Chapter 604: New Year's Reunion Two
Mrs. Cui Si moved from place to place, and finally squeezed out a place to settle the twenty-three mothers, but Cui Ye's nephew really couldn't squeeze in, especially when his eldest young master went out, he brought almost twice as many entourages as all the subordinates in the fourth room of the Cui family, even if Mrs. Cui Si wanted to arrange for him to live, his eldest young master did not want to be wronged.
Staying in the inn, although it costs more money, at least it is more comfortable than living in the house of the uncle, Cui Ye has lived in an environment where he has tried his best to suppress the uncle, and now the grandmother is still there, but because the Cui family is under her leadership, colluding with the pirates, she was also arrested by the officers and soldiers, although she was not convicted, but no one in the whole clan took her seriously.
It is said that the Cui family is a famous family and a family, but not to mention his generation, it is his father's generation, except for this uncle who was admitted to the official position, no one has been admitted to the official position.
His grandmother always said that if the fourth uncle didn't rely on nepotism, he wouldn't be able to be a Beijing official, and the eldest uncle always looked disdainful when they talked about this brother with his father.
The fact is that the sons of his grandmother and sister-in-law were all convicted of colluding with pirates, but the fourth uncle was only demoted, not removed from his post for investigation, and not sentenced.
Is this done by nepotism alone? If this is the case, why didn't the grandmother arrange such nepotism for the eldest uncle in the first place?
Cui Ye didn't dare to think deeply, and hurriedly left with his servants.
When Twenty-three Niang found out that he was gone, she jumped to her feet angrily and scolded endlessly.
Mrs. Cui Si stroked her forehead and said honestly. She really didn't know how to get along with the half-grown girl's family, "Twenty-three Niang, that's your brother, even if he doesn't have anything, you are a sister, how can you scold behind your back, and you don't stop scolding?" ”
It's okay not to say it, this one will poke a hornet's nest!
"What's wrong with me scolding him? If he's here, I'm going to beat him!" He promised my grandfather that he would let me eat and drink spicy food and enjoy all the glory and wealth. The result? Send me to Your Highness. He smeared oil on the soles of his feet and ran away, and when I became a member of His Highness, he came out again and scolded me for being shameless, which was really laughing to death! ”
Cui Twenty-three Niang put her hands on her waist. Towards Mrs. Cui Si, Cui Ye fell behind. "Obviously, he has that heart. I was afraid of being exposed, so I avoided it early, thinking that everyone was blind and couldn't see it! Hum! Phew! And the face to scold me. What a joke. ”
"Originally, His Highness and I were inseparable for a moment, but he wanted to sabotage and coax His Highness back to Beijing, and then laughed at me for not being able to hold people in the palm of my hand."
Mrs. Cui Si's face was numb when she heard this, this girl is too arrogant, right? This is the little lady raised by the famous family of Kishu Cuifu?
A little later, Cui Shiming returned home and learned that Cui Ye had brought the granddaughter of the sixth uncle into Beijing, and this niece was also related to His Royal Highness Eleven's delay in staying in Kizhou.
"What does this sixth uncle do? Why is his granddaughter like this? Mrs. Cui asked curiously.
"Sixth uncle?" Cui Langzhong shook his head, he had been away from his hometown for a long time, and he didn't know much about these relatives.
"Anyway, I'm detaining Twenty-three Niang at home now, you hurry up and repair the book and go back to your hometown, we really can't manage this matter, and we can't call the shots, but if we really let it go, our family may be implicated."
Cui Langzhong shook his head, "Cui Ye dares to do this, I'm afraid that the old lady is behind her back, even if she repairs the book back, she doesn't care, and we don't care about her." ”
"How good is this!" Mrs. Cui was so worried that she was about to cry, this is a hot potato, she can't hold it and throw it out.
What a headache!
After Cui Ye was settled, the first thing he did was to ask someone to send a letter to the eleventh prince, and the little guy who took the errand ran to ask the innkeeper guy, and was ridiculed by the guy.
"This young master, the princes who haven't left the palace and opened the palace all live in the palace! You want to send a letter to the Eleventh Prince? That can only be sent by someone, do you have a familiar guard? Does it matter if you want this letter? Ask the guards to deliver the news, it may have to be passed layer by layer, not to mention when it will be delivered, this money to dredge the joints will cost a lot! ”
The little guy was dumbfounded, he only had one or two silver a month, and the guy told him all this nonsense, so he asked him for one or two! The answer to the question is even more expensive?
I went back to the steward for help with a sad face, and the steward was also stunned! After running errands for so long, he never wanted to send a letter to the palace, how did he know this rule!
I had to drag the little guy to discuss with the master.
Cui Ye was in a hurry to send news to the eleventh prince, and Cui Langzhong had a headache to detain Twenty-three Niang and prevent her from going out.
The eleventh prince in the palace had a very smooth life, and he was always worried that the emperor would punish him for delaying his errand, and he didn't want to just come back on the day he called him for questioning, and then neither scolded nor punished, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
The return of the eleventh prince and Princess An's newborn son all made Concubine Mei regain her spirits, and she sent the palace grandmother to visit Princess An and the little prince in the palace for three days, and she had to keep an eye on the needle palace bureau to cut new clothes for the eleventh prince and the new grandson.
Every year before the Chinese New Year, there will always be a lot of people to send gifts into the palace, in the past, Concubine Mei always asked King An to pick the first, and then sent the rest to the eleventh prince, now it is different, all the gifts are all picked by the eleventh prince, if before, he would be polite, leave some for the seventh princess, now, all his!
After returning to the palace, there was no Cui Twenty-third Niang's spicy little lady, but there were different types of beautiful palace maids such as gentle and delicate and lovely for him to choose, and there were different beauties every day, making him forget what night it was.
His absurd behavior naturally reached the ears of the emperor and queen a long time ago, the emperor frowned, and explained that the imperial dining room would make some tonic soup for the eleventh prince, but the queen sent the palace grandmother to pour medicine to the palace maids who were accepted by the eleventh prince.
The other concubines in the palace were happy to watch the play, and since someone stabbed this matter to Concubine Mei, Concubine Mei was angry. But the queen, as the master of the harem and the mother of the eleventh prince, is not wrong to do this, but Concubine Mei only died of a son, and this son only left a son behind her, she can't help but worry, the only remaining little son, in case he follows in his brother's footsteps that day, what should she do? He's not married yet!
Concubine Mei complained to the emperor and made the emperor happy!
"It's been a few months since King An passed away. The marriage of Xiao Jiu and Xiao Shi. The queen and Concubine Lan are looking at each other, won't you do anything? ”
"His brother is dead! Your Majesty, how can you let the queens and their marriages be handled by the Ninth Highness? ”
"It's just ten months of filial piety, you don't plan to do it now, when are you going to wait?"
Concubine Mei said sneeringly: "At least three years have to wait, right?" ”
The Emperor laughed angrily. "I don't know when the seventh child became their brother's son! Do you want his brothers to keep filial piety for him for three years? ”
Concubine Mei knew that she was speechless. Hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty. However, the emperor didn't have the leisure to listen to her cry that King An died unjustly and walked away.
In this scene, Van Amber was in the imperial study to draft for the emperor. So after witnessing the whole process, I turned around and sold it to his sister-in-law.
Du Yunxun is painting in the studio, Yan Chi plans to reopen the exhibition after the year, the last exhibition temporarily changed tone, turned into an auction, although their paintings were sold at a high price, but after all, it was far from Yan Chi's original plan, so he planned to open another exhibition next year.
"King An actually died not unjustly at all, who let his mother, his grandfather, and his father-in-law first get up and want to assassinate King Huai, can the Yang family fight back? I don't want to think about it, Fuyang Hou Duo Baby's grandson! Van Amber said sarcastically.
Du Yunxun lowered his head and picked up the pen, and said without raising his head: "There are not many treasures!" Otherwise, how can he tolerate his granddaughter running away from marriage and slapping him in the face? King Huai is also a good person, he didn't quarrel with the Yang family, he just didn't have much contact. ”
"What can he do? His concubine is also the granddaughter of his grandfather! If you really fall out, how do you get along with the concubine? Fan Amber shook his head, got up and walked to Du Yunxun's seat, looking down at the landscape painting he was painting.
"You are using ink brushwork, but you are using oil painting to express xiàn?"
"It's just a try, the penmanship is not proficient, and I have to practice again." Du Yunxun squinted at the painting.
Fan Amber said, "You don't have to worry about writing and painting all day long, you have to take care of other things." ”
Du Yunxun looked up puzzled, and Fan Amber snorted coldly, "I heard that your mother's roommates guarded and stole and colluded with your stepmother to take away your mother's dowry." ”
"Hmm."
"You're going to throw it at my sister?" Fan Amber asked displeasedly.
It turns out that the brother-in-law is unhappy that he threw the matter to his wife? "Ah Zhao said that she would wait until she sorted it out, anyway, my grandfather and father already knew, and the third brother of my family directly said that he didn't want his mother's dowry."
Fan Amber was stunned for a moment before laughing, "He is obedient, anyway, his mother's dowry is not much, and the extra ones are from unknown sources, so just give it up, your grandfather and they will look down on him because of this, and the share that will be given to him in the future will naturally not treat him poorly." ”
Du Yunxun sneered, "His sister didn't think so, Ah Zhao thought she was sad about her mother's situation, but people were distressed about the heads and jewels that flew away." ”
Fan Amber felt that this sister-in-law had been a little bitter recently, but thinking about it, he was relieved of what he had encountered, but he still had to remind him that it would be annoying to save too much bitterness.
Du Yunxun was nagged until his face was slightly red, he also knew that he had passed a little recently, and after being trained obediently, he sent his eldest brother away, and then went back to the room to find his wife for comfort.
Fan Anyang ignored him! She's busy! The New Year is approaching, and there are already so many things, and the dowry of the two mothers-in-law is added to clean up, and everything must be returned to its original place, which is easy to say, but it is really laborious to do!
But Master wants to open another exhibition after the year, which is really ...... There is also the auction building, Fan Anyang felt his scalp tingle when he thought about it.
When Du Yun returned to the room, Fan Anyang had not returned to the room, and Xiao Niannian was sleeping on the big kang in their room with Honghong in his arms.
"How do you sleep here?"
"Miss Niannian came to find the second young grandmother, the second young grandmother originally said that she would come back soon, and Miss Niannian said to wait here, but until now, the second young grandmother has not come back." Du Yunxun listened and nodded, let people accompany Xiao Niannian, and went to find Fan Anyang himself. (To be continued......)
