Wen Ruqin originally planned to invite Ye Ping to sit in his courtyard, but just now he saw that the second brother went to the west courtyard to look for his father, it would be bad if he met him. So I didn't ask her to stay, but I sincerely asked her to come back next time.
The two walked out, speechless for a while.
Ye Ping looked up at the sky, and all she could see were tall trees with luxuriant branches and leaves stretching out everywhere.
"My mother doesn't like to be pruned by people. She said that these trees were originally born freely in the dense forest, but they are restrained and wronged when they are moved to the inner courtyard. Wouldn't it be even more wronged if they were allowed to cut off the stems and branches according to people's preferences."
The mother Wen Ruqin was talking about was naturally the late Princess Anhe.
Ye Ping thought that the eldest princess was so compassionate, but she was born with a compassionate heart. It's a pity that such a woman who takes pity on the common people has a son who is cold-hearted and cold-hearted. Let alone trees, even human life is worthless in Wen Yu's eyes.
"Miss Wen Er, thank you so much today."
"I didn't help you either."
"Actually, you don't know it yourself. You have helped me a lot. You are so beautiful and kind-hearted. Even if you don't do anything, it makes people feel beautiful. When I see you, I feel like I have a lot of courage. Every plant and tree in the world has become more and more joyful.”
The heat that had just dissipated on Wen Ruqin's face rose again, "I'm not as good as you said."
"You have, but you don't know it."
The masters were talking in front, and Hongsang and Sanxi behind were also whispering.
"Just like you, if you were in our princess mansion, you wouldn't even be able to get along with a low-ranking girl." Hong Sang looked down on Sanxi quite a bit, Miss Ye was sick, and there was only such a stupid and speechless girl beside her. girl. If it was really in the mansion of the aristocratic family, I am afraid that people will be run out of life in a few days. It's also fortunate that the Ye family's small family can accommodate such a stupid girl.
Sanxi refused to accept, "I'm my girl's big girl."
"What a big girl, you are the only girl in your family."
"Hmph, are you jealous of me?"
"I'm a big girl in the princess mansion, I will be jealous of you, are you sick?"
"I'm sick, what's wrong with me? My girl likes me like this."
…
As soon as the group reached the garden, they met Wen Ruyu head-on.
Not seen for a few days, Wen Ruyu's demeanor remains the same as before.
The light pink dress is suitable for the occasion and elegant. Her style is extremely elegant, dignified and decent without losing the extravagance. After seeing Wen Ruqin and Ye Ping in those almond eyes with a hint of arrogance, the pupils shrank slightly.
"Pingniang, why are you here?"
Ye Pingxin said, I should ask you this.
"The second girl Wen fell into the water last time, and I'm here to make amends."
"If you really want to get married, Pingniang is sensible."
"Miss Wen, where did you hear that I'm getting married?" Ye Ping pretended to cry, "I won't marry Mrs. Zhao, it's all rumors outside."
Wen Ruyu scolded an idiot, this matter is beyond your control.
"Didn't you say you're discussing marriage with the Zhao family?"
"No such thing!" Ye Ping shouted out as if afraid. "Miss Wen, I'll call you cousin anyway. How could you be so vicious and curse me to marry an old man who is not liked by others. If you think this marriage is good, why don't you marry? "
Wen Ruyu's face darkened, this idiot dared to talk to her like that. I haven't seen you for a few days, but I have grown courageous. She looked back and forth between Ye Ping and Wen Ruqin, a little suspicious.
"Miss Ye, my eldest daughter has good intentions, why are you so ignorant of people's hearts? What is your status? If you don't have the honor of the Wang family, based on your reputation and background, you can't get a marriage like the Zhao family! "
"You...you mean that I have been honored by the Wang family... No wonder my parents didn't know about it at all. They only found out about it after hearing the rumors outside. It turned out that the Wang family was behind it. Could it be that the Wang family took some benefits from Mr. Zhao and didn't want to Being a prostitute for fame, this is how I hit my head!"
Wen Ruyu was startled, and gave the girl a hard look. The girl was frightened out of her wits, she wanted to stand up for her master, but Ye Ping grabbed her.
Pingniang has always been clueless, so she dared to talk to herself like this because she listened to someone's instigation. She looked at Wen Ruqin, this cousin was so weak that she couldn't protect herself, did she really think that she could resist by attracting a fool?
It's so ridiculous!
"Pingniang, things are not what you think. Come here and I'll talk to you carefully." Wen Ruyu smiled gently, pulling Ye Ping aside.
Ye Ping didn't worry about it, and deliberately pretended to be reluctant.
There is an octagonal pavilion in the middle of the garden. The pavilion is built along the water, and it is the best place to enjoy the scenery.
Wen Ruyu brought the man into the pavilion, the expression on her face was the same as Ye Ping's memory from the original owner, kind, gentle and generous.
"Pingniang, don't rush to get angry, just listen to me."
"you say."
"I know you don't want it in your heart. Master Zhao is indeed a bit older and his reputation is not very good. But think about it carefully, what is your reputation like? You forgot about your trouble at the Huahui last time." ?You not only ruined your own reputation, but also offended the county king. Which son would dare to marry you? You have no choice but to marry and go to Beijing.
But my uncle has a low official position and has no family to rely on. My aunt's family background is also not good, and I don't usually make friends with any reputable wives. If you let your parents decide, what kind of good family can you find? Mr. Zhao is an official of the fourth rank, and you will be the wife of the fourth rank when you marry. His children and grandchildren are full, that is your blessing. Look at the old lady in the noble family, how comfortable is her life? At that time, your seniority will be high, and you will enjoy endless glory and wealth. Take ten thousand steps back and say, Mr. Zhao is old, and I am afraid that he will not be able to accompany you forever. If you are a widowed wife of a fourth-rank official, if you want to remarry, can you still marry into a noble family? "
Ye Ping felt chills in her heart, this marriage was not yet consummated, so she made a big cake for her second marriage. As long as she doesn't die, she will be used to the best of her ability by the Wang family and shed the last drop of blood for the Wang family.
Beautiful face, femme heart.
Everyone in the world knows how dignified, elegant and luxurious this eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion is, and she can be called the number one model of noble daughters in Beijing. Who would have known that such a well-mannered woman could be so vicious.
"I want to marry you, marry me, I think you are the best match for Mr. Zhao!" Ye Ping roared in a loud voice. "I will never listen to you again, never harm the person I like again, don't even try to use me again!"
Wen Ruqin's master and servant and Sanxi who didn't come over there were taken aback. Just now Wen Ruqin was worried that Ye Ping would be coaxed by Wen Ruyu again and become the same as before.
Because of her embarrassing background, no one has made a close friend since she was a child. Those people publicly called her Second Young Lady, but in private they stepped on her to curry favor with Wen Ruyu.
She kept worrying about it, feeling uneasy, afraid of losing the only friend she had finally made.
Hearing Ye Ping's words suddenly, her heart felt hot, and she felt a little bit secretly happy. It seems that Miss Ye really likes her, and she does not hesitate to offend the big lady for her.
Wen Ruyu clenched the hands in her sleeves tightly, almost slapping her.
"Pingniang, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Wen Ruyu, I have seen your true colors! So you are a poisonous girl with a kind face and an evil heart! Or did you tell me that Master Zhao likes to torture people in the boudoir, can I live if I really marry? How am I sorry? You, I will do whatever you ask me to do, why are you doing this to me!" Ye Ping's voice was louder, as if you were yelling.
Wen Ruyu took a step back in fright, and quickly calmed down again. It seems that this idiot is not so easy to coax, and he has become smarter.
"Pingniang, think about it carefully, I'm doing it for your own good."
"For my own good?" Ye Ping sneered, "Is it for my own good to use me as a gunman? Is it also for my good to let people spread my evil intentions everywhere? Forcing me to marry someone who killed several successors Old man, is it for my own good? Are you not afraid of thunder when you are so good for me? "
Wen Ruyu's face darkened, it seemed that this idiot was not easy to coax.
That being the case, she saved a lot of talking.
Just as she was about to use her identity to threaten Ye Ping, she saw Ye Ping burst into tears, and before she could react, she was pushed into the water.
"ah!"
