057 Uncle and nephew talk

Yu Manman and Xuanyuan Haoling stayed quietly for a while, seeing that it was not early, the two returned to the Dachen Palace. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Xuanyuan Haoling returned to his seat and toasted with Xuanyuan Haoyi, with a deep smile on his face.

Yu Xinxun and the soldier at the table next to him were already drunk, and Yu Manman was about to step forward to help Yu Xinxun, who was full of alcohol, and Xu Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, stepped forward.

Looking at Yu Manman, who was five points similar to the little sister in front of him, Xu Cheng said with some excitement:

"Little... Vines..."

Yu Manman turned around and saw a minister wearing a purple robe and a gold and jade belt around his waist.

He has a handsome and healthy appearance, thick black and neat eyebrows, and bright eyes, and is about forty years old.

Seeing his lips trembling and looking at him excitedly, Yu Manman couldn't help but wonder:

"I don't know who you are?"

Hearing this, Xu Cheng suppressed his excitement, glanced at Yu Xinxun, who was lying unconscious on the low table, and then said:

"Can you come and talk to me?"

Yu Manman looked around, but no one noticed this, so he nodded, and the two walked lightly outside the hall.

Xu Cheng looked at the niece in front of him, who was similar to the little sister, and said with mixed feelings:

"You should call me uncle, I am your mother's brother Xu Cheng"

Hearing this, Yu Manman realized that this was Xu Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the uncle of this body.

Retracting his thoughts, Yu Manman curtsied:

"It turned out to be Lord Shangshu, and the courtiers didn't know the identity of the adult, please forgive me."

"You... Don't you even want to call me uncle?" Xu Cheng's tone was gloomy.

"Since my mother broke off the relationship with the Xu family back then, the courtiers naturally have no position to call the adult uncle," Yu Manman said lightly.

"If it weren't for your mother's willfulness back then, she insisted on marrying Yu Xinxun, how could she ...... now" Thinking of the little sister with a thin face, Xu Cheng's eyes were red.

Seeing Xu Cheng's sad expression, it seems that he must have a very deep relationship with Xu Wei's brother and sister. But now that things are wrong, Yu Manman said lightly:

"My mother has been dead for more than ten years, the deceased is gone, the past is dust, Lord Shangshu doesn't have to feel too much"

Xu Cheng hid his grief, took a deep breath, and then said to Yu Manman:

"It's okay if you don't recognize me now, I just hope that you can go to the General's Mansion if you have time, your grandfather wants to see you......"

"General's Mansion?" Hearing this, Yu Manman frowned.

"Yes, your maternal grandfather was the general of Zhenguo, and the general's mansion was given by the emperor when he was alive."

"But why does the general want to see me?" Yu Manman was puzzled.

"Because your mother ......," Xu Cheng sighed.

"If I'm not mistaken, the General's Mansion and my mother have long since broken off their relationship, and we have nothing to do with the Xu Mansion."

"Alas, in the past ten years, since he broke off relations with your mother, your grandfather has regretted it, but he has refused to contact your mother for the sake of face"

"My mother is dead," Yu Manman said coldly.

"I know that after your mother died, your grandmother became seriously ill. All these years, I have been delirious and in a trance"

"But does it have anything to do with me?"

"Yes, your grandmother is not in good health now, and according to the Imperial Doctor, maybe... There may not be many days left......" Xu Cheng's voice choked.

"........." Yu Manman didn't know how to speak for a while.

Seeing that Yu Manman was still cold and indifferent, Xu Cheng said tentatively:

"Don't you want to meet them, after all, we are all your flesh and blood."

"If it's a relative, how can they ignore me for more than ten years?" Yu Manman said coldly.

Hearing this, Xu Cheng suddenly choked, and was silent for a moment before slowly speaking:

"Father is just too strong, and even if we go to the Taishou Mansion to see you, Yu Xinxun will not let us in."

"None of you have ever tried, so how do you know my dad won't let you in??"

"We ...... Or do you love face too much......"

"Hehe, face, for the sake of face, you can disown my mother, but ask us half a sentence?" Yu Manman sneered.

Xu Cheng was silent for a moment, and then said sincerely:

"Manman, no matter what, we are all relatives, I hope you can go back to Xufu to visit your grandmother"

“………”

Seeing that Yu Manman was silent, Xu Cheng continued:

"Your grandfather and grandmother never stopped thinking about your mother, and now your mother is gone, and so is your grandmother...... , I hope that no matter what, you can come to the General's Mansion to see her"

"Lord Shangshu, whether it is the General's Mansion or the Shangshu Mansion, it has nothing to do with the courtiers" Yu Manman's tone was resolute.

"Vine ........."

"It's getting late, the courtiers have to go back to the house with their father, and the courtiers will retire" After saying that, Yu Manman curtsied to Xu Cheng, and then turned to leave.

Xu Cheng looked at Yu Manman's departing back and stopped talking, and finally shook his head and sighed, and walked towards Xu Guifei's Hanlian Palace in the west.

After Yu Manman said goodbye to Xuanyuan Haoling and Xuanyuan Haoyi, who was already slightly drunk, he helped the unconscious Yu Xinxun back to Taishou Mansion.

At this time, the moon had already set, and the street was quiet only to hear the sound of the wheels of the carriage and the snoring of Yu Xinxun, who was sleeping in the carriage.

drove all the way to the gate of Taishou Mansion, and there were already two aunts Feng and her personal maid Cuizhu standing at the door.

Feng was dressed in a silver shackle, and even though he was already wearing a very thick coat, he was still shivering in the cold wind.

Seeing Yu Manman get out of the carriage he was riding, he hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to curtsy Yu Manman:

"Miss, you're back"

"Hmm"

Yu Manman nodded lightly, seeing that there was no one else around, he couldn't help frowning:

"Where have the others gone?"

Feng Shi glanced at the sky before he said:

"At this time, when it is approaching, Xu is already asleep"

"Well, that hard aunt is waiting here"

"The eldest lady is polite, this is what a concubine should do"

Seeing that Feng's attitude had always been humble and polite, Yu Manman said:

"Luoluo and I are sisters, and my aunt can call me by my name in the future, and I don't have to call the eldest lady and the eldest lady to give birth."

Hearing this, Feng's expression changed, and he hurriedly spoke:

"How can this make the concubine a concubine, how dare she call the eldest lady by her name?"

"It's okay, it's not in the way"

"Etiquette cannot be abolished, the identity of the eldest lady is the most noble in the mansion except for the master, and the concubine does not dare to be rude"

Seeing that Feng insisted on etiquette, Yu Manman's heart couldn't help but rise a trace of approval, so he stopped lingering on this topic, and said softly:

"That's it, it's all up to you, Daddy is already asleep, so my aunt will help him back to the yard first."

"Okay, Cuizhu come over and help" Feng nodded in agreement, and then turned to the maid Cuizhu behind him.

"Yes, Auntie"

The two helped Yu Xinxun down from the carriage, then nodded to Yu Manman, and were about to go back to his Pingyuan, when they saw the housekeeper and the Ye family running over in a panic.

Yu Manman looked at Ye Shi, who had a slightly messy bun and a ruddy face, and the butler beside him who was slightly untidy, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and disappeared in an instant.
