Chapter 27 She is stalling for time
"Butler Wang! Didn't you listen to the Second Young Lady? The Eldest Young Master has things to do in there and doesn't have time to go back with you!"
Caihe stood in front of Yu Xunhuan with her hands on her hips, stopping Butler Wang who was about to rush in.
The second young lady said that Miss Xu and the eldest young master loved each other, but the eldest young master's wife was a jealous woman and would not allow the eldest young master to take a concubine no matter what.
They are also helping the young master. How can they let a housekeeper ruin the young master's good deeds?
Moreover, she had also met Miss Xu, who was very generous. When she heard that Miss Xu was now the second young lady's personal maid, she quickly took out a jade bracelet and gave it to her.
She said that following the Second Young Lady was better than following the Empress!
The Queen was reluctant to give them such a good jade bracelet.
Caihe thought of this, raised her wrist and touched the crystal clear bracelet.
Steward Wang was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He took out the badge given by Duke Yu.
"Get out of here! I'm here on the master's orders! There's something extremely urgent, please go back, young master!"
"Ahem, Steward Wang." Yu Xunhuan came out weakly, glancing at him disapprovingly. "What's the most urgent matter? Isn't it just my sister's visit today? It's not a big deal, so why would I send you all the way here?"
"Okay, go back now! I'll go back with my brother later."
Butler Wang was very angry. The master had said that he must bring the eldest young master back no matter what.
"Get out of the way! If you don't, I'll force my way in!"
Cai He glared fiercely, "Oh my, you are just a housekeeper in the Duke's Mansion, and our Second Miss is the mistress. What? Do you still want to use roughness on our Second Miss?"
"Everyone, come and take a look! This butler is bullying his master. A butler even wants to attack his own lady. Everyone, please judge the situation!"
When the confused onlookers saw this scene, they immediately thought that it was a vicious slave bullying a weak woman, and they all surrounded them.
"Whose housekeeper is this? He's quite courageous. He actually wants to hit his own lady? Isn't he afraid of being sold out?"
"I think this kind of cunning slave should be dragged out, beaten up, and then sold!"
Everyone was talking at once and blocked them outside.
Butler Wang’s face turned green with anger.
"My dear, something terrible has happened! The Siming record has changed again. Even if the housekeeper goes there, it will be useless! Yu Xunhuan will use the identity of the second lady to block the housekeeper outside. Your uncle..."
【What? ! 】
Yuanyuan was so anxious that he kept flapping his hands and feet.
[Ah! How can I get my mother to take Yuanyuan to Chunfenglou? This Yu Xunhuan is so abominable! She knew that the boss behind Chunfenglou was my aunt, but she still deliberately let my uncle have sex with Xu Xianyu and Jiangjiang Niangniang at Chunfenglou! Isn't this stabbing my aunt in the heart?]
Bang!
Wang stood up suddenly in excitement, and the chair behind her lost its balance and fell heavily to the ground.
Everyone looked at her in unison.
Wang tried her best to hide the anger in her eyes and clenched her hands tremblingly.
"Father and Mother, there's something I've never told you. Chunfenglou is my business, and today is its second anniversary. Father and Mother, how about going to Chunfenglou with me for dinner?"
Fearing the elders would disagree, she hurriedly continued, "The chef has just developed some new dishes these past two days, and I'm worried about having no one to review them. How about we go try them together today while His Majesty and my sister are back?"
Yuanyuan chuckled happily when she heard this.
[Ahh! You're truly a capable aunt! You're truly the apple of Yuan Yuan's eye!]
[Go, go, go! Hurry to Chunfeng Tower! It will be too late if you don’t go now…]
The Duke and Madam Yu were also extremely anxious, but since His Majesty was here, they couldn't express their opinions.
What if Your Majesty still thinks they don't want him to have dinner at home?
The Duke nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Emperor Beijing: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Emperor Beijing had been unable to sit still for a long time and wanted to read some gossip. When he heard Duke Yu say this, he nodded quickly.
"I've already said that today I'm just your son-in-law, and everything will be at your disposal."
Duke Yu instantly breathed a sigh of relief and stood up with a smile: "Then I'll have to trouble Your Majesty to have dinner at Chunfeng Tower."
The family came to Chunfeng Tower in a hurry.
Fortunately, Chunfeng Tower is not far from the Duke's Mansion, and it takes less than a quarter of an hour to get there.
As soon as I walked onto the street, I saw from a distance that the housekeeper was blocked outside the door and was arguing with someone.
Wang was so angry that she rushed forward and asked, "What are you doing?! Why are you blocking the door?"
Yu Xun Huan saw Wang coming and was immediately panicked. He quickly forced a smile and said, "Sister-in-law? Why are you here?"
"I came to see your brother! Didn't my younger sister have an appointment with Miss Xu to appreciate the flowers today? Why did you come to my Chunfeng Tower to appreciate the flowers?"
Wang Shi now has a bad face when she sees Yu Xunhuan. She didn’t know that Yu Xunhuan was thinking this way before, so she was quite nice to her.
I often bought small things for her, and sometimes, if I got some good cloth, I would think of giving her two pieces.
I didn't expect to raise such an ungrateful person.
Not only did she tie up an outsider to plot against her husband, she also deliberately chose her Chunfeng Tower.
If she hadn't been able to hear the inner voice of little baby Yuan Yuan, she wouldn't have known that under Yu Xunhuan's innocent and kind appearance, there was such a disgusting face.
"Sister-in-law, you may not know, but we heard that Chunfenglou has some new dishes recently, so we said we wanted to come and try them."
After Yu Xunhuan finished speaking, he suddenly realized something, his eyes flashed, and he pretended not to know and asked:
"What did sister-in-law mean by that? Could it be that Chunfenglou is owned by sister-in-law?"
Wang sneered and asked the question even though she knew the answer.
"yes!"
After Wang finished speaking, she took a step forward and Caihe immediately blocked her way.
"What? Since when did Chunfenglou become my sister-in-law's territory? I, the proprietress, won't even be allowed in?"
A flash of embarrassment crossed Yu Xunhuan's face. He tugged at Caihe and said to Wang, "Sister-in-law, you may not know that the students from Bailu Academy are holding a poetry gathering here today. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for a woman like you to go in."
[Pooh, pooh, pooh! My aunt is the boss's wife. What's inappropriate about her appearing in her own restaurant? Besides, if you, an unmarried woman, can come, why can't my aunt come?]
[Aunt, stop talking nonsense with her. She's just trying to stall for time!]
Upon hearing this, Wang was anxious and wanted to push Cai He away.
Concubine Yu couldn't help it and spoke before Wang Shi could.
"If my sister-in-law isn't suitable, then you are? After all, my sister-in-law is the proprietress of Chunfeng Tower. Even if others see it, they won't say anything! But you, an unmarried woman, are here among a group of men. If someone doesn't know, they would think that you can't get married and are here to pick a man!"
Concubine Yu walked forward with Yuan Yuan in her arms, sneering, and looked at Yu Xunhuan with a poisonous look on her lips.
[Yeah, yeah! Mommy is awesome! Yuanyuan loves what she said!]
When Caihe saw Concubine Yu, her face turned pale and she subconsciously took a step back.
When Yu Xunhuan saw Caihe's actions, a cold light flashed in his eyes. Useless thing!
"Sister, you misunderstood me. I just..."
Duke Yu pushed her away, unable to bear it any longer. "Shut up, old man! Get out of the way! Are you planning to keep His Majesty standing outside this door forever?!"
"Your Majesty?" Yu Xunhuan suddenly raised his head and looked behind the crowd. When he saw the cold face of Emperor Beijing, his heart began to beat wildly.
