Yan Qing, who had just returned home, had not yet sorted out her thoughts when she heard a shocking news: the fifth lady, Yan Xueyu, was sent back by her husband's family because of "jealousy"!
That night, Yan Qing was tossing and turning. She felt that she was more nervous than her fifth sister, and no one came to the house.
The next day, still no one came. The fifth lady dressed up and waited all day in vain.
On the morning of the third day, the fifth lady secretly asked the maid to go back to her husband's house for a visit. She was afraid that her husband had not come home at all and did not know her whereabouts, or that her parents-in-law were causing trouble and did not tell her husband the truth. She only said that she wanted to go back to her parents' house.
.
The maid ran back crying and said that the concubine had already entered the door. The uncle had no intention of looking for the fifth lady. He also said that he knew that his wife had been sent back to her parents' home, and he said that he would never return her love!
The fifth lady felt like she was struck by five thunders!
She had always thought that it was the Fang family who took the initiative to propose to marry her, and that Fang Liang and she still had some affection for each other. Even if they occasionally took action, it was because of drunkenness and immorality, which was harmless. Who knew that it was not what she always thought, and she continued to do it on her own in vain.
She pretended to be peaceful and told herself that it would be fine after the first year of running in, and her parents-in-law would always appreciate her hard work.
Who knew fate would play such a big joke on her!
The fifth lady asked the maid to go out and guard the house so that no one could be seen, and then locked herself in the house for a whole day.
On the fourth day, at dawn, she got up, washed herself, changed her clothes, called her dowry maid to call the coachman, and went directly back to Fang's house.
Yan Qing was worried and followed quietly.
When they were about to go out, Miss Six caught up and said, "I'm afraid it will be a burden to take you with you. I have Seventh Sister to look after Fifth Sister."
Yan Qing said righteously: "Sixth sister is too polite, she is also my fifth sister."
The Fang family is a middle-class family. Fang Liang's father is just a low-ranking official, but Fang Liang is not bad. Now he has won the imperial examination and will wait for the exam in two years. The Yan family also regarded Fang Liang as a talented person.
And he had some academic qualifications, so he betrothed the fifth lady to him. And he has been mentioning him frequently in the past year, introducing him to famous teachers for guidance.
It is extremely heartless for him to repay kindness with hatred.
The fifth lady was expressionless all the way. She wanted to make the final fight and the final defense.
Zhu'er was the eldest maid of the Fifth Miss. She had a steady and careful temperament. At this moment, she said with some worry: "Miss, what should we do if Fang's house doesn't open the door when we go back like this?"
Fifth Miss said: "The Fang family's door is not very strong either."
Zhu'er was suddenly stunned. She blinked for a long time before she realized what was happening. She excitedly approached Yan Xueyu and asked, "Little... miss, are you going to use force if the Fang family doesn't let you in?"
The daughters of the Yan family are also talented in both civil and military affairs, but their qualifications vary.
Among the daughters of the Yan family, it is natural that Yan Qingzheng has the highest level of cultivation and is the best in martial arts, but among the rest, only the delicate daughters like Sifang are really more skilled in martial arts.
Because the Yan family's daughters learned martial arts after Nalan Lianyue entered the family, the older the daughter, the shorter the time to learn martial arts. The fifth, sixth and seventh ladies are about the same age and have been learning martial arts for a long time. They really still have some skills.
of.
"The reason for being so forbearing in the past was just for the sake of our relationship as husband and wife. I thought that after we get along, we can always respect each other as guests. But this is not the reason why they humiliated me like this!"
The fifth lady's face is as cold as frost. She just hopes to be a good wife and mother. Don't all men like women who are as gentle as water? What kind of lady is she who fights with her husband all day long just because she has the skills?
This was her understanding before today.
But now she feels that maybe she was too naive in the past.
It's not that she hasn't thought about asking her parents to come forward, but she has pushed her parents away so many times before and insisted on her own opinion. Now she has to rely on her parents again. She Yan Xueyu is not so shameless!
Now that everything has been thought out clearly, it is naturally best to resolve it yourself. It’s not that you don’t have the ability, and it’s not that you are unreasonable. Why do you have to wrong yourself and discredit your parents’ family!
Zhu'er looked at the face of the fifth young lady, and suddenly she felt a little sympathy for the uncle of the other family who didn't know what he would face in the future. Of course, it was only a little bit.
The carriage gurgled forward, and Yan Xueyu's momentum continued to rise. She recalled her marriage life of just one year. The more she thought about it, the more angry she felt, the more she thought about it, the more worthless she felt, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt...
My face is burning!
I really don’t know how I could be so stubborn at that time, with such a completely different attitude towards my mother’s family and my husband’s family, so indifferent between closeness and distance...
She took a deep breath. Today's incident must not be let go. If she cannot calm her husband's family and her husband in one breath, there will be no peace for the family from now on.
Yan Qing was unaware of the changes in Miss Fifth's heart. She hung far behind the car and followed leisurely.
The door of Fang's house was closed, but there were red lanterns hanging, and the festoons had not been removed. It was obvious that it was a way to show respect to the new concubine. It was just a concubine, and it was publicized as a happy event.
Yan Xueyu got off the carriage in front of Fang's house and told the groom to wait here. He could not go back to Yan's house until there was no order for an hour.
Zhu'er and Qi'er were supporting her, one on the left and the other on the right. Yan Xueyu took a deep breath and said, "Zhu'er, go knock on the door."
"Yes!" Pearl responded, then walked up the steps and knocked on the door.
A boy inside answered and asked who it was.
"Young madam is back, open the door quickly," Zhuer said.
The young man paused for a moment and said: "The master and madam did not say that the young lady is coming back. Please wait a moment, young lady, while I go and ask."
Zhu'er glanced at the fifth young lady, saw her hesitantly nodded, and said: "Brother, go quickly, the young lady is waiting."
"Okay!" The boy's footsteps faded away.
After a while, the boy came back, but said through the door: "Sister Zhu'er, the master said...said..."
"What did you say?" Pearl asked.
"Tell me to let the young lady come in through the back door..." The young man thought it was too much to bully someone, so he spoke in a low voice.
Yan Xueyu stepped forward and asked, "Where is the young master?"
"Back to Madam, the young master...the young master hasn't gotten up yet." The boy's voice was more respectful.
"It's almost midnight, you haven't gotten up yet?"
"yes……"
"Is this always the case these days?"
"yes……"
"Go and tell the young master that I'm back, but my father-in-law asked me to come in through the back door and see what the young master says." This was Yan Xueyu's last test and the last chance for Fang Liang.
"I don't dare to disturb this...little one."
"Go ahead. If you have any questions, I'll protect you."
"This...Okay, Madam, please wait a moment."
This time the young man went away for a longer time, and when he came back he muttered: "Young Master...Young Master said, everything must be obeyed by Master!"
Yan Xueyu was silent for a moment.
The young man might have felt sorry for her, and thinking of her usual kindness, he whispered to her, "Young madam, why don't you listen to the master first, and then talk about it after you get home."
Yan Xueyu laughed at himself, saying that he had brought it upon himself to get to where he was now, and even the janitor at her husband's house began to sympathize with him.
Her smile widened a little, whether it was for herself or for the upcoming farce.
"You step back and stand behind the wall." Yan Xueyu said.
"Huh?" The boy didn't know why.
But Pearl understood it and said: "Brother, please step back. It's best to hide behind the wall and don't stick your head out!"
There were also some lively neighbors passing by at this moment, and they stopped not far away to watch.
"Look, the Fang family's daughter-in-law has been kicked out for a few days, and now she's back and she doesn't even open the door."
"Isn't that right? I just heard that you have to enter through the back door..."
"The Fang family can be considered a serious family, and this daughter-in-law is considered a low-income family. At first, she was so proud that she could marry the daughter of the Yan family, but now she is so messed up..."
"A serious daughter-in-law actually wants to enter through the back door, but the concubine that day came in through the front door..."
"It's really unruly. I never noticed it before!"
"I don't know what will happen to Miss Yan's family..."
"What else can I do! This person is willing to be beaten and scolded... He must have gone around to the back door... Oh my god!"
Before the man finished speaking, Yan Xueyu took a step back, quickly stepped forward, and kicked the wooden door open with one kick!
The huge sound caused people to scream in surprise on the small road where people were coming and going!
Yan Xueyu looked at the half-door that was still swinging, and moved her ankles. She had not practiced for a long time, and she was indeed a little rusty, and her ankles hurt a little.
But it doesn’t get in the way, it doesn’t stop you from continuing to bully people!
The boy felt a chill on his forehead. Although he hid obediently just now, he couldn't restrain his curiosity and was about to stick his head out. A door panel flew over his head and hit the screen wall and shattered to pieces!
His feet softened and he knelt down immediately. Yan Xueyu happened to walk in front of him. He was stunned when he saw this: "Why do you need to give such a big gift? Get up quickly. This matter has nothing to do with you. Keep your door shut."
The boy responded tremblingly and watched Yan Xueyu enter the second entrance with hanging flowers in an imposing manner.
He stood up holding on to the wall, feeling deeply grateful that he didn't look down on others, otherwise he would have been kicked in the door without warning, and how would he have survived?
Zhu'er and Qi'er looked at each other and smiled. This is the treatment that Miss Yan's family should enjoy in her husband's family!
Mr. Fang and Mrs. Fang were drinking tea in the front hall. They were startled when they heard the noise. They were about to send someone to ask, but they saw that everyone stepped back, looking like they had seen a ghost. They were about to scold them, but they saw someone in the yard.
The person who walked in carelessly turned out to be the daughter-in-law, who had always been a coward, and she suddenly had a stern look on her face.
"Mr. Yan! Why are you so rude! Is this the kind of tutor your Yan family has? Didn't I tell you to come in through the back door?" After that, Master Fang said to the servant again: "Tell the young lady to go back to the backyard quickly, and then
Go to the front and see who's making the noise."
Several servants hesitated for a moment, and one of them stepped forward to pull her away, but Pearl kicked her into the crook of her leg. She cried out in pain and fell to the ground.
"You can touch the young lady, too?" Pearl withdrew her foot.
They also learned kung fu, but their master didn't do anything, so they naturally had no choice but to swallow their anger. But now it's different. The master wants to confront the vicious parents-in-law, and as maids, they can also vent their anger!
Mr. Fang stood up excitedly: "Okay! You bitch, how dare you do something!"
Mrs. Fang also pointed at the three masters and servants who had walked in and cursed: "Shameless thing! How shameless! Who asked you to come back! How dare you act in our Fang house and beat people!"
Yan Xueyu didn't say anything, but first saluted the two elders: "My daughter-in-law, please send my regards to my parents-in-law."
