It happened to be drizzling on the day Yuchen entered Beijing. The bad weather also cast a shadow in her heart.
Yuchen originally planned to live in the inn, but they were blocked when they entered the city gate.
Meng Nian looked at the young man blocking them, and asked coldly: "Who are you? Why are you blocking the way?"
Brother Hua said to Meng Nian: "I am Han Jiahua, the elder son of the Korean government, and I came to pick up the three aunts back to the government by my father's orders."
Meng Nian was stunned.
Yuchen naturally heard these words in the carriage: "Meng Nian, follow Jiahua back to the Guogong Mansion!" She hasn't returned to the Guogong Mansion for more than ten years, and she doesn't know what the Guogong Mansion is now.
Shixiang was a little worried, and said in a low voice: "Madam, who knows if what he said is true or false, what if it is a liar?"
"We are going to the Korean government office. This cannot be impersonated." She knows the location of the government office.
Meng Nian's expression was a bit complicated, but he did not object, and silently followed Yu Chen to the Guogong Mansion.
Yuchen is the official mansion that enters from the side door. After passing the gate, Yuchen asked to dismount the carriage, but Hua Ge did not object.
After getting off the carriage, Yuchen looked at Brother Hua in a python robe, and said with a smile: "You look very similar to your mother." Although it has been more than 20 years, she still pays the people from the government office. Remember.
Brother Hua looked like Aunt Jia, and he knew that. Nodding, Brother Hua said: "San Aunt, Tingyun Pavilion has been cleaned up, I will lead you there."
Men cannot enter the backyard, so Meng Nian took a few entourages and lived in a yard arranged by Brother Hua. The yard is relatively remote and small, but it is very clean.
At this meeting, how could Meng Nian pick this.
He was thinking in his heart, and he didn't know what idea Han Yuxi was making. I always feel that the comer is not good. I only hope that the master is safe and not afraid of other knives.
Walking on the road, seeing the surrounding scenery and buildings, Yu Chen said with some sigh: "It has almost not changed from twenty years ago."
"The Guogong Mansion was dug three feet of ground by Yan Wushuang, and the house and the scenery were completely destroyed. All of this has been rebuilt." It took more than four years to completely renovate the Guogong Mansion. Finish.
Yuchen had a look and asked, "When will Big Brother come back?"
"My dad went to Shu for disaster relief, and he won't be back until a few months later." There was an earthquake in Yunnan, so Yuxi sent him to relief.
Last year, Han Jianming made a great contribution to crushing the rumors of climbing up on nepotism.
Yuchen and Han Jianming have not been close since they were young, and there is nothing regrettable about not seeing them. Yuchen said softly: "I want to go to the ancestral hall and give grandma a stick of incense later."
According to Brother Hua's idea, he didn't want Yuchen to offer incense to his great-grandmother. It's just that Yuxi said before, no matter what request Yuchen makes, as long as she is not excessively satisfied.
After hesitating, Brother Hua said, "I'll ask my grandmother's opinion later." If Qiu's agrees, he won't stop.
After a quarter of an hour, the group finally arrived at Tingyun Pavilion. Seeing that the boudoir that used to put all kinds of treasures and agitation in the past is now empty, I don't know why Yuchen's eyes suddenly become red.
Brother Hua's impression of Yuchen was not good, and he didn't want to leave her sad expression too: "San Aunt, please rest well first. If there is anything, please tell her." After finishing speaking, he pointed and followed. The maid Bai Ling who entered the house.
Yuchen naturally sees Hua Ge's rejection of her, but it is not surprising that Hua Ge's approach to Yuxi would not like her.
Xu Yue was teasing his son when he saw Brother Hua put down his son and greeted him.
Holding up his arms and dancing, babbling, yeah, the son who doesn’t know what he’s talking about, only a faint smile appeared on Brother Hua’s face: "Is Bo’er behaved today?" The husband and wife were dissatisfied after taking many nicknames, and the result was straightforward. It's called Brother Bao'er. As for the daimyo, you have to pick it up when you are one year old.
"Very good." Hua Ge's love for Bao Ge surpassed her, which made Xu Yue occasionally jealous.
Xu Yue asked in a low voice, "Husband, how should Tingyun Pavilion entertain him?" She instinctively rejected Yu Chen, feeling that it was inappropriate to let an enemy live in her own home. But this was the order of the Queen Empress, and she couldn't resist.
Brother Hua said nonchalantly: "Let Bai Ling take care of anything." Although his blood relationship is relatively close, he dislikes Yuchen, and doesn't want to have any relationship with Yuchen.
When Xu Yue heard this, his heart was clear. However, she couldn't understand Yuxi's arrangement: "She is Yan Wushuang's person and our enemy. Why does the Queen Empress let her live in Tingyun Pavilion?"
"Tingyun Pavilion is the place where she lives without being married. Empress, she should still be thinking about sisterhood!" This was also said to Xu Yue. Although he doesn't know what Yuxi is planning, he knows that such a card must have profound meaning.
Xu Yue couldn't understand even more.
After Yuchen freshened up, he changed his clothes, and then told Bai Ling that he wanted to see the Qiu family.
Bai Ling shook his head and said, "The old lady is now chanting in the Buddhist hall. If you want to see the old lady, Grandma Sangu, it will take half an hour."
"Then I want to see your son." She wants to know when Yuxi will meet him.
Bai Ling nodded and said, "I'll send someone to pass on the words of my wife to our son." As for whether Brother Hua will meet, it is not her decision.
After Qiu's chanting and walking out of the Buddhist hall, the maid Keren said to her: "Ma'am, Sangu and grandma said that I want to see you."
Hearing that it was Yuchen who wanted to see her, Qiu's family thought Ke Ren had made a mistake: "Yuchen didn't go overseas, how could he be in the capital?" But Ren is the granddaughter of Li's mother and is now the first-class maid of Qiu's. , Very much her reliance on.
"Grandma Sangu was brought back by Shi Ziye, and she was also arranged in Tingyun Pavilion. Old lady, if you don't want to meet, I will turn her back." She heard Mama Li mentioned Yuchen and knew the relationship between Qiu and Yuchen. Not close.
The Qiu clan wrapped the Buddhist bead on his wrist, and then said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen it for more than 20 years. When I come back, I will meet you!"
Two quarters later, Yuchen arrived in the upper court. Yuchen looked at the flowers and trees in the yard in a daze, some of them were not what she remembered.
Looking at Yuchen, who was dressed plainly, Qiu's was stunned for an instant. It wasn't until Yuchen called his big aunt that Qiu came back and smiled: "I haven't seen you in twenty years, you haven't changed at all." It's just a little more mature and plump than before, and the appearance hasn't changed much. .
"Nothing has changed at all, she's already old." She is forty-one years old and is about to be a grandmother.
Qiu Shi smiled kindly: "You are still young, I am really old, and now I have gray hair." Qiu Shi is sixty-four years old, but she is in good health, as long as there is no accident, she will live. No problem for twenty years.
The two were not close in the past, and now they have been separated for more than 20 years and have nothing to say. After a few words of greeting, Yuchen asked: "Auntie, I want to go to the ancestral hall and give my grandmother a stick of incense. I don't know if it is okay?" She heard that Yuxi was extremely filial and treated Qiu as a mother. So as long as Qiu's agrees, this matter will be fine.
"Your grandmother loved you the most. When you came back, you should go and give her incense, and tell her about your situation over the years." After that, the Qiu clan said to Keren, "Send someone to call. Shi Ziye came and asked him to take Yuchen to the ancestral hall."
When he arrived at the ancestral hall, Yuchen knelt in front of Zhou's memorial tablet, crying, "Grandma, unfilial granddaughter Yuchen came to see you." She had a lot to say, but she couldn't say a word when she came to the end.
Brother Hua took the incense from the incense case and handed it to Yuchen, and said blankly: "After the incense, you go back and rest!" Because the Guogong Mansion has rebuilt the genealogy, Yuchen is not included in the genealogy now. . Not to mention that she is Yan Wushuang's side room is the person they need to avoid, and it has nothing to do with them legally. Had it not been for Yuxi to speak to Qiu's family, he would not allow Yuchen to enter the ancestral hall.
Before this elder brother Chang, it was a decoration. But Brother Hua is different, his authority in Guogong Mansion is second only to Han Jianming. No one dares to violate his words.
After the incense, Yuchen left the ancestral hall. When he got outside, Yuchen asked, "When will Yuxi see me?"
Brother Hua said with a cold face: "Don't call the empress's name directly." The person he respects most is Yuxi, so no one is allowed to disrespect her.
Yuchen has her own pride, and she doesn't bow her head just because she lives in the Guogong Mansion. Seeing the look of Brother Hua, Yuchen's expression was a little cold: "Even if you rebuild the genealogy, but Yuxi is my sister, this can never be changed."
Brother Hua looked a little ugly, and said coldly: "When my father sees the empress, he won't call the empress by her name." This woman is really ridiculous, she thought she was who she was.
After a pause, Brother Hua said, "The great-grandmother asked the nanny to teach you for so many years. Why, don't you even know the inferiority now?"
Yuchen's face flushed red: "If you don't say I am your aunt, is it the work of a family member just like you are now?" Yuchen has been so humiliated all these years, not to mention this person is still her. Younger generation.
Brother Hua glanced at Yuchen coldly and asked, "Auntie? Do you think you are worthy?"
Yuchen thinks that Brother Hua's attitude is very strange: "Are you misunderstanding me?"
"Misunderstanding?" Brother Hua sneered: "I really admire you, and almost killed your Royal Highness. Now you can call the Queen Empress the Third Sister like a okay person." How thick should this face be.
This matter is the deepest pain in Yuchen's heart. Fingernails pinched his hands, Yu Chen said with red eyes: "She killed my son first, otherwise I won't harm Yun Qihao."
Brother Hua smiled, with a deep sneer on his face: "Who killed Zhou Yan, you know better than anyone. You dare not resent the culprit for revenge, but blame all this on the empress, you Don't you think you are ridiculous?" Not only ridiculous, but also hateful.
