Early the next morning, Yujia came to the Jin Palace to ask for a meeting with Yulan. Yulan went to the second gate in person to welcome the second sister in. After the incident with Brother Ye, the two sisters became closer, and Yujia

Frankly speaking, he wanted to go back with Yulan to see his eldest sister.

The eldest wife has been in a bad mood recently. She has not been able to forgive the Ding family so far, so Yujia has not dared to go back to her parents' home for fear of being looked down upon by the eldest wife. But with Yulan, there will be no such problem. Yulan

As a princess, the eldest wife, even the eldest mother, must give her enough face.

Yulan also had this plan, so she left Yujia to drink a cup of tea, and then took the maid and her mother-in-law to the Yang Mansion with Yujia. On the carriage, Yujia and Yulan had the same view: "Sister, go back to your parents' home."

There is something fishy about this matter!"

Arriving at the gate of Yang's Mansion, Yujia lifted the curtain and took a look, and said in surprise: "It's the carriage from the Marquis of Ji'an!" Yu Lan also took a look and saw a gorgeous carriage parked in front of the Yang's Mansion.

Decorated with a silver chi embroidered belt, hanging down is green mandarin. This is a regulated treatment that can only be enjoyed by dukes, marquises and first- and second-grade officials.

Yujia also noticed it: "This is the eldest brother-in-law who came to pick up the eldest sister in person!"

Their carriage stopped at the second gate, and what was waiting for them at the hanging flower gate was the pregnant grandma. When she saw Yulan and Yujia getting out of the car, she smiled and stepped forward and said, "Grandma Second Aunt and Grandma Seventh Aunt."

Coming!"

Both Yulan and Yujia were a little surprised.

The eldest grandma said apologetically: "The eldest brother-in-law just came and said that he wanted to take the eldest sister back to his parents' home. The eldest aunt was talking to the eldest brother-in-law about this matter. She was not available for a while, so she asked me to come out to welcome the two aunts! Seven

Auntie, please don’t blame us for being negligent!”

Originally, when the two aunts returned to their parents' home, the eldest grandma was of the same generation, so it was right for her to come out to greet her, but Yulan was carrying the title of princess on her back. That was different. So usually, when Yulan came back, she would

The eldest lady came out to pick her up in person.

Naturally, Yulan didn't care about these little details. The eldest grandma was generous and apologetic, yet not overly humble and stiff. Yulan liked her very much. He smiled and took the eldest grandma's hand and said, "It's nothing, it's worth it."

My sister-in-law said, you are twins now, so you should be more careful!"

The eldest grandma smiled and said: "The mothers all said that I had a good pregnancy and the fetal strength was stable. But my mother still kept me resting in the house all day long. I was bored, but by chance the two aunts came back. If it hadn't been for you

Come back, I can't come out for this trip yet, but I should thank you."

Walking inside while chatting and laughing, the second gate is quite far away from the main courtyard, Yining House, and they usually carry sedan chairs. After listening to the grandmother's words, the two of them walked in with her. It was late autumn anyway, and the weather was not cold.

If it's not hot, it's okay to take a walk.

Logically, they should go in and see the old lady first, but walking along this road, they have to pass by Yiningju. When they walked to the door, Yu Lan and Yu Jia happened to hear a sharp voice coming from inside: "Your Ji'an Marquis Mansion

There are no rules like this, and I will never let Muer go back to be angry with you again! Tell your mother-in-law and let her give up this idea!"

Yulan and Yujia looked at each other, but it was not the voice of the eldest lady. Neither of them stopped in their steps, nor did they show any signs of it on their faces. The eldest lady also pretended not to hear.

Everyone should talk and laugh, but everyone understands that at this time, the Marquis of Ji'an, Lu Zhongheng, wanted to come to take Yu Mu back, but he was the first lady to take the lead.

This time the Marquis of Ji'an took the blame first, and the eldest wife did not agree with Yu Mu's return. She was indeed on the side of truth.

Everyone had their own thoughts. After walking a few steps, the sound of footsteps was heard. The maids looked back and said, "Master Marquis is here!"

They saw the Marquis of Ji'an wearing a navy blue robe, led by a maid, walking from behind. The three female family members stopped and waited for him to approach, and then greeted him: "Brother-in-law!"

The Marquis of Ji'an is thirty years old, and his face is still as beautiful as a jade, and his appearance is very good. At this moment, he has a gentle and elegant face, without the slightest embarrassment or shame of being scolded by the eldest wife, and he politely greets her.

They greet each other.

Yujia and Yumu moved around more, and had more opportunities to meet the Marquis of Ji'an. They smiled and said, "Where are you going, eldest brother-in-law?"

Lawrence Lu smiled and said, "I'm here to take my wife home. I just finished meeting my mother-in-law, and I'm going to meet my wife now."

"Oh!" Such an answer was naturally expected. Yujia raised her hand and said, "Brother-in-law, please go first!"

Marquis Ji'an nodded. He was a foreigner, and he was really not suitable to stay with three female relatives in the inner house. He was about to leave, but stopped and said to Yulan and the other three: "You eldest sister has suffered a lot on weekdays.

I'm sorry, my second aunt, my seventh aunt, and my younger siblings are free. You might as well come and see her more often and talk to her. Mr. Lu is very grateful!" After saying this, he bowed as a courtesy.

Yulan and others avoided it one after another, saying: "This is what it should be!"

Lawrence Lu just left.

Yu Mu lives in a small courtyard behind Yining House. Yu Xin lived here before she left the pavilion. Yu Mu suddenly returned to her parents' home. The eldest wife had no place to put her because she didn't get the news in advance. It happened that Yu Xin had passed away.

The yard where I lived was cleaned by maids and women all year round, so I placed Yu Mu here.

As soon as Lu Zhongheng entered the house, Yu Mu sent all the maids and wives out. "Master Hou!" She struggled to get down to the ground to salute Lu Zhongheng.

Lu Zhongheng is a very old-fashioned and polite person, and he has always been strict with these etiquette requirements. But seeing Yu Mu like this today, he couldn't help but take two steps and hold her down: "You are heavy, so don't come down.

! We don’t need so many rituals between husband and wife!"

Now he really feels that his wife has always been very respectful to him, virtuous and generous, and has taken care of his back house in an orderly manner, without making any mistakes. But he has always been alienated from his wife because of his mother. Now

Looking back, I really feel sorry for her.

He sat down next to Yu Mu's bed. Yu Mu said softly: "Master Hou, you have been wronged! Mother didn't embarrass you too much!" Why did he hire a maid without Yu Mu's consent? Sure enough,

The two of them deliberately staged a show to deceive Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Lu.

Yu Mu took all precautions in the Hou Mansion, but in the end he asked Mrs. Lu Er to tamper with the medicine. Fortunately, Yu Mu was very careful, and she had a woman who knew pharmacology to wait on her. She immediately discovered that the medicine had been tampered with.

After some manipulation, Yu Mu was by no means as easy to control as Mrs. Lu Er thought.

It was not that she couldn't handle this situation, but now that she was six or seven months pregnant, it was too tiring to fight with Mrs. Lu Er. Even if she could win, it would be detrimental to the fetus in her belly. She thought

It would be better to go back to her parents’ house to raise the baby. After discussing it with Lu Zhongheng, it was Lu Zhongheng who came up with such an idea.

It's not impossible for Yu Mu to return to her parents' home, but if she brings it up herself, it will really offend Mrs. Wen's family. In the future, after Yu Mu has given birth to the child, she may not be able to establish herself when she returns to the Hou Mansion. This trick can be used to resolve this issue.

, it’s just that Lu Zhongheng lost a little reputation.

That's why Yu Mu said that he had been wronged. Yu Mu didn't dare to tell the eldest wife about this kind of thing, because she probably didn't have anything nice to say about Lu Zhongheng.

Lu Zhongheng smiled faintly: "As long as our child is born safely, this grievance doesn't matter! You just have to be born in your parents' home to raise the baby. When I return to the Hou Mansion, I will find a way to tidy up the main courtyard! Humph,

How can you allow others to sleep soundly beside the couch?" His face darkened, and he had the power of a superior person coming out of him.

Yu Mu couldn't help but sigh with emotion. After being married to her for so many years, she had a mean mother-in-law, a vicious sister-in-law, and a mother who was holding her back. How much effort she put into winning her husband's heart. To be able to get to this point, she felt

All the suffering I endured in the past was worth it.

Yu Mu hurriedly said: "Master Marquis, please don't do this. You are the lord of the Marquis, and what you have to do is to deal with big things outside. How can you reach into the inner house and leave no excuses for others? For matters related to the inner house, please do it."

Please leave it to me. After I give birth to the child, I will sort out the affairs of the main wife. Please trust me!"

Lu Zhongheng was deeply moved when he saw that his wife was still thinking about him so much. He couldn't help but hold her hand and said: "It's all up to you! You can take good care of yourself in your parents' home. When you give birth to a child, you can move back!"

When the time comes, I will naturally propose to my mother and help you get the housekeeper's rights back!"

Yu Mu nodded and said a little uneasily: "If..."

Lawrence Lu knew what she wanted to say, and said to her very seriously: "Don't worry. Even if this baby is not a son, we can still give birth to another baby. You are still young now, and one day we can give birth to a son.

of!"

After hearing his promise, Yu Mu couldn't help but burst into tears.

Yulan and Yujia went to Songhetang to meet the old lady. The old lady was becoming more and more exhausted and spent most of her time lying on the bed. After all, at her age, medicinal stones were no longer of much use to her.

It's just time. She is increasingly unable to control or control the affairs of the house.

She was very happy to see her two granddaughters coming together and asked her maid to bring them snacks. She also complained that Yulan refused to bring Sister Zhu to show her.

The child was really too young, and Yulan was reluctant to let her ride in the car. She smiled and promised the old lady that she would bring her great-granddaughter to her next time, and the old lady stopped nagging.

The old lady couldn't talk to them for more than a few words before she got tired. The two hurriedly left and went to the eldest lady's place. Thinking that the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law must have a lot to say, they lingered at the eldest lady's place for a while.

The eldest wife is currently busy with the marriage of the second young master Chengye.

The eldest master has chosen a marriage for the second young master. The eldest wife is too lazy to interfere and will not object. She just waits to see the eldest master's joke. If the eldest master can decide this marriage for the second young master, the next step will be from "accepting the lottery" to "accepting the lottery".

As an elder, he was unable to do anything about the six rites of "welcome in person", and in the end he had to leave it to the eldest lady to handle.

Naturally, the eldest wife was unwilling, but since the old man was back, the eldest lady did not dare to be too presumptuous, so she could only take it as if she had swallowed a fly. One of the husband and wife did not want to ask the other to take care of it, and the other simply did not want to do it.

Not willing to take over this matter, it can be imagined that the second young master's marriage was naturally full of bumps and bumps.

The eldest man originally wanted his eldest wife to invite the wife of the Korean prince, who was the second wife's sister-in-law, to be the matchmaker, but the eldest wife took it upon herself to directly invite a Hanlin lady from the seventh rank. The eldest man was so angry that he fell down...

After procrastinating for several months, the wedding date was finally set, which is February next year.

Ever since the fourth master and his family moved into the Yang Mansion, the fourth wife had always been a bit petty, and she and the eldest wife had always been at loggerheads. There had been a lot of friction between the two sisters, and the eldest wife was not as angry as usual.

After chatting for a while, we finally went to the backyard to see Yu Mu.

When Yu Mu encountered such a thing, the two of them naturally offered kind words to comfort her. However, Yu Lan and Yu Jia were both very smart, and no one advised Yu Mu to move back. The three sisters talked and laughed, and then

After exchanging some parenting experiences, Yu Lan had been away from the palace for a long time and was thinking about her daughter very much. She went to sit with the fifth wife and then returned home.

Yujia went to the second wife's place.

When Yu Lan returned home, she went inside to see her daughter. She saw her daughter sleeping in the loft with a flushed face, and then she put her heart down.

He called the wet nurse outside and asked about the child's feeding situation. After she left, the child drank milk twice and peed once. He thought there was nothing wrong with it, so he took a needle and thread and sat under the south window of the Nuan Pavilion to make a baby.

Clothes. When you look up, you can see your daughter sleeping soundly.

The baby is still wearing clothes made by the embroiderer in the house, and some clothes were made and sent by several sisters. The eldest sister, the second sister and the fourth sister all sent some old clothes worn by their own children - this

The custom still exists in modern times. It is said that it is better for children to wear old clothes worn by others.
