Chapter 61: The Bitter Mandarin Duck
After taking care of the funeral of Lu Yixiang and his wife, Yu Ting fell seriously ill due to excessive sadness and exhaustion, and Yu Rong waited carefully on the side.
"Yurong, you're tired these days, so you don't have to come over to serve me every day." Yu Rong entered the house with the medicine bowl, Yu Ting quickly stood up and took the medicine bowl handed over by Yu Rong.
Yu Ting has been getting better in the past few days, recovering some of his spirit, and seeing that Yu Rong is getting haggard day by day, he is very sorry in his heart.
"Young Master Yuting, you are tired for the aftermath of the old lady, I should serve you, besides, Sister A Xia is married, and there are few servants in the house who can be used. I see that there is no one to serve you but me. ”
"Yurong, you have such a good heart." Yu Ting was full of gratitude to Yu Rong.
Yu Ting drank the medicine in one gulp and handed it back to Yu Rong. Yu Rong used her hand to pick up the medicine bowl, and Yu Ting took advantage of the situation to squeeze Yu Rong's hand.
"Young Master Yuting." Yu Rong shyly wanted to withdraw her hand, but was pinched tightly by Yu Ting.
"Don't call me young master, call me Yu Ting. My aunt promised you to me before she died, Yurong, you promised. ”
"But it's still in mourning." Yu Rong lowered her head and said.
"When the mourning period is over, you will marry me, okay?"
Yu Rong looked at Yu Ting's expectant gaze and nodded silently.
Qiu Lian saw Yu Rong at the door and smiled with satisfaction.
After the mourning period, Yu Ting and Yu Rong's marriage was in full swing.
Picked an auspicious day of the zodiac, and the Lu Mansion put up lanterns and feasted guests from all over the world. Yu Ting, wearing a festive red robe and horse coat, stood at the door and waited for the bride's sedan chair to welcome the guests. After a while, firecrackers rang out, suona sounds, gongs and drums were beaten, and an eight-lift sedan chair slowly came from Lufu. The sedan chair landed, and Yu Rong was dressed in a phoenix crown and xiaxia veil, and was supported by the fat aunt to enter the Lu house. The whole street was packed with onlookers, and Lychee Bay hadn't been so lively in years.
After entering the guest hall, the celebrant of the wedding begins to officiate at the wedding.
"I have invited the witness, Mr. Zhuang Xiqing, a local squire, to give a testimony for the marriage."
The respected old Mr. Zhuang Xiqing walked forward wearing a pair of reading glasses, took out a pre-prepared marriage statement from his coat pocket, and read it in a loud voice.
"The marriage of the two surnames, a contract, a good relationship forever, match the same name, look at the peach blossoms on this day, the room is IKEA, the melon is long, and the Erchang is blazing. I would like to take the covenant of the white head, and write to the Hongjian, so that the alliance of red leaves will contain the mandarin spectrum. This certificate!
The guests applauded and celebrated.
Mr. Zhuang walked up to Yu Ting: "Virtuous nephew, congratulations on holding the beauty." “
Yu Ting hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Mr. Zhuang, for your love." “
The officiant proceeded to officiate at the wedding.
"Worship heaven and earth." Yu Ting and Yu Rong bowed to the door.
"Two worship the high hall." Yu Ting and Yu Rong bowed down to Qiu Lian.
"Husband and wife worship each other." Yu Ting and Yu Rong worship each other.
"Let's go into the cave."
Surrounded by the guests, Yu Ting and Yu Rong walked into Yu Ting's bedroom.
In the cave room, Yu Ting lifted Yu Rong's hijab, looking at Yu Rong, who was full of anger and bursting, Yu Ting couldn't help but hug her tightly.
"Yurong, you are finally willing to marry me, I waited for you so hard."
"Young Master Yuting......"
"From now on, you are no longer allowed to call me young master, I am your man, your husband, you are my wife, my inner man. You are no longer someone else's girl, you don't have to serve others anymore, you are the mistress of this family, and you should let others serve you. “
After Yu Ting finished speaking, he shouted to the door: "Biliu, red leaves." “
"Hey, here we are." Two girls in their twenties walked into the house.
"Biliu, Hongye, this is your young grandmother, in the future, the two of you will serve the young grandmother, Xiao'er, Ming'er, the two little young masters and Miss Yin'er."
"Yes."
Biliu and Hongye hurriedly wanted to help Yurong widen her clothes, but Yurong was startled and hurriedly retreated.
"Go out, you all go out, I don't need you to serve, if you want to serve, you should go and serve Yu Tingshao......"
Yurong immediately realized that she had said something wrong and swallowed the word "master" back.
"Okay, you two go out first." Yu Ting waved his hand at Biliu and Momiji, and the two maids withdrew.
After Biliu and Hongye exited the door, Yurong lowered her head timidly.
"I, I'm not used to being served by others."
Yu Ting smiled: "Yurong, I don't force you, but don't refuse, slowly you will get used to it." ”
Yu Rong nodded shyly.
Yu Ting looked at Yu Rong stupidly, and then unbuttoned Yu Rong's jacket......
Early the next morning, Yu Ting and Yu Rong went to say goodbye to Qiu Lian.
"Mother, Yurong and I are here to greet you." Yu Ting and Yu Rong immediately knelt down to greet Qiu Lian.
Qiu Lian pulled Yu Rong up from the ground with a smile: "Yu Rong, from now on, you will be the daughter-in-law of our Lu family, I know that you have no father and mother since you were a child, Ruqin's sister-in-law treats you like a daughter, she entrusted you to Yu Ting before she died, I believe Yu Ting will treat you well, I don't have anything to give you this daughter-in-law as a mother-in-law, but you have to keep the things in this box." ”
Qiu Lian said, handing over a beautiful rosewood box on the table to Yu Rong.
"Mother, what is this?" Yu Rong asked Qiu Lian curiously.
"Back then, Yu Ting's father was killed by a bomb when he buried this box in the yard."
Yu Rong opened the box with a solemn expression. It was full of yellowed paper.
"These are some of the Lu family's ancestral prescriptions. Yu Ting's grandfather used to be a royal doctor, leaving some secret recipes, although Yu Ting's father followed the eldest brother to do business, but in fact, he likes to study some prescriptions, the neighbor around him has a headache and brain fever, backache and leg numbness These small problems will come to him, and he can be regarded as half of Langzhong. Therefore, when Yu Ting's grandfather broke up, he gave these secret recipes to Yu Ting's father. When the Japanese bombed Guangzhou that day, Yu Ting's father wanted to bury this box underground in order to save these ancient recipes from being blown up by the Japanese, but he never expected that he would lose his life for it. As soon as Qiu Lian said this, her nose was sour, and she hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
"I'm afraid I can't afford such a precious thing." Yu Rong was a little frightened, and returned the rosewood box to Qiu Lian.
"You are now the young grandmother of our Lu family, this thing should be kept by you, so that Yu Ting's father can also look underground." Qiu Lian still stuffed the rosewood box into Yu Rong's hand.
"Yurong, when Mom speaks, you can take it, keep it well, and pass it on to the children when they are older." Yu Ting nodded at Yu Rong and motioned for her to accept it.
Yurong nodded. took the wooden box from Qiu Lian's hand.
At this time, Xiao'er, Yin'er, and Ming'er all walked in.
"Good morning, Daddy." The three children knelt down in unison and kowtowed to Yuting.
"Get up. Come, from today onwards, you have to change your words, you can't call her Aunt Yurong, you have to call her mother. ”
Xiao'er and Yin'er immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Yurong: "Mother." ”
"Hurry up, hurry up." Yurong pulled Xiao'er and Yin'er up.
"Mother." Ming'er also followed the example of Xiao'er and Yin'er in a milky voice, and kowtowed to Yurong.
"Little master, don't kneel to me." Yurong picked up Ming'er.
"Yurong, didn't your aunt tell you before she died, so that Ming'er would recognize you as her mother?"
"But Ming'er has a mother, and the young grandmother and the young master will always come back one day."
"Yulin and Shuxian have been gone for almost three months, and there has been no news so far, and their lives and deaths are uncertain." Yu Ting's face showed worry.
"The young master and the young grandmother are rare good people, they will definitely be able to come back safely."
"We also hope that Yulin and Shuxian can be safe, but sometimes the will of heaven is unpredictable, and my aunt entrusted Ming'er to us at that time, just to prepare for the worst. Ming'er is Yulin's only bloodline, and only when it is entrusted to us, uncles and aunts will be at ease. ”
"I know, I will, no matter what disaster happens, I'll pull Naru'er to adulthood."
"Thunder Dad, it's better to do this, let Ming'er's younger brother call Niang Rong's mother, and his own mother is called Xian's mother." Xiao'er gives Yu Ting and Yu Rong ideas.
"You're clever." Yu Ting touched Xiao'er's little head, his eyes full of smiles.
"I think it's good, although Yin'er and I don't have a father and mother, but we have Ting Dad, Lin Dad, Xian Ma and Mother, we are much more blessed than other children. When we grow up, we will be filial to all of you. Xiao'er said seriously, impressing the adults present.
"Well, Xiao'er is really filial." Qiu Lian admired Xiao'er a lot.
"Brother Ming'er, you can call her Mama Rong." Yin'er walked up to Ming'er and commanded Ming'er like a young lady.
"Rong's mother." Ming'er screamed milkily as she kowtowed three times to Yurong.
Watanabe learned from the newspaper that Lu Yuting had married Yurong as his wife, and he was so angry that he threw the newspaper into a ball. Although he knew three years ago that Yurong would become Yu Ting's wife, he always imagined that he would still have hope, hoping that his birthday and Yu Rong's birth date might be wrong, or maybe the fortune teller miscalculated. As long as Yurong doesn't marry one day, he has hope, and he and Yurong will still be destined to be people.
But what happened to Lu Yixiang and Lu Yulin, father and son, made him feel farther and farther away from Yurong, and now that Yurong has officially become the young grandmother of the Lu family, his illusions are completely shattered.
Watanabe was drinking alone when Yamada came in.
"Watanabe-kun, you're drinking again, why this time?"
Watanabe handed the torn newspaper to Yamada, who smoothed it out and looked at the report on it.
"I remember the last time you drank alone because you didn't agree with this Yurong girl, and today you drank it for the sake of Yurong girl. Unexpectedly, a girl from China will be so fascinated that you can't extricate yourself. Watanabe-kun, I really didn't expect you to be an infatuated species. ”
"But no matter how infatuated I am, Miss Yurong won't give me a chance."
Watanabe hung his head in frustration, tilted his neck, drained the wine in the glass, poured another glass from the jug, and wanted to continue pouring it, but was grabbed by Yamada's wrist.
"Watanabe-kun, you have to cheer up, what can't we soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire can't get? Not to mention a girl, even dozens of cities. Just a girl, let a big Zuo hide in the room and drink stuffy, Watanabe-kun, where is your guts? ”
"But I'm afraid that my destiny will not be violated. If Yurong and I don't get along instead of being together, will we be thundered by the sky? ”
"Providence? I don't believe in providence at all. There is a saying in China that 'things are done by people'. Destiny is in your own hands, not in the hands of heaven. ”
Watanabe smiled bitterly, tilted his head, and drank the wine in his glass.
