Chapter 128
Yu Xiang sat down with his brother and said goodbye, and then he learned that Lin helped the third family testify to smear Yu Pinyan. He was so angry that he almost bit his silver teeth.
"Now the three brides and family have been in the capital for almost a month, and they live in the courtyard opposite the Yongle Marquis' Mansion. They run to calm down every day. In order to overthrow the prime minister and completely eliminate the power of the prince in the court, the fans of the fifth prince and the sixth prince tried their best to promote this matter. Many people have rumored that Yu Junwei can not only restore his post, but also inherit the title of Yongle Marquis, and his eldest son's fame can also be restored. The three brides will be the most prominent lineage in the Yu family in the future. The clan members who were remediated by Yu Pinyan are now gathered by Yu Junwei, and they are very tempted to praise him as the clan leader. He is not as cruel as Yu Pinyan. After he comes back, he takes Lin and Yu Miaoqi to the mansion for care. He also visits the old lady every day, saying that he wants to support her." Shen Yuanqi slowly said the recent situation of the Yu family.
Yu Xiang heard it and said ruthlessly, "What a three-person room, this is deliberately angering my ancestors. I am so arrogant before I can get the power. When they cry in the future, I always think Lin still has some feelings for his brother, but I didn't expect that she would slander his reputation as soon as she learned that his brother had died. Is he treating his brother as a son or an enemy? He doesn't even eat his son, and she is not even as good as a beast!"
Shen Yuanqi was extremely despised by what Lin did, but he was not up to his sister's favor, and joked, "Yu Pinyan has a mother who is worse than beasts, a kind-hearted and righteous sister. When God saw him being pitiful, he helped him find a supplement and gave him a child bride who values love and righteousness. Shen Yuanqi, the only one, is the most pitiful, leaving only a relative who always turns out with his elbow. He flew away without leaving a word, making me worry and sleepless every day."
Yu Xiang was very despicable by him and hugged him and joked. After getting along with each other for a long time, he felt that they had similar personalities. The restraint and alienation at the time had long been replaced by intimacy.
After coaxing his brother, Yu Xiang immediately prepared a gift and went to the suburbs of Beijing to visit the old lady.
On the other side, Yu Miaoqi was dressing up in the room. Behind her were two beautiful girls, both of whom were bought by Yu Junwei's wife Zhuo.
"Miss, which set of these sets of heads do you like?" The two girls were holding two boxes in their hands, containing luxurious heads and faces decorated with gems and pearls.
Although the third house had just returned to the capital, because Yu Junwei was expected to regain his post and regain his title, and because the two princes deliberately attracted him, there were endless dignitaries and nobles coming to visit, and at the same time, they also sent many valuable property. They suffered a few years in Shu, and when they came back, they only carried a few packages, which looked very depressed. However, in a month, they had everything. Just when the emperor issued an edict to rehabilitate the injustice, they could open the Yongle Marquis Mansion opposite and move in with glamorous charm.
Therefore, although these sets of heads are expensive, they are nothing to a three-bedroom family.
Yu Miaoqi pointed to the phoenix jade head and face, which was so skillful, and said in a whispering voice, "Wear this outfit, it matches my skirt."
The girl hurriedly took out her head and face to help her get off her hair one by one. At that time, Lin lifted the curtain and walked to the dressing table to say something but stopped. In just a few months, she was so thin that she looked extremely thin. Her originally fair skin was dry and yellow, and her forehead had even more wrinkles, and she looked like she was aged for decades.
When Yu Miaoqi saw the interest in her eyes, she waved her hand and sent away a few girls, and said impatiently, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, I just feel uneasy when I'm alone, so I'll come and see you." Lin sighed while sitting on the embroidered dock, his face full of confusion and helplessness.
"Then look good. I will soon be in Phoenix Yu Fei, your daughter." Yu Miaoqi touched the phoenix hairpin ring made of jade and gold wire on her head with her fingertips. She spoke in a very proud tone. "When everything is settled, that person will take me into the palace. With my credit, I can be a concubine at least. When I become successful, I will let the old thing welcome you back in a glorious way. You must keep the divorce letter very well. Then I will let her swallow it alive!"
"Don't, don't anger my ancestors. She is my mother-in-law and your grandmother." Lin waved her hands repeatedly and said worriedly, "Before Yan'er's body was cold, I helped the third room slander his reputation. Will your father blame me if he knew about it?"
"Didn't you tell you? Now my status is too low. Only by forming an alliance with the third uncle can you compete with other noble daughters. If you help the third uncle regain the title, he sent me into the palace, we just use each other. In the future, I will give birth to the prince and ascend to the throne, and I will definitely wash away the grievances of the eldest brother. I still remember the third uncle's murder of the eldest brother back then, and I will never spare him. At that time, I will only say that the third uncle used my life to force you to falsely accuse your parents of the family, and others will understand. If my eldest brother has no descendants, I will definitely adopt a child of excellent qualifications from the clan and give it to you to raise him to inherit the eldest brother's title. You don't need to care about the slander of outsiders, and you don't have to worry about the third uncle's family, as your daughter will solve it." Yu Miaoqi explained patiently.
After hearing this, Lin kept silent and just squeezed his handkerchief to wipe his tears.
Zhuo's sharp voice came from outside the door, and Yu Miaoqi quickly sat down and tidied her hair in front of the mirror.
"Qi'er, have you dressed up? Well, let's go now." Zhuo lifted the curtain and walked around Yu Miaoqi twice, exclaiming, "Qi'er really has a good appearance. No wonder the noble man likes it very much. I'll give you a lot of instructions and let me take good care of you. Do you like the fourth pair of heads that I just sent? I don't like to let the shopkeeper of Jinxiu Pavilion go there again and pick it until you are satisfied."
"Aunt Xie, Miaoqi likes it very much. Can you please bring me a message?" Yu Miaoqi's cheeks turned red and her eyes were shy.
"Take it, let you wait with peace of mind. As long as you do this, he will definitely welcome you into the palace with eight-carrying sedan chairs." Zhuo smiled sincerely, but there was endless ridicule in his eyes. The man made friends with Yu Miaoqi, but in order to deal with Yu Pinyan, Yu Miaoqi is now dead, so Yu Miaoqi is optional. Not to mention eight-carrying sedan chairs, it would be good to remember her.
If the master hadn't wanted to send a woman from the Yu family into the palace with the idea of clinging to the new emperor; if his daughter had not been married in Shu; if Yu Miaoqi had indeed looked beautiful and elegant, she would never have accommodated the mother and daughter.
Yu Miaoqi seemed to be touched, and she lowered her eyes slightly and smiled slightly.
The two of them put on their makeup again, ignored Lin's carriage and headed straight to the suburbs of Beijing. The third room finally got through and naturally had to exclaim their anger in front of the old lady. Zhuo's direct advice to the old lady to live with them, but in fact, every sentence was about Yu Pinyan's death, and he wanted to turn the old lady into a genius.
They brought many servants and easily broke open the door to the inner hall. The old lady was drinking medicine. Seeing the person clearly, she smashed the medicine bowl and scolded, "Bitch, you still dare to come!"
"Mom calms down and don't vomit blood again like last time. Look at where you live, the walls are moldy. Why not go home with me? The master has received the news. In three days, his official position and the order of his successor will be coming down, and the seal on the door of the Yongle Marquis' Mansion can also be lifted. You have lived there for a lifetime, so you should go back." Zhuo avoided the medicine bowl and sat on the chair of the Grand Master to talk to himself.
"Grandmother, no matter who is in charge of the Marquis' Mansion, you are our elders. We will definitely be filial to you. Although the eldest brother has gone, there is also Brother Hong. Both brothers are your legitimate grandsons." Yu Miaoqi sat next to Zhuo and smiled slightly. The brother Hong she mentioned was Yu Junwei's legitimate son Yu Pinhong. She is now reviewing books at home and preparing to re-enter the career of the government.
The old lady was so angry that her heart was so painful that she roared, "Come on, beat these two damn things out!" However, the servants of the Marquis' Mansion walked away and scattered, and the rest were all old, weak, women and children. She was really unable to meet the young servants brought by the third room.
The servants pushed and shoved Yu Miaoqi and Zhuo were still interested in drinking tea and watching opera, and their posture was very leisurely. Yu Siyu rushed over when she heard the news. As soon as she reached the fork in the road, she saw the door open again. Yu Xiang came in a bright red long dress with golden silk embroidered vermicelli.
A gust of wind blew, brushing the strong fragrance of flowers on Yu Siyu's face. She couldn't help but take a deep breath and shouted in surprise, "Xiang'er? Are you back?"
"I'm back." Yu Xiang was about to raise his lips, but when he heard the noise in the inner hall, his face immediately became gloomy.
"Who is so bold to fight with my ancestor?" She untied the whip with a barbarian on her waist and whipped it hard at a servant.
The man immediately covered his face and howled, and blood gushed out from his fingers. Everyone was quiet for a moment, and involuntarily separated a passage, allowing her to walk to the hall.
"Xiang'er? Is it you Xiang'er?" The old lady stared at her in disbelief.
"It's me. Ancestor, I'm here to see you!" She quickly stepped forward and hugged the old lady, lying in her ear and whispered, "Brother is fine, now he has defeated the Western Yi army and returned to the court, and he will arrive in the capital the day after tomorrow. The emperor has his own arrangements, so don't make a statement now!"
The old lady was shocked, then hugged her and cried bitterly, and repented while crying, "Xiang'er, you can come to see me. I'm so confused that I did something wrong. Don't hold a grudge against me!"
"How could I hold a grudge against no one, I can't hold a grudge against my own ancestors. We will always be a family." Yu Xiang felt something, and his eyes slowly turned red.
Yu Siyu pushed the servant away and walked over, and the three grandparents hugged each other and cried bitterly.
"Yu Xiang, you are finally here. I thought you would never plan to recognize your grandmother in your life." Yu Miaoqi broke the scene of the three reunion.
"I recently had a relapse in my leg injury and needed medical treatment, so it was delayed for several months. I am not like you, I am a ungrateful and ungrateful wolf." Yu Xiang helped the old lady sit upright, poured her a cup of ginseng tea, and then spoke slowly.
Yu Miaoqi was furious and was about to refute, but when he heard Zhuo sneer, "Yu Xiang, oh no, look at my memory, I should be called Shen Xiang now. Your surname is Shen, our surname is Yu, why should you interfere in the family affairs of the Yu family? He even hurt my servants as soon as he came. You have such a big face. Do you really think that you are the third lady of the Yongle Marquis' Mansion?"
I didn't think I was the third lady of the Marquis's mansion, I just thought I was the serious lady of the Marquis's mansion. Of course, Yu Xiang could not speak out, so he could only cover his mouth and smile, "I have a big face. Mrs. Zhuo forgot that although I am not the third lady of the Marquis's mansion, I still have the title of Sinong Township Jun on my head. If you have a grade, you will kneel down and bow when you see me."
...
Zhuo and Yu Miaoqi were stunned, their expressions seemed to have swallowed hundreds of flies.
