Concubine's plan

Even though he felt uncomfortable, he still wanted to defend his daughter and said:"Dong'er and Qing'er are both distinguished girls from the Hou family. How can they show up in public and do business? If people find out, I'm afraid they will make fun of them after they die."It's true."

Some people will indeed laugh at the Hou family. They can't even take care of the two girls, and they still have to show their faces to find a way out. If this word spreads, the marriage of the two girls will be difficult.

Xun Yingju thought in her heart that the Houfu girl had a distinguished status, she was just a small village girl, and she was not afraid of these rumors. And as long as Lu Shaoyuan didn't dislike her, she really didn't need to take it to heart what others thought.

Hearing this, Lu Zhentao couldn't say much else. After all, the reputation of relying on his daughter to support his family was not very good, which showed that he, the Marquis of Zhenguo, was too incompetent and needed his daughter to support his family.

"That's what the lady said."Xun Yingju only agreed. She didn't say any more. She just sat there quietly, as if nothing happened.

Mrs. Wei's heart felt blocked. She felt that this Xun Yingju was really difficult to deal with. She punched her like It was as if it were beaten on cotton. She had to find a way to get the money from this girl's hand. With so many people in the Hou Mansion, the daily expenses were not a small amount.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Wei said again:"It is really difficult for our Hou Mansion now. If it weren't for the sake of the Marquis's reputation, I would have gone out to do some small business and earn some money to supplement my family's income."

Hearing this, Lu Zhentao raised his eyebrows slightly, and his expression turned unpleasant. He seemed to disagree with such words, but he didn't say much, as if he didn't care why Wei said this. Naturally,

Xun Yingju wouldn't say much either. , after all, this was a family matter, and it was not good for her as an outsider to get involved.

Seeing that the old and the young were very cunning, Ms. Wei remained silent after hearing her words. She secretly cursed the two of them for being cunning, like an old fox, A little fox is a master who is unwilling to suffer. Thinking of this, she simply said something else and said with a smile:"The family is naturally happy that Shao Yuan and the girl come back to live with the family, but they also have to pay some living expenses to the family, and later I have left Zhuangzi to Shaoyuan to take care of it, so I have to bear some of the family expenses."

That's right. A few days ago, Lu Zhentao handed over several large villages in the Hou Mansion to Lu Shaoyuan. Lu Shaoyuan was usually very busy and had no time to take care of them, so he handed them over directly to Xun Yingju, and Xun Yingju had experience. , Lu Shaoyuan would not worry about not taking good care of it.

After hearing what Wei said, Xun Yingju knew that it was not easy for her to refuse directly, so she could only say with a smile:"Brother Lu and I also know that the house is difficult. For this reason, the eldest brother also told me to buy it in the capital as soon as possible. A suitable house so that we can move there as soon as possible so that we won’t be a burden to the government."

"You..., you want to move out?"Ms. Wei looked shocked and looked at Xun Yingju in disbelief, as if she was just telling a joke.

"There is no way the Hou Mansion will miss out on the two of you. Shaoyuan has been away for several years, and now he has moved out just after returning to the capital. If people find out, I am afraid there will be random speculation again, so you can rest assured in the mansion. live."Lu Zhentao glanced at Mrs. Wei coldly, then turned to comfort Xun Yingju.

Mrs. Wei immediately shrank her neck when Lu Zhentao glared at her, and did not dare to say anything more. After all, if Lu Zhentao was really angry, she would not suffer the consequences. , maybe she will be punished. Thinking of this, I feel even more unhappy with Xun Yingju. I feel that what happened to her today is all caused by Xun Yingju. There is nothing I can do about this girl now. Wait until this girl gets married and see how she handles this death. Girl.

Naturally, Xun Yingju didn't know what Mrs. Wei was thinking. Even if she knew it, she wouldn't take it to heart. It's normal for a mother-in-law to rub her daughter-in-law into something. Even if Xun Hongde married Mrs. Hu, Mrs. Hu, Mrs. Xun didn't care. Give up the opportunity to rub Mr. Hu, and Mrs. Hu suffered a lot from her mother-in-law. Now

, whether she can rub her daughter-in-law, it is not necessarily something Wei can do.

The scene became quiet for a while, Xun Yingju I didn't want to see Lu Zhentao and his wife having their own thoughts here, so I really stood up and said with a smile:"Uncle Lu, I just came back from outside and I still have things to deal with, so I won't be here to talk to you and my wife."

"Go ahead. If there is anything missing in the yard, just tell your Aunt Wei directly. Lu Zhentao laughed.

"Uh-huh."

_ She has a good reputation at home, but even if her stepson is wandering outside, outsiders only speculate that the relationship between Lu Shaoyuan and Lu Zhentao is not harmonious, but no one speculates that it is the Wei family.

No matter how Wei behaves, he will not be able to gain Xun Yingju's trust. The two were like natural enemies. Xun Yingju always found a way to neutralize Wei's various moves without causing any harm to her. This made Wei feel very aggrieved and unable to attack. After coming out of the main courtyard, Xun Yingju walked back to In my own little courtyard, I am reading by myself at this time. The crisp sound of the children reading makes me energetic and makes me feel much better.

"Does the girl want to move out?"Aunt Jiang felt Xun Yingju's good mood for the first time and asked carefully.

"Of course, if you want to move out, you will always live under the supervision of others, and your life will not be easy.""

"The girl is very considerate. I think Master Lu can take care of the matters regarding the nursing home and the servants for us."Aunt Jiang said with a smile.

"Miss Six, a guest came to visit in the front yard. Madam ordered the servant to invite the girl to come and meet the guest."The little girl said carefully

"Who is this guest? Do I know him?"Xun Yingju didn't move her body, but asked directly

"The madam said that she was here to be the husband of Brother Heng's young master. The madam told her that if possible, please ask the girl to bring the young master with her."The little girl continued.

She just asked me to come over, and now she wants to bring Brother Heng with her. It's really a good plan. If only Xun Yingju goes there alone, I'm afraid she will be rejected by the two gentlemen for not having a tutor, so she will stay and teach her. Brother Heng is knowledgeable and does not try his best. After all, the students are not very respectful to the two gentlemen.

But now is not the time to deal with this little girl. Xun Yingju nodded and looked at Yusheng, who ran into the house knowingly. I went to take Brother Heng away.

The little girl who came to report the news was very proud when she saw that Xun Yingju was not angry. She felt that this sixth girl really came from the countryside and had little knowledge. Her servants did not have the guts to punish her if she did something wrong. It seems that he will be flattened and rounded by Madam at will in the future.
