Blessed

Chapter 95
When Jiang Jin got married, all Jiang's family naturally ate at the banquet. Even the married Yuxiang brought her husband and children back to drink the wedding wine. Yuxiang gave birth to a boy more than two years ago.

The little aunt Jiang Fangling is pregnant with her second child and is about to give birth in half a month. The Huo family is worried and won't let her go out, but the uncle Huo Feng brings his four-year-old daughter to the banquet. The little girl is pretty, with red lips and white teeth, and looks good Extremely shy, hid in Huo Feng's arms and ate quietly.

Even Qiu Erniang and Chen Yue'e also came. Yue'e was married long ago, and recruited a door-in-law, a big man, tall and burly, very quick to do things, and very good to Yue'e. But the child with his surname, has a son and a daughter, both sons and daughters, is also a blessing, the son is more than three years old, and the daughter is one year old.

Yuzhu came back from the imperial temple, and the juniors in the family have added several, even the eldest sister Yuning was diagnosed with Ximai last month.

Yuzhu was very happy today. Although the fourth brother got married, she gave a lot of red envelopes, all of them were juniors, each with a red gold necklace, a piece of jade pendant, and a small bag of golden beans, which made Mrs. Mu laugh at her as a little rich woman .

The children also happily thanked Yuzhu in a milky voice.

Until the banquet was over, Yuzhu didn't drink a drop of fruit wine, and the Mu family didn't allow her to drink it. The night fell and the banquet was over. Yuzhu personally sent Shen Mei and Shen Xian out of the Hou Mansion. Rows of red lanterns illuminate the courtyard very brightly.

Yuzhu was still instructing, "Amei, Brother Shen, it's too dark, be careful on the way back, let the driver drive slowly, don't worry."

Shen Xian was silent, Shen Mei grinned, "Yuzhu, I can save it with my eldest brother, don't worry, you are tired all day, go back and rest early, I will ask you to accompany me to the market to pick things up in a few days " She is about to get married, although the dowry has been prepared early in the morning, there are other things that need to be prepared.

"Okay." Yuzhu said, "You can just come to me when the time comes."

Shen Xian didn't say a word until they got out of the Hou's mansion. Yu Zhu watched them get into the carriage and slowly drive out of the alley, and Bai Ji said, "Girl, let's go in too, it's getting late, you should rest earlier .”

Yuzhu stared at the carriage for a while, then murmured, "It didn't burn..."

Bai Shao approached and said, "Girl, what did you say?"

"It's nothing." Yuzhu turned and entered the mansion, "I'm tired, let's rest early."

On the Shen family's carriage, Shen Xian sat upright, with his back straight and his body loose.Seeing her like this, Shen Mei asked in a low voice, "Brother, so you like Yuzhu." She was a little surprised, probably she didn't expect her elder brother to like Yuzhu, and thought that he regarded Yuzhu as a younger sister.

Shen Xian looked at her gravely, without saying a word.

Shen Mei smiled and said, "Brother, I know if you don't admit it, but I can tell you that Yuzhu has always regarded you as her elder brother. Hmph, if you want to marry Yuzhu, it may be difficult."

"You don't need to say more." Shen Xian finally opened his mouth, but unconsciously clenched his fists. He couldn't suppress his thoughts on her. No matter what A Mei said, he had to marry her even if he planned.

Shen Mei sighed, "Forget it, you can do whatever you want, I won't tell Yuzhu, you should work hard, actually I like Yuzhu very much, my eldest brother married her, Yuzhu is my sister-in-law, and my family." This is more important than the relationship between friends. Getting close, she was a little moved.

Back to Shen's mansion, it was Haishi.Shen Xian washed up and changed into the robe she usually wears and went to the study. Xiao Feng was already waiting inside. Seeing Shen Xian coming in, she said directly, "My lord, my subordinates have made a thorough investigation. Princess Jiahe saw what Master Xie called before. The name is the person whom the princess fell in love with before she married the Duke, if the princess hadn't fallen into the pond and was rescued by the Duke, the princess might have married this person."

Shen Xian sat on the couch with a golden knife, and hummed, "It shouldn't be an accident that she fell into the water back then?"

Xiao Feng nodded, "That's true. Although it's been decades, my subordinates have investigated for two months, and everything has been investigated clearly."

"Tell me one by one."

Xiao Fengdao, "The name of Zhong'an in the princess's mouth is Fu Ronghuo. The princess fell into the pond back then. Fu Ronghuo was a high school scholar at that time. He thought the princess's reputation was not good, so he went back to his hometown in Qingzhou and married a wife. His original wife was Xie, Xie. When Mrs. Xie was pregnant, Fu Ronghuo was in the Imperial Academy in the capital again until Mrs. Xie gave birth to a child, and when she was over one year old, she suddenly disappeared with the child."

"Master Xie is the child of Fu Ronghuo and Xie Shi. Mrs. Xie was not missing back then, but was hunted down and had nowhere to go. He had to leave the one-year-old child in Shao'an City. After all these years, the subordinates It has not been found out whether Mrs. Xie was alive or dead that year. And this is exactly what the princess sent someone to do."

Shen Xian's expression didn't change, and he couldn't see any joy or anger.

Xiao Feng continued, "After the princess sent people to do this back then, there was no movement after that. After so many years, I was a little frightened when I suddenly saw Mr. Xie. Back then when the princess fell into the pond, it was Fu Ronghuo who sent people What he did, he knew that his family had no roots, and if he was a son-in-law, he would at most be an idle official for the rest of his life. He was not willing to do so, so he designed the princess to fall into the pond. marry someone else."

Shen Xian asked, "Does Jiahe know about this?"

Xiao Feng said, "The princess never knew about it, she thought it was an accident..."

Shen Xian showed a sneer on his face, they really are a couple, they are both selfish and ruthless people, one is jealous of his old lover getting married and having children, and finds someone to harm other people's wives and children.The other one, in order to seek a better future, designed his sweetheart to fall into the water and destroy his innocence.

"It's a pity that the emperor is not stupid. The emperor didn't know about Fu Ronghuo's design of the princess, but because he thought the princess was innocent and refused to marry the princess, he became displeased with him. Even the emperor didn't like it. It won't have much of a future."

Indeed, as Xiao Feng said, Emperor Ruiwu didn't like Fu Ronghuo. All these years, he was just an official in Qingzhou who was as big as a sesame seed and mung bean. He was demoted to Qingzhou again.

Shen Xian said, "Okay, you go down first." After Jiahe came back, he had always placed someone beside Jiahe, paying attention to her movements, but he was just worried about what she would do to ruin the reputation of the Duke's mansion and ruin Ah With Mei's reputation, she never expected to find out such a series of things.

He didn't intend to point out these things, they are all in the past, as long as Jiahe lives in peace, he will let her live in peace.

In Jiang's residence, the next morning, Shen Yunyan was sitting in front of the makeup box in a daze, and the maid beside her wore a skirt with silver patterns embroidered with hundreds of butterflies and flowers, and a white jade hairpin with eight treasure clusters was inserted in her hair.She looked back and saw the vertical cabinet with the pattern of the eight immortals and eight treasures in the room, the multi-treasure pavilion with the carved dragon pattern in red sandalwood, the bronze mirror with the pattern of flowers and birds in cloisonné enamel, and the white stone of Qishou Changchun on the pear blossom wood stand in the corner. Bonsai, incense burner with twining branches of peonies and green leaves on the table.

As well as the red sandalwood fan inlaid with ivory flower mirror glass that separates the inner room from the outer room, all of them show the wealth and power of the Jiang family.

But she, a poor concubine, married into such a family. Until now, she was in a state of confusion and flustered, and the moment she saw the groom last night, it turned out to be him. Of course, she still remembered him.

"Fourth grandma, it's time to serve tea to my wife and master." The servant girl reminded.

"Oh, okay." Kong Yunyan got up in a hurry, and hurried out with the hem of her skirt in her hands. As soon as she stepped out of the inner room, she saw her husband sitting in front of the food table. Hearing the movement, he turned to look at her.Kong Yunyan was so ashamed that she couldn't bear it, her recklessness and inferiority could not be hidden at this moment.

Jiang Jin said gently, "Come and eat something to fill your stomach. I will serve tea to my mother and the others later. There are too many relatives in the family, so I will be busy until late and have no time to eat."

"Okay, okay." Kong Yunyan bowed his head and walked over to Jiang Jin and sat down, looking very reserved.

Jiang Jin patted her hand lightly, "Don't be too constrained, you are my wife now, just ask for anything."

Her temper was caused by the suppression for more than ten years, and it cannot be corrected in a short while. Jiang Jin plans to teach her slowly.

After eating something, the two went to the main courtyard to offer tea to the wife, because there were old ladies and grandfathers up there, the tea should be offered to the two old ancestors first, so they went to the main courtyard together.It has passed, Kong Yunyan was startled, there are too many people, the Jiang family is prosperous, and there are many juniors, she didn't know everyone's rules at first, but the Jiang family sent a nanny to teach her before getting married, now I also know a lot.

Tea was offered to the ancestors and parents, and Kong Yunyan received a lot of things, and gave gifts to the juniors.Her dowry was originally prepared by the Jiang family, so the gifts given to the juniors were actually the Jiang family's own. She was embarrassed and added some other small gifts, which were not expensive, but were embroidered by herself. It's just a network of things.

She is ingenious and dexterous, and her embroidering skills are even better. The small gifts for the girl and the girl are just purse handkerchiefs and webbing embroidered by herself, but a lot of thought has been put into each of them, and they are all different, very ingenious.

Several younger brothers in the mansion are only four or five years old, and the youngest is only half a year old. She has made a suit of clothes for them, and the embroidery is also exquisite.

Yuzhu looked at the purse and zipper in her hand, the style is very delicate, not available in the market, it can be seen that the fourth sister-in-law made it with great effort.Yuzhu has taken a liking to her. Although she is cowardly, she is grateful. In the future, she will get in touch with the fourth sister-in-law more and gradually correct her timid temperament.After all, the fourth sister-in-law is the eldest sister-in-law of the third room, and she is going to be the mistress. Such a temper will only harm herself and the Jiang family.

Yuzhu put away the purse, hung the net on her waist, and thanked the fourth sister-in-law with a smile, "Sisao, the purse and the net are very beautiful, thank you fourth sister-in-law."

Kong Yunyan remembered that the most beautiful girl was her sister-in-law Jiang Yuzhu. He had heard about her, and when he saw her amiable appearance, he blushed nervously. You embroider some handkerchiefs and shoes."

Yuzhu smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank my sister-in-law first, but my sister-in-law can't be tired. If my sister-in-law is tired, I won't feel at ease when I receive the things. So, it's fine if my sister-in-law embroiders a handkerchief for me. I don’t need anything else for the time being.” Her attitude was intimate, and Kong Yunyan’s nervousness dissipated a little, and she also said with a smile, “Okay, Yuzhu can let me choose patterns when I have time, and see what I like.”

The members of the Jiang family were very kind, and Kong Yunyan had mixed feelings after getting along with her, and secretly vowed to take good care of her husband and the Jiang family.

Although Jiang Jin got married, the third wife had to be busy. The two twins of Jiang Xun and Jiang Po were not married yet. They were both nineteen years old, but they were engaged. Mrs. Mu was busy choosing auspicious days, and finally Jiang Xun's wedding ceremony The date is set at the end of the year, and Jiang Po's is set at the beginning of spring next year.

When the Jiang family's affairs were almost busy, Xie Che went to the Yamen to ask for leave and went to Qingzhou.

Yuzhu and Jiang Jin went there together, sending people outside the city, Xie Che was very reluctant, seeing Yuzhu's bright eyes looking at her, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to gently pinch her cheek, and said softly, "Good boy, wait me back."

Yuzhu covered her face in embarrassment, "Brother Che, I'm already in my teens, don't pinch my face again."

Xie Che laughed, "Okay, our Yuzhu is a big girl now."

The three chatted and laughed, and Xie Che finally got into the carriage and left. Yuzhu clasped his hands together and murmured, "I hope brother Che is safe." The capital is also thousands of miles away from Qingzhou, and Xie Che only brought some baggage and a coachman. .

After the carriage disappeared at the end of the winding road, Jiang Jin took Yuzhu back to the Hou Mansion.

In the first few days when Xie Che left, Yuzhu was not used to it. Since she came back from the Imperial Temple, she had to be accompanied by Xie Che every day. It's no wonder she got used to him leaving.

In the past few days, she didn't see anyone, and she didn't think about food and drink in her heart, and she became thinner. Licorice always made tonic soup for her in the small kitchen these days, and Baiji Baishao always told her funny things listen.

This day, Yuzhu practiced calligraphy for half an hour, holding a book and sitting cross-legged on the couch, watching. There was a cup of chilled papaya and white fungus syrup on the small table next to her.It's the coolest thing to eat in summer, but it's too cold, and the family won't let her eat more.

Baiji came in quietly and whispered in Yuzhu's ear, "Girl, over there in the second room, the third girl is worried."

Yuzhu put down the scroll and became interested, and asked Baiji, "What are you worried about?"

Bai Ji smiled and said, "The third girl is seventeen years old, and she should be married. The second wife found several marriages for her, but she didn't like any one, so she refused to marry. What did she say that she was reluctant to part with her aunt and wanted to marry her?" Stay with my aunt for two more years."

Yuzhu couldn't help laughing, "Third sister has grown up after all, and she knows how to use a roundabout way to not force things with the second aunt." Maybe she could just make the decision and set her up a school, but she chose to talk about filial piety.
