The girls looked at each other when they saw the jade pendant in the dry grass, but at this moment, Yu Qingya was still covering her mouth and exclaimed: "Isn't this the jade pendant of the sixth younger sister? Why did it appear here?"
Yu Qingya's voice was not low when she spoke. After she realized it, she deliberately lowered it, but the meaning was still clear and loud: "The jade pendant fell here, and the sixth sister should be nearby. Where is the sixth sister?"
Yu Qingya looked around while talking, hesitant to speak. Another female guest spoke quickly and said, "King Yingchuan is resting here, what is Liu Niang doing here if she has nothing to do. Did you read it wrong?"
"How is that possible." Yu Qingya denied it firmly. After she finished speaking, she realized that her voice was too firm. She covered her mouth with a veil and said, "Although my sixth sister and I are not siblings, we are better than our compatriots." How could I be wrong about her things? This is definitely the jade pendant of the sixth younger sister. Since her jade pendant is lost here, she must have been here not long ago, but where is she now?"
Yu Qingya beat around the bush, added fuel and vinegar, and almost wanted to tell these people clearly that the ambiguous voices inside were related to Yu Qingjia. At this moment, the folk customs are open, and women from aristocratic families are not bound by fame. There are many people who have a good relationship with another man before marriage, and then marry each other. Very disrespectful.
Yu Qingya bit her lip, looking worried and unbelievable, the other women looked at each other, unable to speak. They made a detour from the garden and did not disturb the others when they walked up the verandah. They did not restrain themselves when they spoke just now, and their voices seemed to be heard by the servants around King Yingchuan. The servant yelled here, and Yu Qingya covered her lips to the others, motioning to leave quietly.
Yu Qingya had been optimistic about the road for a long time, and now she brought a few people out safely. After leaving the guest room, Yu Qingya showed worry on her face, and said to the other female guests: "The ladies who were kind enough to help me, but ended up in this kind of situation, Si Niang is really sorry for you all. But what happened just now After all, it is disgraceful, the King of Yingchuan is a prince after all... Alas, that’s all, I dare not talk about the rights and wrongs of the royal family.”
Yu Qingya wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said in a sad tone, as if she had really seen these things: "It is really unfortunate for my family to let you ladies see such things. Si Niang has an unfeeling request, today For the matter, can the ladies..."
Yu Qingya said half and half, hesitating and procrastinating. Having said that, several other people have already understood what Yu Qingya meant. However, those who were called out by Yu Qingya were originally good people, and now they promised Yu Qingya not to spread the word, but in fact, how could they bear it.
Yu Qingya seemed to be relieved, and her face suddenly became serious: "This kind of thing is really humiliating to the face of the family. I don't dare to be self-reliant, so I can only report to the elders. I'm sorry ladies, I can't continue To accompany you, I can only let my servant girl take you back to the banquet hall, Hong Luan."
Hongluan took a step forward and said in response: "Your maidservant is here."
"It's good to serve a few ladies, do you know?"
"yes."
Another older female guest said: "The garden is so big, how can you not have a maid by your side? You should keep this maid and we can go back by ourselves."
"How can this be possible?" Yu Qingya declined for a long time, and finally a girl said: "It's too dangerous for you to walk alone, we have to go back anyway, why don't we drop by and visit Old Master Yu."
Yu Qingya's goal was achieved, so she pretended to respond. She took these few good-hearted and dishonest female guests to Mr. Yu's house. Mr. Yu is getting old, and he came back after sitting in the banquet hall for a while, and now he is talking with several other close relatives in his room. Mr. Yu was talking to someone, when he suddenly heard urgent footsteps from outside, then the door curtain was lifted, and a gust of cold wind came in from outside. Old Master Yu looked up in astonishment, and when he saw Yu Qingya's face clearly, he became more surprised and suspicious: "Si Niang, what's wrong with you?"
Yu Qingya wanted to cry, and walked into the room and knelt down directly to Old Master Yu. Old Master Yu was startled, and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Yu Qingya just cried, unwilling to speak or get up. The other wives who were guests also persuaded after seeing this scene, and finally the girls who came with Yu Qingya said: "We were walking in the garden just now and saw something that shouldn't be seen. In fact, it can't be blamed on Si Niang, It was because she was too worried about her sister that she took all the responsibility on herself."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Yu's expression darkened, and she asked solemnly, "Siniang, get up, what's going on, please tell me well."
Seeing this, Shi Li hurried over to help Yu Qingya, Yu Qingya took Li Shi's hand and stood up slowly, and said in a low voice, "It's my fault, I didn't take good care of Sixth Sister."
Yu Qingya told what happened just now, especially implying that she hadn't seen Yu Qingjia for a long time, and she went to look for Yu Qingjia out of concern, but found Yu Qingjia's jade pendant in the grass in the guest room. Yu Qingya said hesitantly: "I can't wait to inquire about the matter of King Yingchuan, but the sixth sister has not come out for a long time, and the fourth mother is really worried. It's all my fault. If I had kept an eye on the sixth younger sister, this would never have happened. kind of thing."
The other wives were a little strange when they heard this, but they just found a jade pendant, so it doesn't necessarily mean that Liu Niang of the Yu family is inside? Hearing what the fourth wife of the Yu family meant, it seemed as if she had already seen it. But the wives thought about it again, and thought that Yu Qingya might have seen something else, and it was inconvenient to tell outsiders, so they omitted it. When it comes to the reputation of their own girls, the Yu family will never discredit themselves.
Old Master Yu's face was ashen, and he tried his best to be afraid, and said angrily: "The family is unfortunate! It's all because Da Lang indulged her, and let her do such a thing without knowing the heights of heaven and earth!" After saying that, Old Master Yu's blood surged , Barely breathed, the house was full of guests and maids immediately rushed forward to support Yu Laojun. Mr. Yu clutched his heart to relax, waved his hands to everyone and said, "I'm fine, I just got annoyed by this evil obstacle."
The ladies who came to visit laughed, not easy to answer. In fact, family ugliness should not be publicized. When talking about this kind of internal affairs, the wives of these aristocratic families should politely avoid it. However, they were all ready, but Mr. Yu and the others didn't ask them to go out with polite words. They had no choice but to follow through with the scandal in the house.
Yu Qingjia became very famous because of Chang Hongqu's affair, and even the ladies of the aristocratic clan who had long been out of social contact with the younger generation heard about the six daughters of the Yu family. Who would have thought that what happened today was Yu Qingjia's again. Although the wives laughed, they had crossed this woman's name off the list of wives in their hearts.
After all, a woman is different from a man. After doing this kind of thing, even if this woman has the appearance of Chang'e and the talent of Ban Zhao, any aristocratic family who pays attention to the lintel will not let her enter their house.
Old Master Yu was furious, but King Yingchuan was also involved, and it was difficult for his female relatives to show up, so Old Master Yu immediately asked Yu Wenjun to come over with a livid face. After arranging all this, Mr. Yu panted heavily, and said to the rest of the people: "This is a family matter of the Yu family, let everyone see it as a joke."
The wives hurriedly said they didn't dare, but Mr. Yu's face was flat, and he said: "It's unfortunate that my family has polluted your eyes and ears with this kind of thing. In the future, I will personally send someone to the door to make amends. Now, please give the old man a face. For the time being Go and sit outside."
The wives and the ladies who came with Yu Qingya got up, said goodbye in a gentle and polite manner, and walked out the door slowly. What the aristocratic family pays attention to is slowness and elegance. The female family members stretched their long sleeves and walked slowly on the corridor. After walking out of Mr. Yu's courtyard, a lady couldn't hold back her curiosity, and said to her companion: "I was just out to get some air, but who knew, I saw such a lively scene. Yu Meiren first became famous for a piano piece, Today, I was bumped into this kind of thing again, I don't know how the Yu family plans to deal with her?"
"How do I know that?" The companion glanced at her and said, "It has nothing to do with us, just watch the fun."
The girl smiled when she heard the words, although she didn't talk about it anymore, her expression was not without contempt. They quickly walked back to the place where the guests were entertained. As soon as they entered the door, they heard applause and laughter from inside: "It's really wonderful, it's been around for three days, and the reputation is well-deserved!"
The girls who came back just now were stunned when they saw the scene in front of them. The woman who spoke just now looked like she had seen a ghost. She pointed her finger at the person and couldn't help shivering: "Yu Liuniang? Why are you here?"
Yu Qingjia lifted the curtain and came out from behind the piano stage. Hearing the girl's voice, she widened her eyes in surprise: "This is so strange, otherwise where would I be?"
These female guests looked at each other, although they opened their mouths wide but could not speak, their expressions were very ridiculous. Zhou Suzhi chased after him, and glanced at these people strangely when he heard this: "Just now Liu Niang has been playing the piano here, and she heard that many people were curious about the long song, so she played it herself. You just came back, why are you saying this?" Kind of words?"
Yu Qingjia adjusted her sleeves in a slow manner, and slowly smiled at these women: "I don't dare to go back to the praise, I have little knowledge, and everyone praises me too much. The ladies just saw me and were very surprised. , Do you think I should be somewhere else?"
The smile on Yu Qingjia's face remained the same, and there was some coolness in his eyes: "Where do you think I should be?"
Several women faltered and hesitated, unable to speak. Yu Qingjia smiled good-naturedly, and said, "Just say what you want, and I won't be angry. I'm actually curious, what did you misunderstand just now, otherwise why would you be so surprised when you see me?"
Yu Qingjia looked over one by one, and all the people she saw bowed their heads, speechless in embarrassment. Yu Qingjia smiled and said, "Say it. I saw that you were still very interested when you first came in, why don't you say anything now? In front of everyone, what can't be said freely."
The oldest woman among them finally realized that they were probably being plotted against. She hated that Yu Qingya and her younger sister were fighting among themselves, and they were involved in it, and they were unwittingly used as swordsmen. However, it is too late to understand now. When confronted by Yu Qingjia face to face, the woman blushed with embarrassment, and she had to bow her head to apologize to Yu Qingjia: "Liu Niang, please calm down, it's because we wanted to go wrong. We were offended so much just now, but we were also hurt by others." Deceived, your lord has a lot, don't have a quarrel with us because of this."
"I don't understand what I'm saying. The sisters are sensible and enthusiastic. How could I have a quarrel with you?" Yu Qingjia said slowly with a smile, "I don't understand what my sister is saying. You just said that you were arrested. People cheat, what's going on?"
Well, the women knew as soon as they heard that Yu Qingjia was not a good person. I'm afraid they don't want to stay out of it today. Yu Qingjia first put a high hat on several people, saying that they were sensible and enthusiastic. Since you are sensible, you shouldn't believe rumors when you haven't seen anything, and be enthusiastic... so you have to uphold justice and come out to say something fair.
Several female guests were driven to the shelf, and now they have to come out to express their views. They thought of this and scolded Yu Qingya fiercely, no wonder she made a fuss and invited people to the garden today, the original purpose was here. I wanted to plot against my famous cousins, but I used them as my swordsmen. If I hadn't bumped into Yu Qingjia in the banquet hall, I'm afraid they would still be in the dark. The girls who had been slipped around by Yu Qingya were angry and contemptuous, angry that Yu Qingya was secretly pregnant, and even dragged unrelated people into the water, and contempt... was contemptuous of Yu Qingya, who was poisonous and stupid. The last time he failed to grab credit at King Yingchuan's banquet, and now he is cheated again, he still lost nothing.
The girls all snorted disdainfully in their hearts, Yu Qingya is an idiot, her brain must be used to hold water.
Now that the matter has come to this point, these girls also went down the donkey along the slope, turning themselves into the party of justice. The oldest woman held Yu Qingjia's hand and said distressedly: "You are so pitiful. You lost your mother at a young age, and you have been squeezed out for many years. It's hard for you to have a better life, but you still have to be slandered with this kind of stigma. Don't worry, I am the person who can't see this kind of thing the most, as long as I meet, I will always speak for you. "
Yu Qingjia pursed her lips and smiled: "Thank you, sisters."
Yu Wenjun was hurriedly called from the banquet hall to the backyard. He thought something serious happened, but when he went to Mr. Yu's house, he saw Yu Qingya crying like a tearful person, and Mrs. Li was also crying silently. The mother and daughter sang together Speaking of Yu Qingjia's lack of etiquette, he might have an affair with King Yingchuan. Yu Wenjun listened to the twitching of his forehead, and when he heard Yu Qingya's eloquent account of how Yu Qingjia seduced King Yingchuan, as if she had seen it with her own eyes, Yu Wenjun couldn't bear it anymore, and with a vigorous flick of his sleeve, all the cups and cups on the table were all gone. was swept to the ground.
There was a loud shattering sound when the porcelain fell to the ground, and several pieces of it hit Li Shi's feet, and Li Shi backed away in fright. Being treated like this in full view of everyone, Mrs. Li was frightened and annoyed. She picked up the handkerchief and wiped her tears with a bitter face: "Da Lang, what do you mean? Liu Niang, she doesn't keep her boudoir honor. It's fine if you don't blame her for doing this kind of thing, but you still vent your anger on us? Even if you are eccentric, you have to be eccentric."
"Partial?" Yu Wenjun was furious, he slapped the table hard, pointed at Mrs. Li and yelled, "You poisonous woman! You keep saying that you are benevolent, righteous and respectful, and you believe in women's scriptures and women's precepts, and in the end you are insulting my daughter's reputation like this? "
Li Shi was stung by the words "my daughter", and Yu Qingya seemed to be slapped heavily. Yu Qingya was so angry that she ignored the broken porcelain pieces on the ground and immediately knelt down and cried to Old Master Yu: "Old Master, look at your father! He is partial to Sixth Sister and only thinks that Sixth Sister is his daughter. How can I be so disrespectful?" You see, then what am I still living in this world? I might as well die, so as not to cause trouble for my father and sixth sister, and hinder their father and daughter from enjoying family happiness."
Old Master Yu's face turned blue with anger, and he was afraid to hit the support tree next to him: "Negative, evil! You dare to do this in front of me, do you still see me as a grandmother in your eyes? What did Si Niang do wrong? Listen to your humiliating words?"
"What did she do wrong?" Yu Wenjun sneered angrily. He looked coldly at Mrs. Li who felt sorry for herself, as if the whole world was sorry for her, Yu Qingya, who was kneeling on the ground, and the majestic and respectful old Mr. Yu. , suddenly felt that all this was a joke. He has lived for most of his life, dedicated to his family and the country, but this is his blood relatives?
Yu Wenjun closed his eyes disheartened, and said: "Jiajia is not in the guest room at all, she has been in the banquet hall, and she just played a long song not long ago, I heard it clearly in the front hall. It's not just me , all the guests in the front and back halls can testify. You are actually slandering her... and smearing her reputation in front of my father, you are the ones who really deserve to be punished!"
