Chapter 358, Husband and wife game
In the confidant's room, Shi Fuxin had lunch with Jin Yue'e, and in the afternoon she read the recent accounts, and didn't return to the palace until evening.
As soon as she came back, Nanny Leng came up to greet her and told her: "The third master has been waiting for my wife all afternoon in the room."
Shi Fuxin said "Oh" in surprise: "Really, where is the third master now?"
Nurse Leng: "Madam hasn't come back for a long time, the third master went to the main courtyard, saying that he wants to have dinner with the princess."
Shi Fuxin heard it, and said directly: "Since the third master went to the main courtyard for dinner, then I will eat alone tonight."
Seeing that Shi Fuxin went straight into the inner room to change clothes, she had no intention of going to the main courtyard to have a meal with Chu Yao, so Nurse Leng followed quickly: "Madam, are you still angry with the third master?"
Shi Fuxin laughed out loud: "I'm not angry, how can I be angry so much?" Seeing that Nanny Leng wanted to say something, she waved her hand, "I know what Nanny is thinking, don't worry, I will so you don't torture yourself."
Don't say that Chu Yao's breaking the appointment this time was not intentional, even if he did it on purpose, she would not make her mood fluctuate because of others, and make herself feel guilty.
Chu Yao is not the only one in her life, without Chu Yao, she can still do many things, why should she hold on to one thing?
Man, within the controllable range, you still have to make yourself happy.
Nurse Leng saw that Shi Fuxin really didn't take what happened in the morning to heart, so she was still a little hesitant.
Shi Fuxin saw it, and was puzzled: "Is there something else for Mammy?"
Nurse Leng hesitated for a moment and said: "It is understandable for the third master to accompany the princess to have dinner, but there is a cousin girl beside the princess."
When Shi Fuxin heard it, she knew what Nanny Leng was worried about, and immediately said with a smile: "If Chu Yao likes Biao girl, I have nothing to do with it."
Nurse Leng shook her head: "Ma'am, the cousin is an orphan girl, she must not be the wife of the third master." After a pause, "According to the age of the cousin, she should have been married to someone else long ago, but there has been no movement , maybe, she has other thoughts about the third master?"
Shi Fuxin was silent for a while: "It's not a good thing to be a concubine? I see cousin Guan's temperament, and she is also proud."
Mother Leng: "That's the reason, but if you can't find a good husband's family, for the cousin girl, it's better to stay in the palace. At least she is raised by the princess. The princess also loves her very much. She and the third master There’s also the bond of growing up together.”
Shi Fuxin saw that Nanny Leng had said so much in one breath today, so she looked over immediately: "What did you hear, Nanny?"
Nurse Leng nodded solemnly: "The third master doesn't like to go back to the mansion, and he didn't even look at the concubines given by the old concubine and the prince. The situation of the eldest son and the second master is like that. If the third master wants to stay Does the son have to think of other ways?"
Shi Fuxin frowned.
Nurse Leng looked at Shi Fuxin's expression: "The old prince, old princess, and the prince and princess may be really anxious. Look at this old servant, the princess already has plans to match the third master and the cousin girl."
Otherwise, every time the third master is at home, he will not call people to the main courtyard, and every time the cousin will serve attentively by the side.
Shi Fuxin said mockingly: "Wangfei really doesn't understand her son, no, she shouldn't say she doesn't understand, she doesn't want to understand at all, she just thinks that she is the one who gave birth to Chu Yao, and Chu Yao should listen to it." her words."
"Let's just wait and see, mommy, the more active the people in the palace are, the more reluctant Chu Yao will be."
Nurse Leng was not as big-hearted as Shi Fuxin: "Madam, do we really not care about this matter?"
Shi Fuxin: "Whatever it is, the matter is undecided now, and the rights and interests of my third wife have not been affected. Now it is Chu Yao who is fighting the game with his family. I will only cause trouble if I intervene."
paused.
"After Chu Yao became the commander of the Supervision Department, the number of times he returned to the palace has obviously increased. What does this mean?"
"It means that no matter how much he dislikes people in the palace, deep down in his heart, he still wants to get the attention of everyone in the palace."
"Maybe for him, fighting against the people in the palace is a very fulfilling thing."
"If I really do something and ruin his sense of accomplishment, what will he think of me? Nine times out of ten, he will think that I am in the way."
"I'm just his wife. Before the people in the palace mess with me, I just need to take good care of Rong'an Yuan."
After hearing these words, Mother Leng stopped talking.
In a blink of an eye, it is New Year's Eve.
Celebrating the new year in the Wangfu, to be honest, it is not as lively as Shijia.
There are quite a few people, but they all have their own thoughts.
Shi Fuxin looked at the people from the palace gathered together, and could clearly feel the hypocrisy of everyone.
False happiness, false play.
They seem to be just completing a task, no one is really committed.
Regarding this, Shi Fuxin only felt that it would be better to go back to sleep.
From then on until the Lantern Festival, the palace lived like this. It looked joyous and lively, but very few people really enjoyed the New Year.
Shi Fuxin was actually very puzzled, and Chu Yao was fine with it. After all, he was neglected and mistreated since he was a child. It is normal for him to have no sense of belonging.
But Chu Xuan and Chu Zhao, one is favored by the old prince and concubine, and the other is protected by the king of Rongjun. They don't have much affection for the family of the palace.
Chu Xuan gave her a feeling of austerity, and Chu Zhao was a bit extreme, a bit like a bomb, and he liked to beat people when he was unhappy.
After three months of marrying into the palace, she heard no less than ten cases of Chu Zhao beating servants, even Tang Shan seemed to have been slapped by him.
All in all, none of the three brothers Chu Yao is normal.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, Chu Yao came over to have breakfast with Shi Fuxin: "Well, today I will accompany you to watch the lanterns."
After Shi Fuxin heard this, she didn't show a particularly happy expression, but looked at him: "Sanggong thinks I like watching lanterns?"
Chu Yao froze for a moment, then asked: "Don't you like it?"
Shi Fuxin: "Did you ask me if I like it?"
Chu Yao pursed his lips and said nothing.
Shi Fuxin smiled and asked again: "What if I have an appointment today?"
Chu Yao looked at her: "I didn't accompany you to Meilin Valley last time, are you still angry?"
Shi Fuxin shook her head: "What happened last time has passed, and today we only talk about what happened today."
Chu Yao: "What happened today?"
Shi Fuxin nodded: "I know you want to accompany me today, but I hope that if my husband wants to do something with me in the future, he can ask for my opinion first."
"In case I don't like watching lanterns, it's useless for you to accompany me."
"At the same time, I may also have something temporary, just like the last time Brother Eleven came to you suddenly."
"If I abandon my own affairs to accompany you, I will probably feel a sense of sacrifice. If I don't accompany you, you will probably be unhappy."
Chu Yao frowned: "So, what do you want to say?"
"I hope that when we are together, both of us are happy, and neither of us sacrificed ourselves for the sake of each other."
Chu Yao is also a person who doesn't like to be restrained. After hearing Shi Liu's words, she felt that she was hypocritical and troublesome, and she also liked to make a fuss, so she kept silent and didn't speak.
Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "Before you marry me, you should know that I am not the kind of woman who regards her husband as the sky. Even if I am your wife, I can not cooperate with you."
Chu Yao's complexion was a little bad: "You are retaliating for my missed appointment last time, aren't you?"
Shi Fuxin was speechless: "You didn't understand me, I just want you to respect me and get along well with you."
"I know that you will not accommodate me, and at the same time, I also know that I will not accommodate you."
"Could it be that we won't get along in the future?"
Chu Yao blurted out and wanted to say, 'Wives should accommodate their husbands', but when the words came to his lips, he remembered who Shi Liu was, and immediately swallowed the words back, changing to: "I am your husband."
Shi Fuxin: "I know, it's because you are my husband that I tell you this."
Chu Yao: "Why can't you put me first?"
Shi Fuxin: "Because no one can accommodate others forever, and you didn't accommodate me, did you?"
Chu Yao didn't want to just bow his head like this, so he said forcefully: "Do you want to see the lantern?"
Shi Fuxin replied directly: "Then do you want to promise me?"
Chu Yao looked at Shi Fuxin, stood up at once, then turned and left.
Nurse Leng and An Ran watched from the sidelines, both very anxious, as soon as Chu Yao left, she hurriedly said to Shi Fuxin: "Why does Madam push the third master away?"
Shi Fuxin's expression was light: "I don't have any, I'm just discussing how to get along with Chu Yao." As she spoke, she looked at the two with a smile, "Don't worry, even if Chu Yao isn't with me, I will take you to see the lanterns of."
Nurse Leng felt a little helpless: "Madam, men are always soft-hearted and hard-working."
Shi Fuxin disagrees: "This method is okay to occasionally adjust the relationship, but it won't work when used in daily relationship."
Said, eyes drooping, "I married a partner who is equal and mutual help, not an old ancestor. Chu Yao wants to be superior to me, that's not enough. The bottom line has to be revealed from the very beginning."
"Okay, let's get ready for the carriage to see the lanterns."
On the other side, Chu Yao was sitting sullenly in the study, thinking about what Shi Fuxin said just now, while rubbing his forehead with a headache.
At this moment, she is different from ordinary ladies, but she doesn't have to be independent in everything.
What do you mean by "anything" you have to discuss with her about "her and me"?
Chu Yao felt that he was bound!
Although some of Shi Liu's words made sense to him, he, who was used to seeing husbands giving orders to his wife, felt that Shi Liu's proposal was very awkward.
If he agreed, wouldn't he be bowing to her?
But Chu Yao knew clearly that Shi Fuxin didn't want to cooperate with him, so she really dared not take him seriously.
Chu Yao stayed in the study for a long time, and when he was still hesitating whether to accompany Shi Fuxin to see the lanterns, Suifeng came over and told him that his wife had left the house.
This made Chu Yao so angry that he quickly left the house.
However, instead of chasing Shi Fuxin, he went to Chu Qian.
"Hey, today is the Lantern Festival, why are you still so dark?"
Chu Qian smiled and looked at Chu Yao, who started to drink alcohol as soon as he arrived, and asked curiously: "Who messed with you? The old princess and the others are upset with you again?"
Chu Yao raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, and then shook his head after a moment of silence.
Chu Qian was surprised: "If it wasn't them, who else could it be? Now that you are the commander of the Supervision Department, who would dare to provoke you?"
Seeing Chu Yao pouring wine one after another, Chu Qian thought of something, excitedly said: "Could it be younger siblings?" As he spoke, he clapped his hands together, "It must be younger siblings."
Chu Qian quickly sat down beside Chu Yao, and nudged him with his elbow: "Tell Brother Eleven quickly, are you arguing?"
Chu Yao glanced at him: "No."
Chu Qian became even more excited: "If you didn't quarrel like this, how can it be okay if you quarrel?" He patted Chu Yao's shoulder, "Brother, you can't do this, you will be demoralized! "
Chu Yao frowned and said firmly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Chu Qian glanced at his mouth quietly, and began to teach Chu Yao his experience: "Brother Yao, Brother Eleven told you, you can't be used to women. Women are all Mu Qiang's, the more you behave The stronger you are, the more they will like you."
Chu Yao heard it, but he didn't believe it.
Shi Liu even asked him to discuss with her when making decisions, how could he still be strong in front of her?
Seeing that Chu Yao didn't believe it, Chu Qian was a little unhappy: "Your eleventh brother, I have experienced a lot of battles when it comes to women. If you don't believe me, you can try as I say."
Chu Yao: "How to try?"
Chu Qian smiled: "Where is the strength of a man reflected?"
Chu Yao thought of something, and the roots of his ears turned red.
Chu Qian saw him, and knew that Chu Yao had misunderstood him, so he patted him on the shoulder immediately: "What are you thinking, although that aspect is also very important, but a man's face is achieved by power."
"You have to show your strength in this aspect to your siblings!"
After hearing this, Chu Yao thought deeply.
Seeing that he was on the road, Chu Qian was more active in helping out with ideas: "If I were you, I would quietly find someone to embarrass the Shi family, and then ask my younger siblings to beg you to solve this matter, and then she would know how powerful you are." ?”
Chu Yao shook his head instinctively. He still knew a little about Shiliu, and knew that her family members would definitely not be able to move: "No, this is not allowed."
Chu Qian said again: "Siblings and sisters are also human beings, and as human beings, they have desires. There must always be things that she cares about but are not under her control. If you think about it, you will definitely find a way."
"Women all want to be cared for and taken care of. After seeing how powerful you are, how can she not obediently listen to you?"
Hearing these words, Chu Yao felt quite reasonable.
Shi Liu Wugong is quite strong, but living in the capital, relying on force alone is not enough. Besides, who doesn't have family and friends behind him, and he can't really do things without scruples.
Chu Yao stroked his chin, and really thought about Fuxin's method when taking off and surrendering.
Although he married Shiliu because he admired her boldness, it doesn't mean that he wants to be a man with a weak husband!
What does Shiliu care about?
Chu Yao's eyes suddenly brightened. Apart from her family, Confidante Xiao is the one who puts the most energy into Shiliu.
Now that Hongyanxiao has branches all over the provinces of Dachu, it is still very easy to find out some problems, and he can directly find out what happened to Shi Liuqiu without him having to do anything secretly.
