Chapter 188: Private Conversation with Yan's Mother
After three rounds of words, Mrs. Yan glanced at Duanyue meaningfully, waved her hand, and said. www.biquge.info"Duanyue, you and I come here, and I'll talk to you about yourself." When you return to the stars, you will do what you have to do first. ”
Duanyue, who was slightly stunned, looked a little puzzled when she heard her say this. Duanyue subconsciously turned her head to look at Yan Xinghui and asked his opinion first. Yan Xinghui didn't know what Mrs. Yan was going to say, but looking at her kind face, she probably wouldn't do anything out of the ordinary, so she nodded at Duanyue.
Mrs. Yan saw the small movements of the two in her eyes, she pursed her lips, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became thicker. In her eyes, this is just the inseparability between the newlywed Yan'er's little couple, so she is very satisfied.
Seeing Yan Xinghui nodding, Duanyue strode to Mrs. Yan's side. She was led out of the hall and into a quiet wooded backyard.
"Xinghui's child, although it is not my own, has been raised by me for so many years, and I have long regarded it as my own child." Mrs. Yan sighed lightly, and this sentence began.
Duanyue took advantage of this opportunity to take a closer look at Mrs. Yan. I heard that Mrs. Yan was also born among the nobles of Chang'an, and she has good qualities, and she is full of elegance when she raises her hands and feet. As she grew older, Mrs. Yan's body was slightly blessed, and her round face looked really kind, without the slightest sense of intimidation. What's more, she always has a smile on her face.
How could such a woman be wicked? Duanyue lowered her eyes, thinking carefully about the panic that Yan Xinghui had lied to her at that time. This is what a dark person must have in his heart to slander such a gentle and bright woman so much.
"Don't worry, my father-in-law, he also respects you very much." Duanyue was a little weak-hearted, but she still said it. "Xianggong is a person who holds everything in his heart, and he rarely expresses his feelings."
"He doesn't express it at all." Mrs. Yan sighed worriedly after hearing this. "I'm not a person who doesn't listen to anything outside the window, and I understand that Xinghui has a misunderstanding about me. He always felt that it was because of me that his mother abandoned him, and even though I had done my best to raise him for almost twenty years, he still believed it. ”
Mrs. Yan looked at Duanyue with a pleading look. "I don't want anything else, I just want you to help me untie Xinghui's knot."
"I can see that my mother cares about her father-in-law. But why didn't his biological mother disappear, and if there was a misunderstanding, why not resolve it quickly? ”
"It's complicated and simple. I was told by my parents that I was married to an adult, and I became pregnant in the second year of marriage. It just so happened that the adult went to Jiangnan as an official, and I stayed in Chang'an's mother's house to have a baby because of my inconvenience, and I was fortunate to have two pregnant and gave birth to his eldest brother and second brother. The adult met a woman in Jiangnan, and there was a love affair between the two. I'm not a narrow-minded person, don't you say that these dignitaries are all three wives and four concubines? ”
Duanyue blinked, she tilted her head and asked. "Then the Jiangnan woman is Xianggong's biological mother?"
Mrs. Yan nodded. "That's right. The woman soon became pregnant, and the adults intended to take her back to the side room. But things are so tortuous, the Yan family is also a person with a head and a face in Chang'an, and they have always been strict with the marriage of the children of the clan. And that woman is just a maid, at best, she can only be a warm house girl. But the adult is infatuated, how can he be willing to wronged his beloved. I think if it weren't for the fact that the two of us were married, I am afraid that this position in the main room would have to be hers. ”
"Won't my mother be sad? That's your husband! Duanyue couldn't understand why her husband had someone else in her heart, and Mrs. Yan could still say it so lightly. It's as if it's someone else's story.
"How can I not be sad. But it's just a momentary feeling. Mrs. Yan gently took Duanyue's hand and said earnestly. To put it bluntly, we women are men's appendages, and we must know our own lives. ”
She ignored Duanyue's incomprehensible eyes and continued to tell the story of the Jiangnan woman.
The lord took the woman back to Chang'an, and knelt in the Yan family clan for three days and three nights, and did not let the Yan family soften. And Yan's father, who had not died at that time, felt that the adults were just bent on things, and only cared about the love of their children and did not have the courage to take on big things, and wanted to pass on the Yan family to his brothers. After the Jiangnan woman learned about it, she didn't want to drag down the adults because of herself, so she wanted to leave. But before he left, he died of childbirth......"
"Difficult birth?!" Duanyue exclaimed in surprise. "If she dies in childbirth, how can this involve your mother?"
Mrs. Yan looked away and smiled to herself. "I don't know, I'm afraid it's rumored by someone in the house. In short, after the death of the woman, the adults blamed themselves for their inability to protect her, and secondly, they were angry and caused the death of the woman due to the birth of Xinghui. So his attitude towards Xinghui has always been cold, and he ordered his subordinates not to mention the events of the year, so Xinghui thought about it. ”
I didn't expect the truth to be like this. Duanyue tugged at her sleeves, and there were still rumors in her ears about what others said about Yan Xinghui. She suddenly felt sorry for this lonely Yan Xing, because she killed her mother because of her birth, and because of her birth, her father was resentful.
Duanyue looked at Mrs. Yan with distressed eyes and gently patted her shoulder to show comfort. "Don't be sad, the Xianggui will slowly know your good."
"I'm also satisfied with a sensible daughter-in-law like you. How about going with me to send incense to the pillar incense at Guanyin Temple in a few days? Your second sister-in-law is about to give birth, and I have to beg the Bodhisattva to keep her mother and son safe, and I just want a stick of incense for you and Xinghui. ”
Hearing Mrs. Yan say this, Duanyue's face instantly turned red, like the delicate red pomegranate. On the wedding night, I didn't have time to go back to the cave room with Yan Xing to spend candles, and I didn't know when the child would have to be.
"Of course I'm going to go with my mother." Duanyue said, and as soon as the conversation changed, his voice became a lot lower. "They all say that they start a family. Now that the family has become a family, don't you have to find an official position for the prime minister quickly? After all, the eldest brother and the second brother are now working together in the court, and it seems that Xianggong is very idle. ”
Mrs. Yan also nodded in agreement after hearing this. "Of course. I had consulted with him earlier to find him a clerical position, and he would soon be able to take up his post. ”
Duanyue chatted with Mrs. Yan for a while, and seeing that the time was a little longer, Mrs. Yan let Duanyue go back. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Yan Xinghui sitting in the room sipping tea, and he heard someone open the door and asked in a deep voice without raising his head.
"What did she tell you?"
Duanyue calmly closed the door and sat down beside Yan Xinghui and poured himself a cup of tea. "Daddy has found a clerical job for you, but you can go to work in a few days."
Yan Xing's face changed instantly after hearing this, and the teacup in his hand slammed into the table with a "clang". His eyes darkened, and Duanyue couldn't see what he meant.
"Humph!" Yan Xinghui snorted coldly and stood up. "I need them to find an errand for me!" With that, he slammed the door in a rage and left. Duanyue's eyes flashed with helplessness, so she had to drink the tea in the cup.
