Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 539 Scheming (2 more)
Xu Jia's opening speech made the whole room embarrassed by Xu Jia's prologue.

Tang Yuan's stiff face has not yet eased up.

Qiao looked Xu Jia up and down, not knowing what she felt in her heart.

Seeing that no one was talking, Tang Wenji handed the red envelope he had prepared earlier to his daughter-in-law, and said a few innocuous words.

Qiao Shi came to her senses, and handed over her red envelope to the housewife, asking her to give it to Xu Jia.

Amidst the embarrassment, father-in-law Tang Wenji stood up and left beforehand with an excuse.

Qiao Shi couldn't just leave like a man. Sipa covered her lips and coughed. Just as she was about to speak, her son snatched her away.

Tang Yuan expected that Xu Jia would not leave without an explanation, so he called the housekeeper in with a gloomy face, "Get out those servants who gossip, and punish each of them with thirty boards."

Since last night, he has felt that the words of the new wife are very targeted, and he doesn't know if he has noticed something.

If she can't do what she wants today and make an example to the monkeys to help her get in the right position, maybe something will happen later.

When the housekeeper went out, it didn't take long for him to find out the servants who had pointed fingers at Xu Jia before, and two of them were actually rough envoys from the main courtyard.

Although he is not a confidant, he is a member of his own courtyard after all, so being punished like this will inevitably lose face.

Mrs. Qiao looked at Tang Yuan, "Is the [-]th board too heavy? After all, it's not a big deal. I can understand that you have to support the bride, but it was bloody from the first day. I'm afraid it will make people People below have grudges."

Tang Yuan pretended to be in trouble, and his eyes fell on Xu Jia.

Xu Jia sneered.

It really is a good pair of mother and son who cooperate with each other tacitly, and they throw the question back in a few sentences. If she insists on fighting, she will be relentless, and there is no tolerance. To say that letting go of those servants is equivalent to admitting their accusations and ridicule of her. Such a weak and easy-to-manage softie will only have less prestige and status in the Tang family in the future.

Taking a sip of tea lightly, Xu Jia said casually: "They are insulting the face of the second master, whether it is worth the thirty boards or not, the second master has the final say, and the concubine has no way to intervene."

Isn't it just pushing each other, who wouldn't?

As soon as Xu Jia finished speaking, he saw that Tang Yuan's face darkened a bit, his brows were furrowed, and he said sharply, "Add another twenty boards!"

Even Mrs. Qiao was frightened by her son's imposing manner today, forgot to drink tea, forgot to say anything, and was completely dumbfounded.

It wasn't until the screams of the servant being tortured by the stick came from outside that she was pulled back.

Fifty board plus body, there is the old and frail woman, who died long ago and was dragged out bloody.

Xu Jia never changed his expression, his brows and eyes lowered quietly.

It was clear that she opened her mouth to cause trouble, but when it came to an end, she acted like she had nothing to do with her. Qiao secretly stared at Xu Jia, wishing she could crush the teacup in her hand.

He failed at the beginning, and was suppressed instead of being suppressed. Qiao's heart was filled with anger, and he didn't bother to look at Xu Jia anymore. He waved his hands and said that he was tired, and asked the two of them to retreat.

Xu Jia got up slowly, and after paying her respects and resigning, she followed Tang Yuan out of the main courtyard, and the two walked on the tree-lined path back to Zhilanyuan.

Tang Yuan originally thought that this woman should have something to say to herself when she caused a commotion in the main courtyard just after entering the mansion, but she didn't intend to speak up at all, and she looked at ease.

What he wants to marry is a puppet who can be manipulated at will to pave the way for Qingyu in the future, not a wife who comes to show off her might.

Thinking of this, Tang Yuan couldn't help wondering whether Qingyu misjudged the person, or he married the wrong person.

Xu Shi is completely different from what Qingyu described. Not only is she not soft and hard to handle, but she is also full of hard thorns, and she has a mouthful of iron teeth and copper teeth that can speak well.

The more he thought about it, the worse Tang Yuan's complexion became. His eyes were mixed with coldness, and he looked at Xu Jia, "Is Second Mistress satisfied with giving such a big blow on the first day?"

Xu Jia looked back with a half-smile, "Why, is Second Master blaming me?"

After the words fell, Xu Jia saw the regret in his eyes, he was regretting marrying her.

I only regret it now, haven't you heard that asking God is easy and sending God away is difficult?

Xu Jia said frankly: "I did this, but it was all for the good of the second master."

Tang Yuan obviously didn't appreciate it, and his face was still sullen.

Whether he likes to listen or not, Xu Jiawu said to himself: "The old man is a great Confucianist in the world, he has written countless masterpieces, and has many disciples. He has traveled abroad to promote academics these years, and he has already made the Tang family one of the best literary families in Dachu. Noble people, such a high-profile family, naturally can't tolerate a single trace of dirt, otherwise, once someone finds out, it will not only damage the interests of the person, but the entire Tang family. Don't underestimate the second master. Those tongue-chewing mouths today, a three-inch tongue can harm a seven-foot body, today they can rip your face off so that you won't come to power, maybe one day they can throw the faces of the entire Tang clan on the street and let others trample."

Tang Yuan's attention was on the sentence "such a high-profile family naturally cannot tolerate a single trace of dirt". After listening to it, he felt cold in his heart and sweated profusely. He forgot to doubt Xu Jiajie's general daughter Why is there such a foresight.

When she regained her senses, Xu Jia had already gone far away, and only the faint fragrance left by her body remained in the air.

He was stunned for a while, and was about to go back to the study, when he saw a little man staggering towards him not far away, shouting, "Second Uncle."

His soft voice melted his heart.

Tang Yuan's gloomy eyes suddenly softened, and a smile appeared on his face, and he asked him, "Why is Yong'er here?"

Tang Yong pursed her lips aggrievedly, "Second Uncle said he would come to accompany Yong'er last night, but he never came. Mammy said that Second Uncle married a bride, and Second Uncle definitely does not want Yong'er, nor mother."

Hearing this, Tang Yong's complexion changed, and he quickly glanced around. Seeing that no one was passing by, he bent down, raised his fingers and made a silent gesture, and said in a low voice: "What you said before, can't be repeated in the future. Talk nonsense, do you hear? Otherwise, Second Uncle will send you to another place now, so that you will never see me again. "

Tang Yong was frightened, her eyes were full of tears, and she hurriedly said that she didn't dare.

Only then did Tang Yuan smile, and asked him if he had breakfast, if not, let the kitchen make it.

While talking, the two uncles and nephews came to the study. Tang Yuan hugged his nephew on his lap, picked up a thread-bound book and planned to teach him to read.

Just at this time, the confidant reported that someone had come from the Waizhuang.

Tang Yuan's heart skipped a beat, Wen Sheng asked Tang Yong to sit still and go out by himself.

The one who came was Jiang Qingyu's capable maid, Yuanyang, with a veiled hat on her head and a light veil covering her shoulders, so it was difficult for others to recognize her.

The mandarin duck didn't stay for long, handed Tang Yuan the things the master asked to bring, and left.

Tang Yuan went back to the study and opened the square wooden box. Inside was a mahogany comb on the beige silk cloth.

When he gave Jiang Qingyu this comb back then, she asked what she meant, and he said that the comb represented lovesickness.

Now that Qingyu asked someone to bring the comb to him instead of returning it, the meaning was self-evident.

Tang Yuan felt guilty, he had promised to see Qingyu last night, but because of the bedclothes, Mrs. Xu said "like the new and dislike the old", so angry that he forgot about it.

After staring at the mahogany comb for a while, Tang Yuan put Xu Jia's previous words behind him, determined to find a way to get Qingyu to marry in as soon as possible.

Xu Jia made such a big fight on the first day, the maids and women in the yard naturally didn't dare to be scornful anymore, and stood up one by one to show their loyalty. In order to show their face in front of the second grandmother, a rough woman came secretly Tell Xu Jia that the second master just went to the corner gate and met a woman wearing a veiled hat.

Even though the mother-in-law didn't know who the woman was, Xu Jia could guess without seeing it that it was Yuanyang, the big maid beside Jiang Qingyu.

Yuanyang often came out in disguise to run errands for Jiang Qingyu.

This time, we will choose to come on the day after Tang Yuan's wedding. It must be that Tang Yuan did not leave his bride behind on the wedding night to meet her in the foreign village like in his previous life. Jiang Qingyu was flustered.

I don't know whether it should be said that Jiang Qingyu's tricks are amazing, or that the brothers of the Tang family are too stupid to be played around by the same woman.

A few years ago, Tang Yuan had a serious illness. Jiang Qingyu was going to be married to celebrate. At that time, Tang Yuan's elder brother Tang Xiao was the one who greeted him. Tang Xiao was a talented person, so he used a plan to cook rice with Tang Xiao. Tang Xiao woke up after being drunk and found out that he had made a big mistake, so he could only blame Jiang Qingyu for the mistake.

Later, Tang Yuan's condition gradually improved and he began to participate in scientific examinations.

Jiang Qingyu saw that he was not only rich and handsome, but also talented and promising, so she found an opportunity to secretly tell Tang Yuan that she was forced to become Tang Xiao's woman as a last resort.

Not only did Tang Yuan not doubt it, but he felt sorry for her more and more. Before Tang Xiao was alive, the two had flirted with each other, and after Tang Xiao died, he was even more unscrupulous. Jiang Qingyu even went to the Waizhuang for the convenience of a tryst, thinking that Tang Xiao was keeping a festival.
