36. Chapter Thirty-Six(2/3)

They all lived well, and the only thing that changed was her, the Queen Mother, and the Northwest Hou family.

Now they are the best people, enjoying everything from fame, wealth, power and wealth. And she is now just a humble little daughter in a concubine's house.

If you want to take revenge, you have to consider your current identity.

Although she would never give up like that.

Xing'er, a little girl from behind, whispered: "Fourth Lady, we should go back. If you are later, the wife should say to you."

Yuan Jin nodded, picked up the small bamboo basket and walked in front.

The Xue family where Yuan Jin is now located is an ordinary official family in Taiyuan Prefecture. The largest official in the family is just a fifth rank, the eldest master of the eldest rank. Her father Xue Qingshan was a concubine and found a position as the Minister of the Yuanmasi Temple, but he had no real power.

Xue Yuanjin's current mother, Cui, is the daughter of a gentry in Bingzhou. She has never read any books and is also an ordinary woman.

As soon as Yuan Jin stepped into the door of the west wing, he saw Cui walking towards him.

Cui wore a lilac-colored brocade robe, who was in his early thirties. It was obviously early summer weather, but she was holding a ball of fan and fanning it. It seemed that she was very angry. When she saw Yuan Jin, she glared: "Why are you back now!"

Yuan Jin put down the small bamboo basket and said, "The nanny who taught needlework today came late."

Cui picked up the peony embroidered in her bamboo basket and looked at it, and couldn't help but say: "You

Who dares to use it for such a crooked embroidery? You are now thirteen. Please save some fun for your mother and practice the girl better. In the future, the matchmaker will have a tip."

Yuan Jin was just drinking water. Seeing that she didn't listen, Cui grabbed her ear with one hand: "Did you hear what you said in your mother?"

Yuan Jin couldn't hold back his expression, and his ears were sore that he immediately said, "I'm listening!"

After Cui let go, she rubbed her painful ears and burst into anger. If this were the case before, who would dare to treat her like this?

The tiger falls into the sun and is bullied by a dog!

She couldn't even hold on to the county lord's demeanor, and she would always lose her composure when she met Cui.

When she was the lord of Danyang County, she had never learned female red embroidery. She could understand poetry, calligraphy and painting, and was proficient in military tactics, and could also understand the political situation.

But in Cui's eyes, these are better than being able to do acupuncture and needlework.

"You are still young, how can you know the importance of marrying a good husband? My mother married your father, who was a concubine, but now she lowered her head in front of your legitimate aunt." Cui taught her with her own personal experience, "You are not as good as your cousins. Try to practice the female red needle better and gain a virtuous reputation so that you can get married well in the future."

Yuan Jin doesn't want to listen to this topic.

After all, the only ones who could talk about marriage with her before were the only young men from aristocratic families in the capital. Now it is really hard to be interested in telling her that she will change her destiny by marrying her.

What's more, Cui is too naive. Having a virtuous name can't make her marry well. If she hadn't had an outstanding family background, everything would be empty talk.

She looks very beautiful now. She is elegant and graceful at a young age, and her skin is better than snow. Although she has not yet grown completely, it is not worse than her previous life. But without the support of her family background, it may not be a good thing to grow like this.

She asked Cui: "What's wrong with you looking for me?"

When Cui was reminded by his daughter, she remembered the serious matter and said to her happily, "Mom is going to tell you that the country's family will hold a garden party tomorrow, and all the women in our mansion will be invited!"

Yuan Jin heard this and thought for a moment, and she knew about the Duke Ding Mansion.

There is only one Duke in Taiyuan Prefecture, which is Duke Ding. This Duke Ding was brave and good at fighting, and was named first-class Duke, and had military power in hand, so he was extremely powerful. Moreover, Duke Ding seemed to have a good relationship with Prince Jing.

Yuan Jin lived in the deep palace for a long time. Although she had never seen these powerful people outside the capital, she knew about them all.

Unexpectedly, the Xue family was still related to this kind of gentry family. She thought the Xue family was really ordinary.

"In Taiyuan Mansion, it is only possible for people with some strong faces to go. Fortunately, our family is still the sidelines of the Duke Dingguo Mansion, so we were invited. I have made you a new dress, and you will try to fit it later." Cui asked the girl to carry out the clothes she had just made and to Yuan Jin.

"What new clothes she deserves to wear!" A young male voice came from outside, and a boy seven or eight years old walked in with someone. He was young, with a fleshy face and a pair of almond eyes similar to Yuan Jin.

This person is Yuan Jin's younger brother Xue Jinyu. Because Cui had only this son, he was very pampered and arrogant and arrogant.

He sat down next to Cui, took Cui's hand and said coquettishly, "Mom, I'm going to eat rock candy elbows tonight!"

This brother only loves to be unable to get along with her, and he often sarcastically. Yuan Jin looked at his stinky face and teased him, "I'm so fat and I still eat it."

Xue Jinyu couldn't hear others saying that he was fat, so she jumped up immediately: "How come I got fat! The braised pork with chestnuts made by a nanny yesterday, you just ate the meat."

Yuan Jin has a physique that can not be fat. For such accusation, he just turned his head and continued to drink her water.

Cui protected his son, hugged Xue Jinyu and coaxed him, "Your sister is just kidding you, boys just need to grow stronger."

Cui finally kissed and hugged his little ancestor and glared at Yuan Jin. "What are you doing to mess with your brother? It's important to get your insoles done right now!"

Yuan Jin stopped talking. Cui spoiled boys so much that he would only slap Xue Jinyu. If it were someone else, he would beat Xue Jinyu to obey with just a few beats. But Cui protected his son,

She would not allow others to intervene at all, and she does not have the leisure time now.

Cui was still angry and said to the person who came in with Xue Jinyu at the door: "What are you doing when you are standing there? Why don't you come in quickly!"

Yuan Jin looked up and saw the child coming in with Xue Jinyu at the door.

He stood silently, with extremely thin shoulders and his robe on his body, his face was extremely thin and delicate. Although he was not old, he had a white complexion and elegant eyebrows.

This person is Xue Yuanjin's younger brother, Xue Wenyu.

Cui himself is fierce, so Xue Qingshan has never dared to take a concubine. Xue Wenyu is Yuan Jin's only concubine brother.

Xue Wenyu's biological mother passed away when he was very young. Cui treated him very well. After all, he didn't come out of his own belly. He sent an old mother to take care of his daily life and ignored him.

This gangster has been a little abnormal since he was a child. He doesn't like to talk, and it seems that he has some mental problems.

Xue Wenyu heard Cui call him, but her eyes flashed slightly but did not step forward. She was still pulled by the nanny behind her and took her to the table to prepare for dinner.

Seeing that everyone was here, Cui asked Cuixi to pick out each dish for Xue Qingshan, and then started eating with her three children.

Although the Xue family is not a big family, it is also a family of officials, and the food level is naturally not bad. Two plates of fried meat, one plate of leeks and shrimps, and the rock candy pig's trotters that Xue Jinyu wants to eat, a side dish and a vegetarian soup, but it is naturally much inferior to the delicacies that Yuan Jin had eaten before.

But I don’t know if I have a vulgar taste or have become more and more accustomed to these home-cooked dishes. Yuan Jin actually ate more than before and added a bowl of soup after the meal.

Yuan Jin drank the soup and looked at Xue Wenyu sitting beside her.

She realized that his hand holding food seemed to be a little wrong, and his movements were stiff. She frowned and asked Madam Song behind Xue Wenyu: "What's wrong with the Fourth Master's hand?"

Madam Song was also confused: "I don't know..."

Xue Wenyu seemed to have not heard it and continued to pick up food. However, Yuan Jin felt something was wrong as he looked at it. He stood up and pulled his hand over to see it.

He seemed to want to retract, but Yuan Jin couldn't allow him to go back. When he opened it, he found that the wounds in his palm were crisscrossed. In some places, the blood had not stopped, and blood was still leaching out.

When Xue Yuanjin saw this situation, he frowned and asked Madam Song: "How did this happen?"

Madam Song hesitated for a moment before saying, "In the afternoon, the young master said he wanted to play with him, so he turned out to be like this..."

Yuan Jin's face turned cold, and she looked at Xue Jinyu: "You did it?"

Yuan Jin knew that Xue Jinyu had always been bad to this gangster, and he was careless of saying it was not good. He was simply happy to bully Xue Wenyu.

He once pushed him into the pond in the middle of winter, and the cold was so cold that he had only retreated for four or five days. He was deceived into the woodshed and locked up. He was so naughty and absurd, but in Cui's eyes, he naturally did not take Wen Yu, the illegitimate one seriously, turned a blind eye, and he turned a big thing into a small matter every time.

But in Yuan Jin's opinion, Xue Wenyu is different from a normal person and cannot express his joys, sorrows and pains. Isn't bullying such a concubine's son a bully?

Although she had a very high status before, she hated such people the most. If she had the ability, she would bully powerful people. What's the point of bullying a child?

What's more, if such a thing is spread, people will guide their family behind their backs to treat their concubine's sons, which will not benefit anyone's reputation. Cui never takes this kind of thing seriously and is too rough to be honest. Therefore, the whole family is mediocre and has no ambition.

Xue Jinyu rarely sees her sister's stern expression, and she is actually shocked for a moment.

Xue Yuanjin usually quarrels with him, but he just teases him. He actually knew that Xue Yuanjin had never really been concerned about him. But her expression at this moment made Xue Jinyu realize that her sister was different from the past, which made Xue Jinyu feel a little guilty. "It was him who insisted on playing with a dagger, and hurting herself, it has nothing to do with me..."

Yuan Jin's voice became a little stern: "If you say it has nothing to do with you, try?"

Xue Jinyu immediately looked at Cui: "Mom..."

Cui rarely sees his daughter like this. Her daughter has always been easy-going. She usually doesn't refute whatever you say. Once her daughter is strict, she

It became more powerful, and she really couldn't refute her.

Cui smoothed out: "Your brother probably didn't do it on purpose. I think he seemed to be seriously injured. You should take him to apply medicine first. I'll ask the girl to bring supper to your house."

Yuan Jin sneered, but Cui didn't care about this kind of thing, so he let Xue Jinyu go from now on!

I don’t know that Cui is protecting Xue Jinyu, and she really doesn’t value this concubine’s son.

Continuing to tell Cui that there would be no result. Yuan Jin took Xue Wenyu back to the east wing where he lived, asked Xing'er to light the oil lamp and put it on the table. She brought gauze and medicinal wine. She grabbed Xue Wenyu's wrist and asked him to sit down. He wanted to retract again, as if he felt a little unsafe, but Yuan Jin pressed it tightly.

"It won't be a problem." Yuan Jin said, and then she opened the medicinal wine and bandaged it for him.

His hands and fingers are slender and have clear joints. His face is really beautiful, with delicate facial features, a high nose bridge, and thin lips.

Just looking at the child's appearance, you can guess what kind of beauty his mother is.

"How did you do this injury?" Yuan Jin asked him.

Xue Wenyu lowered her head and did not speak.

Yuan Jin said lightly: "You won't answer me even if you think you are. But you are so big. If he bullies you, you can tell others, why bother to bully him." Yuan Jin didn't hear the answer, so he looked up at him, "Do you know?"

She just realized that Xue Wenyu had light brown eyes and was looking at her quietly. When she looked at people with such pupils, she seemed particularly focused.

After she looked up at herself, Xue Wenyu turned her eyes away and looked elsewhere.

She felt that he was young, so she rubbed his head: "Did you hear what my sister said?"

Xue Wenyu did not avoid her hand, as if she was stunned by her touch.

Yuan Jin asked Xing'er to put away the medicinal wine, thinking that she had heard the empress dowager say about this disease before. Some were born like this, and some were abused when they were young, so they became self-enclosed. I don't know which type of Xue Wenyu is. I heard that Cui also invited the doctor to see Xue Wenyu. After taking a few medicines, I didn't get better, so there was no further information.

"The fourth young master is really pitiful." Xing'er looked at Xue Wenyu and said sympathetically, "I beat the young man and I am often bullied by the young master, but my wife doesn't care."
