Chapter 37

I thought it was a sure thing, but it was rejected by Zhou Yijia. Zhou Yihan was annoyed and couldn't help asking loudly: "Why? What right do you have to not take me there? We are all the daughters of the Zhou family. The post is for you. That is to say, it was given to the Zhou family, if you go, I can too!"

What she said is indeed reasonable. Nowadays, Beijing and China send invitations to invite people to be guests. Generally, a family only sends one invitation. At most, there are sisters in a family who are at odds, and the person who sends the invitation pays more attention to it. , will add two more names to the post.

Ran frowned and said nothing, she also agreed with Zhou Yihan's words.She came to the West Mansion today not to ask for opinions, she just came to inform.

"Jia'er, did Princess Chengmin say something?" Xiao Song was afraid that Yijia would upset Ran, so she hurriedly made excuses for Yijia.

Yijia nodded and said, "Big sister knows what's going on in her heart."

Zhou Yihan was a little dazed, but her eyes flashed for a moment, and she shouted loudly: "Are you angry because sister Mingyue invited me to go outing last time and didn't invite you? Your heart is too bad, is sister Mingyue not?" Inviting you, it's not that I don't allow you to go, how can you embarrass me because of this? Yijia, I'm so disappointed in you!"

"Why would Big Sister think so?" Yijia looked at Zhou Yihan in surprise, and said, "I didn't want to go for an outing and rejected Sister Mingyue. Why didn't she tell you?"

It's been a while, and Zhou Yihan is someone who only remembers the good but not the bad. Regarding the outing that day, he only remembers that Liang Mingxuan coaxed her and sent her home afterwards, and he completely forgot the reason why he coaxed her.

Her face turned red, and she pointed at Yijia, feeling ashamed and angrily not knowing what to say.

Ran sighed inwardly, I don't know when Xiao Song became enlightened, and Yijia also changed.But her own daughter was still so reckless and did not make any progress.

She pulled Zhou Yihan over and patted her hand comfortingly, but when facing Yijia, she couldn't pretend to be kind before. She had bullied her most beloved daughter like this, how could she bear it. "Jia'er, you are not young anymore, if you continue to be so ignorant, even if your stepmother doesn't teach you, your aunt will have to hire someone to teach you!"

"Sister-in-law..." Xiao Song called out.

But Ran ignored it, turned around and pulled Zhou Yihan and walked out, giving orders while walking, "Tomorrow morning, call the carriage to pick you up at the East Mansion Gate."

Xiao Song wanted to agree, but she couldn't ignore Yijia's mood, so she didn't open her mouth for a while.

However, Yijia said when Ran Shi and Zhou Yihan walked to the door, "Mother, when it comes to being ignorant, I think I am much better than my aunt. My aunt takes her stepmother one by one. I don't know, I'm afraid it is Do you think that the eldest aunt has any opinion on you, mother, or that she is deliberately trying to mislead me and make me not filial to you!"

Ran staggered and stopped.

Looking back, looking at Yijia and Xiao Song's eyes, there was disbelief and undisguised insidiousness.

Xiao Song trembled involuntarily, Yijia grabbed her hand and smiled at Ran, "Auntie, I can't take the eldest sister to the princess mansion tomorrow morning."

Zhou Yihan jumped when she heard this, but Ran's hand added force to stop her.Turning to Yijia and Xiao Song, she snorted coldly and walked away quickly.

"Jia'er, what are you..." Xiao Song was about to cry.

Yijia didn't let go of Xiao Song's hand, and said: "Mother, although I don't know why my aunt targeted our second wife, we must not show weakness too much. Otherwise, the weaker we are, the stronger she will be. In the past, I Being ignorant made my mother suffer, but in the future, I will ask my mother to join me in protecting this family."

This is also a point that Yijia, who has been reborn, can't understand. The eldest aunt and parents have no grievances, so why should they target their second wife so much.

Why teach her to confront Xiao Song?Why do you want to use her when you want to get married with the Marquis of Anping?Why did you help my grandmother find a concubine for my father, and wanted to find a skinny horse from Yangzhou?

At first, when she first came back, she thought that she was thinking about the second bedroom's family property, but her father said that the bandits she met on the way back then had nothing to do with anyone.According to Yijia's thinking, if the eldest aunt really cared about the property of the second room, she should have bought and killed her father in the first place, so why wait until now?
Isn't it more difficult to make the trip the longer it is delayed?
Yijia didn't say a few words to Mrs. Song, and someone from Dongfu came to spread the word that Mrs. Zhou wanted to see them.

Yijia smiled lightly, whispered a few words in Qiushuang's ear, and tidied things up with Mrs. Song before heading to the East Mansion.

Xiao Song walked in front all the way, although she was still afraid in her heart, but her back was straight.

What Jiaer said was right, these years, she has really suffered from this sister-in-law's loss.And now she helped the old lady to send Wang Jiaoniang here, even though the second master did not go to her room, such a woman who lived in the mansion under the name of a concubine still made her feel uncomfortable.

Now that Jia'er has stood up, as an elder, she can't be timid.

Yijia watched from behind, feeling happy for a while.

Originally, he just wanted to give Ran's eye drops, but he didn't expect to kill two birds with one stone now.

Just after entering Dongfu, Qiushuang also arrived.Yijia took the two handkerchiefs she handed over, and handed one to Xiao Song, "Mom, wipe your eyes!"

Xiao Song took it over. Although she didn't understand why, she listened to Yijia's opinion.

Just rubbing the veil lightly against the eyes, it immediately felt hot, and tears fell down involuntarily.Looking at Yijia again, her eyes were red and she was in constant tears.

Seeing the smile in Shang Yijia's eyes, Xiao Song immediately understood, and wiped it twice with the handkerchief.

As soon as Mrs. Zhou saw Mrs. Song and Yijia, the anger on her face was extinguished for a little bit, and she asked in surprise, "You... what's wrong?"

Yijia lowered her head and said nothing, Xiao Song squeezed out a smile and said, "Mother, I heard that you are looking for me and Jia'er."

Ran's heart sank, but Zhou Yihan didn't realize it, and immediately jumped out and pointed at Xiao Song: "Grandmother, it's all the second aunt's fault, because I'm dissatisfied with my mother's finding Aunt Wang for you, so I don't agree with Yijia." Take me to the Princess Mansion to attend the Peach Blossom Banquet! Grandma, this is the annual Peach Blossom Banquet, if I don’t go, I will completely lose my chance, I’m already 13 years old!”

Apart from appreciating the peach blossoms, the Peach Blossom Banquet has another meaning that everyone in Beijing knows.

This is also what Ran's confessed to Zhou Yihan just now, if she blames Yi Jia for the sake of her second brother, Mrs. Zhou will not do anything.But if it's on Xiao Song's body, it's hard to say, after all, she is not only blocking Zhou Yihan's future, but also dissatisfied with the old lady for taking a concubine for her second brother!
The old lady Zhou asked Yijia, "Jia'er, tell grandma, is it because your mother won't let you take your eldest sister to the peach blossom banquet?"

Although the tone was not affectionate, it definitely didn't look like he was very angry.

Yijia put down the veil, but she didn't intentionally make a wronged and pitiful expression, she just looked at the old lady Zhou in surprise, and said, "Why would grandma say that, it's because the elder sister misunderstood it, it's absolutely nothing, My mother repeatedly asked me to take my eldest sister there."

"You're talking nonsense!" Zhou Yihan argued forcefully.

Yijia was so frightened that she took a small step back, Xiao Song hurriedly supported her from behind, opened her mouth, but said nothing.Seeing the honest look of the second daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhou understood.She said, how could the second daughter-in-law, who had always been docile and docile by the eldest daughter-in-law, suddenly dare to refute the eldest daughter-in-law? Thinking of this, she looked at Mrs. Ran with dissatisfaction in her eyes.

First she beat the boss, then she pretended to be sick and tired and came to housekeeper, and the matter of helping the boss take concubines has been postponed until now, and this has also found a reason to frame the second daughter-in-law.

But in front of her second daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhou is still willing to give Ran some face.Not wanting to get entangled in this matter any longer, she smiled in an amicable way, and said, "It seems that Sister Han misheard, your second aunt wouldn't say that, okay, go back and look for clothes and jewelry, we will meet with you tomorrow Your sister will go to the peach blossom feast together beautifully."

Ran felt aggrieved, and knew that the more she said now, the easier it was to be wrong, so she couldn't bear it anymore.She did have something to say to Mrs. Song, but looking at Mrs. Zhou's eyes, she was also worried that it would be superfluous.

Zhou Yihan couldn't think too much in his head, but knowing that he could go to the peach blossom banquet, the expression on his face eased, and he even gave Yijia a smug smile while no one was paying attention.

Yijia suddenly let go of Xiao Song, and said loudly: "Grandmother, Jiaer hasn't finished talking yet." Seeing that the smile on Zhou Yihan's face froze, she continued: "Mom asked me to take my eldest sister. But I really can't take her there. A few days ago in the Marquis of Anping, the eldest sister offended Princess Chengmin, who also said that if she sees her in the future, she will hit her every time she sees her. I think I begged her, but I just got to know her, so I'm afraid that if I begged too much, she would be annoyed."

Ran's voice raised her voice and shouted: "Yijia, what are you talking about! You don't want to go against your mother's wishes, just to put it bluntly, why bother to ruin Sister Han's reputation!"

It is not a small crime to tarnish the elder sister's reputation.

Xiao Song also took a deep breath, and retorted loudly: "Sister-in-law be careful!"

Mrs. Zhou felt more and more confused, and asked Xiang Yijia, "Speak clearly." Her tone became harsh without knowing it.

Yijia wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and tears fell immediately. She was shocked by the heat, "Big sister, didn't you tell your aunt and grandmother about what happened in the Hou Mansion that day? Why, Why do you want to rely on my mother and me?"

Zhou Yihan was a little panicked, it wasn't like this, there was nothing at all that day, how could she be hated.She anxiously grabbed Ran's hand, and said aggrievedly: "Mother, I..."

No one can understand her appearance.

Mrs. Zhou gave her a disappointed look. "Forget it, sister Han should not go to the Peach Blossom Banquet this time." She said, "If Princess Cheng Min is offended, it will be embarrassing in the whole capital. Jiaer, when you meet Princess Cheng Min, remember to be careful Say something nice to your big sister."

Yijia nodded, her attitude was very serious, "I will."

Mrs. Zhou felt a little tired, and couldn't bear to see the tears of the second granddaughter and the grievance of the second daughter-in-law. She waved her hand, "Go down. Jia'er carefully chooses the clothes and jewelry to wear tomorrow, and Han'er is not allowed to go anywhere tomorrow. Come and accompany me, my old lady!"
