Chapter Twenty-Five: Family Troubles
I haven't been back to the suburbs for a long time, and this time Meng Yu decided to go back and have a look before leaving, so that Chen Yipin and them could settle down. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
I have to say that the air in the suburbs is more suitable for idlers like Meng Yu, in this deceitful Tang Dynasty, he doesn't know whether he should enter the office, but the old man told him before leaving, don't enter the office, he remembers, so he doesn't dare to enter the office easily.
His affection for the old man is like that of a grandson to his grandfather, and he treats him as a relative, so he naturally has to listen to his words.
Meng Yu brought a lot of chickens, ducks, fish, eggs, or some daily necessities to Chen Yipin's wooden house today, but he didn't see Chen Dazhuang, so he entered directly.
"Uncle? Neither? ”
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Chen Yipin and Liu quietly discussing things in the house, and it was not easy to disturb them, so he put his things away, walked to the side and scooped a sip of water to drink.
"Da Zhuang?"
When Liu heard the sound, he thought that his son was back, but when he looked back, he was stunned and said, "Yu'er, you are back......"
Meng Yu was stunned, I don't know why, he has always had a special feeling for Liu, as if she was his mother, but she was not the feeling of being a biological mother.
He bowed earnestly and said, "Auntie, I'm coming back to see you, I've been a little busy these days, and I haven't come back to see you, I'm really unfilial!"
"Unfilial", this time it is not only said by parents, for close to elders, this word can be used, Meng Yu did not come back for more than a month to see, he felt a little indebted, so he said that he was "unfilial".
"Yu'er..."
Chen Yipin immediately helped Meng Yu up and said, "You kid, aren't you back?" To be honest, your aunt and I miss you so much that we thought you weren't coming back from the city! ”
The sentence "I thought you wouldn't come back in the city" made Meng Yu's heart sour, Chen Yipin and the Liu family were afraid that they would have treated him as their own children a long time ago, so they were reluctant to let him go.
His heart sank, and he said secretly: It seems that I will come back to see their two elders more in the future, after all, they are over half a hundred years old...
"Uncle, aunt, I will come to see you often in the future!"
Meng Yu smiled bitterly, this trip to Goguryeo was still a little reluctant, but at least there was a great certainty that it would succeed, and he suddenly said: "In a few days, I'm afraid I'm going to Goguryeo, don't worry, you two elders, I'll be back in a year at the latest!"
"It's twenty ingots of gold, take it!"
After speaking, he took out a money bag, put it on the decayed wooden table, and looked at Chen Yipin and Liu very seriously.
"So much..."
Liu's heart tightened, she always felt that Meng Yu seemed to be arranging the aftermath, and felt a little inexplicably uncomfortable, she looked at Meng Yu and said: "Yu'er, this is too much, this is 100,000 taels, I am afraid that we will not be able to use it up in our lifetime, we can't ask for ......"
Chen Yipin also smiled faintly and said: "Yu'er, we know that you are filial, but we really can't ask for it, we are all half of our bodies in the ground, and this money is just something outside the body..."
Meng Yu was stunned and didn't know what to say.
He has been going for many years, if something happens to Chen Yipin and Liu, he will definitely feel guilty for the rest of his life, so he has to make arrangements.
"Where's Da Zhuang?"
Meng Yu said: "Uncle, aunt, what about Da Zhuang? Don't you think about it? He's going to stay in this suburb in the future? ”
"I don't know if you don't want to go, or do you think I'm an outsider? Anyway, I've always treated you as a relative......"
Meng Yu said this sentence ruthlessly, in fact, he knew that the Chen family regarded him as his relatives, but Chen Yipin and the Liu family just didn't accept the 100,000 taels, and he could only provoke the two elders.
"No, no, no!"
Liu Shi was a little confused, and said: "Don't think so, we are just ......"
She couldn't speak, looked at Chen Yipin, signaled to him, and let him speak for himself.
Chen Yipin smiled and said, "Since this is the case, Yu'er, then we will accept it, if you want to use the money in the future, you will come back and get it!"
Meng Yu was stunned, relatives? Affection? Family? But so be it!
"No need, uncle!"
Meng Yu was very happy that Chen Yipin was able to accept the 100,000 taels, and said: "I still have more than 700,000 taels, don't be polite to me, since you don't want to go to the city, then you will build a tiled house, feed chickens, ducks and fish, and when I come back from Goguryeo, I can also have a good time!"
"Hahahaha, yes! Woo..."
The three of them talked and laughed, but as a woman, Liu always felt that Meng Yu had something to hide from them, but she was so happy today that she didn't pay much attention to it.
She went to prepare wine and good food, and she had to practice it for Meng Yu in advance.
And Meng Yu was sitting there chatting with Chen Yipin, and the two were also talking and laughing, and they looked happy.
"By the way, uncle, I didn't see Da Zhuang today, where did he go?"
"Went to the fair?"
Meng Yu felt very strange, Chen Dazhuang basically didn't leave the suburbs, and he didn't see him today, I'm afraid there was something important to go out.
Chen Yipin said with a smile: "That stinky boy went out on a blind date, so he won't come back today!"
Blind date? Oops,! I just reminded him last time, and I arranged it for him so quickly, yes, it's worthy of a feudal society of all evils......
"Oh."
Meng Yu smiled and asked, "Da Zhuang also has his own marriage, I don't know where I am?"
Meng Yu was a little lost, in this Tang Dynasty, he knew so many women, Ru Su? Gentleman's face? Changle? Fang Yuzhu? Ji Muya? Xia'er? Yurong?
It's unlikely, right......
"Don't worry!"
Chen Yipin smiled and said, "My son-in-law is so heroic, naturally he can marry a daughter-in-law, don't worry!"
"Da Zhuang, this kid is stupid, if he doesn't arrange it for him earlier, I'm afraid he will only be a single!"
I'll go...... Da Zhuang is your own ......
Meng Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and then nodded yes.
………
Palace.
"Princess?"
Yu Rong stood aside, very respectfully reported the news she had received to Changle, and said, "I heard from Fei Min that Your Majesty has promised you to Meng Yu!"
"It is said that Meng Yu presented the peerless Three Treasures, and he wanted to persuade Goguryeo to integrate into the Tang Dynasty, and His Majesty put forward conditions to become your concubine!"
This news was asked by Yu Rong personally to Fei Min, although Fei Min is a Tang Sword Saint, but he is a little embarrassed about women, so he doesn't say this thing all at once.
"Oh?"
Princess Changle sat in front of the piano and said, "He is so bold and dares to go to Goguryeo, which impresses me..."
I didn't expect him to do what he said, he values commitments so much, so it seems that he still has a trace of merit, hehe...
"yes!"
Yu Rong didn't expect Meng Yu to do what he said, and her complicated attitude towards him changed a little, and said: "Also, that wide-sleeved Liuxian skirt was bought by the Lanling Xiao family, a total of 2.2 million taels!"
What the? Such a sky-high price?
"Really? It makes sense, after all, it's unique in the world! ”
Changle was a little disappointed in her heart, she also wanted the wide-sleeved fairy skirt, but she was frugal on weekdays and didn't have much savings, and the last time she gave Meng Yu 500,000 taels, she almost ran out of oil.
So she could only sigh.
"And besides, he told His Majesty..."
Yu Rong was stunned for a moment, and didn't dare to continue, for fear that her princess would be angry.
Meng Yu's words were too explicit and shameless, and she didn't dare to tell Princess Changle, for fear that she would be angry.
Princess Changle was a little curious, and said, "What did he say?"
Yu Rong was stunned for a moment, and said tremblingly: "He said that he and the princess are in love with each other, and they are privately determined for life!"
"What?"
Princess Changle was slightly angry and said, "This shameless black charcoal! Look at me if I can't clean him up in the future! ”
Yu Rong trembled and didn't dare to say more.
………
Meng Yu sneezed and thought: I'll go! Who's thinking about me? Could it be Miss Fang?
He was happy in his heart, thinking of Fang Yuzhu's little jasper girl, and his heart was upset.
Soon he had eaten and hurried back to the city.
