The old lady wanted to scare her, and let her kowtow to admit her mistake, but she should not, and picked up the teacup to sip slowly.
Mama Ma brought a new plate of pastries, and Yu Xiang flipped through the booklet while nibbling on it, brushing off the pastry crumbs that fell from the pages from time to time.
Yu Pinyan caught a glimpse of a small portrait of a man attached to the booklet, and his face was gloomy for a moment. He was about to reach out to grab it, but his younger sister leaned towards the old ancestor, pointed at the small portrait with her fingertips, and said silently with her mouth, "This good."
The old lady lowered her eyes and saw that it was the one she liked the most, and the corners of her mouth could not help but rise slightly. Xiang'er is the most honest and sees the most clearly. Although he comes from a poor family and has a low official position, he has good morals and a generous temper. What's more, his family has a simple population and strict rules. The man has no children after forty. Can take concubines, can be called a good match.
If a girl of any family married, there would be no in-laws to make things difficult for her, and no concubines to make things difficult for her. As long as she was strong enough to conceive a son-in-law, her life would be indescribably comfortable.
Yu Xiang observed the old lady's expression, and saw that she was smiling, and she knew it, and she became envious of Yu Siyu. Yu Pinyan pursed her thin lips, took out the booklet in her hand and took a quick glance, her gaze stopped at the sentence 'Only a childless forty can take a concubine'. Little Vinegar Tanzi chose this person because of this.
After thinking for a moment, he smiled slightly, and casually threw the booklet aside. It is enough to have Xiang'er in this life, he only needs to guard Xiang'er to live alone, and he thinks that in the future he will make her happy and satisfied.
Brother Yu Xiangheng glanced at it, picked up the booklet that was about to fall, and put it on the kang table.
Yu Siyu was still begging for mercy, but Yu Miaoqi had already noticed the little tricks above, turned her eyes around the booklet, and immediately knelt down to intercede, "I beg grandma to forgive my sister once. The Fang family has declined to this point. It is true that we cannot marry. Going out won’t make people laugh at my Yonglehou’s mansion?” Since the old lady won’t let Yu Siyu marry into the Fang family, she will do it as a favor, and anyway, when the Fang family’s mother and son quarrel, Yu Siyu will have to marry if she doesn’t want to.
"My Yongle Hou Mansion has never been afraid of people making jokes, so let them say as they please." The old lady snorted coldly.
Yu Miaoqi continued to dissuade, "Grandma doesn't care about the reputation of the Marquis Mansion, she should also think about the happiness of my sister's life. Do you have the heart to see her marry such a family and live a life of hunger and cold?"
"It's not that I have the heart, it's that she was determined at the beginning. It's not that I didn't persuade her, it's that she said that what she valued was not Mr. Fang's family background but his character. She feels that the love is full, and I can't help it." .” The old lady refused to let go at all, she had to teach Yu Siyu a lesson she would never forget.
Yu Siyu regretted it a long time ago and was afraid. She wished she could break her head to soften the old lady's heart, and said the truth for a while, "Old ancestor, my granddaughter was wrong, and my granddaughter lied. Didn't my granddaughter look at you at the beginning?" Mr. Fang's character is his family's wealth. I went for his million-dollar family wealth. Now I already know the truth of "wealth is like clouds, do it and cherish it". You persuaded me several times before. For my own good, I was really wrong, very wrong. Please forgive me this time!" After finishing the words, there were a few loud noises.
Yu Miaoqi also kowtowed, and when she straightened her waist, she didn't forget to wipe Yu Siyu's tears, as if she felt the same and felt pity.
Yu Xiang looked at her attitude coldly, and couldn't help but secretly smiled.
Gein knew that this person was the heroine, and she was capable of stirring up wind and rain. As soon as Fang Fu returned home, Yu Xiang ordered people to stare at her. How could she not know the good things she did to destroy Yu Siyu? Behind the scenes, she was vicious, but on the surface she was gentle and gentle. If she really sold Yu Siyu, Yu Siyu had to count the money for her. Look, this idiot was so moved that he held his hands and wept, hugging and crying, if he knew the truth, he wouldn't be pissed to death.
Of course, Yu Xiang also learned that Yu Miaoqi's girl was secretly inquiring about Zhuangyuan Lang, but there were too many girls in Beijing who inquired about Zhuangyuan Lang, and even the princesses frequently found excuses to hang out in front of Xue's mansion. She didn't take it seriously, she just thought that the girl's heart had sprouted.
In this way, it took a long time before he realized that the person was actually his own brother.
Seeing that Yu Siyu had already realized her mistake, the old lady soothed her expression, and threw the brochure at hand over, "Please take a look, I will send someone to discuss marriage for you if you keep pushing, you will Why don't you marry at all, and go to the countryside to accompany your aunt to take care of her old age."
Only then did Lin speak slowly, "Thank you, old ancestor?"
Yu Siyu came back to his senses, kowtowed to the old lady quickly, then picked up the booklet, sat down with Yu Miaoqi's support, his face suddenly turned from pale to purple. She finally came to her senses, the old lady was deliberately scaring her today, otherwise she would not have prepared such a thick booklet, and she must have started dating a few months ago.
Realizing this, all the gratitude that had arisen in her heart turned into resentment, and her fingers clenched unconsciously crumpled the book.
The old lady's eyes darkened, and she sighed silently: Forget it, it's considered my best to send her out, and I won't care about her life or death in the future. How can one and two be such ungrateful things? !
Yu Xiang was still considering whether to help Yu Siyu secretly, but seeing this scene, she immediately dismissed her thoughts, and raised her hand to cover the sneer at the corner of her lips with a handkerchief.
Seeing that the matter was over, Lin's mother and daughter got up to leave, but were stopped by Yu Pinyan, "Yu Miaoqi, if you come to my yard again in the future, go where you came from, my Yu family can't afford it." You big Buddha."
"What are you talking about? Miao Qi doesn't understand." This was the first time Yu Pinyan expressed his intention to drive her out of the Hou Mansion in front of her. She was so frightened that her face turned pale. Can't use it either.
Mrs. Lin was stunned for a moment, and immediately distinguished, "Yan'er, you misunderstood, those two people were sent by me, you are already twenty-one now, there should be a few people around you who know the cold and the hot."
The old lady could hear the clues after only a few words, and understood that it was Lin's mother and daughter who warmed the bed next to their grandson. She nodded and said, "Since it was arranged by your mother, you can accept it, and don't care how old you are." " In the past, the granddaughter was in charge of the house, and the grandson didn't open his mouth. The old lady lived too leisurely and forgot such important things.
Yu Pin spoke sarcastically, "You arranged it? Can you take the initiative to think of me? Mother, don't be joking." Then he glanced at Yu Miaoqi, and warned in a deep voice, "You just put someone next to your brother as the housekeeper, and you stretched your hand too long gone."
Lin's mother and daughter were so ashamed and angry that he realized that Yu Pinyan's perception of them had risen from indifference to disgust. When he dislikes someone, what that person says or does is wrong.
But this time the old lady didn't feel that Yu Miaoqi had done anything wrong. Although it was indeed inappropriate for a girl's family to meddle in her brother's affairs, it was also for the sake of the sons of the Hou family, and she was planning to say a few good words to get her grandson to take him in. Yu Pinyan said cautiously, "Old Ancestor, don't you forget how your grandson was poisoned back then. You didn't ask or check, and they sent him here with just a few pleadings. Do you think your grandson didn't die fast enough? What's more, how many confidential files are in my yard, and if one or two corners of the Hou's mansion are spread out, they will suffer disaster. Therefore, the grandson of the servant who doesn't know the background can't accept it, and dare not accept it."
The grandson was poisoned three times that year, and the first two times couldn't find out why. It was the last time that someone sent someone to spy on him and found out that the person who poisoned him was actually a close girl who grew up with his grandson. Continue to investigate, but the old lady was almost scared. After death, all the maids and servants who were a little close to the grandson were secretly bought.
Back then those people were able to do this just for a title, but now that the grandson is an official and commander of the capital, he has countless secrets of officials in his hands. If the woman sent to him was a nail sent by someone, the trouble would be no small matter, ranging from ruining his grandson's reputation to ruining the Yu Mansion's family.
The old lady didn't want to be okay, but when she thought about it, her head broke out in cold sweat, her hand holding the Buddhist beads began to tremble, and she said angrily, "Mrs. Lin, I'll leave it to you if you want to take care of the housekeeper. You are not allowed to interfere with the affairs of the yard." , and next time, just get the hell out of here!" Sangmen Xing, really two Sangmen Xings.
While leaning over to pat the old lady on the back, Yu Xiang shot a mocking look at Yu Miaoqi, who was frightened and admitted her mistake.
Yu Miaoqi's pale complexion suddenly turned livid.
The old lady regained her breath, held her granddaughter Bai Nen's little hand, and sighed, "Xiang'er is safe. When Xiang'er was the housekeeper, there was so much filth. A girl who has not left the cabinet meddles in the affairs of her brother's house. Who will teach you the rules?" In the future, show some face! Walk around, I will be annoying when I see you!"
Lin's mother and daughter kowtowed to confess their crimes, and walked out with superficial steps. Yu Siyu felt a lot better when she saw someone suffering with her, so she hurriedly stepped forward to help Yu Miaoqi, and even gave her a comforting smile.
The siblings stayed with the old lady for dinner, and while the old lady went back to change clothes, Yu Xiang grabbed her brother's neck and kissed him deeply on the cheek.
Yu Pinyan couldn't stop laughing because of the loud chirping sound, he hugged his sister and rubbed her for a good meal.
After Lin's mother and daughter returned with Yu Siyu, they were annoyed and unwilling, but they didn't dare to make trouble. Yu Siyu tossed the booklet vigorously, because the men in it were all out of her choice range, the handsome ones had no wealth, the rich ones had no looks, and those with both good looks and wealth came from merchants with low status, so she was really worried to death.
Seeing that three days had passed, she begged the old lady for another five days.
Lin's mother and daughter were quiet, either cultivating themselves in the mansion, or going to temples to offer incense and worship Buddha. Lin's plan was to hold a banquet to introduce her daughter to the noble ladies in Beijing, but Yu Miaoqi stopped her. She felt that it would be safest to spread her good reputation before holding a banquet. How can a one-sided relationship be enough to be praised
Within half a month, news of the Second Miss of the Yu Mansion's return home spread. The second lady was fostered in Shuiyue Temple since she was a child, and her master Nai Shuiyue Temple presided over Kong Shitai. As soon as the news came out, all the attention of the capital, Dudao Second Miss was a Buddhist, and she was calm and elegant, gentle and beautiful, and she was completely opposite to the perverse Yu Xiang.
In fact, most of these people have never even seen Yu Miaoqi's face, and the reason why they admire her so much is because of Shitai Kong's face. Although Shuiyue Nunnery is not as prestigious as Zhenguo Temple, it is a well-known place for Qingxiu, and it does not accept pilgrims in leisure. It was famous for its strict rules in the Han Dynasty.
Master Liaokong of Shuiyue Temple is the direct elder sister of the current emperor. At the age of eight, she became a monk by enlightening Buddhism and became a monk. aloof.
Can the disciple she fancy have extraordinary aptitude? Therefore, before the noble lady in Beijing saw anyone, she first outlined Yu Miaoqi's glorious image, and she firmly believed in it.
In fact, Yu Miaoqi is not a disciple of Kong Shitai, she just heard about Kong Shitai's legend, and also learned that the other party's return date is uncertain, and the gang of nuns in Shuiyue nunnery have never cared about world affairs and devoted themselves to cultivating hard. How dare you tell such a big lie.
Even if someone tried to verify it deliberately, they would not be able to enter Shuiyue Temple. When Yu Miaoqi returned home, she heard from a nun in the nunnery that if it wasn't for Yu Dutong's face, their nunnery hadn't received pilgrims for more than 30 years.
She also inquired afterward, and Shuiyue Nunnery had indeed closed the mountain gate and no one could enter or leave. In this way, her past was strictly covered up. Regarding this point, even if she was extremely unwilling, she had to admit that Yu Pinyan did consider her, but not as much as Yu Xiang.
But she will not reduce her resentment towards Yu Pinyan because of this. She will never forget the two imprisonments in her life.
