Chapter 117

After all, Mr. Xue had experienced great storms and soon recovered from calmness and stepped forward to ask questions.

"Zi Chang (Shen Yuanqi's name), why did you bring Miss Yu San back?"

Shen Yuanqi stepped forward and replied, "Encyclopedia, Xiang'er is my sister, so he should naturally come back with me."

There was a rumbling sound, but someone dropped his bowl and knocked his chopsticks.

"What does this mean by your sister?"

"Xiang'er is my legitimate sister who has been separated for many years. This matter is a long story." Shen Yuanqi pushed her sister into the hall, sat down and briefly described the old things, which shocked the Xue family. After explaining the causes and consequences, Shen Yuanqi said again, "I am planning to let her recognize her ancestors and return to her hometown this time. I don't know what her adoptive father thinks?"

Mr. Xue just recognized Shen Yuanqi as his adopted son and did not want him to change his surname. It was naturally difficult to interfere in his housework at this time, so he just nodded and agreed.

While the two were talking, Yu Xiang was also looking at the people in the hall without a trace. Although Mrs. Xue was very well concealed, disgust and hidden worries flashed in her eyes, and she was afraid that she was wary of Shen Yuanqi. This is no wonder that Young Master Xue is not good at it. Now the Xue family is completely supported by Shen Yuanqi. After a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be greedy for the Xue family's huge family business.

Young Master Xue is open-minded and has a smile in his eyes. He really treats Shen Yuanqi as a brother of a different surname. The other concubines were taught by Mrs. Xue and they usually eat in their own courtyards, but they never show up at this time.

Mrs. Xue gave birth to two legitimate daughters, one of whom was twelve years old and the other was the same age as Yu Xiang. Both of them lowered their heads and couldn't see clearly, but their hands tightly held together could see that they were uneasy about the addition of a stranger in their home.

I am afraid that the Xue family will not be able to stay for a long time. As time goes by, it is difficult to protect the filth from a long time. Yu Xiang thought to himself.

Shen Yuanqi and Mr. Xue agreed to recognize his ancestors and return to his hometown. Then Mrs. Xue spoke and let the brother and sister sit down for dinner. No one in the hall talked, only the sound of chopsticks hitting the dishes. Yu Xiang tasted the same wax, and missed the scene when his brother was there. She also ate around the table. She could poke his brother's thighs with her fingertips to tease him to change his face; she could pout slightly and ask him for a kiss; even if she accidentally ate the spicyest chili pepper because of absent-mindedness, she could taste the sweetness at the tip of her tongue.

My brother left, but it seemed to take away all the happiness in her life. Yu Xiang couldn't help but turn red as she ate.

Shen Yuanqi sighed in his heart, put down the bowls and chopsticks and said, "We're ready. Xiang'er has just arrived. I'll take her to the mansion for a walk. Adopted father and mother, please use it slowly."

"Let Jiayi and Jiayin take Miss Shen to their daughter's house. It's easy to talk to. Stay behind and recognize the ancestors and return to the family is a big deal. I have to discuss it with you. After all, Lingnan has high mountains and long roads, and you are in a position and can't leave. We need to find a safe person to do it." Mr. Xue smiled.

Shen Yuanqi looked at her sister and saw that she waved her hand indifferently, so she had to stay.

The Xue family is also a prominent family in Lingnan. Although they are now in the West Mountains, their foundation is there. As the eldest daughter of the Xue family, Xue Jiayi is quite noble. On the other hand, the second daughter Xue Jiayin is not as good as that. When he saw Yu Xiang holding a horse whip and playing with it, his face turned pale, he found an excuse to escape.

Xue Jiayi didn't try to keep him, and led Yu Xiang to wander around the back garden. When he encountered a slightly flat road, he took the initiative to come up and push his wheelchair.

"Miss Yu Xiang is such a famous figure, but she didn't expect that one day she would fall to this point. Things in the world are really impermanent." She suddenly leaned over and whispered in Yu Xiang's ear, and finally, Yu Xiang, who was looking back, smiled brightly.

"I have offended you?" Yu Xiang asked with a frown.

"No." Xue Jiayi shook her head. She just couldn't stand Yu Xiang, and there was no question of offending her. She had seen Yu Xiang from afar. She was clearly a broken leg at the spring banquet held by the Crown Princess, but she smiled so flamboyantly that she was more arrogant than anyone else. I don't know who mentioned her name, and her voice was a little louder. She glanced at her cold eyes, and everyone stopped breathing, and the quiet needles could be heard.

Several days after she came back, she was still feeling palpitations about the scene at that time. After the palpitations, she felt contemptuous and thought to herself that there was nothing to be afraid of, but she just bullied others with power. Without power and status, she was just a useless person.

The imagination at that time has now become a reality. Although he has no grudge against Yu Xiang, Xue Jiayi feels a sense of pleasure. When this matter spreads throughout the capital, there will probably be more people who feel happy about it.

How could Yu Xiang not understand these people’s mentality of taking advantage of the situation and sneered, “Then, today I will have to offend Miss Xue.”

Xue Jiayi's heart trembled, and she continued, "It is a great thing for me to be able to recognize my ancestors and return to my hometown, but when Miss Xue's mouth was used, the word "fall" was used. It can be seen how humble my elder brother existed in Miss Xue's heart, and how miserable it was to return to him. Although my elder brother is now a fourth-rank official in the court, in Miss Xue's heart, I am afraid that he will still treat him as a slave to the Xue family..."

"No, I didn't have that intention." Xue Jiayi quickly defended.

"Then why did you mock me for falling to this level? What is this level? Can Miss Xue solve my doubts?" Yu Xiang blinked, his expression very ignorant.

Xue Jiayi's cheeks flushed and she was stammering.

Yu Xiang laughed coldly, "I won't feel inferior just because I'm back to my elder brother, and I won't feel ashamed of my elder brother's experience as a slave. Miss Xue, it's best to be polite when talking to me in the future. Although I am not the third lady of the Yu family, I am still the Sinongxiangjun, the emperor's enthronement. If you really want to get to the level, your father and mother will also have to salute me when they see me."

Xue Jiayi's red cheeks turned pale in an instant. She was just in a hurry to move forward and retreat, and then she heard Shen Yuanqi's warm voice coming from not far away, "Xiang'er, it's time to go back."

Xue Jiayi didn't know how long he had stood and how many times he heard, and suddenly felt even more ashamed and angry. He lifted up the hem of the skirt and ran away in a hurry. Taohong and Liu Lu focused on appreciating the flowers, and never stood up for their master, because they knew that in front of their master, the ladies in Manjing were all paper tigers.

Shen Yuanqi pushed his sister back to the room, sat down and poured her a cup of hot tea, and there was no joy or anger on her face.

Yu Xiang took a sip and said frankly, "Brother, although Mr. Xue treats you well, Mrs. Xue is guarding you from the bottom of her heart. After a long time, she will not be able to say anything in the ears of Mr. Xue and Mr. Xue. If you are not greedy for the business of the Xue family, we'd better move out as soon as possible so that the benefactor will become an enemy."

Shen Yuanqi raised his eyebrows and asked, "What if I am greedy for the Xue family business?"

"Then I can only say that your mind is in water, and then I advise you to think twice before doing it. Why bother to lose a good reputation for such a little thing? Don't pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons." Yu Xiang was as patient as he advised the fallen child.

Indeed, the emperor valued himself because he had no foundation, and the other was because he was grateful and favored, and he valued friendship and righteousness. If he occupied the Xue family business, his future career would probably be cut off. Shen Yuanqi asked casually, but when he saw his sister being so serious, he couldn't help laughing.

He once again realized the huge difference between Yu Miaoqi and her sister. Yu Miaoqi has been strong since childhood and must take possession of the tentacles for himself, otherwise he will never give up. If he asked Yu Miaoqi just now, the other party would probably have a bright future and then actively give him advice.

This temperament was also spoiled by her deceased parents. In the past, she always told her that she was a noble person and would one day get the best in the world, but she turned out to be distorted by her nature and eventually portrayed her to this greedy and selfish look now.

It was the Shen family general Yu Miaoqi who praised him. To draw this conclusion, Shen Yuanqi was in a very delicate mood, and he couldn't tell whether he had more hatred or more guilt.

The brother and sister discussed for a long time, and they felt that living in the Xue family was not a long-term solution. The next day, they greeted Mr. Xue and sent someone to clean up the vacant mansion.

Mr. Xue tried every means to keep him, but Shen Yuanqi was determined to be in a decisive way. He had family members around him, so he had to let him go. However, Yu Xiang did his best to recognize his ancestors and return to his hometown.

Yu Xiang is not from the blood of the Yu family, but the story of Chen Zhuangyuan's legitimate sister spread in just a few days. Yu Xiang had offended many people in the past, but not many people came to find a gap. The reason was only four points: First, her legitimate brother was also a celebrity around the emperor and could not be offended easily; Second, the emperor not only did not take back her title from Sinong Township, but also asked the queen to give gifts to comfort her; Third, the ninth princess came to visit her every day and refused to leave until dusk, which showed that she had a deep relationship with her; Fourth, the crown princess sent several trucks of gifts to show her importance to her.

Although Yu Xiang left the Marquis' Mansion, his situation was really not as bad as the one who was in a state of decline. He was the only one who missed Yu Pinyan in the late night.

Yu Siyu visited her several times and said that the old lady was too ill to go to the ground. Yu Xiang immediately prepared gifts to visit her, but was stopped outside the gate and refused to let her go, so she had to leave in a mess. She could already walk like a normal person, but she was still in a wheelchair when she entered and left. I don’t know if it was lazy or why.

After three months like this, Yu Xiang fell into a strange dream as soon as she lay down: she stood by a turbid river with waves, and there were sounds of swords and soldiers hit each other and tragic killing sounds. Looking up, it was a gray sky, and wet water vapor penetrated into her nostrils, and a heavy rain suddenly came.

She walked forward with heavy raindrops, and after a few steps, she saw several horses galloping towards her, followed by many pursuers wielding scimitars. She wiped off the raindrops on her face, stood on tiptoe to look at the face of the man who was on the head, but saw that the man was caught in an arrow behind him, fell from his horse, and fell into the long river of turbid water.

The soldiers following him shouted "Master" shrillly and jumped down one after another, struting towards the floating figure. The cavalry on the shore put away their scimitars and pulled the bowstrings, and the arrows were closer than the raindrops in the sky, making people have nowhere to escape.

Yu Xiangqiang endured the shock in his heart and rushed to the river to see the familiar figure. Seeing that he slowly sank, he woke up from the boundless fear and helplessness.

When he reached out and touched his hand, his forehead was already covered with cold sweat, and his vest and chest were even more painful. Yu Xiang was panting, shouting Taohong and Liulu one after another.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Liu Lu asked in surprise, staring at her unlucky face.

"Pack up my things, I'm going to Western Xinjiang." Yu Xiang turned over and got out of bed neatly.
