Chapter 138 Marriage Grant (1)

It was gray.

Zi Su looked at the sky covered with dark clouds and said: "It's raining heavily on this day of great joy, it's really..." Today is the day when the second girl got married, but she didn't expect that the morning would be covered with dark clouds.

Yuxi said: "If it rains heavily, it will be better." If it rains heavily, it will stop soon and will not affect the wedding.

Before the guests finished their breakfast, it started to rain outside. The rain is not heavy, it is as deep and shallow as ink painting, and it is scattered all over the sky and earth like silver threads. The nearby scenery seems to be covered with a layer of tulle, like a fairy skirt holding the earth; the far away is hazy like in the fairy mist.

Looking at the weather like this, Yuxi thought, well, the rain will not stop for a while today. Yuxi wondered why it was raining when Yuru was married, and it was also raining when Yujing was married.

Qiu Shi never cared about Yu Jing's marriage from the beginning to the end, leaving the matter to Ye Shi, and she herself became the shopkeeper. Only today, I started entertaining guests.

At two o'clock, the groom's official came to pick up the bride. No one in the Duke's Mansion made it difficult for Young Master Song Qi, and let him pick up the bride and leave very smoothly.

After seeing off Yujing, Qiu breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally we have married off this scourge." From now on, I don't have to look at this eye-catching thing anymore.

When the people around heard this, they all lowered their heads and regarded themselves as deaf.

After the wedding, there are many follow-up things to deal with. Qiu Shi didn't care, and left these matters to Ye Shi.

The Qiu family ignored it, and it was even more impossible for Yuxi to take care of it. I have been reading books in my own yard with peace of mind.

When Yu Jing returned home in three dynasties, Yu Xi, the younger sister, also had to go to see her. Not only Yuxi, but Yuchen and Yurong also arrived at the Upper Court.

Not long after waiting, Yu Jing brought her new husband into the mansion. Yu Jing is dressed very luxuriously today, wearing bright red clothes, a complete set of gem jewelry, and a necklace around her neck. The emerald gem in the middle is the size of an egg. This kind of Yujing is really rich and powerful.

Of course, it is understandable for a married girl to dress so richly and tell her natal family that she is doing well. But Yu Jing's proud face left everyone present speechless.

Yu Xi was a little bit dumbfounded, they were girls from the Duke's Mansion, and they were not ordinary people. Although they were a little bit down now, they saw a lot of good things. The few people present, not to mention that Yuchen doesn't know how many good things he has, is that the others don't have a set of gems and jewelry in their hands. By doing this, Yu Jing really fell into the lower class. On the contrary, Seventh Young Master Song surprised Yuxi a bit. Seventh Young Master Song had an ordinary appearance, but he seemed to be an easy-going person. Yuxi murmured in her heart, this was the only lucky place for Yujing.

Yu Jing entered the living room, but she didn't see Mr. Han or Qiu Shi, her face was a bit ugly. When she returned home, her parents didn't show up, so how could she make a good face.

Mr. Han is at home today, but he is not interested in greeting the young master Song Qi, and he is too lazy to show up if he is greeted by the eldest son Han Jianming. As for the Qiu family, she hated Qiu Yanfu so much that she would not care about Yujing's face.

Even the old lady is not from the Qiu family, so she acts according to her temperament. However, she felt uncomfortable seeing Yujing's dazzling appearance. After Yujing gave gifts to everyone, she asked a few questions and then excused herself from being tired, and left the follow-up matters to Ye Shi.

Ye's family is a female family member, and she can only entertain Yujing if she wants to entertain her. Therefore, Young Master Song Qi could only be entertained by Han Jianming.

Seeing this, Yuxi also ran away immediately.

Yuchen also came out afterward, calling Yuxi to go to Tingyun Pavilion: "Fourth sister, the spring water was just brought from Lingshan Temple in the morning, and we have time to drink tea together."

Yu Xi smiled and nodded, "Okay!" Yu Chen knew very well,

She doesn't drink much tea. He also specially asked her to drink tea, that is, he wanted to chat with her. Yuxi was puzzled, why did Yuchen like to chat with her so much!

Yuchen really has something to do with Yuxi, and this matter has something to do with Yuxi: "Fourth sister, Mrs. Taining Hou has been secretly inquiring about you recently." If Taining Hou asked about Yuxi's news openly, Yuchen would not He will specifically tell Yuxi about this matter. However, Mrs. Tai Ning Hou inquired about Yu Xi's news secretly, and this kind of behavior made people feel very strange.

Yuxi let out a cry, and asked, "What is she asking about my news?"

Yuchen was also very surprised when he got the news: "Think about it, have you ever been in contact with the second master of the Chen family?" Apart from this reason, Yuchen felt that there was no other reason.

Yuxi found it incredible: "I have met the second master of the Chen family, but it was a coincidence. The first two times were just greetings, and only the third time he told me that he wanted to exchange flute playing experience with me." After finishing speaking, I talked to Yuchen about the situation of the three meetings.

Yuchen was also very surprised, and said to Yuxi: "As far as I know, not to mention unfamiliar people, even people who are very familiar with each other. Second Master Chen doesn't talk much. Even at home, he doesn't talk much." But It's not particularly strange that such a person would take the initiative to talk to Yu Xi. It's no wonder that Mrs. Taining Hou asked people to inquire about Yu Xi's news.

Yu Xi was puzzled: "Even so, Mrs. Tai Ninghou shouldn't inquire about me in private." She inquired openly, but it was nothing. Such behavior made Yu Xi feel very uncomfortable.

Yuchen said softly: "Did you know about the kidnapping of the second master of the Chen family back then?" Yuchen didn't know much about Yuxi, so Yuchen asked this question.

Yuxi nodded and said: "I heard Shiya said it, but Shiya doesn't know the specifics."

Yuchen told Yuxi about the specific process. The kidnapper who kidnapped Chen Ran was not for money, but because Marquis Taining arrested his parents. The other party asked Taining Hou to release his family, so he released Chen Ran. In the end, the Marquis of Taining planned to arrest this person, but he did not expect that he committed suicide when he was arrested, and naturally no one knew where Chen Ran was hiding.

Yuxi didn't expect that there was such a story: "How was Chen Ran rescued later?" The Marquis of Taining's approach can't be wrong, and the treatment of enemies is naturally to be eradicated. Otherwise, others may be harmed later.

Yuchen said: "It wasn't the Chen family who rescued him, he escaped by himself. As for how he escaped, I don't know. At that time, the Chen family thought he was dead. I heard that he escaped back then. When I came back, I didn’t have a piece of good meat on my body, which was horrible.”

This Yuxi heard Zhou Shiya mention it: "Shiya told me that Chen Ran didn't talk much after returning home."

Yuchen nodded and said: "Yes. Not only does he not speak, but he is very indifferent to the members of the Chen family. Even now, Chen Ran is relatively indifferent to the members of the Chen family."

Yu Xi said: "I think the situation here must be very complicated." As for the truth, only Chen Ran and the people in Taining Houfu know.

Yuchen was not interested in the truth of the kidnapping, she said: "Chen Ran is very indifferent, so he would take the initiative to talk to you, which is very strange." After finishing speaking, she glanced at Yuxi thoughtfully , thinking whether Chen Ran has taken a fancy to Yu Xi. It's not impossible, Yuxi's appearance, talent, and appearance are all good, and Chen Ran looks normal.

Yuxi was terrified by Yuchen's eyes: "Third sister, what kind of eyes do you have? Then I have seen Chen Ran three times in total, and I am not beautiful, so why did he fall in love with me? And The first time I met in the back garden of Taining Hou Mansion, Chen Ran didn't even look at me. How could he just look at me!"

Yuchen said: "Fourth sister, what if Chen Ran really likes you, what will you do?" Chen Ran is well-known in the capital for his cold temper, but he looks at Yuxi with admiration, saying that he has no intentions, Yuchen doesn't believe it of.

Yuxi looked at Yuchen with some surprise, and said: "Third sister, marriage is a major event, parents' order, matchmaker's words. If Chen Ran really likes me, then let his parents invite the official media to my house to propose marriage. However, this is Impossible. I think Chen Ran was in a bad mood at the time, and he was teasing me!" Yuxi said so on the surface, but she didn't think so in her heart. Chen Ran said that it was impossible to see her. It's not that she has low self-esteem, but that she has this self-knowledge. If Chen Ran really asked the matchmaker to come to propose marriage, he must have a plan.

Yuchen smiled, stopped continuing this topic, and talked about the tea ceremony with Yuxi instead. In fact, Yuxi didn't have a deep understanding of the tea ceremony, she just learned those things from Mr. Song that day. But Yuchen is not looking for guidance, she just wants an audience. No way, a genius will be lonely and need to vent, and Yu Xi is a good listener.

A few days later, Yuxi was reading a book in the study. Kufu shouted loudly from outside the door: "Girl, come out quickly, there is a big happy event in the mansion."

Yu Xi put down the "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" and walked out, asking: "What big happy event?" It must be a big happy event to make Ku Fu so excited.

Kufu blushed, and said happily: "Miss, the master has been promoted, two ranks in a row, and now he is the third-rank servant master."

Yuxi was a little surprised, how could such a good person be promoted two levels in a row. That day the second brother was able to advance two levels in a row, that was a great achievement. However, civil servants are no better than military officers. As long as military officers have made great contributions, they can even be promoted two ranks. But civil servants are the same, civil servants are ranked according to seniority, unless they are the kind of amazing talents, it is impossible for ordinary people to skip promotion. And Han Jingyan definitely does not belong to this kind of talent, otherwise he would not be just a fourth-rank official until now.

After thinking about it for a while, Yuxi knew why Han Jingyan was promoted two levels in a row. It's not that Han Jingyan's political achievements are outstanding, but that he has been honored by Yuchen. The emperor probably wants to give a marriage, but Han Jingyan's official position is too low, and it is not very attractive for the daughter of a fourth-rank official to be the prince and concubine. In order to look good, the emperor promoted Han Jingyan.

There is a reason for Yuxi to think so. In her previous life, Han Jingyan was also promoted before Yuchenci's marriage. But at that time, he was promoted by one level, not two levels, and his official position was not very good. I don't know why this life will be different. What Yuxi didn't know was that the Zuo servant of the Ministry of Rites was unwell and returned to his hometown, leaving a vacancy. For the sake of his son, the emperor gave Han Jingyan this grace. In the previous life, Yuchen was bestowed a marriage a year later. At that time, this vacancy had already been replaced by others, so Han Jingyan had nothing to do.

ps: I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well, and I feel very uncomfortable. Try to keep two shifts in these two days. Post the manuscript first, and revise it tomorrow. (to be continued)
