Chapter 135: A Glimmer of Life
Yu Jinhang's heart was overjoyed, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, making his whole person bright, handsome and dazzling, and looking forward to it.
The gifts in the baggage were all bought by him, only the sachet was made by him, and the stitches contained his thoughts about Jiang Cheng'er, and he secretly packed a very special thing in it.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Cheng'er picked the sachet at a glance, which shows that they still have fate.
Yu Jinhang was elated, "Miss Jiang, you put the sachet on and I'll take a look, or I'll help you put it on." β
Jiang Cheng'er really couldn't stand his excessive enthusiasm, and was so annoyed by him that she had to hang the sachet on her belt first.
Yu Jinhang smiled happily and told seriously, "Miss Jiang, please cherish it." β
Jiang Cheng'er nodded hurriedly, just wanting to send him away quickly.
Yu Jinhang wanted to say something, but at this time, the servants of the Yu Mansion came to ask the young master to return to the house quickly, saying that the master was angry.
Looking at the back of Yu Jinhang leaving in a hurry, Yu Jincheng laughed, as soon as the farce of divorce and marriage proposal was staged at the big set, he sent someone to rush back and send a letter to his father.
My father is a nostalgic person, and he doesn't live in the mansion in the capital, so he has to go back to the old house in Fengping Town.
caused a group of children to follow him, from the bustling capital back to the remote countryside, there was not even a place to have fun, and they were bored to death all day long.
In recent years, he has done a lot of good deeds of repairing bridges and paving roads, and his prestige in his hometown is very high.
's father loves face, and he can't tolerate anything that discredits the Yu family.
Today, Yu Jinhang withdrew from the marriage without his father's consent, and in front of the villagers, he went too far.
Divorce when the Zhou family was prosperous, it's better to say something. Now that the Zhou family has fallen, Zhou Jinzhi has become an orphan girl, and retiring from marriage at this juncture is tantamount to falling into a well, and the Yu family will be scolded for being ruthless and unjust.
Father will never allow his prestige and the reputation of the Yu family to be damaged, and when Yu Jinhang goes back, he will definitely be scolded by his father.
Sure enough, as soon as Yu Jinhang arrived home, he ushered in Master Yu's sharp reprimand.
Master Yu's face turned pale: "You unfilial son, you went out for a few days and came back with a bad illness." Without your father's consent, you withdraw from the marriage on your own initiative.
When the Zhou family was in trouble, you betrayed your promise, fell into the well, and publicized it in public, making everyone know about it, and making the Yu family lose face. β
The first time Yu Jinhang saw his father being so angry with him, he was shocked, stunned, and said in a low voice: "Father is angry, Rong'er explains." β
"What else do you have to explain, I thought you had been doing business outside for many years and had been calm and sensible, but I didn't expect you to be so reckless and ignorant.
I thought you were a worry-free person, but I didn't expect you to poke such a big basket with one poke, how can you have the face to walk on the street after you let your father. Master Yu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
A woman dressed in gorgeous clothes, wearing pearls and emeralds, and a shrewd color between her eyebrows and eyes, walked over quickly, she was Yu Jincheng's mother, known as the second lady.
She picked up the tea bowl on the table with both hands and respectfully handed it to Master Yu, her face full of concern.
"Master, you drink saliva first to quench the fire." The second lady said meaningfully, "Jin Hang is the eldest in the family, and he is young, so he is naturally pampered." He is not sensible, you teach him slowly, don't be angry with your own body and bones. β
Master Yu took a sip of tea, and the second lady stroked his back and comforted him softly.
Master Yu was furious: "He is still young, he is now bigger than me, he thinks his wings are stiff, and he doesn't take me as a father in his eyes."
Listen to what he has done, he faced the people in the market, first divorced Miss Zhou, and then proposed to the village girl surnamed Jiang.
He is clearly a negative man who broke his promise, abandoned his fiancΓ©e, and married a new love, and he will be scolded to death by someone poking his backbone. β
"There is such a thing!" The second lady was shocked, and her expression was very exaggerated, as if Yu Jinhang had stabbed the sky down.
After a while, she said seriously, "Jinhang, Aunt Rong is fair, this is your fault." Parents have always been in charge of marriage matters, how can you not discuss with your father and withdraw from the marriage yourself.
Although you are usually away from home and do not do your filial piety by your father's side, your aunt knows that you are not an unfilial child. You're just confused, so ask your father for your sin. β
Yu Jinhang lowered his head: "Father, my son acted recklessly and made you angry, it's wrong." I just want to cut through the mess quickly and break off the marriage with the Zhou family as soon as possible. β
"You are here to cut first and then play, to force your father to agree, and to force your father to be an unkind and unrighteous villain." Master Yu was furious.
The second lady acted as a peacemaker, and persuaded this and that smoothly, so that Yu Jinhang quickly apologized to Master Yu.
Yu Jinhang didn't want to make his father angry, he couldn't help it, he might have a chance to cut it first and then play.
If he doesn't act first, when he returns home this time, his father will definitely be kind and let him marry Zhou Jinzhi, who has become an orphan girl, into the mansion.
Is it reckless, there are some, but he only wants to please Jiang Cheng'er, and he can't care about anything else.
Acting simply is his style, and in the absence of both, he can only choose what he wants the most, preferring to bear the infamy.
Under the persuasion of the second lady and Yu Jinhang's reparation, Master Yu's mood stabilized a little.
He sat on the Taishi's chair, panting, and admonished Yu Jinhang.
"Keeping promises and valuing faith is our good family style in the house. When Zhou's father was in office, he respected me a lot, personally came to the door with a gift, and mentioned that he was willing to marry my family.
I didn't have to save face at that time, although I had never made a marriage, it was also an agreement that must be kept. β
Yu Jinhang calmly argued: "Father, that kind of verbal agreement is just a joke between the two of them, and it doesn't count." β
Master Yu scolded angrily: "Nonsense, what my father promised to do is counted, and a spit is a nail." The reason why our Yujia's business is getting bigger and bigger is because of integrity. β
Yu Jinhang fought hard: "Father is angry, not to mention Zhou Jinzhi's character, her son's personality really can't get along with her." I beg my father to fulfill his son and cancel the marriage contract.
You can write a letter to explain the truth and send it to the border gate, and I think Father Zhou will also understand and agree. β
Master Yu changed color suddenly: "You can say it, her parents are in prison, and the most uneasy thing is her daughter." I thought that by entrusting her to our Yu family, they would be able to feel at ease.
After a letter of resignation from their father's marriage, they were still unstoppable, and they were worried every night, which was equivalent to asking for their lives. You cold-blooded son clearly wants to make your father a murderer. β
Yu Jinhang gave a salute, neither humble nor arrogant: "Father, when you say this, my son is very frightened. The current situation of her parents is very pitiful, but they can't shoehorn her into me. I can help her with some money, and I don't have to put my own lifelong happiness on the line. β
"Bastard, Miss Zhou is neither deaf nor dumb, not stupid or stupid, why are you unhappy when you marry her? She has no relatives now, and the only one she can rely on is our family.
To be a man is to speak of conscience, and to pull others when they are in danger, not to kick them. Now not only can we not quit our relatives, but we must hurry up and marry her into the door.
I will order you to go down today, let the government prepare as soon as possible, and choose an auspicious day for you to get married. Master Yu directly made a decision.
Yu Jinhang hurriedly refused: "No, I don't agree, I resolutely don't marry Zhou Jinzhi, what I like is Miss Jiang." β
Master Yu was furious, stood up, pointed at Yu Jinhang's nose and scolded: "It's against you little rabbit cub, it's not your turn to call the shots in this matter, Lao Tzu has the final say, you have to marry if you don't marry!"
The little village girl surnamed Jiang was so crazy that she didn't take me seriously at all, and she didn't want to enter our Yu family's door as a young grandmother. β
Yu Jinhang's attitude was very resolute: "Father forgives his sins, I won't marry Zhou Jinzhi if I am killed, Miss Jiang is 10,000 times stronger than her." Father, for the sake of your own face, completely disregarding the wishes of your son, you ......"
"Come on, take the family law, I want to kill this rebel!" Master Yu was bumped into by his son and couldn't help but be furious.
The second lady persuaded the old man to calm her anger, and she wished that Yu Jinhang would be beaten up. The more fierce the quarrel between their father and son, the worse the lord's impression of Jinhang, the more beneficial it is to her son.
After a while, the two servants brought a large and heavy golden abacus and put it on the ground.
Under the master's order, the servant pulled the young master's pants above the knees, and let the young master bare legs and kneel on the abacus.
The kneeling abacus is the characteristic family method of the Yu family, this abacus is made of pure gold, and it is cold to kneel on it. There are gaps in the middle of each bead, uneven, very awkward.
Yu Jinhang's skin was white and tender, and his knees turned red after a while.
Master Yu forced him to comply, he gritted his teeth and did not change his words, and would rather be punished than marry a woman he didn't like.
Master Yu was quite angry, and ordered the servants to keep an eye on the young master, and let the young master kneel until he figured it out.
The second lady's eyes rolled: "Master, it's wrong for the young master to contradict you, he's still a child, don't be like him." For the sake of the old lady's face, spare him, the old lady will be distressed when she knows it. β
Hearing this, Master Yu was even more annoyed: "He relied on the old lady to get used to him, and he was used to having a problem, and he didn't even listen to Lao Tzu's words." If you don't let him learn a lesson today, it will be even more difficult to manage in the future. β
"He is the young master in our house, and his status is the most noble, and the old lady is used to him. The old lady only loves him, and Jin Cheng is not treated well no matter how obedient he is. The second lady's tone was a little sour.
Master Yu naturally heard it, and his eyes widened: "Don't use these words to point at me, I'm not confused, master." Take care of your son, he has caused a lot of trouble these days, one after another, and it doesn't make people worry. β
The second lady was stabbed, lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes to make a docile appearance: "Yes, what the master said is very true, I looked back at the Jincheng point more, after the master's teachings, he has made a lot of progress."
He soaked in the workshop every day, and he made beautiful soap flowers with his masters, and today he led people to sell them in the market. β
Master Yu's expression was slightly gloomy.
