As soon as the ancestral hall of the Yan Mansion stepped in, Xu Wanning felt a little cold.

She looked at the tablets in front of her and knew that most of them died on the battlefield, including Yan Yuanzheng's parents.

The Yan family is now left with only the lone seedling of Yan Yuanzheng, and the battlefield sword has no eyes, and no one can guarantee that he will come back alive.

That's why the old lady is in such a hurry.

For the Great Qi Dynasty, the Yan family is indeed full of loyalty, which is one of the reasons why Yan Yuanzheng won the trust of the Son of Heaven.

"Mama, go back, you are not in good health, and if you suffer with me, I will feel uneasy."

"How can this be, you are still here, how can the old slave go?"

Xu Wanning persuaded again, and Mama Li said that she would not leave, but she only persuaded her twice, and she went back.

"Mama is walking too fast."

Zhixia was a little dissatisfied in his heart.

Xu Wanning smiled and didn't speak, "Only our master and servant are better, if she is here, then I have to kneel, and now I can still sit." ”

Xu Wanning sat on the futon.

"Madam, when did Mama join the old lady? Didn't the slave see it before? ”

Xu Wanning took her hand: "Maybe I just got married, and she took refuge." ”

"Isn't Madame uncomfortable?"

Zhixia cautiously asked: "The slave knows that you treat your grandmother as a relative, if you are sad, the slave and maid ......."

Xu Wanning shook her head and said softly: "Zhixia, don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Her tears had dried up in her previous life.

"But the slave always felt that the lady didn't care at all."

Even though Madame was smiling on the surface, it seemed that the clouds were light and the wind was light, but Zhixia felt that Madame was very bitter in her heart.

"Is that lady unhappy because of today's events? In fact, even the slave and maid know that it is the general's problem, that he is unwilling to have a round house with his wife, how can he blame the lady, the old lady is unreasonable, don't take it to heart, madam. ”

Xu Wanning shook her head, "I'm really not angry in the summer. ”

She suffered too much in her previous life, even if the old lady humiliated her today, she didn't seem to have any fluctuations in her heart.

Because compared to what she had experienced before, the old lady's methods were not worth mentioning.

"I know it's not my fault."

"The old lady is reluctant to blame her only grandson, and she doesn't dare to blame Xu Wanyu, so she can only blame me, because I have no one behind me."

"So instead of wasting time getting angry, find a way to change the situation."

Zhixia nodded, very much in agreement:

"If only the general could be oriented to Madame, then Madame will have something to rely on in the future, and life will be much better, at least she will not be as angry as she is today."

Xu Wanning was silent, only staring at the tablet above, her eyes were clearly extinguished.

Even Zhixia subconsciously felt that the only thing she could rely on now was Yan Yuanzheng, and she could only go to gain Yan Yuanzheng's favor.

Because Yan Yuanzheng is her husband.

If you think about it carefully, it seems that a woman's life can only be trapped in the inner house.

In the first half of his life, he relied on his father, and in the second half of his life, he could only rely on his husband.

"Zhixia, what he likes is Xu Wanyu, and I don't want to waste any more effort on him, besides, I know that even if he really likes me, he can't protect me."

In her previous life, she had already tried, and this path would not work at all.

Her enemy is Xu Wanyu, the future Xu Jieyu, the only palace concubine of the Son of Heaven, and also the stepmother Yi'an County Lord.

So if she really wants to change the outcome of this life, there is only one person who can help her, and that is the Son of Heaven.

Zhixia was a little puzzled: "Apart from the general, who else can take care of Madame?" ”

Zhixia followed Xu Wanning out of the Hou Mansion, and naturally knew the attitude of the Hou Ye towards his wife.

"I'm not sure yet, but there are some things that I have to try."

Xu Wanning's voice was very soft.

"Summer, how nice it would be if I were a man."

When Xu Wanning was a child, she thought countless times why she was not a man.

If she had been a man, her mother would not have died.

She can also go to study for the imperial examination and make contributions.

The world is vast, and you can fight for whatever you want.

She will also try to be a support for her two older sisters.

It's a pity she's just a woman.

As a woman, she can't even protect herself, let alone her relatives.

Zhixia had never thought about this question before, but she saw Xu Wanning's sadness and hurriedly comforted her:

"Madam, my mother once said that there must be a reason for what God arranged, and the slave and maid also felt the same."

Xu Wanning lowered her eyes and pondered.

After a while, she spoke: "Your mother may be right. ”

Heaven has told her to be a woman, and she should use her strengths.

In the past, she should abandon those three obedience and four virtues, those disciplines, she should be more thorough, and she should not be affected anymore, let alone have any burden for what she will do in the future.

Because she has no way back, let alone a choice.

"Madame just thinks clearly, the slave maid only hopes that Madame can be happier."

Xu Wanning smiled lightly and did not speak.

Only when Xu Wanyu and the others are dead, she may be really happy.

They still have one day to live, and no matter how happy they are, they are afraid that they will be cast a thick shadow.

"Madam, it's really cold in this ancestral hall, fortunately, I can go back to the Hou Mansion tomorrow, so I just need to stay up all night here."

Xu Wanning didn't speak, she would rather kneel here than go back to the Hou Mansion.

But the eldest sister, they will all pass tomorrow.

She also wanted to meet them, the last time they met, it was in a previous life.

"In the past, Master Hou didn't want you to go back, but this time maybe the fourth lady said something."

Xu Wanning nodded, she understood why Xu Wanyu called her back.

They thought they had drunk the bowl of poison, and wanted to make her see the situation of her two sisters clearly, and make her heart even more anxious.

On the second day, someone from the Xu Mansion came to pick her up, and the old lady didn't say a word, and she got into the carriage smoothly.

In her previous life, she married to Yanfu for two years, except for special days such as the elder's birthday and New Year's Festival, it was impossible for her to return to Xufu, let alone go out.

This time it is also because of Xu Wanyu that the old lady will be so happy.

When she returned to Xu's house, she first greeted the old lady.

When she passed, her stepmother and Xu Wanyu happened to be there.

Xu Wanyu sat next to the old lady, and the old lady held her hand, enjoying herself.

Mrs. Xu on the side, her stepmother looked at Xu Wanyu with a gentle smile on her face.

The scene in the house will only feel warm when anyone sees it.

But such a good atmosphere disappeared in an instant with her arrival.

"Greetings to grandmother, mother."

The room was quiet for a few seconds, as if everyone's smiles had faded.

In the years she used to be in the Xu family, she suffered this kind of treatment.

Xu Wanning also knows very well that she will always be an outsider and a superfluous person in the Xu family.

Only the stepmother's father, Xu Wanyu, is a brother and sister, and they are a real family.

The old lady's eyes fell on her, and she only glanced at her lightly, "Well, sit down, it's rare for you to come back." ”

The old lady's tone was cold, as if she were talking to a distant relative she didn't like.

"Your eldest sister and they should also arrive, and today your sisters will have dinner at home before leaving."

"Thank you, grandmother."

Xu Wanning sat down.

Grandmother and grandfather did not like her mother, and naturally did not like her.

The stepmother has a noble status and gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses for the Xu family.

The real daughter-in-law in their hearts is only their stepmother.

Xu Wanning has never given her any good looks since she was a child, and her grandfather and grandmother have never given her any good faces.

But in her previous life, when she was dying of illness, her grandmother suddenly came to visit her.

My grandmother's eyes were red, her attitude was much better than before, and her words were more caring.

A few days later, Xu Wanning heard that her grandmother was crazy.

A few days later, the news of her grandfather's sudden death also reached her.

In just a few days, my grandfather and grandmother, who were in good health, passed away one after another.

At that time, Xu Wanning did not have any sadness in her heart, only happiness.

She knew the mystery of their deaths, but she didn't know the specific reason.
