The eldest daughter of the Shangshu Mansion divorced her husband and refused to return to the Shangshu Mansion. She insisted on living outside with the country daughter she had just adopted.
This, this, how can this be possible
If other people heard this, they would probably laugh at the people in the Shangshu Mansion for being heartless and mean, leaving these orphans and widows helpless and homeless.
However, although the ladies of the Yun family all understood this truth, they were all happy to see their sister-in-law not come home to live.
Firstly, this sister-in-law has always been favored at home. This time, she doesn't know how long she will stay there. By then, her parents, her husband's uncles and aunts will definitely give priority to her in everything. It really makes people feel uncomfortable just thinking about it.
Secondly, for the ladies of the Yun family who abide by the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, their sister-in-law was so rebellious as to sue her own husband. Her daughter was even more outrageous as she even sued her own father and had him executed. It was obvious that both mother and daughter were cruel and ruthless. Wouldn't that make them feel uncomfortable
As for everything that Dingyuan Hou did, in their opinion, their niece was not dead, so wouldn't everyone be happy if they recognized her? Although they could not inherit the title of the Marquis' Mansion, the Marquis' Mansion still had such a large family business. The mother and daughter were just too serious.
There is no empathy in this world. Those who are high and mighty and point fingers at other people's choices are too indifferent to other people's experiences.
However, Yun Feiyan's action of suing Marquis Dingyuan was indeed bold in this era.
Fortunately, the emperor allowed her to divorce her husband, and the Yun family only had a son, otherwise the ladies of the Yun family would have been even more dissatisfied with her.
In this dynasty, a woman's reputation is more important than her life. If a family has a daughter with an aunt like Yun Feiyan, it will be a fatal blow to her marriage.
Having said that, hearing that the mother and daughter no longer lived in the mansion, the ladies all felt relieved.
Of course, you still have to do some superficial work, because the men of the Yun family are watching.
"How can that be? How can we live outside instead of at home? We have places to live in our house. Feiyan, as your sister-in-law, I don't agree with what you said. Please don't do anything rash."
"That's right, Feiyan. How can living outside be as worry-free as living at home? Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your parents. They have been looking forward to your return and staying for a while."
"yes… "
As they drank and chatted, the ladies exchanged glances with each other and started to persuade each other.
Yun Feiyan has been a marquis's wife for decades, so how could she not see the affairs of her sisters-in-law
Although she had long known that a daughter who was married off was like water spilled, she still felt uncomfortable when she knew that she was disliked by her family.
She smiled bitterly in her heart, but her face showed a look of pleading: "I have made up my mind, sisters-in-law, please don't persuade me anymore. You also know that Mingyue and I have been separated for such a long time. Now, I just want to stay by her and Mingmei's side and make up to them. Can you please keep my love for her daughter?"
Now that things have come to this, the ladies couldn't say much and could only turn their gazes to the men.
Yun Yu'an and others naturally didn't want their sister to live outside, but they had no idea what to do with their only sister.
Minister Yun put the wine glass in his hand heavily on the table and said unhappily, "Alright, alright, if you don't want to come back, then don't come back. But you have to keep your uncle Zhong by your side so that your family can rest assured."
Uncle Zhong is an old servant who has followed Minister Yun all his life, and he still has some face in the outside world. This can be regarded as Minister Yun showing his importance to his daughter.
Yun Feiyan smiled and agreed, then looked at Mingyue nervously. In fact, she had not discussed it with her daughter and acted first and then asked for her consent.
But she had also thought about it. If her daughter disagreed, she would buy a yard near her daughter's residence. As long as she could see her daughter every day, she would be satisfied. Mingyue looked at her like this, how could she say "no"
Mingyue smiled and said, "Then you will have to live with me in the small courtyard first."
Yun Feiyan's heart settled down immediately, and she said without hesitation: "Even if I have to live in a dilapidated temple with you, I will be happy in my heart."
After hearing this, Yun Yu'an shook his head and scolded, "You are getting more and more ridiculous. With Daddy still here, how could I let you two live in a dilapidated temple?"
Yun Feiyan smiled without saying anything. How could her brother know how she felt after losing and regaining something
Mingyue raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Uncle, mother just likes me too much. I was just joking, why did you take it seriously? Besides, with me here, mother's good days are still to come!"
Yun Yu'an glared at her deliberately, but in her heart she felt very pleased that her niece was defending her sister.
However, when several ladies heard Mingyue's words, there was a look of sarcasm in their eyes.
She is just a girl who grew up in the countryside and was divorced by a country man. What future can she have
Not to mention that she has a stuttering daughter who has sued her own father.
The man in the family had previously asked them to find a husband for her, but this really put them in a difficult position.
They would be ashamed to tell others about such a relative, so how could they dare to find a spouse for her
Besides, marriage is a union of good will between two families, and arranging a marriage for this girl would probably mean making enemies.
Yun Feiyan saw the disdain of her sisters-in-law towards Mingyue and wanted to explode immediately. She could tolerate the hypocrisy of her sisters-in-law, but she could not tolerate them being even the slightest bit negligent towards her daughter.
Mingyue was still paying attention to her. He held her hand under the table and shook his head gently at her.
Although her aunts are a bit snobbish, her grandfather and uncles are nice. Mingyue doesn't want to cause unrest in their home because of her.
The so-called way to get along with others is to get along if you can, and to separate if you can't.
Anyway, we can't see them all the time, so the worst that can happen is that we can just have less contact with them in the future.
However, with the occasional disdainful looks from several aunts, Yun Feiyan and Mingyue did not stay in the Shangshu Mansion for long. They just had their meal and then took the carriage back to Mingyue's residence.
Mingyue's residence is in the busiest alley in the capital. When she sees a carriage passing by, many heads immediately stick out from the cracks in the door to watch the excitement, and then they ask one after another whose carriage it is. The atmosphere of ordinary people's life is very strong.
When the carriage stopped at Mingyue's door, many people came to greet Mingyue.
Everyone knows that Mingyue is the eldest daughter of the Marquis's Mansion who was nearly killed by her own father. They also know that she sacrificed her own father for the sake of the people, and everyone admires her very much!
The people didn't care about fame or not, they just felt that Mingyue saved the refugees and the people in Dingyuan Marquis' fiefdom.
