Yun's maid came back from the countryside with her, and now when everyone in the Yu Manor cast aside Yu Qianyun, this maid still served Yu Qianyun faithfully.
It was also this maid who brought this terrible news to Yu Qianyun.
The servant girl couldn't help wiping her tears as she spoke: "...I heard that the butcher is in his forties, Miss, what should I do?"
Yu Qianyun's face was pale, and she kept shaking her head, as if she was muttering to herself: "No...impossible, I'm going to find her, why should she abuse me like this!"
The servant girl held Yu Qianyun tightly, crying and persuading her: "Miss, wake up, the fourth lady is in charge of the house now, what's the use of you going to her? It's just..."
Swallowing the following words, the servant girl broke down in tears and said: "Miss, you should think of a way! I heard that I will marry you off after the first month!"
Yu Qianyun slumped down on the couch, her face was full of despair: "A way, what can I do..."
Now that she has been betrayed by everyone, what else can she do!
Scheming, scheming, she used to gain so many benefits for herself by relying on scheming, but at this moment she couldn't even think of a way. Only now did she know that even if she knew how to calculate, it would be of no use. When she met a real strong man, her cleverness would be vulnerable to a single blow.
The master and servant were crying with their heads in each other's arms, when a mocking voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Hey, Miss Fifth, why can't you wait? Isn't the date fixed? In ten days or so, you will I can get my wish!"
A woman walked in without saluting. She put the bundle in her hand heavily on the table, glanced at Yu Qianyun contemptuously, and said, "Well, this is the dowry given by Miss Fourth to Miss Fifth."
Yu Qianyun's maid wiped her eyes, stood up and said, "Which yard are you from, you dare to talk to our lady like that? You are not afraid of our lady—"
Before the words were finished, the mother-in-law interrupted the servant girl's words: "When is this, and you are still taking the lady's money from us? Don't be afraid that the wind will flash your tongue!"
It is human nature to step on the highs and the lows, not to mention that Yu Qianyun's identity has already plummeted. What kind of future is there for a young lady whose reputation has been ruined? What's more, now that her marriage has been settled, she will marry a butcher. In the future, her status will not even be as good as that of servants like women and maids in Yufu.
The servant girl blushed at the words, and said in a low-confidence manner: "Don't look down on people! Maybe after a few days, the fourth lady's anger will disappear, and our lady won't have to marry that kind of person..."
The woman curled her lips and said, "You guys, stop dreaming! With Miss Fifth's current reputation, marrying a butcher is considered good! You didn't hear what people outside said—"
Looking at Yu Qianyun's pale face, the mother-in-law couldn't help but spit: "It's really embarrassing!"
The mother-in-law obviously didn't want to stay here for a while, so she turned around and walked out after speaking.
From the beginning to the end, Yu Qianyun didn't say a word.
She just sat there in a daze, as if she hadn't heard what the mother-in-law said at all, as if everything that happened around her had nothing to do with her.
On the side, the servant girl couldn't stop crying: "Miss, don't take it to your heart, that woman's vulgar words don't stain your ears..."
Yu Qianyun lowered her head and slowly opened the bag that the mother-in-law had left on the table.
She wants to see what kind of dowry Yu Linglong sent her.
A bright red dress lay quietly in front of her eyes. It was as red as blood, which almost made her unable to open her eyes.
His slender fingers ran across the clothes, the inferior fabric and rough embroidery, one could tell it was cheap.
What a great irony, she tried her best to obtain all the property of Yufu, but in the end, all she got was such a rough wedding dress.
She had fantasized about how she would be when she got married countless times, but she never expected that the reality would be so cruel.
For a moment, she wanted to pick up her clothes and rush to Pinlanyuan to beg Yu Linglong to let her go, but she firmly restrained this crazy thought.
She is not a fool, she knows better than anyone else that since Yu Linglong has made a decision, there is no room for maneuver.
If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself. If you take a wrong step, you will have to pay your own life as the price.
Her little hands were trembling uncontrollably, she lowered her head abruptly, and buried her pale face deeply into the wedding dress.
If everything started all over again, would she still choose to frame Yu Linglong
This question may never be answered.
…
In a few days, it will be the day when Yu Linglong gets married.
Yu Qianyun already had this result, and after Yu Linglong got married, there would be no more masters in the Yu Mansion.
Although she doesn't have any feelings for Yufu, Yu Linglong still needs to settle the affairs of Yufu so that she can start her new life without worries.
According to Shi Huiru's suggestion, she let Daylilies and Ling'er select some reliable servants in Yufu, including companions, stewards, daughters-in-law, cooks, mothers-in-law, maids, etc., and prepared to take them to Xuwang's Mansion.
Furniture, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc., I like to take away, and sell the rest for silver taels. Yu Linglong already has some plans for her future life, and these plans need to be realized with silver.
The remaining farms, shops, etc. were all changed to my own name. Although there were not many, it was still a small property.
Only the things in Jingshantang, she didn't move at all, and sealed them up properly.
She didn't know if this was a kind of commemoration. For Mrs. Yu, her emotions were somewhat complicated. Although the time they got along was very short, Mrs. Yu's hearty, generous, and sincere love for herself, in this cold In Yufu, it is her only warm memory.
She didn't plan to sell the big house of Yu Mansion, but asked her servants to guard it carefully, as a way out for herself.
She doesn't completely trust Xu Wang, if one day, she can't become Xu Wang, maybe she can return to Yufu to live.
Everything was almost arranged, Yu Linglong asked the housekeeper to dismiss the servants who were not needed, but within a few days, the huge Yufu became an empty house.
On this day, the sun was fine, Yu Linglong had been busy these days, and finally she was free, so she took Ling'er for a walk in the garden.
Familiar scenes everywhere, people can't help recalling so many memories, even though many of them are unpleasant, but now that she really wants to leave, Yu Linglong doesn't feel a sense of relief in her heart, but a little Inexplicably disappointed.
When passing by the Jingshan Hall, looking at the white seal, Yu Linglong suddenly remembered what Mrs. Yu said to persuade her before she died.
She was used to her own strength and hardness, and never felt that she had done anything wrong, but some things might be solved in other ways.
Thinking of this, she laughed at herself, whether she had lived in ancient times for a long time, and she had become scheming unknowingly.
With snow under her feet, Yu Linglong walked forward silently.
The garden in winter was completely deserted, and all the servants of Yufu had been dismissed, making the garden even more empty without a single figure.
In this empty garden, a very uncoordinated figure suddenly appeared.
Yu Linglong looked at the person walking towards her, and couldn't help showing a strange expression on her face.
The man walked up to her, saluted politely, and said, "Hello, Fourth Miss."
Yu Linglong narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at her impolitely, and said in a deep voice, "Why are you still here?"

The recent flu is very serious. My mother-in-law had a severe fever the day before yesterday and ran to the hospital in the middle of the night. It was so scary~

The person in front of him was wearing a blue cloth robe that was old and not old. The bun on his head was not messy, and he was simply holding it with a plain silver hairpin. His face was covered with a layer of makeup and powder, but he looked more handsome. She lost a little weight in the past, and was still a bit haggard. This person turned out to be Miss Liu, whom the Mu family invited from the palace for Miss Yufu. love
Ever since she insisted on teaching Yu Linglong the rules last time, but Yu Linglong unceremoniously kicked her out, Yu Linglong has never seen this lady Liu again. She never expected that there are no people in the Yu Mansion now, and Miss Liu is still in the house. Here, she naturally felt a little surprised.
Hearing Yu Linglong's words, Ms. Liu's face showed a bit of embarrassment, but she tried her best to hide it, and said in a flat tone: "Miss Fourth, please allow a few more days, and when I find a place to stay, I will leave as soon as possible. "
Seeing Miss Liu's unconcealable look of disappointment, Yu Linglong vaguely guessed the reason, she pondered for a moment, then said: "Come with me."
She happened to have some doubts in her heart, and perhaps Ms. Liu could tell her the answer.
This time it was Ms. Liu's turn to be surprised. She followed behind Yu Linglong in a daze, but she couldn't figure out what Yu Linglong would ask her for.
Yu Linglong brought Miss Liu back to Pinlanyuan, ordered Ling'er to make her a cup of hot tea, and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Ms. Liu was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect Yu Linglong to care about her situation, she thought about it, and then said the matter.
It turns out that once the female officials in the palace reach a certain age, they will be released from the palace. Usually, the female officials released are not young. It is not easy to find a suitable person to marry, let alone in After living in the palace for a long time, ordinary people look down on them, so except for some people who returned to their hometowns, most of the female officials would choose to stay in the palace.
