Chapter 127 Separation
Chapter 127 Separation
From the Grand Master's Mansion to the Earl's Mansion, it was not completely dark yet.
Yu Qinglian's status is different now. Someone has been waiting outside the Earl's Mansion for a long time. After greeting each other, they walked into the house surrounded by mother and daughter.
While walking, Yu Shuhua saw Shen Xinyu's eyes and asked curiously: "Why are my cousin's eyes red and swollen?"
Before Shen Xinyu went out, she deliberately used a thick layer of makeup to cover it up, but she didn't expect to be seen.
When she was about to speak, Yu Qinglian stepped forward and said, "Your cousin is greedy for cold weather. She forgot to close the window last night and caught the cold. Today her eyes are swollen and her voice is hoarse."
"Huh?" Yu Shuqin asked suspiciously, "Is my cousin sick? I saw you going to the Prince's Mansion this morning."
Shen Xinyu spoke, and her voice was indeed hoarse, with a strong nasal sound: "I sent something to His Highness the Crown Prince this morning. I was worried that he would be out of illness soon."
"So that's it." Yu Shuqin didn't think much and said, "It's okay. I haven't seen my cousin since the mid-year banquet. I'm still worried."
"Go ahead and sit down." Yu Qinglian glanced at Shen Xinyu, who had a bad expression, and said to smooth things over, "Aren't the old ladies still waiting?"
After entering the door, several old ladies from the Earl's Mansion were there, but Yu Qinglian's mother was not seen.
Several old ladies were all concubines of the count. Later, because Yu Qinglian married high, Yu Qinglian's mother passed them over as concubines and offered them as equal wives to manage the rear house. None of them were convinced.
However, Yu Qinglian is the wife of the Grand Master in name only, so they have to endure it no matter how uncomfortable it is.
"Hello, ladies." After Yu Qinglian entered the door, she gave a symbolic salute and said, "Why don't you see your mother?"
"You came back just in time." The second old lady glanced at her lightly and said, "Your mother claimed to be ill and has not been seen for two days. As my daughter, come back and take care of the separation of the family on her behalf."
"Separate the family?" Yu Qinglian was stunned and said, "When my father was here, he once said that a lively and bustling family is the place for a family. Why do we suddenly want to separate the family?"
"There are some things we are reluctant to say. You should also know that your mother is not in charge of the back house at all." The third old lady took over the words and said: "How well the eldest lady managed it when she was still here."
"Later, your mother was brought up. She either failed to meet the monthly schedule or treated her children favorably. We have endured it for many years, but we finally couldn't bear it anymore."
Yu Qinglian didn't expect them to be so straightforward. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Do all the old ladies think so?"
Several old ladies said in unison: "Yes."
"I just came back, so we can't separate the families indiscriminately." Yu Qinglian said with a smile: "Let's wait until I see my mother and see what she says."
"Okay, we will have dinner later." The fourth old lady said, "I know you are coming back, so I informed everyone to be there tonight, so you can make a decision for your mother."
Several old ladies lost their usual respect for her. It seemed to be related to Shen Xinyu's failure to become the crown princess at the mid-year banquet.
These snobs!
When she left the hall and went to the courtyard of Yu Qinglian's mother, Hao's family, Granny Hua couldn't help but spat: "These people know how to add insult to injury."
"The back courtyard has always been like this." Yu Qinglian stepped forward a little faster: "I don't know what happened to my mother. These old ladies are nothing like fuel-efficient lamps."
"The old lady still has some tricks to suppress them after all these years. Don't worry." Aunt Hua comforted her.
After Hao became the mistress of the Earl's Mansion, her living place moved from the most peripheral position to the main courtyard.
At this time, the huge courtyard was completely silent.
Yu Qinglian quickly pushed the door open and walked in. She saw Mr. Hao half-lying on the imperial concubine's couch, eating fruit, with a maid squatting on each side to beat her legs. She felt very comfortable, and she didn't feel weak at all after getting sick.
"You are living so comfortably, why did you call me back?" Yu Qinglian's face changed, and her already depressed heart became a little more restless.
A trace of disgust flashed in Shen Xinyu's eyes, she turned her face away and said nothing, not even calling her grandmother.
In her heart, the Yu family is her shame, especially the Hao family who was born in a theater.
"Lian'er and Xinyu are back." Mr. Hao got up from the imperial concubine's bed, drove the maids away, and scolded: "Why didn't you inform me?"
"All the old ladies are waiting in the hall, you have no news?" Yu Qinglian's tone became more and more impatient: "It's not that you are sick, what's going on?"
"Oh, you don't know." Mr. Hao personally poured a cup of tea for each of Yu Qinglian and Shen Xinyu, and then said: "These old immortals were breaking up a while ago."
"Seeing that I didn't agree, I gave it up for the time being. Who knows what happened after the mid-year banquet, but they actually started making trouble again. This time, not only a few of them, but also the kids also started making trouble."
"Especially the boss. He officially inherited the earldom a few months ago and is a direct descendant. His words still carry weight. I couldn't hide but could only pretend to be sick and hide from people. I saw that I couldn't get through, so I asked you to come back."
For this mother, Yu Qinglian knew very well what kind of virtue it was, and said coldly: "Are you depriving them of something again?"
"How can it be embezzlement?" Hao's eyes evaded: "There are so many mouths to eat in the Earl's Mansion. There is little money coming in and a lot of money coming out. How can we not use it sparingly?"
"What I want is the truth." Yu Qinglian's face turned cold and she said, "It will be settled after dinner. You must let me know the whole story."
Mr. Hao put away his smile and said cautiously: "It's not a big deal. It's just that the ice bowl, melons and fruits have been reduced, and there is also meat. In such a hot day, eating meat will cause internal heat."
"You say so, but the actual situation must be worse." Yu Qinglian said with a straight face: "Why are you so confused? No matter how bad the Earl's Mansion is, it is still a hereditary marquis, and the boss is now a junior count."
"You control the back house and don't let the eldest daughter-in-law take care of it. I'll take care of it for you. But if word spreads about you doing this kind of deprivation, you have no shame. Xinyu Xinjiao, I, and Qingbo's family have shame."
"You think I am willing? The boss's salary is not enough. I can only ask for some money for each house." Ms. Hao still felt aggrieved: "Is it easy for me to manage this family?"
"The boss has also started a family and started a business. It's not easy for you to manage. You can leave it to the boss's wife." Yu Qinglian was upset and said: "After all, my mother has been in the house for many years."
"Have you never thought that the eldest brother has usurped my father's title and the family is really going to be separated? Who do you think you are? The old lady of the Earl's Mansion? Don't forget, the old lady is what the Earl's Mansion needs most!"
Hao felt guilty after being scolded, and lowered his head and said: "Okay, I know I was wrong, so please help me and don't separate the family."
"The family must not be divided." Yu Qinglian glanced sideways at Shen Xinyu and said, "Given the current situation, it is best for the Earl's Mansion to be safe and sound. Mother, why don't you hand over your rights as the head of the family."
The mother and daughter discussed in the house for a long time, and even if Mrs. Hao was unwilling, she had to agree with Yu Qinglian's approach.
After all, Yu Qinglian, who is married to Shen Heshan, is the backbone of the Hao family.
Their mother and daughter were planning, and so was the newly-promoted young count on the other side of the yard.
The plan to separate the families was originally instigated by Shen Zhuoxi.
