On the 13th, Xiangyun went to Jia's house and wrote several poems.
Nowadays, Daiyu is cultivating herself in the palace of Prince Heng, and Baochai, Baoqin and others are not in the capital. Among the sisters, when it comes to poetry, Xiangyun is still the leader.
So Xiangyun was happy to go back home until dinner. After returning home, he hurriedly freshened up and went to bed. On the 14th, he asked Cuixi and heard that Ye Pinglan was willing to eat, so he stopped caring about it.
He ordered someone to bring in some things that could be easily digested and made him eat some ginseng soup. He had Ye Pinglan drink a few bowls of it, and then sent him to the Ministry of Rites.
On the 15th, Ye Pinglan came out and fell to the ground before he even got to his car. His breath was weak. The boy who came to pick him up was so frightened that he hurriedly sent him back. The whole Ye family panicked and asked for medical advice.
In such a hurry, the sister-in-law of the Ye family looked at Xiangyun with great disdain: "What did I say before? You didn't believe it. You insisted on saying that I was unscrupulous and well-intentioned. Now that my second brother is so ill, are you satisfied? There are still exams. Why?
What he is trying to do is not as important as his own man’s life.”
Xiangyun's face turned red with anger: Is this what a lady should say? It's too vulgar. So she didn't bother to pay attention to the sister-in-law of the Ye family. She only asked Cui Wei to take her post to Rongguo Mansion and ask Jia Mu for help. Please
A familiar imperial doctor came over. After Jia Mu received the news, because the original imperial physician Wang died suddenly, she invited another imperial physician Zhang, whom she often visited with her family, to go to the Ye family. Imperial Doctor Zhang diagnosed: "Young master, you are over-attentive.
It’s caused by fatigue, so I need to rest and recuperate for a period of time.” He then prescribed a prescription. Although Xiangyun was not familiar with pharmacology, he recognized the names of several medicinal herbs, all of which were warming and nourishing, so he sealed the prescription respectfully.
The consultation fee was given to Dr. Zhang. When everyone in the Ye family saw that she was so decent, they gave up for a while.
Ye Pinglan's illness had been ups and downs for more than a month. When he finally got better, the apricot list was posted. The boy who went to see the list didn't know how to use euphemisms. When he came back, he said to Ye Pinglan bluntly: "Second Master,
I have read it carefully, but your name is not on the list."
Ye Pinglan was anxious: "Why is there no my name? Did you miss it?"
The boy hurriedly kowtowed and replied: "Second Master, how dare I miss such a big event? I checked it five times and even asked other family members who were looking at the list to help me look for it. It is true that your name is not there.
.”
Doesn't that mean that everyone in the capital knew that he failed? Ye Pinglan rolled his eyes, his blood surged, and he immediately pouted.
Xiangyun was so frightened that he hurriedly helped Ye Pinglan, and then screamed and dragged the boy who reported the news out with a stick. When he saw him, he pinched the person, pinched the nose, and tried all kinds of methods to wake Ye Pinglan. Xiangyun was even more frightened and hurriedly
He hurriedly sent people to report the news to the other masters of the Ye family, and also asked people to invite doctors and imperial doctors. Unfortunately, the imperial doctor Zhang went to the palace for duty. The old doctor who was worshiped by the family was taken away by Xiangyun some days ago, and the new one was invited.
The doctor couldn't figure out the cause and effect, so he didn't dare to prescribe medicine at will, so he delayed Ye Pinglan until midnight. Seeing this, Xiangyun felt cold all over, filled with despair, and fainted.
After Ye Pinglan passed away, the Ye family was very sad and resentful that Xiangyun failed to leave him a son and a half daughters, so that he had no one to worship him in the future. The old lady of the Ye family and the Ye family's wife thought of the Tong who was pregnant before.
Fang, I couldn't help but regret in my heart. If I had known that I would not have listened to my son/master and left the child behind, he would be a bastard. Lan'er can be considered a married woman. In order to please the historian, Shi Xiangyun was jealous and intolerant.
With several noble relatives present, everyone knew that for the sake of Lan'er's future, the child had to be aborted. The old lady of the Ye family and Mrs. Ye's family only had to think of the fetus that had been taken away and their grandson.
/ The second son died young and had no heirs, so he didn’t want to see Xiangyun even more.
At this time, the sister-in-law of the Ye family was standing aside and said that the reason why Ye Pinglan died was because Xiangyun did not listen to her and insisted on forcing Ye Pinglan to take the imperial examination, which caused him to be exhausted mentally and physically and die of exhaustion. The old lady of the Ye family and his wife were furious.
Li: Okay, it turns out that it was this poisonous woman who forced Brother Lan to die! Old and new grudges broke out, and she ignored the obstruction of the Ye family master and wanted Xiangyun to die as her husband. Xiangyun was young, so he was
How could she be willing to die like this when she was as beautiful as a flower? Then she started crying.
While the Shi family was in office, they had no control over the capital, not to mention the affairs of Xiangyun, which they were unwilling to take a close look at. In order to avoid affecting their daughter's marriage, they sent a housekeeper to tell Xiangyun: "As a wife, a woman should obey the rules of the family."
Finally, since you are now a widow, you should live in a separate place, be pure and honest, and do not do anything to insult the history of the family. Otherwise, it is better to die and sacrifice your husband." He also told the Ye family: Xiangyun is the wife of the Ye family.
, it is the duty of a widow to observe integrity, but her dowry is personal property given to her by the historian, and the Ye family cannot steal it and should return it to her.
The old lady, wife, and sister-in-law of the Ye family couldn't help but blush when they heard what Butler Shi said. They wanted to force Xiangyun to death. Besides hating her for killing Ye Pinglan, why didn't they envy her and embezzle her property?
When this matter came to an end, Jia Mu, thinking about her old friendship, came to Ye's house in person under the escort of Jia Lian and Baoyu, negotiated with the Ye family's masters, and handed over all the things in Xiangyun Court to Ye's family.
family, and exchanged the house in the capital from Xiangyun's dowry for a small village in the suburbs of the Ye family, and settled Xiangyun there, living as a widow and living on the remaining dowry.
The old lady of the Ye family, my wife was unwilling to do so, but Jia Mu said that Xiangyun is still the wife of the Ye family. If she is always pure and abide by the law, she will be a chaste woman in the future. The court will commend her, and Zhangmen is also a great person to her.
The old lady of the Ye family was moved after hearing this. She also got a large amount of property from Xiangyun Court, so she no longer insisted and let Xiangyun go.
Seeing that the matter was settled, the eldest sister-in-law of the Ye family was unwilling to accept it. She rolled her eyes and sneered: "Hold on, old lady, don't blame me for speaking harshly. It's just that my sister-in-law said she was willing to keep the rules, but she has to live in the house.
Besides, she is thousands of miles away from the city, and it takes a whole day to go back and forth. How do we know that she really observes the holidays? What if she is shameless and does something unbecoming of a woman?
, we were not well informed, so we were not humiliated in vain? What else were we thinking about at that time? We could only dream."
After hearing what she said was vulgar, Jia Mu was so angry that she trembled all over, and said coldly: "We girl Yun has been a lady since she was a child. She studied "Female Commandments", "Internal Training", "The Analects of Confucius" and "Nv Fan Jie Lu"
With the language of the sages taught by our ancestors, we will definitely not be able to do anything that violates ethics."
The eldest sister-in-law of the Ye family was very thick-skinned and said nonchalantly: "That's not certain, what if? I know people, know faces, but don't know the heart. Old lady, according to you, my younger brother and sister also grew up in the third and fourth virtues, but I haven't seen her in these years.
Just do it, right?"
Jia Mu took a deep breath and said, "Then what do you want?"
The eldest sister-in-law of the Ye family sneered and said: "We have to check that village in person. The surrounding walls have to be piled up by our family. Except for the servants who can go out to buy things, the younger siblings are not allowed to go out in person! Also, it was the younger siblings who harmed me.
The younger brother and sister who died of our second brother must shave their hair and practice spiritual practice from now on, fast for a long time, and recite sutras and pray for our second brother every day."
Mother Jia let out a long sigh, hugged Xiangyun and said, "That's all. It's the right thing to do. It's just that it's really difficult to shave off your hair and practice. It's not a monk, just practice with your hair on." After thinking about it, he added, "Although,
A widow should not go out, but at my age, it is very difficult to go out. The city is far away, and I can't go out to see her all the time. Let Yun Yatou go to the city once a month to see me.
"
Before the elder sister-in-law of the Ye family could say anything, the master of the Ye family agreed: "It's just what the old lady wants. Let the second daughter-in-law go to the city on the 15th of every month and come back on the 16th."
Jia's mother agreed, and the two families signed a deed on the matters discussed, and asked the clan elders to bear witness.
From then on, Xiangyun lived alone in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city to observe the festival.
