Chapter 9 Mother and Son Talk
Wen Du snorted, "Didn't I treat her well?" After she had a miscarriage, it was me who extended the doctor to ask for medicine, she was pregnant, I was afraid of pampering Xiao, so that she was angry, Xiao went to massage and incense for her two days in three days, just for her to be at ease, she said that she had no sister-in-law, worried all day long, I gave birth to Yucong with her, where did I treat her badly. Aunt Liu has a slight collision with her, I have always been partial to her! She can't see my kindness to her at all, she only holds Aunt Xiao! Don't look at how much she smiles at Aunt Xiao all day long, how many times has Aunt Xiao and Aunt Ruan been at odds with her! She promised me in the past that she would let Aunt Xiao's tablet be placed in the main house of the ancestral hall, but in the end, she still pushed the old lady out and asked the old lady to refute my words. The Xu family will calculate others, calculate the old lady! ”
Old Madam Wen sighed: "Even if the Xu family doesn't say it, I don't agree that Aunt Xiao's tablet is in the main house of the ancestral hall!" Aunt Xiao is also gone now. In the end, in our Wenfu, she has always been quiet and well-behaved, does not fight or grab, and is also peaceful in handling things, and everything is easy to discuss. Although I didn't drink Aunt Xiao's tea for the sake of Xu's face, in the end, I also felt that Aunt Xiao could be my daughter-in-law. You, go to the side room of the ancestral hall and talk to her later, and talk to her for me. ”
Wen Du grinned, looked at Old Lady Wen and said, "I know that you also think that the Xiao family is good, otherwise, how can the room still use the cushions and pillowcases embroidered by the Xiao family." ”
Old Madam Wen sighed: "Yujun's child is also well-behaved, and the Xiao family has Yujun's child, which is her blessing." In the future, I will take care of Yujun more for you. ”
"With the old lady's words, I am not afraid that Yujun will be bullied."
"Look at the way you don't trust the Xu family, you have to beware of this!" Old Madam Wen sighed, "That's it, Han Lian, the golden hairpin with the double peach branches, let's give it to the Xu family, you send someone to send it." ”
Old Madam Wen said and said: "Harmony is the most important thing, without Aunt Xiao, you and the Xu family must be more harmonious." Don't look at her as just an imperial merchant, but in terms of blood, she is also a distant relative of Empress Qi. ”
Twilight nodded.
In the Bitao Courtyard, the Xu family was eating, and Bao Xin was puzzled while disposing of the dishes: "Madam, the slave maid can't understand why you want Miss Yujun to raise you by your side." She is not Mrs. herself. ”
Xu smiled: "Yujun lives in Mingxin Xiaozhu, so the old man naturally has to go to Mingxin Xiaozhu often to visit her." Instead of this, it is better to let Yujun live in our Bitao Courtyard, so that the master can also come to Bitao Courtyard often. With Yujun, are you still afraid that the master will not come? ”
Bao Xin heard this: "Madame is really smart. ”
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wen Duan sat in the side room of the ancestral hall, stunned at Aunt Xiao's tablet, and muttered: "Ruen, in fact, I have always known that what you like in your heart is Lord Xu Guan, and I also know that you have always been wary of me, thinking that I married you to find out whether Lord Xu Guan really murdered the Seventh Prince." You even suspect that my Wen family's merits are higher than that of Emperor Duan, which makes Emperor Duan jealous, and I insist on marrying you, but I am just showing weakness to Emperor Duan, and personally giving Emperor Duan a handle, in order to reassure Emperor Duan. You have doubts in your heart, you suspect that I have ulterior motives, but I am never angry. Yujun is quiet and well-behaved. I'll definitely find a good home for her. Xu's personality, I have always seen through it and not said it, but my mother has agreed that I will take good care of Yujun. ”
Wen Du sat in the side room of the ancestral hall all day.
When it was time for dinner, the Xu family sent someone to find Wen Dui, and the subordinates all returned to Wen Du in the side room of the ancestral hall.
Xu hooked his lips and smiled, pulling Yuwan, Yuyan, and Yucong to eat together.
Bao Xin deliberately said: "The lord is really, he just came out of the palace, and his wife was worried about him day and night, worried about his response in the palace, but as soon as he came back, he rushed to the side room of the ancestral hall, and the slaves and maids were cold for the lady." ”
When Yuwan heard this, she looked up from her rice bowl, looked up at Xu, and asked, "Mother, is the dead Aunt Xiao the biological mother of Sister Yujun?" Why do they all say that Aunt Xiao is Sister Yujun's biological mother, but Sister Yujun still calls her mother her mother? ”
Xu Shi smiled when he heard this: "That's because my mother is the wife, Aunt Xiao is the concubine, you are the concubine, and Yujun is the concubine, it's like, a table of meals, rice is the staple food, and the dish is the supplementary food." Naturally, the rice is more noble, and the dishes are dispensable. But whether it's a meal or a dish, it's food. ”
Yuwan looked at the table full of dishes, shook his head and said, "But I prefer to eat vegetables and don't like to eat." ”
"If you don't eat and just eat vegetables, you'll get sick! If you suppress your concubine for the sake of your concubine, there will be chaos. Therefore, all the descendants are more noble. Even if you are not born, you have to call your mother, that's the truth. ”
Yu Wan nodded, and Yu Cong said, "Does that mean that we are more noble than Yu Jun and Yu Wan?" ”
Hearing this, Xu nodded and smiled: "Yes, Yu Cong is really smart. However, although you are more noble, you can't bully Yujun and her concubines, otherwise, people will laugh at you for bullying others. ”
Yu Cong nodded when he heard this.
Xu Shi said again: "Yuwan, Yuyan, Yucong, Yujun will come to live with you in Bitaoyuan in a few days, you have to be kind to Yujun." ”
Yu Yan is the eldest daughter of the house. The year before he was born, Xu's first child was aborted by Aunt Xiao's incident, and it was only the following year that Yu Yan was born, and a lot of things happened in the court in those years, and the biological mother of Wen Xu in the next house died, Wen Xu had some complaints about Wen Dui, and it made Wen Du feel lonely, so he didn't care much about the affairs of the house.
The Xu family wanted to prove his prestige, so he encouraged the subordinates in the house to slander the favored Aunt Xiao, and there was also a faint rumor among the subordinates about the Xu family's miscarriage back then, Yu Yan secretly listened to a lot of gossip, and at a young age, she knew that her father favored the concubine and neglected his wife, which led to the miscarriage of his wife, and the people spread it all over the place, so she has never had a good color for Aunt Xiao, and she has a faint look for Yujun.
By the end of some changes in the court, Wen Dui's position was still stable, and Wen Xu, a branch of the Wen family, surrendered to Wen Dui's descendant again. At the very least, those who cut off contact are afraid to say it.
Wen Du is no longer dormant at all, Wen Dui's power in the middle of the court has risen, and he has begun to free up his hands in the mansion to rectify the subordinates, and everyone who has passed on Aunt Xiao's bad words have been driven out and rushed to the grange in the suburbs to suffer and suffer.
For a while, everyone in the house was in danger, and they didn't dare to mention Aunt Xiao again.
Because Wen Du was repeatedly favored in the court, Xu was quite flattered by the ladies outside the mansion, and his heart was slightly balanced.
And the families in Shangrou City who originally passed Wen Dui's first beheading and then playing, spoiling concubines and killing wives, also because Wen Duan's status was stable and he was repeatedly valued by Emperor Duan, they became silent one by one and no longer chewed their tongues. There are even those who surrender to Wen Du or are willing to retreat in exchange for stability.
Therefore, since Yu Yan was three years old, the dark tide against Aunt Xiao in the house has receded all at once, and the dark tide against Wen Du outside the house has also disappeared all at once.
As the sun and the moon passed, the audience of Chaoyun was exiled to the wilderness, and Wen Dui stole the iron coupons of the Wen family's Danshu to cut it first and then play the disobedience to the holy decree, just like a wisp of jasmine oil on the tip of Xu's hair, it still smelled at the beginning, and the longer it was, the more the taste diffused, and even those who had seen Xu would ignore this.
Only Xu will always remember this incident, and as everyone forgets it, it becomes more and more unforgettable.
Yu Yan also followed her mother.
Yuwan Yucong's two sisters and brothers were born late, when they were born, they mentioned Wenfu as the largest mansion in the world, and when they mentioned Wendu, they did not fall into the prestige of his grandfather and father, and when they mentioned Wenxu, although they were inferior to their brothers and had rebellious personalities, they also got along with their brothers with etiquette and demeanor.
In short, I admire Wenfu all the time.
And when Yucong Yuwan was born, Aunt Xiao also had a year in the house, she did not fight or rob, she was indifferent and gentle, which was completely different from the vicious and unscrupulous image of instigation and unscrupulous means in the early days, and she also won the respect of many people in the house.
So Yuwan Yucong didn't hear those rumors, and occasionally went to her grandfather Xu's house as a guest, and would hear people deliberately say something unclear, but the two of them were simple and didn't care.
So when she heard that Yujun was coming, Yuwan Yucong didn't have any feelings, just like a butterfly flying in front of the window, she stopped if she wanted to, flew away if she wanted to, and she didn't mind if she wanted to fly away.
Yu Yan had the shadow of the same year in her heart, as well as the ridicule of some people in the Xu Mansion openly and secretly, so she always thought that Yu Junke had killed her younger brother who was not born before she was born, so she did not bear it.
"Mother, I don't want Yujun to come." Yu Yan put down her chopsticks and said bluntly.
Yuwan Yucong concentrated on eating.
Xu Shi smiled when he heard this: "I don't want her to come, she must come too." You can't bully her. ”
Yu Yan snorted angrily, bowed her head and did not speak. I was wronged for myself and for the Xu family.
By night, the snow had completely melted.
Yujun sat alone in front of the window, watching the moon in the sky.
Mother said that she used to be a person who watched the clouds, and she would visualize the moonlight at night.
The mother also said that there are fairies in the Moon Palace.
Yujun sat on the stool and rubbed the cushion embroidered on the stool with two rats stealing lamp oil in her little hand.
Her mother told her many stories, and she thought about it one by one, and in the future, her mother could not tell her stories, and she could only tell stories to herself in the long nights.
Caixiu looked at Yujun's thin back through the green curtain, and a trace of melancholy flashed in her eyes, the poor young lady was only eight years old, and she had no biological mother.
Caizhu sorted out the box of books left by Aunt Xiao, Rui Shuang, Rui Meng, as Aunt Xiao's former personal maid, one went to the West Farm in the Wenfu in the capital to keep a wake for Aunt Xiao, and the other left to sort out Aunt Xiao's old belongings.
The maids were busy, and Twilight came in with a bag of candied gummies.
"Sir?"
"Miss Yujun!"
When Yujun heard Wen Dui's voice, she hurriedly jumped down from the stool, lifted the curtain of the Green Pavilion, ran to Wen Dui's side, and said, "Daddy." ”
Wen Du smiled, lowered his head and leaned over, took out a bag of candied gummies from behind him, handed them to Yujun like a trick, and said with a smile: "Yujun look at this gummies, I specially ordered the housekeeper Uncle Wang to go out and buy it." ”
"Thank you, Daddy." Yujun took the gummy and smiled.
Wen Du looked at Yu Jun's smile, as if she could see Aunt Xiao's past look from Yu Jun's face, looked down at Yu Jun and said, "Yu Jun would like to live in Bitao Courtyard?" It will be more convenient to have a lady take care of you in the future. ”
