There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 145
[Chapter 145, Yang Family]
the boat of the Yang family and the Zhou family took the Grand Canal, and the journey was relatively fast. In less than ten days, the Yan family’s annual ceremony entered the capital.
Yang Mansion.
Mrs. Yang had just returned from a banquet with her family members, and was gathering in the room to talk.
As the end of the year approached, there were more banquets in each family. Although the grandpa of the family was only a fourth-rank official, he received a lot of posts.
“Grandmother, Miss Yuan’s outfit is really pretty, and she wants one too.”
“Grandmother, I want one too.”
The daughters of the first, second, and third members of the Yang family are sitting around the old lady. Acting like a baby to please and be good, and by the way, gain some benefits for yourself.
The first lady of the Yang family, the second lady, and the third lady just watched with a smile on their face, and didn’t stop them.
Mrs. Yang didn’t really want to agree, but she was always very strong, thinking that the costumes and jewelry of the ladies at the banquet were much better than her own. In addition, the granddaughters were cute and cute, so she agreed as soon as she gritted her teeth.
“Okay, grandma will buy it for you, one set for each of you.”
Below, the fourth wife, Yan Siyu, saw that the old lady didn’t mention her daughter Xiuyun, and felt sad in her heart.
She is a daughter-in-law and should not be treated by her mother-in-law. She understands, but her daughter is also the granddaughter of the old lady. Why is the old lady so partial?
“Mother!”
Yang Xiuyun sensed that her mother was in a bad mood, and immediately reached out to shake her hand.
She has long been used to her grandmother’s partiality and disregard over the years, and she would be surprised if her grandmother suddenly treats her well one day.
Yan Siyu smiled bitterly, and shook her daughter’s hand back.
It’s all because she is a bad mother. If she can be tougher, she won’t let her daughter suffer with her.
Fortunately, her son Hongrui is a good student, and his uncle valued her, otherwise, she would really have no place to stand in the Yang family.
“Old lady!”
Suddenly, the woman in charge next to Mrs. Yang came in, glanced at the fourth lady, then walked quickly to the old lady, and whispered something in her ear.
After hearing what her mother-in-law said, Mrs. Yang raised her eyes to look at her youngest daughter-in-law, with a little surprise on her face: “Fourth daughter-in-law, is your Yan family related to the Zhou family?”
Yan Siyu didn’t expect her mother-in-law to ask herself, and was stunned. Take a moment: “Zhou’s family? Which Zhou’s family?”
Old lady Yang: “The Zhou’s family, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.”
As soon as these words came out, not only Yan Siyu was shocked, but also the three wives of the Yang family were also stunned.
The Zhou family, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is one of the most powerful families in the capital, and is highly regarded by the emperor.
The highest rank in the Yang family is a fourth-rank official, so if you want to make friends with the Zhou family, you don’t even have a chance.
Mrs. Yang: “Mother, are you right? How could the family of the fourth sibling know the Zhou family?
” The mother-in- law confirmed: “Are you sure it’s the Zhou family?” The steward mother -in-law
nodded: “Sure, the old slave has asked several times, it is the former chief assistant Zhou’s family.”
It is true that he was an official in Zhongzhou Province, Zhou Shoufu’s hometown. Could it be that the Yan family’s fortune has changed and he has climbed into the Zhou family?
The shock returned to the shock, and Mrs. Yang recovered quickly, and looked at her youngest daughter-in-law: “Fourth daughter-in-law, the Yan family’s New Year ceremony is here.”
Yan Siyu stood up happily.
Normally, if the youngest daughter-in-law is not calm like this, Mrs. Yang would definitely scold her, but this time, she didn’t say anything: “It is said that they came on board the Zhou family’s boat, and the Yan family is also here this time. Man, go and meet.”
“Yes!”
Yan Siyu was a little excited, she didn’t expect that this time her natal family would send someone over, saluted the old lady, and hurriedly pulled her daughter away.
Seeing the impatient look, both the second and third wives sneered.
“It’s just a little New Year’s gift. Look, the younger siblings are happy.”
“Second sister-in-law, the fourth younger brother and sister don’t have much dowry, so naturally they value the New Year’s gift.”
Mrs. Yang glanced at the two of them, but did not speak.
Backyard hanging flower gate.
Mrs. Fang, who was sent by Mrs. Li to give the New Year’s gift, was pulling the servants of the Yang family to inquire about Yan Siyu’s situation in the Yang family.
Knowing that there are several concubines in my uncle Yang Boyi’s house, and that several sons have been born, Mrs. Fang was very angry.
At this time, Yan Siyu brought Yang Xiuyun over.
“My maidservant please greet the Fourth Miss, and the Fourth Miss is well!” Mrs.
Fang immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
“Get up quickly.” Yan Siyu hurried forward, helped Mrs. Fang up herself, and then looked at Mrs. Fang, “Are you… Mama Sun’s daughter-in-law, Sister Fang?
” Siyu sold herself to Yan’s family when she was very young, and their son got married, but she was not married yet, so she met Fang.
“It’s me, Miss Si!” Fang’s face was also excited, since the Yang family moved to the capital, they hadn’t seen Yan Siyu for six or seven years.
Thinking of relatives in the distance, Yan Siyu’s expression choked up: “Is the family okay, how is the mother?”
Fang immediately smiled and said: “It’s okay, last year the master took the old lady to take care of her, the family is here Together, the old lady is not unhappy.”
“This year, the master was promoted to the magistrate of Xingzhou again, and the uncle, third master, and fourth master went to Wangyue Academy to study again, and the old lady felt even happier.”
“Nowadays, I’m with the big girl every day, raising flowers, playing boxing, and living in Zhuangzi for a few days when I have nothing to do. Don’t mention how beautiful the little life is.”
“It’s just that the old lady misses the girl in her heart, and always Said, if the girl is here, the whole family will be reunited.”
Yan Siyu was startled by the message from Mrs. Fang, and after a while, she asked excitedly, “What did you say? Eldest brother has been promoted to magistrate ”
Seeing Yan Siyu like this, Mrs. Fang was stunned: “Don’t you know the fourth girl? The letter to announce the good news to you was written by the madam in front of the old lady. Didn’t you receive it?”
Hearing this, Yan Siyu couldn’t help crying.
Yang Xiuyun didn’t understand why mother would cry when she was so happy, but she stepped forward to comfort her immediately: “Mother, many people are watching, if you let grandma know about you like this, she won’t know how sad she will be.”
Yan Siyu sobbed a few times , wiped away the tears on her face, and looked at Lady Fang embarrassedly: “My sister laughed, I’m just so happy.”
Seeing her like this, Lady Fang just felt uncomfortable.
Although Madam guessed that the life of the fourth girl in the Yang family would be difficult, she did not expect it to be so difficult, and she could not even receive a letter from home.
Mrs. Fang forced a smile: “Miss Si, this time because it is cheap to take the Zhou family’s boat, the old lady let me bring a lot of things.”
“There are all kinds of vegetables she grew herself, potted plants, The brewed fruit wine, anyway, she thought it was good, so she brought you a copy, and said she would let you taste it.”
Hearing this, Yan Siyu couldn’t help but shed tears again.
Yang Xiuyun hurriedly comforted her.
“This is Miss Biao, right?” Mrs. Fang looked at Yang Xiuyun with a smile, “This looks like the fourth girl, and she is really beautiful.”
Yan Siyu wiped her tears and said: “Sister Fang , stop praising this girl, and pay attention to her.” The tail is up.”
Seeing that there are more and more people around, Yang Xiuyun said with a smile: “Mother, let’s go back to the house and talk about it.”
Yan Siyu nodded repeatedly.
In the past, when her mother’s family gave New Year’s gifts, there were no visitors, only family letters. This time, there were people from home, and she also had a lot of questions in her heart.
Mrs. Fang had no choice but to walk two and a half steps behind her mother and daughter, and said as she walked: “This time, besides the old lady, the eldest girl also has something to give to the young master and Miss Biao.”
Yan Siyu paused and said: “You You are talking about the elder brother’s eldest daughter, right?”
Mrs. Fang nodded, “That’s right, Miss Si, you are not at home often, I don’t know that our eldest girl is really a pistachio, the old lady is accompanied by her I am happy every day.”
Yang Xiuyun listened silently, listening to the daily life of her grandmother and cousin, her face could not help showing a trace of envy and yearning.
How nice it would be if her grandmother was like this too?
