Recently, Qiao Yuyan began to feel that she seemed to have misjudged Aunt Pei all along.
Through this period of observation, she discovered that this Pei Yayi seemed to be different from the one she had known before.
In her previous life, Pei Yayi was extremely prosperous. As an aunt in the Qiao family, she properly acted as the hostess and firmly held the right to speak in the inner house of the Qiao family.
Qiao Yuyan always thought that this was her purpose. Her pursuit was to frame the Xu family, capture Qiao Weisheng's heart, and control the servants above and below her.
In this life, almost all her roads have been blocked, and her life has not been taken. Firstly, there is no suitable opportunity, and secondly, Qiao Yuyan feels that she still has not been cruel enough.
But who would have known that suddenly one day, this man would get up again, in a way that no one could have imagined.
Naturally, being able to rely on noble people in the palace may just be a sign of good luck.
But sometimes, luck is strength, who can say clearly?
But now, it's even more difficult for her to see through.
Qiao Yuning was married into the Wen family as a concubine. Even though she was a noble concubine, she was still inferior to others, but she didn't seem to be sad about it.
Regarding Mrs. Xu, she was still as cautious and cautious as before, with a flattering smile, and seemed happy to be rejected, but she knew very well that Mr. Xu would never treat her the same way as before.
Not to mention Qiao Weisheng, she could hardly even see him in person, but this person was never late, every day, he was very considerate in everything he sent, and he didn't seem to mind the other person at all.
manner.
This behavior of hers doesn't look like she has any intention, but it seems like a habit, just like some people are used to taking a walk after eating.
But it was precisely because of this that Qiao Yuyan became unfathomably wary of her.
At this moment, she came over to talk to Wen Tingyuan inexplicably, which made her sense of crisis come out again.
Qiao Yuyan took a step forward and quietly hid Wen Tingyuan behind her, "My aunt has seen a lot of people outside since she was a child, and I'm afraid that everyone she meets will feel kind to her."
This was clearly referring to her previous embarrassment. The smile on Aunt Pei's face was a little stagnant, but it was only for a moment. She smiled and nodded.
Before she could speak again, Qiao Yuyan said with a cold face: "But regardless of whether she is kind or not, my aunt should not forget her identity. You are my father's aunt. In this garden, you take the initiative to talk to my husband. Yes
Isn’t it a little too unruly?”
She spoke harshly and didn't care about the occasion, but Aunt Pei didn't mind at all, and even the smile on her face didn't change at all, "The big girl is much better now than when she first came here, and there are no rules or anything like that."
She is more knowledgeable than anyone else, so I will naturally listen to the older girl."
After saying that, Shi Shiran left, but before leaving, he still stared at Wen Tingyuan's face several times.
Qiao Yuyan knew that Wen Tingyuan had never been willing to talk to women outside. Because of his outstanding appearance, they had caused trouble many times when they traveled together.
So after Aunt Pei left, she saw his worried expression, and she expected it, "Ignore her, I can't see through her now, but... in a few days it will be the day when Princess Jiahe comes out of the cabinet, you still don't
Go back to Wen’s house?”
Although to the outside world, Wen Tingyuan has shown his face in front of everyone, and everyone knows that he is the sixth son of Mr. Wen.
But in fact, he has been living in the yard behind Mengpo Zhai, and the business matters are unclear for a while.
Last time at Mrs. Wen's birthday party, he showed up at the Wen family just to make both of them look better.
Now that Princess Jiahe is going to marry into the Wen family, he should still show up, but what about in the future? Will he still live outside?
Qiao Yuyan knew that he hated the Wen family in his heart, but according to the inference from his previous life, his biological mother's death should have nothing to do with Mrs. Wen.
The Wen family is now prosperous. If he can return to the Wen family and have a good relationship with his brothers, it will be of great help to his career.
Since he wants to enter an official career, this path will obviously be much easier.
Wen Tingyuan looked at her seriously, "Do you want me to go back?"
Qiao Yuyan thought for a while, but shook her head, "I don't want you to go back, and I don't recommend you to still live outside. It all depends on you. If you are not happy when you go back, don't force it.
It’s convenient, there’s no harm in going back.”
After hearing her answer, Wen Tingyuan was silent for a moment, and finally said, "I was going to tell you, but I plan to move back this time?"
"Decided?"
"Yes." He nodded lightly, "After Jiahe has entered the door, it's time to consider your affairs and mine. You will be living in the inner courtyard for a long time in the future, so why don't I help you find out first."
For this reason, Qiao Yuyan didn't know how to respond for a while, so she simply talked to her about Princess Jiahe's marriage.
After all, it was a princess wedding, and Princess Jiahe had indeed always been favored by the emperor before.
Therefore, the Ministry of Rites was very attentive to the princess's evening ceremony.
The Holy Emperor also gave the princess a palace, but it is being renovated. Therefore, when the princess gets married, she will live in the Wen family first. As for the future, it depends on the mood of the princess's consort.
The Wen family specially set up a large area to build a courtyard for the princess and the consort, but unexpectedly the palace refused.
It means the princess. The princess said that although she is classified as the daughter of the emperor, once she marries into her husband's family, she should abide by the rules of a woman, be filial to her parents-in-law, respect her elders, and not be overly public or highlight her differences.
He also specifically ordered people to treat the Wen family like other sisters-in-law and not to be overly extravagant.
Then the courtyard was laid out to the west of the long house.
Although it is not advisable to be extravagant, as the emperor's daughter, how can she be so casual in getting married?
Therefore, on the day before the evening ceremony, there were palace officials coming and going, busy decorating the new house, and the Wen family did not even bother to do anything.
On the other hand, the Wen family was very frightened, fearing that something was wrong, which would cause trouble in the palace and spoil the impression.
The old lady came here in person several times, sometimes to ask people to come over for help, sometimes to inquire about the princess's preferences.
Qiao Yuning was unable to move forward while holding Chenxing in her arms. The woman sent over by Mrs. Wen almost had her eyes fixed on her.
"Auntie, you should be more peaceful. The princess will come in tomorrow. With the mistress in this courtyard, everything should be in order."
Qiao Yuning gave her a cold look and said nothing. After getting along with her for half a month, she also realized that this woman was like a loach. No matter how ugly she said, she still smiled.
She looked at the way Qiao Yuning stretched her neck and said with a smile: "As long as you look at me like this, aunt, don't come forward. If something goes wrong, it will ruin the mistress's impression of you."
, Aren’t you the one who will suffer in the future?”
