Ye Jiayao sat down and before she had a sip of tea, Qiao Xi came in.
“The second mistress, little Ya may go to invite madam here for the third mistress has been crying all the time.”
Ye Jiayao seems calmly, ” Let her go, but it’s just going to be trouble our madam again.”
When You came, Ye Jiayao stood in the courtyard, facing the door of Liu Li’s room, and her wailing came out through the curtain one after another.
” How could you do like that? You even didn’t realize to go in and persuade her when Liu Li cried so sadly, ” You rebuked.
Ye Jiayao bowed her head and said nothing.
” Never be a wise guy! You always screw up such tiny things.” You glared at her and sped toward the house, with little Ya opening the curtain one step ahead.
Qiao Xi really wanted to be outraged by the injustice done to the second mistress. Had the second mistress do anything wrong?Clearly,someone was malicious, the madam was too eccentric.
Ye Jiayao shook her head at her and ordered, ” Qiao Xi, you go to the posthouse and tell princess Ruan that I’m afraid I can’t go there today. You can let Jiang Yue go if the princess wants to learn something, .”
Qiao Xi was worried about the second mistress and said with hesitation: ” Can you let Xiangtao send the message?”
Ye Jiayao tuted : ” How dare you resist my orders?”
Qiao Xi had no way, so she had to bend a knees and go to work.
The reason why Qiao Xi was sent away was that her knew the twists and turned in this event best.and look at Qiao Xi’s defiant expression on her face. Later,this girl might not be able to control her resentment and express support for her when madam rebuked her, so it’s the best choice to sent her away to avoid the accusation for butting madam.
After a wick of incense burned, the crying stopped and quieted down. After a while, Mother Sun took You out.
You’s face seemed to be covered with frost. She walked past Ye Jiayao, and said coldly, ” Follow me.”
Ye Jiayao silently followed You into the second bedroom and stood with her head down beside You.
You had a long history of dissatisfaction with her, and today it was beyond endurance.
” Second son’s wife, I always thought you were intelligent and familiar with etiquette. I didn’t expect you to be so petty and to use different face when facing different events” You said coldly.
Mother Sun looked at the second mistress with bitterness.
The second mistress did do something wrong and couldn’t feel the lady’s painstaking efforts, but the madam’s words were too bitter.
” Mother taught me and I shouldn’t have any objection, but I didn’t dare to bear the charges you pointed out.” Ye Jiayao was courteous and modest with a calm tone.
” Look,you still dare to answer back!As the second older brother’wife, you should have more care when your brother’s wife is pregnant, but you?Visit Mingxiu’s house day in and day out. If I hadn’t urged you many times, you wouldn’t have set foot here even once.What’s worse,you often refuse to help when I hope you make something to eat. Do you dare say that you did your duty as a sister – in – law?Grabbing the past grudges, what was not a petty crime?” You accused.
” Don’t you know LiuLi is sad now?You have never been a mother.So you don’t know the pain of losing your child.That’s OK.But you should see how weak LiuLi is now. Even if she loses her temper, you should let her go. But what is the truth? You speak angrily to her once by once. She is the golden body now! How many heads do you have to offset your crime if you make her angry to hell?” The more You say, the more angry You become, the more unstable You’s breath was.
Mother Sun hurriedly rubbed her back and said, ” Madam, you can slowly told to the second mistress,she will listen to you.”
” She will listen to me?She’s more than once or twice.She was very concerned about Princess Ruan, who can’t have any relationship with her, but ignore her family. ” You was staring straightly at Ye Jiayao.
Ye Jiayao knelt down slowly: ” Mother, please calm down and don’t get angry. That’s the sin of me.”
” Your sins?So interesting.”
“I admit that I didn’t come and hid on my purpose, but does the mother ever think about why I did like that?” Ye Jiayao confessed.
She knew very well that LiuLi will definitely check where the rumors came from afterwards and trace their origins. It was not difficult to find her. It was better to confess to You earlier than to be exposed by LiuLi.
You was even more angry when she admitted it: ” You’d better explain it to me.”
Ye Jiayao looked up at You and said in a low voice, ” Can I go to mother’s room and talk?”
You’s face was frozen and she got up and said, ” I suppose you may tell me something new.” Then she went out and, as soon as she lifted the curtain, she saw little Ya standing outside, which made her displeased again.Caught by her madam for overhearding, Little Ya was embarrassed and scared, and she making way for You swiftly.
Ye Jiayao followed You to the main courtyard and went to the house. Mother Sun sent the servants away. No one was allowed to approach them within ten steps of going to the house. Only then did she close the door.
” Now you can say,” You said coldly.
Ye Jiayao said, ” My dear mother, I was not willing to say something about the third young brother’wife, but I was really wary of the third young brother’wife. Whether mother consider me a mean person or a petty person, I always believes that it is necessary to not harm others but prevent ourselves.The third young brother’wife are pregnant, if bad situations arises and I’m right beside them, it is really a hundred words of silence.”
” I thought it is not too far away between she and I, I’ll try to fix our relatioship after the third young brother’wife have given birth. However, when I went to Puji temple last time, Master Jiren calculated that there would be an accident in me, so that I should guard against base persons and stay away from them.”
You’s expression slightly changed with a bright eye. Master Jiren was the first monk in Huai Song, and he was enigmatic. It was believed that Master Jiren will not say such a scary word without causes.
” I have never thought who this cunning guy was. Do you still remember that night when I came back from Puji temple, mother was angry that I did not visit the third young brother’s wife, and then I went there. But I smelled a strong Long Xian fragrance in her room, mixed with the smell of Ay Tsao.I always had a sensitive smell, but I did not understand why the pregnant woman smoked Ay Tsao. Later on, when I went to see the first brother’s wife, we talked about Ay Tsao undersignedly, and I saw her face changed, so I asked her, but she did not say, I was suspicious and didn’t know why until asked a doctor.”
You’s expressionlessly said: ” Now that you knew it, why do you spread rumors privately rather than tell me?”
Ye Jiayao gave a wry smile and said: “mom you wronged me, but I did not tell anyone about it except the first brother’s wife ,I did not even dare to tell Yuchun. As for why, I had my own considerations. the imperial doctor lee was a famous doctor in the palace, especially in the field of woman’s studies, no one’s medical skill parallel to his. I thought that with the help of the imperial doctor lee, maybe he had the ability to solve the matter. If I spread it,the third sister-in-law would not be happy about it and it would make her angry.”
” Now that I knew that the unborn baby of the third young brother’s wife was unhealthy , I was even more afraid to go to the third young brother’s wife’s yard, moreover, Ruan needed I, and she had no other friends in Jinling City. She regards me as her confidant, so I had the responsibility to accompany her. Of course, I also had some selfishness and took the opportunity to avoid trouble.”
” What you said was frank.” You glared at her, but the expression of her eyes was not as sharp as before.
” I has always been a frank person, and I also can tell what I shouldn’t say and what I shouldn’t say.”
” Mother also knew that the day before yesterday, the third young brother’s wife said they wanted to eat ice cream. What she did not know was that the day before yesterday, the third young brother’s wife also invited me to chat with her. Mother, you also heard the doctor’s diagnosis today. Fetus had died for many days, if I went there now, maybe you and I would have knelt outside Ninghe Palace to plea for forgiveness.”
You’s gave a gasp of surprise, and Sun’s mother also turned pale.
” At that time, the queen mother would punish me for doing harm to sister-in-law with a grudge, and punish mother for being not strict with family’s rules and your inadequate care. And as for the third young brother’s wife’s abortion, it would not be her problem, but the responsibility of me and even the whole marquis family.”
You’s face darkened and her second daughter-in-law’s remarks were really like lightning flashes. In fact, she knew that it were not good when she heard Liuli smoked Ay Tsao and handled them in time by means of thunder, which was also what she was worried about.
If the fetus was still had the chance to be saved, it’s acceptable that Liuli concealed the truth and didn’t want anyone to worry about it, but the the fetus had died for many days, and with the high medical skill of the imperial doctor lee, he can’t be unknown. They still deliberately concealed the truth. Who can guarantee that Liuli did not scheme it.
You’s quietly looked at Ye Jiayao and said slowly, ” Perhaps you knew from the moment when you smelled Ay Tsao that there was something wrong with Liuli’s unborn baby ?You just didn’t want to spread the news by yourself, but take advantage of Mingxiu to do so.”
Ye Jiayao hurriedly knelt down. You’s was too smart to hide anything from her. She had to admit: ” Mother is wise, I am afraid that if the third young brother’s wife would not be able to move in on me, with such a mind, she must have to look for another scapegoat, and the first brother’s wife has no knowledge of it, in case she took the bait …”
” Hum, your sister-in-law was pregnant and does not leave home. What can she do?”
Ye Jiayao said slowly, ” Mother, you forgot that concubine Shu’s first child died just because the baby offended the queen’s son …”
this secret was asked by Ye Jiaya who entangled Chunyu to ask about it.
You was frightened and shouted, ” Shut up.”
Mother Sun seemed to think of something: ” Madam, you remember the day before you went to visit the third young brother’s wife. And she joked that it was time to invite Qin Tianjian’s people to see if there were any problems with the furnishings in this room and the bed arrangement, since she felt something was pressing during the night sleep.”
The color in You’s face was suddenly gone, and he was suddenly frightened. Although it was almost May, she still felt cold in her back. If she did so, she could make up what she wanted to say.But then You’s was kept in the dark, and naturally everything was made of Liuli, and she could not imagine what kind of bad things she would do, so it would become a sharp sword under the control of Liuli.
I have to say that this trick was really cruel and chilling.
For a long time, You seemed to be very tired and her whole strength was drained away. She lifted her hand weakly: ” Get up!”
!”
