Chapter 263 The scandal (1)
When the maids helped Guo Meng, who was unconscious, lie down in the inner room. Before the doctor rushed over, Yu Ya turned her eyes and said, "That person dared to hurt Miss Guo in the mansion. He must be from the mansion. There are so many people coming to the Jinju Banquet today, and it is inevitable that there are many people and eyes. Why not ask someone to ask whom is with Miss Guo?"
The county magistrate's wife felt that what she said was reasonable, so she went to find someone to pass the message, saying that if anyone saw it, who did Guo Meng have been with today?
The maid who was passing the message came back soon, saying that she had seen the little maid who said she was cleaning. Today, Guo Meng had walked with Zhao Feizhou.
As soon as these words were said, Yao's eyelids twitched. Today she brought Zhao Yulong and Zhao Feizhou. Zhao Yulong and Zhao Feizhou are now at the age of being a kiss. These two boys are like stones and have no idea of being close to any girl. Yao discussed with Zhou and then came with her son and nephew. Unexpectedly, such a thing happened.
Yao comes from a scholarly family and has been a man of rules and etiquette since he was a child. He was a little angry when he heard this: "I watched Feizhou grow up, and I will never do such a despicable thing!"
"You know people but not your heart." Yu Ya said: "Besides, you didn't say anything. You just saw that Mr. Zhao San and Miss Guo were together. What was the grandmother of the Zhao family worried about?"
"You--" Yao was furious. He saw Yu Ya's provocation. Looking at Shen Rou on the side, he remembered something. When Jiang Ruan's incident came to the Zhao family, it turned out that this woman was Xia Jun's mother. Isn't it just a revenge for soliciting so deliberately today?
Aunt Rumei shouted in fear of the chaos in the world: "It's you! I didn't expect that Master Zhao San is such a shameless person. I don't care. Master Zhao San has harmed my Meng'er. I will turn around and ask someone to tell my master that even if you make trouble in the government, you will never be able to get benefits!"
"Miss Rumei," Yao was really angry, and said word by word: "Dare you ask why my Feizhou wants to harm your daughter? There is always a reason for no reason."
"Maybe your son saw Meng'er's beauty and had such a lustful heart. Meng'er refused to obey, and she was beaten up by your son in anger!" Aunt Rumei said something shameless, but the ladies around him laughed. Aunt Rumei was really like a shrew, but she didn't know what impact this words would have on her daughter. I'm afraid that as soon as the matter today spreads, it would be difficult for Guo Meng to find a good family in the future. My mother is so shameless. How good can her daughter be?
Aunt Rumei said happily, but she didn't know that the Zhao family had always protected her shortcomings, and she was not a soft persimmon that could be controlled by others. Even the Yao family, who looked warm and soft, had married into the Zhao family for so many years, and had a little courage in the Zhao family. She immediately sneered: "Aunt Rumei is accustomed to joking. What kind of girl is Feizhou? She insisted on finding a concubine daughter. Or Aunt Rumei thought that Miss Guo could sing a few songs, so Feizhou liked her tightly. Little did she know how to stay compared to the little peach blossoms on the stage of the East Street of Beijing?"
Among the wives around him, there were also friends with Yao, so he understood that Yao would never say such mean words with his usual temper. Today, he was forced to do so and was really angry.
After Yao finished speaking, even the county magistrate's wife wanted to laugh. The little Taohong in the East Street stage sang a good song, which was welcomed and sent to the public every day, and I don't know how many officials were involved in this relationship. Yao's words were not poisonous.
In Yu Ya's heart, I didn't expect that Yao, who was bullied, would be so clever. Aunt Rumei, who was in the house, could have heard the sarcasm of Yao's words, and she hated her a little bit of pain. She was not as clever as Yao's, so she could not think of a reply.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stagnant, I heard footsteps coming from outside, but the noble girls playing in the yard came.
The one walking in front was Guo Xiang, the eldest lady of the Guo family. When he walked to the door, Rumei looked at her viciously and scolded: "Miss, why did you go out to enjoy Meng'er? It's just that something happened to Meng'er. How did you become your eldest sister? Do you don't know how to take care of your sister?"
Miss Guo is only fifteen or sixteen years old this year. Because her mother is still seriously ill, she only wore a dark green gown, which is extremely plain and her eyebrows are as light as her whole person. When she heard Aunt Rumei’s vicious accusation, she shook her head and said, “Auntie, I am not a worm in my charming belly. How can I follow her all the time? Besides, I asked my fifth sister to accompany me before, but it was my fifth sister who refused it myself.”
Ru Mei was stunned and saw another lady beside Guo Xiang: "Yes, Sister Guo wanted to go with Miss Guo Wu before, but Miss Guo Wu not only did not want to be with Sister Guo, but also insulted Sister Guo."
The noble ladies around them nodded and said that they had seen it with their own eyes. The noble ladies did not look down on concubines, and Guo Meng's temperament was indeed not very pleasing. He sympathized with Guo Xiang and stepped on Guo Meng without leaving any room for him. Just like the beautiful aunt vomited blood, there were so many noble ladies that they should not offend public anger, so they had to vent a rage on Guo Xiang and glared at her.
Guo Xiang was unmoved, but Yu Ya's eyes flashed and fell on Jiang Ruan who was following Zhao Jin behind. He seemed to notice Rumei's gaze. Jiang Ruan raised her eyes and smiled at her. A vague premonition arose in Yu Ya's heart, and she felt that something seemed to be missing.
"Auntie, the fifth sister was killed like this." Guo Xiang said.
"What?" Rumei immediately asked back: "Do you know who it is?"
"This..." Guo Xiang was a little embarrassed, but Zhao Jin said: "Because Miss Guo Wu broke someone's secret."
"What's the secret?" Rumei asked tightly, but Zhao Jin was a little embarrassed and refused to say it again.
"What's the secret?" Seeing Zhao Jin like this, Ru Mei was even more anxious, and she stretched out her hand to pull Zhao Jin's sleeve. Seeing this, Mrs. Zhao frowned slightly.
The lady who had just spoken for Guo Xiang said, "Hey, everyone heard it just now, it's no secret now."
This lady is a young lady from the literati family. She has not yet finished her hair this year. She is only eleven or twelve years old. She doesn’t have so many concerns and speaks more easily. The noble ladies here look at each other and all lower their heads. It seems that this secret is extremely difficult to talk about, and it really cannot be mentioned.
Yu Ya's heart jumped and looked at Jiang Ruan. The smile on Jiang Ruan's lips seemed to deepen a little. No matter how you look at it, she had a strange look. She stared at Jiang Ruan tightly, and her brows gradually frowned.
"What the hell is it?" said the county magistrate softly: "I'm not afraid of speaking."
The little lady said indifferently: "Just say it, the secret is that the eldest lady of the Xia family is the second master's child."
