Chapter 302
As the news of Ye Minshu's madness spread, Yuqing Palace gradually faded out of people's sight. Even if Ye Minshu was re-crowned as a prince, it would be useless.
A madman, even with the title of a prince, is still a madman, and there is no longer the slightest value in political investment.
Since the emperor met the old lady Yang once, it actually came out of the palace that the emperor wanted to reactivate the rumor that the old lady wanted to reactivate, everyone was skeptical, and the only good thing was that there was no more excerpt to attack the Yang family.
The year was thrilling, and in February, the situation slowly stabilized. The wedding date of the second young master Chengye and Miss Zhang's family has also arrived. The eldest lady went to see Yuxin once since she was sick, and her condition worsened after she came back. At this time, he couldn't get out of bed, so he had to ask the second wife to preside over Chengye's marriage.
The second wife didn't want to take over this mess, but the old lady spoke, and she didn't dare to disobey the old lady's order.
She took over half a month early, but found that the eldest lady was almost not ready for anything. She expected that she would neglect her concubine's marriage, but she was so sluggish that the second wife was amazed.
The marriage of the young couple was scheduled for the eighth day of the second month, and the bride's dowry was carried into the door on the first day, which was completely incomparable with the grandmother's ten-mile red makeup, only forty lifts, Yulan did not go to see it in person, but she sent Xiaoyue and Xiaoyu to Yang's house to watch the ceremony. Xiaoyue came back and said to her: "Even among the forty dowry, at least ten of them are false. ”
Yulan doesn't pay much attention to these, the old lady is still in good health, and the Yang family is still early. The second grandmother will never lack food and clothing when she marries, what she is worried about is the character of the second grandmother. After all, the second grandmother is the eldest master's favorite, and no one knows what her character is.
If he marries back a troublemaker, the Yang family will already be full of contradictions, and it will be even more peaceful in the future.
The next day was the right day, Yulan got up early in the morning and had breakfast with the prince, Yulan asked: "Today is the day of the second brother's wedding, do you have time to go with us?" ”
Ye Yichen said: "Today I made an appointment with the secretary of the military department and a few adults from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, you go first, I finish talking about business, if I can go in time." You sue me and my father-in-law for a crime! ”
Yulan got up and put on his cloak and sent him out: "If you don't have time, you won't use it!" Daddy won't blame you! Ye Yichen smiled and stretched out his long arm to hug her. We're all gone, and we're left alone! ”
Yulan smiled and pushed him to leave: "There are so many maids and wives at home!" Don't worry about it! Ye Yichen was very concerned about Sister Zhu'er, and he had to tell him again and again every time he went out.
After sending Ye Yichen away, Yulan returned to Nuan Ge to see her daughter first. When I entered the warm pavilion, I saw Ye Minwen lying on the head of the bed and playing with a rattle to play with Sister Zhu.
Sister Zhu has been six months old, she looks white and chubby, she is very happy, she is very happy by Ye Minwen's rattle, she looks at Ye Minwen with a pair of big black eyes, and she is about to grab the rattle in Ye Minwen's hand with two small hands. It's just that I can't reach it.
Mother Mu of the nurse stared at the side with her big eyes open and unblinking, Sister Zhu is now able to crawl, she is very lively and active, she is not honest when she stays there, and she can't leave people for a moment.
"Mother Princess, Mother Princess!" Seeing Yulan coming in, Ye Minwen stuffed the rattle into his sister's chubby little hand, and ran over to pull Yulan's sleeve: "Sister is having fun, can we take my sister to my grandfather's house to sit down!" ”
Yulan touched his head: "My sister is still young, I have to take a carriage when I go out, the bumps are very hard, and it's cold outside, so we won't take my sister with us." Are you ready? Are you dressed? "The second young master Chengye is Ye Minwen's uncle, Yulan called someone to ask Mr. Meng for leave yesterday, and was going to take him to Chengye's wedding.
"I've already changed my clothes, do you want me to do this, mother?" In the morning, I listened to the incense and changed his clothes. Yulan saw that he was wearing a big red five-blessing birthday robe, neatly tied, very satisfied, and nodded, "That's good!" ”
He also instructed: "After a while, I went to my grandfather's house, met my cousins and cousins, had a good time with them, and didn't fight?" ”
"I know it!" Ye Minwen replied loudly: "My father explained to me yesterday. ”
Yulan smiled and asked, "Then what did your father say?" ”
Ye Minwen said: "Father is the same as you said, tell me to get along with my cousins and cousins, as well as my uncles and aunts, don't fight with them, if I fight, I can only win and not lose!" ”
Yulan: "......"
How could Ye Yichen teach children like this!
The mother and son were talking, and Sister Zhu was having a lot of fun over there. I got the rattle, shook it twice, and seemed to feel a little struggling, so I put the rattle into my mouth. Yulan hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the rattle over: "Little ancestor, that can't be eaten!" "When the child grows up to such a big age, he bites and eats whatever he takes.
Sister Zhu is very possessive now, what is in her hands, and if she wants to take it back, don't even think about it, this time the rattle was snatched away by Yulan, even if she was a mother, she didn't give face at all, and she cried as soon as her mouth was flattened.
Yulan originally planned to go out this way, she didn't want to go too late for her mother's marriage, but she couldn't just leave when her daughter cried, so she had to pick up her daughter and pat her on the back while coaxing her.
Finally, my daughter fell asleep.
When she took Ye Minwen into the carriage and came to the Yang Mansion, the Yang family had already had many guests. Here is the fifth wife who came out to greet her in person, and the two greeted her affectionately, Ye Minwen stepped forward very obediently and shouted: "Fifth uncle and grandmother!" ”
The fifth wife looked at him and praised with a smile: "I have grown taller again, and I am becoming more and more sensible!" So he took the mother and son to meet the eldest lady first.
Today is a good day for the second young master's wedding, but the eldest lady has no festive look on her face. The eldest lady's face was sallow, and she seemed to have aged a lot after not seeing her for a few days, and Yulan found that her hair was a lot grayer. It can be seen that Yuxin's incident hit her really hard.
She couldn't say a few words to Yulan, and she was tired, so she said: "Today is a good day for your second brother, and I won't keep you more."
Yulan also got up and said, "Then mother has a good rest, and I will come to see you when I am free!" ”
Out of Yiningju, Yulan asked the fifth wife on the side: "Why does my mother's illness look worse and worse?" ”
The fifth lady said worriedly: "Sister-in-law has been coughing up blood for the past few days...... The doctor said that the family should prepare everything that should be prepared! ”
"What?" Yulan was stunned, but he didn't expect the eldest lady's illness to be so serious. Even the old lady is still in good shape. Why did the eldest lady run out of oil and the lamp died?
The fifth wife smiled and said, "Maybe the imperial doctor just told us just in case!" ”
Yulan only felt confused for a while. The fifth lady said again: "Our third young master hasn't decided on a marriage yet, in case ...... is " In case the eldest wife dies, the third young master will have to keep filial piety for three years, and the family affairs have been delayed, not to mention, and even the imperial examination will not be examined.
In another three years, Chengzong will be twenty years old. It's okay to get married at this age, but it's a pity to miss the imperial examination again. Yulan has always felt that the eldest lady is a little to blame for getting to this point, but even for the sake of the third brother, she can't watch it, she thought about it and said: "I'll go back and beg the prince, ask him to recommend a few good doctors to my mother, I hope my mother can save the day!" ”
The fifth wife sent Yulan to the flower hall for hospitality, and went to greet other guests, although the daughter-in-law who married today was not the son of the fifth wife, the fifth wife was also half the master, and she was also too busy to touch the ground.
There were already a lot of people sitting in the flower hall. The Yang family is very low-key this time, but there are not a few old in-laws after all, and when Yulan came in, she was already sitting in the Yingying Yanyan in the flower hall. Yulan greeted the ladies and ladies of the families who didn't know each other one by one, and then found a place to sit down.
The eldest girl, the second girl, the fourth girl, and the sixth girl, all of them were present. The ninth girl belongs to the master and is helping the second wife to greet the guests. Everyone sat together, with children and children, very lively. As soon as Ye Minwen came in, he played with his little cousins and little cousins. He looked very happy. Each child was followed by a group of maids, and the adults were all in front of him, and Yulan went with him.
On the contrary, the fifth girl, the sister of the same mother, was not allowed to come out because she lived in the palace and could not come to attend the wedding of her brother-in-law.
As soon as she sat down, Yu Mu took her hand and smiled, "You're here!" Yulan was a little embarrassed and said: "Sister Zhu'er had a little situation before she went out, so she came a little late." ”
Yumu smiled kindly, but Yulan found that she was just smiling forcefully, with a sad face in the corners of her eyes, presumably seeing the appearance of the eldest lady, and she was concerned. She is different from Yulan, the eldest lady is her mother after all.
The second girl, the fourth girl, and the sixth girl greeted Yulan one by one.
Yulan asked Yumu: "How is my little nephew now?" ”
Speaking of his son, Yumu's eyes flashed with a real smile. "He's fine, he can eat and sleep, and he's grown up a lot this time. But it's not as lively and cute as your sister Zhu! "After leaving the confinement, Yumu came to see Yulan several times, and every time she came, she brought a car of things to Sister Zhu.
"Hey! I'm having a headache now, this child can just crawl, and she can't stop for a moment, and she can't leave people for a while, if it weren't for the fact that the few maids and women around her are capable, I have to make her tired to death! I don't know who Lu Dao is so lively and active? ”
Yu Fei quipped: "Who else can you learn, it's naturally the prince." The prince has been on the horse for half his life, and his physical strength must be excellent, and my little niece must have followed his father! ”
Although Yulan doesn't like Yufei, she never snubs her when she meets her on weekdays. Several sisters are married and have children, and now they don't have to worry about having no topic when they get together, and they can't finish talking about children. Instead, the rain lotus who has not yet married was left empty.
Yulian was supposed to go out with Yuqing to welcome guests, but she was too shy, and she was a newcomer, so the fourth wife asked her to accompany a few aunts and grandmothers in the flower hall, and the aunts and grandmothers were all well married, and now they have a good relationship with them, and they will definitely be of infinite use in the future.
Seeing that Yulian was left out in the cold, Yumu, the eldest sister, smiled and said: "Look at us, just talking about this, the sixth sister is still a big girl who has not married, change the topic!" ”
Yulan quipped: "The sixth sister is precisely because she has not yet married and had children, so she should listen to this topic, you will also be a bride in two months, today take a good look at how the second brother married his sister-in-law, and save yourself from being blind when you get married!" The crowd laughed and made fun of her.
Yulian's whole face turned red, even the roots of her ears were red.
The marriage of Yulian and the second son of Huichuan Bozhao is scheduled for April this year, and the time is a little tight, but Yulian will be nineteen years old after the New Year, and she can't afford to delay it anymore, and it is reasonable to catch up with the wedding.
The sisters were talking and laughing, and the auspicious time had arrived, and firecrackers rang out outside. They are self-conscious, and it is not easy to go to the door to see, in fact, several people are a little itchy in their hearts, because no one has ever seen the second grandmother! After a while, Yuqing came in and reported: "Big sister, second sister, fourth sister, sixth sister, seventh sister, second sister-in-law has already entered the door, and she is worshipping in the hall with her second brother!" ”
Yulan saw that she was sweating so busy that she pulled her to sit down beside her: "Don't be busy talking, drink tea first to moisten your throat!" "Yulan has always liked this innocent and cheerful ninth sister. He picked up the teacup and shoved it into her hand.
Yuqing picked up the teacup and drank it all, stuck out her tongue and said, "Sister Seventh is still good to me!" ”
Yujia and her are sisters, afraid that she will offend other sisters by her words, so she hurriedly helped her make up: "When you see your seventh sister, you forgot your own sister?" ”
Yuqing is also very clever, "How dare I forget the second sister!" The rest of my sisters are very kind to me, and none of them dare to forget! ”
Everyone laughed together, and naturally they wouldn't hate Yuqing because of such a little thing.
Yulan asked, "Have you seen what the second sister-in-law looks like?" ”
Yuqing said: "I didn't see it with a hijab!" ”
"Poof!" Everyone laughed.
Yulan smiled and took Yuqing's hand and said, "Wait for the bride to enter the cave room, let's go and see the bride together!" ”
Yuqing's little face fell, of course these married sisters can go to see the bride, but she can't be a girl who hasn't left the cabinet. When everyone saw Yuqing's expression, they all covered their mouths and smiled, and Yulan also felt relieved when he looked at it.
estimated that the bride had entered the cave room, and Yulan really took the eldest girl, the second girl, and the fourth girl to see the bride together.
Yulan and Yujia walked in the head, and she said softly: "Big sister, why is she losing weight again?" ”
Yu Jia lowered her voice and said to her: "The eldest sister has just taken over the middle feed of the Ji'an Hou Mansion, and she has to be distracted to take care of the little nephew, she can't be busy with things, so naturally she wants to lose weight?" ”
Yulan was stunned when she heard this: "The eldest sister took over the middle feed of the Hou Mansion?" What about Mrs. Lu? ”
Yu Jia smiled coldly: "This New Year's affair was done by Mrs. Lu Er, and as a result, there were several big mistakes, even the three livestock and six animals used to worship the ancestors had problems, and even the old marquis was very angry. After the New Year, the eldest brother-in-law personally proposed to the old lady that he wanted to hand over the feedback back to the eldest sister. Second Mrs. Lu was originally unjustifiable, but now that the eldest sister has given birth to a grandson, the old lady is no longer partial to her maiden niece, and it is difficult to say anything. ”
Wen hinted that the eldest sister took the initiative to shirk, she thought that the eldest sister was pinched, but she didn't want the eldest sister to pretend not to understand her hint this time, and still took over the middle feed of the Hou Mansion.
Yulan thought about it for a while and understood. Mrs. Lu Er has presided over the Zhongfeng for many years, how can there be a problem with such a major event as sacrificing ancestors, it must be Lu Zhongheng who has done something from it. Only the owner of the Hou Mansion like Lu Zhongheng can unknowingly do things under the eyes of Mrs. Lu Er, Yumu doesn't care about the general affairs for many years, she just has this heart, and I'm afraid she doesn't have this ability.
Yu Jia said: "Second Mrs. Lu is still dragging her feet and refusing to hand over the account book, she has been a powerful and blessed person in the Hou Mansion for so many years, and I want to see how she ends up when the time comes!" ”
The Marquis of Ji'an has been good at business for generations, and has accumulated for several generations, and the Marquis of Ji'an has a lot of wealth, and it is extremely famous in the entire Beijing. Mrs. Lu Er is in charge of the inner house, how can she not reach out to make money while sitting on Baoshan?
The money in the inner courtyard was all allocated from the secretary room of the outer courtyard, and Mrs. Lu just wanted to change the account book, afraid that she would not have so much energy to buy off all the old marquis and Lu Zhongheng's henchman in the secretary's room.
Therefore, once Yu Mu took back the right to be a housekeeper, he almost took the handle of the second wife into his hands. She has been bullied and oppressed for many years, and today she can finally raise her eyebrows again.
Second Mrs. Lu's good life, I'm afraid it's coming to an end.
There were already many people standing in the bride's house, and when they saw the four aunts and grandmothers coming to see the bride together, they came up to say hello. They are relatives of each other, and Yulan has the strength to take a look at the bride after coping with it.
