Chapter 304
Xiaoyue hesitated, a little like she wanted to say something.
Yulan said: "Just tell me if you have anything, why are you still hiding?" ”
Xiaoyue said at this time: "The slave maid heard some bad news in the Yang family. ”
Yulan frowned and said, "What's the news, why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”
Xiaoyue said: "It's really a bit unbelievable, the slave didn't dare to report to you indiscriminately." I heard that on the day when the second young master and the second grandmother had a round house, there was no blood on the Yuanpa. Now the subordinates of the Yang Mansion are quietly discussing this matter. ”
Yulan was taken aback and sat up directly, "Don't chew your tongue outside in this matter, so as not to spread the word that the reputation of the second grandmother will be ruined!" "For ancient women, the name was more important than life. What's more, Yulan is from modern times after all, and the first time of many people in Zhilu Dao is actually bloodless. But this is not to be said to others.
The second grandmother doesn't look like a worry-free person, but Yulan doesn't want to believe that she did something wrong with someone before she got married.
Half a month later, news came out from the Yang family that the second grandmother was pregnant.
Yulan sent someone to send some supplements over, and on the other hand, he called Xiaoyue over: "You go to the Yang Mansion to inquire, how is the relationship between the second young master and the second grandmother?" ”
Xiaoyue naturally understood that what Yulan wanted to ask was whether Chengye often shared sex with her second grandmother.
Xiaoyue came back from Yang's Mansion in the evening and told Yulan what she had heard: "The second young master goes to the second grandmother's room every night, and the second grandmother also lets you have time to see her." I heard that the second grandmother was pregnant, and the old lady was very happy to see it, and rewarded the second grandmother with a lot of things. "The old lady is old, and she looks forward to the birth of her grandchild, Yulan is understandable. The eldest grandmother is about to give birth, and the second grandmother is pregnant again, and the Yang family's heirs have a sign of prosperity.
It's a pity that Yulan always feels that the second grandmother's baby is a little wrong. Confusing the bloodline is a big crime, Yulan and Chengye's sister and brother are not harmonious, although Chengye is not as annoying as Yuxia, but he is a lustful and weak person, Yulan doesn't have a good impression of him, so she doesn't want to meddle in things.
Yulan thought that this was all for the gossip, but Xiaoyue came out again: "Now the relationship between the second grandmother and her mother-in-law is very ordinary, but she is very close to the fourth wife, and she is helping the fourth wife to persuade the eldest lady to let the princess give an extra 1,000 taels of silver to the sixth girl as a dowry." ”
"Why is the second grandmother so kind?" helped the fourth wife, an "outsider", to ask for a dowry from her mother-in-law, and only the second grandmother could do it if she lacked a string in her head.
Xiaoyue said with a smile: "I heard that the second grandmother received a set of pearl heads from the fourth wife, so she spared no effort to help her speak. "Now the Yang family really has everything to say, the eldest wife, the second wife, and the fourth wife are already at odds with each other, the eldest grandmother is smart and doesn't mix in the affairs of the elders, but the second grandmother doesn't know what Lu Dao thinks and follows her aunt and mother-in-law to fight in the ring, and now the house is very lively!
Yulan asked, "What did the eldest lady say?" "The eldest lady is not so easy to get along with, she is very prejudiced against Chengye, and if she is like the second grandmother, she will not save any face for her.
Sure enough, Xiaoyue said: "The second grandmother followed the fourth lady to find the eldest lady to talk about the sixth girl's dowry, and the eldest lady was furious without saying a few words, and the cup of hot tea in her hand almost splashed the second grandmother's body, thanks to a maid beside the second grandmother, who quickly helped the second grandmother block it." The eldest lady immediately grounded the second grandmother and told her to go back and copy the "Female Commandments" and "Female Rules", if it weren't for the second grandmother being pregnant, the eldest lady's punishment for her would definitely be more severe. ”
Later, the eldest lady called the second young master and scolded him, telling him to go back and discipline the second grandmother well. The matter of the six girls adding makeup is gone. ”
When Yulan heard that the eldest lady was so domineering, she knew that her condition had improved greatly, otherwise she would not have had such a mental attack.
The second grandmother stayed at home to raise the baby when she was pregnant, and she was grounded, so naturally she would not come to the palace as a guest again. Yulan was quiet for a while.
During this time, a major event also happened in the DPRK and China. It's triennial draft time again, and people's attention is all on Zhao Wang Ye Minyu. A year has passed for King Zhao to keep filial piety to the former princess. Facing Ye Minyu, who is most likely to inherit the throne in the future, all the major families in Beijing are gearing up and eager to try.
The emperor also wanted to point out a concubine to Ye Minyu, but he never thought that Ye Minyu had an excerpt by himself, which meant that there was a flood in Henan in March, and millions of people were displaced.
All of a sudden, the officials praised him, and the orthodoxy was no longer good at pointing out people to him.
The emperor originally wanted to take this opportunity to settle Ye Minzhao's marriage together, and let him go to the mansion and get married this year or next year. Ye Minzhao just found an excuse, "The fourth brother is not in a hurry, so I don't have to be in a hurry." The so-called orderliness of the young and the old, how can I, as a younger brother, get married before my brother. ”
Zhengtong wanted to hug the emperor and grandson as soon as possible, but unexpectedly, the two brothers each had a red face in their hearts that they couldn't let go.
The draft was pushed back.
In the blink of an eye, in April, the day when the six girls got married finally arrived. Huichuan Bofu sent someone to carry the dowry on the first day, the fourth master had no family background, and Yulian's dowry was only sixty lifts, that's it, and there were many false raises. Not only can it not be compared with Yulan, but even Yujia and Yumu are not comparable at all.
On the right day, Yulan took Ye Minwen to watch the ceremony, and when she arrived at the Yang Mansion, she first asked Ye Minwen to play with the children, and went to the bride's room by herself. Yulian has already cleaned up, the Yang sisters are all good-looking, in terms of appearance, she can be regarded as the upper middle among the sisters, she is tall, wearing a wedding dress on her body, soft and graceful, slim.
The house was full of laughter and laughter for a while, and was surrounded by a group of sisters and relatives to make jokes, but Yulian blushed and lowered her head, but the handkerchief in her hand was grabbed tightly by her, not so much shy as a little scared.
Marrying in this way and living in a completely unknown environment is something that everyone is afraid of. Yulan didn't know if the sixth girl had heard of some things about the second son of Huichuan Bo, if she had heard about it, I was afraid that she would be even more afraid.
When they saw her come in, they all stood up and saluted. Yulian also stood up: "Seventh sister is here." ”
Yulan walked over and grabbed her hand, "Sixth sister, you are so beautiful today!" ”
Yulian lowered her head shyly, blushed and said, "Seventh sister has won the prize!" ”
The little maid moved a chair and asked Yulan to sit down. Yulan saw that the eldest grandmother, the second grandmother, and several married aunts and grandmothers all came back. Everyone, you and I are teasing the bride to talk.
The grandmother had a frighteningly big belly and couldn't sit still. Yulan felt frightened when she watched it on the side, but Yulian was an empathetic person, and said, "If my sister-in-law is tired, go back and rest first!" ”
The eldest grandmother smiled kindly: "I, who is a sister-in-law, why do I have to send my aunt and grandmother out of the door." ”
"I know that my sister-in-law treats me well, but when I see my sister-in-law like this, I am really uneasy......" Everyone also persuaded together, and the grandmother saw that her tone was sincere, so she stood up: "Then I will go back and rest first, and when the child is born, I will go to Huichuan Bofu to apologize to the sixth sister." ”
The eldest grandmother returned to her yard, and a mother-in-law came in to return: "Uncle is here to greet her!" ”
Yulan heard the crackling sound of firecrackers outside. Everyone scrambled to stand up, and they all said that they wanted to go to see the groom, Yulan didn't want to go, but was pulled by Yujia to go over.
The hanging flower door of the main courtyard is closed, according to the custom of the wedding, the new aunt wants to enter the door, must suffer some embarrassment, outside the door is the groom official who welcomes the family, but inside is more lively than Yulian's new house.
Outside there was a banging on the door: "Open the door, open the door!" Don't miss the auspicious time! ”
The second wife's brother shouted triumphantly: "As long as you answer the riddle correctly, the master will let you in." If you can't answer, you have to give a big red envelope to open the door. "Brother Yan has always been smart and lively, and when his brothers and sisters get married, he is the most active.
Yulan watched from the side and laughed. Ye Minwen didn't know where Lu Dao ran out of, and his face was full of excitement: "Mother concubine, when the sixth aunt enters the door, I will also ask him for a big red envelope!" The children were so excited that they ran around the yard, and Ye Minwen was sweating on his forehead.
Yulan smiled and touched his head: "Well, when your sixth aunt-in-law enters the door later, you go and ask him for a big red envelope!" ”
Someone outside shouted, "No one as embarrassed as you, we've already answered seven or eight riddles correctly." Besides, this riddle you said is too difficult! ”
Brother Yan didn't know where to find the riddle from in the road, and he was obviously embarrassed by the people outside.
There was a lot of laughter inside. Brother Xian'er crossed his waist and said: "If you can't answer, just obediently stuff the red envelope through the crack in the door, and the master will let you in." ”
Someone outside shouted, "It's too hard! It's so hard! Change one! ”
The fourth master stood on the steps, and also felt that today's embarrassment for the groom was a bit too much. After all, it was his daughter who was married today.
He looked at Chengzu, Chengzu walked out and patted Brother Yan'er on the shoulder, "Okay, let's call someone to open the door, it's really an auspicious time to delay it any longer!" Brother Xian'er was not afraid of his father or mother, but he was a little afraid of the eldest brother of Chengzu, and muttered: "I can't guess such a simple riddle!" Then he commanded his men to open the door.
I saw a tall young man of about twenty years old walking in first, wearing a bright red auspicious robe, and looking dignified, just looking like Yulian was quite right.
Brother Huan'er rushed forward with a smile, "Sixth brother-in-law, although the door is open for you, the red envelope is indispensable!" ”
Zhao Ergongzi's face was full of gloom. He loves men but doesn't like women, he doesn't want to marry Yulian in the first place, and he was forced by his parents to submit to this family business. When I came to greet my relatives today, I was a little reluctant, and I was embarrassed to open the door for a long time outside, and there was a ghost if my face was good-looking.
Brother Xian'er stepped forward to reach out and ask for a red envelope, he was the time to change his voice, a male duck voice, but Zhao Ergongzi remembered this voice, just now he tossed for a long time and refused to open the door, which made him angry. He snorted coldly and said, "Who are you?" ”
"I'm your brother-in-law!" Brother Yan grinned, fearing that the world would not be chaotic, and stretched out his hand to ask for a red envelope.
Zhao Ergongzi's face sank, "I don't have your brother-in-law, get out of the way!" Stretching out his hand, he pushed Brother Yan aside. Brother Yan was defenseless, and he was almost pushed to the ground.
Ye Minwen followed next to Brother Yan'er, the little uncle, originally thinking that once Brother Yan'er succeeded in asking for a red envelope, he would also follow up to ask for a red envelope, and was startled when he saw Brother Yan'er suffering such treatment.
Brother Yan was furious: "What are you doing? ”
The so-called raising your head to marry your daughter, bowing your head to marry your daughter-in-law, and it is normal for your daughter to marry Naqiao, not to mention the happy day, everyone is just to liven up the atmosphere, and Brother Yan is not really lacking this red envelope. Zhao Er can also say that he can do it to Brother Ran, who is so much younger than him, but he is really a little too ignorant.
Everyone in the Yang family felt that their faces were hot. Zhao Er's this was tantamount to a slap in the face of the Yang family. Yulan thought of what Jiang had told him before, that Zhao Er had beaten Jiang's brother to the point that he couldn't get out of bed. Just looking at the fact that he can do it to a half-grown child like Brother Yan'er, I know that he is afraid that he has no self-control. has such a big temper, once it doesn't go well, maybe Yulian will also be beaten.
Yulan's heart sank.
A little guy who came with him couldn't help but secretly complain when he saw it, before he came, Zhao Er's father Hui Chuanbo told them thousands of times, today is a big day for the son to get married, no matter what, he must marry the bride home safely, and don't make any more moths.
They couldn't understand the young master's temper anymore, so they hurriedly accompanied the smiling face to compensate Brother Yan'er, "The young master of the in-laws is angry, our young master is also anxious to see the bride, and he is a little impatient, today is a big day, don't go to your heart, don't go to your heart!" As he spoke, he took out a thick red seal and handed it to Brother Yan'er.
Although Brother Yan is not very old, he loves face very much. didn't look at the little guy at all, only saw Zhao Er's arrogant expression, without the slightest intention of apologizing, he was annoyed in his heart, and threw the red envelope to the ground casually, and said with a "bah": "The master doesn't recognize you as a brother-in-law, and this red envelope is not uncommon!" ”
The little guy was so anxious that he went to pull Zhao Er's sleeve again and again, if the bride couldn't marry back today, the old uncle would have to break the legs of a few little guys.
But Zhao Er turned a blind eye to it completely.
Everyone looked over, and for a moment the entire inner courtyard fell silent.
Chengzu saw it clearly from the side and couldn't help but be angry. It's not that he feels sorry for his own brother, but he has never seen such an arrogant and unreasonable person, and now that Yulian has not married home, Zhao Er dares to treat her maiden brother like this, and when the door is really passed in the future, where will Yulian have a good life.
Chengzu is the eldest brother in the third generation of the Yang family, and now he has married a daughter-in-law, and the child is about to be born, so he is even more stable and dignified. Only the fourth master came out to see his son-in-law in person: "Fourth uncle, why is the uncle of the Zhao family so arrogant and rude, and his cultivation is so poor?" ”
Yulan also came over and said in a low voice: "Fourth uncle, I don't think this will work, if the sixth sister marries him, I am afraid that she will suffer a big loss in the future!" "Cheng Zu also has this meaning.
The two of them looked at the fourth master together, waiting for him to come up with an idea.
The fourth master was also sweating profusely, he never thought that the fourth wife would choose such a thing after thousands of choices. just remembered what happened to her daughter, after all, she was very weak-hearted, "My uncle is also a young man, and young people will inevitably have a bigger temper!" ”
Chengzu and Yulan couldn't help but shake their heads secretly, in front of the public, they can do it to their brother-in-law if they are married to their daughter-in-law, if there is no one, they may not be able to do anything, but marriage is the order of their parents, one of them is an elder brother, and the other is a younger sister, so they have no right to speak at all.
The fourth master had already figured it out at this time, no matter what, he would marry his daughter out of Lu first, and then drag it out, he had to smash his hands. While thinking about it, he said, "Quick, quickly lead my uncle to the hall!" ”
Brother Xian'er has been watching, this situation can't help but be very annoyed, seeing that the fourth uncle refuses to stand up for him, he "hums", turns his head and goes back to his study.
The little guy next to Zhao Er breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it, and when he saw the child, he gave out red envelopes, and the atmosphere suddenly became warm again. Ye Minwen wanted to ask for a red envelope with Brother Yan'er, but when he saw this, he drooped his head and returned to Yulan's side. Yulan took his hand and asked, "Don't you want red envelopes?" Why don't you go? ”
Ye Minwen said: "The sixth aunt is so fierce, I don't want his red envelope!" ”
Yulan sighed, she had reminded the fourth wife before, but the fourth lady didn't know what Lu Dao thought, and finally set up this family affair for Yulian.
Zhao Er was taken and went to the main hall proudly, the fourth wife sat on the Luohan bed, and someone guided Zhao Er to kowtow to the fourth wife. The fourth wife took a red envelope to him and said to him: "I will hand Lian'er to your uncle, I hope that my uncle will take good care of her in the future!" ”
Zhao Er agreed: "This is natural!" "Then he said;" It's not too early, so let's go back to the church with the bride as soon as possible! There was a bit of impatience in his tone.
Zhao Er's tone was not very good, the fourth wife's expression changed slightly, and she finally endured what she wanted to say. Thinking that after all, he is the son of his uncle, and his demeanor is more arrogant.
He ordered someone to bring the bride in, and Yulian entered the hall with the help of the bride. The head has been covered with a hijab. Zhao Er's gaze turned around her body, and then he took it back, and there was not much fluctuation between his expressions. Yulian knelt in front of the fourth lady and shouted, "Mother! Tears flowed down her cheeks.
The fourth wife also burst into tears, "Good boy, today is your good day, what are you crying about." When you marry into Huichuan Bofu, you must honor your in-laws and live a good life with Zhao Gongzi! After such a while, Zhao Er's face showed impatience again.
When the fourth wife saw the look on her uncle's face, she became more and more displeased, and she didn't want to say anything more, so she asked someone to help Yulian get on the sedan chair, but Yulian held her mother's hand and refused to let go, and the sisters persuaded her for a long time before she finally cried and got on the sedan chair. Zhao Er was already impatient, and when he saw that Yulian finally got on the sedan chair, he hurriedly arched his hand, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, and son-in-law will take a step." ”
Regardless of the unsightly faces of the people, they gave an order, and the drums in the courtyard rang out in unison, blowing and beating the ground.
The sisters have been sending Yulian out of the door, and they have all seen Zhao Er's performance today. The fourth master sighed on the side and said: "I finally married Lu, and if I marry Lu, I will live in peace!" ”
How did Yulan feel awkward when she heard this, the sisters glanced at each other, and there was a thick sadness in their eyes.
On the day she returned to the door on the third day, Yulan was not worried about the sixth sister, so she went to Yang's house early in the morning.
At the right time, the carriage of Huichuan Bofu came, and Zhao Er first took Yulian to the back to meet the old lady and the fourth wife of his mother-in-law. He still looks very arrogant, and he looks at people with his nostrils.
Yulan couldn't help but sneer secretly, this kid really doesn't know how thick the sky is, he is just the son of an uncle, not even a son, what is there to be arrogant. Don't say that you are the princess's concubine, and the emperor's Mrs. Anguo, even Yumu is also the court's Madame Hou, even if his son will come to Chuanbo, he will also behave in a proper manner.
If it weren't for the face of the sixth girl, I really wanted to teach him the rules.
is even more disgusted with Zhao Er.
sent Zhao Er away, and the fourth wife held a banquet in her courtyard to entertain her daughter, Yulan and other guests. Everyone asked how Yulian was doing in her mother-in-law's house for the past few days, and Yulian said with a smile: "I'm very good, and my husband treats me very well." My mother-in-law is also generous, and she doesn't want me to set rules in front of her! Everything is very good! ”
Mother-in-law is more important than her husband in a sense, and when she heard that Mrs. Huichuan treated her very well, everyone finally relieved half of their hearts.
However, although Yulian tried her best to hide it, the haggard look between her expressions could not be concealed from everyone.
Wait until the meal runs out. The fourth lady pulled her daughter into the room, sent the waiter, and asked anxiously, "What is he doing with you?" Didn't bully you, did you? ”
Yulian couldn't pretend anymore in front of her mother. Wow burst into tears. "In the three days since I got married, he, he hasn't had sex with me at all!"
