The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

Chapter 147

How can there be an impenetrable wall in this world?

When Xiao Yinxiu walked in with Aunt Chu, Shuangyue, Long'er and other maids, they just heard Pei Qiuyu's last cry at the top of her lungs.

"Madam Crown Prince——"

Aunt Li came forward with a limp, and greeted them. Xiao Yinxiu walked to the seat of honor, helped Aunt Chu sit down, and looked at the dumbfounded Pei Qiuyu, and asked again, "Second sister, if you don't want to, then tell me earlier. This is a major event in life, and you can't force yourself to do it."

Pei Qiuyu never thought that Xiao Yinxiu would appear outside the door. She was so shocked that even with her smart mind, she couldn't think of any words to react.

She tried to force a smile, but it was very forced. "Second sister-in-law, you... please take a seat. Vanilla, have some tea."

Xiao Yinxiu smiled faintly, "Second sister hasn't answered my question yet?"

What words?

Pei Qiuyu's mind was in a state of confusion, sweat was pouring down her forehead. She was holding the handkerchief, and her calves began to tremble under her skirt.

"No..., Second Sister-in-law, you... misunderstood."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yinxiu hummed and looked at the girl in front of him who was almost 18 years old. When he was the same age, he would not dare to curse at her like that.

Pei Qiuyu originally wanted to apologize, but when she thought about the fact that Xiao Cang was blind and disabled, how could they become husband and wife?

Aunt Li saw her standing in front of her like a wooden stake, and hurriedly pulled her up, "Hurry up and apologize to the Crown Prince's wife. How can you talk like that? You really deserve a slap in the face."

After saying this, she smiled apologetically and begged Xiao Yinxiu, "Madam, please consider her young age and that I have not brought her up properly. I feel really guilty."

Pei Qiuyu stood there blankly, and suddenly felt angry.

She pushed Aunt Li away, took a half step forward, and knelt down in front of Xiao Yinxiu with a flutter. She spoke frankly, "Qiuyu is a bastard who said some unpleasant things. I beg you to forgive me, but I am stupid and don't know it. I am not good-looking, so I really dare not marry my cousin from the Xiao family. I ask you to take back your decision."

"Yu'er, what are you talking about!"

Aunt Li made a sharp sound, "The Xiao family's cousin is as precious as jade. It is your blessing to have such a good man in your life."

She was terrified and thought her daughter was crazy.

Even if she had a hundred abilities, she shouldn't have rejected this marriage directly in front of the Crown Prince's wife. If she did that, who would she be able to marry in the future?

Xiao family!

This is the mistress of the mansion. I am useless. From now on, all the girls in the mansion, even the girls from the second house, will have to rely on her... Yu'er, how confused you are!

Xiao Yinxiu took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Isn't this tea new this year?"

Pei Qiuyu was stunned and didn't know how to respond.

Aunt Li nodded reluctantly, "I'm so sorry, Madam, there's not much new tea this year, and we just finished it a few days ago——"

"Aunt Chu, please send two more boxes of spring tea to my aunt later. My useless brother bought a tea garden two years ago. I think it is several hundred acres. He only produces Mishan Zuichun Green Tea for your majesty. It's nothing like our mansion. We can only buy some from the east and reserve some from the west every year."

Pei Qiuyu was now very clear-headed and naturally knew what Xiao Yinxiu meant.

She lowered her head, knelt in front of him, and muttered to herself, "Xiao's cousin is both virtuous and talented, but Qiu Yu is of low status..."

"Get up. You are the second daughter of the Duke's Mansion. How can I, your sister-in-law, accept such a great gift from you? If you don't like my brothers from my mother's family, then forget it."

After saying that, he looked at the girl who was being forcefully helped up by Shuangyue and Long'er, and chuckled.

"I think my second sister will definitely marry a handsome man in the future, so the Xiao family will not delay her. When the prince returns, my husband and I will explain everything to father."

When Aunt Li heard this, she immediately became anxious.

He quickly stopped the master and servants who were about to leave, "No, no! Madam, Yu'er is still young, what does she know? Since ancient times, hasn't it always been the parents who decided when it comes to marriage? The Duke and you have been so kind in taking care of her and finding such a good marriage for her, you can't back out."

Xiao Yinxiu shook off Aunt Li's hand in disgust, no longer concealing her frivolous attitude.

"My second sister is young, and I was negligent. I actually thought of matching her with my useless brother. Now it seems that it is not a big deal to keep her for a few more years. Auntie, don't worry, the Xiao family will naturally know when to advance and retreat."

At this point, Xiao Yinxiu felt hatred well up in his heart. If it weren't for Cang'er's poor eyesight, how could the ignorant and superficial concubine's daughter in front of him be able to marry him!

joke!

Aunt Li dared not say anything more, feeling that she had made a big mistake.

She limped and chased after Xiao Yinxiu, but she was clumsy in speaking and couldn't say anything nice, so she could only watch the master and servants walk away.

In fact, everyone in the eldest house knew that Pei Qiuyu was unwilling. After all, there were only a few masters, and they knew what was going on without having to keep an eye on them. But Pei Qiuyu was young, and his aunt was not favored. After the incident, some servants complained to the prince's wife.

Xiao Yinxiu became furious when he heard this.

"Madam, she is cursing with Aunt Li in the room right now. I couldn't bear to watch and listen, so I came to tell you. You are kind enough to take care of the second young lady, but she is like crazy, thinking that you are harming her."

The old woman, wearing a half-worn servant's cloth dress and skirt, had an unremarkable appearance. She was standing in front of the prince's wife, accusing her of everything, no matter how big or small, with some exaggeration.

Xiao Yinxiu pointed at a few maids and walked towards Aunt Li's remote courtyard.

Sure enough, the fifteen-year-old Pei Qiuyu had a loud voice and could hear most of what was said as soon as she entered the courtyard. She sneered a few times, and when she had heard enough, she shouted at him.

After they left the house, Aunt Chu whispered, "Madam, don't take it to heart. The young master is very capable, so there's no need to worry about finding a good marriage!"

"Bah! Now I am thankful for her. If such a person had entered the Xiao family, wouldn't it have harmed Cang'er? Forget it. When she went to ask the Fourth Elder's family to intercede for her, I should have made a decision earlier and put her mind at ease."

Four days before Qingming Festival, Pei Chen brought a team of people back to celebrate his brother-in-law's birthday.

The next day, the Xiao family entered the capital and sent someone to tell them on horseback early. Xiao Yinxiu got the news and dressed up formally, and sent the prince to Zhengxian Pavilion to report to the Duke. The Duke was overjoyed, straightened his hair and sleeves, and brought Pei Chen and his wife, Qi Yueniang and her son, Pei Qiuyu and a group of servants to open the door early to welcome the head of the Xiao family, Xiao Hongyun, and his wife, Xiao Hongli, the third son of the Xiao family, and his wife, Liu, as well as a dozen of the younger generation.

Suddenly, there was a constant stream of traffic and people in front of the mansion, and it was very lively.

Song Guanzhou originally wanted to join in the fun, but the ulcer on his leg flared up due to the hot weather. After Sun Lin came to his house and drained the pus, he could no longer walk.

I could only lie on the bed, smelling the scent of books and ink, and feeling drowsy.
