The Lofty Fierce Consort

Chapter 10

After hearing what Zhao’s mother said, Aunt Pei couldn’t help frowning.

The second girl Yan Qian interrupted: “Since she won’t come out, let her stay inside, why bother to let her out.”

Yan Qian was older than Yan Yan, ranked second in the house, and was the daughter of Aunt Pei. Since she was a child, Yan Yan has been wrong, but on the face of her, she still has to learn how Aunt Pei treats Yan Yan with respect to Shen Yiyao. Don’t ask why, Aunt Pei educated Yan Qian in this way.

But Yan Qian had long seen Yan Yan displeased, and had secretly targeted Yan Yan countless times, but Yan Yan was dominated by her, and she was never a bully. She had never had the upper hand. This time Yan Yan was locked up in Xiaofotang, but Yan Qian woke up with a smile in her dreams.

“You go out for me, adults speak, what do you say.” Aunt Pei rarely raised her pitiful face, which she had always expressed with her two children.

Yan Qian pouted her little mouth, pinched her kerchief and went out.

“Cousin girl, how do you think this is good?”

Aunt Pei thought carefully for a while, and then sighed: “It seems that I have to relieve my aunt this time. I’ll talk to my wife.”

Mother Zhao’s eyes flashed and she didn’t speak. I spit on this Auntie Pei in my heart. What can relieve the old lady’s worries? Didn’t you make this happen?

Mama Zhao still smiled and said, “A girl who is wise, then there is a girl who works.”

Aunt Pei went all the way to Jinseyuan. At this time, there was news of Mrs. Shen’s arrival in Jinseyuan.

Shen Yiyao cleaned up her makeup and was about to see her second sister-in-law. The person who sent the letter didn’t know what Mrs. Shen was here for, so she just treated it as a guest.

Seeing Aunt Pei at this time, she said she was going to Rong’antang. But Aunt Pei asked her to wait and have something to tell her. Shen Yiyao turned back into the hall according to her temper, and the two sat down to talk.

Aunt Pei didn’t have any ink, and she went straight to the topic, saying that Mrs. Shen was here to take the third girl to the town government office this time, and said that grandpa and grandmother missed his granddaughter.

Shen Yiyao was a little startled for a while, her eye circles were a little red, but not obvious.

“Since my father and mother miss A Yan, let me pick it up.”

Aunt Pei looked a little embarrassed, and whispered: “Madam, don’t forget, the three girls are still locked in the small Buddha hall.”

Hearing this, Shen Yiyao squeezed her handkerchief, and then she didn’t know what to think of, and said, “Since things happen suddenly, I can avoid counting the next day.”

Shen Yiyao’s attitude was very natural and upright, except for a little bit of distress and relief on her face, nothing else.

Aunt Pei who said this was not easy to answer. She thought for a while and said: “The three girls don’t want to come out.”

“Why?”

“The third girl said that since the wife said she would be shut down for half a month, she couldn’t come out before the time was up.”

Shen Yiyao looked distressed and relieved, and murmured: “My Ah Yan is still obedient. She is just a bit domineering in temper, and she knows she is wrong…”

Aunt Pei was a little anxious, and she knew that she couldn’t hold back there, so she couldn’t help asking: “Madam, what can I do?”

“What do you do?” Shen Yiyao glanced at her in surprise.

“The three girls don’t come out, how can they go to the town government office?”

Shen Yiyao pondered for a moment, and said: “It is good for A Yan to have regrets. Then tell the second wife that A Yan will go back in a few days, and then the mansion will send her over.”

The smile on Aunt Pei’s face couldn’t keep up, she couldn’t help but anxiously said: “But how can Mrs. Shen explain to her? Let her know that the third girl has been locked up, isn’t it not a good idea?”

“What’s not so good about this? Children have to be punished if they do something wrong. Our Shen family has always taught juniors in this way.”

Speaking of this, Shen Yiyao showed a nostalgic smile.

The Shen family has always had strict family rules. When she was a child, her two brothers were punished in the same way by her father for doing wrong things. Because she was from her daughter’s family and she was much younger, she had never been punished. Moreover, in Shen Yiyao’s view, it was just a matter of introspection, a lot of food and a lot of drinks, what can you have. Although A Yan was punished, she was very distressed, but she had to be punished if she did something wrong.

“Okay, I won’t delay with you, I’ll talk to the second sister-in-law.”

Aunt Pei didn’t expect she would suffer from Shen Yiyao’s place, but she still suffered from a dumb loss who couldn’t speak of bitterness, and she could only retreat in anguish.

Mother Zhao was still waiting for her at Ziyuxuan. Seeing that she had a bad face, she asked about the specific situation, but turned around and went to the small Buddha hall.

Mrs. Shen’s appearance was full, and she asked Yan Yan why she couldn’t come. The old lady smiled and said that she had already sent someone to invite her, and asked Mrs. Shen to wait again.

Unexpectedly, if you don’t come first, and if you don’t come second, Mrs. Shen’s complexion is a little unpleasant.

“Old lady, has something happened? Why isn’t A Yan yet?”

“This…” the old lady ordered the maid next to her: “Go and see what’s going on, why haven’t the three girls come yet?”

After sitting for a while, Mother Zhao came back and said a few words in the ear of the old lady. The old lady’s face suddenly changed color like a palette. After a long time, she faced the second lady Shen.

She smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, “Ms. Shen laughed, something went wrong. A little while ago, A Yan and Yao’er had a conflict, and Yao’er shut A Yan in furiously. Get up. The old man originally said, let Ayan out, let her go to the town government office with you, so that the mother and daughter will get more and more furious. Who knows that Yao’er’s temper is coming and she won’t allow it. Look at this…”

Mrs. Shen’s eyes were burning with a smile on her face. Hearing this, she was shocked and said: “Really? What did A Yan make wrong? The little girl actually moved like this.”

The old lady concealed a smile, “It’s nothing, it’s just that the mother and daughter have a temper. Yao’er originally said that Ayan will be off for half a month, but it hasn’t arrived yet. She said that she would wait until the time is up before letting Ayan out, saying that in-laws are at home. It’s always been this way to educate younger generations, and I’m a mother-in-law, it’s not easy to say anything. Or else, the old man will persuade Yaoer to send Ah Yan to Zhenguo Gongfu in two days?”

Mrs. Shen’s communication with the noble ladies of various prefectures all the year round, she knows the nature of these people to talk to others and talk to others. Although Shen Yiyao seldom returns to her natal home after getting married, Mrs. Shen still understands the nature of this little girl. She has always loved A Yan, so how could she hold on to others. What’s more, the rules of the Shen family’s education of juniors are harsh, but at most it is only for male juniors, but never for girls. If outsiders don’t know, it doesn’t mean that insiders don’t know either.

So the old lady was talking nonsense with her eyes open, and she spoke very well. There are many meanings in the words, that is, they put aside the matter of Guan Ayan, and completely pushed them to the younger sister. They also used the rules of the Shen family to suppress others, hoping to let her know this, no longer do more entanglements, and speak well. Jiguangtang also brought the meaning of seeing off guests.

Changing to an ordinary person, he left the boat along the way.

But who is Mrs. Shen?

It was the daughter-in-law who even the prince Zhen Guo praised, and came here with his father’s life, and even saw a lot of tricks from it, how can we let them do what they want?

What’s more, Mrs. Shen’s second wife doesn’t know a fool either. She has been here for almost half an hour, and Shen Yiyao, the sister-in-law, hasn’t arrived. This is another tricky thing.

There was a reason why Shen Yiyao hadn’t arrived. Aunt Pei told someone to stop her when she saw that things were not going well. It’s about those who were seriously ill when Yan Yan was plunged into the water that day. Shen Yiyao must not get off for a while, and Mrs. Yan as long as Mrs. Shen Er can be sent away as soon as possible. They have some leisure time.

It’s a pity to disappoint them—

Mrs. Shen said with a distressed expression on her face, and said anxiously: “Why is my little girl so confused! How old is A Yan, and has always been smart and clever, and her in-laws are so loving, so why are you here? How can I go back? Tell her mother-in-law, let’s be honest, mother-in-law will definitely feel distressed so that she can’t sleep at night. No way, no, I still have to take Xiao Ayan back today. Where is Ayan locked up? I’m going to take people away, and the little girl will definitely not say anything. what!”

After speaking, Mrs. Shen stood up, as if she was leading the way.

The old lady is sitting there, her whole body is not good.

“Old lady, can you find someone to help lead the way?”

Can she say no?

Mother Zhao, who was busy running around just now, had to step forward and lead the way, and had to smile, but that smile was extremely stiff.

…

Yan Yan sat there stubbornly, and no one dared to move her.

After Mother Zhao left, she returned after a while, and led everyone away, and the door was closed and locked again.

Yan Yan is a little anxious, is it possible that her second aunt was fooled away by her grandmother?

No, no, the second aunt is so shrewd, Hui Niang will send the letter back in the middle of the night, she will certainly not be so easy to pass. Thinking about it this way, Yan Yan calmed down and sat there with her knees steadily hugged.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then the door was opened.

“Little Ayan!”

After hearing an exclamation, Mrs. Shen rushed forward and hugged Yan Yan.

Madam Shen Er couldn’t believe her eyes, even if she had some insights in her heart, if it weren’t for the hardship, A Yan’s stubborn temper would surely not be enough to ask her grandfather for help. But seeing the reality, she knew what the real situation was like.

As soon as the door opened, dust was flying everywhere. The little A Yan sat on the ground with her knees hugged, her hair and clothes all messed up, and her brows and eyes were fluttering and wanton in the past.

All this pierced Madam Shen’s eyes and heart, making her suddenly furious.

The Shen family has always had a few girls and children, and the two sons and a daughter were under the knees of Zhen Guo’s father. The only daughter was Shen Yiyao. The eldest son, Shen Dong, had three sons and no daughter, and the second son, Shen Ding, had two sons and no daughter.

Not having a daughter has always been a regret in Mrs. Shen’s heart, but she lost her body when she gave birth to her second child, and it is not easy to get pregnant in the future, so she almost treats Yan Yan as her own daughter. So furious.

“You shut a child in the Weiyuan Hou Mansion, that’s how it is? There is not even a window in this small house, and it has been shut down for several days!”

Mother Zhao explained with a stiff smile: “Second Madam, this is the madam’s life, you know, our old lady can’t say anything!”

“Don’t come to this set with me. This lady still doesn’t know you who are indiscriminately. If you look at the master who doesn’t know what’s inside, she will go up and down to deceive the master. Mrs. Shen Yiyao knows better. If she knows this is the case, I will never lock my daughter in!”

Mother Zhao’s face was a bit stiff, and of course she knew who these Xia San abuses were scolding, and she was suspected of criticizing Sang Huai. She was so mature, watching the movement, she estimated that the matter would not be trivial, she wanted to pick herself out first.

“This, the lady also knows that the servants serve the old lady, and the others don’t know.”

Mrs. Shen snorted coldly, “Well, you go and call someone who knows, I want to see what your Weiyuan Houfu said!”

“Second aunt…”

Mrs. Shen calmly patted Yan Yan in her arms, and said, “Ayan, don’t be afraid, you don’t care about this. Aunt will ask you for justice.”

While talking, the servant woman brought by Mrs. Shen Er moved a spring bench from somewhere, and she sat on it with Yan Yan in her arms.

Seeing this, Zhao’s mother swallowed back the words of “Speaking in another place”. After saluting, he hurriedly retreated.
