Chapter 44: Backlash

Seeing this, everyone in the room stepped forward and asked why.
Fu Chuoxian smiled forcefully, and said, "I met someone...just a rude person!"
She didn't seem to want to talk about it, so she dealt with it and walked upstairs, "I'm a little tired, I want to take a rest, see you tomorrow!"
Although everyone was a little surprised, she looked like her face was wrong, but her clothes were neat and her makeup looked good, and she didn't seem to have suffered a big loss. If you care about a few words, it's fine to watch her go upstairs.
Xi Fuwei was already on the stairs, and when she saw Fu Chuoxian coming up, she went up first.
She changed her clothes when she returned to the house. She didn't want Hongzhi to come and knock on the door, saying that Fu Chuoxian wanted to invite her to speak.
"Sister Fu, are you okay?" Xi Fuwei agreed, tidied up, and went to the other side.
Seeing that Fu Chuoxian had already changed back to his home with regular dresses, and the face that had just been washed without powder, she looked radiant, like a flawless jade. It's just that between the eyebrows there is a strong color of resentment, which is obviously not calm.
She couldn't help but ask Nuan a few words, "Do you remember who that person is today? Tell your lady back and ask her to be the master, and she will show him good looks!"
Xi Fuwei thought that Fu Chuoxian had been molested by a rich man who came to the banquet, but Fu Chuoxian smiled bitterly when he heard the words, but shook his head and said, "That one who even the old lady must be careful with sincerely and sincerely! Where does Madam dare to show others good looks?"
"What did my sister say?" Xi Fuwei was startled.
Fu Chuoxian said bitterly: "Who else can it be? Naturally, it is the guest of today, the lady of Dingguo Gongfu!"
"Xu Jingyuan?" Xi Fuwei asked in surprise, "why did she make things difficult for you?"
I thought to myself, Xu Jingyuan was not because of his anger against Fu Chuoxian, right?
"..." Fu Chuoxian bit his lip. After a while, he said, "I ran into a few princes in the garden. Because they came to Zou Mansion for the first time and were not familiar with the route, I showed them the way. I'm also a gentleman of Zhili, isn't this just thanking me? So after saying a few words, it was... The lady didn't know why she was unhappy. She just happened to pass by. After seeing it, she suddenly walked up and took me from the beginning. The tail yelled at him, and said that I...that I and those princes... anyway, it's very hard to hear!"
She said this.
However, Xi Fuwei knew that the truth was that Fu Chuoxian had managed to pick up a few beloved son-in-law candidates, and even sacrificed his talent at the bottom of the box. When he tried to catch one, he ran into the calculation failure. Xu Jingyuan who is full of fire...
The reason why Xu Jingyuan wanted to help Song Jianiang target Xi Fuwei, at least on the surface, was that she thought Xi Fuwei was trying to seduce Shen Lan. Fu Chuoxian even took the qin out. At the birthday banquet, she is Mr. Zoufu female, and she is not a music performer. Isn't she clear at a glance?
Seeing this, it would be strange to let Fu Chuoxian go!
"This Miss Xu is really domineering too!" Xi Fuwei sighed and said, "Fortunately, she has nothing to do with the Zou Mansion. She left after eating the birthday wine."
Fu Chuoxian said bitterly: "They are the younger sister of Dingguo, the niece of the late Queen’s wife, and the cousin of the prince's first-in-law... Is it possible for such a prominent background to not be overbearing? I don’t understand, she The eldest lady came all the way to Shandong, and she had to come to Zou Mansion, which had nothing to do with Dingguo Mansion. What is she going to do? Is it just for trouble! But whether it's me or Zou Mansion, it's all. I didn't offend her!"
"Where can we guess this kind of noble thoughts?" Xi Fuwei comforted, "Sister, don't think too much! The right is to give Zou Mansion face. After all, Zou Mansion is not bad for us, if it collides within Zou Mansion. This Miss Xu, the old lady is also embarrassed."
"I think so too." Fu Chuoxian nodded, "Although the lintel of the Fu family is far inferior to the Dingguo Mansion, but I grew up like a beloved baby, for no reason, why should I be so angry? Just as you have said. In other words, the Zou Mansion is really not bad for us, and we must consider them."
After stepping off the stage with the ladder handed by Xi Fuwei, she talked about asking Xi Fuwei to come over, "Next month is my birthday, I plan to have a small party. It’s just that I didn’t write very well. Can't you ask you to write some invitations?"
Of course Xi Fuwei agreed to such a trivial matter, and then angered her: "My sister didn't say anything sooner for such a big thing. I was so ready to prepare a gift earlier! It's only a few days since this is the case? Urgent, if there is any negligence, sister can't blame me!"
"What's this big deal?" Fu Chuoxian smiled. "It's just to invite everyone to have a meal!"
Then he said, "The place I chose is Qinglian Tower."
The Qinglian Tower is based on the allusions of the poet Li Taibai. Because Li Bai's family lived in Jining for many years, the spring beside the Qinglian Tower is said to be the location of Li Baihuan's pen.
Because Li Bai's fame is too loud and good wine, the Qinglianlou Taibailou, named after his name, has never been less throughout the country.
The Qinglian Tower in Jining is one of them, and it is also considered to be relatively unfamiliar locally.
At least Xi Fuwei, who has only come to Jining not long ago, has almost always lived in Zou Mansion and has never been out of the house.
She was a little surprised that Fu Chuoxian would choose this place for her birthday, because Judging from Fu Chuoxian's usual clothes, the Fu family was obviously very depressed.
Moreover, Fu Chuoxian had a brother and a nephew. If the family can survive, whoever wants to save face, who is willing to let the sisters come out and ask for life?
Xi Fuwei thought at first that Fu Chuoxian would take a little more money to come out, so please cook a few more dishes in the small kitchen of Fenzhilou.
But when I thought about it, I knew it in my heart, just not knowing, and after a while with a smile, I left.
After a while, Hongzhi sent Fu Chuoxian's list of guests and blank posts. As expected, there were several unfamiliar names besides Xi Fuwei, Yao Zhuosu, Yao's family, and the female relatives of Zou's house.
These names look like men, and 80% of them are the fruits of Fu Chuoxian's birthday banquet today.
It seems that although I was unlucky and met Xu Jingyuan, there was no loss.
After taking out a better set of Four Treasures of the Study and writing the invitation, let Lusha send it over, Xi Fuwei began to think about the current situation: at the Zou Mansion, although Mrs. Shang did not point out her relationship with Jin Yiwei, everyone It's also tacit.
Therefore, it seems impossible to secretly start with Zou Yi'ang and others, and extract the Zou family's secrets.
After all, the Zou Mansion has stood tall in Jining for so many years, it is not for nothing.
Then, if there is no progress in the Zou Mansion, of course, he will not be taken seriously in front of Shen Dilan.
Without this boss's attention, he may become a castaway at any time.
Even if I barely passed the level this time, I will not escape the fate of being abandoned next time I encounter something similar.
So she couldn't protect herself, taking care of Xi Jiao, avenging her father and brother and hating something, it was a joke.
Xi Fuwei couldn't help frowning, and said to her heart that this was a knotty knot.
Wen Xianyun became more resentful.
No, to be precise, I should resent Xu Jingyuan and Song Jianiang.
If it weren’t for these two suspicious Nings who killed them by mistake, they would fix themselves to death without any proof, and even bring Wen Xianyun to the Zou Mansion...How could Xi Fuwei expose this to the Zou family? Point?
But she couldn't help it with these three people.
When I think about it, things are unfair.
"Now the Zou Mansion seems to be peaceful, but in private it must have been focusing on me." She thought, "Don't talk about Zou Mansion's henchmen, Yao Zhuosu and others, you will definitely know that Xu Jingyuan and Song Jianiang don't like me in the future. Things. So either to alienate me, or to target and monitor me to please those two...It is tantamount to helping Zou Mansion deal with me. Zou Mansion does not want to offend Jin Yiwei. It should be said that Zou Mansion currently does not want to offend Jin Yiwei and dare not rush me. Going out, such hands and feet will definitely do it."
Her next days will be more difficult.
The future is even more uncertain.
How can I go on if I can't figure it out?
Xi Fuwei thought for a long time, and finally decided to wait for the old lady's birthday to be busy, and find a chance to have a good chat with Mrs. Shang.
If the conversation is good, it may be her chance.
If the conversation is not good... Then she really has to think about it, what will she do after Shen Pilan can't count on it?
She is worried here, and Xu Jingyuan and Song Jianiang who have just returned to the inn are also dejected.
Although Song Jianiang insisted on Xishiningren's proposal, she was not at all under Xu Jingyuan's sullenness at the moment.
After all, Xi Fuwei "seduce" her prospective fiance.
According to the original plan, this cheap servant of the Xi family should knelt down timidly and tremblingly begged for mercy as soon as he met each other.
Then, after being charged with a bunch of charges of unfilial piety, he was taken back by Wen Xianyun, and all kinds of discussions were to death.
But the fact is, Xi Fuwei is doing fine now.
She, Xu Jingyuan and Wen Xianyun, the three instigators, were all mad at them!
But in front of the people in Zou Mansion, they still have to keep smiling.
Really... so angry!
"Sister Jingyuan, should you settle down earlier?" Song Jianiang silently memorized the sage's articles three or four times in her heart, and then kept the surface calm, and said to Xu Jingyuan with concern, "I have to hurry tomorrow."
Song Li said that they can be allowed to stay in Jining, but after attending the birthday banquet of Mrs. Zhuang, they must leave immediately, and they are not allowed to delay for any reason!
Although Song Jianiang was very spoiled in front of her father, she was also afraid after her father became strict.
What's more, if everything goes well at the birthday banquet today, she might still want to stay to see Xi Fuwei's tragic ending; but today it's not going well at all, why would she stay? See Xi Fuwei with the support of Zou Mansion and Wen Xianyun in full swing? Even Sinking Lan took the initiative to protect his subordinates and comrades, and use Jin Yiwei's power to suppress Wen Jia?
So Song Jianiang is really wishing to leave early now, and don't look at this bad place and think of these bad people.
"I thought about it." Xu Jingyuan's face was sinking, playing with a golden hairpin that had just been pulled out, and suddenly raised his head, "A stubborn maid has made us so embarrassed today! Absolutely can't go! We need to get someone to leave. Only after packing up!"
Song Jianiang said in amazement: "But my father..."
"Your father is now in Dongchang Mansion. He has a heavy responsibility. Where can we take care of us?" Xu Jingyuan had not been accustomed to doing so, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with going back and forth. Just show your face and you can see the bad luck of that cheap maid. Now that we know that we have not taken advantage of it, and we are just angry, maybe it is not happy in my heart?"
He whispered again, "If he really wants us to go so much, he knows why we are down, he must help!"
If Song Li took the shot himself, he would definitely not be a little troublesome like the two of them. At that time, it would be strange if Xi Fuwei had a way to survive!
"But my dad will definitely be very angry!" Song Jianiang felt embarrassed when she heard her heartbeat. "When you see me, you will definitely scold me!"
Hearing this, Xu Jingyuan rolled his eyes, clapped his hands, and said, "No matter how hard you are, he is also your biological father. Even if he is harsher on weekdays, he never said that he doesn't care for you... Isn't this difficult to deal with?"
Song Jianiang hesitated for a moment, and nodded again and again.
