Chapter Twenty-Six: Marrying a Daughter, Now Without a King, the Right Army 4
Can't let the people of Dongxia smell the slightest clue!
Wei Wan was anxious in her heart, but she also secretly held back, just waiting for Dongfang Yi to come back, think of a foolproof plan, and see her brother.
Dongfang Yi came back in the evening, and before he entered the hospital, he saw his wife standing in front of the door looking at him, with a bright little face, both excited and expectant.
His wife was looking forward to his return, and it was a great feeling.
Dongfang Yi stretched out his big hand and gently brushed Wei Wan's face, and laughed in a low voice: "Let's go, let's go in the house." ”
As soon as she entered the house and sent the girls away, Wei Wan hurriedly asked, "Can you see my brother?" Is my brother okay? ”
Dongfang Yi smiled, took his wife and sat down and said, "I haven't seen him yet...... Tomorrow is the Shangsi Festival, it just so happens that I am resting, let's go to the suburbs. ”
Wei Wan was stunned, I didn't want to see my brother, why did I want to play?
Looking at Dongfang Yi's smiling face, his heart suddenly moved, and he said in a low voice: "Brother is also going on an outing that day?" ”
Dongfang Yi's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles: "You're smart." I asked the crow to secretly deliver a letter to Lao Jie and asked him to arrange it. I don't know if I can come out. Even if you can't get out for the time being, you will have a chance in the future. Emperor Taishang's illness has worsened, but I am afraid that in the near future, the Holy Lord will not have time to meet with the envoys. The envoy is afraid that he will have to stay in the capital for a little longer. ”
Wei Wan clasped her hands in front of her chest and murmured, "I wish my brother would get rid of the messenger who came with him." ”
Dongfang Yi reached out and rubbed his wife's hair, and said with a low smile: "Even if the messenger follows ...... Won't we find a way to break him off? As he spoke, he wrapped his arms around his wife's waist. The two walked out of the door together to greet Mrs. Li.
When I arrived at Cuiwei Hall, Mrs. Li's residence, I saw Zhu Huan and Dongfang Wei standing under the corridor. Wei Wan knew that someone must be talking about something in Mrs. Li's room, so the husband and wife avoided under the porch.
Dongfang Yi and Weihuan smiled and saluted their brother and sister-in-law. Zhu Huan smiled faintly and said in a low voice: "Mother is talking to Biyun, have you heard that the Jiang family, the prince of Zhenguo, is going to propose to Biyun's sister on behalf of the prince?" ”
Wei Wan was surprised and said: "But Jiang Shuo Jiang Gongzi? ”
Zhu Huan smiled: "Isn't it him!" That Jiang Gongzi is like the second brother, he did his best in the early years, and he didn't make a family appointment. As soon as Sister Biyun withdrew, they went to work, as if they were waiting for Sister Biyun. If this marriage is consummated. The Jiang family is very close. Think about it, Biyun's dowry is only 100,000 taels of silver, which is better than my dowry. than the dowry of the younger siblings ......" Speaking of which. It's like a gaffe. He patted his face lightly and said, "Look at my mouth, there is no one to guard the door." Younger siblings should never be too careful. ”
Weiwan knew that she did it on purpose, but she was just laughing at her for having a small dowry. The verbal argument is just a verbal pleasure, but Wan has never done it, nor does she disdain to do it, but just laughs it off.
Zhu Huan originally wanted to stab Weihuan, but it can be seen that Weihuan's expression is flat, and she smiles, not pretending to be calm, but really not caring, she is like a punch on cotton, and there is nowhere to send it, and she is even more annoyed.
And Dongfang Yi saw that Dongfang Yi was just a nod, but he didn't say a word.
Suddenly there was a low angry shout from Mrs. Li's room: "...... You don't want to marry such a family, what kind of family do you want to marry! Don't forget that you've been divorced! When the emperor dies and you can't get married during the national funeral, you will have to cry at that time! It was Mrs. Lai's voice.
Biyun replied in a low voice, unable to make out what it was, and then unable to hear what was said.
Wei Wan couldn't help but secretly wonder that Biyun's divorce was completely Wei Jiu's fault. Now everyone in the world already knows that Wei Jiu has committed a crime, otherwise it can't be equivalent to being assigned to guard the mausoleum, what is the reason why Mrs. Li said this?
After a while, Zizhi, the eldest girl in Mrs. Li's room, opened the curtain and asked the people waiting under the corridor: "Madame, please invite the prince, uncle, eldest lady, and second lady to come in." ”
Dongfang Wei and Zhu Huan walked in front, and Dongfang Yi helped Weihuan to follow behind.
Biyun stood up and saluted the two brothers and sisters-in-law. Wei Wan saw that her expression was flat, and she didn't seem to be affected by Mrs. Lai.
Mrs. Li was also full of spring breeze, and she couldn't see at all that the angry words just now came from her.
Everyone accompanied Mrs. Li to talk, and Mrs. Li asked her sons to step down: "...... Go down first, and stay with the daughters-in-law, I have something to say. Biyun, you go down too! ”
The three Dongfang brothers and sisters retired.
As soon as her son and daughter left, Mrs. Li's face sank, and her eyes stared at Weihuan with a cold chill.
Wei Wan secretly thought about it, and felt that she hadn't done anything wrong, let alone offended Mrs. Li, so she didn't take it to heart at all, and stood aside calmly and with a smile, as if nothing happened.
Zhu Huan was so frightened that he stood aside with his eyebrows lowered and didn't dare to move.
Mrs. Li wanted to deter Wei Huan, but when she saw Wei Wan's calm demeanor, she was obviously deliberately angry with her, so she slapped the table heavily, pointed a finger at Wei Wan's face, and shouted: "You kneel down for me!" ”
Weiwan smiled and said: "Mother is angry, she has something to say, she has something to say, it's not good to be angry." The tone was gentle and kind, and his expression was docile and peaceful, but he did not kneel.
Mrs. Li trembled with anger, trembling her lips and said, "You little slut did a good thing!" ”
Wei Wan originally wanted to no matter why Mrs. Li was angry with her, she would admit her mistake first, who wanted Mrs. Li to scold her for being a little slut, she couldn't help but be angry, and then laughed: "Mother is angry, daughter-in-law is the mother's daughter-in-law, the flesh and blood of the family, if the daughter-in-law is a slut, then there is no nobleman in this mansion." The mother scolded her daughter-in-law for being defenseless, but don't even scold herself. ”
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Li was so angry that she only glared at Wei Huan, but she couldn't speak.
Zhu Huan hurriedly stepped forward to wipe his chest and stroke his back, and persuaded in his mouth: "Mother, don't be angry." The younger brother and sister are the first rank of the saint, and the mother's grade is the same, she is young and ignorant, and the second brother is a big celebrity in the saint, and the mother is in the face of the second brother, and she must not care about the younger siblings. ”
It's good that she didn't persuade her, but this persuasion, Mrs. Li was even more angry and her face was red, and she shouted one after another: "Take the family law!" Get this little slut on your knees! Today, I want to teach this daughter-in-law who doesn't know filial piety to know some rules! ”
Two mothers-in-law stepped forward and grabbed Weihuan's arms and wanted to kneel down according to Weihuan.
Suddenly, Biyun broke in. shouted: "Stop, the second lady is pregnant, if she has a good one, your cheap death ten times will not be enough to compensate." ”
The two mothers-in-law didn't dare to move anymore, and only looked at Mrs. Li.
Biyun knelt down and said: "Mother, there is nothing wrong with the second sister-in-law, even if there is a mistake, the second sister-in-law is pregnant now, and I hope that my mother will understand." ”
Mrs. Li was stunned, she was confused. I forgot about it.
Zhu Huan also said on the side: "That's it." Although it doesn't matter if you have a body to kneel, but your younger siblings are delicate, and your mother still doesn't let your younger siblings kneel. ”
Mrs. Li felt that if she was allowed to kneel, she would be a pregnant person. It's not good if something happens. But the words have already been spoken. didn't let her kneel, it seemed that she was afraid of Weiwan, and she was panting in anger for a while.
But she can't suppress the anger in her heart. said softly: "If the daughter-in-law is wrong, she is willing to be punished, if there is no mistake, and she is still confused and punished, won't she trap her mother in unkindness?" The daughter-in-law did not dare to be punished without knowing anything, and hoped that her mother would say it clearly. ”
Mrs. Li sneered: "What kind of good person are you pretending! You are the best at making bad things behind your back, but pretending to be a good person in front of you! Let me ask you, what good do you do for instigating your sister-in-law to ruin her reputation? Is it because your reputation is bad, you can't look down on others? ”
Wei Wan was about to ridicule each other, but in a blink of an eye, she saw Biyun begging at her, and she couldn't say this sarcastic word, but she couldn't admit it against her will, so she only said lightly: "Mother, where did you start with this?" What did Biyun do to make her mother say this about her? ”
Mrs. Li's anger was a little pretending, but after listening to Wei Huan's words, she was really angry, and she was so angry that she was short of breath, and pointed at Wei Wan and said, "You are still pretending?" My daughter was fine, but she hasn't listened to me since she's been hanging out with you all day. Today, he actually said such a rebellious thing as wanting to find a husband by himself! You say, if it wasn't for your instigation, how dare she learn from you! ”
Biyun was ashamed and anxious, couldn't stop crying, and choked up: "Mother, it has nothing to do with the second sister-in-law......
Mrs. Li shouted: "Shut up! Come, please go back to her room, you are not allowed to come out without my order. ”
The two mothers-in-law came up boldly, and dragged Biyun to leave, Biyun struggled hard, the two mothers-in-law were strong after all, covered Biyun's mouth, and dragged Biyun away.
Mrs. Li calmed down at this time and sneered: "Okay! You, the countess, have a way, first instigating Yi'er to disobey me, and now Biyun. Tell me, what method did you use to confuse them, make them listen to you, and teach me, lest my wife and son end up being unfilial and disrespectful! ”
Weiwan's first thought was: The best way for such an unreasonable person is to watch her toss as if she were watching a play, without worrying about it at all...... Thinking about it like this, the qi in my heart suddenly disappeared.
What is there to worry about with the unworthy.
But after all, she is Dongfang Yi's mother, so she has to talk about it. Wei Wan gave a salute unhurriedly and said, "Mother is well-informed, how old is her daughter-in-law?" Do you know a few truths? How can there be so much prestige for the sister-in-law to listen to her daughter-in-law? The mother must have heard of the saying that marrying a daughter is not Wanggao, a woman's wish is appropriate, and righteousness is a husband, and there is no righteousness to return to others. My sister-in-law has parents and an eldest brother and sister-in-law, and her marriage is not in charge of her daughter-in-law, but the daughter-in-law also hopes that her sister-in-law is good, why doesn't her mother ask her sister-in-law who she wants to marry? ”
With a wave of her hand, Mrs. Li waved the teacup to the ground, and said angrily: "You still say that it wasn't instigated by you?" Since ancient times, the order of her parents, the words of the matchmaker, where can she be the master? Do you think that the Guogong Mansion is as ignorant of the rules as your Houfu, and let you mess around? ”
Wei Wan knew that she couldn't tell this person, so she stopped talking nonsense, and gave a salute: "Mother's words are all right." Since the mother is angry with her daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law will retire, so as not to be angry with your old man. ”
Mrs. Li said angrily: "There are more and more rules! You give me ......"
Before he finished speaking, the curtain was lifted, and Dongfang Xuan, the Duke of Dingguo, who was wearing a crow blue homely straight jacket, was thin and had a majestic expression, walked in.
Mrs. Li hurriedly got up to greet her, but Wei Wan and Zhu Huan were busy saluting.
Dongfang Xuan nodded and said, "Stand down, I have something to say to your mother." ”
Wei Wan and Zhu Huan retreated.
Zhu Huan secretly glanced at Wei Huan. I secretly thought that someone must have invited my father-in-law, the god, to come out, so that I could protect this goblin.
Weiwan took Pan Zi's hand and walked out of Mrs. Li's yard. I saw Dongfang Yi standing under a red peach blossom with his hands behind his back, looking at this side worriedly, and when he saw Wei Huan, he burst into a big smile and stretched out his hand to her. "Mother has wronged you again?"
Seeing Dongfang Yi, the unhappiness that Wei Wan didn't have much in the first place also disappeared, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, you invited it?" ”
Dongfang Yi pulled Weiwan and said with a smile as he walked: "Of course it's your husband and me." My father was fair. He smiled again, and blamed himself. Mother's character...... I hope you will bear more. ”
Is there anything more comforting than a husband who knows her grievances, understands her difficulties, and loves her? But she felt that the grievance was nothing at all. After snuggling her husband slowly walked to her house, she only felt that her heart was light and full of happiness.
As soon as the daughters-in-law left, Mrs. Li sat down with Dongfang Xuan, and served tea herself, thinking about how to tell Dongfang Xuan about her daughter's disobedience at the instigation of her second daughter-in-law. Before he could figure it out, Dongfang Xuan said in a low voice: "I'm afraid the Emperor Taishang won't be able to survive." As soon as the Emperor Taishang left, the Holy Lord was only afraid that he would have to reshuffle the situation between the DPRK and China. ”
Mrs. Li immediately threw away the idea of punishing her daughter-in-law, and said worriedly: "Grandpa is saying that there will be changes in the court?" ”
Dongfang Xuan's micro-jaw. "Today's saint is young, and he is a military general, and his actions are inevitably radical and strong, if it weren't for the pressure of the emperor, I am afraid that the power of the DPRK and China would have been rectified long ago."
Mrs. Li hesitated: "Grandpa is talking about ......"
Dongfang Xuan took a sip of tea and said slowly: "The greater the power of the Dongfang family, the more weight it will occupy in the heart of the saint, and in the long run, it is better to keep a low profile in the Guogong Mansion." ”
As soon as Mrs. Li heard this, she understood. The Dongfang family is already powerful enough, and if it marries the Jiang family, the prince of Zhenguo, it will be another powerful force in the power group, but I am afraid that it will attract more taboos from the saints...... It seems that the family affair with the Jiang family is not done.
But letting her only daughter marry a family whose family is not as powerful as the Guogong Mansion, Mrs. Li is a little unwilling in her heart. (To be continued.) )
