Mrs. Yu was stunned after reading Mu Yan's letter and didn't speak for a long time.
Does he have someone he likes?
Why did the madam write such a letter to herself?
He said that he was grateful to her for keeping Mu Chun's festival, and wanted to let another daughter from the Yu family marry into the Mu family, and the two families would get married to show friendship.
When she received the letter from Mrs. Tai, she was so grateful that she specially asked someone to take her handwritten letter back to the Yu family. The family finally chose Wenying, prepared a thick dowry for her, and sent her thousands of miles away.
The distant capital.
Did it turn out that all this was a decision made by the madam without telling Mu Yan?
After thinking for a moment, Mrs. Yu understood that Mrs. Tai had used her as a pawn and held her on the fire. Now, no matter how good she is, she can neither advance nor retreat.
If you advance, you will offend Mu Yan, your heir. If you retreat, you will not only offend the wife, but you may also offend the Yu family, and you may also offend the Duke of Guizhou and the Jun family.
Mrs. Yu closed her eyes, raised her head and sighed.
She has been far away from the world of mortals, so why do people in the world of mortals refuse to let her go.
She closed her eyes, turned the beads with one hand, and struck the wooden fish with the other hand... The sound of the wooden fish did not calm the uneasiness in her heart.
A few days later, the letter from the capital was a few days later than Mu Yan's, and was delivered to the Yu family, the Jun family, and the heads of the Yu family in turn.
There are those from the Dowager Madam and there are those from Yu Wenying.
The first person to find the Yu family was the Jun family in Yunnan, who was regarded as the wife of the Duke of the country.
Mrs. Yu was dressed simply and plainly when she met Mr. Jun.
Mrs. Jun was dressed in splendor and was like a star in Yunnan. In front of Mr. Yu, she still saluted her eldest sister-in-law: "Is it okay for my eldest sister-in-law to be in the nunnery? My father-in-law and I did not take good care of her. I hope my eldest sister-in-law will forgive me."
"
"There's nothing wrong with him. Normally, the Duke would send people to greet you, send money and gifts, and take good care of him. I'm grateful."
Yu's tone was gentle, with the indifferent and distant feeling of an outsider.
Jun didn't care and just said: "The Duke and I both said that we should choose a secluded courtyard in the mansion so that my sister-in-law can do the repairs at home, which will also be convenient for us to take care of..."
"No need. Since we are practicing Qing Dynasty, we naturally have to stay away from the world of mortals. Besides, it is quiet and quiet, which is very nice."
"As long as sister-in-law feels good about it."
Seeing that Mrs. Yu didn't answer, Mrs. Jun could only think about herself and said: "Yesterday, I received a letter from Mrs. Guo, telling me and the Duke of Guo to take good care of my sister-in-law. The Duke of Guo did not dare to neglect, so he specially sent me
Come to visit. The letter also said that Wenying has adapted very well in the capital, and now he is well behaved when he goes out to socialize with her."
Yu paused while turning the beads.
Seeing this, Mrs. Jun smiled and said: "The Duke of the State often told me that I can't repay the care of the Yu family all these years. If the Yu family marries us, it will be even more intimate. The eldest sister is in the capital.
I can also get a good daughter-in-law, and someone will keep her company, so the Duke and I will feel more at ease."
Mrs. Yu said nothing.
"The Duke said that there are several juniors in the Yu family who are very good at studying and practicing martial arts. He has noticed them all. If they are willing, he can recommend them to suitable positions..."
Yu's beads spun faster again.
When Mrs. Jun saw that she didn't answer, she didn't care. As long as the Yu family still has a future, they will definitely promote this marriage.
The roots of the Yu family are in Yunnan and southwest. If you want the family to prosper, you can only choose to rely on the Duke of Guizhou. What can make the relationship closer than marriage?
The marriage between the two families will be a great help to the Duke of Guo. In the future, Zhan'er will get twice the result with half the effort if he has the financial resources of his family to help.
Even if the Yu family becomes Mu Yan's in-law family, it doesn't matter. Can the Yu family abandon their family and business and run to the capital? As long as his family stays in Yunnan, they will have to rely on Duke Guo and Zhan'er.
Mu Yan's marriage to the Yu family naturally eliminated the possibility of marrying him into a wealthy family in the capital. This certainly reduced the great resistance for Wang'er Chengjue.
Mrs. Jun told Mrs. Yu a lot, explicitly and implicitly.
All of them talked about the various benefits of the Yu family's involvement with the Mu family, and hoped that she would facilitate this marriage as Mu Yan's concubine.
After Mrs. Jun left, the next day the Yu family became the matron of the house, and Mrs. Yu's eldest sister-in-law also came to see her with several younger sisters-in-law.
Yu Wenying's mother, Yu Mishi, was so anxious that she couldn't sit still after receiving her daughter's letter asking for help, and went to Shuixin An the next day.
The family originally took a fancy to Mu Zhan and wanted to marry Wenying's sister to him, but Mrs. Naijun didn't like the Yu family and chose the daughter of a local chieftain.
There will be no chance in the future. Unexpectedly, the madam in the capital said that she would tell the eldest young master Mu Yan about her daughter.
The eldest young master is the legitimate son, and he is talented in literature and martial arts. As a mother, of course she is more optimistic about Mu Yan.
Although the title may not be inherited, the eldest young master has kept a clean life. I heard that he still has no concubines. Compared with Mu Zhan, he has several concubines. Of course, a mother hopes that her daughter will marry someone with a more outstanding personality.
of talent.
When the family members heard the news, they were all excited. They chose several women, and finally fell on Wenying.
Everyone in the family gave her a generous dowry and followed Wenying to the capital.
But if Wenying is returned...
Yu Mi didn't dare to think about it. Firstly, she was afraid that her daughter would not be able to think about it. Secondly, she was worried that her daughter would not be able to get married in the future and would be sent to a nunnery by the clan and end up like her aunt.
"Her aunt, Wenying is your biological niece, the one you have loved since childhood, and you specially designated Wenying this time. What if she doesn't end well? What if this child can't think about it again..."
Yu Mishi lowered his head and cried.
Seeing how Ms. Yu was widowed at such a young age, and now living in the nunnery year after year, accompanied by wooden fish with scriptures day after day, Ms. Yu couldn't imagine what her daughter would do if she ended up like this.
Doesn't this cost her her life?
Mrs. Yu sighed: "We were deceived by Mrs. Jun and Mrs. Jun. Recently, I received an urgent letter from Mu Yan, stating that he already has a crush on someone and will not marry Wenying. The family should make plans as soon as possible."
"Her aunt, please take pity on Wenying. She left her hometown all the way to the capital, a place she was unfamiliar with, and never thought of looking back. If she was allowed to come back, who else would want her? Not only her, but also the family
It would also be shameful."
If your clan loses face, how can you still gain a foothold in Yunnan?
"If there is such a marriage, it will be of great benefit to the family. Your surname is also Yu, and the Yu family gave birth to you. Don't you want to see the family prosper? Even though you are married and your husband is gone, you have to
You rely on your son to support you in old age, but this son is not your biological son, and it is not recorded in your name. Besides, it is still unclear whether you can return to Yunnan in the future. Who can you rely on when you are old? As long as the Yu family is prosperous, the Mu family will be
No one dares to bully you."
Yu was in a dilemma.
Although she is a married woman, she still has the blood of the Yu family in her body. Now the family needs her.
But Mu Yan also made it clear that he was interested in someone and would not marry Wenying. Do you want her to force him to marry Wenying as his heir?
Mu Yan didn't know this. He received the news, wrote a letter overnight, expressed his attitude, and had someone send him back to Yunnan immediately. This was his marriage, and without his nod, no one could make the decision for him.
Something happened in Qingzhou, and I'm about to return to Beijing.
Li Yi came in: "Master, there is an urgent message from the army!"
I have a splitting headache and it’s even later. I’ll update at noon tomorrow~
