Chapter 413: Opportunity
Yang Shidao said lightly, and Jiang Chengzi was surprised when he heard it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info didn't dare to ask for a moment whether the old lady joined forces with his eldest son, or whether Yang Gongren set up a bureau so that the old lady would not be involved with the elders of the council.
So, she just stood in amazement.
Yang Shidao couldn't help but smile when he looked at the little girl who was praised as a demon.
Jiang Chengzi was embarrassed, lowered his head, and said: "Ah Zhi is young, it's okay to look at the part, but he always cares about one thing and loses the other when he looks at the overall situation, and he can't see clearly." Uncle Twelve, don't laugh at me. β
"Good, good, don't laugh. Yang Shidao replied with a smile.
"Uncle Twelve has to speak. Jiang Chengzi raised his eyes, looked at him with a pair of bright eyes, and his voice was crisp and soft, slightly coquettish.
Yang Shidao only admired in his heart that this girl was not an ordinary person, and he couldn't hate it when he raised his eyes, and he had an inexplicable temperament on his body.
"Uncle Twelve counts when he speaks. He promised her very seriously.
She said sweetly: "Uncle Twelve is so good. β
Yang Shidao smiled helplessly. Jiang Chengzi remembered what Yang Wang said to her before ringing the bell in the ancestral hall in the morning.
"Ah Zhi, today, the elders of the Yang family, they will come to the ancestral hall when they come out of each room. Today, we are not aggressive, but we want to hide needles in the cotton. And you, just think that you are an eleven-year-old girl. β
"I'm not even eleven years old. She understood what her mother meant, but mischievously raised the bar with her mother.
Yang Wang glanced at her and said, "It's almost thirteen years old, and you are still pretending to be tender." β
"Hehe, it was my mother who made her pretend to be tender. She smiled and turned around, and let Yang Wang help her sort out the waist seal.
"Don't be poor, make you softer, but don't make you stupid. You are famous, and you pretend to be too stupid, which always makes people feel fake and counterproductive. Yang Wang advised.
Mother rest assured that Ah Zhi's words and deeds will be softer, and everything will not be in the limelight. Andβ" She deliberately dragged out her words.
"How?" Yang Wang sorted out his daughter's waist seal, and combed a simple girl's hair bun for her, without a little headdress, only a wooden hairpin.
"I'll try to hide my sparkle. Jiang Chengzi said seriously.
"Not serious. Yang Wang's verbal criticism with a smile in his eyebrows shows that this criticism is really not a reflection of his heart.
"Haha, A-Niang, thank you for the compliment, I will try not to be proud. She grimaced with a grin, then opened the door with a serious face, and Shi Shiran went out.
Originally, she wanted to put away the light again at the elders' meeting, but she didn't expect that the person waiting early in this ancestral hall turned out to be Yang Shidao. Therefore, in the conversation and behavior with the twelfth uncle who met for the first time, Jiang Chengzi deliberately hid his aggressive sharp side.
A girl who is so smart that she is almost demonic, who speaks harshly and a girl who is smart and cute, will like the latter and unconsciously want to protect the latter.
A-Niang's truth, she understands.
"Ah Zhi. Yang Shidao looked at the girl in a daze in front of him and couldn't help shouting.
Jiang Chengzi was startled, lowered his eyes and whispered: "Twelfth uncle, forgive me, it's true that the assassin came to the sixth room last night, and he didn't dare to sleep all night, I, I'm a little sleepy." β
Her voice became softer and softer, and there was a sense of timidity.
Yang Shidao chuckled and said, "Ah Zhi, you don't have to be so restrained in front of the Twelfth Uncle. β
Jiang Chengzi shook his head and said crisply: "This can't work." My grandfather often said that our Yang children, regardless of men and women, must be well-mannered people. β
When Yang Shidao heard this, he was greatly moved. Since he can remember, the world is in chaos, the people in the family are intrigued, except for the teacher in the clan study, no one has said anything about the etiquette and unity.
Now the atmosphere of Yang's six rooms is really good.
"Azhi, you're right. It was Uncle Twelve who ignored it. Today, this is an ancestral hall after all, and you should observe the ceremony. Yang Shidao said.
"Ah Zhi, thank you Uncle Twelve. Jiang Chengzi bowed.
Yang Shidao waved her hand to excuse her, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly said: "Ah Zhi, you remember: no matter how powerful the Yang clan's internal fighting is, no one can do anything that is detrimental to the Yang clan's future. No one. β
Jiang Chengzi didn't understand what he was referring to, but he didn't want to ask specifically, so he had to pretend to understand and nodded vigorously.
Yang Shidao knew that she didn't understand, and he didn't plan to explain, so he only said, "I'll leave through the back door first, and I can't break the rules of the ancestors." β
"Congratulations to Uncle Twelve. Jiang Chengzi bowed.
Yang Shidao only nodded, and then under the escort of the guards, he quickly left through the side door behind the ancestral hall.
ββββββββββββββββββββ
In the outer courtyard outside the courtyard of the ancestral hall, the third room of the ancestral hall was the first, and then the second, fourth, fifth, ninth, and eighth rooms were all waiting quietly outside, without any conversation.
According to the rules of the ancestors, those who come to observe or participate in the trial are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall to meet with the person who rings the bell before everyone has arrived, so as not to give instructions in private and affect the fairness of the family trial.
"Madam, why haven't the elders and the old lady come yet?" the third old man couldn't sit still after all, and whispered to the third lady beside him.
"Don't talk too much, break the rules. The third lady reminded.
"I'll just say casually, all the rooms you see are waiting here, and they're all pretending to be dumb. The third master looked around. In Pingsuri, the brothers who can only be seen during the big sacrifice have come one after another, and this scene is really spectacular.
"If people want to come, they will naturally come, don't talk too much, isn't the trouble in the third room enough?"
The third master stopped talking, only holding a pot of water and drinking it, completely ignoring the Yang family's etiquette, which attracted the people in the other room to see, secretly snickering in his heart, and gloating in his heart: No matter how powerful the woman in the third room is, look at this man, tsk-, the woman in the third room is really hard.
The third lady lamented in her heart: It's really mud that can't support the wall. So far, I don't even know a thing or two about last night, and I can't see an idea of the current situation. Even if you come here, you are confused. It seems that the future of Sanfang, as well as today's choice, can only rely on themselves.
The third lady made her own little calculations, and each room also secretly planned its own interests. For a while, although the ancestral hall was so quiet that only the crisp birdsong remained, it was actually a dangerous undertide.
At this time, the old lady's sedan chair was stopped in the Lanqin Hall on the northwest side of the ancestral hall. It was none other than the two brothers Yang Shidao and Yang Gongren who stopped the old lady's sedan chair.
After the old lady heard the bell ring twelve times, she sent someone to see who was ringing the bell and what was happening.
But none of the people who had been sent out returned. She was anxious, but she still patiently bathed and changed clothes, wiped her crutches clean, and then got into the sedan chair and ordered: "Go to the ancestral hall and have a look." β
The group carried the old lady to the ancestral hall, and just arrived at the Lanqin Hall in the northwest corner of the ancestral hall, there was a guard to stop the sedan chair, and said loudly: "Old lady, please stop the sedan chair." β
Zi Yan shouted: "Bold, who are you to dare to call the old lady to stop the sedan chair." β
The nursing home was neither humble nor arrogant, nor did he pay attention to Zi Yan, but only arched his hand to the old lady and said, "Old lady, it is the eldest master who has come to visit." β
When the old lady heard this, she slowly opened the curtain and saw Yang Gongren standing respectfully in front of the sedan chair. I haven't seen him for more than half a year, but this kid is a lot more energetic.
"Meet Mother. Yang Gongren arched his hand.
"Do you still have my mother in your eyes?" the old lady snorted coldly.
Yang Gongren smiled, walked to the door of the sedan chair, helped her, and said: "Mother is a person who understands righteousness, and she doesn't care about the fact that her son didn't visit his mother at the first time. β
"I'll take care of it. The old lady had a hard mouth, but she couldn't get angry in her heart. She probably knows a lot about what happened last night. Although she doesn't like Yang Minzhi either, if she wants to get rid of Yang Minzhi in the Yang family, she is not so mad that she wants the Yang family to accompany Yang Minzhi to the funeral. Therefore, she knew that her eldest son must be busy with deployment.
"Mother, it's Ah Ren who is not good, and after this crisis is over, my mother will punish me again. Yang Gongren said.
The old lady sighed and said, "That's it, what to blame." What those people are up to, they think I don't know. Don't say that you asked me to pretend to be sick and not go, even if you don't call me, I won't go. β
The mother can understand her son's hard work, and the son is very grateful. Yang Gongren said.
The old lady waved her hand and said, "You arranged to ring the bell, right?"
"Nope. It was the bell that the nine girls rang herself. Yang Gongren said.
The old lady frowned, glanced at him suspiciously, and asked in a low voice, "You didn't interfere?"
"Ahem, mother, this is a matter of the sixth room, and we are just pushing the boat along the river. Yang Gongren said half of what he said.
The old lady immediately understood, just smiled and asked, "You are stopping my sedan chair here, do you have anything else?"
"The most important thing is, of course, to ask my mother for sin, and secondly, to surprise my mother. Yang Gongren said with a smile.
"Surprise?" the old lady looked at Yang Gongren suspiciously.
Yang Gongren raised his voice slightly and shouted, "Come out." β
The door of Lanqin Hall squeaked open, and a person walked out of it. Wearing a dark round-necked robe, a light green orchid is embroidered on the chest, and the beige fine orchid is a small orchid, which can be seen that the embroidery is excellent, and the silk threads are all of the highest quality. The hair on the head is tied up and trimmed meticulously.
"The child visits his mother. The man entered, and immediately knelt down and saluted the old lady.
The old lady rubbed her eyes, looked at them carefully, and then said, "This is not a dream." It's really my son back. β
"Mother, it's me. Yang Shidao bowed again. Since he entered the official career, and then he was connected with the princess, due to various systems, he really hasn't returned to the ancestral house for many years, and maybe he hasn't seen his mother for many years.
"My son, when did you come back?" The old lady hurriedly threw the crutches to the maid next to her and helped Yang Shidao up.
"When I go back to my mother, the child comes back with my eldest brother. Yang Shidao said.
The old lady smiled and said, "You, you have learned badly with your eldest brother." β
Yang Shidao smiled like when he was a child, and said, "Mother, the child also misses you very much, but the situation is critical, and the child has to deal with things with the eldest brother first." β
"Are you coming back alone?" asked the old lady. In fact, she would like to see the grandchildren on her younger son's side, and I heard that they are all smart and clever. Because the Yang family was involved in the old aristocratic alliance, Li Shimin once directly told Princess Guiyang that he should not run around and learn badly.
Princess Guiyang was a smart person, and she understood what the emperor meant at that time, and forbade the children to associate with the Yang family.
Yang Shidao can't blame his wife, after all, this is the way to survive. Therefore, the old lady had only heard about those grandchildren, but had never seen them.
"This is a big event, and I also took leave to the emperor. Besides, there is a lot of danger here, and I can't bring Ah Xiu and the children to see my mother at this time. Yang Shidao said.
The old lady nodded and said, "Yes." β
"Mother. Presumably you know the ins and outs of last night's incident, right?" Master Yang said.
"I know a rough idea. Hmph, those old horsemen are too rampant. The old lady said hatefully.
"Mother, do you know why they are doing this?"
The old lady glanced at him and asked, "Are you here to test me?"
"The child doesn't dare. Yang Shidao hurriedly bent down to make amends.
"You don't have to test me. Between mother and son, there is no temptation. The old lady knew that her youngest son was probing her tone.
Yang Shidao's heart warmed, and then he was ashamed, and said to the old lady: "Mother, it is the heart of a son's villain. β
The old lady didn't blame him, and said directly: "You have less time with me, and you don't know what kind of person your mother is, it's normal." Today, you don't have to be tempted, just tell you for your mother. Famous Alliance, after the past few years in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties, I have really seen through it, selfish, pulling each other's backs, and short-sighted. This time, I want to use the interests of the famous family to trap my Yang family in danger. They think that if I don't deal with Ah Yue's mother, the Wang family, and that I have irreconcilable contradictions with Liufang, they can control me?"
When the old lady said this, she couldn't help sneering twice, and continued: "I don't like the Wang family to be true, I don't like the six rooms including the nine girls to be true, even if the nine girls are hunted down, it is also true." However, they all forgot that I am also the head of the Yang family, and my husband's surname is Yang. At all times, of course, it is the interests of the Yang family that come first. β
"The mother understands the righteousness, and the son feels the truth. Yang Shidao and Yang Gongren spoke in unison.
The old lady looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "I have two good sons of you, and this life is not in vain." As for the juniors, the children in the sixth room are talented. Further down, if Hong'er gets better, she is a good child. Let's go. Don't delay here. β
"Yes. Yang Gongren and Yang Shidao spoke in unison, and helped the old lady to get into the sedan chair together.
The old lady went to the ancestral hall smoothly in a sedan chair, and Yang Gongren said to Yang Shidao: "Twelfth brother, please go to the ancestral hall now and protect your mother." β
"Yes. Yang Shidao arched his hand, quickly followed the old lady's sedan chair, and entered the gate of the ancestral hall.
Yang Gongren said to the guards beside him: "Go and welcome Zhang Sizhi to the ancestral hall." β
"Yes. The guard stepped aside.
Yang Gongren stood under the jujube tree outside the door of Lanqin Hall, bathing in the fine sunlight sprinkled from the sky, and suddenly felt that this time might be the best opportunity for the Yang family. The future of the Hongnong Yang family, a thousand-year-old family, is gradually brightening. (To be continued.) )
