538 Chinese New Year

Lu Chengen, the son of Lu Yanghou, was in a coma for half a month, but he didn't survive and died. Mrs. Lu Yanghou did not allow Yue Bing to interfere in Lu Chengen's funeral, and also pointed at Yue Bing and scolded, and the meaning of her words showed that Lu Chengen was killed by Yue Bing. Mrs. Lu couldn't help but be angry, the death of her eldest grandson was tantamount to digging out her heart and liver. And Lu Chengen died, and since then, Luyang Houfu has really become this woman's world.

Yue Bing didn't argue, knelt in front of Mrs. Lu Yanghou at the moment, and said word by word: "Since my mother-in-law believes that I am the son of the world, please come up with evidence." If there is really evidence to prove that I harmed the prince, I will ask myself to leave the court. "After enduring it for so many years, Yue Bing can't bear it anymore.

After Xiang Wei came back, she told Yueyao about it: "I used to think that Lian Yuebing was an angry little daughter-in-law, but I didn't expect that if I didn't make a move, I would be scared to death, and I actually asked myself to go to court?" It's not bad!" Now this matter is rumors outside.

Yue Yao frowned and said, "Whether it is Yue Bing's hand or not, how could this old lady Luyang Hou say such a thing?" If Yue Bing doesn't resist and confirms this crime, the children will have to be implicated. "I didn't let my daughter-in-law take care of the funeral of my eldest grandson, and she didn't even let her enter the mourning hall, this old lady Luyanghou is really getting older and more confused.

Xiang Wei said with a smile. "Old Lady Luyang Hou is notoriously difficult in the imperial capital, and it is not surprising that even Yuebing has this day." At that time, it was rumored that Lu Yanghou's original match was forced to death by Mrs. Lu Yanghou, but Lian Dongfang and Mo still married Lian Yuebing to Lu Yanghou, so Lian Yuebing blamed herself for having such a pair of parents.

Yue Yao sighed slightly: "Forget it, don't talk about it, this is about to be the New Year, and there are many things, you can help me do it." ”

Xiang Wei looked disgusted: "I'm busy, I don't have time to help you deal with those trivial things." "She hates dealing with all the mess in the mansion the most.

Yueyao smiled, and didn't force Xiang Wei to do what she didn't like to do.

The struggle between Yue Bing and the old lady of Lu Yang Hou was won by Yue Bing, and in the end, the funeral of Lu Chengen, the son of Lu Yang Hou, was handled by Yue Bing.

Yue Bing has been in charge of the Hou Mansion for so many years, and he naturally has a set of actions, plus Lu Chengen has no relatives and no heirs, so the funeral is relatively simple.

Yue Bing took off the white hosta on her bun and looked at herself in the mirror in a daze, she was only less than thirty, but there were several wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.

Cui's mother asked cautiously, "Madam, what's wrong with you?"

Yue Bing carefully put the white hosta in the jewelry box and said softly: "I just feel that time flies so fast, and I am already old in the blink of an eye." "A tricky mother-in-law, a husband who doesn't follow her, two children left by the original partner who are very protective of herself, now that the eldest son is gone, she should be happy, but Yue Bing finds that she can't be happy no matter what.

Cui's mother felt sour in her heart and whispered, "Where is Madame old?" It still looks so young and beautiful. "Actually, Cui's mother knows what Yue Bing said, she is tired and tired. It's just that the wives of big families don't all come over like this!

Yue Bing lowered her hair, her hair was black and shiny, and asked, "Mom, what do you think would be like now if I resisted back then and didn't agree to this marriage?"

Cui's mother choked in her heart, no wonder Mrs. is so uncomfortable now, Master Hou is a cold-hearted and cold-hearted person, everything is based on interests, if it weren't for Mrs. Niang's support, this time it is estimated that she would have been forced to death by the old lady, and hurriedly persuaded: "Madam, you have to think about the eldest girl and the second young master and the third young master, for them, Mrs. should also cheer up." ”

Yue Bing smiled: "Yes, for the sake of the child, I also have to be good." "If she has three longs and two shorts, her husband will definitely have to marry again, what will happen to her three children then? For the sake of the child, she also has to live well.

In a blink of an eye, it was the end of the month.

The chief housekeeper sent An Zhichen's letter to Yueyao in a hurry: "Madam, the master's letter." "An Zhichen used to write a letter home every two or three months, but since the war started last year, it is difficult to receive letters from home.

Yueyao is okay, the eyes of the three brothers Kexin and Brother Sheng are shining, Yueyao took the letter with a smile, and said after reading it: "Your father said in the letter that he will be able to go home in May or June next year, and you will be able to see him then." ”

Brother Xu was the first to speak: "Mother, is this true?" Is Daddy coming back soon?"

Yue Yao handed the letter to them: "This is still fake, this is a letter written by your father himself." Yueyao was also a little apprehensive at first, worried that An Zhichen would have to continue to stay in the northwest, but now that she is okay, she finally has no such worries.

Brother Xu cheered, compared to Brother Sheng and Brother Fei, they were much more stable, although the two were very happy, they did not lose their temper.

This year, although An Zhichen did not go home, he was extremely happy because of his expectations.

After the New Year, from the second year of junior high school, Yue Yao went to Lian's house in the morning and Ma's house in the afternoon.

Zhuang Ruolan told Yue Yao about the marriage of several children, although Ke Yue's wedding date has not been decided, but at the latest at the end of the year, what should be considered is the marriage of Yanqi and Congpei.

Yueyao has a good relationship with Zhuang Ruolan, and she doesn't have too many worries when she speaks: "Yanqi's marriage is up to you and your cousin, but Cong Pei's marriage still needs to be considered, although Cong Pei has a lot of property in his name, he is now just a showman." "I have no father or mother, and I am just another name for Xiucai, and I can't say anything about my family.

Zhuang Ruolan smiled bitterly: "This is what the master meant, the master also said that when he gets married, he will let him be separated, and it is useless for me to persuade him twice." "Just let Cong Pei out, there will definitely be gossip at that time, and most importantly, how could my father-in-law agree.

Yue Yao thought for a while and said: "Cousin-in-law, don't think too much, you don't know your cousin's temperament, how can he do such a tricky thing, I think he will definitely arrange this matter properly." "Ma Peng wants to go on a career path, and it is impossible to give people a handle.

Zhuang Ruolan smiled bitterly: "I won't tell you, I'm not afraid of gossip outside, I'm afraid that my father-in-law will be angry when the time comes." Because Congpei has no father and no mother, Ma Chengteng will inevitably love her more, and she is afraid that the people she picks for Congpei will not be in line with Ma Chengteng's wishes.

Yue Yao felt that things in this world were not perfect: "I'm also worried, after the New Year, Kexin will be nine years old, Brother Sheng'er and they will be eight years old, and they will say goodbye in another three or five years, I am worried when I think about it." ”

Zhuang Ruolan was happy: "As for Kexin's character and appearance, when the time comes, the person who comes to say goodbye will step on the threshold of your family, and as for Brother Sheng'er, the three brothers don't have to worry, as long as the child is promising, I'm afraid that I won't be able to find a good girl?" Zhuang Ruolan wanted Kexin to be her daughter-in-law, but now that the Ma family is weak, An Zhichen is rising again, Zhuang Ruolan feels that this is slow in advance.

Yue Yao smiled: "I hope so." ”

In the past, Yueyao could push the wine banquets of various families, but she really couldn't push them to go, but this year Yueyao broke this convention, and the wine banquets of relatives and friends all went, such as the wine banquet hosted by Wanhe County and the wine banquet held by the Marquis of Weiyuan, etc., Yueyao went.

Xiang Wei was a little puzzled and asked, "Have you changed your personality recently?"

Yue Yao smiled: "Kexin is still young, she can't be locked up at home all the time, I'm worried that I will suffocate that child if I keep it locked up for a long time." "Kexin is much more lively now than before, but it's better to get along with her peers more children.

Xiang Wei smiled: "I said! How can you go to other people's houses every day to be a guest, it turns out that this is the case, speaking of which, it is really not easy for you to be a mother. Xiang Wei used to think that Kexin was well-behaved and sensible, but now that she looks at Kexin, who is becoming more and more cheerful, she feels that Kexin is more real now, and the previous Kexin is like a template.

Yue Yao walked around with Ke Xin's relatives, which really made many people start to worry about Ke Xin, no, Yin's sister-in-law Cheng Bo Shizi took a fancy to Ke Xin, and wanted to ask the Yin family to come forward and tell Ke Xin to her eldest son.

The Yin family directly refused, and Mrs. Bo Shizi went back with an unhappy face.

Yin's henchmen felt that they should be tactful.

The corner of Yin's mouth showed this sneer: "How can you turn around?" If she had been in her right mind, she wouldn't have thought about it. "In addition to taking the title of the eldest son, her nephew can't study and practice martial arts, how can the Lian family be able to look at it like this?

Yin's henchman whispered: "You can refuse this matter, but you have to think of a good way to do that." "Another thing that the mother-in-law said is that Mrs. Cheng Cheng wants to tell the eldest daughter of the second room to the prince of Weiyuan Hou, that is, the only son of the Yin family.

Yin Shi smiled: "The other thing is simpler, just say that Hou Ye doesn't agree." "Her brothers eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, none of her nephews work hard, and several nieces are also fighting like black-eyed, her mother's family has something, and she needs to help her within her ability, but she can't get the idea of beating her son, even if it's her own mother.

Yueyao heard that Lin Qinghan had brought Wanting and her new brother over, and said with a faint face: "Please let them in!"

Yueyao had heard Xiang Wei say that Wanting was five points similar to Tingzheng, because Yueyao had a rough idea of Wanting's appearance in her heart, but when she saw Wanting, she saw that Wanting was thin and pale, and she coughed as soon as she entered the small living room.

Yue Yao frowned and said to Lin Qinghan, "Since the child is sick, don't bring it here." "Yue Yao didn't hear Xiang Wei talk about this child's situation before, but now it is clear that this child has deficiencies.

Wanting heard Yueyao's words showing displeasure, and her face was timid.

Lin Qinghan didn't want to bring it in her heart, but her mother has been talking in her ear for the past few months, and now it is the time to visit relatives during the New Year, if she doesn't bring it, won't she have to gossip again: "The weather happens to be good today, and the doctor also said that the child should move around more." ”

Seeing this, Yueyao's heart became more and more uncomfortable, this timid appearance It seems that she can eat people, is she so terrible? However, Yueyao will not be unable to get along with a five-year-old child, Yueyao gave a thick red, and then smiled and said to the new brother's nurse: "Come, bring the new brother over and show me." ”

Yue Yao hugged her new brother, her appearance was not very similar to Ting Zheng, but her eyes were dark and slippery, and she was not afraid to be held in her arms by Yue Yao, but she grinned and called her aunt.

Yue Yao was so happy that she kissed her new brother on the face: "It's so good." "Such a well-behaved and lovely child, Xiang Wei actually said that this child was stupid, and she didn't know what Xiang Wei looked at.

Lin Qinghan saw that Yue Yao liked the new brother so much, but she ignored Wanting, and a cluster of flames rose in her heart, but fortunately, with Mrs. Lin's warning, Lin Qinghan could control her emotions.

Yueyao naturally saw Lin Qinghan's demeanor, and then looked at the new brother, and didn't say anything on her face, but in her heart she felt that Lin Qinghan didn't know how to teach children at all, if the new brother really let her teach, I was afraid that she would have to teach it to be useless.

After the Lantern Festival, Yue Yao was preparing for the art exhibition, Yue Yao set the time of the art exhibition at the end of May, and because of the abundant time, Yue Yao had enough time to prepare.

When Yue Yao came out of the studio, she saw Xiang Wei's face was not good, and Yue Yao asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" Who's mad at you?"

Xiang Wei sat on the chair, drank a cup of tea, and said, "Lian Dongfang wants to marry Yuehuan to the successor of the Hanlin Academy, surnamed Yu. ”

Yue Yao frowned: "What do you have to be angry about?" Remarry and follow himself, even if the uncle has this idea, Yuehuan himself is unwilling, can he still force Yuehuan to fail. "The party still wants to exchange the moon ring for benefits, and if you think well, it depends on whether the moon ring matches or not.

Xiang Wei sneered: "I can't get used to the appearance of that face, obviously I want to use the moon ring to seek benefits, and I still look good for the moon ring, which makes people disgusting when I see it." ”

Yueyao said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Yuehuan is still young now, and it is hard to live with Chenghong like this for a lifetime, if there is a suitable candidate, it is good to remarry." ”

Xiang Wei nodded: "Who said it wasn't!" Yuehuan has such a good appearance, a good temperament, and can make money, and has vision, who can marry her is definitely profitable, but it is difficult to find a suitable candidate!" After such a long time, Xiang Wei also learned that although Yuehuan said that she would not remarry, she did not want to guard the money, but was afraid of remarrying into someone else's family and being punished, as long as the other party was suitable in all aspects, the family population was simple, and she could accept Chenghong, Yuehuan should not be rejected.

Yue Yao thought for a moment and said, "Let's see if you want Heyue to pay attention to it." ”

Xiang Wei thought this idea was good: "I'm afraid that Yuehuan won't look down on it, and the people in the army are relatively rude." "Ordinary women are reluctant to marry military generals, and they feel that military generals are rude.

Yueyao smiled and said, "Don't worry, you tell her tomorrow, if she is interested, I will write to ask Heyue, and I will definitely find a good one for her." "The reason why Yueyao moved this idea is that since the uncle has already had this thought, it is better for Yuehuan to plan early, although it is said that it is up to her to marry again, but the uncle is her father after all, if the uncle insists, if Yuehuan does not comply, she will have to tear her face with her mother's family, and it will definitely be Yuehuan who will suffer at that time.

Xiang Weile said hehehe: "Okay." ”

The next day, Xiang Wei told Yuehuan about it: "What do you think?"

Yuehuan remembered that Tingyuan came to look for her again last night, and told her for a long time that the surname Yu was so good, Yuehuan did not directly answer Xiang Wei's words, but asked: "What kind of person is that Lord Yu of the Hanlin Academy?"

Xiang Wei was taken aback: "Won't you be moved by the people of the Lian family?"

Yuehuan smiled and shook her head: "I'm just a little curious, yesterday my brother came to look for me and praised the surname Yu like a flower." ”

Xiang Wei is also not familiar with the surname Yu, so she can't waste time to inquire: "I don't know about this person, but as far as I know, the people in the Hanlin Academy are all old scholars, he took the initiative to go to Lianjia to propose marriage, and nine times out of ten he values your appearance. ”

Moon Ring didn't speak.

Xiang Wei asked, "What do you think of what I just told you?" Whether you want to or not, you have to give a precise word. ”

Yue Yao said with a smile: "As long as the other party has no parents and promises not to accept concubines in the future, he can accept Chenghong wholeheartedly, I can consider it." ”

Xiang Wei said with a smile: "The surnamed Yu is afraid that when he hears these conditions of yours, he will retreat." Then Xiang Wei no longer mentioned the matter of finding a partner, the first and third conditions are okay, but the second condition is a little difficult, how can it be possible for a man not to take a concubine.

Yue Yao listened to Yuehuan's conditions, but said with a smile: "I'll write to ask, maybe there is a suitable person!" There are no absolutes in the world, and there may be just one that meets the requirements of the moon ring.

Yueyao was very efficient, so she wrote a letter immediately, and then asked people to send the letter to the northwest immediately.

A month and a half later, An Zhichen received a letter from Yueyao, and after An Zhichen read the letter, he patiently took all the subordinates who did not have a wife to screen, because it was for the sister-in-law, so the requirements were relatively high, and all the bad temper or rudeness were crossed out.

After some screening, An Zhichen selected two candidates, one is called Ma Jian, the top rider of the fourth product is Du Wei, thirty-one years old, with two sons and a daughter under his knees, his wife passed away two years ago, and his parents have passed away a long time ago, and the other is called Zeng Dazhuang, the total manager of Zheng Wupin, twenty-six years old, his parents died early, his wife died in childbirth five years ago, and now there is only one daughter under his knees.

An Zhichen knows very well that as long as he opens this mouth, these two people will not refuse nine times out of ten, if he really marries Yuehuan, he is not only married to her, but also married to the Lian family, where to find such a good thing, An Zhichen thought for a while, and finally asked Akai to call Zeng Dazhuang.

An Zhichen chose Zeng Dazhuang first, mainly because An Zhichen knew Yueyao, and he knew that if Yueyao came to choose, he would definitely choose Zeng Dazhuang.

The soldier's speech is straightforward and will not beat around the bush, An Zhichen directly told Zeng Dazhuang what he meant: "If you intend to go to the capital, let you meet, if you don't mean it, I won't say it." ”

Zeng Dazhuang's brain was a little confused, and it took a while to come back to his senses: "General, I'm afraid that even the girl won't look down on me." "Lianjia is a scholarly family, hundreds of years of heritage, even if the four girls of the Lianjia family are married for the second time, he is high.

Seeing this, An Zhichen smiled and said, "Let's talk about meeting when we meet in the capital." An Zhichen felt that this was not the first marriage, they were both married for the second time, and they still had a child, where are there so many picks.

Zeng Dazhuang nodded.
