Chapter 38: The Great Sacrifice
This is the second time that the three of them have sat in this room and are deliberating.
Last time, because of the emerald green thing, Ye Yunshui gained a firm foothold in the Ye Mansion through the bitter meat scheme, but this time it was much more complicated than the last time, Ye Yunshui could infer from Ye Chongtian's gaze that Ye Chongtian was making some kind of decision in his heart.
"Shangqingfu still insists that you marry him." Ye Chongtian opened his mouth and said, "You are mentally prepared. ”
The old lady let out a long sigh, but looked at Ye Yunshui and didn't speak.
Ye Yunshui's heart also sighed, is the Ye family going to sacrifice themselves?
Seeing that Ye Yunshui didn't answer, there wasn't even a trace of expression on his face, but it made Ye Chongtian prepare a stomach of comfort, and he didn't know how to speak.
"Zhang Yushan was promoted to the head of the Ministry of Industry after the year, and he was a third-grade product." Ye Chongtian came up with such a sentence for a long time.
Ye Yunshui knew what Ye Chongtian meant, Zhang Yushan was Zhang Hong's father, Ye Chongtian wanted to say that she married the grandson of the second-grade official and the son-in-law of the third-grade official as a flat wife, so she didn't lose her identity. However, if Ye Chong naively resigned from the position of medical integrity, it would really be regarded as Ye Yunshui's high climb.
But Ye Yunshui still didn't have half an answer.
Ye Chongtian and the old lady glanced at each other, then got up and left, he left with obscurity on his face, Ye Yunshui thought that he was for his official position, and he would never be so sentimental as to think that he was guilty of himself, the father's love in this era is like the moon reflected in the water at night, it can be seen, but the radiant brilliance can never really warm people's hearts.
The old lady shook Ye Yunshui's hand, "Grandmother knows that you are bitter in your heart, but how can a woman have a time to be self-sufficient in this life?" ”
Ye Yunshui forced out a smile, "Grandmother, don't worry, what the granddaughter can do, she will not make the Ye Mansion embarrassed." Ye Yunshui's words were categorical, but she already had another plan in her heart.
The old lady's eyes showed a bit of pity, Ye Yunshui knew that she was really reluctant, but she was also a little moved, but this did not make Ye Yunshui erase the resentment in her heart, whether it was for herself or for the predecessor who had hanged herself, both of them wanted to get rid of this disgusting marriage, but neither of them succeeded.
Maybe life is like this, grievances are not uncomfortable, grievances are uncomfortable without complaints, Ye Yunshui couldn't bear it for the first time, so he said goodbye to the old lady and went back to his small courtyard, since the morning of the second day, she didn't say a word, no one knew what she was thinking, Su's mother wanted to come forward to comfort her several times, but she only saw a piece of blood jade unicorn pendant in her hand holding it fiercely......
The second day is the day of the big sacrifice of Ye Yunshui's mother, Ye Mansion was busy early in the morning, and the servants were busy loading the sacrifices, because it was a big sacrifice, except for the old lady, everyone with the big room and the second room had to go to the memorial service.
Ye Yunshui didn't sleep all night, and was served by Chunyue very early to change into a plain clothes, accompanied by Su's mother, and went to the Lotus Garden to meet Ye Zhang's family first.
Ye Yunshui met Ye Chongtian's three aunts for the first time in Ye Zhang's Lotus Garden, in addition to Aunt Chen, there are also Aunt Zhuang and Aunt Bai, all of whom are dressed as women in their thirties.
Ye Yunshui felt the different gazes of the three aunts, Aunt Chen's gaze was a little more concerned, while the other two aunts just looked at it secretly.
Ye Yunshui didn't want to have any close intersections with the three aunts, but it was easy for Ye Zhang's to hate them.
and the three aunts met separately, Ye Yunshui took a small sedan chair to the door of the house under the leadership of Ye Zhang's to change into a carriage, Ye Zhang's, Ye Yunshui and Ye Qian were like a car, Ye Xiaofei and Ye Chongtian were in the same car, the three aunts were in the same car, the two rooms were in separate cars, and the other maids and maids followed on foot.
Ye Qianru came out on the first day after being grounded by the old lady, although her face looked a little resentful, she didn't dare to complain, maybe she was really scared in the past two days, but she was not as arrogant as before.
Ye Zhangshi looked at Ye Yunshui with disdain at the corner of his mouth with cold eyes, "Today is the twenty-ninth year, and the day after tomorrow will be your happy day." ”
Ye Yunshui knew that Ye Zhang's was deliberately provoking something to say, but he was not angry, "What does my mother have to say?" ”
"Don't worry, there are some things that need to be instructed, I will explain to you the night before the happy day, and I will never let you lose your dignity in front of people." The meaning of Ye Zhang's words Ye Yunshui didn't want to think deeply, "There is an old mother who bothered." ”
"I know you resent me, but without the consent of the old lady and your father, this marriage would not have been possible." Ye Zhang's words made Ye Yunshui a little surprised, she would only sarcastically sarcastic herself in the next day, why did what she said today not only provoke her relationship with the old lady and Ye Chongtian, but also have some soft meanings?
Ye Yunshui didn't think that Ye Zhang's felt that she was going to get married, this thorn in her eye was finally going to be pulled out, and she could have some conscience to find, "How dare Yunshui disobey the order of her parents." ”
Ye Zhang glanced at her with a little pride, and then didn't say anything more, Ye Qianru remembered Ye Yunshui's one hundred and twenty-eight dowry again, and her face was full of jealousy and hatred.
The ancestral hall of the Ye family has not been around for many years, and today's Ye Mansion Festival, there are many clan relatives who came to watch the ceremony, and Ye Yunshui also saw her fourth uncle for the first time at this time, Chen Zhongshu, the fourth uncle of the Chen Mansion, the Chen family sent him to sacrifice together, but the other Chen family members did not show up.
When Ye Yunshui got out of the car, she felt that Chen Zhongshu was looking at her, but she didn't avoid her gaze, she looked at her, Chen Zhongshu nodded tacitly, and Ye Yunshui was accompanied by Su's mother to come forward to say goodbye, Chen Zhongshu didn't say much, but said: "The first big sacrifice ceremony, there is a time to get together." ”
At this time, Ye Zhang's family came to call Ye Yunshui to salute, and the ceremony of the sacrifice for Ye Yunshui's biological mother began.
First of all, the sacrifices were offered in turn, and Ye Chongtian and Ye Zhang's saluted, in front of Ye Yunshui's mother's tablet, Ye Zhang's had to perform a concubine ceremony, even if it was just a dead man's tablet, she had to abide by the rules, which was why Ye Zhang's heart was thorny.
After Ye Chongtian and Ye Zhang's saluted, it was Ye Yunshui, the concubine, who stepped forward, Ye Yunshui seriously kowtowed to the tablet three times, and a sour feeling in his heart for no reason welled up in his heart, tears fell like beads in an instant, pear blossoms brought rain, the more he cried, the more fierce he became, and the people around him who knew the truth were sad.
Ye Zhang's face was a little unsightly, and he glanced at Mother Su who was serving beside Ye Yunshui, although Mother Su was reluctant, she had to step forward to help Ye Yunshui aside, and comforted with a boo, Ye Yunshui didn't know why he was crying, Xu was crying before, Xu was crying himself, the grievances of his two lives were vented at this moment, and there was a trend that could not be stopped.
Ye Yunshui didn't remember the sacrificial rites in the future, but just went through the process according to the procedures.
Ye Chongtian invited the monks of Jing'an Temple to come and recite the scriptures, Ye Yunshui also saw Gong Zhen, Gong Zhen followed his senior brothers to sit on the futon with a serious look at this time, making a futon with one hand, reciting the scriptures in his mouth, that look very focused. Xu is only a simple person has such a purified heart, Ye Yunshui couldn't help laughing at herself in her heart: she has never been so quiet, she is destined to be inseparable from a fighting word in her life, this is human life.
The sacrificial ceremony was carried out for two hours, and these monks had to be chanting the scriptures here for seven days, which would last until the fifth day of the new year, Ye Yunshui returned to the house with the people of Ye Mansion, and told Chunyue about seeing Gong Zhen, Chunyue was happy, and specially wrapped the candy he had saved, "I will send it to his father when I ask Hua'er to send it to him." ”
Ye Yunshui did not stop her, she had already begun to think of a way out for Chunyue, Chunyue suffered a lot with her, she didn't want Chunyue to follow her into the land of tigers and wolves in Shangqing's Mansion, even if she wanted to make a desperate bet, she would not pull the people around her, touching the piece of blood jade unicorn pendant that was placed close to her, Ye Yunshui was still in contemplation.
In the evening, the old lady suddenly asked someone to call Ye Yunshui over, but said that Chen Fu would come to pick Ye Yunshui back to Chen Mansion tomorrow to get together, and send her back early in the morning, and the old lady wanted to help Ye Yunshui staff some greeting gifts, "...... Chen Fu is a jeweler, choose some jade beads and hairpins don't have to make Chen Fu laugh, I know that Mr. Zhao will take you some good old ginseng three in the library, and give them to your three uncles, four copies of bird's nest, one for each aunt and uncle, and you can prepare a little more small gifts for the rest of your brothers and sisters, just a heart. ”
"It's still grandmother's thoughts." Ye Yunshui knew that the precious medicinal materials that the old lady sold would not be too bad.
"There are also some small silver naked children who beat people, the Chen Mansion is richer than ours, and the people's horizons are also higher."
The old lady's words were a little sour, Ye Yunshui just responded but didn't say much, the old lady must be selfish, she had never mentioned her grandfather's family in front of her all these years, but at this time, she told her that the descendants of her grandfather's family had a high vision, and this pricked Ye Yunshui in advance, telling her that Ye Yunshui was a person from the Ye Mansion, and her grandfather couldn't kiss the Ye family no matter how close she was.
Ye Yunshui felt that the old lady's careful thinking was very boring, so he said that he would go back first to prepare a meeting gift for his cousins and sisters, and said goodbye in advance.
This night, Ye Yunshui was wondering, why did the Chen Mansion pick her up in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve? There is no reason for the girl to return to her grandfather's house on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, is it really because she is getting married, so it happens that this day is this day?
