There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 785
[Chapter 785, the heart is higher than the sky]
Xinbitian Gaoping failed to ask the emperor to take back the imperial decree. No matter how reluctant Xiao Yechen and Princess Ma were, that afternoon, Xiao Yechen went to the Yuanma Temple in the suburbs of Beijing to report in desperation .
This matter was quickly known by various families in the capital, and everyone reacted surprisingly unanimously. They all agreed that the emperor disliked this nephew Xiao Yechen very much, otherwise, he would not have sent him such a nasty job.
The First Prince, Second Prince, Third Prince, and Fifth Prince who went to Tangyu Mountain yesterday found out that they had quite the same idea. They all thought that Xiao Yeyang was taking revenge on Xiao Yechen.
“Xiao Yeyang’s move is really bad enough. Let Xiao Yechen go to raise horses. Fortunately, he can figure it out.”
“I heard that the smell in Yuanma Temple is very strong. When Xiao Yechen comes back, he should You don’t smell like a horse, do you?”
“If this is the case, I dare not eat at the same table with him.”
After Wei Guogong heard about this, his brows never twitched. For Chen’s marriage, the most important thing is that Xiao Yechen has a great chance to inherit the title of the palace.
But now, he suddenly realized that he might be wrong.
Perhaps Prince Ping did not value this son as much as he imagined, otherwise, no matter what, he would not let Xiao Yechen go to Yuanma Temple.
It would be a joke to say that the prince’s son went to raise horses.
There is also the attitude of the emperor.
The emperor really didn’t show much face to Xiao Yechen!
Although Prince Ping’s wish is the main title for the royal title, if the emperor refuses to agree, there is nothing Prince Ping can do.
Yan Mansion.
In September, the Yan Mansion began to decorate with lanterns and festoons, all the courtyards were hung with red silk, and everywhere was decorated with joy.
On the sixth day of September, Yan Wentao got married.
On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Zhou Jingwan’s dowry was carried into Yan’s house.
Daohua came back on the first day of September. As soon as she came back, she was called by Mrs. Li to help. When she heard that the bride’s dowry had arrived, she immediately put down what she was doing and went to the courtyard of the third room to watch.
Looking at the dowry all over the courtyard, Yan Yile couldn’t help asking: “Didn’t it mean that the Zhou family has fallen? Why is Zhou Jingwan’s dowry still so generous?”
Yan Yihuan: “Master Tuesday was just demoted and transferred from the capital. The house has not been ransacked, so the family property is still there.”
Yan Yile curled her lips: “The elder sister-in-law’s dowry is eighty-one, Zhou Jingwan’s dowry is also eighty-one, and the fourth sister-in-law’s dowry must be similar, but our second sister-in-law , it’s only sixty-four lifts, so it’s directly outmatched.”
Hearing this, Yan Yihuan glared at Yan Yile, looked around, and said in a low voice: “Calm down, my sister-in-law is a girl from the Earl’s Mansion. The Zhou family and the Su family are both well-established families, how can the Zhu family compare?”
“Besides, the dowry of the second sister-in-law is generous enough, and the thousands of books alone are not comparable to other things. Just like that Don’t say any more. The second sister-in-law is good to you and me. There are some things that others can compare to, but you and I can’t.”
Yan Yile thought of Zhu Qiyun’s care for her, and felt that it was not good to say that just now: “Okay, second sister , I won’t be like this in the future, I just said it casually.”
Yan Yihuan eased her emotions: “You really have to keep a good watch on your mouth, otherwise, you will suffer in the future, not everyone can be like a family member I will tolerate you infinitely.”
Yan Yile didn’t like to hear these things, so she said perfunctorily: “I know, I know.” Then, he quickly changed the subject, “Second sister, when we get married in the future, how much dowry can we have? ”
Yan Yihuan paused: “How much financial resources do you think our second room has?”
Yan Yile: “Then there are uncle and aunt?”
Yan Yihuan frowned again: “Uncle and the others can only be regarded as adding makeup to us.” , the bulk of the dowry must be paid by our second wife, so don’t expect too much.”
Yan Yile pursed her lips dissatisfied, and thought for a while: “The eldest sister is going to get married in two more months. This is also the daughter of the Yan family. We won’t be much less than her, right?
” When Yan Yile said that, Yan Yihuan wanted to talk about her again, and just as she was about to speak, she saw Daohua, her eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law walking over with a smile.
“Stop talking!”
Yan Yihuan pulled Yan Yile, and then led her towards Daohua and the others.
Yan Wenjie and Zhu Qiyun came to Beijing at the end of August. First, they came to see the family that Yan Zhigao and his wife had arranged for Yan Yi, and second, they came to attend the wedding of Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai.
“Eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, eldest sister!”
Several people greeted each other, and then began to discuss Zhou Jingwan’s dowry.
Mrs. Zhou prepared a rich and complete dowry for Zhou Jingwan, including dressing mirror boxes, clothing and quilts, gold and silver utensils, and rare treasures.
Because tomorrow is the day of getting married, Han Xinran and Daohua are very busy, after watching for a while, they went to work.
Zhu Qiyun also left with Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile.
On the way, Yan Yihuan asked, “Second sister-in-law, where’s the second brother?”
Zhu Qiyun smiled and said, “The elder brother’s colleagues from the Imperial Academy have come over, and they are bringing your second brother to accompany the guests.”
Yan Yile asked immediately: “But the Xue family Young Master ?”
Zhu Qiyun: “It seems that the surname is Xue, why, do you know each other?”
Yan Yile curled her lips: “How did we know each other?”
Yan Yihuan glared at the yin and yang Yan Yile, looked at Zhu Qiyun and explained: “That Mr. Xue, it is very likely that the family selected the person for the third younger sister.”
Zhu Qiyun was surprised, and then smiled again: “Is that so, just now I took a look at it from a distance, and that Mr. Xue looks like a tree facing the wind, I feel It’s very good.”
Yan Yile: “Of course it’s not bad, although uncle doesn’t love Third Sister as much as he did when he was a child, but he still cares about her affairs very much.”
Zhu Qiyun glanced at Yan Yile, who had a sour tone, ignored her, and looked at Yan Yihuan with a smile: “How is the Xue family’s family background?” Before
Yan Yihuan could speak, Yan Yile said first: “Of course it is excellent, the Xue family His ancestral home is in Fenxi, and he is also a well-known family in the local area.”
“The Xue family has been in Beijing since the generation of Old Master Xue, and has been operating in the capital for three generations. He’s just a fourth-rank official, but Xue’s family can run the business, and he has a lot of connections in Beijing.”
“Young master Xue is even more talented, and he passed the Jinshi examination just after passing the crown, and his ranking is even higher than that of his elder brother.”
Ting Yan Yile Yan Yihuan was surprised when she spoke in such detail: “Fourth Sister, how do you know so much?”
Yan Yile: “Who is Third Sister going to marry, of course I have to find out, besides, these are not secrets.” Said, pouted.
“Although my uncle and my aunt have been saying that they regard me and my second sister as their own, but judging from the matter of finding a husband’s family for my second and third sisters, they just say it nicely, but in the end they still treat each other more favorably than others.”
“Whether it is Family background, talent and learning, the person chosen for the second sister is not as good as the third sister. The son of the Xue family is already an official, and the third sister will be the wife of the official family once she marries. But as for the young master of the You family, he is just a juror. Will he be able to win in the future? Jinshi is still unknown.”
“Fourth sister!”
Zhu Qiyun abruptly cut Yan Yile off, and looked at her with disapproval.
Yan Yile patted her chest, and complained: “Second sister-in-law, why are you so loud? It scared me a lot.”
Zhu Qiyun took a deep breath, looked at Yan Yile: “Fourth sister, you have to be grateful, You and your second sister can sit here because your uncle and aunt are raising you.”
“Also, everyone has relatives and estrangements, and your uncle and aunt are not your parents, so you have no right to ask them to treat you like you are .” My own flesh and blood are as good.”
Yan Yile’s face fell instantly, but she couldn’t find anything to refute, so she could only turn her head away with a sullen face.
Zhu Qiyun didn’t look at her again, took Yan Yihuan’s hand and asked: “Second sister, you don’t think so, do you?”
Yan Yihuan quickly shook her head: “Second sister-in-law, I don’t, I know that my uncle and aunt treat me and my fourth sister It’s good enough, I’m quite satisfied with the family they have chosen for me, and I’m not unhappy.”
Hearing this, Zhu Qiyun breathed a sigh of relief: “Second sister, you are sensible. Listen to my sister-in-law tell you, there are some things Ah, you can’t just look at the surface.”
“Marriage, in the final analysis, is all about being well-matched. The family background of the Xue family is better than that of the You family, so the Xue family’s requirements for their daughter-in-law must be stricter than those of the You family.”
“You Your father and brother are both white, even if the eldest aunt finds you a rich family to marry, it looks good on the outside, but you don’t have enough confidence, and you will suffer countless hardships on the inside.”
Yan Yile snorted: “But we are also daughters of the Yan family.”
Zhu Qiyun: “Yes, you are indeed daughters of the Yan family, but whether you come from the first wife or the second wife, in the eyes of outsiders, the value is different.
” Her father and brother are both officials in the court, and her sister is about to marry into the palace. In the eyes of outsiders, although we are a family, we are separated by a layer after all.”
Saying that, she looked at Yan Yihuan.
“Second sister, young master of the You family, I have met your second brother, she is really nice, and her family background is also very good for our second room.”
Yan Yi smiled and looked at Zhu Qiyun: “Second sister-in-law, I know I am really satisfied with this marriage of You’s family. If my husband’s family background is too good in the future, I will really be afraid.”
Hearing what Yan Yihuan said, Zhu Qiyun smiled “If you think so, then my sister-in-law can rest assured.”
Yan Yile who was on the side listened, curled her lips in disdain.
As the second sister, she is still too honest. If others give her a little favor, she will be grateful and have no backbone at all.
Zhu Qiyun noticed Yan Yile’s expression and felt a little headache. She thought to herself, I have to find a chance to talk to my husband about this younger sister tonight, and see if I can find a way to turn her temper back, and don’t really fall into that kind of heart A person who is taller than the sky and whose fate is thinner than paper.
Daohua didn’t know anything about the second room sister-in-law’s affairs, so she went to bed early after a busy day.
On the sixth day of September, early in the morning, the Yan Mansion became lively.
Daohua also washed up early, waiting for her third brother to welcome the bride into the door.
