Chapter 49: Continued
This kind of Yu Yuan made Chen feel very interesting, and she joked to him: "You nodding nonsense, do you agree with your uncle's words or not?" ”
Yu Yuan, who is usually very easy-going and generous, actually ran away when he heard it.
Chen and Yu Wen laughed, cleaned up, and then went to Yu Bo's house.
Yu Tang stood under the osmanthus tree in a daze, and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
In her previous life, her cousin didn't mention marriage so early.
Because her parents died and there was no male in her family, the lobby brother took the initiative to pick two rooms on one shoulder and keep filial piety for her parents for three years.
Three years later, in the eyes of the world, the Yu family has fallen, and the marriage of the eldest brother has become a heart disease of the eldest uncle and aunt. Those who have enough knowledge and upbringing, dislike their poor families, and are willing to marry their daughters, all have such and such obvious badness. But because of the death of her parents, the family is really thin, and the eldest uncle and aunt are anxious to let the elder brother marry, and marry the Gao family, the squire of Heqiao Town.
Who knows that the Gao family is very beautiful, but the temper is very irritable, after marrying, he first had many contradictions with his uncle and aunt, and then disliked Yu Yuan and couldn't make money, so he didn't let Yu Yuan get close to him at every turn, and finally simply lived back to his parents' house.
Although Yu Yuan has a wife, he is equal to not having a wife, not to mention the grandson that the eldest aunt and uncle have been looking forward to.
When Yu Yuan made money and the Gao family also returned to Yu's house, she felt that Yu Yuan was too stingy with her and was unwilling to help her mother's family.
No matter how the eldest aunt and eldest uncle endured, she did not give up on money, and insisted that Yu Yuan take charge of all the family belongings for her.
Under the persuasion of his aunt and uncle, the elder brother gave the family's belongings to the Gao family, but the relationship between the two fell to a freezing point.
The lobby brother is a layman, and he is not at home all the year round, and the Gao family calls friends at home and drinks orders.
There is a miasma of smoke in the house.
In the end, Yu Yuan died unexpectedly, and Gao took his family's belongings and ran away.
This is also why the life of the eldest aunt is almost unsettled after the death of the eldest uncle and the eldest cousin......
Thinking of these past events, Yu Tang sighed bitterly.
In her previous life, she couldn't help Yu Yuan, but she always hoped that Brother Lobby could have a happy family, and there would be someone around him who knew cold and hot, and there was no need to get entangled with the Gao family. After being reborn, she thought that she would have to find a way to change this matter, but she didn't expect that the eldest brother's marriage suddenly had an eyebrow, and it had nothing to do with her.
Yu Tang regretted a little that when her parents mentioned the Miss Cousin of the Wei family, she didn't inquire carefully. So when Yu Wen and Chen came back from Yu Bo, Yu Tang couldn't wait to go to his parents' room.
"What does the eldest aunt say?" She sat on the Taishi chair by the window in the inner room and watched Shuangtao serve her mother and change clothes, "The matchmaker is gone?" ”
Chen nodded with a smile and said, "Of course your eldest aunt is a thousand, ten thousand willing!" Your uncle has seen Miss Wei Jiabiao before, and I heard the matchmaker say that Miss Cousin still has a marriage of fifty acres of fertile land. ”
"Ahh Yu Tang was very surprised.
Fifty acres of dowry is not a small amount in Jiangnan.
It seems that the family of the young lady is better than the Yu family.
Chen changed his clothes, sat down beside Yu Tang with a smile, and said: "When the matchmaker talked about this matter, your aunt and I were also shocked. Or is your eldest uncle resolute, saying that he is not afraid of shadows, besides, where is your eldest brother not worthy of Miss Wei Jiabiao? And so it was. Speaking of this, Chen gently touched Yu Tang's head and said, "However, our two families will see each other in two days, do you want to go and see each other at that time?" ”
Yu Tang was a little surprised, and said, "Is it before the Mid-Autumn Festival?" ”
Chen nodded and said with a smile: "Mrs. Wei's meaning is to settle this matter after the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”
Why is it so urgent?
Yu Tang remembered Yu Yuan's marriage in her previous life, but she was in too much of a hurry to cause problems, and she couldn't help but say: "Mom, should we visit someone's house." Although you have all seen Miss Wei Jiabiao, but at that time, after all, the identity was different, and the understanding was different, and when marrying a daughter-in-law, it was better to see according to the requirements of the daughter-in-law. ”
"You have a point." Chen smiled and said, "It's not early, you should go and rest!" Tomorrow, your aunt and I will be busy with the Wei family's blind date. The tone was a little perfunctory, and it could be seen that she didn't take Yu Tang's words to heart.
Yu Tang was secretly anxious, hoping that Wei Xiaochuan could find her earlier, and she could also inquire.
But until the two families set a day to see each other, Wei Xiaochuan did not come to her.
She was anxious, and occasionally talked about it with Mrs. Chen: "I don't know why the Wei family decided the marriage so quickly?" ”
Mrs. Chen obviously knew more than her, and when she heard this, she smiled and said, "The Wei family must be in a hurry!" Miss Wei Jiabiao is three years older than our young master! ”
Yu Tang was surprised.
Mrs. Chen whispered to her: "The Wei family's cousin's surname is Xiang, and her father is a big landlord in Fuyang. After her biological mother died of illness, Master Xiang married Miss Yan of the Shen family in Hangzhou, who was said to have a very good temper and could not tolerate Miss Xiang. Miss Xiang's father had no choice, so he entrusted Miss Xiang to Mrs. Wei to upbring. Although Miss Xiang grew up in the Wei family, the Xiang family is not broken, and Miss Xiang's marriage Mrs. Wei can't have the final say by herself, and this back and forth will delay Miss Xiang's marriage. I thought about it, this time Miss Xiang and our young master Yuan's marriage, eight or nine times out of ten, Mrs. Wei cut it first, so she was in such a hurry. ”
Yu Tang said: "Then do my mother and aunt know?" ”
"Even I know, how could the wife and the eldest lady not know?" Mrs. Chen glanced at Yu Tang.
It happened that Shuangtao walked in from the kitchen with a small basket of fresh mustard greens ready to make plum vegetables, and interjected: "In that case, why didn't Mrs. Wei leave Miss Xiang at home?" ”
"How else can you little girls be ignorant?" Mrs. Chen instructed Shuangtao to take the mustard greens to the well water and wash them, and said, "Why don't you dare to make an in-law for Miss Xiang if you are an assertive person like Mrs. Wei, it is because this marriage event is not like buying clothes and shoes. Don't say anything else, let's just say that Mr. Wu next door to us was also a good match with Mrs. Wu back then, and they looked the same, which made people envious when they looked at them, but you can see that over the years, Mr. Wu's business has become bigger and bigger, but there are more and more female dependents in the family. As she spoke, she lowered her voice: "I heard from Master Wu's mother-in-law that Master Wu has been in Hangzhou City these days and has been raising a drama. Mrs. Wu was afraid that Master Wu would make a child, so she was going to pretend to be sick at home and trick Master Wu back. ”
"And this?!" Twin Peach's eyes widened.
The topic is all off the rails.
Yu Tang Waner.
In her previous life, she felt that Mrs. Chen's mouth was broken, and she liked to talk about everything, and when she came back from rebirth, she listened to her nagging, and she only felt kind.
Moreover, whether it is Mrs. Chen, Shuangtao or Ah Tao in this family, they all regard the Yu family as their own home, and Mrs. Chen and Shuangtao later followed her into the Li family, and Ah Tao has always followed Yu Yuan's side. After Yu Yuan was gone, he went to a shop to be a small shopkeeper, married a wife, gave birth to a child, and his life was not very prosperous, and he remembered to go to see his aunt and remember to go to Yu Yuan's grave......
Yu Tang's eyes were moist.
Chen's voice rang out in the backyard: "What are you doing here?" Didn't you say that you should go buy two osmanthus chickens and come back? I'll take it to my sister-in-law's side to entertain the matchmaker later. ”
Mrs. Chen stood up in a panic, pulled the apron on her body, wiped her hands, and said hurriedly: "I'll go, I'll go!" ”
Yu Tang laughed.
Chen looked at it and frowned, and said, "Don't laugh, how did you embroider the handkerchief that you embroidered?" When your sister-in-law enters the door, won't you, the sister-in-law, even embroider a handkerchief? ”
Yu Tang also ran away in a panic.
She met Wei Xiaochuan the day before Yu Yuan and Miss Xiang saw each other.
Wei Xiaochuan carried a school basket, leaned against the courtyard wall at the back door of her house dejectedly, and when he saw her come out, he said hello weakly: "Are you here?" ”
Yu Tang looked at her like his own brother, and said busily: "What's wrong with you?" Did you get bullied in the county school? ”
"Nope!" His mouth was pursed tightly, and he could see that he was in a very bad mood, "There is Mr. Shen in the county school, who dares to bully me." ”
"Then you are ......"
"I've found it." His eyes were a little gloomy, "That night, someone saw my second brother and two tall men walking on the ridge of my house, and they thought it was my second brother's friend, so they didn't care. But in a town not far from our home, two gangs were missing. According to them, both of them were tall and strong, and they disappeared the day after my second brother died. I didn't dare to look up the rest......"
Is it because you didn't dare to check and were depressed?
Yu Tang took him in his arms and patted him on the back gently.
Wei Xiaochuan struggled for a while and didn't break free, and his body gradually became soft.
"You say, why are those people so bad?" He choked up a little and said, "It's just a bad marriage, there are many ways, why do you have to take people's lives?" ”
Yu Tang thought of the "Hidden Picture of Fishing in Songxi", and said sadly: "Some people just spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. They show greed in the face of great wealth, and they think that everyone else will do the same. ”
Wei Xiaochuan didn't say anything, but he hugged her tighter.
"Sister," he suddenly changed his address to Yu Tang, "what should we do?" ”
With their ability, further investigation will only affect the clansmen.
Yu Tang sneered and said, "Respond to all changes with the same." ”
Wei Xiaochuan was puzzled and looked up at her.
Yu Tang reassured him in a low voice: "They won't just give up, but in order not to make people suspicious, they will definitely not do the same thing twice." This time, I'll just wait for them to come to the door. ”
Regarding the matter of Yutu, she didn't want the Wei family to get involved, so she didn't plan to let Wei Xiaochuan know.
Wei Xiaochuan said, "Sister, what can I help you?" ”
She didn't need Wei Xiaochuan to help her, but Wei Xiaochuan was precocious and keen, she didn't find something to do for him, she was afraid that he would inadvertently break into her bureau and make the people of the Wei family suspect Wei Xiaoshan's death.
"You help me watch Li Jun." Yu Tang decided to find something for him to do, "If this matter is related to the Li family, there must be movement on Li Jun's side." ”
