A funeral.
However, Wu Baolin and his uncle had a fierce quarrel over the money they got back. Hongguang's family had no selfish motives and did not covet the money. They also helped fight for their daughter.
Later, Li Lu was taken advantage of by Wu Baolin... It is not surprising that people like him who took advantage of the situation would do other wrong things. In the end, Li Lu not only returned the money he received from the Jia family in full, but also
All the benefits I received from Wu Pengsheng at the beginning were returned. I will not dare to appear in front of Wu Baolin again in the future.
The Zhao brothers made a lot of money relying on Zhao Qiaoxin, and they were no longer the country people they once were. Thanks to the benefits, they never dared to embarrass Chu Yunli, and gave generous gifts during every year and festival. Zhao Mingkang was very supportive at first.
He was stubborn and unwilling to bow his head. Later, when he saw that his two younger brothers were getting better and better, he couldn't help it anymore and wanted to come to beg his sister.
But Zhao Mingle knew how much his sister hated his elder brother, so he hurriedly stopped him. The two brothers together gave him a lot of benefits, but they were afraid that he would get in front of his sister and completely piss him off.
Chu Yunli's first feeling was pain. Her knees and thighs were sore and numb, and she was so painful that she wished she could cut them off. She opened her eyes and found herself kneeling, with a brightly lit courtyard in front of her in darkness.
Zhongya could also see the flowers and plants scattered at random, the pavilions and pavilions, this house was quite wealthy. The second feeling was cold, she shivered, and out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of a little maid kneeling next to her, her face was filled with tears, her eyes were filled with tears.
worry.
"Girl, it's no use, let's go back."
The maid said and came forward to help.
"You are so weak and you have caught the cold. You have been kneeling all day and night and you can't stand it anymore. Go back with me."
In the darkness not far away, the disdainful voice of the mother-in-law came, with a bit of a sinister tone: "The little girl is right, Miss Yu, you and Mr. Lu have already asked about their names. Although they haven't married yet, they even have a marriage certificate. You two
They are two serious unmarried couples, and they only need to get married. This marriage was decided by Madam, Master and the Lu family more than ten years ago, and there is absolutely no possibility of changing it. Why should Miss Jade be persistent?"
The richer the family, the higher their requirements for a girl's reputation. If it is true as the mother-in-law said, then there is really no need to be more expensive. Unless the original person does not care, and is not afraid of ruining her reputation.
But if you weren't afraid, you would have moved on long ago. Why kneel here and beg your elders to change their minds?
Chu Yunli's mind was a little dazed at the moment. With her willpower, she was far from fainting, but if it were placed on a weak person, such pain would be enough to make people unable to sleep.
She didn't want to kneel here, so she simply fell to the ground. The next moment, the little maid's exclamation came to her ears: "Girl!"
Then, the little maid looked serious and said, "Aunt He, why don't you come over and help me? If my girls are in trouble, I'm afraid only the eldest girl can go to the Lu family's sedan chair!"
"The little girl is quite good at putting on a show. No matter how weak your girl is, she won't just die like this. As long as she doesn't die, she has to get on the sedan chair!" Having said that, the people still came over to help the maid lift up Chu Yun.
pear.
Chu Yunli leaned against the two of them and vaguely heard Aunt He muttering: "Why are you so thin?"
After walking for a while, Chu Yunli was put on the bed and covered with a quilt. The maid went out to pick up the doctor. She quietly opened her eyes and took a look.
This house is completely different from the splendor of the yard just now. Not to mention it is deserted, the quilt is thin, and except for the necessary furniture, there are no other furnishings in the house.
Her original name was Deng Ruyu, her father was Ding Guo Gong, but unfortunately she was a concubine. Even so, the status of Ding Guo Gong's daughter was quite acceptable in this capital. She could not be a concubine in a distinguished family.
A decent lady who marries a low-level official with a weak foundation may be able to get a low-level imperial title.
Deng Ruyu’s biological mother, Sun, was the maid of the Duke’s wife. When she sold herself, her family
She has an older brother. She had no choice but to sell herself into slavery because her father was seriously ill and had no money to treat her. Her older brother was very grateful to her. She had never stopped contact with her parents' family. Knowing that her daughter was left in the Duke's mansion, she didn't know where she would be arranged.
In such a family, she was really afraid that her daughter would be married by the Duke's wife to someone who looked glamorous but was really rotten. While she was still favored, she begged the Duke, who was still the prince, to allow her daughter to return to her parents' family.
The Sun family used to be just an ordinary farmer, but after the Sun family was promoted as the maid of the prince, they often gave away things. Therefore, when the marriage was decided, cousin Deng Ruyu had already won the scholarship at the age of sixteen. If not for this, the Sun family
No matter how favored you are, the Duke will not let go.
Deng Ruyu and her cousin Sun Huayao have known each other since childhood. Although they have not been close to each other, her cousin has always been very polite to her. After they became an unmarried couple, they often asked someone to bring fresh gadgets into the house.
Sun Huayao was very ambitious. He won the imperial examination at the age of nineteen and was chosen as a disciple by the headmaster of Fengmin Academy in the suburbs. Because his master privately revealed that he had talent, he planned to wait until he passed the imperial examination before marrying Deng Ruyu.
There are many scholars inside and outside the capital, but only a few of them can be accepted as disciples by the Academy Headmaster. Sun Huayao sees a bright future and has a heart for Deng Ruyu, so she has some visions for the future. But the Duke of Guo did not like this at first
The son-in-law, seeing his potential, valued him more and more and often asked him to come to his house.
However, everything is afraid of changes!
When Deng Ruyu was seventeen years old and was waiting for her fiancé to welcome her into the high school, Sun Huayao was gearing up to take the national examination and wanted to win his fiancée in one fell swoop before welcoming her into the house to celebrate the New Year. Someone from the Duke's Mansion came to the door and asked them to
Fulfill the engagement made many years ago.
When the Duke of Guo was young, because of his good background, he made good friends with many noble disciples in the capital, and a group of them went around doing chivalry and righteousness. When the relationship was at its best, he even became opposite-sex brothers with two of them. Among them was Mr. Lu from the General's Mansion.
It was his second brother. After drinking, the two of them even joked that they wanted to get married.
People who are drunk act impulsively, so the marriage was decided on the spot. The young master of the Lu family was a man of temperament. After he sobered up, he sent a token to the door and signed a marriage certificate.
The Duke agreed and it was hard to go back on it. In addition to the deep brotherly love between the two, he accepted the marriage certificate with a smile on the spot.
Unfortunately, within a few years, General Lu died in battle, and the general's mansion was taken back. Master Lu helped his spirit return to his hometown, but he fell seriously ill on the way and died shortly after returning home. Mrs. Lu took her young son to observe her filial piety.
After that, he never returned to the capital. As time went by, Duke Dingguo even forgot about it.
Just because something has been forgotten does not mean that it has never happened. The marriage certificate is in front of him. After all, the Duke of Guo did not regret it. Firstly, he remembered the original brotherhood. Secondly, he was also afraid that outsiders would say that the Duke's government was snobbish. Thirdly, he got it.
Of the three daughters, only the second daughter, Deng Ruyu, has decided to get married. This marriage is not difficult for him.
After receiving the marriage certificate, I turned around and inquired, only to find out that the Lu family was not only in ruins, but also that Mr. Lu had been lingering on the bed all year round, and recently he had fallen into a coma. This person was not here to get married, it was clearly to celebrate the occasion!
Furthermore, although the eldest daughter Deng Jiahua has not yet decided to get married, she already has the person she likes. She and the sixth prince are in love and are just waiting for the marriage from the palace. Naturally, the Duke's wife does not want this daughter who is about to become the prince's concubine.
The third girl, Deng Ruyue, had been raised by the Duke's wife since she was a child. Although she was not her biological child, she was still favored, but the Duke's wife still couldn't bear to part with her. After discussing it, she actually set her sights on Deng Ruyu and asked her to marry her.
Lu family.
When Deng Ruyu got the news, it was like a bolt from the blue. The Sun family was also shocked by the news. After realizing it, she hurriedly begged for mercy. Although the news that a daughter of the Duke of Guo was about to marry the disciple of the Academy Mountain Chief did not spread widely, people familiar with the matter did not.
Young Master... If we break off the engagement, the reputation of the girl from the Duke's Mansion will also be discussed.
The Duke's wife thought the same thing, and feeling embarrassed, Deng Ruyue took the initiative to express her willingness to marry into the Sun family. In this way, the Duke's residence would not be discussed, and the three daughters all had a home to live in. The matter was happily settled.
So, not only did Deng Ruyu want to marry to the sick man, but her fiancé was also snatched away by her third sister, whom she had not dealt with since childhood. She could not accept this result. So she ran to the main courtyard and knelt down to plead for mercy. She knelt for two days.
Day and night, until she fainted, she could not change her mind.
The cry of the maid could be heard in her ears. Chu Yunli felt it was very noisy and opened her eyes.
When the maid saw her awake in July, she hurriedly wiped away her tears and said, "Girl, drink the medicine quickly. The doctor said that you can't be depressed anymore, otherwise... you will be in danger of your life."
Chu Yunli sat up, took the medicine bowl and drank it in one gulp.
Qi Qiu saw this in her eyes and was feeling relieved when the door was suddenly pushed open. A slender woman in a bright red cloak walked slowly in. After seeing Chu Yunli on the bed, she smiled and untied her cloak and sat in front of the bed:
"Second sister, you woke up so quickly, are you pretending to be faint?"
Deng Ruyu, a daughter-in-law, suffered such an accident. She was already in poor health and had fainted several times before. Deng Ruyue's words were simply heartbreaking!
Qi Qi was originally going to take out the medicine bowl, and she didn't want to leave now, but her master didn't want one of her servants to interrupt... It wasn't that she was afraid of Deng Ruyue, but that after her master's fiancé changed,
All the servants in this courtyard have been evacuated. If something happens to her again, the master may die of illness in bed and no one will know.
"You pretend to be a fake and let me see?" Chu Yunli pulled the quilt and said, "You can also let me, sister, learn how to be dizzy in a real way."
"You..." Deng Ruyue was furious, but she quickly controlled it and did not have an attack. She smiled and said: "Second sister, I know you are worried about Sun Juren. Don't worry, he is my fiancé and will be my husband from now on.
I will take good care of him. Speaking of which, you will have to call me your cousin in the future."
Chu Yunli looked sideways at her.
Seeing that she didn't lose her temper or shed tears, Deng Ruyue frowned: "What are you watching me do?"
Chu Yunli smiled: "Don't say it too early. I have been his fiancée for six years and she always changes. If you want to become a couple, it will only count if we succeed."
Deng Ruyue's voice was sharp: "Does he still dare to refuse marriage?"
She looked complacent: "The daughter of the Duke of Guo is willing to marry. That's because there is smoke rising from the graves of his ancestors. As long as he is not stupid, he should continue this marriage well, flatter me well, and put me in a good mood."
, I will ask my father to give him a bright future!"
