Chapter 9 Return to Beijing
The news of Yao Yanyu's injury naturally couldn't be hidden, so as soon as she returned to the mansion, she once again accepted the treatment of the ladies lining up to greet her.
Mrs. He Xi Ruan, Su Yuxuan, and Han Mingcan are naturally indispensable, and Yao Fengge and Ning came early when they heard the news. Even Han Mingye, the county lord of Hanyang who lived in the mansion of the eldest princess of Ninghua, also came, and brought Zhou Yuelin, Han Entropy's wife.
The room was full of all kinds of supplements, and a thick stack of gift lists was placed next to it. Su Yuxuan told Mama Feng to guard over there to avoid mistakes.
Cui Ping had already run to the second gate to wait for Yao Yanyu to enter the door, because she saw her wife walking in with Cui Wei helping her to walk in, and rushed up in surprise: "Madam, aren't you injured?!" It's just wonderful. ”
"Shhhh
"The furry bumped into Madame's injured arm!" Cuiwei immediately cursed.
"Huh?!" Cui Ping was so frightened that she quickly withdrew her hand, "Madame injured her arm?" ”
"Madame's upper arm bone is cracked, but she still hides it from the general, only saying that she sprained her tendons." Cui Wei sighed in a low voice.
"Cracked bones! Don't die of pain! ”
"Alright, don't sting!" Cuiwei was still angry, so she said angrily: "Hurry up and help Mrs. in, I have been doing the car for a few days, and it has fallen apart!" ”
Cui Ping didn't dare to say much about what she had just done wrong, so she hurriedly helped Yao Yanyu inside, and reminded again: "The ladies of all the mansions heard that the lady was injured, and they all came to visit. The county lord of Hanyang also came with Second Lady Han. ”
"Yo! That's fast enough! Yao Yanyu sighed softly.
"The emperor specially issued an order for Mrs. to return to Beijing to recuperate, and now who in the capital of the Great Cloud Emperor does not know Madame's heroic deeds."
Yao Yanyu asked in surprise: "What do they know?" "Shouldn't I write a drama about me shooting Park Kun's head into a drama and stage it in major restaurants and tea shops?
"I know that my wife is unwilling to be a hostage of Gao Linu, and she jumped off her horse heroically, and General Wei attacked the thief leader to buy time." Cui Ping said as a matter of course.
Yao Yanyu was stunned and glanced back at Cuiwei.
Cuiwei asked again: "Then do you know how the thief died?" ”
"Didn't you get an arrow through the throat by the general?" Cui Ping chuckled, "Isn't it better that you are guarding your lady's side as well as I know at home?" ”
"I ......" Cuiwei wanted to say something, but was pressed back by Yao Yanyu's look.
It seems that Wei Zhang deliberately concealed the truth of the truth. But this should also be out of protection for her, after all, the fact that she was a mentally handicapped woman who shot Park Kun's head with a firearm is too appalling to say.
It is natural for a man to kill the enemy, but if a woman is like that, I am afraid that in the future, the people of the Great Cloud Emperor Capital will have to take a detour when they see her.
"Well, didn't you say that the ladies of the provinces are waiting? Let's get inside. Yao Yanyu said, speeding up her pace.
Everyone naturally greeted each other again, especially when Su Yuyu saw Yao Yanyu's wrapped arm, she cried directly. Yao Fengge and Ning also wiped their tears. In the end, Han Mingcan persuaded everyone, and asked someone to put wine and food on the table to sit around and wash the dust for Yao Yanyu.
During the banquet, everyone naturally asked about the situation of being kidnapped, and Yao Yanyu made up random words along with what Cuiwei said.
In the end, Han Mingcan sighed and said, "Fortunately, there is no danger, although my sister was injured, it is still fine." God forbid! Buddha bless! This year, we are going to donate a few taels of silver to the Buddha of Dabei Temple! ”
Everyone agreed to her words, and Yao Fengge also said: "When I go back, I will ask someone to send silver to the temple, and let the master light the lantern for Yanyu in front of the Buddha." ”
Yao Yanyu felt funny in her heart, with that spare money, it was better to get some delicious food to replenish her body. But I couldn't bring it out on my face, so I had to thank the ladies: "Sisters, the kindness of my sisters-in-law will never be forgotten, but I'm afraid that everyone is like this, and I can't afford it." ”
Su Yuxuan said: "Why don't we put together the silver and hand it over to the temple, and let the temple give alms to those poor people for us, and pray for my sister." ”
"That's a good idea." Han Mingcan immediately said: "I'll call someone to do it when I go back." ”
Yao Yan said in her heart that I should shut up, and if I continue to talk about it, these people still don't know what is going on. Anyway, they have to come up with money to show it, but you can't say that you don't toss, give me the money!
Everyone talked and laughed together until Shen Shi left in the afternoon, and finally the Ning family left, only Yao Fengge didn't say anything about leaving, as if he had something to say. Yao Yanyu said to Su Yuyu: "My sister has worked hard all day today, please go back and rest first." Ming'er, I'll have a separate banquet to thank you. ”
Su Yuxin said unhappily: "What did my sister say? Did I thank you? ”
"Good! We are sisters. Yao Yanyu persuaded with a smile: "I'm also tired, you must be tired after a busy day." Leave the rest to the maids. ”
Su Yuxuan also saw that Yao Fengge had something to say to Yao Yanyu, so she didn't say anything more, and only said goodbye and left with Ruan.
"Sister, let's go to the inner room." Yao Yanyu got up, took Yao Fengge's arm and went to the bedroom to speak.
Yao Fengge held her uninjured left arm and persuaded in a low voice: "Slow down, does your arm still hurt badly?" ”
"I've been much better with my own elder."
While they were talking, the two sisters entered the house, and Xiang Zhi went out with two cups of sugar water made of acacia honey. Yao Fengge hesitated for a moment, and Fang sighed in a low voice: "Sister, speaking of which...... It should be my sister who hurt you. I originally wanted to rot this in my heart for the rest of my life, but I just think that you are innocent because I have suffered this unwarranted disaster, if I don't make it clear to you, I am afraid that I will not have the face to see you in this life. ”
Yao Yanyu asked curiously, "What does this have to do with my sister?" ”
Yao Fengge turned his face away, as if he was hesitating and it seemed difficult to speak, but in the end he held Yao Yanyu's hand and told the truth. told Yao Yanyu about her and King Hengjun, and finally said: "I think he is looking for you, giving you Zhuangzi and giving you people, it's just that I have that little thought." I didn't care about it before, I always felt that my heart was like stagnant water anyway, and what he wanted was his business. But now it seems that I should have told my sister a long time ago, maybe she would not have accepted his gift. Then my sister won't be misunderstood by the emperor......"
"Hey!" Yao Yanyu sighed and said with a smile: "What kind of big deal should I do!" It turned out to be these. My sister didn't say it, but I actually guessed a few points. But that's all in the past, and it's right for my sister not to mention it. As for the emperor's suspicion of any collusion between the General's Mansion and the Hengjun Palace, the truth has now been revealed. It's all the people of the Feng family who provoke it, and they want the fisherman to profit. This has nothing to do with my sister, and my sister doesn't have to feel guilty. ”
Yao Fengge sighed and shook her head again, Yao Yanyu persuaded her a few more words, and just used gossip to divert the matter. Because he accidentally mentioned the Feng family's raid, Yao Yanyu asked: "I don't know if the Zhenguo Mansion will be implicated because of this?" ”
"Are you worried about their marriage with the Feng family?"
"Yes, Feng Shaoying is the granddaughter of the Feng family." Yao Yanyu was a little worried.
Yao Fengge smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, Eldest Princess Ninghua is by no means incompetent. The Zhenguo Mansion is not her Feng Shaoying alone. Besides, the law of the Great Cloud Dynasty clearly stipulates that no sin will be added to the marriage of a daughter. Besides, Feng Shaoying also has the mother of the county lord of Lingxi and the uncle of Yan Wangye. Misfortune will not fall on her head. It's just that her mother's family has collapsed, and her life will not be better in the future. ”
Hearing this, Yao Yanyu couldn't help but sigh: "Hey! Marriage to marriage. When it's good, everyone is good, and once one family falls apart, everyone will fall apart. ”
"There's no way to do it." Yao Fengge sighed helplessly: "Actually, if she hadn't married into the Zhenguo Mansion, she would definitely have been implicated and copied together." Now it seems that she can be safe and sound, and she will be able to take care of the children and grandchildren of the Feng family in the future. Even though the descendants of the Feng family can no longer enter the court as officials, they can always live a stable life when they return to their ancestral hometown to study and farm. ”
"In this way, the disaster of the Feng family has not affected the children and grandchildren?"
Feng Ziyun and Feng Ziday were both imprisoned in the Criminal Department, and Feng Ziyang's wife Yang was also locked up because of the huge amount of money he put in the seal and forced him to die. I only heard that the children of the second room and the eldest son, Feng Shaochen, are temporarily living in the county lord's mansion. However, the county lord of Lingxi was also reprimanded by the prince of Yan, and begged the prince of Cheng to send Jinlin Wei to surround the county lord's mansion, only allowing them to eat and drink freely, but they could not leave the mansion. said that everything would wait for the Feng family's affairs to pass. ”
Yao Yanyu listened and couldn't help nodding: "This is the benefit of Lord Shang." None of the great evils will affect the children and grandchildren. ”
Yao Fengge shook his head and sighed: "It's just to save your life." "In the eyes of the world, it is better for a family like the Feng family to lose their glory and wealth than to die clean.
When the two sisters said this, the sky darkened, and Cuiwei came in and asked where the dinner was, and Yao Fengge suddenly said: "I only cared about talking, but I forgot the time." I have to go back, Yue'er is still at home. ”
"It's never too late for my sister to come back after dinner." Yao Yanyu said, and instructed Cuiwei to bring in dinner immediately.
Yao Fengge accompanied Yao Yanyu to have a simple dinner, and then hurriedly said goodbye and went back. Wei Zhang returned at three o'clock, and when he came back, Yao Yanyu was already asleep. Xiang Zhi was doing needlework under the lamp outside, and when he saw Wei Zhang coming in, he hurriedly got up to greet him, and whispered, "General, Madame has fallen asleep." ”
"Well, you can go down too." Wei Zhang handed the sable sable to Xiang Xue and turned to go into the bedroom.
"There's a supper in the kitchen that Madame ordered the general to leave, does the general want to use some more?"
"No need." Wei Zhang entered the bedroom without looking back, and Xiang Zhi hung up his clothes, and quietly withdrew with his needlework basket.
There was nothing to say for a night, and when Wei Zhang got up early the next morning, Yao Yanyu woke up when he heard the movement, so he wrapped himself in the quilt and asked him about the situation of the court. Wei Zhang briefly told her while dressing and washing, it was nothing more than how those courtiers pursued advantages and avoided disadvantages in this political turmoil, and they all stood in line again, and then said that he had given her leave in front of the emperor, and the emperor allowed her to recuperate at home, and everything would be said after the year.
Yao Yanyu sighed and sighed: "It's so good, there are so many things this year, I have been through several disasters, and I can finally have a few days to free at the end of the year." ”
Wei Zhang had already finished wearing, the lion embroidery on a luxurious purple official robe was majestic, and the delicate flower rhino belt bound his narrow and slender waist, and the folds of the robe around the waist were even and neat.
Yao Yanyu sat up and asked, "Is there a big court meeting today?" ”
"Hmm." Wei Zhang turned around and sat back on the bed, leaned over and kissed her fiercely on the face: "You go back to sleep, I will try to come back early and try to eat with you at noon." ”
"Okay." Yao Yanyu smiled and bent her eyebrows, watching his slender figure disappear outside the bead curtain, and lazily lay back to sleep.
The days of recuperation were really leisurely, because of the injury in her right arm, Yao Yanyu couldn't even write, so she had to lean on the couch every day to read the medical book, and when she was annoyed, she asked the nurse to bring Ling Xiao over to tease him.
In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival is approaching, and the whole house is starting to get busy. Although after the earthquake and natural disasters, everyone has not yet recovered from their grief, but the New Year still has to pass.
Spear made a special trip to come in and say this year's New Year's goods list, please ask Mrs. to decide.
After Yao Yanyu took the long list, she frowned and said: "In previous years, during the Chinese New Year, there would always be some left of those who ate or something, and after the New Year, they took it out and scattered people." That's not good. This year's catastrophe has made life difficult everywhere, so let's be more frugal. ”
Spear hesitated and said, "What Madame said is that the minions also know that it is difficult everywhere, but this is already very frugal. New Year's Eve, there is always more than enough every year. ”
"Okay, you can do it, I just don't want you to wait for fifteen more to take out some hairy steamed buns or something." Yao Yanyu said, raising her hand and throwing the list aside on the high desk.
The spear trembled in fright, and quickly responded: "The slave doesn't dare anymore." Please rest assured, Madame. ”
"Go ahead." Yao Yanyu said lightly, lowered her head and continued to read.
"Yes." The spear quietly glanced at Xiang Zhi, Xiang Zhi stepped forward and handed him the list, the chief manager saluted again, and Fang left in a hurry.
After the spear went out, he asked the stewards to come in, discussed it carefully, and recounted all the things in the house for his own use, and then opened another list. One of the stewards in charge of the exchange of gifts in various provinces asked: "Chief Administrator, our own frugality is enough, is it not possible to reduce the annual gifts for each government?" ”
"Looking at Madame's meaning, it is natural to shrink."
"But if other families don't shrink, we will have fewer partial births. The face of this general's mansion is not good-looking, right? ”
The spear thought that this was the reason, but looking at the face of the lady just now, he didn't have the courage to ask again. So I went around in circles and found Cuiwei to ask for advice. After listening to his words, Cuiwei sighed softly: "What Madam means, you still don't understand?" This year, not only will the expenses of the prefecture be reduced, but the exchange of gifts and gifts with the prefecture will naturally also be reduced. It's not a matter of face, it's a matter of life and death! ”
"You're blinded to me again!" Spear smiled disapprerovingly, "It's just the New Year's gift of each prefecture, and the ceremony is still exchanged, what does it have to do with life and death?" ”
Cuiwei frowned and sighed: "Look at you are usually a very shrewd person, why are you confused at a critical time?" This year is the year of the catastrophe, from the emperor to the people, there is no one who does not hurt his muscles and bones! The emperor's Nanyuan hasn't been repaired yet, so you're going to give New Year's gifts to each family one by one? You are the people who eat white rice? ”
The spear suddenly came to his senses, raised his hand and slapped his head, and sighed repeatedly: "It's me who is confused!" It's me who is confused! ”
Cui smiled and handed him the list, and admonished, "Shrink it a little more." Don't worry, it's definitely not just our wife who can think of this. ”
"Yes, yes. Thank you so much for that! The spear said, bowing deeply towards Cuiwei.
Cuiwei saw that he was fine, so she began to drive people away: "You are busy with your going, I will also boil medicine for Mrs. here." ”
"Hey...... Cuiwei? The spear looked at Cuiwei's back, and stopped talking.
Cuiwei was so focused on the jar of medicine that she didn't hear the spear's words at all. The curtain of the door behind him was suddenly opened, a gust of cold wind poured in, the spear was excited, and when he turned around, he saw Ge Hai's gloomy face.
"Yo, General Ge is here." The spear is not afraid of Ge Hai, and he has played since he was a child, but he has no talent for martial arts and has not followed the general to the battlefield.
"What are you doing here?" Ge Hai's face was gloomy and dripping water. If it weren't for the love that he grew up with, he could slap the spear to death. God knows that his sweetheart has been refusing to accept himself because he is pretending to be this guy! If this is placed on the battlefield, this product is its own number one world!
Spear smiled and said, "Yo, I can't talk to Cuiwei?" She's not your wife yet, you care so tightly, if she really marries you, won't you be tied to the belt of your pants? ”
"Fart!" Ge Hai glared at the spear angrily: "You kid don't owe, right?" ”
The chief manager immediately glanced at General Ge with contempt: "If you can't say it, just fight, what else do you have to do?" ”
"You ......" Ge Hai was anxious, reached out and grabbed the collar of the spear, grinning and wanting to throw him out directly.
Cuiwei buckled the lid of the medicine hanger, turned to look at the two people who were fighting cocks here, walked to the door and lifted the curtain, raised her chin and said lightly: "You two, go out!" ”
"Cuiwei, I'm ......" Ge Hai saw that Cuiwei was angry, and hurriedly let go of the spear and came forward to explain.
"Get out!" Cuiwei didn't let him speak at all.
"I'm not to blame for that." The innocent wink of the spear.
"What the fuck you!" Ge Hai glared at him angrily.
"I repeat, get out!" Cui Wei looked at Ge Hai coldly, "You, go out!" ”
"Why me! I'm looking for you...... Well, I'll get back to you. Ge Hai looked at Cuiwei's cold face, touched his nose and turned out to go out, walked two steps and was not at ease, and then turned back and dragged the spear collar and pulled the person out.
Cui Wei glared at the backs of the two with hatred, dropped the curtain, and closed the door.
……
When she drank the medicine, Yao Yanyu saw that Cuiwei's face was not good, so she asked, "What's wrong with you?" Why is your face so ugly? ”
Cui Wei hurriedly said: "It's not much, it's not good." ”
"I'm not telling the truth yet." Yao Yanyu glanced at her with disgust, and put the medicine bowl aside, "Ganggehai came to look for me." said that he wanted to take advantage of the New Year to marry you. What the hell do you mean, hurry up and give someone a word. It's a big deal, and it's a waste of time to wait any longer. ”
Cui Wei lowered her head and whispered, "The slave and maid are all up to the lady." ”
"I can't call the shots. Besides, you're no longer a slave. I have already told my second sister-in-law that she wants to recognize you as a righteous sister, and you will marry as the daughter of the Ning family. The dowry and everything else were already ready. It's just that this earthquake has caused some losses, but it is not difficult to make up for it, but there is a store at home, and what is missing is directly taken from the warehouse, but it takes some effort. ”
Hearing this, Cuiwei knelt on the ground with soft knees and kowtowed to Yao Yanyu: "Cuiwei is so virtuous, Mrs. has to treat her like this." Cuiwei has been a lady's person all her life, and everything in Cuiwei is decided by her wife. ”
"You! I really didn't pursue it. Yao Yanyu sighed helplessly, "Hurry up, I'm also a medical officer of the sixth grade, and I still kneel at every turn!" ”
The incense next to him hurriedly stepped forward to pull Cuiwei up. Yao Yan said: "I think Ge Hai is sincere to you. And Spear has already let you go, and I won't tell you the truth, Spear's uncle has taken a fancy to a girl from a small family outside, and has already come to tell me, and he will be hired after the New Year, and the wedding date is set for April. According to me, don't hesitate anymore, it's better to marry Ge Hai during the Chinese New Year. ”
"This ...... Wouldn't it be too much of a rush? Cuiwei was still hesitating.
"Now that they have identified each other, what difference does it make if they are one day earlier or one day later? Besides, didn't you tell me before that this natural disaster was thanks to Ge Hai for saving your life? Saying that, Yao Yanyu asked with a smile, "People saved your life, but you still have to make a promise?" ”
"Madame is a joker again." Cui Weideng's face turned red, remembering the night of the earthquake, when she was untidy and ran out of Ge Hai wrapped in a quilt, and the strange eyes that everyone looked at her in the panic at that time, she felt that she couldn't raise her head.
"Alright! The big girls in their twenties have reached the age of hating to marry. Yao Yanyu said, then turned her head and instructed Xiangxu: "Go and talk to Mama Feng, let her find a time to go back to the house in the next two days, and tell the second sister-in-law that she will ask her to worry more about Cuiwei's affairs." ”
Xiangzhi agreed to go out, Yao Yanyu asked Cuiwei to sit down beside her, took her hand and sighed softly: "In the end, I am also selfish. You and Cui Ping, you two, I don't want to marry too far, and I don't want you to be wronged and be a slave for the rest of your life. You two have served me since I was a child, and you have been with me longer than any other family member, and you have been wholeheartedly planning for me, and you have never had two hearts. I think a few of us can go a long way. ”
Cuiwei was in tears by these words, and held Yao Yanyu's hand and said repeatedly: "Meeting Mrs. is the blessing of our life!" ”
Seeing this, Yao Yanyu scolded with a smile: "Silly girl, you cry like this at this time, and you don't know that you think I forced you to marry." ”
Cui Wei hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and then burst into a smile: "Even if you are forced by your wife, you are happy." ”
"Nonsense." Yao Yanyu also smiled.
