199 Auntie's Death
On the fifth day of June, the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Today was the day when Yang Chengzu ordered the wine. Yulan followed Ye Yichen by car back to Yang Mansion early in the morning.
When the carriage arrived at the door of the second gate, the eldest master and his wife, the second master and his wife, and the fifth master and his wife all came out to welcome them. Behind them were the eldest girl Yumu and his wife, the fourth girl Yufei and his wife, the ninth girl Yuqing, as well as Chengzu, Chengye, and Cheng
The three brothers of Zong are not unceremonious. Normally, Ye Yichen and Yulan are juniors, and the elders do not need to go out to greet them. But with Ye Yichen's status, who can really treat him as an ordinary junior?
As soon as Ye Yichen got out of the car, holding Yu Lan's hand, everyone came to greet him. The men gathered around Ye Yichen to chat, and several ladies talked around Yu Lan. The second wife laughed: "Our Mrs. An Guo is back!"
The eldest lady is also smiling. This
Although the daughter did not crawl out of her belly, she still had to be called mother during rituals. Now that she has become famous, the eldest wife is also like Yourong. The most important thing is that she has a good relationship with Yuxin, and she has become the princess.
, and can also help Yuxin a little.
This is also the first time Yulan has returned to the palace after marrying into the palace, except for the time when she returned home. According to the rules, the bride always runs to her parents' house when she gets married. Those who don't know better think that the bride has been offended by her husband's family.
Yulan smiled and took the second wife's hand: "Big brother has decided on a happy day, how can I not come back!" When everyone saw that she had become a princess, she didn't look arrogant and complacent at all. How was it when she was at her parents' house? Now,
It was still the same. Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If she really acted like a princess, everyone would inevitably feel embarrassed.
When Yu Fei saw Yulan holding the moon, deep jealousy and helplessness flashed through her eyes. People are lucky, look at Ye Yichen looking at Mr. Niu, she will never be able to compete with her in this life!
After saying a few words, he was led inside. After entering the door, it was natural to go to see the old lady first. In Songhe Hall, Yu Lan saw the old lady wearing a bright red tunic with flowers, sitting on the couch, looking quite happy on her happy day.
The son was excited, but his face was very bad. It had been two years since the old lady had been ill, and she never recovered. Everyone in the Yang family had long been mentally prepared.
The old lady is afraid of both cold and heat, and her health deteriorates in summer. But she is weak and cannot use ice in the house, which makes her even more difficult.
The old lady was also happy when she saw Yulan coming back. She stood up and bowed to Ye Yichen. Ye Yichen was a little indifferent to others and always had some pride in his status. But he was very polite to the old lady: "Old
Madam, please stop being so polite. It's the juniors who should kowtow to you!"
Yulan stepped forward to support the old lady and helped her sit on the couch. Ye Yichen and Yulan knelt down together and kowtowed to the old lady. "Get up, get up!" The old lady saw that they were advancing and retreating together, and their attitude was cordial.
, very happy.
After the ceremony, Ye Yichen said a few greetings and then followed the men to the outer courtyard.
The old lady pulled Yulan and asked her to sit next to her. Yulan said: "How is your health, grandma? My granddaughter will miss you every day in the palace!" This is not entirely a show, although she can't go back to the palace every day, but
Every other day, she would always send a woman to come over and say hello to the old lady.
The old lady was also very satisfied with her, and said very openly: "I am getting older, and my life is getting shorter and shorter, so I urge my grandson to get married as soon as possible. As long as you serve the prince well and live a happy life, I will also
There’s nothing to worry about anymore!”
Yulan consoled him: "Grandma, please don't say that. You are very lucky! When your eldest brother gets married, you will have to hold your great-grandson in a few days!"
The old lady asked her to talk happily: "I want to hug my great-grandson, and I also want to hug my great-grandson!" The old lady looked at Yu Lan, lowered her voice and said: "Aren't you still silent now? How is the prince treating you?"
When the second wife saw it, she joked to the side: "Old lady, look at how anxious you are. We have just been married less than a month ago, how can it be so soon! The prince treats his aunt and grandma very well, you didn't see it just now
The intimacy they felt when they got off the bus, tsk tsk tsk...
..." He vividly told the old lady how Ye Yichen took Yulan's hand out of the car and how he was gentle and considerate to her. Of course, there was an element of intentional exaggeration in it, but Ye Yichen's willingness to show this gesture also proved that he cared about her.
Yu Lan is really doting on me.
The old lady had just seen that the young couple were very close to each other, and she was even more happy to hear what the second wife said. The second wife said: "The prince dotes on my aunt so much, are you afraid that you won't have a great grandson?"
Yulan's face turned red as she talked about it. She said coquettishly, "Second aunt, you are making fun of me again."
Yuqing was extremely envious on the side. It didn’t matter that Yulan married into a high class, but it was not an ordinary blessing to marry into such a high class and for the prince to love her and pamper her so much. Look at the fourth sister Yu Fei, she was considered a lowly person at the beginning.
She is married, but her fourth brother-in-law is cold and indifferent to her, and she is really incomparable to her seventh sister.
The old lady said: "You are smart and sensible. The prince loves you and respects you. This is what you should do. However, if you want to truly gain a foothold in the prince's palace, you must give birth to a son." As soon as the old lady said this, the eldest lady,
The second wife and other people who came here all nodded in agreement.
The second wife even said directly: "The old lady's words of wisdom can never be more reasonable! My aunt will give birth to a little prince for us as soon as possible. This is the most important thing!" The emperor had made a decree before, Ye Yichen
The step-concubine gave birth to a son and would be named the county king in the future. Therefore, as long as Yulan could give birth, her child would not have to worry about the future prospects at all!
A woman spends her whole life fighting desperately in the back house for nothing more than two things, one is money and the other is the future of her children. When Yulan married into the palace, she didn't need to do anything. She had both of them.
, I really envy all the female relatives!
Yulan is now young and beautiful, and behaves appropriately and generously. It is easy to capture Ye Yichen's heart. But when she is old and yellow, will Ye Yichen still treat her like he does now? In fact, Yulan himself has no confidence! But when it comes to Yulan
If you don’t have any illusions that there is “true love” between her and the prince, you are deceiving yourself!
Yulan had other considerations. Her current body was still too young, and the medical conditions in ancient times were so poor. Giving birth to a child would mean going through hell. Yulan still wanted to wait two more years, until her body was fully developed before giving birth. It would be dangerous at that time.
Sexuality can be reduced. But I can't say this clearly, I can only lower my head and pretend to be shy.
Seeing her blushing cheeks and lowering her head like a little daughter-in-law, everyone couldn't help but join in a few jokes, and for a while the Songhe Hall burst into laughter. She also said a few words, "First lady, the second lady has to go to the front to greet the guests.
Then he said goodbye to Yulan and went out. Yulan came again
After chatting with the old lady for a few words, the old lady was in low spirits and yawned several times. Yulan said: "Grandma is tired, please rest. I will go to the fifth aunt to see Brother Cheng." The fifth wife
My son was less than one year old and was named Cheng Geer.
Before leaving, Yulan took a long ebony box from Xiaoyue's hand and handed it to Su's mother: "This is a little tribute from my granddaughter. Old lady, you can use it first. When you are finished, my granddaughter will ask someone to give it to you."
deliver!"
After saying this, he said goodbye to the old lady and went to Jichunxuan with the fifth wife.
Mother Su opened the box and saw a ginseng tree. The ginseng had extremely long whiskers. It looked like it was old and was extremely precious. Mother Su was also quite knowledgeable. She had never seen such a big ginseng before, so she couldn't help but be surprised. This was a real ginseng.
What a good thing!
During these days, Yu Lan did not go to Songhe Hall to say goodbye, but instead brought medicinal materials, such as cordyceps, ginseng, and fleece-flower root, in boxes and boxes from the palace to Songhe Hall. Although the Yang family was rich, the old man was an honest official.
, and strict restrictions on their children and grandchildren, so the family's financial resources are not that strong. The old lady takes these precious tonics as if she wants to eat, but she is really unable to do so.
This shows Yulan's filial piety. The old lady is not happy about such a little thing, but from this incident, it can be seen that Yulan has established a foothold in the palace. If the prince does not pamper her, she cannot put these things into consideration.
Rare medicinal materials are moved home every day.
Mother Su carefully put away the ginseng. She helped the old lady lie down on the couch and whispered, "Grandma Qi Gu is so filial!"
Yulan and Mrs. Wu were the best, but it was not convenient to talk to her alone on the day she returned home. Today she finally found an excuse. They talked and laughed along the way, and soon arrived at Jichunxuan. Mrs. Wu invited her to stay in Dongci
He sat down on the kang next to the window, and asked the maid to bring tea and fruits, and asked someone to bring Brother Cheng over.
The fifth wife took Yulan's hand and sighed: "Back then, my parents suddenly regretted their marriage, and I felt deeply sorry for you. Now that you are married, and seeing that you and the prince are in love and happy, I feel relieved." The fifth wife said.
Not to mention Yulan, I have almost forgotten Xie Zhiyuan.
When the Xie family suddenly came to break off the engagement, they refused to explain the reason. It was true that Ye Yichen was causing trouble in the middle, but it was not convenient to explain it to the fifth wife at this time. She felt a little guilty. When the fifth wife saw her acting strangely, she couldn't help but wonder.
Said: "What's wrong?"
Yulan said hurriedly: "It's nothing, nothing! When the fifth aunt helped me choose the Xie family, she was thinking about me. How could I blame you!"
The fifth wife couldn't help but shook her head and sighed: "You are very lucky! But this child Zhiyuan is not worthy of you!" Xie Zhiyuan can be considered young and promising, but compared to Ye Yichen, he is nothing.
It was not convenient to go further on this topic. The two of them turned to something else and chatted for a while. Yulan said, "I came back this time, but I have something to do, and I want to ask my fifth aunt to help."
The fifth wife was surprised. With Yulan's current status and the prince's overwhelming power, there was nothing that the couple could not do and asked to be here with their aunt. The fifth wife said: "What can you do?
Even so, I will definitely help if I can!"
Seeing that the fifth wife looked like she was facing a formidable enemy, Yulan smiled and comforted her: "It's nothing serious!" It turned out that Yulan, in addition to taking care of housework in the palace these days, also spent a lot of time organizing her dowry.
.Although this amount of money is nothing in the eyes of the prince, it is still an astronomical sum.
Ma Fu is still very efficient in doing things. He has sold some properties and shops intermittently in the past few days. The fields are all good fertile fields, and the shops are also in excellent locations. The property deeds and land deeds have also been handed over to Yu Lan.
.Then the problem came. Yulan had too much property, but only three people were married to the palace. Yulan suddenly had no one to use.
The palace's property is ten times larger than Yulan's, and the management is ready. However, because the dowry is Yulan's private property, Ye Yichen cannot interfere, so Yulan has no choice but to go to her parents' house for help. Ordinarily, she should ask the eldest wife, but Yulan is very interested in her.
The wife was really worried. Yulan had met all the people she gave to the third room, and they were basically unreliable. Yulan had no choice but to go to the fifth wife and ask her to recommend some village bosses to help with the management.
An inheritance of seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver.
It is not considered out of bounds for an aunt to give orders to her niece.
Yulan said: "I want Aunt Wu to do things properly, so I shamelessly come to ask you!" Mrs. Wu understood what Yulan meant when she heard it. She smiled and said: "It's not a big deal, it's just a matter of spending more money."
Time, please feel free to wait for my news."
Yu Lan was overjoyed: "Then I'll be relieved. Aunt Five still loves me!"
Just as she was talking, the nanny came in with Brother Cheng in her arms. Brother Cheng was sleeping in a bright red swaddling clothes. The child was growing well, with a flushed face and chubby little fists that were pink and cute. He was holding them tightly and resting them on his cheeks. Five
When the wife saw that her son had no eyes, she became tender.
Yu Lan carefully took Brother Cheng and held him in her arms. He poked his face with her fingers but he didn't wake up, which was strange for a moment. "Brother Cheng sleeps so soundly. He doesn't wake up no matter how hard he hugs him!"
The fifth wife looked on and laughed: "I like it so much, so hurry up and have one of your own!"
Yulan smiled: "Having a baby is a big deal, I have to plan for it in advance!" Yulan didn't dare to hold her too much, so she handed it back to the fifth wife, and asked the girl to bring a long-life lock made of pure gold and give it to the wet nurse, etc.
When he woke up, he took care of him. After teasing the child for a while, and seeing that the time was almost up, he asked the wet nurse to carry Brother Cheng down.
I have to go to the garden for a wedding banquet in a while.
After Yulan and the fifth wife had tidied up, and were about to go out to the back garden, a woman came over in a hurry and reported: "The fifth wife, the seventh aunt, the second wife invites you two to go to Yiningju!"
Seeing her panic, the fifth wife couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"
The woman said: "The eldest man and his wife are having a quarrel!"
Yulan couldn't help but hold her forehead. Today is the wedding banquet planned by the eldest son of the second wife. The eldest man and his wife really know how to find a time. When is it bad to quarrel, but at this time!
The two looked at each other and quickened their pace together. The eldest man and his wife had embarrassed the entire Yang family, including Yu Lan and the fifth wife.
As soon as they arrived at the main courtyard, they heard the elder's roar coming from inside: "You vicious woman, tell me, what on earth did you do to Aunt Liu?"
Then the angry voice of the eldest lady sounded: "I still remember that bitch now, and I don't even look at what she has done! If you ask me, a restless person like her should die cleanly! So that she doesn't stay here to do bad things.
The Yang family’s family tradition has changed!”
Yu Lan saw Miss Ninth standing timidly in the yard, and quickly walked over and asked, "Sister Ninth, what happened? Why did the master and his wife start a quarrel?"
Yuqing took Yulan's hand and said, "Sister Qi, I don't know what happened! It seems that someone came up from my wife's house and said that Aunt Liu has died of illness!"
Chapter completed!
