"Okay, okay, let's go find your cousin." Qian comforted her.
Hearing what she said, Yu Yuxi closed her eyes hard, relaxed her hands and dropped them to the edge of the bed, her breathing calmed down, and she looked like she was asleep while lying on the bed.
Mrs. Qian waited for a while and saw that there was no movement from her daughter. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and helped the maid to leave gently.
"Mom, let my cousin do it first." Yu Yuxi's cold voice came from the bed. It sounded the same as when she spoke in the past, no longer the arrogant and sharp look before.
"I know, don't worry, take a good rest first." Qian quickly turned around to comfort him.
Yu Yuxi did not open her eyes, but only waved her hand. Even if Qian still had a full stomach, she could only leave after seeing her daughter's weakness and exhaustion.
Hearing the footsteps leaving, Yu Yuxi slowly opened her eyes on the bed and looked gloomily at the slightly closed door.
There was a sentence that she didn't care about at the time, but now she suddenly remembered it.
In the past, she had only one true legitimate daughter in the Xuanping Hou Mansion, but now there are two. She has her maternal grandfather's family, and so does Yu Xijiao. Moreover, now Yu Xijiao has won the favor of her grandmother.
Why did she win her grandmother's favor? She had been trying to please her since she was a child, and would send any good things to her first. But in the end, her grandmother still ignored her. After so many years, even a piece of stone could warm her, but why?
Grandma is still like this, and grandma says grandma is cruel.
Even if she doesn't like her father, she is so innocent, why should she take out her anger on herself, but now? How could Yu Xijiao get something so easily when she asked for it but didn't get it.
My grandmother tried many ways to help me. When I was young, I once even went there sick to please my grandmother, but my grandmother still didn't even look at me. She was so cruel that everyone in the capital knew it.
Grandma's character is so paranoid.
But why, all of this had to be broken by Yu Xijiao.
Now that he has brought Yu Xijiao into the palace, he has almost snatched away his marriage. If he continues...does he still have a place in the Xuanping Hou Mansion?
If Yu Xijiao also falls in love with the position of Princess Duan, her grandmother will definitely fight for Yu Xijiao wholeheartedly. Her grandmother will not care about all her efforts, so what should she do at that time?
Her gentle breathing became heavy, and there were a few bloodshot eyes in her eyes. She clenched her hands. She would not allow such a thing to happen, absolutely not. Sister Clan was right about one thing, Yu Xijiao could not stay...
"Girl, what happened to the second girl just now? Why did she suddenly... seem to have been hit hard?" Qingyue asked curiously. The second girl's reaction just now was too scary.
In the carriage, Yu Xijiao's lips curled up silently: "She... must have thought of... something bad."
"The Queen has decreed a reward for the girl. What bad things can the second girl think of?" Qingyue was very puzzled. This is a good thing. She didn't see the happy smile of the Marquis just now.
"Prince Duan's decree of granting marriage has not been issued, and the second sister is anxious." Yu Xijiao answered very concisely this time, but she also got to the point of the question, and the corners of her lips curled up silently.
"Second young lady...think this is a marriage decree?" Qingyue's eyes narrowed and her voice lowered a bit unconsciously.
"It should be!" Yu Xi said delicately, with a glimmer of light in her eyes. The greater Yu Yuxi's reaction, the more powerful the counterattack. During this time, she only saw Qian's tossing, and Yu Yuxi seemed to be completely aloof from it.
Are you really staying out of it?
How can people who have taken all the benefits stay out of it?
The carriage entered the princess's residence, and Yu Xijiao got off the carriage. A carriage behind them was Nanny Xu and Mingyue, holding in their hands four of the eight gifts given by the Queen just now.
In the main courtyard, Princess An and the eldest princess were talking to Aunt Qin. When they heard that Yu Xijiao was coming, they happily sent someone out to greet her.
Aunt Qin accepted the errand and walked across the street to Yu Xijiao.
"Why are Jiao'er here again?" An and the eldest princess waited for Yu Xijiao to bow, then smiled and waved for her to sit over.
Yu Xijiao stood up straight and came over to sit down with a smile: "Grandma, don't you want to see Jiao'er?"
"Why don't you want to? I'm just afraid that if you are not in good health, you will cause trouble by going back and forth." Princess An and the eldest daughter reached out and touched their little granddaughter's head, and said gently.
The old man who has been tough all his life only looks gentle when facing his little granddaughter.
"Grandma, the Queen has given you many gifts. Jiao'er and her father discussed it and sent these to grandma." Yu Xijiao pointed at the gifts in Nanny Xu's hand.
A jade crown, a jade pendant, a glass mirror, and a set of filigree gold cups.
Aunt Xu respectfully delivered the gift to the table in the middle.
"This child, the Queen Mother and the Empress rewarded you, keep it." Princess An and the eldest princess smiled, feeling happy, not because of these things, she is the eldest princess, she has never seen any good things, and what she cares about is this
A child’s thoughts.
For so many years, although the grandfather and grandson were not in the same place, Princess An and the eldest daughter would send birthday gifts to the child every year, and would also write letters to ask about her situation.
Although she couldn't write more, one letter a year was enough.
Thinking that for so many years, my granddaughter was alone in Jiangnan and could only write one letter every year, a trace of tears filled her originally determined eyes.
"Grandma, these gifts are just right for you. Father thinks so too. There are also some jewelry. Brocade Jiao'er kept them for herself and didn't send them to you." Seeing the sadness in the eyes of An and the eldest princess, Yu Yu
Xi Jiao pulled the sleeves of An and the eldest princess and shook them gently.
"This child... Grandma is so old, how can she still use these things? They are all yours, just keep them." An and the eldest son calmed down the sadness in their eyes and said with a smile.
"Grandma, Jiao'er specially sent it here. If you don't accept it, people will laugh at you." Yu Xi said in a jiaojiao manner, pulling on the sleeves of An and the eldest princess, refusing to comply.
Seeing her lazy look, An and the eldest princess stretched out their fingers and tapped Yu Xi's delicate white forehead: "Who dares to laugh, tell grandma."
"Grandmother!" Yu Xijiao stretched out her hand to cover her forehead and looked at An and the eldest princess with watery eyes.
Seeing this, An and the eldest princess softened their hearts: "Okay, just take it first, and grandma will take it for you. If you want it later, just ask grandma."
"Okay!" Yu Xijiao agreed readily.
Princess An and the eldest princess asked people to accept the gifts, and the smile on their faces disappeared: "Is the Qian family also coming out to receive the order?"
"The Queen's decree has come, and my father asked Madam to take the decree with the eldest and second sisters." Yu Xijiao said.
Princess An and the eldest daughter asked again: "How is your second sister?"
"How did grandma know that my second sister was suffering from an emergency?" Yu Xijiao's eyes widened.
"Sudden emergency?" Princess An and the eldest daughter asked, "How come you have an emergency at such a young age?"
Yu Xijiao told what happened when Yu Yuxi suddenly fainted just now: "Grandma, I'm fine now. I saw my father when I went out. My father said he was fine. He was frightened and just rested for a while.
Just before... it looked very scary, with red eyes staring at me as if staring at an enemy."
"She glared at you?" An and the eldest princess heard the key immediately.
"At that moment, the second sister was probably unconscious, and her whole body was stiff. I happened to be behind her, and she turned her head and saw me. She looked like she was glaring at me with hatred, and then she
Passed out." Yu Xijiao came back quickly.
An and the eldest princess did not speak. They only looked at Yu Xijiao's face carefully. Seeing that there was only surprise in her eyes, she couldn't help but let out a long sigh and looked away far away.
"Jiao'er, people in the capital say that I have a cold nature and am too paranoid. I don't even get close to my only son. Not only do I not get close to my son, I don't get close to my son's family either." Princess An and the eldest princess said in a low voice.
heavy.
"Grandma, Jiao'er knows that you are not this kind of person. You are the most kind and affectionate person." A slightly cold hand held the hand of Princess An and the eldest princess.
Looking along her hand, Yu Xijiao's eyes were concerned and comforting.
The childish girl tried her best to comfort her grandmother with her cold hands.
"Yes, it actually doesn't matter. Grandma is so old. Why do you need these frivolous names? For so many years, I have always been stoic. I rarely go out of the house and I don't invite people into the house. But there are rumors about me outside.
Everyone in the capital knows about your temper."
The smiles of An and the eldest princess turned cold.
Yu Xijiao's hands froze, and she suddenly understood: "Grandma, did someone deliberately spread such words?"
"They think I care about reputation. Even for the sake of reputation, I have to treat them well. If you don't like your father, you can look at your grandson and granddaughter. After all, they are a family. After all, they are the only children. Your father does not please me. Grandson
, My granddaughter is so good, she can always please her."
Princess An and the eldest princess said in a hoarse voice.
Her speaking voice was very heavy, as if she was being suppressed by something. Even though it was just a few simple words, Yu Xijiao could inexplicably hear the bitterness and anger in them.
"Grandma..." Yu Xijiao could do nothing but reach out and hold her grandmother's hand, and called out softly.
"It's okay, there's nothing that can knock me down." Seeing the worry in her granddaughter's eyes, An and the eldest princess smiled, and her voice immediately became gentler, "Rumors and such, to me, it really doesn't matter. When I
When you have nothing, do you still worry about losing something?"
Seeing that Yu Xijiao was about to speak, An and the eldest princess shook their hands, and their eyes fell kindly on Yu Xijiao's face, "There is one thing that I didn't want to say at first, but now I can't say it. Once...
…In the earliest days, your second sister was still a cute and cute girl, and I wanted to keep her here forever. If she is not close to her son, she will not be able to live up to his expectations, and my granddaughter is still young and childish and innocent."
Yu Xijiao heard the intention behind this and did not interrupt what An and the eldest princess were saying. She leaned quietly next to An and the eldest princess and listened quietly to her explanation of the reason.
