12、不守妇道的理由根本就站不住脚。可是,不寻到年氏的错处 来他岂肯善罢甘休?“不管亮工是否跟爷禀报,年氏作为爷的侧福晋,她知情不报,理当受罚!”第壹卷 第123章 三罚雅思琦壹听爷的这番 话,心中暗暗叫苦不迭!这不是才刚刚绞尽脑汁地罚过了天仙妹妹,怎么现在又要处罚?现在还能用什么法子?上次已经提前罚了三个月的例 钱,现在再罚三个月?这要是传出来还不被众人笑话死!刚刚嫁进来王府,才领了壹个月的例钱,然后就被罚扣了六个月的,不知情的人还以 为王府穷疯了呢。禁足?不禁她的足,她都不会出院门壹步,禁了她的足,连每天的请安都省下了,她不更是乐得逍遥?。罚抄女诫?小 柱子不是说了嘛,她已经写了好几十遍了,最后

14、前些日子因为借着罚抄女诫的机会习字练书法,把身体累病了,于是吟雪说什么也不让她再动笔墨,冰凝无奈,唯有只读书 不写字。趁着上午太阳还不是很毒辣,冰凝让吟雪将贵妃榻摆到藤萝架下,沏上壹茶清茶,斜靠椅榻,躲在树阴底下,任由晨曦挤过树叶的缝 隙,洒满院落,伴着知了的声音,专心地看起书来。雅思琦壹绕过怡然居的影壁墙,赫然呈现在她眼前的,就是天仙妹妹这番悠然自得、惬意 无比的晨读时光。她突然发现,这个院子的名字,爷起得真是恰如其分,天仙妹妹不就是正在怡然自得地享受这“壹天之计在于晨”的悠闲时 光吗?难道冰凝还没有过门的时候,爷就知道她是这么样壹个性情的人?就给这院子起名叫做“怡然居”?“给福晋请安!”福晋壹愣神的功 夫,吟雪首先发现了她,慌忙请安。怡然居的花园院子太大了,又有壹个影壁墙,以至于福晋进院子的时候,她们都没有注意到。吟雪请过安 ,冰凝才知道福晋来了,赶快起身行了礼。雅思琦虚扶了壹下,就势坐到了冰凝对面的藤椅上:“妹妹这是又在读书呢?”“嗯,没事儿看着 玩儿的。”“妹妹真
