Although Mrs. Xue didn't say anything clearly, Fifth Madam also fully understood.
Mrs. Yu is now deceased, and she ordered someone to bring the bowl of water back then. If it is retested, no matter what the result is, Yuming is unwilling to accept it. And re-inspection means doubting Mrs. Yu, so Yuming chose to avoid it. As for what is the truth, Yu Ming no longer wants to know. From that moment on, Xue Shi understood that Yu Ming had completely given up on her and Yu Zi'an.
It is not uncommon for Dayou and his wife to reconcile and divorce. Although it is inevitable to provoke criticism, it is not unreasonable. Nowadays, there are also many examples of fierce women who offered to reconcile because they were dissatisfied with what their husbands did, and they still lived a prosperous life later. There are many people who remarry with Li and find a better family, which is better than guarding such a person and not even keeping their own children. What's more, the Xue family already has Yu Zi'an, since Yu Ming doesn't recognize Yu Zi'an, then the Xue family can take him away, and there will be someone to rely on in the future.
"But you have to bear this reputation, isn't it too embarrassing, it's obviously not your fault!" Fifth Madam is not a pedantic person, and she doesn't think there is anything wrong with being unable to live on, but she can't help feeling sorry for Xue .
"So what? He doesn't want to bleed again, so what can I do? It's just that Zi'an suffers. With such a reputation, I'm afraid he will be ridiculed in the future." Xue said worriedly. She is also contradictory now, if Yu Zi'an is accepted, she must not leave Yu's house with her, if she and Yu Zi'an are not accepted, they will be ridiculed and rejected in the future. Yu Zi'an is smart, and he should be able to take the imperial examination in the future, and his unclear background will also affect his future career.
Fifth Madam also lost her mind, and could only say: "No matter how bad it is, it is better than now, at least you have a life. It's just that you really want to make up?"
As the saying goes, persuasion is not persuasion, although the fifth lady will not say those words against her will, she should also remind her properly so that she will not regret it later.
"I've been heartbroken for a long time, but I just can't bear to cut off this piece of rotten flesh. As a mother, you are strong, and it's time to end it. Although I have the name of a concubine now, in fact, I am not as good as a girl in the same room. What's the point, it's better to get together and get away."
"Then what are your plans for the future? Are there other people in your family?"
Mrs. Xue shook her head, "I am the only one left in the family. Fortunately, my embroidery skills have not been lost, and I still have skills to make a living in the future."
"You haven't found a house yet, have you? It's inconvenient for you to be a woman with children outside. I still have a yard here. If you don't want to rent it, you can rent it from me. I have a single family, but we are neighbors, and we have each other. Take care."
Xue's eyes lit up, she was afraid of being harassed if she was not afraid of suffering, especially with such a reputation, she was easily targeted by Xiaoxiao's generation. But if you are neighbors with the Lu family, then you don't have to worry about anything. Although Mrs. Xue has been ill all these years and has not gone out, but because of Yu Zi'an's relationship, she has paid a lot of attention to the Lu family, so she knows a thing or two. Although Lu Feng's official position in Beijing is only ordinary, the Lu family is not something ordinary people would dare to mess with.
"Thank you so much, but let me say that the rent is the same as outside."
"Don't worry, I won't take you any less! You just said you can embroider? It just so happens that my family lacks such a delicate person. If you don't mind, help my eleven mother get a dress. My pig butcher I am used to not being particular about my background, and I don’t know how many jokes I have caused by dressing up my daughter in a mess. I see that you are a delicate one, and you help my daughter clean up."
Xue Shi didn't know that this was taking care of her, she was very grateful in her heart, and her confidence became more and more confident.
Mrs. Xue is a neat person, and after a few days, she really reconciled with Yuming, and took Yu Zi'an away from Yu's house, and put Yu Zi'an into a female household, and changed Yu Zi'an's name to Xue Zi'an.
Yuming didn't want to divorce at first, but Mrs. Xue made up her mind, and with that aunt on the side making troubles and using the name of Mrs. Yu, Yuming finally agreed.
Xue felt sad but at the same time felt relieved. Ever since she joined the Yu family, she had concealed her true nature and lived in fear. After giving birth to Yu Zi'an, her body and bones had not been properly nursed, and her life was even more difficult due to her urgency. Not only does he not look like a wife, but even his own children are living a miserable life. In Yu's house, anyone can climb on the head and step on it, which is really depressing. What is even more chilling is Yuming, how affectionate he was before, how painful he was later, but fortunately it is over now.
"Mother, did the baby cause mother to be kicked out?" Xue Zian was not happy but frightened when he heard that Mrs. Xue was going to live with him outside.
Xue's heart was filled with soreness, and she hugged Xue Zian into her arms. Why was he so dazed in the past, such a good son shouldn't have to worry about that fickle lover.
"It was my mother who was bad in the past, Zi'an, please don't blame my mother?"
Xue Zian shook his head again and again, "Mother is fine."
Mrs. Xue patted Xue Zian's head, "In the future, only our mothers will depend on each other, and life may be harder than before. Is Zi'an afraid?"
Xue Zi'an said seriously: "As long as Mother is here, Zi'an is not afraid of going anywhere. But, will Mother not be happy if she leaves Father?"
"It's enough for the mother to have a son."
Xue Zian grinned brightly, "Zian will be obedient and respect mother."
Seeing that the mother and son couldn't help wiping away their tears, the fifth lady felt even more unhappy. Yuming and Xue's reconciliation had been rumored for a long time, and Xue also took Yu Zi'an away, which made the news of Xue's stealing a man and giving birth to wild seeds spread widely. Fifth Madam didn't expect Yuming to be so filthy, it wouldn't give the mother and son a chance to survive.
The Fifth Madam called Zhuang Zhong and told Zhuang Zhun the whole story, "Zi An's mother and son are innocent disasters, do you have a way to rectify their names?"
"Recognizing relatives with blood? This thing is not reliable at all!" Zhuang Zhong didn't expect Yu Zi'an's tragedy to come from this, feeling helpless and angry.
The people present were surprised.
Lu Shiniang said: "Isn't it always said?"
Zhuang Zhong didn't explain much, he just ordered people to bring some bowls filled with water, and then ordered all the servants to come over, and all the people randomly got together to drip blood into the bowls, and it turned out that the blood of several people was compatible.
Everyone was stunned, "This is impossible, are we two brothers who have been separated for many years?"
"No, my ancestral home is Hedong, and I am the only seedling in my family."
"Why am I in the same family as the master?"
Everyone was discussing, Lu Feng frowned, "What's going on? Could it be that you put something in this bowl?"
Solemnly said: "I didn't touch these bowls at all just now, and I didn't move my hands or feet in the water."
Lu Balang exclaimed, "This drop of blood is completely insignificant! But why has it been passed down for so many years?"
Zhuang Zhong tried his best to explain in words that everyone could understand: "Human blood can be divided into four categories. The blood of people of the same blood type will blend, and vice versa. The types of blood types are affected by both parents, so most of them will be the same. , but there are exceptions. The third type can be derived from the combination of two, which also leads to incompatibility. Coupled with external reasons, it is even more inaccurate. If you find relatives in the way of blood recognition, it will be full of relatives. The world is over."
Lu Feng said: "This kind of thing must be known to the whole world, otherwise there will be many unjust, false and wrong cases."
Zhuang Zhong went to find Feng Huan, and used his fame to publicize the fact that this drop of blood is unreliable. Feng Huan experimented on the spot, and it turned out that his own blood could fuse with Zhuang Zhong, so he immediately believed it.
Not long after, the news spread throughout the capital and even Dayou. This experiment is extremely easy, it is impossible for everyone to fake it, and it breaks people's cognition. Once the news spreads, I don't know how many people regret it.
Among them is Yuming.
Yuming went back to look for Mrs. Xue, but Mrs. Xue ignored her and said: "When you dare not try again, the friendship between us has been broken."
Yuming wanted to bring Xue Zian back, but Xue sent him back. Asking Xue Zian afterwards if he would like to go back to Yu's house, Xue Zian shook his head again and again, "Where is mother, Zi'an will be there."
On the second day, Mrs. Xue ordered someone to tell Aunt Yu's family that Yu Ming wanted to remarry her, and that Xue Zi'an recognized her ancestor and returned to her clan. Sure enough, although Yuming came to visit occasionally, he never mentioned the matter of recognizing his ancestors and returning to his clan.
"Brother Zhuang, what is this?" Xue Zian asked from Zhuangzhuang's inspection box, which looked like scissors but had two sticks on the blade.
"This is called an opener." Zhuang Zhong took it over, twisted the round metal piece at the back, and the screw made the two metal forks gradually open. "When the deceased is clenching his teeth, the mouth will become very difficult to open due to rigor, and it can be used to open the mouth of the corpse, so as to check the condition of the tongue and teeth. Whether there is mucous membrane bleeding in the deceased's lips , Whether the teeth are loose or not is often of great significance in determining whether the deceased died of smothering."
Since Xue Zian knew about Zhuang Zhong's ability, he has indirectly proved that he is not a bastard, especially after hearing from Lu Xiaobao that Zhuang Zhong's bone examination technique broke the case of Lu Balang's stepfather, he became more interested in the autopsy. Lu Xiaobao saw that he was curious, so he acted like a good boy with Zhuang Zhong, forced Zhuang Zhuang to tell Xue Zian a story, and asked Zhuang Zhong to show all his good things.
Lu Xiaobao was so entangled, so Zhuang Zhong took what he could and showed it to the two children. When Xue Zian saw the contents in the box, his eyes widened.
"What is this?"
"This slender stick is called a periosteum separator, and it is used to peel off the periosteum of the skull. The curved and flat parts at both ends are not sharp, which can prevent skull scars from being confused with the original trauma during peeling."
"Oh, my scalp is numb, how could you say such a terrible thing to Xiao An." The fifth lady came to deliver the snacks, and when she heard Zhuang Zhong's words, she panicked.
Xue Zian said: "Auntie, I think it's very interesting. I want to be like Brother Zhuang in the future."
Fifth Madam smiled and said: "Yes, Xiao An is more and more like our Lu family. Our Lu family used to be in this industry. Now that Brother Chong has taken over this job, I didn't expect Xiao An to be interested."
"Our two families are destined, if it weren't for you, Xiao An would not know whether he was dead or alive now." Mrs. Xue was embroidering a screen for Lu Shiniang. Xue's workmanship is no worse than that of others, and he even knows how to embroider on both sides. This is a rare item, and even rich people with no connections can't buy it. The Lu family has a shallow foundation and was born as a general, so they are quite vulgar, so they can't buy it even if they have money. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xue would, and a double-sided embroidered handkerchief made Lu Shiniang shine. Lu Shiniang also wanted to learn, but she was not born with this kind of material, and the thread collapsed a lot, and she was impatient, so she ran away after two days of tossing.
"Why don't our two families become in-laws? Although my Eleven Niang is a bit older, but as the saying goes, a third-year girl holds a gold brick." The more Mrs. Wu thought about it, the better she felt. Mrs. Xue was extremely angry with her. Lu Shiniang was her heart disease, and she was afraid that she would be wronged if she married someone who didn't know her background, but if she married Xue Zian, she wouldn't have to worry.
Mrs. Xue liked Lu Shiniang very much, and said: "It's good to be affectionate, Shi Niang is my temper the most."
Lu Shiniang on the side jumped up, "No! I don't want to marry this little guy, Xiao An. I am so strong and he is so small. What if I accidentally crush him?"
Everyone laughed, and Xue Zian blushed suddenly. Lu Xiaobao was unhappy, feeling that Xue Zian was rejected by his elder sister, "Sister, I don't want Xiao An, I want it!"
