Chapter Seventy-Seven: Placing a Dowry
、、、、、、、、、、
"Madam, the master is here." Li Niang spewed white gas from her mouth when she spoke, she lifted the velvet curtain and walked into the inner room, saluted Mrs. Yu, and whispered.
When she first saw that she had just taken off the red wedding dress that Mrs. Yu had made for her, she hurriedly put on the cotton clothes, put on the coat decorated with animal hair pearls, and the white fur made her skin more ruddy and fair, she heard that Yuyun was born, the corners of her mouth were slightly swept into laugh lines, and she looked at Mrs. Jade with an expressionless face.
"Please come to the hall, and we'll go out." Mrs. Yu explained lightly, and then said to Chu Jian, "Your father is here, presumably for the eldest girl's business, and now there are only ten days left before the day of your marriage, so if Chen Zhenhui goes to Palmetto City, we will not have to prevent her from playing tricks." ”
Chu Jian walked over and took Mrs. Yu's hand and said, "It's nothing to let Aunt Chen go to Palmetto City, but, mother, I'm afraid that the elders of the clan will know when the time comes, and I want to blame you for not setting up rules at home." ”
Madame Yu smiled, "Didn't your father come?" Let's see how he decides. ”
Chu Jian nodded and smiled, and went out of the inner room with Mrs. Yu, just as Yu Yunsheng also walked into the hall from outside.
"Madame" Yu Yunsheng had a rare look of joy on his face, and stepped forward to hold Mrs. Yu's hand.
Madam Yu smiled faintly and pulled her hand out of Yu Yunsheng's hand, "What makes the master so happy?" ”
Yu Yunsheng's eyes darkened, and there was a little disappointment in his eyes, he asked Mrs. Yu to sit on the chair first, and then sat down to look at it, "Madam, I think you should also know about this, Xue Ling is pregnant, and the lord of Shangguan City cherishes her, knowing that she misses her mother, so I want to invite us to Palmetto City, I came to ask Madame what you mean?" ”
We? Mrs. Yu and Chu Jian glanced at each other, and said calmly, "The concubine has already heard the good news from her subordinates about this matter, and the eldest girl is so blessed." ”
Yu Yunsheng said with a smile, "Although Xue Ling is a concubine, she is fortunate to have the mercy of the Shangguan City Lord, otherwise she would not have asked Zhenhui to accompany her." ”
"Oh? Is the Shangguan City Lord planning to invite the old man and Aunt Chen to go to Palmetto City together? Madame Jade asked lightly.
Yu Yunsheng glanced at the first meeting with some embarrassment, "Shangguan City Lord does want me to go over with me, but now that the day of marriage is approaching, I can't go away, but whether Aunt Chen can go to Palmetto City or not, please ask Mrs. to decide." ”
"The master can make the decision on this matter, and the concubine has no objection." Mrs. Yu snorted coldly in her heart, Yu Yunsheng actually wanted to go to Palmetto City in his heart, but if he was not there for the first time he saw the relationship with the Yun Wangfu, it would be known that he went to see the concubine, and his own reputation would not be guaranteed.
Yu Yunsheng's heart was full of wordless bitterness, these days, he has been trying his best to please her, he knows that now he is very disappointed in him, he also knows that he has never treated Chu Jian well for so many years, and now he wants to make amends, but he doesn't know what to do.
This time he was really happy for Xue Ling and missed her, but he didn't think about going to Palmetto City, at least he wouldn't go to Palmetto City until he first met him and didn't go out.
"Madame, you said it before...... Xueling bullying for the first time, what is going on? He spoke with difficulty, this matter had always been in his heart, he had always thought that it was a prostitution to say this, but it didn't seem to be like it.
When she first saw Xiu's eyebrows, she glanced at Yu Yunsheng in some surprise, she didn't expect him to suddenly mention this matter, at that time, Mrs. Yu angrily accused Yu Yunsheng of not asking carefully, and then I didn't see him pay much attention to this matter, thinking that he felt that Yu Xueling would never do anything to bully his younger sister, or maybe it was because her concubine was not worth his trouble, why did he ask today? On a whim?
"The master still has to find out by himself, the eldest girl is docile and well-behaved in the master's heart, what does she look like behind the master, does the master know?" Lady Jade asked with a smile.
Yu Yunsheng glanced at the first time again, and there was a struggle in his eyes, could he really have seen Yu Xueling wrong?
"I've never seen Xue Ling being rudely beaten and scolded at first sight, but I don't know what Xue Ling did to Chu Jian behind her back, madam, I ignored it, but now Xue Ling has become Shangguan Hui's concubine, you should think that the previous things have disappeared!" Yu Yunsheng suddenly took Mrs. Yu's hand and pleaded softly, even if he knew that Yu Xueling had bullied Chu Jian, he also felt that her nature was still good, but he was just jealous of her identity at first sight.
Madam Yu closed her eyes lightly and spoke for a long time, "Everything is up to the master." ”
When I first saw it, I lowered my eyelashes and hid the sneer under my eyes, I really couldn't expect much from Yu Yunsheng! I thought he had a conscience and wanted to compensate for the daughter who had neglected for more than ten years, who knew that he had said so much, but it was just to intercede for Yu Xueling, haha, this Yu Xueling was more than ten times more important than her daughter in Yu Yunsheng's mind.
Yu Yunsheng still wanted to say something to Mrs. Yu, but seeing Mrs. Yu's indifferent eyes, he felt a pang in his heart and let go of her hand, "That's ...... How did the first dowry go? ”
Mrs. Yu withdrew her hand into her sleeve and clenched it into a fist, her voice was still faint and soft, "It's almost over, I was about to ask the master to take a look at the single eye." ”
Mrs. Yu raised her eyes and glanced at Li Niang, who immediately took a red single eye from the house and presented it to Yu Yunsheng.
After Yu Yunsheng took it, he looked at it carefully, and said to Mrs. Yu, "The first time I saw was always our only daughter, this dowry still has to be better managed, I thought about it, it is better to give her the four villages in the south and the four rooms on the main street, and in the future, after the palace, there will also be some silver income, you don't have to look at the faces of others, and this pressure box money, the bottom of the eight boxes of dowry money is made of gold nuggets, don't use silver money, well, and the old lady left the jewelry for the first time also put down together, and Mrs. added a few more sets." ”
Madame Jade smiled slightly, "Got it, sir." ”
Yu Yunsheng said to Chu Jian again, "First sight, you are about to marry a wife, remember not to be willful anymore, you must know how to teach your husband and be a good wife of the prince, do you know?" ”
The first time I saw him, I bowed, "The first time I saw me, I remembered my father's teachings." ”
Yu Yunsheng nodded, very satisfied to see the meekness of the first meeting, so that he looked like a lady, he handed the red slip to Mrs. Yu, "Then Mrs. will look at it, I'll go back to the embroidery workshop first." ”
Madame Jade stood up, "Master go slowly!" ”
It wasn't until Yu Yunsheng's figure disappeared from sight that he laughed at first sight, "Mother, which one is my father doing?" ”
Mrs. Yu sneered and said, "Yu Xueling is pregnant, Yu Yunsheng must want Shangguan Hui to follow the previous agreement and promote Yu Xueling to a flat wife, he is so generous to you, he just wants me to say good things for Yu Xueling then, if I guess correctly, your father plans to let Yu Xueling call me mother in the future, so that she is qualified to be the equal wife of the Shangguan City Lord." ”
With Yu Xueling's identity, if Madam Yu hadn't accepted her as her daughter, it would be impossible for her to become the equal wife of the Shangguan City Lord.
"If she calls you mother, how will Aunt Chen deal with herself?" Hatsumi asked.
"She should have called me a mother, the children born by the concubine are all the children of the housewife, when Chen Zhenhui was going to die or cry and asked Yu Yunsheng to let her daughter raise her for herself, I don't know who Yu Yunsheng wants me to do today, and I don't care who it is." Mrs. Yu smiled coldly, it was absolutely impossible for her to treat Yu Xueling as her daughter.
"But if the Shangguan City Lord wants Yu Xueling to become a flat wife, the Wai Weng ...... there" Shangguan City Lord still seems to respect the Zhongwang Mansion, is it necessary for him to have a bad relationship with the Zhongwang Mansion for Yu Xueling's sake?
Chu Jian sighed in her heart, she knew that although their guess was not true, it was not far away, Yu Xueling was definitely not willing to be a concubine, this time she asked Chen Zhenhui to go to Palmetto City, it would not be as simple as missing.
"This is just our speculation, let's see when the time comes, Yu Xueling can get pregnant, and it has already proved that this person's scheming is deeper than we imagined." Madame Jade led the first man back to the house.
"What do you mean by Mother?" Hearing that there was an unusual meaning in his mother's words, he asked when he first saw the fox.
Mrs. Yu asked the little girls in the house to retreat, and then whispered to Chu Jian, "Shangguan City Lord has not had an heir for many years, I heard your eldest aunt mention that this Shangguan Hui has seen the doctor, and there will be no children, how can Yu Xueling be pregnant?" ”
I was taken aback at first sight, and my shoulders trembled slightly, wahaha, it turns out that this Shangguan Hui is an infertile master! That...... How did Yu Xueling's belly come about?
"Mother, since the Shangguan City Lord knows that he will not have an heir, why is he still so good to Yu Xueling?" Hatsumi couldn't help but be surprised.
Mrs. Yu said, "The doctor didn't tell Shangguan Hui the truth, if Shangguan Hui knew that he couldn't have children, the doctor would definitely live for a short time." ”
"In this way, Shangguan Hui will know about this matter, and Yu Xueling is afraid that she will be beaten to death!" Hatsumi lowered his voice and asked in Mrs. Yu's ear.
Madam Yu glanced at her, "This may not be, maybe Shangguan Hui has already recovered." ”
When I first saw her, she smiled in her heart, it wasn't that she had doubts about ancient medical skills, this infertility was not like a cold and flu that could be cured by taking a few medicines, she was not gloating, she just felt that Yu Xueling's trick was dangerous, and it would only be herself who would be harmed in the end.
"Okay, let's not talk about this, have you received a letter from King Yun?" Mrs. Yu didn't plan to continue to talk about Yu Xueling, this was not what she cared about, she only cared about the lifelong events she first met.
Chu Jian shook his head, his face was a little sad, "I only heard that Chun Yuyan and they were defeated and captured, and now Qi Yu should be on Huining City." ”
Madame Yu knew that the first time she saw was because she was sad for Chun Yuyan, she stroked the sideburns of the first meeting, and said softly, "Chun Yuyan had already expected today's result when he decided to start the incident, and he is still alive, isn't he?" You don't have to feel sorry for him, I thought, maybe that's the best outcome for him. ”
Chujian sighed, "Mother, I understand this, if it is not easy to make peace today, no one wants to war, these rebels who want to restore the country are not popular at all, defeat is inevitable, what I am worried about now is the fate of Chun Yuyan." ”
Madam Yu said, "Today's saint is wise and benevolent, if he wanted to kill Chun Yuyan, he would not have surrendered in the first place, don't worry." ”
Chu Jian nodded, she really didn't want Chun Yuyan to have any bad end, "That's fine, the emperor should treat him well." ”
"Then you can be your bride in peace?" Mrs. Yu smiled softly, she was really reluctant to marry off her first sight.
smiled shyly at the first sight, there are still more than ten days, and she is going to marry Qi Zhen.
