holding back her words and was about to persuade her master, but she found that the second lady had said everything she wanted to say. If the master takes charge of Zhongfu again, she will be the stewardess respected by everyone in the prince's mansion in the future. How much money is waiting to be harvested? Thinking of this, she couldn't hold back the joy in her heart. She quickly covered the smile on her lips with a veil, but the corners of her eyes drooped, as if she was very sad.
-------------------------------------------------- -------------
In the main courtyard, the old lady was reading a book of scriptures, when she saw Wan Qiu coming in with a solemn face, whispering something in Mammy Ma's ear. The words "Madam, burnt, disgusted" and other words could be vaguely heard.
Mama Ma's face changed drastically, and the hand holding the handkerchief began to tremble unconsciously.
"What are you talking about? Let me listen too?" The old lady turned over a page of the Buddhist scriptures and spoke slowly.
Nanny Ma sent Wan Qiu away with a rather hesitant expression.
The old lady sneered, "Is Mr. Lin acting like a monster again? Tell me!"
Mommy Ma knelt at her feet and said sadly, "Go back to the old madam. The young lady said that you disliked her, and the meeting gift you gave her was a peace charm that can be bought for a copper plate in the temple. After hearing this, the madam became furious and threw The talisman was thrown into the fire and burned directly."
Since she learned about her granddaughter’s fate, the old lady asked Yu Xiang to pray for this talisman, enshrine it in Zhenguo Temple and ask eminent monks to recite sutras and bless it every day. This offering lasted for four years, and donated money to Zhenguo Temple every month. The sesame oil cost two hundred taels of silver, and the old lady paid for it all herself. Putting aside this sincerity, there are tens of thousands of taels of silver in total. How can it be burned down in a flash of fire?
You just get burned when you have a fever, but you still want to slander the old lady verbally. What kind of ungrateful and ungrateful are you! Anyone who has any respect for the old lady would not be able to do such a thing!
Mama Ma wished she could rush to the main room and give Lin and Yu Miaoqi two slaps each.
The old lady did not get angry. Instead, she chuckled. When she spoke again, her tone changed, "Yan'er is right. That Yu Miaoqi has a cold temperament and holds grudges but not gratitude. She should stay away. I'll keep it away. How can I treat her as well as the Shen and his wife who raised her? She can even give up on the Shen and his wife, so how can she remember my kindness? That’s all, don’t do this hot-faced but cold-butt thing again in the future It’s about raising her for a year and a half and then marrying her off. Just like Yu Siyu, she is also careless.”
Mother Ma nodded repeatedly, and after thinking for a while, she said, "That girl also said that Madam is afraid that she wants to **** the power of running the family from Miss Xianger. Old Madam, look at this..."
Hearing this, the old lady was really angry and snorted coldly, "The power of running the family? Just by her? The current Hou Mansion is not the Hou Mansion when Junjie was there. Her little ability is probably just for fun. No. But if she dares to say this, I can help her."
After hearing this, Mother Ma was horrified and reminded, "Old madam, what should I do if something goes wrong?"
As the old lady said, the current Yongle Marquis Mansion is very different from the past. Although Yu Pinyan had the title of a hussar general, in fact, the tiger talisman had been returned to the emperor long ago. He was determined to be the sword in the emperor's hand, cutting through thorns and **** progress. In order to pave the way for the crown prince to ascend the throne, the emperor, who has already eliminated several kings with different surnames, will attack the intricately connected aristocratic families in the coming year. Under this general trend, the Yongle Marquis Mansion can only act as an independent minister and must not be associated with any political party.
Not only did Yu Pinyan need to grasp this standard, but also the interactions between the wives in the back house could not cross the emperor's bottom line. Yu Xiang had done very well before, and in the eyes of the old lady, it couldn't be better. She didn't expect that Xiang'er was already so smart, that he could understand even the Holy Spirit so thoroughly, and she didn't even need to remind her.
Lin was very shrewd and capable before he became confused, but that shrewdness was limited to the small calculations and tricks in the back house, which was in no way comparable to Xiang'er's broad vision.
If this family is left to the Lin family, there will definitely be trouble.
The old lady thought about it, waved her hand and said, "If she dares to speak, let her take care of it. Xiang'er and I will just watch and nothing will happen. Xiang'er manages the Hou Mansion with iron-blooded skills, and her brother is the best." True story. With Lin’s meager tricks, she would collapse within a few months of taking over. Over the years, she has stuck to the main wife and indulged in the past, but I can’t find any fault with her. This time, I will let her run wild and act like a monster until I catch her. The handle was just right for her to get the divorce letter and go home, and her family couldn't say anything."
After hearing these words, Grandma Ma understood the old lady's plan. Also, missing her late husband is not a mistake. The old lady doesn’t want to tolerate Mrs. Lin anymore! After fourteen years, it’s time to endure it to the end.
"Where is Mr. Marquis..." Mother Ma had to remind her.
"Go and ask Yan'er if he still recognizes Mrs. Lin as his mother?" The old lady sneered. Before, she was worried about her grandson's face, which was why she didn't make a big move. This time, she finally saw her grandson's heart clearly after she brought Yu Miaoqi back. The grandson probably doesn't want to recognize the Lin family anymore, and he doesn't even want to acknowledge Yu Miaoqi. Otherwise, how could he be so indifferent.
"She doesn't recognize the Marquis, and the Marquis naturally doesn't recognize her either. She doesn't still have the Marquis in her heart. All she thinks about is the second young lady, and she doesn't even think about who earned her good life over the years." Mother Ma shook her head and sighed.
The old lady also sighed, picked up a Buddhist scripture and chanted it in a low voice.
In the main house, Ms. Lin didn’t know that except for Grandma Jin and her two daughters, all the servants in her yard had become the spies of the old lady and Yu Xiang, and she still thought that she was the unerring mistress of the past. , do not avoid people at all.
Yu Miaoqi didn't know what was going on, so she relaxed when she saw her being so wanton. The mother and daughter discussed how to speak to the old lady, and they didn't go to bed until a quarter past three o'clock.
Early the next morning, Yu Miaoqi dressed up carefully and went with Mrs. Lin to the main courtyard to pay her respects to the old lady.
