Chapter Twenty-Seven: Old Things
Danyu thought that no one had discovered her careful thoughts, but she didn't know that the peeking glances happened to be seen by Duo Yu, who was sitting diagonally opposite her.
Duo Yu couldn't help but laugh secretly, that paragraph Zewu was the eldest son of the Anguo Mansion, the future Anguo Mansion, not to mention how many noble girls from the capital were vying to be the daughter-in-law of the Anguo Mansion, just saying that Danyu herself was only a concubine, although it was recorded in the name of the main mother, but after all, she grew up in front of her aunt, and those who had a heart would know what was going on after a little inquiry. The difference between the concubines and the concubines is also due to Danyu's daring to save this heart.
Duan Zewu didn't know that he had become the object of slander in other people's hearts. Because he wanted to find out the cause of Chu He's death, he kept observing Huiyu with his spare eyes. may be the reason for her quiet nature, Hui Yu has been sitting quietly, her eyes are slightly drooping, and she looks like she is looking at her nose and nose. Even if the fourth cousin and the ladies of the Chu family mentioned her in words, she would at most raise her head and look at the person who spoke. It looks like how well-behaved and well-behaved it is, it doesn't look like she's hiding something, and besides, a girl at such a young age has been growing up in the boudoir, if she really thinks that there is something wrong with her father's death, she probably can't be so calm. Could it be that the inner house really didn't have the slightest rumor about the death of Chu He? Duan Zewu thought to himself, his brows furrowed almost invisibly.
Although Hui Yu is calm and comfortable on the face, she is actually a little like a needle felt. It may be that she has been growing up in an orphanage in her previous life, and she has been very sensitive to the people and things around her since she was a child, and Huiyu can feel that there is a gaze that has been staying on her. That gaze was not very warm, but it never left him. And Hui Yu felt that this gaze came from the direction of Duan Hong and Duan Zewu. Duan Hong was talking to Chang's family, and it was impossible for him to be distracted anymore. Then there is only Duan Zewu. But he and Duan Zewu have never met, saying that they are cousins and cousins, but in fact, they are also separated from each other, why does he stare at himself? Hui Yu couldn't figure it out, so she could only pretend to be casual and continue to sit, hoping that Duan Hong and the others would hurry back to their seats.
Hui Yu was depressed, when she heard Duan Hong and Chang Shi say, "Duan has a reluctant request. Duan and Sister Hui have not met for more than ten years, and when the funeral is over, Duan returns to the capital and doesn't know when he will see him again, so he wants to see Sister Hui more in the past few days in the house, which can be regarded as my uncle's love for her. ”
Duan Hong and others traveled thousands of miles to the northwest, although they were going to send a funeral, but they also had a lot of advice to take care of Hui Yuding, and Subei Hou and Chang also knew it well, so of course they should take a bite. Then he set a time and place to see Huiyu, and when it was finalized, Duan Hongfang led Duan Zewu away with satisfaction.
As soon as Duan Hong and Duan Zewu went out, Hui Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Being stared at like this all the time makes it uncomfortable for anyone. This third cousin is either not sensible and curious about his cousin, or he has something, and this matter is related to himself. But I had never crossed paths with him before, so what could I do?
Hui Yu couldn't figure it out, and she forgot it, anyway, they couldn't stay in the northwest for a few days, and what was going on would be clear immediately.
Because it was a funeral meal, there could be no other programs, and everyone dispersed after eating.
Chang left Huiyu behind.
Since he promised Duan Hong to get along with Huiyu for a few days, Chang had to tell Huiyu a few words: "Your fourth uncle and your mother's brother and sister have a deep relationship, and they will definitely touch the scene when they see you." You should also comfort your fourth uncle, don't patronize and talk about your mother's old things, if you and your fourth uncle are too sad, and another one is unwell, your father and mother's soul in heaven will also be heartbroken. ”
Hui Yu thought to herself, Chang was afraid that she would talk too much, but in fact, she really couldn't talk much, and she didn't know anything if she didn't say anything, she just wanted to beg for a living in the hands of Changfang, so she wouldn't stupidly anger Changfang for the sake of a foreign house thousands of miles away. So he nodded and replied: "Hui'er hasn't remembered many things since she woke up, if the fourth uncle asks about her mother, Hui'er doesn't remember, will the fourth uncle be unhappy?" ”
Chang's eyes lit up, but he forgot about Huiyu's amnesia, he couldn't remember better, and he didn't need to prevent Huiyu from talking about Duan's affairs with Duan Hong, so he said: "Your fourth uncle will only pity you more, how can he annoy you?" If your fourth uncle really wants to know about your mother, I will arrange for the old servants who used to be with your mother to see your uncle. ”
This is naturally the best, even if the people of the Duan family hear any rumors at that time, the Chang family can't doubt it. Hui Yu smiled and said, "I know that my aunt is the most considerate of me." ”
Chang's advice was finished, and he was tired for a day, so he let Huiyu go back.
Fang's mother had been waiting for Huiyu in Baihuayuan for a long time.
Fang's mother came to the northwest with the Duan family, and her feelings for the Dingguo Mansion are still very deep. Knowing that Hui Yu saw Duan Hong and Duan Zewu, he couldn't wait to ask about the situation.
As soon as Huiyu came back, Fang's mother personally waited for her to change her clothes and eat tea, and asked, "Has the girl seen the fourth uncle and the third young master?" The fourth uncle should be in his early thirties, and he thought that he was a teenager when he sent his wife to the northwest. ”
Hui Yu also wanted to know about Duan Hong and Duan Zewu's situation, so she was prepared when they met in the next few days, so she asked: "Mom also knows that I haven't seen my fourth uncle and third cousin since I was born, or my mother will tell me about them, or I will have something to say when we meet." ”
Fang's mother was also happy to tell Hui Yu about the old things of the Dingguo Mansion, and said: "Madame has three brothers and one sister, and the fourth uncle is the youngest brother, and he has played the best with Madame since he was a child. Madame loves those flowers and plants, and the fourth uncle always has a way to buy flowers and plants for Mrs. to raise in the garden. That year, the lady was going to marry far away, and the fourth uncle was sad for a few days, and asked the grandfather and the old lady why they married the lady so far. In the end, he was punished by Grandpa Guo and closed the door. It was released two days before the wife got married. When the lady died, the fourth uncle must have been very sad. ”
Since he has such a good relationship with his mother, why have he seen them for more than ten years, and he came to the funeral when everyone is gone. Feelings have to be dealt with, after so many years, how deep can the fourth uncle still have for his mother? That is, to mourn the death of a loved one.
Hui Yu thought and said: "The fourth uncle is sad about the death of his mother, and he also pities me for losing my mother at a young age, and plans to accompany me more in the northwest in the past few days." ”
Fang's mother was very happy to hear it, in her opinion, it was a good thing for Huiyu to be close to her grandfather's family, although the Chu family would not ignore Huiyu, but it was good to have one more Dingguo Mansion to worry about, besides, Huiyu had not yet discussed marriage, if she could let the fourth uncle help each other in the capital, marry in the capital, and return to the old lady, it would be great.
Fang's mother then said again and again: "The girl should be close to the fourth uncle, after all, it is your grandfather's family, although we haven't seen each other for so many years, but the blood is connected, the fourth uncle and they must be concerned about you." ”
After speaking, he thought about it and continued to speak: "Although the eldest lady of the Hou Ye will not ignore the girl, if the girl is loved by the fourth uncle, they will also take care of the Dingguo Mansion when they take care of you in the long house in the future." Moreover, if the fourth uncle can help you find a proper marriage in the capital, the old slave can be regarded as worthy of his wife. ”
Mother Fang thought about herself so much, Hui Yu's heart couldn't help but be touched, and said: "Mom's heart for me to protect me, I will definitely keep it in my heart." It's just that the mountains and rivers of Dingguo Mansion are far away, even if I have an urgent matter here, it is far away and the water cannot solve the near fire. ”
Mother Fang's heart moved: "It would be great if the girl could go to the Dingguo Mansion with the fourth uncle." Although Mrs. Hou Ye is the uncle and aunt of the girl's relatives, in the end, they are separated, and it is always unjustifiable to live in the long house or the other two rooms. But if you go to the Dingguo Mansion, first, the Dingguo Mansion has not yet been separated, it is your grandfather's family that is properly placed, and secondly, the old lady is still alive, with her, everything can be decided for you. ”
When Huiyu heard this, this would become her granddaughter's refuge in her grandfather's house, and she would become a cousin. How embarrassing is the title of Miss Cousin, if she pleases her aunts, it's easy to say, if she is disliked by her aunts, even if she has the support of her grandmother, she is still lonely.
But if you stay in the other three rooms, it is not appropriate. It was originally divided, and then went to live in another house, and there was no silver in the public to support himself, and it was not suitable for any family to support himself. And if the private property of the fourth room is given to the head of the house where she lives, Hui Yu feels that it is not feasible, and if she has no money, she can only look at other people's faces and beg for a living.
