Chapter 18 Suffering a Dumb Suffering

Yuan tried her best to look calm and kept her voice calm, and asked one after another: "If this is a reconciliation, what will the Queen Mother think of the Zhao family? How will Your Majesty think of your uncle? If your uncle is impeached, then what will happen to your father?"

Do you still think about the business you did in Fanbang?"

Zhao Chengyu was frightened, and his face instantly turned pale: "Mother, I..."

She never imagined that she would cause such an uproar just by ordering the kitchen maid to deliver a piece of leftover rice...

It may even involve my father!

She naturally hated Zhao Xiwei, and the thought of this wild girl participating in the wedding banquet with her made her feel as uncomfortable as if she had knocked over a five-flavor bottle.

However, compared to the failure of her father's business, her loss is nothing!

The Wei Dynasty valued literature over business. In the early years, his father's business did not improve, and Zhao Chengyu often received cold looks.

She remembered that she had to rely on Zhao Chengyan's identity to participate in the annual peony party.

When the children of those aristocratic families saw her for the first time, the enthusiasm in their eyes could not be faked.

However, when they heard that her father was doing business on the border, they put on a distant and cold smile.

Fortunately, her father's business went overseas in recent years, which attracted all the surrounding countries to show their favor to the Wei Dynasty, and she was gradually accepted by the nobles in the capital.

But the rejection and scorn she had suffered was forever engraved in her memory.

Every time Zhao Chengyu dreams about that time, he wakes up from boundless fear.

She didn't want to experience that feeling of being looked down upon again in her life.

Thinking of this, she put away the resentment in her heart and did not dare to disobey her mother's wishes. She blushed and said to Zhao Xiwei: "Sister Wei, it was Yu'er who was wrong. Yu'er should not have caused discord and misunderstood my aunt.

Sister, please forgive me."

It's all her fault for underestimating the enemy and trying to use a servant girl to exert power over this wild girl!

Seeing the annoyance on her daughter's face, Mrs. Yuan thought that she had truly realized the seriousness of the problem, and her previous harshness had softened a lot. She turned to Zhao Xiwei and said:

"Sister Wei, your sister Yu has realized her mistake. Please forgive her for her youth and ignorance for the sake of sisterhood. My aunt has been busy with business these years and has neglected to discipline her. She will be punished in the future.

Restrain her well and she won't cause you any more trouble."

With that said, she turned to call the maid Chuntao, "Although the damage is irreparable, my aunt is not willing to let you suffer this grievance in vain."

Before he could finish his words, a burst of elegant fragrance came faintly, but Chuntao was holding a tray and knelt down gently in front of him.

Mrs. Yuan stretched out her fingers and opened the silk covering it, and there were three exquisite and small hollow balls quietly placed in the black lacquered square box.

One is a nine-phoenix encircling a bead, the other is a pair of butterflies playing with a flower, and the other is a fish playing with a lotus leaf. Just looking at it from a distance, they all feel radiant and dazzling.

Zhao Xiwei has been dependent on her mother since she was a child. She rarely has the opportunity to learn about jewelry, but she also knows that these are the favorite sachet balls of young men and women nowadays.

The breeze dimmed the scent bag, and the dim moon slanted through the partitions to shine brightly.

Young men and women in the Wei Dynasty all loved beauty. If you put a sachet ball in your robe, you will have a faint fragrance filling your sleeves when you walk, making people relaxed and happy.

Yuan Shi smiled and said: "Last month your uncle got some spices from the Western Regions. He originally prepared them as a gift for the girl, but I just thought you were busy today, so I didn't have time to send them over.

"

Zhao Xiwei sighed secretly.

In the Wei Dynasty, spices were priceless treasures, and many dignitaries could only covet them. Even though she lived in the countryside, she had heard rumors of concubines in the harem asking for gold and silver.

And this spice from the Western Regions is even more praised as a rare treasure.

Just one of them was enough to attract the attention of the royal family, but Yuan was so generous and took out three of them at once!

No wonder the servants in the house said that the second lady did not give in to her husband. Her decisive power alone was beyond the comparison of ordinary women in the boudoir.

The reason why Zhao Xiwei dared to drag Zhao Chengyu to the second room to ask for an explanation was because he heard that Yuan had business talent, so he expected that she must be a person who values ​​interests.

Even so, she was still prepared for the worst.

But I didn't expect Yuan to be so decisive. In just a few words, he not only apologized neatly, but also took out rare treasures to apologize.

But Zhao Xiwei is not here for her own benefit, she wants to help her father.

"Auntie, you're welcome." She smiled and said to Mrs. Yuan, "Xiwei came to the door today not to argue with auntie about right or wrong. Xiwei really deserves to receive such a precious gift from you."

Mrs. Yuan was anxious and said in a false voice: "If you don't accept it, you just think your aunt's gift is too shabby!"

Without reaching out to hit the smiling man, Yuan knew the principles of business. She eagerly took Zhao Xiwei's hand, forced the sachet ball into her palm, and said with a smile: "Auntie is your elder, give me

You should give a gift! There is nothing you can't bear! Tomorrow your uncle comes back and ask him to bring you a fresh box of rouge paste!"

My daughter has made such a big mistake, so it would be best if she can make up for it. As long as this matter can be settled, just three sachets are nothing!

Zhao Chengyu glanced secretly out of the corner of his eyes, feeling pain as if his heart had been cut out.

This is the jade soul fragrance that she has been thinking about for a long time!

Mother gave away three pills as soon as she made her move, and this wild girl pretended not to want it?

What on earth does she want to do!

As if he heard her murmur, Zhao Xiwei sighed quietly and said: "Aunt, Xiwei came here because the eldest lady returned to her parents' home."

"The person who untied the bell must also tie the bell. If it is convenient for Auntie, take Sister Yu to the eldest princess's house and explain it. The eldest lady might figure it out."

Zhao Chengyu's face suddenly turned dark.

Yuan's pupils shrank, she was going to use her second wife's face to repair the cracks of her first wife!

An unknown anger surged in her heart, but she didn't know who to vent it to.

Although it was her daughter who was responsible for the incident, she was not willing to suffer such a dumb fate!

She didn't force Xu Yun to make peace, so why should she go to the door to apologize?

This Sister Wei is really a powerful character. The eldest princess can’t be offended, the eldest lady can’t be offended, and the prime minister can’t be offended either. Why should they just pick on the soft persimmon of their second wife!

How could a mere concubine, who was born outside, sit on her head like this?

Zhao Xiwei saw that she had a different look on her face, so he said no more, stood up and said goodbye: "It's late at night, Xiwei won't disturb Madam anymore."

After saying that, without waiting for Yuan's response, he turned around and left the main room.
