Chapter 927 Assassination of Fu Minglang
There are a lot of porcelain on the table, including vases, tea cups and so on. These porcelains are as white as jade, with fine fetal bones, crystal clear and bright glaze, and various patterns are carved on them.
Zao Zao picked up a bottle and said with a smile: "Mother, the glaze of this bottle is as white as jade, so beautiful."
"Just as long as you like it." Yuxi smiled and said, "I was afraid that you wouldn't like it!"
"Mother, are these porcelains for me?" Seeing Yuxi nodding her head, Zaozao was very surprised, and after putting the bottle back in place, she asked, "Mother, what are you going to do with these porcelains for me? Although these things are very beautiful, But I can't use it either!"
Liu'er pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Eldest sister, these are the dowries that mother prepared for you."
Zao Zao said to Yu Xi: "Mother, I will take these porcelains if you give them to me, but don't make jewelry or rouge or anything."
Yuxi smiled and said, "Aren't you talking stupid? Which girl doesn't have any jewelry in her dowry?" Everything from the bed to the needle and thread has to be prepared.
Zao Zao hurriedly said: "Mother, I don't wear jewelry, it's a waste of money for you to get these." All the jewelry that Yuxi gave her were put in the box, and she never wore them once.
Yuxi smiled and said: "What a silly girl. It doesn't matter if you don't wear it, but mother can't help but prepare it for you." Yuxi never treats one favorably than another, and Liuer has what she has. Even though Zao Zao has never worn those jewelry since she was a child, every time she buys jewelry for Liu Er, she will not lose her piece.
Zao Zao still said the same sentence: "The family's money is already tight, why waste money on these useless things!"
Yuxi laughed and said: "No matter how difficult the family is, you can't lack your dowry." Many girls hope that the more dowry they have, the better, so that they can quickly gain a foothold in their husband's family. Jujube is good, but there is no dowry. This kid is really stupid. However, her heart was warm.
Seeing this, Zao Zao knew that Yu Xi would not change her mind, and immediately said: "Mother, I remember that there seem to be a lot of gems in the warehouse, let's just pick some from it!"
Yu Xi nodded with a smile and said: "In addition to gems, there are a lot of jade and beads in the warehouse, you can pick them yourself!" Her private house is very rich, in addition to all kinds of jewelry, there are also many priceless antique calligraphy and paintings, etc. things. But Zao Zao didn't study these things, so she decided on it directly.
"Mother, you can just pick something." Zao Zao is not interested in jewelry, it doesn't matter if she has it or not, and she is not willing to waste time doing it.
Yuxi shook her head helplessly.
Liu'er knew that Yuxi was very busy recently, she didn't want Yuxi to be too tired, so she took the initiative to say: "Mother, why don't you let me help Elder Sister choose!"
Zao Zao thought this idea was very good, and said: "Mother, let Liu Er pick it!" After speaking, she smiled at Liu Er and said, "Liu Er, by the way, I will also pick your share." It's time for Ji, and it's time to talk about marriage after Ji Ji.
Liu'er didn't have such a thick face as Zao Zao, she blushed immediately: "Sister, what are you talking about! I'm kind enough to help, but you still come to make fun of me?"
Zao Zao didn't feel that she said the wrong thing: "It's only natural for a man to marry a woman. Besides, you will reach the age of Ji next year, and after that, Mother will definitely choose a husband and son-in-law for you. Mother, you say so!"
Yu Xi smiled, looked at Liu'er and said: "Your eldest sister is right, let's pick your share too!"
Liu'er stomped her feet and said, "I don't care about you." After speaking, she turned and left.
Zao Zao looked at Liu'er's back and laughed, "There's nothing so shy about that." If she was like Liu'er, how could she be engaged to Jin Yu smoothly!
Yu Xi could see what Zao Zao was thinking at a glance: "You think all the girls in the world are just like you! The other party disagreed and even ran to the other party's house to question, and replaced it with other people who either sent them to the family temple or married casually."
Zaozao hugged Yuxi's arm and said with a smile: "How can parents be willing?" Zaozao acted so recklessly,
It was also used by Yunqing and Yuxi.
"Let me tell you, your father is very upset about this matter, please restrain yourself and don't do anything to make him angry." Seeing Zao Zao's indifferent expression, Yuxi smiled lightly: "It's okay to provoke your father. He won't beat and scold you, but don't forget that there is Jin Yu!" If Zao Zao is rebellious and disobedient, Yun Qing will blame Jin Yu for the fault.
Although Yuxi was a little annoyed by Zaozao's behavior, she was not angry. She worked so hard because she wanted to create better conditions for her children so that they could live comfortably.
Zao Zao hurriedly said: "Mother, don't worry, I will listen to my father and not make him angry." Jin Yu is most afraid of her father, her legs tremble when she sees her father. If he was punished by his father again, he might not dare to come to the palace in the future.
This day, Yuxi finished dealing with the stone and was going back to the backyard. Walking out of the study, she saw that the blue bricks outside were wet, Yu Xi asked, "When did it rain?"
Meilan handed the cloak to Yuxi, and then said: "Half an hour, it has been more than a quarter of an hour." Because the rain was not heavy, it stopped just after wetting the ground, Yuxi didn't know it was normal to concentrate on reviewing the memorial .
While putting on her cloak, Yu Xi asked: "Has the lord come back?" Yun Qing went to the army yesterday, and has not come back yet.
Mei Lan shook her head.
Halfway through, it began to rain again. The thin rain was blown around by the wind, and fell on the face cold.
"Princess, I'll get an umbrella." Seeing Yu Xi shaking her head, Mei Lan blamed herself very much, she should have an umbrella on this kind of day, so that Yu Xi wouldn't have to get wet in the rain.
Yuxi laughed when she saw this: "What is this little rain?" She was not so delicate, and she fell ill after being exposed to a little rain.
When she returned to the main courtyard, Aunt Quan saw that Yuxi's hair was wet, so she hurriedly fetched a towel for her.
Yuxi took the towel and said with a smile: "Mommy, let the maids do these things, don't take their jobs."
Sister Quan said dissatisfiedly: "I will leave everything to them, how can I rest assured?" After speaking, she took a special look at Meilan. If it was her, she would definitely not let Yuxi get wet in the rain, Meilan is not careful enough.
Seeing Meilan lower her head, Yuxi smiled and said, "I didn't let her bring an umbrella, but it's only a few steps away." It was mainly raining, otherwise she would have waited at the same place.
Sister Quan said: "Don't take advantage of your youth to not cherish your body. If you don't pay attention now and you get sick when you get old, it will be too late to regret." Word.
Yu Xi hurriedly apologized with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Mammy, I will definitely pay attention next time." As she grew older, Mammy Quan liked to nagging more and more. Sometimes one thing can be nagged for a long time, but Yuxi is busy, so the maids in the main courtyard suffer.
Sister Quan said dissatisfiedly: "Don't just say yes, you have to do it." Yu Xi is very fond of her body now. One must know that Yu Xi hadn't been very sick during the years she was in the Duke's Mansion. Unlike now, when the seasons change, I will catch cold accidentally.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Mommy, if I didn't do it, wouldn't I still have you?" Aunt Quan saw her watching her closely, and she always chanted a few words when she was late on weekdays.
Sister Quan said: "I see what's the use, you have to pay attention to it yourself." In fact, Sister Quan also knew that she was nagging a little bit, but fortunately, Yu Xi never showed any impatience.
Just as he was talking, he heard loud footsteps outside. Yu Xi said with a smile: "The lord is back." Yun Qing came back from the outside and never had to report. Yu Xi could hear the footsteps only.
Yunqing opened the curtain of peony flowers tied with colorful threads and walked into the room. Seeing Yuxi's hair loose, he asked, "Why do you wash your hair so late?" According to Yuxi, washing your hair at night is not easy to dry, and said She always suffers from headaches when she gets old, so she always washes her hair after taking a nap.
Sister Quan finally found her bosom friend: "My lord, please tell me about the princess. She came back from the front yard without holding an umbrella when it rained outside, and she got drenched all over."
Yun Qing looked at Yu Xi with a bitter face, and held back a smile and said: "I will talk about her well, it's getting late now, mother, let's go down and eat!" If you want to say who Yu Xi is most afraid of now, except There is no second person for Mammy Quan. But every time Aunt Quan said that it was because Yu Xi hadn't done a good job, Yu Xi couldn't refute.
Sister Quan was still in awe of Yun Qing: "Okay, then the old slave will go down." No matter how much Yuxi respected her, Sister Quan would not eat at the table. Sister Quan would never do such a passover.
Only the husband and wife were left in the room, Yun Qing smiled and said, "Why are you so careless?"
Yuxi said helplessly: "It's only a few steps away, and it doesn't rain too much, so Mammy just loves to talk."
Yun Qing laughed and said: "I know that Nanny Quan will talk about you, why don't you pay more attention?" Everyone has a different idea, in the eyes of Nanny Quan, it's wrong for Yuxi to wet her hair without holding an umbrella, but Yun Qing thinks it's nothing . Because if it were him, he wouldn't even hold an umbrella in such a little rain.
Yuxi shook her head with a smile, and then said: "Today, Fujian sent a box of porcelain over there. These porcelains are very exquisite, and I plan to give them as a dowry to Zaozao." Exquisite porcelain is not something you just want , depends on luck.
Naturally, Yun Qing would not have any objections: "You can handle these things as you see fit." He didn't know anything about dowry, so he left it to Yu Xi to deal with it.
"That girl Zaozao said she didn't want a dowry again today, you silly girl." Thinking of Zaozao's words, Yu Xi couldn't help laughing.
Yun Qing's words about Zao Zao are very useful: "Zao Zao also loves us." Although Zao Zao has some things that make him very dissatisfied, he does not deny that Zao Zao is very filial.
Speaking of Fujian, Yunqing thought of Jiang Hongfu: "Yuxi, I want to transfer Ah Fu back to Haocheng." Seeing that Yuxi didn't answer, Yunqing said with some melancholy: "Yuxi, I just have to express myself. Brother is a relative."
Yu Xi didn't like to hear these words, so she hummed and said, "What do you mean that Jiang Hongfu is the only family member left for you? Could it be that I and the children are not human?"
Yun Qing hugged Yuxi in his arms and said, "What kind of silly words are you talking about? You and a few children are my fate. How can Ah Fu be compared to you."
Yuxi's face looked better now: "I'll transfer him back when there's a suitable position." If it wasn't for Jiang Hongfu, the Jiang family would have ceased to exist long ago. She deliberately transferred Jiang Hongfu to Fujian that day not only for observation, but also for experience.
Yun Qing nodded: "Speaking of which, Yijun is also seventeen years old. I haven't seen him for so many years, so I don't know if he has changed?" Jiang Yijun is the eldest son of Jiang Hongfu and has always been in Jiangnan. I saw it once.
Yuxi has a deep impression on Jiang Yijun, because Jiang Yijun was Jie Yuan from Suzhou in the township test last year: "He will take part in the general test next year, and you can meet him next year." Jiang's family has a house here in Haocheng , Jiang Yijun will definitely come early.
Hearing this, Yun Qing frowned: "Yijun's health is not good, how can he take the exam?" There will be three exams, each of which will take three days. I can't come out for these three days, and I have to stay in the Gongyuan for food and lodging. Ordinary people can't bear it, how can Jiang Hongfu's body bear it.
Yuxi laughed lightly: "I heard that it has been recuperated, almost like a normal person." Min's health is very poor, and she had one child before giving birth to Jiang Yijun. After being pregnant with him, there will be seven disasters and eight disasters. Even if the Min family is careful, Jiang Yijun will still give birth prematurely. Congenitally deficient, Jiang Yijun's health can't be good.
It's strange to say, but after giving birth to Jiang Yijun, Min's health gradually improved. Although it is worse than ordinary people, it is no longer as easy to get sick as before.
Congenitally deficient, no matter how well adjusted it is, it can't compare to ordinary people. Thinking of this, Yun Qing hurriedly said: "Yuxi, when choosing a wife for Brother Hao and the others, you must choose a wife who is in good health, not a sick one." The daughter-in-law who is married is not in good health, and her grandchildren are likely to be implicated. Like Yuxi, who is in good health, the children are also in good health.
"It's up to you to say." Good health is the most basic, otherwise it would not be considered at all: "Jiang Hongfu married the Min family because of the situation. If he didn't marry the Min family, who would know that the Yu family would choose him? What daughter-in-law?" Apart from Min's poor health, De Rong's speech skills are not bad, and he is also very talented.
Yun Qing just expressed his feelings: "Liu'er will marry Ji next year, and when she does, let's finalize her marriage with Wei Qi!"
Yuxi smiled and said: "I will discuss this matter with Liu Er when I find a suitable time. If Liu Er agrees, I have no objection. But if Liu Er is unwilling, you can tell Cui Mo yourself when the time comes." She hoped that Liu Er would be like Zao Zao, able to marry someone she likes and the other party also likes her.
Yun Qing naturally understood Yu Xi's implication, and said: "That kid Wei Qi is pretty good, Liu'er will definitely be willing." The main reason is that Cui Wei Qi knows the basics, so he can rest assured. Zao Zao is very strong physically and mentally, no matter how hard he is, he doesn't worry about it, but Liu'er is different. Liu'er is relatively weak, and she was brought up pampered, so she can't stand any harm.
Yuxi shook her head helplessly, and said: "Everyone has their own love for vegetables and radishes, but Liu'er doesn't necessarily like the good ones you think." She worked so hard to make her children live well. Therefore, the wishes of the child come first.
Yun Qing is still very confident: "Didn't you say before that Liu'er wanted to find someone who would be devoted to her wholeheartedly? Wei Qi fully met her requirements."
Yuxi was not arguing with Yunqing, because she knew that if Liu'er was unwilling, Yunqing would not force Liu'er: "The food should be ready, let's go out!"
As soon as the words were finished, Meilan raised her voice and said, "My lord, my concubine, Fu Shangshu was stabbed and now his life or death is uncertain."
When the husband and wife heard this, their faces were very ugly. (to be continued)
