Chapter 53 Seeking medicine for the king, suffering and being willing to be the love of parents
The Xue family knew about it the day after Xue Ren left, and with the letter left by Xue Ren, the Xue family was about to go crazy, seeing that the wedding was approaching and it was too late to tell the truth and postpone the wedding, this face was lost. The second elder of the Xue family felt that his son liked Dongfang Yu so much, and it was very likely that he would come back before the wedding, if he spread the news that the wedding would be canceled before, if his son came back before the scheduled wedding, it would be troublesome at that time, anyway, it was like this, they might as well just give it a go, there was always hope.
On the eve of the wedding, Xue Ren still didn't come back, the Xue family didn't give up, they didn't reveal it until the last moment, and it really didn't work to get married, Anqing had the custom that the husband was not there, and he could use the rooster instead of holding the wedding, Xue Ren didn't show up in the end, and the Xue family could only use this method. Dongfang Yu noticed that something was wrong when he went to the church at the wedding, and when he lifted the hijab, he didn't see his husband and only saw a rooster in the position that his fiancé had originally changed, Dongfang Yu was furious.
The Dongfang family was also angry when they came to see their relatives, although they were angry when they saw this scene, they didn't dare to go up and interrupt at will, after all, the Dongfang family is a family with a head and a face, even if the man's family has done it, but it is better to marry someone in, and Dongfang Yu loves Xue Ren very much, so he may not be unwilling. Xue Ren has been away more than at home in the past two years, although he loves Dongfang Yu and is extremely obsessed with pharmacology, he often forgets to date Dongfang Yu in order to study medicine, Dongfang Yu is not angry, maybe she will be angry this time, but she is still willing to wait for Xue Ren to come back after getting married and settle accounts after the autumn.
In the end, the people of the Dongfang family suppressed their anger and chose not to speak, and it was not until Dongfang Yu finally lifted his head and asked loudly after seeing the ridiculous scene in front of him that they broke out. Seeing that the wedding could not go on, the people of the Dongfang family also broke out, in order to protect Dongfang Yu, they tried to save the reputation of the Dongfang family. The man's groom did not appear at the wedding, and the girls from their Oriental family also made it clear that they would not marry, and if they still wanted to continue the wedding, it would be too cheap. For this reason, the people of the Dongfang family tried their best to reprimand the Xue family for not being kind, Dongfang Yu left sadly in the noise, followed by Yun Zhentian, who was very angry and worried.
After that, Dongfang Yu was extremely depressed, but fortunately, Dongfang Yu's parents had a baby daughter of Dongfang Yu and they were open-minded, only comforting her and putting down all the gossip for her, Yun Zhentian also temporarily dispelled the idea of leaving, and changed ways to make her happy every day. Dongfang Yu's mood gradually improved, she cleaned up her mood, and decided to wait for Xue Ren to come back and ask for an explanation, and then she had to clean him up.
After waiting for three months, Dongfang Yu was anxious, Xue Ren had been away from home for so long before, but not for so long without even a letter, at that time Dongfang Yu wanted to wait for Xue Ren to come back, she had to clean him up. When it was close to a year, Dongfang Yu thought that if Xue Ren came back before the one-year deadline, she would forgive him and not bother with him. After a full year, Xue Ren still hadn't returned, Dongfang Yu was in a very low mood, Yun Zhentian, who was training the guards in the imperial city for Dongfang Yu not returning to the barracks, noticed her low mood and tried to squeeze out time to accompany her.
But her mood has not yet recovered, and something even more frustrating is coming, Yun Zhentian's father was injured in a sneak attack by the enemy in the military camp, and the battle ahead is tight, Yun Zhentian couldn't stay any longer, and immediately packed his bags and went to the front line.
Dongfang Yu doesn't have much to think about the relationship between children now, she is very worried about the situation of Yun Zhentian's father and son, she can also receive Yun Zhentian's letter when she writes from two ends in three days, although every time there are only a few words "Where, be well, don't read", Dongfang Yu can still feel at ease. Yun Zhentian's father was injured and returned first, and Dongfang Yu often dragged his father and mother to visit together, and he was a lot less worried about Xue Ren.
After more than half a year, Yun Zhentian came back from a victory, this victory was not easy, he fought beautifully, he became a deputy general from a small soldier after several years of hard work, after his father was injured, the emperor did not use a more experienced general but appointed him as the commander-in-chief, many people are not very optimistic about him, feel that this battle is a disadvantage is only afraid of losing, and finally Yun Zhentian returned victorious, famous in Anqing, and the limelight is unparalleled for a while.
On the day Yun Zhentian returned to Ancheng, Dongfang Yu also went out to pick him up, but she was frightened by the crowd on the road, she couldn't squeeze in front, and could only stand behind the crowd and watch. When Yun Zhentian entered Ancheng, the crowd was boiling, and what Dongfang Yu didn't expect was that he usually spoke very quietly, and the nobles of Ancheng who were afraid of scaring anyone were all crowded on the second floor of the restaurant with a better view and shouted at the top of their voices, the voice was not inferior to the man's voice, and it was even more shrill and piercing.
Dongfang Yu looks down on these women a little, she is too unreserved, and she doesn't look like a lady at all. Later, when Yun Zhentian, who was riding a horse and wearing black armor, came into her field of vision with a mighty army, she suddenly understood the gaffe of the group of noble women, the sunlight was shining on Yun Zhentian's black armor, reflecting the light, and the heroic posture was like a god descending to earth, Dongfang Yu felt shocked, and she found for the first time that this Yun brother, who had accompanied her since she could remember, was so handsome.
Dongfang Yu discovered one thing since Yun Zhentian came back, needless to say, Yun Zhentian came back and rewarded him richly, but he didn't expect those nobles who had always been reserved in Ancheng to send matchmakers to propose marriage. What surprised her even more was that there were not one or two people who came to propose, but a large group. I've only heard of a family with a hundred families asking for it, but I haven't heard of a family asking for a hundred families, and it's still a noble woman who has always prided herself on being high.
In fact, in the past, when Yun Zhentian and his mother got together, they wanted to propose marriage to their daughters, nieces or nieces to Yun Zhentian, and the status of the Yun family was there, and Yun Zhentian was also a capable person, and he was stared at. It's just that Mrs. Yun always says that her son chooses by himself, and they don't interfere in his marriage, so Yun Zhentian will always meet a young lady of the family who has a broken foot or a broken carriage or something on the road, and he was very polite at first to send people back in person, but later realized that something was wrong and directly asked his subordinates to do it for him.
Yun Zhentian was very busy after he came back, he temporarily stayed in Beijing to get a new errand and was so busy that he didn't see anyone all day, Dongfang Yu didn't see him a few times, but he often heard his mother say that the daughter of a certain official also sent a matchmaker to Yunfu to propose, Dongfang Yu didn't get tired of it, and finally couldn't help but take the maid out for a walk one day. I didn't expect to hear Yun Zhentian's name everywhere he went, and when they went to the restaurant to eat, it was even more exaggerated, and there was a storyteller who directly talked about Yun Zhentian's deeds, and it was obvious that he was not talking about Yun Zhentian on the first day.
After Dongfang Yu sat down, the storyteller came in to tell the story, and when he came, there were many people who greeted him and said that he came and they were all in a hurry or something, the storyteller said that Yun Zhentian finally defeated the enemy's deeds, Dongfang Yu also felt blood boiling when he heard it, and then the storyteller talked about Yun Zhentian's constant door-to-door visits in the past few days, he said: " General Yun Xiao was originally the son-in-law of many noble girls in Ancheng, and now that he has returned from victory, not to mention how many levels he jumped to be promoted to a second-class general, just the handsome and handsome appearance on the day he returned to Ancheng was enough to make many nobles abandon their reserve and take the initiative to come to the door to propose marriage......"
Dongfang Yu was very irritable after going back, but he didn't expect to go to the next person after a while and say that there was her letter, Xue Ren's letter. Dongfang Yu tore up the letter after reading it, it was several days after her birthday before he wrote to wish her a happy birthday, it has been almost two years, and this letter is only three letters. The first letter that Xue Ren received was when he disappeared for more than four months, and the second letter was from him when she was about to celebrate the Chinese New Year last year, all of which were very brief, and they didn't say where he was, and how his medicine research was doing. Dongfang Yu was bitter in her heart, but she still couldn't bear to tear up the two letters, but this time she tore up the letters, and she felt that she didn't understand the hatred and tore up the previous two letters.
Heh, what is the point of the letter coming back after the person who has disappeared for almost two years? After the marriage with Xue Ren was not concluded, a son of an official family who had failed to ask Dongfang Yu several times came to the door again to propose marriage, saying that he did not dislike her for being repented of his marriage and was willing to accept her, but he could not be a wife but a concubine. Dongfang Yu's parents were so angry that they asked people to kick him out, and the scoundrel actually yelled and slandered her outside the mansion, and then Yun Zhentian came out to beat him away, Xue Ren didn't know where he was at that time, she had been waiting for almost two years, and he didn't know where he was.
Dongfang Yu thinks about her birthday, no matter where Yun Zhentian is, he will send her a gift, this year's birthday when he was still on the way back to Ancheng, he asked people to come back first to bring her a gift, at that time she took Yun Zhentian and sent her a letter, the letter only had four words "I'm back", but she felt very warm. At that time, Xue Chen didn't hear from her, but now that she has a letter, except for seeing how hard he said how hard it was to find medicinal herbs, he didn't know how to greet her, and she didn't even know where he was doing with his letter.
Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is the end of the year, Yun Zhentian still has not been engaged, but he and the daughter of the military department Shangshu suddenly got very close, Yun Zhentian rarely had time to be idle to come to see her, but they were often ruined by that woman for their time alone, so Dongfang Yu was very depressed. Her brother Yun was occupied by other women, and she had a deep grudge.
After the year, Dongfang Yu did not receive any more letters from Xue Ren.
When the spring flowers were blooming, the daughter of the military department Shangshu suddenly invited her to the banquet, Dongfang Yu had never had a good face for that woman, but he didn't expect her to invite her, she refused, and then the woman always liked to pester her if she had nothing to do, and she finally couldn't stand the compromise. She never expected that this woman would be bold enough to attack her at the banquet.
The woman said that there was something to tell her, the two arrived at the lake, Dongfang Yu subconsciously took a few steps away from the lake to prevent being pushed into the water, and in the end she was not pushed into the water, but was covered by someone and dragged into the rockery, and then a man pressed her to the ground and turned over, she saw the scoundrel who came to her house to propose marriage before.
Then, Dongfang Yu heard the woman say, "I tried my best to Yun Zhentian but didn't look at me, since he is full of only you, then I will destroy you, wait for you to lose your innocence, see if he will guard you." A woman who has been repented of her marriage should be a concubine, don't always make trouble when I ask Yun Zhentian to go out, this is really annoying, even if Yun Zhentian only has you in his heart, you don't have the life to be Mrs. Yun. People, it's better to keep your duty......"
