medicine lady

Chapter 38
This is the second time that the grandparents and grandchildren are sitting in this room to discuss matters.

The last time it was because of the emerald green matter, Ye Yunshui gained a firm foothold in the Ye Mansion through bitter tricks, but this time it was much more complicated than the last time, Ye Yunshui could guess from the way Ye Zhongtian looked at her that Ye Chongtian was in his heart making some sort of decision.

"The Shangqing government still insists that you marry me." Ye Chongtian said, "You should be mentally prepared."

The old lady let out a long sigh, just looked at Ye Yunshui and didn't speak.

Ye Yunshui also sighed in his heart, is the Ye family going to sacrifice themselves?
Seeing that Ye Yunshui didn't answer, and there wasn't even a trace of expression on his face, Ye Chongtian didn't know how to speak out after preparing a stomach full of comfort.

"Zhang Yushan will be promoted to the supervisor of the Ministry of Industry after the year, and he will be the third grade." It took Ye Chongtian a long time to say this.

Ye Yunshui knew what Ye Chongtian meant. Zhang Yushan was Zhang Hong's father. Ye Chongtian wanted to say that she married the grandson of a second-rank official official and the third-rank official's son.But if Ye Chongtian really resigned from the post of doctor, then it would be considered Ye Yunshui's superiority.

But Ye Yunshui still didn't answer half a sentence.

Ye Chongtian and the old lady looked at each other, then got up and left. Before he left, his face was cloudy. Ye Yunshui thought that he was doing it for his official position, and he would never be so affectionate as to think that he was guilty of himself. Father's love may be like the moon reflected in the water at night, you can see it, but that shining light can never really warm your heart.

The old lady shook Ye Yunshui's hand, "Grandmother knows you are suffering, but how can a woman ever let herself be in her life?"

Ye Yunshui forcefully forced a smile, "Grandmother, don't worry, granddaughter doesn't have to do anything, she will definitely not embarrass Ye Mansion." Ye Yunshui said this firmly, but she already had another plan in mind.

There was a bit of pity in the eyes of the old lady. Ye Yunshui knew that she was really reluctant, but he was also a little moved, but this did not allow Ye Yunshui to erase the resentment in his heart, whether it was towards herself or her predecessor who had hanged herself. Both of them wanted to get rid of this disgusting marriage, but neither of them succeeded.

Perhaps life is like this, grievances are not uncomfortable, grievances need no complaints to be uncomfortable. For the first time, Ye Yunshui couldn't bear it anymore, so he bid farewell to the old lady and returned to his small courtyard. She didn't say a word, no one knew what she was thinking, Mother Su tried to comfort her several times, but all she saw was a blood jade unicorn pendant tightly clutched in her hand...

The second day was the big sacrifice day for Ye Yunshui's birth mother. The Ye Mansion was busy early in the morning, and the servants were busy loading the sacrifices. Go to the funeral.

Ye Yunshui stayed up all night, and was served by Chunyue and changed into plain clothes very early. Accompanied by Su's mother, she first went to the lotus garden to meet Ye Zhang's family.

Ye Yunshui met Ye Chongtian's three aunts for the first time in Ye Zhang's lotus garden. Apart from Aunt Chen, there were also Aunt Zhuang and Aunt Bai, all of whom were dressed as women in their thirties. Dressed in plain clothes, she stood in front of Mrs. Ye Zhang with lowered brows. It could be seen that she was a beautiful woman when she was young, but now she is a half-old lady who is in a precarious position.

Ye Yunshui felt the different gazes of the three aunts, Aunt Chen's eyes were a little more concerned, while the other two aunts just looked at them secretly.

Ye Yunshui didn't want to have any close contact with the three aunts, which would easily make Ye Zhang hate them.

I met with the three aunts separately, and Ye Yunshui, under the leadership of Ye Zhangshi, took a sedan chair to the gate of the mansion to change into a carriage. One car, the three aunts ride in the same car, and the second room rides separately, while the other servants and maids follow on foot.

Ye Qianru came out on the first day after being grounded by the old lady. Although she looked a little resentful on her face, she didn't dare to complain aloud. Perhaps she was really scared these two days, and she was not as arrogant as before.

Ye Zhang looked at Ye Yunshui with disdain, "Today is 29 years old, and the day after tomorrow will be your happy day."

Ye Yunshui knew that Mrs. Ye Zhang was picking things up on purpose, but she was not annoyed, "What does mother want to tell you?"

"Don't worry, I will explain to you the night before the happy day, and I will definitely not let you lose face in front of others." The meaning of Ye Zhang's words and Ye Yunshui didn't want to think too deeply, " There is an old mother who is bothering."

"I know you hate me, but without the consent of the old lady and your father, this marriage would not have been possible." Ye Zhang's words surprised Ye Yunshui. Apart from provoking her relationship with the old lady and Ye Chongtian, these words also have a soft meaning?
Ye Yunshui didn't think that Ye Zhang felt that she was going to get married. This thorn in her side was finally going to be pulled out, so she could have some conscience, "How dare Yunshui refuse to follow the orders of her parents."

Ye Zhang looked at her with a bit of complacency, and said nothing more. Ye Qian thought of Ye Yunshui's 120-carrying dowry again, and her face was full of jealousy and hatred.

The Ye family's ancestral hall has not existed for many years, but today, many relatives of the Ye family came to watch the ceremony, and Ye Yunshui also met her fourth uncle at this time, Chen Zhongshu, the fourth uncle of the Chen family, and Chen Zhongshu. Xu Shi sent him to the same sacrifice, but the other Chen family members did not show up.

When Ye Yunshui got off the car, he felt that Chen Zhongshu was looking at her, but she didn't avoid her eyes. Instead of looking at each other, Chen Zhongshu nodded acquiescingly, and Ye Yunshui was accompanied by Su's mother to greet her. Chen Zhongshu didn't say much, just said: "Go ahead The ceremony of the great sacrifice has its own time to gather."

At this time, Ye Zhang came to call Ye Yunshui to salute, and the ceremony of offering sacrifices to Ye Yunshui's birth mother began.

Firstly, sacrifices were offered one by one, and Ye Chongtian and Ye Zhang saluted. In front of the tablet of Ye Yunshui's birth mother, Ye Zhang had to be a concubine. Even if it was just a dead person's tablet, she still had to abide by the rules. There is a reason for the thorn in the heart.

After Ye Chongtian and Ye Zhang's salute, it was Ye Yunshui, the legitimate daughter, who came forward, and Ye Yunshui kowtowed three times to the memorial tablet seriously, an unexplained sadness welled up in his heart, tears fell like beads in an instant, pear blossoms drizzled with rain, The more she cried, the more fierce she became, and the people around her who knew the truth all felt sad.

Ye Zhang's complexion was a bit ugly, and she winked at Mama Su who was serving by Ye Yunshui's side. Although Mama Su was reluctant, she had no choice but to step forward to help Ye Yunshui to the side, booing and comforting, Ye Yunshui didn't know why she fell. Tears, maybe she was crying about her predecessor, maybe she was crying about herself, the grievances of the two lifetimes were all vented at this moment, and there was a trend that could not be stopped.

Ye Yunshui didn't remember the sacrificial ceremony very clearly in the future, but just went through the process according to the procedures.

Ye Chongtian invited the monks from Jing'an Temple to chant sutras, and Ye Yunshui also saw Kong Zhen, who was sitting on the futon with his senior brothers in a serious look, doing chant with one hand, and chanting scriptures in his mouth, It looked very focused.Perhaps only innocent people have such a purified heart, Ye Yunshui couldn't help laughing at himself: She has never been so peaceful, and she is destined to be inseparable from the word "fighting" in her life, this is human life.

The sacrificial ceremony lasted for two hours, and these monks had to recite scriptures here for seven days, which would last until the fifth day of the new year. Ye Yunshui returned to the mansion with everyone in the Ye Mansion, and told Chun Yue what he had seen Kong Zhen, and Chun Yue was very happy, and specially wrapped the saved candy into a package, "I will ask Hua'er's father to send it to him later."

Ye Yunshui didn't stop her, she had already started to think of a way out for Chunyue, Chunyue had suffered a lot with her, she didn't want Chunyue to follow her into the place of tigers and wolves in Shangqing Mansion, even if she wanted to put all her eggs in one basket, she wouldn't. He would pull the people around him and touch the blood jade unicorn pendant next to his body, Ye Yunshui was still in deep thought.

In the evening, the old lady suddenly asked Ye Yunshui to come over, but she said that the Chen residence would come to pick up Ye Yunshui and return to the Chen residence for a reunion tomorrow. The old lady wanted to help Ye Yunshui with some greetings, "... Chen The mansion is a jeweler, and those who choose some jade and pearl hairpins will not make the Chen mansion laugh. I told Mr. Zhao to get you some high-quality old wild ginseng from the warehouse, and give it to your three uncles, bird's nest Four copies, one for each aunt in the room, you just need to prepare more small gifts for the rest of the brothers and sisters, it's just a thought."

"Grandmother is more thoughtful." Ye Yunshui knew that the precious medicinal materials that the old lady sold would not be too bad.

"Let's also prepare some little silver nudes for the servants. The Chen family is richer than ours, and the servants have a higher level of vision."

The old lady's words were a bit sour. Ye Yunshui just responded but didn't say much. The old lady must have selfish intentions. She had never mentioned her grandfather's family in front of her in these years, but now she told her about her grandfather's family. Everyone has a high vision, this remark gave Ye Yunshui a thorn in advance, and told her that Ye Yunshui was from the Ye family, and no matter how close her grandfather was, she couldn't get closer to the Ye family.

Ye Yunshui felt that the old lady's little thoughts were boring, so she said that she was going back to prepare a gift for her cousins, and said goodbye in advance.

This night, Ye Yunshui was thinking, why did the Chen family pick her up on New Year's Eve?There is no reason for a girl to return to her grandfather's house on the [-]th day of the next day. Could it be that this day just happened to be because she was going to get married?
