Xia Ruoxue collapsed dejectedly on the imperial concubine's couch next to her: "Ye Lingwei's father has just recovered, and his brother has become the deputy general of the Yulin Army again. I heard that the emperor intends to reuse him."

Bai Lan whispered: "Madam, the old lady loves you very much. Even if that woman comes in, she will definitely not be able to get over you."

"It hurts?" Xia Ruoxue sneered, "Can she hurt her son more than she did?"

For more than ten years, she flattered and served diligently. Sometimes she even rushed to do the work of the maid, such as washing up after getting up early in the morning, feeding water and medicine when she was sick, and even once the old lady was seriously constipated, which she personally latched out with her fingers as the imperial physician's instructions. As a result, she washed her hands repeatedly on her back and cried while washing...

Even so, the old lady still gave her husband one after another. Sima Yunting, the second master of the Duke's Mansion, pointed to the house and carried the concubine.

Haha, only then will the old lady praise her virtuousness and generosity without hesitation, and be as intimate as her biological mother and daughter. She knew that the old lady deliberately said to several other sisters-in-law, especially the prince's wife.

The prince's wife was the prince himself who took a fancy to him. He asked for marriage many times before he could get what he wanted. He also made the oath of "only he can take a concubine without a child at thirty years." However, the prince's wife became pregnant three months after entering the house. She gave birth to two sons in three years and gave birth to a daughter a few years later.

The prince's wife was strong, had a generous dowry, had both children, and had a well-known vow to support her. No matter how much the old lady "feels" with the prince, she would have no choice but to put a few beautiful concubines into their yard. She could only annoy her prince's wife and was jealous and petty, and from time to time she would introduce Xia Ruoxue, the obedient and sensible "filial daughter-in-law" to assassinate the prince's wife.

Over the years, on the surface, her second wife, supported by the old lady in the mansion, lived a very prosperous life, and had the reputation of being the so-called "generous mistress". In fact, only she knew how much sadness she felt. For example, the last time she failed to fulfill the old lady's nephew, and she was really cold for a while by the old lady for a long time, while Sima Yunting added another concubine.

Fortunately, she has a son and a daughter, and she is also very good at Sima Yunting. Although there are many maids in the backyard, her status in the second room is still solid.

But this time it is different. This time, Sima Yunting is not going to take on a maid or a poor woman, but a serious third-rank official lady Ye Lingwei.

Ye Lingwei is 23 years old this year and is a real old girl. However, she has a good reputation as a "filial daughter". Ye Lingwei's father, Mr. Ye, was framed and brought to prison more than six years ago. Ye Lingwei, who was about to get married, was retired. The brother and sister not only took on the burden of supporting the family, but also tried their best to find clues to call for justice for his father. Half a year ago, with the help of a student of Lord Ye, he actually turned over the old case and took Lord Ye out of prison.

Three days ago, Ye Lingwei went to Famen Temple to burn incense for her father, but accidentally stepped on her feet. Sima Yunting and several friends passed by, rushed over and wanted to hold Miss Ye, but she hugged her and rolled down the hillside. The uphill was not high, and it was still a grass slope. Neither of them was injured. But after all, Miss Ye was an unmarried woman. She was held in her arms and rolled so far in front of everyone. Naturally, she could only marry Sima Yunting and had no choice.

Although Ye Lingwei was a little older, she was still a girl from the boudoir and a serious daughter of the official family. In order to compensate Ye Shilang, the emperor rewarded Ye Lingwei with a generous dowry in the name of "Great Filial Piety" and recruited Ye Lingwei's elder brother into the Yulin Army.

Of course, Sima Yunting would not refuse such marriages, not to mention that Sima Yunting has been thinking about Ye Lingwei's beautiful face and convex and soft body since he returned that day.

Xia Ruoxue was indignation when another close maid Bai Yu rushed in in panic: "Madam, it's not good, it's not good, it's not good, it's not good."

Qing's mother drank: "What kind of yelling is it? What's wrong with it? I stand up and reply."

Bai Yu stood still and gasped, saying, "The Duke and the Second Master are back... The Ye family does not accept the noble concubine... They must be fair wives... Otherwise, they would rather let Miss Ye tie their hair and be a sister. Second Master... Second Master agreed and said that they would marry Miss Ye in a grand manner."

"Pa" Xia Ruoxue slapped her a few times, and her lower lip was bitten and she burst into blood.

Qing's mother also felt wronged for her master, but they couldn't do anything. Ye Lingwei's affairs were an accident, and no one would condemn her. However, when Ye Lingwei entered the door, her wife's life would be difficult.

Compared with his wife, Ye Lingwei is young and beautiful, has a good reputation and a rich dowry (it is also rewarded by the emperor). Her father and brother are proud of her. The Duke's Mansion and the Second Master must have to favor her. Once Ye Lingwei gives birth to a son, she will be the legitimate son!

Xia Ruoxue hated her, if her parents' home is still the Yongping Hou Mansion, would the Sima family and the Ye family dare to bully her mother like this?

If, if her plan succeeded, she was now Shujie's "legitimate aunt" and Shujie could use that sign to beg the Empress Dowager. Even if Ye Lingwei had to come in, Ye Lingwei would have to be a noble concubine, right?

She hated her mother and brothers for being stupid. She couldn't do anything well. She planned everything, but somehow they showed off. She was even more cruel to Shujie's three "eyed wolves" who were not familiar with. In the past two or three years, she sent people to give them New Year gifts every year, trying hard to establish a good relationship with them, but the three little bitches were not familiar with them. The words Qing's mother told her back made her wish she could strangle the three brothers and sisters with her own hands. She really couldn't figure it out, but they were just three children, why was it so difficult to deal with?

However, since they knew about that, they would be more cautious about her, and it would be even more difficult to use tricks.

And this is in the capital, and Jin Xida lives with them, and Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion...

Xia Ruoxue closed her eyes and pressed her temples. She just wanted to borrow the power of her three nieces and nieces, but she didn't do anything that would harm the world. Why did God just refuse to help her? She donated a large sum of money for sesame and oil every year, such as releasing animals and serving porridge, and the gods and Buddhas should bless her!

Even if the gods and Buddhas do not bless her, Xia Ruoxue will definitely not be defeated, and no one can crush her. She will definitely be able to do what she wants to do.

There was a bulging sound outside the window, and it was the third day...

Opening his eyes again, Xia Ruoxue returned to his daily calmness and grace: "Baiyu asked someone to come in to clean up, Bailan prepared hot water to wait for me to wash, I'm going to go to bed. It's such an important thing, I'm going to work hard for a while."

Bai Yu and Bai Lan responded, with a sense of unhidden surprise in their eyes. Qing's mother was slightly stunned and woke up. Her wife has always been strong. Over the past decade, she has experienced so many things, and she has always been firmly in the position of the second wife. Qing's mother admired her wife from the bottom of her heart. She had to be strategic, had means, and was ruthless and decisive. If the wife was a man, she would be able to revive the Xia family. She would not have to live so depressedly.

If you are happy or unhappy, you may sleep well overnight or you can't sleep, the sun will always pop out of the horizon, and a new day will begin. As long as people are alive and life continues, some people continue to struggle, continue to hate, continue to calculate; some people continue to work hard, continue to love, continue to live happily with the ones they love...

The Shujie brothers always wake up naturally at a fixed time. Practicing qigong is their established way to usher in a new day. Shu Yao also took Xiaoguai and Huohuo to chase the big garden. The mother who was taking care of the garden and the maid passing by. The servant was stunned. They could only see three lights of light purple, white and red slashing over, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. It would be fine if those two were spiritual beasts, but the girl had become a god?

Mother Liu looked majestic: "Everyone does their own things. Why are you stunned here? The girl is practicing light skills, and you will get used to it after watching too much. However, this house cannot tolerate too much talkative people, and anyone who is gossiping about their young masters and girls, I will not ask or say more, and I will sell people to the most low-key places."

The few people quickly responded and lowered their heads and went to work hard. They were just surprised. It was not surprising that they knew that the girl was practicing martial arts at this moment, but they still felt that the young girl was so good at light skills, as if she could fly.

The people who bought them in advance in the mansion were also Jin Xida who asked people to carefully choose honest and honest. Most of them were rough use, and there was no requirement for ability. Loyalty and reliability were the first priority. Everyone else was waiting for Liu's mother to come before buying.

After Shujie and the other two practiced their skills, they went to the main courtyard to pay their respects to Jin Xida and had breakfast with the adoptive father who had just finished his busy life in the study.

When Shujie and the other two were in Yulin, they knew that although Jin Xida had no official position, they were very busy. They were not as lazy and comfortable as he showed, and they were traveling everywhere. Shujie once saw a man in black flying into the study they prepared for Jin Xida in the middle of the night. When they got up early to practice, they mostly found that Jin Xida's study was on with lights.

However, the three siblings are all smart and never ask a word. Shujie explained to Shuwen that since Uncle Jin is a person trusted by the emperor, there is no reason to be idle.

Shu Yao thought that Jin Xida would soon leave the capital and go out for a "travel" and her return date was not yet determined. The more she thought about it, the more she became, the more worried she was. She tried to convince him to take a marrow cleansing fruit. The stronger her martial arts and the stronger her internal strength, the safer she was, right? "Entertainment Father, Yao'er learned light skills and flying needles, and she did not know how to fight. In fact, the marrow cleansing fruit did not have much effect on me. Adoption Father, you should use one. Besides, Yao'er is at home and there is not much danger."

Shu Jie also nodded: "Yes, adoptive father, Yao'er is right, you should take it. We'll feel more at ease when you go out." Shu Yao doesn't need too strong internal strength, and the help of the treasure chest spiritual energy is enough for her to practice internal strength.

Jin Xida knew that the three children were truly filial and could not express comfort in her heart: "Even if Yao'er doesn't need it, keep it first. I have suffered internal injuries before, and the huge increase in internal strength is not necessarily good for me, so don't waste it. Don't worry, the adoptive father will be very careful, and I have secret guards around me, so you don't have to worry."

Shuwen's eyes were bright: "Enterprise Father, Wen'er will come with you, I will protect my adoptive father."

Jin Xida smiled and said, "If your adoptive father is not really going to play, how can you take you with you? You have to study hard and practice hard, so that you can be as good as your elder brother. Now Jie'er is going to take the scientific exam, and Yao'er is a girl again. During the time when his adoptive father left the capital, he will give you the task of taking care of Jie'er and Yao'er. You can't let your adoptive father down."

"Make sure to complete the task," Shuwen replied playfully, "But the adoptive father must come back soon."

Jin Xida touched Shuwen's head: "The adoptive father will miss you very much when he goes out, and will definitely come back safely soon. Have dinner quickly, we are going to Weiyuan Marquis Mansion today." (To be continued.
