Chapter 1234: Extra-Yalich 20
"Sister, you, why bother to suffer yourself." Chun'er finally sighed helplessly. Can emotion really make people unforgettable?
"Chun'er, I'm fine." Yalich sniffed and tried to smile, "I've gotten used to it for the past two years. β
Chun'er was speechless for a while. He had not experienced the taste of emotion, could not understand, and could not persuade.
Thirty-nine days, when the capital is the coldest time, dripping water into ice. Shaoqing Eniang went silently on such a winter night.
She's just a very ordinary woman. If there was no Shaoqing's son, if Shaoqing hadn't been a general by the side of the Fourteenth Master, and had not been involved with Yaliqi, she probably wouldn't have been involved with the royal family.
However, she would rather not have any of that! Even if there are rich days, the most beloved son can never wake up. It's hard to live such a lonely day. Death was a better relief for her.
Her funeral was very simple. A widowed woman. Shaoqing's relatives stopped coming after hearing that she had donated all her property to the temple. And her own maiden family has long been gone.
So on the day of the funeral, there were only one or two friends from Chun'er and Shaoqing when they were young, and then the people sent by the fourteenth and eighth masters.
On that day, there was no more snow for several days. The sky was very cold. The howling north wind is like a knife to tear people apart! Jalich sat in a warm room, but his heart was desolate.
This day seemed to say goodbye, but it seemed to make her heart sink deeper.
Winter turned to spring, and eighteen-year-old Yalich finally had to face the matter of getting married.
Mao Tongtong actually didn't want to use this incident to embarrass the child. But she alone can't fight against the whole society. If this were modern, she would never interfere with Yalich. But this is antiquity! Even with Yalich's status, it is impossible to be an old girl for a lifetime.
I thought it would take a lot of effort to persuade Yalich. Because Yalich seems to have let go of the past two years. But Mao Tongtong knows that it is not so easy to forget a person.
But I don't want to, the matter of marrying someone was brought up by Yalich himself!
"Eniang, let Ama choose a forehead for me."
Mao Tongtong remembered her shocked look at the time and YaliΔ's understatement years later. As if just saying, E-niang, I want to eat jujube paste cake tomorrow!
The family sat together for dinner that day. Mao Tongtong and the eighth master, Hongwang and his Fujin, Chun'er, everyone was shocked!
Yalich's marriage was once taboo in this family. Everyone avoided talking about it, lest she be sad. It's just that seeing that she is getting older day by day, everyone's hearts are also anxious. But no one dared to open this mouth first, for fear of attracting her resistance!
But no one expected her to take the initiative to mention it.
"In the past two years, everyone has worried about me." Yalic smiled calmly, as if she had already decided, "It's my eighteenth birthday soon, and I can't say that I won't marry again." I have to bother Ama and Eniang to worry about my daughter again, so let's pick a forehead for my daughter. You don't need to have a prominent family background, just be honest. β
"Okay." For a long time, it was the eighth master who responded first.
"Yaliqi, you, if you are reluctant, Eniang can still do it," Mao Tongtong was interrupted by Yaliqi before he finished speaking, "Eniang, I am not reluctant!" β
She calmly faced Mao Tongtong's gaze, "Eniang, my daughter is not reluctant at all. Really, you don't have to worry. If she gets married, her daughter will live a good life. β
Mao Tongtong was speechless for a while. She was soft-hearted and didn't want to see her only daughter wronged herself for the sake of the world. The moment she heard Yalich speak, she even had a thought of letting go, what if she had been protecting her daughter like this? When she really lets go of it one day, what about remarrying?
But I don't want Yalich to seem to be not going to find a way back for herself, so she blocked her back words.
"Okay." Mao Tongtong could only say this word, "E-Niang respects your decision." I just hope you think it through yourself and don't do things that you regret. β
"Well, don't worry, my daughter has thought it through." Yalich nodded.
"Little sister, eldest brother has a good friend, and he is also eighteen this year. Because Ama Eniang died one after another to keep filial piety, the previous marriage contract was withdrawn. He's an editor at the Hanlin Academy, and he's a bit of a nerd. Hongwang said suddenly.
"Is it called Wang Xiuyuan?" The eighth master asked.
Hongwang nodded and said, "The jinshi of this department." At home is the flag of the Han army. β
"The emperor took a fancy to his talent and wanted to hone and refine the book." Eight Masters said. This is actually a kind of weight.
It's just that the Hanlin Academy has always been the Qingshui Yamen. If you have a dead parent like Wang Xiuyuan, it's really hard to find a daughter-in-law.
"His ancestors were also officials in the court, but he Ama was not angry, so he declined. He has been reading well since he was a child, but he re-entered the officialdom with his own ability. The family background is indeed average, but the talent and character are good. Hongwang Road.
He was genuinely thinking about Yalich. The death of both parents is unlucky, but it also means that the population is simple, and without the constraints of his in-laws, Yalich can be the master of the house when he enters the door.
"Who else is in his family?" Mao Tongtong asked.
"I also have a sister and a younger brother. My sister is thirteen this year and has not yet been drafted. My younger brother was just ten years old. Hongwang Road.
This is probably the most troublesome. In the absence of her parents, Yaliqi, the eldest sister-in-law, has to support her uncle and sister-in-law when she enters the house, and she will have to manage the marriage of the two in the future.
The eighth master and Mao Tongtong frowned at the same time. Chun'er also shook her head, "Big brother, don't you have a better candidate?" What kind of family is this! β
Yalich said, "Big brother, I want to see people first!" β
"Yalich!" Mao Tongtong hurriedly spoke.
"Eniang, you said you respected your daughter's decision." Yalich looked calm and said, "Since the eldest brother recommended it, the character must be trustworthy." I don't mind the situation in his family, I just want to see people first. β
"Yalich, do you really want to see you? Otherwise, I'll meet you Amma first. Mao Tongtong said.
"Amma, Eniang, little sister," Hongwang said a little embarrassed, "I mean, if you think it's okay, I'll ask first." β
"He still dares to pick!" The eighth master immediately raised his eyebrows!
"That's it!" Chun'er is also angry!
Mao Tongtong could still understand, nodded and said, "Well, you ask first, don't scare people!" β
Instead, Yalich laughed and said, "Big brother, you should ask first." β
Wang Xiuyuan was really scared!
His friendship with Hongwang is actually not very deep. After all, the two have different identities. It's just that there are a few times when the conversation is very pleasant, and it can be regarded as a like-minded person, and there is a friendship between each other.
This will hear that Hongwang wants him to be his brother-in-law, and his jaw is about to fall out in fright!
