106. Light and heavy
Located on Suzaku Street, the Zhou Guogong Mansion was originally two mansions juxtaposed by the old Guogong Mansion and the new Guogong Mansion. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 In order to facilitate the care of Mrs. Rongguo, the two houses were opened into one, so it was particularly generous.
At this time, the Guogong Mansion, which was extraordinary in the past, was plain white.
Mrs. Zheng Guo has already mourned, and because the two saints attach great importance to it, the dignitaries naturally dare not slack off. In the past few days, there has been an endless stream of people who have come to mourn. Cars and horses hung with white curtains flowed endlessly from morning to night. The people who came were all dressed in plain clothes, and their faces wore a look of sadness like losing their mothers.
Ding Buwang, a native of Guogongfu, Mrs. Zheng Guo only had a son and a daughter, and Mrs. Wei died early, leaving Wu Min alone. Wu Minzhi only has an only son named Wan'er, and he is only five or six years old now.
Therefore, although the Guogong Mansion looks prominent, the number of filial sons and grandsons is really poor. Fortunately, Empress Wu released a few people in the palace who had been waiting for Mrs. Zheng Guo for many years, plus a few dancing girls in the house, and knelt in front of Mrs. Zheng Guo's spirit in two rows, but she could barely see it.
In the next two days, everyone who should have come came, and the front of the Guogong Mansion was finally left out in the cold. In a plain white, it looks even more desolate.
Wu Minzhi led his wife and children and the servants who pretended to be filial sons and grandsons to kneel in front of Mrs. Zheng Guo's spiritual case.
The dim candlelight reflected his pale and haggard face.
There was no expression on his face, and even his eyes seemed to be in a trance.
Ever since Mrs. Zheng Guo left, he has always been like this.
Mrs. Rongguo, who was sitting on the side, saw it in her eyes, and her heart couldn't help but tense for a while.
Fortunately, although he resembled a wooden man, he was polite and thoughtful, and there was nothing wrong with kneeling and thanking him.
Mrs. Rongguo let out a long sigh in her heart, holding the silk handkerchief and rolling her eyes. I thought hard in my head, this is not the way to go on, I have to find someone who is good with Min Zhisu and persuade him.
Mrs. Yang Sijian, Siwei Shaoqing, took her daughter Yang Yuniang, and at this moment, she was led by the steward and entered the mourning hall.
This Yang Sijian has the same surname as Mrs. Rongguo, and has climbed the same clan, and his wife and daughter have always been very close to Mrs. Rongguo. Especially Yu Niang, who was born as beautiful as a flower, dignified and virtuous, gentle and generous, smart and clever, Mrs. Rongguo likes it very much.
When Empress Lian Wu visited her mother, she saw Yu Niang a few times in the Guogong Mansion, and she was also quite praised.
Yang Sijian's family had already come to mourn, but Yu Niang remembered that Mrs. Zheng Guo was so good to her that she was so sad that she fell ill and failed to come. I felt better today, so I pestered my mother to accompany her and went again.
Mrs. Rongguo felt a little comforted in her heart, and felt that Su Ri did not hurt this child in vain.
Seeing that Yu Niang's face was haggard, and sure enough, she was recovering from a long illness, and Mrs. Rongguo was distressed for a while, and couldn't help but shed tears.
As soon as Yang Yuniang saw Mrs. Rongguo, she threw herself into her arms.
"Grandmother, you must take care of yourself." She hugged Mrs. Rongguo and cried sadly, but Mrs. Rongguo's mood couldn't help but improve.
"Good boy, I'm okay." Mrs. Rongguo stroked Yu Niang's hand, but her eyes looked at Wu Minzhi who was kneeling beside her, "It's just that it's hard for your cousin......"
Although Yang Yu and Wu Minzhi are not real cousins, their relationship is very good. She has liked to follow Wu Minzhi and Yueniang since she was a child, although Wu Minzhi is not as good as Yueniang, she has always been good.
Especially after Yueniang left, he seemed to pour his feelings for Yueniang into her, and he treated her even more than before. When Mrs. Rongguo said this, she actually hoped that Yu Niang could help persuade Wu Minzhi. She thought that Yu Niang's words, Minzhi might be able to listen to them a little.
Yu Niang had already seen Wu Minzhi's appearance in her heart. The cousin who used to be graceful and graceful in the wind has become like this, and she is also very uncomfortable. Listening to Mrs. Rongguo's words, her steps couldn't help but move in the direction of Wu Minzhi.
Mrs. Yang came over at this time, held Yu Niang's hand tightly, and said to her in a deep voice: "Why don't you go and incense your aunt." ”
With his back to Mrs. Rongguo, he quietly glanced at Yang Yuniang.
Yang Yuniang was stunned, her face was red and white, she hesitated for a moment, and finally relied on her mother.
She put incense over there, and Mrs. Yang mixed Mrs. Rongguo's arm and explained the reason why Yu Niang dragged it until today. In the end, Yu Niang has been sick for a few days, but she still hasn't seen any better, just thinking that tomorrow is the day of her aunt's funeral, and the child doesn't even listen to the doctor's words, so she has to send her aunt a ride in person.
"This kid is really filial." Mrs. Yang lowered her head and wiped away her tears, "No wonder, Mrs. treats her and has always been ...... her own life."
After Mrs. Yang said some condolences to Mrs. Rongguo, she shirked the doctor's repeated advice that Yu Niang's illness needed to recuperate, and she really couldn't stay for a long time, so she dared to come to visit the old lady again in the future.
Mrs. Rongguo responded lightly, and Mrs. Yang withdrew from the mourning hall with Yang Yuniang's hand.
Yang Yuniang glanced back at Wu Minzhi as she walked. Seeing Wu Minzhi's expressionless face, he felt a little unbearable, but he also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she is still young, she grew up in such a family, but she also knows the importance of it.
Ah Niang revealed two points in private, and now she is not as good as before, she is a popular candidate for the crown princess. Not to mention that she and Wu Minzhi are not real cousins, they are real, men and women are different, and at this critical moment, they should also know to avoid suspicion.
Not only cousins, but all men except their own brothers should keep their distance. Otherwise, you think you are open-minded, but you can't help but be picked by others. How many people are staring at the position of the crown princess. If one is careless, his future is small, and the reputation of the family is damaged, and the sin is great. If you miss the prince for such a reason, and you want to get married again in the future, it will be difficult to get to the sky.
Yang Yuniang got into the carriage and sat down, sighed, and whispered to her mother: "A-Niang, grandmother won't complain about me, right?" “
Mrs. Yang was also worried in her heart, but she could only comfort her daughter: "You have done your best to be a junior, and your grandmother has always been an understanding person, how can she complain about you?" ”
Mrs. Rongguo watched the Yang family and his party walk away, although her face was expressionless, she couldn't stop sneering in her heart.
How could she not understand Mrs. Yang's thoughts? Not only understands, but as a mother, I also understand her ways.
Over the years, for the sake of several daughters, especially Mei Niang, why hasn't she been careful and planned everywhere? Even now, people outside look at it, Mei Niang, the queen, has a stable status so that she doesn't need to rely on the emperor, but she doesn't dare to relax in the slightest.
This position of the crown princess is just a cake for the Yang family, although it seems that it is within reach, it is still undecided, and it has not been held in the hand. Mrs. Yang's caution is not exaggerated.
Mrs. Rongguo has always been thoughtful and open-minded, only weighing the pros and cons in everything, and not looking at right and wrong. As the mother of the queen, she has many people around her, but how many of them are sincere? She knows it, but she never says it. Matchmaking, not to mention profitable, as long as it is harmless to herself, she has done no less.
Yu Niang is the same age as the prince, and she knows the roots, she has called her grandmother for so many years, Mrs. Yang has a mind, and she is happy to be a favor. In front of her daughter, she didn't say a lot of good things for Yu Niang. It was a few encounters between Empress Wu and Yu Niang, saying that it was a coincidence, which time was not her careful arrangement?
