Chapter Ninety-Seven: Shrewdness
Yue's head lowered when she heard this: she actually wanted to keep the glory of the Hou Ye Yun Tianyou during his lifetime and let Yun Ke attack the lord, but she knew the complexity of the battle in the mansion, if the second master was alive, she would definitely not let go of the things that belonged to the second room.
But with the departure of the second master, the competition for a qiΔ is meaningless, and it is even difficult to guarantee that it will cause trouble to the children in the future, Yun Ke's selection of Wu Zhuangyuan is imminent, she doesn't want to make people get in the way because of this, but who will attack the knight, Yue's heart is considerate.
The eldest lord has a good character, but he rarely asks about the affairs of the inner house, and many times he listens to the eldest lady, and Sun Rulan can only do superficial work and likes to say beautiful things, but if she really wants to do something or help, she will push back and delay, and he always likes to pose as an eldest sister-in-law, "a bowl of water is flat", which is not good for the second room, therefore, if you let the eldest lord or one of his two heirs take the title, it is okay, but Yue's is not worried about Sun Rulan;
As for Sanfang Yuntianyang, she actually thought about letting him attack the knight, over the years, she has seen with her own eyes his care and love for the seventh girl, he really raised the seventh girl as a daughter, if the third master attacked the lord, it will inevitably "woo" his heart even more, but as long as she thinks of the third lady's heart like a snake and scorpion, Yue's family is like being poured down from head to toe by a basin of cold water, and her body and mind are full of cold to the bone, and she will break her mind;
So there is only one fourth master Yun Tiancheng left, not to mention the relationship with the second room, and he has not yet married, and there is no wife's room, so there is no worry about who will be biased in the future in the inner house dispute, and the other Zhou family has always favored the youngest son Yun Tiancheng, which can make the Zhou family let go of prejudice against the second room. At the critical moment, he will speak for the second room, and after weighing the two phases, Yue's family thinks that the fourth master is the most suitable.
Although now the marquis has also been temporarily recovered with the death of the party. The matter of the title is not yet clear, but if she stands up and shows her attitude at this time, she may be in the heart of the Zhou family, whether it is successful or not, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for the second room, anyway, no matter how the emperor decides, she has made it clear today. This is a place where the second lady is different from Sun Rulan and Fu Lianyin.
"Long live this matter is only adjudicated, and my daughter-in-law understands this." Yue's knowledgeable smile said, "I am saying a few heart-wrenching words to my mother, the fourth brother was most distressed by the fourth brother before his death, and the fourth brother and the second room also went closer." If he succeeds me, I can rest assured. β
Sure enough, when Zhou heard this, her heart was relaxed, and a gloomy wrinkled face gradually unfolded: she had always felt that Yue's was a person who knew the general situation, and after this incident, she became more and more convinced.
The joy in his heart was evident on Zhou's face - he had thought that he was coming to spy on her attitude towards this matter, or to ask her to help keep the title or something, so the conversation was a little lukewarm at first. There is a match that does not have a match, and now listening to Yue's expression, his words are sincere. The wariness of the Yue clan is not so heavy, and it has become enthusiastic.
"The relationship between Cheng'er and the second room, how can I not know it for my mother," Zhou also smiled happily, "You don't know, every time he comes here, he has to talk about the second brother and the second sister-in-law." It seems that I'm insignificant as a mother. "Zhou's is quite a bit of a tasty addition.
"That's the fourth master's temperament," Yue Clan echoed with a light smile. "There are some words in his heart that he can't say in front of you, he said it to us, saying that it is very unfilial to always make his mother worry about him, and the most painful thing is that he has not been able to get married, and he is very ashamed that he did not let you hold his grandson."
When Zhou heard this, his brows furrowed, his eyes froze, Yue's knew that he had touched his mother-in-law's "heart disease" again, and he felt guilty, and hurriedly comforted him: "I'm sorry, mother-in-law, daughter-in-law is talking too much, just because I know my mother's heart for the fourth brother, I said the original words, and I ask my mother to forgive me." β
"I don't blame you," Zhou looked over the second lady's shoulder, and muttered distractedly, "It's all fate, it's ......fate."
"Mother, don't worry," Yueshi hurriedly got up and approached to comfort, "My daughter-in-law believes that there is no unsolvable grudge in the world, and she will be able to see the moon as soon as she sees it." β
"I hope," Zhou raised his eyes and glanced at Yue, and then lowered his head again to whisper, "I can see Cheng'er marry before I die of old age." β
Yue's sudden sadness came from it, she held one of Zhou's shoulders, and her vocal cords choked up:
"Yes, mother, I will definitely ......"
"Second lady, it's late, let's go back to the room to rest, I'm tired of being a mother." Zhou said listlessly.
"Yes, mother, my daughter-in-law will help you go back to the room and lie down and leave." Yue's said that he was going to support Zhou's.
Zhou gently pushed Yue Ziyun's hand away, and said with a light smile: "No, I will leave by myself, you can leave first." β
The second lady didn't insist anymore, finished saluting, and left.
Fu Lianyin had already slipped out of Beiyuan one step ahead, and she didn't know how she walked back to the third room - if the fire in her heart could be set on fire, she was afraid that the Guogong Mansion would already be on fire! She couldn't listen to half of Fang Cai's conversation, and staggered back to Xiyuan - she didn't expect that Zhou and the second lady would "wear the same pants", and she still had a glimmer of hope to seek support, which was funny to think about!
She paced back and forth in the bedroom with a black face, and finally sat on the chair, Sen Ran's eyes stared at the tea bowl in front of her, and the placket in her sleeves was also confiscated: what a second lady, she grasped the old woman's mind tightly, she only knew that she would endure before, but now she knows that she is so black-bellied and shrewd, I can't figure out that the "adoptive condition" was what she came up with.
Yueshi, I will not tolerate you! Fu Lianyin glared at her hatefully, and then with a "snap", a tea bowl fell to the ground. The maid who heard the movement hurriedly pushed the door in, saw a piece of debris, was first taken aback, and then saw that the third lady's face was not very good, so she didn't dare to ask, so she could only squat down to "clean up the mess".
"Get out of here!" Fu Lianyin shouted at the maid like crazy, "I don't need you now!" β
"But Third Madam, if you get a piece of this placeβ"
"Get out!" Fu Lianyin bit out a word from between her teeth.
The maid was startled, and thought, didn't the third lady eat gunpowder tonight?! hurriedly threw away the fragments of the tea bowl, ran out as if running, and brought the door......
As soon as Yue Ziyun walked out of the Begonia Pavilion, Yuntian City walked out from behind the screen-
"Mother, look at you, if you force me to hide behind the screen, if the second sister-in-law knows, how chilling it should be."
"It's okay, with the shrewdness of the second lady, I'm afraid that I will guard against it in my heart," Zhou took a sip of the water handed by Yun Tiancheng and said secretly, "I also want to hear what she thinks of Cheng'er." β
"I didn't expect the second sister-in-law to think of asking me to take the title...... Yun Tiancheng didn't seem to hear Zhou's words, and said in a voice as if talking to himself, "Among the brothers and sisters-in-law, the second brother and the second sister-in-law treat me the best." β
"Cheng'er didn't expect that it was 'calculated' for the mother," Zhou pulled his lips, and said with a calculating smile, "The second master suffered bad luck, the second lady with a young son and a daughter, I felt that it was difficult to support it alone, and Ke'er was not as weak as the crown, if he let him attack the lord, I am afraid it would be difficult to convince the public, but whether it is to let the big house or the third room attack the lord, the second room will not have a good time in the mansion in the future, so she thought of the fourth room closest to the second room, Cheng'er, you," Zhou added with admiration, "This Yue's is indeed shrewd." β
"I see," Yun Tiancheng nodded in an epiphany, his gaze fixed on the dark bluestone bricks outside, and said softly, "But mother, no matter whether or not I can attack the knight in the end, I am grateful to my second sister-in-law, at least she regards me as a relative rather than an enemy." β
"I still don't know about this?" Zhou Shi grabbed Yun Tiancheng's hand, looked up at him, and sighed, "What the second lady said here before, for the mother is to listen to every word in her ears, it's rare." β
"It's a pity that the second brother went too unjustly, and the two children are so young," Yun Tiancheng was suddenly sad, he couldn't forget how the sky collapsed when he first learned that Yun Tianyou died of illness, "I don't know what will happen to them in the future?" β
"Don't worry, the Yue family is still the second lady of the Guogong Mansion, and Ke'er will have a chance sooner or later," Zhou couldn't see that his beloved son cared about others more than her, and said in a deep voice, "Besides, isn't there still us?" β
Yun Tiancheng originally planned to tell the Zhou family that he wanted to move to the grange where his second brother lived before his death, but when he saw his mother's expression and demeanor when he spoke, he couldn't help it: his mother would never allow him to do this.
"What my mother said," Yun Tiancheng smiled lightly, "We can take care of his wife and children for the second brother, it's late, the son resigns, and the mother is also asked to rest early." β
Zhou couldn't talk a little more, so he smiled reluctantly: "Go ahead." β
Yun Tiancheng bowed his head and took a few steps out of the threshold, Zhou looked at his emaciated back and gradually moved away, and there was a sense of desolation and loneliness in her heart, she retracted her gaze, and suddenly the whole person sank into the chair, as if she had no strength anymore and was speechless, for a long time, the maid who stayed in the back room came out and carried her into the room and served her to sleep.
Early the next morning, the sky was a little cloudy, gray, as if sprinkled with ink and not dried paper, this is a weather that people don't want to go out, can't lift the strength of traveling, Yue's mother's family - sister and brother came to the second room of the Guogong Mansion as guests, to visit Yue's mother and son, in fact, since Yun Tianyou was unfortunately killed, the mother's family has come more diligently than before, but this time, I heard my sister talk about last night's events, are a little unbelievable.
"Sister, so, are you really planning to give this title to 'Xian'?" Sister Yue Ziting looked at her sister playfully while munching on melon seeds and asked.
"No, I just want to 'do more than less'," Yue's calm reaction, "However, this is only my early statement, and I can't decide anything." β
"Yes, this matter depends on how the emperor decides, and it is very possible if he makes an order to let his nephew attack the knight," Yue Bochao drank wine with peanuts and said to Yue Ziyun, "Sister, in fact, you don't have to accept your fate so much, your brother-in-law is gone, but you still have your mother's family, I see who dares to bully the second room." β
Yue Bochao was in the middle of the year before last, and he worked in the Hanlin Academy, and he spoke with confidence. (To be continued) R655
