Chapter 535: Heartache
In the next few days, Du Yunxun concentrated on painting, while Fan Anyang had to be distracted from housework, and the emperor was going back to Beijing! All the courtiers are also going to follow the big move, so she has a lot of work, okay?
She didn't have time to comfort Du Yunlei, and she didn't have time to care about Du Yunfang, even Xiao Niannian's class stopped, and the picture that was originally scheduled to be drawn could only be placed first.
Du Yunxun went to find Fan Anyue, the two brothers picked a day, took someone to measure Du Fu's business, the two of them pondered for a long time, and finally found a satisfactory vacant land, spent two days to make a sample, and then went to the master with the sample.
Yan Chi is also studying new painting skills, although Fan Anyang has already returned what she has learned to the university professor, but at least she has seen more paintings than others, Yan Chi is a great painter, and he has the mentality that he will not learn and ask if he doesn't understand new things, so he was very happy to see the two of them, and looked behind them, and he didn't see the female apprentice, and he was in a slightly bad mood.
"Why didn't Zhao come?"
"She's busy!" Du Yunxun put the sample in front of Yan Chi, "Master, the apprentice wants to set up a studio in another industry, this is the sample, you can always help take a look at it and see if there is anything wrong." ”
Yan Chi lowered his head without saying a word, "Why did you suddenly think of opening a studio?" Well, it's very important to paint this light, the doors and windows should be larger, do you want to be a dragon underneath? And this window, do you want to use glass inlay? If there is a way, take the largest piece of glass with them! Don't be a little angry with small pieces, you see, my window, I didn't expect it at the beginning! ”
After saying a few words, they began to complain, Du Yunxun and Fan Anyue glanced at each other, this is not the Yao family's other business, but the Yan family's studio in Xishan. Yan Chi's property in his early years has not been lived in for a long time, and even he almost forgot that he had this studio.
Yan Yun still remembered that when she followed the emperor to Xishan, she sent someone to take a look. Yan Chi didn't remember it until this time, and he followed the steward without saying a word, and he didn't want to stay as soon as he came! Without him, the small households here are free and easy, unlike the red tape of the Yao Du Command Mansion, which is annoying to death.
"It's ...... To be built on the West Mountain? ”
"Yes, I'm going to go back. This is where people will be grounded, and there will be a studio to use in the coming year. ”
Although Du Yunxun didn't say it explicitly, Yan Chi had already learned from Fan Anyue that the emperor went to Du's mansion to see paintings in the courtyard of their husband and wife. If the husband and wife want to continue to study on the way to painting, it is necessary to set up another studio.
"You're going to break ground in your house too?"
"The house should be a little slower, after all, there are pregnant women." It is about his father's heirs, if there is a case, people outside will definitely say that he is not filial and can't tolerate his younger siblings.
Yan Chi hesitated, but finally asked, "What's the matter with your stepmother." Isn't she pregnant with a child? How did you move to Zhuangzi to live? ”
Before calculating the marriage of his stepson three times and twice, and wanting to give his stepson a concubine, he only took the power of the house. was grounded, but this time she was pregnant but was sent to Zhuangzi to live.
"Madame, she has made big mistakes repeatedly, and when her grandfather saw that she did not change her nature, he asked her to send her to Zhuangzi to cultivate her self-cultivation, so as not to give birth to a child like her."
Fan Anyue pouted beside him, he knew the inside story. Mrs. Du also wronged his sister twice for fake pregnancy, saying that she caused fetal gas twice. Ahh Obviously, there is no child in the belly, how can I move the fetus! She deserved to be sent to Zhuangzi.
That's what Brother Fuchang said. Are you okay? There will always be a day when the melon is ripe when she is pregnant with a child, and Mrs. Du will not be able to give birth to a baby at that time, but how can she explain it?
When Mrs. Du used this trick, did she think about it with her brain? Even a half-grown man knows that it won't work, why would she, an adult, make nonsense?
After Yan Chi read the sample draft, he pointed out a few inappropriate points, and the three masters and apprentices discussed it, Yan Chi couldn't help but ask Du Yun Xun'er to ask for a face, "Go back and help Ah Zhao a little, how old a child is, you have to take on the responsibility of a family, your stepmother is really, alas!" Don't mention her, anyway, as a husband, you have to cherish your wife more, but don't let Ah Zhao take on too many things at a young age, and he hasn't grown up yet! What can I do if I can't grow long! ”
Yan Chi loves female apprentices, and of course he also loves apprentices, and he doesn't want a few of them to leave their paintings behind because of miscellaneous matters.
Fan Anyue was on the side to help, "I heard it, brother-in-law, although my Ah Zhao is capable, don't push all the things on her." ”
Du Yun looked for his jaw and responded, "I know, I will help Ah Zhao share some things when I go back, and I will definitely not be tired of her." ”
When Mrs. Wan received the news that her daughter was sent to Zhuangzi for Qing repair, she was so angry that she smashed the tea bowl in her hand.
"Wasn't it good before? Why did you suddenly send people to Zhuangzi? She grabbed a grandmother who was sent to Du Mansion to wait for her daughter.
The grandmother was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly, and Mrs. Wan was very angry and threw her away.
"Where's Qingqing? The girl followed to Zhuangzi? ”
"No, I don't know that Qingqing offended Xiangye, he was pulled out and beaten, and then he was thrown out, no one knows whether he is dead or alive."
When Mrs. Wan heard this, she instructed her subordinates, "Go, bring me the young lady, they must know what their daughter has done!" ”
After a short time, someone came to report that the young old lady and her brother and sister-in-law were expelled from the Du Mansion by Mrs. Du for committing an accident!
"Something wrong? What did you do? Mrs. Wan questioned the subordinates who were sent back by Du Fu, and the subordinates shook their heads in panic, they have only been there for a few days, and they haven't even recognized anyone yet! was sent back, how did they know what mistakes Qingqing's Lao Tzu Niang's family had made.
"Madam, although Qingqing is waiting by the side of the second aunt and grandmother, her old son has always been working on Madame's dowry Zhuangzi." What can you do to get Mrs. Du out of the way?
"The second aunt and grandmother were sent to that Zhuangzi Qingxiu?"
"This ...... The slaves don't know. The servants bowed their heads and replied helplessly.
"You shit, you don't know anything! Come on, sell them all, and leave no one behind! ”
Mrs. Wan was so angry that she sent someone to Du Mansion to deliver the post, she wanted to ask Du Xiang, why didn't she get pregnant with the daughter of the Du family's heir, and An Sheng had a baby at home, but she wanted to send someone to Zhuangzi and Qing Xiu? Wasn't being grounded before enough? O poor daughter!
The steward quickly went to Du Mansion to post. Dufu's disciple took the post, and after asking for the intention, he stated the intention on a piece of paper, and after he was done, he let the steward see the painting. Then it was sandwiched into the post and sent it in, and the steward of the Wan family saw the matter and turned around to leave.
I didn't want to be stopped by Menzi's opening, "Wait, let's go." Bring this man back first. ”
The steward of the Wan family watched the two boys escort someone out, he looked at Du Fu Menzi in confusion, and the doorman smiled, "Speaking of which, this person and I are still walking together!" He is the prowess of all your families. I caused trouble before and was driven to Zhuangzi by Mrs. Wan. ”
Since he was driven to Zhuangzi by Mrs. Wan, how could he appear in Du Mansion, seeing that person with a blue nose and swollen face and a pig's head, the steward of the Wan family really couldn't recognize who this person was.
"Steward Zhao, it's me! Plums! "Because he was beaten badly, his speech was slurred and leaking, and the steward listened for a long time and still didn't understand what he was saying.
"What about this man! He has great powers. Our lady's fetus was diagnosed by him, God! He didn't study medicine and couldn't take the pulse, but he was able to diagnose our wife's joy. And that's what he did! The consultation fee is only five hundred taels of silver! ”
"No, no, how can there be so many! You talk nonsense, nonsense. The pig-headed man hurriedly argued, and Steward Zhao's face suddenly turned black as the bottom of a pot, and he remembered! There was a doorman in the family who complained to the chief manager because of the mother-in-law in the family. said that she didn't know how to get a windfall, and he didn't say anything when asked. She was afraid that her husband was defiling the gift sent by others, so she went to the chief manager to complain.
Actually, everyone understands. It was the wife of Namenzi who couldn't get the money from her husband, so she angrily complained to the chief manager to smear her husband, and when the lady learned about it, she was impatient to pay attention to it, so she drove the family to Zhuangzi out of sight.
Could it be that this is how the money in the hands of the man came from?
Steward Zhao took the man expressionlessly, took him back to the errand, Du Fumenzi sent Steward Zhao away, turned around and added a few sentences to the Wanjia worship post, sneered, and summoned the little girl, "Send it to the second young grandmother." ”
The little guy nodded, took the salutation and went to the second gate.
After Mrs. Wan listened to Steward Zhao's report, she immediately fainted in front of her, and when she woke up again, she cried bitterly, "What have you done with this nonsense!" ”
"Madam, the second aunt and grandmother are fake pregnant, so what should I do then?" Mrs. Wan's confidant asked.
Mrs. Wan wiped her tears and said, "Do you still need to say this?" It must not be born! Oh my stupid Mingyu! How to clear out the faint tricks! ”
"Madame!" The henchmen were afraid that she would cry too much, so they came up to persuade each other, "You say, do you know the old lady and son-in-law of the in-laws?" ”
This must be known! Otherwise, how could they send people to Zhuangzi?
"Then why don't they ......" Mrs. Wan suddenly understood, "I remember that my son-in-law has several concubines, and it seems that some of them are pregnant with children......"
"Hello Madam, remember." The henchman patted him.
Mrs. Wan's face changed several times, "Could it be that they want to force Mingyu to recognize those children born from cheap maids under their names?" ”
For Du Yunqi and Du Yunxun's brothers, whether it is Xiao Wan's younger brother and sister, or the younger brother and sister born by his aunt, they are actually the same, as Yuan and concubine, they already have more resources than the younger brothers and sisters born in the stepfamily or concubine's room, after all, they have already started a family.
Identifying the concubine in her name only affects a pair of children of the Xiao Wan family, and if they are recorded in the name of the mother-in-law, they have the right to share the dowry of the Xiao Wan family with Du Yunfang's brothers and sisters, and Mrs. Wan felt heartache when she thought about it.
Why should the children born to my aunt be divided among the property of her grandson and granddaughter? But can she go to Du's house to make trouble for this? What's the trouble? People didn't say anything, they didn't do anything. Moreover, it was her daughter Wan Mingyu who said that she was happy, no one wanted her to fake, and she deserved it if it was exposed, even if the Du family really wanted to treat her aunt's birth as Mrs. Du's, it was also done by herself, wasn't she so calculating?
Mrs. Wan saw through this, but she could only watch things develop? No, there must be a way, then... Let those aunts all slip tires! Anyway, it's not that they haven't had a miscarriage before, it's just that Mrs. Wan looked around at the servant women in the house, and all the people she had newly sent over had been sent back, and in the Du family, she had no one to use!
Reaching out and rubbing the corner of her forehead with a headache, Mrs. Wan gritted her teeth, and suddenly, her eyes fell on the ribbon around her waist, which was a gift from Du Yunlei......
Pregnant! (To be continued)
