Aunt Liu was like baking a pie that night, tossing and turning, and finally made it to the next morning.
It stands to reason that the aunts in the backyard need to go to the main courtyard to pay greetings to Madam every day, but Mrs. Shangshu didn't want to see them, so she exempted them from paying greetings. Therefore, after Aunt Liu woke up, she still lay on the couch and refused to get up.
"Kui'er?" she shouted, rubbing her eyes.
"Madam, are you awake?" Kui'er walked in carrying a basin.
It turned out that the hot water had been prepared a long time ago, but Kui'er didn't hear Aunt Liu getting up, so she put the basin aside and didn't go in.
"Have you found out what happened last night?" Aunt Liu asked after her face was clean.
Kui'er nodded and whispered to Aunt Liu: "I have inquired clearly. The eldest lady is right. After the third lady went to have dinner yesterday, she stayed in the front hall to chat with the eldest lady. It was indeed because the eldest grandson was sleeping.
After that, the two of them came back to pack their things."
"Why didn't this girl go to the front hall to eat without telling me?" Aunt Liu complained.
"Madam, last night, it was Grandma Lan who personally came over to invite Third Miss. I guess that even if Third Miss wanted to come over and tell you, I'm afraid she wouldn't have the chance." Kui'er said softly.
"But why does she want to live in Xu Ling'er's yard? Don't you know how to refuse?" Aunt Liu continued.
"Madam, the third young lady must also have her own difficulties," Kui'er said.
"This damn girl, wait until she comes back to see if I break her legs." Aunt Liu said viciously.
Kui'er secretly glanced at Aunt Liu. She knew that the madam was partial to the third young master and had always been lukewarm towards the third young lady. Although she had been with the madam for a long time, she couldn't understand the madam being so partial. She was just a servant.
, she didn’t dare to contradict her master.
"Madam, breakfast is ready. You need to calm down first. Why don't you eat something first?" Kui'er said with a smile.
"That's fine." Aunt Liu replied.
After Kui'er served Madam to wash herself, she changed her clothes and made up her hair. After dressing up, she sat down at the table and started to eat.
"Have you done all the things I asked you to do for me?" Aunt Liu said in a low voice.
After eating, Aunt Liu leaned on the couch and thought about her previous plan.
Kui'er nodded and said in a low voice: "Madam, I heard that Master Jin'er usually likes to take a nap before going to play by the pool."
"Have you found someone yet?" Aunt Liu said.
"Yes, madam, don't worry, the person you are looking for is reliable, and he is my cousin. He looks familiar, and it is not easy to recognize him after something happened." Kui'er said.
"Well, since you said that, I'm relieved." Aunt Liu said with a sneer.
After the third lady had her meal early in the morning, she sat blankly in front of the window and looked at the scenery outside the window.
Xu Yu'er saw that Third Miss was worried, so she said to her: "Third Sister, let's make peace with you now that you are here. I know what you are worried about, but even if you want to stop it, you can't stop it, right?"
The third young lady raised her eyes and looked at Xu Yu'er. She knew that Xu Yu'er was right. She really wanted to stop her mother from doing something that was harmful to nature. However, her mother had always been partial to her younger brother and never felt sorry for her in her heart.
She thought about it. That day, she was kicked out by her mother after just a few words of persuasion. Her mother was considered the favored aunt in the backyard, and she had never felt that it was inappropriate for her to be ambitious. However, this time, her aunt wanted to get the family property.
She originally planned to turn a blind eye to harm people, but she couldn't bear the condemnation of her conscience. These days, she couldn't sleep well every night because she would always dream about Jin'er being killed, and she would ask herself in her dreams why she did it.
Help your aunt to kill him.
Even though she told her brother early in the morning, she was awakened by nightmares every night in the middle of the night. She was frightened every day, worried that her aunt would really kill Jin'er. But these days passed, and her aunt didn't seem to do anything.
Just when she thought her aunt was just talking, her eldest brother asked her to move to her eldest sister's yard.
It seems that my aunt is really planning to take action.
She weakly said to Xu Yu'er: "Sister, what do you think I should do?"
"Leave everything to eldest brother. Don't worry, since eldest brother has promised you that he will save Aunt Liu's life, he will definitely do it." Xu Yu'er said.
"Sister, it was all my fault in the past. I don't know what happened, but it was like I was possessed by a demon. Now that I think about it, I was so hateful before," the third lady confessed.
She had been reflecting on what she had done in the past few days, always feeling that she was so abominable. She did not expect that she could be so arrogant and domineering, and even self-righteous. She was just a little concubine in the Shangshu Mansion, but she was always
She was thinking of marrying into the prince's palace. What a joke!
"Sister, you were still young at that time, so you naturally looked at things superficially. Especially when you grew up next to Aunt Liu, her thoughts would always affect you. Through this incident, you finally woke up, which means that
You have grown up." Xu Yu'er advised.
She didn't want to put too much pressure on the third lady. Her eyes had been dark these past few days, and it seemed like she hadn't had a good night's rest.
""Sister, I just woke up now, isn't it too late?" said the third lady.
"Of course not. As long as you can wake up, it's never too late. Don't think too much. I brought you here just to let you rest peacefully. Don't worry about Jin'er. Big brother will not let anything happen to Jin'er.
Yes." Xu Yu'er persuaded.
"Eldest sister actually knows that I am worried about Jin'er. Yes, I am worried that my aunt will attack him at any time. I have nightmares every day and worry about Jin'er's safety." The third lady said worriedly.
"Third sister, please believe me just once." Xu Yu'er said.
"Yes." The third lady responded.
"Let's go to the main courtyard to meet our mother." Xu Yu'er said.
"It's this hour, isn't it a little late to meet my mother?" the third lady asked.
"No, it's just right to go now." Xu Yu'er said with a smile.
The third lady nodded, straightened her clothes and prepared to follow Xu Yu'er to the main courtyard.
When the two were about to walk out, Xu Yuer noticed that the third lady was still wearing old clothes. Of course, this was not because the third lady deliberately brought the old clothes to attract Xu Yuer's attention, but that she did not have new clothes to wear. In fact, Mrs. Shangshu
I have never treated them badly, and will tailor-make three sets of clothes for them every four seasons, and there will be twelve sets of new clothes a year, not including those made for the New Year. As for the third lady still wearing old clothes, it is because Aunt Liu is too
Eccentricity. Every year when the aunt who comes to do the customization comes over, she will give her a favor and make a few sets less for the third young lady. The few sets she saves will be made for the third young master.
Xu Yu'er stopped and said a few words to the maid next to her. The maid nodded, then turned and entered the house.
"Sister, did you forget something?" the third lady asked.
"You come in with me first, you will know in a moment." After Xu Yu'er said this, she pulled the third lady into the house.
After the two people entered, the third lady discovered that the maid next to Xu Yu'er had prepared two sets of clothes and put them on the tray. The third lady didn't know what she meant, so she looked at Xu Yu'er.
Xu Yu'er said apologetically: "Third sister, I have actually heard of those shady things about Aunt Liu. However, I really didn't care about you before. Don't blame my sister for being cold, it's..."
Before Xu Yuer could finish her words, the third lady took over and said: "Sister, I am also a younger sister who is ignorant. How can I blame my elder sister?"
"In that case, don't push me back and forth. If you wait a little longer, mother will be anxious." Xu Yu'er said with a smile.
Xiao'er, who was beside Tao'er and Third Miss, helped the two masters quickly change into clothes. Xu Yu'er's eyes lit up, as if these clothes were custom-made for Third Sister, they were so pretty. The two looked at each other and smiled.
We went to the main courtyard together.
When Aunt Liu knew that the third lady had gone to the main courtyard again, she was so angry that she smashed the cup in her hand to pieces.
And no one knew about the situation in the main courtyard. They could only bribe the servants who left the main courtyard to ask. But what they didn't know was that most of the information they bribed from the servants in the main courtyard this time was false.
The main courtyard is now filled with joy. Because the second young master has brought news, telling his wife that the master can come back at any time. His Highness Pluto has spoken, and for Xu Ziming's plan, the master can return to the house after the affairs of the Shangshu Mansion are over.
The two people came to the main courtyard and went straight into the house. Madam Shangshu was sitting on the sofa at this time. As soon as the two people came in, Madam Shangshu noticed their clothes. The three girls today looked very delicate and pretty.
She personally selected the material for Yu'er's outfit, and she didn't expect that it would be so suitable for San Yatou. She doesn't know why, but the more she looks at San Yatou, the more she likes her. Her tone of voice when talking to San Yatou is from the bottom of her heart.
Genuinely gentle.
"Why did you come here?" Mrs. Shangshu said with a smile.
"Mom, I asked my sister to choose several sets of clothes. These two suits are the best, so I put them on for you to see." Yu'er said with a smile.
"Three girls, this dress suits her very well. When you buy more clothes in the future, you can choose more of this color," said Mrs. Shangshu.
"Mom, it's almost the end of the year, can my sister and I make a few more sets of clothes?" Xu Yu'er said.
"Sister..." Miss San didn't know what to say.
"Okay, this time I will ask my aunt to go to your yard to measure the third girl." Mrs. Shangshu said.
"Thank you, mother." The third girl said movedly.
"Well, you just stay in the yard for a while. When there is news over there, we can go over and put on a show."
Mrs. Shangshu said, "Yes." The two of them responded in unison.
"Mom, why don't you see Jin'er?" Xu Yu'er asked.
"Your eldest brother took him back, changed his clothes and sent him back." Mrs. Shangshu said.
The three of them sat in the room and chatted for a while. Madam Shangshu didn't know if Miss San was living well in Yu'er Courtyard, and was worried that she would be burdened, so she persuaded her, "Third girl, were you used to living there last night?"
.”
"My eldest sister takes good care of me, so there's nothing I'm not used to," the third lady said with a smile.
Although she grew up with her biological mother, she never felt the warmth of her aunt.
"That's good. If you like it, you can stay longer. Seeing that you sisters have such a good relationship, I feel relieved. However, there should be Ling'er who is similar to you. Third girl, Ling'er is usually in the backyard.
