Chapter 520: Chess Pieces
Miss Yao Er felt comfortable staying here, and her tense heartstrings relaxed a little, "Miss Zhou is so elegant."
Xue Han doesn't like complicated things. She feels that there are intrigues everywhere around her, so she just wants to live a simpler life. "As long as Miss Yao likes it, that's fine."
Su Xuan looked at Miss Yao II with interest. To be honest, she didn't know much about this lady. She had only heard about her, such as being rude and arrogant. Now it seemed that they were all rumors of jealousy. At least she had seen a lot of pretenders. This lady was arrogant, but she was not difficult to get along with.
Su Xuan fiddled with the teacup in her hand, and the chrysanthemums in the cup had already spread out, so beautiful. Her sister-in-law was so considerate. She would make chrysanthemum tea for her every time she came. Then she looked at the clear tea of her sister-in-law and Miss Yao Er, and felt helpless. Why did it seem that the whole family thought she had a bad temper?
In fact, she really doesn't think she has a bad temper. She would vent her anger every time she gets angry. Instead, she feels that Changzhi is becoming less and less calm. He is angry every day, which really makes people want to tease him. She is too satisfied with her current life.
Su Xuan put down her teacup and asked casually, "Why did Miss Yao come to Jinzhou City?"
Second Miss Yao, Yao Yao's eyes turned cold. Why did she come back? She was forced to do so. She felt sad. She couldn't escape. She and her eldest brother were both birds in a cage. No, her eldest brother was about to break free, but she was too concerned to be bound. "Haha, I came to see my eldest brother. I was worried about him being alone."
Su Xuan and Xue Han looked at each other. They didn't tell the truth, but they didn't ask any more questions. Miss Yao Er was not in control just now. At least they knew that she didn't come here willingly.
Yao Yao had already calmed down and said with a smile, "Don't call me Second Miss, my name is Yao Yao, you can call me Yao Yao."
Su Xuan thought for a moment, "Then don't call me Anhe, Su Xuan."
Xue Han smiled, "Zhou Xue Han."
Yao Yao curled the corners of her mouth. She really came at the right time today. Her intuition has always been accurate. She always knows who to make friends with and who not to make friends with. She just wants to have two days to relax a little. After two days, she will still be a chess piece, and a chess piece that can be discarded at any time.
An hour and a half later, Yao Yao said goodbye. Zhu Lan tried to persuade him to stay, "Lunch is ready. Would you like to eat before leaving?"
Yao Yao apologized, "Brother has something else to ask me. I'm so sorry."
Zhulan looked at Miss Yao Er and didn't say next time, which meant she wouldn't come again. "It's a pity indeed. Su Xuan will send Miss Yao Er off."
Su Xuan stood up and said, "This way please."
Xue Han thought about it and followed them. She had a good impression of Yao Yao. Regardless of her background, she admired Miss Yao today. After an hour and a half of discussion, she was proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she also gave her a lot of advice.
Zhulan and the others left, and said to Mrs. Song, "Su Xuan and Xue Han like Miss Yao very much."
Zhulan knows her own people well. Although Su Xuan appears to be carefree, she is actually very cautious. Xuehan can see through everything, so few people can fool her.
Mrs. Song had never been to the Marquis's Mansion. She was only from the Ding generation and was not good at judging people. "Ms. Yao is a good person."
Zhulan nodded in agreement. It was clear from the gift she gave that beneath her arrogance she was actually a very careful person. It was a pity that Yao Zheyu could jump out and fight for her, but Miss Yao couldn't. What a pity.
Zhulan felt a little upset again. The Yao family asked Miss Yao to come, but Miss Yao was not engaged to the Fifth Prince. The Fifth Prince came back secretly, but everyone in the capital is an expert in chain cultivation and they know everything. If they sent Second Miss Yao here, haha, it was the woman who was abandoned in the game.
It would be fine if they were engaged, but it is not possible. However, whether they are engaged or not, it is Second Miss Yao who will suffer. If they are engaged, it is obvious that there is something wrong with the Emperor's attitude towards the Fifth Prince. If they are not engaged, no one will want Second Miss Yao.
Su Xuan and Xue Han came back. Su Xuan said, "Mother, Miss Yao didn't come here voluntarily."
Zhu Lan said faintly, "But it's here after all."
Even though I knew there was no future on this road, I still embarked on it.
Su Xuan also felt heavy in her heart. The more she understood Yao Yao, the more she liked her. Yao Yao's piano playing just now made her feel depressed. She felt that she was really happy. "Mom, I'm going back first."
Xue Han stayed, "Mom, I'll have lunch with you."
Zhulan smiled and said, "Okay."
Su Xuan returned to the yard and sat on the lounge chair under the tree listlessly. She had seen too much and still felt nauseous.
Chang Zhi in the room touched his stomach and felt hungry. His wife should have called him to eat at this time, but why didn't she call him today? He put down the book in his hand and went out, and saw his wife with a lonely expression. He didn't like Su Xuan like this. Although Su Xuan was bold, he liked the flamboyant and unrestrained Su Xuan.
Changzhi motioned the maid and the old woman to go down, and walked to the chair. "My wife is thinking about the big characters she copied this afternoon. I thought about it carefully."
Su Xuan came back to her senses and stared at Chang Zhi nervously. This man was damn principled. He was determined that nothing he said would work. She even tried to act coquettishly, but it didn't work. "What did you think of?"
Changzhi smiled, "I think your calligraphy has improved. To keep improving, you should copy five more pieces every day. I will copy with you. Are you happy?"
Su Xuan tried her luck, "Zhou Changzhi."
Changzhi ran away, and Suxuan stood up, "Stop right there, bah, I'm not happy, not at all."
God knows why she would practice calligraphy since she is not taking the imperial examination.
The old woman and the maid outside the courtyard gate looked at each other, breathed a sigh of relief, and then laughed. This kind of life was pretty good.
Qi Mo looked up at the sky in silence. He felt that the Fourth Master was becoming less and less afraid of death. It was as if he would feel uncomfortable all over if he didn't make the Fourth Madam angry for a day, and he had to relax a little.
At the Yao Mansion, Prince Yao waited for his sister to come back. "Are you happy?"
Yao Yao sat down comfortably, "Well, I'm very happy today."
It's so relaxing without a mother, a sanctimonious father, a troublesome concubine's daughter, or anything in the Marquis's Mansion.
Yao Zheyu's heart tightened, "You"
Yao Yao narrowed his eyes, "It's my choice, though, big brother."
Yao Zheyu looked deeply at his only sister, with whom he still had a decent relationship, and asked, "What?"
Yayao said seriously, "Miss Zhou is engaged. They are childhood sweethearts and have a deep relationship. It's better for you to stop thinking about her, brother."
Yao Zheyu was silent for a moment and rubbed his sister's head. This girl was the most pretentious person in the mansion. Haha, it should be said that they were all pretentious.
In the evening, at Zhou's house, Zhulan could tell that Zhou Shuren was worried about something, so he went to find Mr. Meng after dinner. Zhulan thought that she would not be able to wait for Zhou Shuren to come back, but he came back before going to bed.
Zhulan lowered her voice, "What happened?"
Zhou Shuren shook his head, "The emperor sent someone to deliver some information, and I also found out a lot here."
Zhulan lowered her voice and asked, "What news did you send?"
