Qing Wu Red House

Chapter 163 No complaints and no regrets

March of the eighth year of Hong Zhen was bound to be a month of ups and downs for the Rongguo Mansion.In the past two days, the whole mansion still had the dream of becoming a descendant, but in these two days, they were beaten from the clouds to the ground.

Emperor Hongzhen's imperial decree was clearly issued, and people saw it all the way from the palace to Yang Dadu's mansion.And the imperial decree read aloud in Yang's Metropolitan Governor's Mansion made even more serious people listen to it.If it is said that the dignitaries all over the capital are in a state of shock, then for the Rongguo Mansion, it is a bolt from the blue.

Mother Jia stared at Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng and others who were in the room with frustrated faces, and said in a deep voice, "Have you not heard from your mother yet? Don't you all greet Manager Xia with good food and drink on weekdays? How did you get here?" Right now, it’s actually useless at all.”

"Return to mother's words!" Jia Zheng sighed: "My son has invited Lian'er to inquire, and there must be news at this moment." Persuading some empresses. The names of queens and noble concubines are useless, and the most important thing is to give birth to Lin'er for the emperor as soon as possible."

Mrs. Xing replied: "What mother said is true. Since ancient times, how many empresses have had a good death. If the daughter-in-law says, it is the best policy to let the eldest girl hold the emperor firmly!"

Although Jia's mother has always disliked this eldest daughter-in-law, she feels that she is not on stage.Even though she knew that she was a little gloating now, but this time it fits: "The eldest daughter-in-law is still right, and the second family, once you have a conversation with the empress, you should be more consoling." .”

At this moment, Mrs. Wang was so painful that she couldn't feel it, she just nodded obediently.Just in a daze, Jia Lian strode in from the outside.Mother Jia cheered up, and quickly asked, "Have you seen that Father-in-law Xia, is your mother okay?"

Jia Lian actually didn't want to ask for help for such a thing, but he also knew that although his biological mother's surname was Yang.Now the Yang family has also admitted the existence of a grandson like himself.But after all, his surname is Jia, and he is the future heir of the Rongguo Mansion.I and this huge Rongguo Mansion are tied together, one prospers and one prospers, one loses all.

So he couldn't turn a blind eye to Jia Zheng's orders.I could only run around in my heart, and at this time, when I heard Jiamu's question, she hurriedly said: "Going back to the ancestors, Xia Gonggong and grandson did not see it, but because the third young master of the Yang family, Yang Chengping, and his grandson had a little bit of trouble on the battlefield. It’s kind of friendly, and then I asked some things.”

After listening to Jia Lian's words.Jia Amnesty couldn't help snorting, and said angrily: "I see that you and the Yang family are not only friends on the battlefield, but this time your eldest sister didn't get the queen. I'm afraid you are happy with it."

Jia Lian looked at his father, although as a son he couldn't disobey his father, but the coldness in his eyes made Jia's mother startled.Jia's mother shouted at Jia Amnesty angrily: "what nonsense, let's listen to Lian'er."

Only then did Jia Lian look away from his father.Continued: "The grandson heard from Yang Chengping that her eldest aunt only returned to the Yang family in the past few days, and put aside the previous feud with Governor Yang. And the emperor's imperial decree also made it clear that the meeting will be held in a month's time. Let the Yang family prepare properly for the post-establishment ceremony."

Mother Jia pondered: "So, this matter is already settled?" Jia Lian shook her head, "My grandson doesn't know, but my grandson thinks that if it is true, it is probably best for the eldest sister to show respect to the new queen as soon as possible. chosen."

Mrs. Wang said excitedly: "Your eldest sister has worked so hard for so many years, and she is finally going to pay off. How can she give up so easily? Lian'er may have ulterior motives for saying such things. Don't say that auntie didn't remind you. Even you and Na Yang The Jia family has something to do with it, and in the end he is also the son of our Jia family!"

"Shut up!" Jia Zheng saw that his wife was speechless.He hurriedly shouted: "What do you, a woman, know, why don't you hurry up and shut up!" Then Mrs. Wang seemed to understand what she said, and hurriedly lowered her head, a little embarrassing.

Jia Lian didn't have the anger Mrs. Wang had expected, but just smiled lightly and said, "Auntie is right. We and the Yang family are also considered relatives by marriage. Why am I the person who should know the most, but I have been confused until today. Well. If Auntie is really doing the best for the eldest sister, you should think about it carefully." As he spoke, Jia Lian saluted Jia Mu and the others: "After a busy day, my grandson is also tired. I'm leaving now!"

After Jia Lian withdrew, Jia's mother looked at Jia She, and said angrily, "You are so good and you care about the husband and wife. I'm afraid you don't know the reason why you left you that day." He was full of dissatisfaction, but he still complied with Jia Mu's words.

Jia Lian went into his small courtyard full of anger, and saw Wang Xifeng eating fruit with his eldest sister and fat brother.Fat guy is still young, even if he just eats a piece of fruit, he gets covered all over his body, making the maids and women in the room laugh.

Jia Lian's full of depression disappeared without a trace in an instant, and a smile could not help but rise on his face.Ping'er turned around and saw him, and said with a smile, "When will the second master come back, he didn't say anything."

Before Jia Lian could speak, the eldest sister had already walked over quickly: "Daddy is back, but he has already eaten. The shrimps that my mother, brother and I ate today are very delicious. I let the girl in the small kitchen We keep it for daddy, daddy want to taste it?"

Jia Lian was even more in a good mood when he heard the immature voice of the elder sister and seeing the fat brother calling him.He picked up the elder sister and said with a smile: "Elder sister still remembers Daddy, okay, Daddy is hungry."

At this time, Wang Xifeng had already washed her hands, and when she heard Jia Lian's words, she asked in surprise, "It's already this hour, could it be that you haven't had dinner yet?" Then he said to Ping'er, "Go to the small kitchen to order With one sound, steam the Wuchang fish sent by Miss Lin, and then make some side dishes for wine."

Jia Lian waved his hand: "Where is the need for such a trouble, just serve the prawns that my eldest sister left for me, and then have the evening vegetarian porridge." Wang Xifeng said: "How can it be done? We couldn't ask for it on the battlefield, and we finally returned home. No, it’s not enough to have some elaborate meals. Second Master, stop arguing and just listen to me. The fish that Sister Lin sent today is very fresh, and even the fat brother has eaten several chopsticks."

Jia Lian smiled without saying a word, and let Wang Xifeng and Heping'er busy making food, only feeling warm in his heart in such a situation.A thought suddenly came to Jia Lian's mind. Looking at Wang Xifeng, he suddenly said, "Say, let's move out?"

Wang Xifeng was taken aback.Looking at the maids and women in the room, after they all went down, he said: "Why did the second master have such an idea? Could it be that the master has made things difficult for you today." Jia Lian snorted, "It's too embarrassing to talk about. I'm just a little bored."

Wang Xifeng sighed: "I'm still talking peacefully at home. After Big Sister Yang's letter, I'm afraid Second Master will be hated by his wife for a while. By the way, has Second Master ever met that Big Sister Yang?"

Jia Lian nodded: "Of course I saw it, and we met before, let's guess. Who is it?"

Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lian in surprise. Judging from Jia Lian's tone, it seemed that this person was very familiar with them.Who is the one?Wang Xifeng shook her head slowly: "I can't guess it, Second Master, don't be fooled, tell me quickly!"

Jia Lian sighed deeply: "It's Mrs. Chu whom I met in Yangzhou!"

Wang Xifeng's eyes widened immediately, and he looked at Jia Lian in disbelief: "The second master said, Mr. Chu..." Jia Lian nodded, "I'm afraid it is. However, you have to keep this secret carefully and don't talk nonsense. "

Wang Xifeng sighed: "Who can I talk to, second master don't worry!" As soon as the words fell, she suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "No. Could it be that we don't even tell Sister Lin?"

"I thought Hao Rui might have known about it a long time ago. The two of them appeared on the Annan battlefield one after the other. Both Prince Wen and the Yang family listened to their opinions. I felt strange at the time Very good. Later, I heard that Tianyou disappeared from the palace examination field, and he didn’t even get the top three, and the old master sent someone to the Annan battlefield, so I thought it was not easy.” Jia Lian thought about this series of things, I feel that a lot of things have already been figured out.It's just that I haven't thought about it carefully.

Wang Xifeng sighed: "Who would have thought of this, and the second master doesn't have to worry too much. Let's eat quickly, and we have to go to the Yamen tomorrow!" Now Jia Lian has started to go to the military camp for training every day. If it weren't for some troubles at home these few days, he would often have to rest in the barracks and not return home.

And in the herb garden, Daiyu was also in shock.

It was only when she saw Madam Chu again on the edge of the painting screen that she realized why Chu Tianyou had offended the current Holy Majesty, so that's why she couldn't be ranked among the top three.If you commit a major event, you don't have the credit on the battlefield.All these are nonsense, the real reason is that Chu Tianyou has changed from a simple student to the most honorable person in the world.

"Aunt Chu...no, empress..." Daiyu said softly.

Mrs. Chu smiled and said: "What empress, Miss Lin, it's better to call me auntie." Seeing Mrs. Chu's still calm and beautiful smile, Daiyu smiled relaxedly: "I can't react for a while, Made my aunt laugh."

"God You still won't come to see me?" Mrs. Chu smiled bitterly when she saw that Daiyu was only followed by a few girls.Seventh Mammy persuaded from the side: "Master, don't be sad, the young master just finds it hard to accept for a while."

"My own son, there's no reason why I don't understand it. He blames me for hiding from him all these years!" Mrs. Chu sighed softly.Daiyu winked at Zijuan, and seeing that the little girls had gone out, she walked forward: "Auntie, don't be sad, brother Chu is meeting Yang Dadu in the front hall with his brother, I'm afraid it will take a while to see you." Come over here."

Mrs. Chu pulled Daiyu to sit beside her, smiled softly and said, "As early as the first time I saw you, I knew you were a girl with a good heart. Tianyou grew up alone since she was a child. It's rare to have a friend like Hao Rui. He treats you brothers and sisters as relatives, but now that he has a different status, you should not stay away from him."

Only then did Daiyu understand what Mrs. Chu was worried about, and hurriedly said, "Auntie filtered it out. Big brother Chu and big brother are life-and-death friends, and he has saved Daiyu's life many times. As long as big brother Chu doesn't stay far away from our brothers and sisters, we brothers and sisters Naturally, he won't be far away from Big Brother Chu."

"That kid, I'm afraid it's hard to pass this hurdle. When I found out the truth, I ran to the battlefield in a rage, and let Hao Rui follow to such a dangerous place." Madam Chu said quietly: "Although I was worried, I let him go. Thinking about going through some things, he just looked away. Who would have thought that this war was won, but he still refused to see me, and he refused to admit it. My own identity is really a headache."

At this time, Daiyu has put those messy clues in her heart.After piecing together, I came up with an idea.Knowing that Mrs. Chu is the prostitute daughter of the Yang family who disappeared in the early years, that is, Tenman's aunt.

Nanny Song once said that Mrs. Chu ran away from home that day because Emperor Hong Zhen married Empress Sun. It seems that after that, Mrs. Chu might have a story with Emperor Hong Zhen.

Daiyu thought, that story may be very touching, or it may be very sad, no matter it is touching or miserable, Mrs. Chu must still love Emperor Hong Zhen very much, otherwise it would not be so many years later.And promised to be his queen.

Seeing the loneliness in Mrs. Chu's eyes, Daiyu's heart also softened, and she gently persuaded: "Auntie, don't worry. Brother Chu will definitely understand Auntie's intentions." Mrs. Chu looked at Daiyu: " You must be very curious about that story. If you have a chance, let Wushuang tell it to you. She also came with me and went to your Tingyu Pavilion. During this period of time, the Yang Mansion is in chaos, and I am really worried. God bless. So let Wushuang also come to your place to disturb you for a while, treat it as your aunt's request."

Daiyu hurriedly said, "What did Auntie say? Sister Wushuang and I hit it off right away, so there's no way we can bother you."

"In a few days, you will have to take off your clothes. Auntie will not be able to visit you at that time. I know that you and Grandma Liu have built a vegetable greenhouse. Here is a brochure for glass production. I will give it to you as a congratulatory gift." !" As soon as Madam Chu finished speaking, Cui Qi handed over a brocade box in her hand to Dai Yu.

Daiyu naturally knew the weight of this thing.Hastily declined and said: "Auntie's gift is too heavy, and Daiyu must not accept it." Madam Chu smiled faintly: "Take it, Auntie will trouble you and Hao Rui to persuade Tianyou well, and the empress dowager On the day of the ceremony, I still hope he can go.”

Daiyu looked at Mrs. Chu with emotion.She never knew that Mrs. Chu valued Chu Tianyou so much.Because of her seriousness, Mrs. Chu is always very chic.Very indifferent, and never intervened in Brother Chu's affairs.Looking at it today, parents in this world, no matter how they do it, have the same heart for their children.

Thinking of this, Daiyu couldn't help but miss her parents deeply again. If her parents were still there, would she be very happy, very happy.

After an hour passed, Chu Tianyou still did not appear on the painting screen, and Mrs. Chu reluctantly left.When Daiyu returned to Yanyu Pavilion, she didn't see Yang Wushuang either. After a while, she saw that lonely figure in Wisteria Pier.

Daiyu didn't let the maids follow her, and went into Wisteria Pier by herself, and sat next to Yang Wushuang: "It turns out that Sister Yang is here, and I've been looking for it for a long time." Only then did Yang Wushuang come back to his senses, a little dazed. Look at Daiyu.

"What's wrong with Sister Yang?" Daiyu felt that there was something wrong with Yang Wushuang's expression, and she couldn't help asking worriedly, "Are you uncomfortable?" Yang Wushuang shook his head lightly: "I just think that Sister Lin is really good here. You can also see the sparkling lake water so clearly from inside the house. It’s a pity that Qingwen said that you can’t take a boat on this lake, otherwise I would like to row a small boat and go fishing in the middle of the lake.”

Daiyu said with a smile: "The lake is too close to Yanyu Pavilion, brother is afraid that I will be in danger, that's why Big Brother Chu planted many hidden weapons on it, so he can't take the boat." Yang Wushuang was shocked when he heard Chu Tianyou's name Sigh: "Eldest aunt still hasn't seen Brother Chu."

Daiyu nodded and sighed, "I haven't seen it. I just asked sister Chuxia, and she said that Big Brother Chu has gone out and hasn't come back yet."

Yang Wushuang sighed: "Eldest aunt is also a poor person!" Daiyu also sighed heavily: "Sister Yang, can you tell me about my aunt? I really want to know." Yang Wushuang was slightly taken aback, looking Looking at Daiyu's small face with a determined expression.

She didn't know if she could tell such a story to Daiyu, because in the previous life, even if she took her body and made her repay the tears in the previous life, I'm afraid it would not be able to catch up with the hurt of that word of love.This situation is really hurtful.Just tell the exquisite girl in front of you like this, is it okay?

Although Yang Wushuang didn't have a definite answer in her heart, she had already told that touching but not beautiful story.Daiyu listened leisurely, only then did she realize that Mrs. Chu's boudoir name is Yang Zhilan.Only then did I know that after Mrs. Chu and her younger sister Yang's house, they did not actually wander around the world.Instead, she entered the Chu Palace at that time as a maidservant.Only then did she know that Mrs. Chu was poisoned by Empress Sun when she was pregnant with Brother Chu, so she left Emperor Hong Zhen as a last resort and raised Brother Chu alone.

Yang Wushuang said quietly: "Eldest aunt really loves the emperor, otherwise she wouldn't have resolutely given up her status as Miss Gonghou and would have been willing to be a slave. But, I don't understand why she didn't understand until she was pregnant. After Big Brother Chu, Eldest Aunt would not let the Emperor accept her as a concubine, or she could be a wife."

Daiyu sighed softly: "I guess, Auntie may think that only in this way the emperor belongs to her alone."

Yang Wushuang looked at Daiyu in amazement, but Daiyu just stared at the lake outside the house in a dazed way. It wasn't until this moment that she vaguely understood why Brother Chu never had a housemate by his side.It wasn't until this time that she understood a little bit what Tenman often said.

Daiyu looked at the lake in the distance, and murmured softly: "There is a couple for a lifetime, I think that's what Sister Teng said." Yang Wushuang looked at Daiyu, thinking of the unusually lively Teng Man, Thinking of the resolute and brave Lin Haorui again, his expression became even darker.
