The Ups and Downs of Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 98
After the children took a nap, Fang Xiu asked He Huai'an, "My lord, what did Yuanwai Lu say?"

He Huai'an was a little helpless, "He said that he swore to his dead wife back then, that he would never marry again in this life, and everyone around him can testify that he can't break the vow just because his wife passed away. He just said that although he can't give Yunniang a title, he will give her Live as a wife for the rest of your life without any second thoughts."

A woman who is a concubine really has no protection.

"Since Lu Yuanwai doesn't want to marry Yunniang, my lord can't force it. However, if Yunniang can have a man and a woman by her side in the future, it can be counted on."

"I really can't force him to do anything, and I can't let Yunniang leave him." He Huai'an felt powerless, "However, Yunniang still has me, it's just that my status is worse."

"Yes, my lord, not only you are here, but also Siyuan and the others. We are all Yunniang's backing. If Lu Yibei dares to bully Yunniang, I will take the children and smash his house!" Fang Xiuyi I can't think of any other more effective method.

"So that's why you asked me to help the children find martial arts masters!" He Huai'an once again saw Fang Xiuyi's straightforwardness.

"Hehe, these are two different things." Fang Xiuyi smiled, "By the way, my lord, what can Yun Niang remember now?"

"She can only remember some things when she was a child, and she can't remember anything after that."

"Take it easy, as long as she feels safe and relaxed, she will remember those things. However, I still think of one thing. When we went to Yingtian Mansion at the beginning of the year, we asked the two elder sisters-in-law about Yunniang's whereabouts. Now that Yun Niang has been found, shall we send a letter to the two sister-in-laws?"

"It should. You write the letter and prepare the gift, and I will send someone to deliver it."

"Okay. My lord, you also want to open some. It's better for many things to happen naturally. Although it seems difficult now, maybe it won't be a problem in a few years."

He Huai'an nodded, smiled and said, "I see. Thank you, Xiuyi."

"Don't be so polite, we are a family, and I should do everything."

A few days later, Yunniang sent someone to say that she wanted to visit her mother's grave.He Huai'an immediately made arrangements to suspend both Siyuan and Feiyu's classes for half a day. On the morning of his rest day, he took everyone to the outskirts of the city.

The autumn rain falls thinly, telling the sorrow of parting in the world.

Because of his identity, Lu Yanming did not come, but Lu Yibei offered to worship as his son-in-law, and He Huai'an did not refuse.

The moment Yunniang got out of the car, Fang Xiuyi felt that He Huai'an seemed to have paused in her steps. She looked at He Huai'an strangely, but there seemed to be a trace of confusion on his face, and she didn't know what he remembered.

"What's the matter, my lord?" Fang Xiuyi asked in a low voice.

He Huai'an stared at Yunniang, and replied: "Back then, Mother liked to comb Yunniang's hair like this."

Fang Xiuyi didn't look carefully just now, after listening, she turned to look at Yunniang carefully.

Yunniang was wearing plain clothes today, but her hair was combed in a very complicated way. All her hair was combed up, and three small buns were tied on top of her head. The middle one was a little higher, and it was inserted with the faded bead flower. , and no more jewelry.Standing there, Yunniang is like a fairy princess, which is too similar to He Huai'an, not like ordinary people.

After everyone saw the ceremony, He Huaian led everyone to kneel in front of the grave.

"Mother, Changsheng found my sister." He Huai'an burned three sticks of incense to his mother.

Yunniang knelt beside He Huai'an and kowtowed three times in a straight manner.

"Mother, Changning is back, which made my mother worry. Please forgive Changning for being unfilial. If there is an afterlife, please ask mother to entrust the birth as Changning's child." Yunniang spoke very slowly, almost every word, and she was very sad. , crying out of tune.

Fang Xiuyi is a mother, and she couldn't help but shed tears when she heard it. Her mother-in-law is such a good person, but she has lived so hard. Before she died, she thought that both her children were gone.

After Fang Xiuyi and the two children kowtowed, Lu Yibei also kowtowed.

"Madam He, I will take good care of Yunniang, and I also ask the old lady to supervise and encourage her in the spirit of heaven."

Fang Xiuyi sighed secretly, but she couldn't tell if Yunniang's behavior was good or bad.

Now that the eldest sister has been found, it should be because everyone communicates more frequently, but He Huai'an and Yun Niang are very calm, it seems that all these years of hard work to find is an illusion.Fang Xiuyi really didn't understand why this happened, but fortunately He Huai'an didn't mind the relationship between her and Yunniang.

One month after returning to Beijing, Fang Xiuyi had a very busy life. Except for a few visits to Lu's residence, she basically never went out of the residence.She had been away from the mansion for more than a month, and even though Fei Yu was watching, she still spent a few days looking over the affairs of the mansion.Most of the time every day, I spend peeking at Siyuan's training and admiring the flying feather carvings.The reason why she wanted to peek at Siyuan's training was because she didn't want to put pressure on Siyuan either.But every time I read it, I would be so distressed that I would cry, and then I would turn to He Huai'an's study, either to cry silently, or to watch the father and daughter learn to carve from the master.At the beginning, the three of them were a little flustered, especially the master, who never thought that an official wife would cry so loudly in public, but then I got used to it.

Fang Xiuyi discussed with the kitchen, adjusted Siyuan's diet to the most energy-replenishing recipe, and then made more clothes for Siyuan when she was free, such hard training, too much clothes.

Fang Xiuyi's sentimentality during this period made He Huai'an a lot of effort, and he comforted and enlightened him softly and patiently every time. Later, Fang Xiuyi felt a little embarrassed and simply copied books and practiced calligraphy in He Huai'an's study.She found that it was difficult for her to read the books at this time, but she found it acceptable when transcribing, but it was a bit of a waste of paper. Fortunately, He Huaian could still afford it.

One month later, Fang Xiuyi's mood stabilized a lot.When watching Siyuan's training, I was a little more appreciative and less sad; my relationship with Yunniang was also a lot closer.

On this day, He Huaian came to her with a box.

"My lord!" Fang Xiuyi was embroidering Siyuan's clothes.

"Yes." He Huai'an put the box in front of Fang Xiuyi, "I have prepared some things for Yunniang this month, you take them and give them to her."

He Huai'an had never been to Lu's residence, and every time Yunniang came over, he would quietly accompany her for a while, watching the two women talk.

"What is it? Can I see it?"

"Of course." He Huai'an opened the box, "This is a 10 taels silver note, please help me get it."

Fang Xiuyi looked at the stacks of bank notes in surprise, not because of jealousy, but because the way He Huai'an expressed his concern was really direct.

"I'm sorry, Xiuyi, so much money was given to Yunniang, don't mind, I will give you more in the future." He Huai'an quickly explained, "I just thought that Yunniang has been wandering outside all these years, has no relatives, and has suffered a lot. Suffering, I don't know how to make up for it."

"My lord misunderstood, I don't mind. It's just that it's not easy for my lord to raise 10 taels in a month. How about this, I'll get another eight sets of jewelry for Yunniang from the account of the mansion."

"Okay, you can figure it out, and I will supply it to you later."

"Let's talk about it. Actually, my lord, you care so much about Yunniang, why don't you leave it to Yunniang yourself?"

He Huaian was silent.

Fang Xiuyi didn't know what was wrong between the two of them, and she couldn't convince her. Yunniang also cared about He Huai'an very much, and asked about He Huai'an and his mother every time they chatted, but neither of them knew. Take a step forward.

In the end, He Huai'an still didn't answer.

Every time Fang Xiu entered the courtyard of Yunniang and Lu Yibei, she would take a look at a rockery on the east side of the courtyard.The rockeries of other people's homes are all designed outside. As the landscape of the whole mansion, it looks very grand and artistic.But I don't know what Lu Yibei thought, he put the rockery in the yard of his main courtyard, and there is a special space under the rockery, where there are tables and chairs, where you can drink tea and lie down.It's really weird.

Yunniang doesn't care about the house on weekdays, the main thing is to embroider or talk with Lu Yibei and Lu Yanming.

"Xiuyi, you're here!" Yunniang greeted her happily.

"Yes, I'll come to see you. Tell me, how long has it been since you came to see me?" Fang Xiu asked jokingly.

"I've been busy embroidering something recently, and it will be ready in a few days." Yunniang spoke more and more quickly.

"Okay, I believe you!"

In the back room, Fang Xiuyi asked the maid to put down several boxes.

"what is this?"

"Yunniang, open it and take a look."

Yunniang opened the boxes one by one, and said in surprise, "Xiuyi, what are you going to do?"

"Yunniang, I know Lu Yuanwai has everything here, and it treats you very well. But you are here, adults will not be at ease, so I prepared these things for you. Don't refuse, just accept them all. Otherwise, adults will not think about eating and drinking."

"Xiuyi, I can't take it. The master will never lack me for anything, and besides, there are many people around me. You go back and tell Changsheng that I am doing well, so don't worry about it. I won't accept these things. .” Yunniang closed the boxes one by one.

"Yunniang, you know, I didn't think about taking it back after I took it. We are a family, and you are doing well, of course we are all very happy. Besides, what Lu Yuanwai gave to you is what he gave to you. Is it the same as a grown-up? Only if you accept it, the grown-up will feel more comfortable. Otherwise, he has had a hard time these years."

"But it's too much, how can I use so much!"

"Not much, compared to adults' minds, not much at all."

Yunniang stared at those boxes, silent for a long time, then smiled at Fang Xiuyi and said: "In this case, I will accept it, and thank Changsheng for me when you go back."

"What is thank you on your behalf? If you want to thank, thank you yourself!"

"Okay, I'll go over and say it myself, are you satisfied?"

After returning to the mansion, Fang Xiuyi reported today's results to He Huai'an, and it would be best if he casually talked about the rockery in Lu's mansion.

"My lord, you should go and see it some other day. You have to build a rockery in the yard. I think they are more than two feet high. When I enter the yard, I still feel a little scary. I've been here a few times and I'm not used to it." Every time Fang Xiuyi entered that courtyard, he would feel a "thump" in his heart, and he didn't know why.

"Maybe Lu Yibei likes it. Does he have it in Ningbo's yard?"

"No. The place in Ningbo is a typical Jiangnan style, which is very pleasing to the eye."

"This may be Lu Yibei's thoughts." He Huai'an didn't come to a conclusion either.

"Maybe. But if it's just thinking about it, it's really interesting." Fang Xiuyi suddenly remembered something, "By the way, my lord, did we find any clues about the water bandits we encountered on the boat last time?"

"Don't think so much, I'm investigating. I'll tell you when I have news."

Fang Xiuyi didn't think too much about it, there was no loss or harm to her or He Huai'an, and it didn't matter if there was a definite result, but I just wanted to figure it out after experiencing it at the time.However, she looked suspiciously at He Huai'an, a second-rank official, who still can't investigate this matter clearly? !

He Huai'an didn't say anything, just sipped his tea leisurely, as if he didn't see Fang Xiuyi's eyes.
