Chapter 249
After his son left, Lu Yu gently fell his eyes on his wife, and saw that her eyes were swollen from crying, and his heart seemed to be cut and twisted by a sharp weapon, and it hurt badly. He desperately wanted to help his wife, but there was no way, the crimes committed by the Wen family were too heavy, and His Majesty was determined to punish the Wen family, he really had more than enough heart but not enough strength.
Stretching out his hand to wrap his arms around his wife's slender shoulders and pulling her to sit down together, Lu Yu looked at his wife and said seriously: "The lady's mood is understood by her husband, and she is running around to socialize these days, and she also wants to collect some evidence in favor of the Wen family." It's just ......" His dark eyes drooped, and he paused before telling the truth.
Wen was obedient, couldn't help crying again, and only leaned his head lightly against his husband's chest.
"Those rebellious things are all done by my father and my father's protΓ©gΓ©s, and it is also appropriate to say a word of unfilial piety and be punished for doing something wrong. It's just that my father is guilty, but the young nephews and nieces in the family are innocent, they are still young, they don't understand anything, and they have to suffer for their elders, and it hurts to think about it. Wen said and cried again, but he was also afraid that her husband would worry, so she hurriedly held back again.
Lu Yu was also powerless, so he could only try his best to comfort his wife at the moment: "Don't worry, those children who were exiled to the Western Xinjiang, I will secretly take care of everything." At least, let them suffer less, so that they can save a life, and they will not be ruined by your Wen family. There are also female dependents who have not entered the court, and I will not watch them suffer, and I need to take care of them somewhat. β
"It's so hard for you. Wen knew that it was not easy for her husband to be able to do this, although she was still sad in her heart, but she couldn't worry her husband anymore, so she picked up happy things and said, "Husband, Ping An has become more and more sensible recently, this child is smart when he is young, I plan to choose a day for him to invite Mr. to be enlightened, what does the husband think?"
"The safety of the child is all taken care of by the lady, and it is the lady who has the final say. Seeing that his wife finally smiled, Lu Yu also breathed a sigh of relief, and then gently patted his wife's back and said, "I just heard that Ping An is reading? β
When it came to peace, Lu Yu thought of the Chaoyang County Lord of the Jin Palace, and couldn't help but show a loving smile on his face.
"A few days ago, I kept hearing Ping'an mention the county lord of Chaoyang, and I think Ping'an likes the county lord very much. Lu Yu looked at his wife, with a strange smile on her handsome and elegant face, and a pair of white and slender hands unconsciously stroked his wife's lower abdomen, and said ambiguously, "Another day, you go to the Jin Palace, visit the princess of Jin, and by the way, let her show you, is the scar on your stomach much better, if the wound is almost healed, we should also add another child, I like my daughter." β
Wen's face turned red when he brushed it, and he only lowered his head and said, "What did the husband say?" β
"I said, I like girls. Lu Yu straightened his wife's head, held her face tightly with those beautiful big hands, and said gently, "Lady, you can also give birth to a lovely girl like the county lord of Chaoyang for your husband, so that our son will always think about other people's sisters." β
Although Wen is shy, she thinks the same as her husband, and she also wants a girl.
"Listen to you, it just so happens that Ping'an has been talking about wanting to find the county lord of Chaoyang to play, and tomorrow I will take Ping'an to the Jin Palace's palace to visit the Jin princess. Wen lowered her head, but when she saw her husband pressing down, she breathed a little heavier, then closed her eyes slightly, and slowly fell down.
On the second day, after Wen went to his mother-in-law to ask for peace and was rejected again, he turned back and took his son out safely to the Jin Palace. Now it is spring in March, the weather is just right, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. The street is also very lively, with shops on both sides of the street, selling everything.
Wen sat in the carriage and dressed his son, but overheard what the people outside were saying.
"The dog thieves who eat inside and outside, take the money of the imperial court, and eat the food grown by our people, but they secretly collude with foreign thieves, intending to seize the country and harm the people. Such an old thief is really a teacher in vain, but fortunately, he will be beheaded, otherwise, I don't know how many people will be poisoned by it in the future. β
"Yes, now that the world is peaceful and prosperous, what a good day, but you have to collude with foreign thieves to deal with your own people. It is not a pity for such an old traitor to die. If you want me to say, the Wen family should be all killed, and they should be exterminated. What do you keep for such a black heart? It's all a litter, the old ones are like this, and the small ones are not much better. β
"I heard that this old thief also has an old girl who married the second master of the Lu Guo Mansion, but she was not implicated. However, it's not a good thing to think about, with the blood of Wen Lao Thief on her body, she must be a sinister and treacherous thief mother-in-law. The children born in the future are also traitors, and they are not good things. β
In the lively streets outside, the people were still talking enthusiastically, but Wen Shi who was sitting in the carriage couldn't listen to it.
"Uncle Feng, go back, don't go to the palace. Wen's heart was trembling, a pair of plain hands tightly twisted the handkerchief, and the whole person seemed to be in a panic.
Ping An, who was sitting in front of his mother, saw it, and comforted him sensibly: "Mother, you don't have to listen to those long-tongued women chewing the root of their tongues, Ping An will always be with you." β
"Peace, it's not good to be a mother, it's not good to be a mother. Wen cried and took his son into his arms and hugged him, choking in a low voice.
Ping An raised his sleeves and wiped his mother's tears and said, "Mother, don't cry, your eyes are swollen and you can't cry anymore." β
"Okay, my mother doesn't cry, my mother doesn't cry. Wen quickly pulled out a handkerchief to wipe his tears, and then only hugged his son tighter.
Not long after the mother and son returned home on the front foot, the grandmother next to the old lady came over, and Wen saw that it was Mama Hong who was waiting for the old lady, and hurriedly said: "It turned out to be Mama Hong, mother, please take a seat." Then he sent his son and said, "Ping'an, you go to study by yourself, and my mother will look for you in a while." β
"Yes, the son stepped back first. Ping An bowed to his mother, and then walked away respectfully.
"The little master is really well-behaved and sensible, he is very filial at a young age, and anyone who sees him likes it. Mama Hong had a smile on her face, her eyes kept falling on the back of Ping'an's departure, and when Ping'an's figure was gone, she turned around and said, "Second lady, the old slave is here to bring the old lady, and the old lady let the second lady go over." β
"Mother is finally willing to see me?" Wen was surprised, but obviously extremely happy.
Since something happened to her mother's family, her mother-in-law has never seen her again, and every time she goes to ask for peace, she is sent back. She thought that it should be because something happened to her mother's family, and her mother-in-law felt that she was an unlucky person, although she was sad in her heart, she didn't pay much attention to it.
It's one thing for my mother-in-law to not want to see her, and it's another thing for her to not understand the rules.
She didn't want her husband to know about such a thing, so she didn't have to make it difficult for him to be caught in the middle. Therefore, the girls and mothers-in-law who were waiting around them should all say hello and not say anything to the master. And these days, Lu Yu is also very busy, running around, taking care of his wife's emotions, naturally ignoring some things.
After Wen arrived at Mrs. Lu's place, he said goodbye according to the rules, and then stood quietly aside.
"Go down, all of you, and let no one come in without my command. Seeing that Wen was coming, Mrs. Lu only raised her eyelids, and sent out all the girls in the house, and then she looked at Wen quietly, and pulled her shriveled mouth, revealing a smile that was even more ugly than crying, "Just went out?"
"Yes, Mother. Wen was not surprised, the entire Guogong Mansion was the old lady's eyeliner.
"Sit down. Old Mrs. Lu pursed her mouth and gently spit out two words, and only after seeing Wen sit down did she say again, "I was going to go to the Jin Palace, but I turned back halfway, second daughter-in-law, can you tell me the old woman, why did you suddenly turn back again?"
Wen didn't expect her mother-in-law to ask like this, and suddenly she was scared, she didn't want to tell the truth.
The daughter-in-law felt a little uncomfortable, so she thought about going to see Princess Jin another day. Wen's voice was low.
"Uncomfortable on the body...... Old Lady Lu repeated her words in her mouth, and asked meaningfully, "Is it uncomfortable on the body, or is it uncomfortable after listening to certain words?"
Wen was startled, then couldn't sit still, and slowly stood up.
Old Mrs. Lu, who was still smiling a little, had her face completely drooping at the moment, and she only looked at Wen with a solemn expression, gloomy.
"Speaking of which, you are not worthy of my Yu'er at all, if it weren't for the fact that you were Prime Minister Wen's daughter, I wouldn't have asked Yu'er to marry you. Mrs. Lu said lightly, "You had the daughter of a minister before, no matter how Yu'er spoils you, you can always bring him benefits, I have no opinion." However, now that your Wen family has fallen, you have still committed such a big crime, what use does my Lu family want from you? Not only can you no longer bring benefits to Yu'er's father and son, but you will become a stumbling block in Yu'er's career. Although you have escaped responsibility, but what you have in your body is the blood of the Wen family, Your Majesty is extremely disgusted with the Wen family, and he will not be very optimistic about Yu'er, the little son-in-law of the Wen family. You, if you know each other, you can solve yourself by yourself, if you don't know each other, then you can't blame my wife. β
Wen's feet suddenly went limp, and she almost didn't stand firm, and she looked up at the old man sitting in the high seat blankly.
"Mother, what do you mean by this?" Wen couldn't believe it, although she vaguely guessed the meaning of the old man's words, she was still frightened, "Mother, it's not as good as marrying a daughter, this is the rule." β
"Hmph!" Mrs. Lu suddenly slapped the table and said angrily, "What bullshit rules, you should die!"
"Your Wen family has been convicted, how can you be born well? If you are really filial, you should go underground with your father and mother, instead of living in this world to harm my son!" Old Mrs. Lu finally showed her ugly face in front of the Wen family, and she said viciously, "You are dead, in two years, no matter how deep your feelings are, the second child will forget you." When the time comes, I will personally choose another good family for him. It's good for Ping'an like this, you are the daughter of a criminal minister, although Ping'an is the blood of my Lu family, but there is also the blood of the Wen family, and it is a great shame to have a mother like you. If you are truly good to your son, you will decisively end yourself. β
"Does my mother want me to die?" Wen was a little desperate, not because of the cruelty and ferocity of the old lady, but because she was really afraid that her husband and son would lose their future for the rest of their lives because of her.
If she can exchange her death for the glory and stability of her husband and son, then she is not afraid of death.
"Figured it out?" Old Lady Lu stared at Wen with a pair of dry old eyes, and saw that her face seemed to reveal a desire for death*, and said with a sigh of relief, "Don't worry, I'm not such a hard-hearted person, as long as you die, I will take good care of peace." β
Wen raised his eyes, only glanced at Old Lady Lu lightly, and suddenly smiled.
She just said that she was not a hard-hearted person, and Wen thought it was funny. 166 Reading Network
