Xiao Yu returned to Beijing as soon as she was out of confinement. It was already a little cold in mid-October, so even after the confinement, she was still tightly wrapped and got into the carriage.

Because the carriage that Xiao Yu came back in was the special drive of the eldest princess's four horses, it was very spacious inside, and it was no problem to lie down and roll. And the side door of the Hou Mansion is not so big, you can't get in, and the door won't open unless it's a big deal.

When he arrived at the gate of the Hou Mansion, Guan Zhenqi said to her: "Wait a minute, I'll let the warm sedan chair be carried here." ”

"Go ahead!"

Who wants to step through the door and walk in without seeing a sedan chair, Guan Zhenqi asked the porter: "What's the matter?" ”

The porter explained: "Second master, Mother Liu is resting today, and the mothers-in-law who carry the sedan chair are also on holiday today. ”

Guan Zhenqi's face suddenly looked bad, he told Mrs. Guan that he would go home today before going to the summer resort this time, and this kind of thing happened.

Seeing that his face was not very good, the porter said cautiously: "Second master, Mrs. took the eldest grandmother to Huangqi Temple to offer incense, and only the third grandmother is at home." Second master, do you want the old slave to tell the third grandmother. ”

Guan Zhenqi was so angry that she was going to die, her mother was clearly deliberate. Don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, no matter if Xiao Yu has just given birth and is weak, he shouldn't do such a thing for Brother Chen's sake.

With a calm face, Guan Zhenqi said: "Go and inform Cheng Jin, and let him bring a few people to carry a warm sedan chair." ”

After waiting for so long and not coming, Feng Xiaoyu knew that there was a problem. When Guan Zhenqi got into the carriage, she asked, "Why, my mother doesn't allow me to enter the door?" ”

Guan Zhenqi didn't want to say that her mother was not in front of Xiao Yu, but said vaguely: "My mother and sister-in-law went to the temple to offer incense, and the people below were in a mess." ”

Feng Xiaoyu snorted coldly and said, "I know she's angry with me, but Brother Chen is still so young, how can she bear to let her child blow the wind and be cold?" Ah Qi, since my mother is not rare, our brother Chen, then let's go back to Plum Blossom Lane! ”

Guan Zhenqi persuaded and said: "Xiao Yu, there has been no one living in Meihua Lane for a long time, and the floor heating has not been burned, how can you and the child stand it." ”

Feng Xiaoyu wanted to lose her temper, but she endured it when she thought about Qingshu's words. In any case, the husband is already trying his best to protect their mother and son. Losing his temper now is useless except to make Ah Qi feel guilty and difficult. If you don't enter the door, she will only be criticized at that time.

Guan Zhenqi comforted her in a soft voice and said, "If you want to live in Plum Blossom Lane, you can do it, and I will take you to live there when it is cleaned up in a few days." ”

Feng Xiaoyu looked at him with a smile when she heard this: "This is what you said, I didn't force you!" ”

Guan Zhenqi saw that she didn't insist on going to Meihua Lane, and his heart was slightly relieved: "You didn't force me, I wanted to live there myself!" ”

He was telling the truth. Living in Meihua Lane, although I have to run more every day, my life is comfortable, unlike being in the middle of the Hou Mansion, which is very sad.

Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered that his eldest brother didn't seem to like to go home after getting married, could it be that his eldest brother didn't want to go home at that time because his mother and sister-in-law were not on good terms. However, he quickly rejected this idea, her mother and sister-in-law have a good relationship, not like Xiao Yu like the tip of the needle to Mai Mang.

The couple returned to their own yard, only to find that their bedroom was not heated underneath. Guan Zhenqi was furious and scolded Ping'er: "The second grandmother came back with her children today, do you want to freeze them if you don't burn the floor heating on such a cold day?" ”

Ping'er was scolded so tearfully that she couldn't speak.

Mingqin raised his voice and said: "I told the steward yesterday that the county lord will come back today, and he will burn the floor heating today." It's just that Mrs. gave it no, saying that the weather is not cold now, and the floor heating is easy to catch fire. ”

Guan Zhen raised his throat as if he had been choked, and he couldn't say a word.

Feng Xiaoyu said good-naturedly: "It's really too early to burn the floor heating on this day, just burn two pots of charcoal to go to the air conditioner in the house." ”

With that, she went into the house.

Guan Zhenqi scolded Ping'er, who was still crying, "What are you doing here? Hurry up and burn two pots of charcoal. ”

There was no silver frost charcoal in their yard, so Ping'er took a little maid to the lady in charge to ask for it.

It's a pity that Ping'er returned empty-handed this time.

With an unkind look at Shangguan, Ping'er said in a mosquito-like voice: "Second master, Xue Niangzi said that there is no silver frost charcoal in the treasury, and the silver frost charcoal will not arrive in two days. ”

Guan Zhen laughed angrily: "Okay, very good!" ”

He knew very well that these stewards in the Hou Mansion were all her mother's henchmen to marry. Now her mother is embarrassed to Xiao Yu, and these dog things are also watching people put off the dishes.

Mama Xin entered the house and said to Xiao Yu: "County Lord, Ping'er didn't ask for Silver Frost Charcoal, and the second master rushed out angrily to find Xue Niangzi." ”

Xiao Yu sighed and didn't speak.

Mama Xin said: "County Lord, leave this to the second master in advance!" Let's not say anything. When the lady comes back, if there is no reasonable explanation, let's go back to the mansion. ”

She wants to use this kind of indiscriminate means to rub the county lord of her family, when her master is an orphan girl who has no mother to rely on?

Feng Xiaoyu shook her head and said: "If you don't return to the Gongfu, you will go back to Plum Blossom Lane with the Xianggong, and the mother of the Gongfu will talk about it again." ”

She couldn't stand Yan's broken thoughts.

Mama Xin nodded and said, "It's good to go back to Plum Blossom Lane." Anyway, there is also floor heating over there, so I am not afraid of snow when the floor heating is burned. ”

Xue Niangzi didn't coax the door to shake up, and there was indeed no silver frost charcoal in the warehouse. This morning, the last two baskets of silver frost charcoal in the warehouse were all taken away by Jiang Qianwen. There was no way, Guan Zhenqi could only bring back a basket of ordinary charcoal.

Feng Xiaoyu didn't lose his temper or complain, but said: "Cheer up, I'm hungry and want to eat chicken noodle soup." ”

Ping'er went to the kitchen to ask for something, and the kitchen manager happily brought the things, and the chickens even sent two.

Ordinary charcoal, even if you pick the best one, will have smoke. Xiao Yu brought tears to her eyes, and quickly said, "Move out, move out." ”

Just when Guan Zhenqi was about to let people go outside to buy silver frost charcoal, Mrs. Shizi's personal maid sent a basket of silver frost charcoal over. Xiao Yu didn't see the maid, but Silver Frost Charcoal was under her hands.

After eating a bowl of chicken noodle soup, Feng Xiaoyu took a handkerchief and wiped his mouth with Guan Zhenqi and smiled: "I used to hear Qingshu say that when a person is very hungry, even if he gnaws a nest, it is very delicious. I didn't expect that after living for 20 years, I would experience the taste of hunger today. ”

She has grown up in the splendid pile since she was a child, eating delicacies from the mountains and seas and wearing silk and satin. Hungry, she never thought it would fall on herself.

When Guan Zhenqi heard this, he became more and more guilty: "Xiao Yu, I'm sorry, marrying me made you feel wronged." ”

Feng Xiaoyu said: "Cheer up, I don't want you to be embarrassed, so I endured my anger and entered the door, but I really can't live here." I am the daughter-in-law who married in, and my mother-in-law doesn't treat me as a family, but what about Brother Chen? He is a descendant of your Guan family, and his mother-in-law doesn't even care if he lives or dies. ”

Guan Zhenqi held her hand and said, "Xiao Yu, I'll tell him this when my father comes back in the evening." If my mother doesn't apologize to you, I'll take you to move out, and we'll come back for a meal during the New Year's holidays in the future. ”

If his mother doesn't apologize and don't correct his attitude, then he has to make a decision. Otherwise, in the future, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quarrel every day, how can they live this life.

Of course, Feng Xiaoyu wants to be the master of the house, but what should be said is still to say: "Mother-in-law will not agree, if she wants to make trouble, you will have to bear the name of unfilial piety." ”

Guan Zhenqi shook his head and said, "Don't worry, there won't be such a thing." ”

Thinking that his father-in-law was more inclined to Guan Zhenqi, Feng Xiaoyu's heart was a little relieved: "Zhenqi, then you will tell your father-in-law not to make him angry." ”
