Chapter 817
She and Li Langzhong will return to Jingyuan Mansion soon, and they can't help their niece, so they can only ask Chi'er to help with what they can.
"Then I'll come here to get medicine from now on." Yao Mengxian didn't want to ask the clinic for help, but just wanted to take care of her uncle's apprentice's business.
"My aunt said just now that Dr. Gu's brother is an official in the court, but Gu Jinyu, Mr. Gu?"
Yao Mengxian suddenly remembered that the surname of Li Langzhong's apprentice was Gu, and since Dr. Gu was not very old, Gu Chengyu was most likely to be an official in the court at a young age.
"It's him, why? Do you know each other?" Yao felt a little strange, but as soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized.
"Could it be that his teacher was your grandfather Liang Shoufu?"
Yao and Li Langzhong never left after they settled in Shangling Village. Later, they heard that Gu Chengyu had worshiped a great Confucian from the capital as his teacher, but they didn't pay much attention to it.
They also didn't know that Liang Zhirui used to teach in the school of Jingyuan Mansion. The world is so big, but sometimes it is so small.
"Grandfather is no longer the chief assistant." Yao Mengxian replied desolately.
"Hey! I also heard about this after I came to the capital, and now the chief assistant has become Xia Qing."
Yao shi was not without emotion, no wonder her niece and daughter had a hard time in the Duke's mansion.
If Mrs. Liang was still the first assistant, how could those people in the Duke's Mansion dare to bully her?
She looked at the beautiful eyes of her niece, and suddenly had an idea.
"Then Gu Chengyu is quite capable. Although he came from a poor background, he is already at the sixth rank at a young age, and his future prospects should not be bad."
She stared at Yao Mengxian's face, and she had a plan in mind.
"Grandfather also often praised Mr. Gu for his ability and openness, and he was extremely filial to them."
Speaking of Gu Chengyu's character, Yao Mengxian couldn't help nodding in praise.
Her grandfather secretly said that he was very lucky to have such a good student.
With Gu Chengyu, she is not too worried about the life of her grandfather and grandmother in the future.
People often say to raise children to guard against old age, and there is only one aunt left in the grandfather's family. Originally, she was still very worried about the grandfather and the others.
But now with Gu Chengyu, he can be a teacher for a day and a father for life, and his grandfather and grandmother can be counted on for the rest of their lives.
As for her, she smiled self-deprecatingly.
A daughter of a boudoir who has to rely on her grandfather's family to protect herself, will be a duckweed on the cusp of the storm for the rest of her life. How can her grandfather's family rely on her?
"Your stepmother is from the capital?" Yao Shi thought of her niece's stepmother, and she didn't know whose daughter her elder brother married later.
"My stepmother is from Sunan Prefecture. Ke's ancestors were also well-known, but now they are somewhat defeated. The stepmother's house is a branch, cough! The next generation will have five clothes."
Yao Mengxian said a few words about Ke's background, with an embarrassed expression on her face.
"What? How could father agree to this marriage? Can the Ke family be considered a famous family? This was easy to say a hundred years ago, but what does the Ke family look like now? Besides, your stepmother's line is still a branch. It's just an ordinary family."
Yao shi was dumbfounded. With such a background, she would be the eldest housewife of the Duke's mansion?It is said that the Ke family is prosperous, that is all a thing of the past.Now the dynasty has changed.
Although she is only a stepmother, how can a girl from such a family take on such a big responsibility?
"The eldest brother of the stepmother is now a co-prefect in the Tianjing Mansion. Their family is related by marriage to Master Ma's family of Zuo Shaoqing in Dali Temple in the capital. The niece of the stepmother is now the daughter-in-law of Master Ma's second concubine son."
Having said that, Yao finally understood, it should be because of the Ma family's matchmaking.
Sunan Mansion is adjacent to Yingnan Mansion, and far away from the capital. Without the Ma family's promise of marriage, how could eldest brother marry the Ke family?
It's just that this kind of background is too unreasonable, and it's no wonder that Ke Shi makes things difficult for his niece.
After all, he was born in a small family, and his upbringing in the girl's family was quite poor.
As long as there are some well-behaved families, even though they are the stepmother, they will not be too embarrassing to the former prostitute who stayed behind, after all, they still need some face.
It's not unusual for Ke's background to embarrass his niece. The elder brother probably also took a fancy to Ke's appearance, and reckoned that Ke should be a beauty.
"Does your stepmother have children?" Yao asked impatiently why her elder brother married Ke, anyway, she married her, and now the most important thing to care about is how many children Ke gave birth to.
If you give birth to a son-in-law, it will be troublesome if you have thoughts that you shouldn't have.
"The stepmother gave birth to a baby a few years ago, but she was injured and never had a baby. It was not found out that she was pregnant until two months ago."
Yao Mengxian said that although her face is still very calm, her heart has already been turned upside down.
This child had also been in the dream, and when the child was born, her life became even more difficult.
This is a boy. In order for the elder brother to successfully inherit the title, how many things did the elder sister do to hurt her behind the scenes?
After her mother passed away, she and her elder brother should depend on each other, but the elder brother and sister-in-law didn't think so.
"Then you have to remind your elder brother that you must be careful. Your elder brother is a man, and he will not be able to take care of the inner courtyard after all. You and your sister-in-law should fight together as a team."
Yao Shi also had a sad face when he said that, Liang Shi went by himself, but left a pair of sons and daughters to suffer in the world.
The corner of Yao Mengxian's mouth twitched, but she didn't speak after all.
Not wanting the master to hide it, Lian Xin and Gao Mama couldn't bear it.
"Why does the young master need a girl's reminder? The young lady has such a difficult time in the mansion. The young master and the young mistress have never asked a single question. They have a lot of schemes behind their backs, and they know how to curry favor with the old lady." Gao Mama said angrily.
"Mother Gao!" Yao Mengxian frowned and scolded, what did she want to say to annoy her aunt?
"Mama Gao is right, girl! The maidservant and Madam Gao are really angry. Today, the girl wants to punish the servant girl, and the servant girl admits it. In Liang's residence, the girl worried that Mrs. Liang and the others would be angry and hurt her body, so she always reported good things but not bad ones. But now in front of my aunt, the girl is also hiding it, so sooner or later she will get sick. Didn’t Master Li say it? The girl is very thoughtful and puts everything in her heart, how can she be healthy?"
Lian Xin crackled and shook the master's bottom completely, and now she wiped away her tears, causing Yao Mengxian to sigh helplessly.
She also knew that Gao Mama and the others were complaining for themselves, looking at the sad two, she couldn't speak out how to reprimand them.
"What? Your eldest brother treats you badly?" Yao was really surprised, these are brothers and sisters!
"Brother is a man, how can he manage the affairs of the inner court? I am lonely, and I am not very close to my sister-in-law. It is reasonable for her not to help me."
