Chu Yunli frowned, and Liu Gucheng came in with a smile at the door. When he saw her standing at the door, he pointed his finger at her and teased, "Are you eavesdropping again?"
Still laughing.
Chu Yunli put her finger on her lips. Liu Gucheng understood instantly and stood outside the curtain, whispering, "What did you say?"
I heard Yang's voice inside, "Mom, you'd better... start taking concubines... It's best to divorce me and marry someone else!"
When Liu Gucheng heard this, he immediately became anxious. He opened the curtain and rushed in, "What are you talking about?"
Chu Yunli stretched out her hand to pull it, but she didn't have time.
Yang stood up, covered her face, and cried harder.
When Liu Gucheng knew the reason, his face turned ugly, and he hugged Yang into his arms, "Don't cry, at worst we don't want children."
"Nonsense!" Yang scolded, "How can the Hou Mansion not have children if it has been built for a hundred years?"
If a concubine wanted to seize the title, he would have to be demoted. Originally he was a marquis, and if he was demoted again, he would be an uncle.
But if Liu Gucheng neither takes concubines nor divorces his wife and marries another one, as the heir apparent, he will have no heirs. At that time, he will have to adopt an adopted daughter, or he will have to be demoted to a noble title. The best way is to divorce his wife and marry another one.
Wei's face looked very ugly, and she said with relief, "There are many doctors in the capital. It's better to find a few more doctors and talk about it later."
Whatever he said, it was obvious that Mr. Wei already had other ideas.
Just like what Yang said, how can the Hou Mansion have no heirs if it has been built for a hundred years?
The atmosphere in the room was dull, and it took a while before everyone dispersed.
Chu Yunli followed Liu Gucheng and his wife directly to their yard, and then Liu Gucheng went out to find the doctor. She held Yang's comforter, felt her pulse without leaving a trace, and said, "I was in Anguo Hou Mansion for three years before.
Since I wasn't pregnant, Mrs. Hou found some folk remedies for me. I can't get pregnant because it's not a physical problem. I can't use those folk remedies. I'll stew them for you to drink from tomorrow."
Yang lost a lot of weight on the way back. After she knew that she could not give birth, the attitude of everyone in the Hou family towards her would probably change, but she did not expect that Liu Gucheng would be so interested in her, even her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
He didn't mean to dislike her at all. Now that he heard Chu Yunli's words, he cried immediately.
Chu Yunli comforted her a few more times, and after returning home, she wrote a recipe for someone to prepare a medicinal meal.
The medicated food tasted much better than the medicine. From then on, I gave him a bowl every morning and evening, and my life became calmer.
In a blink of an eye, winter turned to spring, and the spring scenery was just right. On this day, Chu Yunli went to Fu'an Garden to say hello.
She didn't come here every day. The old lady did value her, but what she valued even more was the concubine in the palace. Especially after Chu Yunli and Li returned home, she didn't really want to see her granddaughter.
Chu Yunli knew it in her heart, and she didn't bother coming over to annoy the old lady. She came to say hello every three to five days, which made her feel relaxed and the old lady happy.
Today's Fu'an Garden is a little different. As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw an old lady who usually didn't like to go out, admiring flowers in the garden. To be precise, it was a girl admiring flowers.
The girl in the flowers looks to be fifteen or sixteen years old, with a pretty face and a sweet smile. She is picking flowers at this time.
Chu Yunli was a little surprised, and the maid next to her immediately whispered, "My dear, I'm sorry, this is the grand-niece brought back from the old lady's family. She arrived last night, so I didn't tell you."
Chu Yunli walked directly to the old lady to say hello, without asking the girl over there what she meant, and turned to leave.
The old lady who didn't like to talk to her in the past stopped her uncharacteristically today, "Gu Yu, this is your cousin. You two are about the same age, so you should talk together more often."
Chu Yunli shook his head, "Grandma, I'm divorced. It's better not to be with my cousin. It would be bad if it affects her reputation."
The old lady was not satisfied with her answer. She frowned, but didn't say much. She waved her hand and said, "Take your cousin to the main courtyard with you. She hasn't met your mother yet."
Chu Yunli was a little confused. She didn't come to say hello because the old lady didn't like it. But Mrs. Wei came every day, sometimes more than once. Why couldn't she wait even this little time?
Without asking any questions, the girl who came with a smile walked out of the garden.
The girl had a sweet smile on her face and said, "Cousin, just call me Lianyu."
Chu Yunli was surprised at the moment, what kind of name is "Lianyu"? Who would name their daughter like this?
As if seeing the surprise on her face, Yu Lianyu lowered his head, the sweet smile on his face was gone, and his voice was thin, "I am a concubine."
She looked a little pitiful like this.
But Chu Yunli saw that there were too many poor people in the world. The one in front of him was covered in silk, born in the same family, and the flowers in his hair were treasures that ordinary people would never see in their lifetimes. How could he be so pitiful?
There was some silence along the way. When Yu Lianyu brought up the topic several times, Chu Yunli ignored her casually and had no intention of talking to her. After a few times, Yu Lianyu also shut up obediently and no longer disliked her.
Entering the main courtyard, Mrs. Yang happened to be there too. When she saw Chu Yunli bringing a girl in, Mrs. Wei was a little confused, "Who is this?"
"The cousin from the Yu family that my grandmother picked up." Chu Yunli's tone was unclear. When she saw Mrs. Yang, she suddenly remembered that during the Chinese New Year, she seemed to have heard Mrs. Wei say that the old lady wanted Liu Gucheng to take a concubine.
It's just that Mrs. Wei pushed it. Could it be that the old lady took the grandniece on her own initiative and wanted to give it to Liu Gucheng?
Yang's expression immediately changed, while Wei's expression remained unchanged, "Is it Miss Yu? I think I've seen you before, you were only this old at that time,"
She stretched out her hand and gestured, "I didn't expect that I have become a big girl now..." Mrs. Wei seemed to be having a good time, asking a lot of questions about the Yu family, and she seemed quite satisfied.
Yu Lianyu must have known the intentions of some old ladies, so she answered them respectfully.
The two people were chatting happily, and Yang's smile became more and more forced. Finally, when she was about to get up and leave, Wei opened her mouth and dismissed Yu Lianyu.
After she left, Mrs. Wei said, "Don't worry, soon, this girl will have a place to go."
Sure enough, in the afternoon, Liu Guli from the second room went to the old lady in person to beg Yu Lianyu. The old lady agreed after she couldn't bear it.
At that time, neither Yang nor Chu Yunli had left the main courtyard.
When Mrs. Yang heard the news, she burst into tears immediately, "Thank you very much, mother, but I...I don't live up to expectations."
"Speaking of which, our Liu family still feels sorry for you." Mrs. Wei sighed, "You married a good girl, but it ended up like this. If I took the initiative to take a concubine, I would really be sorry for you. You are still young anyway.
Just wait a little longer.”
After Mrs. Yang left, Mrs. Wei sighed and said to her daughter, "Everything in our first house is robbed by others. I just found a match for you a few days ago, so I asked the second house to leave later. Too much."
This is disgusting. When your father comes back, I will have to discuss it with him."
Chu Yunli never knew about marriage or anything like that, "Mom, I don't want to get married."
Seeing that she was still resisting, Mrs. Wei turned around and said, "No news has come out from the palace for half a year. I don't know if Yuan's face has healed?"
"Probably not." Chu Yunli said calmly, "She likes to show off her favor to the Marquis. She has been so quiet in the past six months. She should be quietly recovering from her injuries."
After Liu Yu came back, Mrs. Wei had a deep talk with him. After that, he went to see the old lady again, and no more nieces and nephews came to the house.
The weather this year seems to be a bit abnormal. Summer has not yet begun, but it is already extremely hot. By mid-May, it would be impossible to sit in the house without an ice basin.
At this time, news came from the palace that the emperor was going to a summer resort in the suburbs, and all officials with titles in the capital could bring their families with him.
The emperor ordered that no matter what everyone thought in their hearts, they should look grateful on their faces and take the whole family with them.
Of course, most people are willing to do so. Except for a few of these marquises who have important positions, most of them have not seen the emperor for a long time. They all say that they fall in love when they meet. It has been a long time since they have seen each other, and there are no capable descendants in the family.
, I don’t know when I was deposed.
Therefore, on the day when Luan Jia left the capital, there were many carriages following behind him.
Chu Yunli was also among them, not because she wanted to escape the heat, but after asking around specifically, she learned that Liu Yuan from the palace was also there as he had been in his previous life.
There was indeed a summer vacation in the previous life, and it was in the summer resort that Liu Guyu discovered Wen Ruxu's feelings for Liu Yuan.
Before that, the two had been a loving couple for four years. Once they found out that her husband had someone else in his heart, it was a big blow to her. Moreover, she couldn't make a fuss. If the fuss got bigger, the two princes' mansions would be in trouble.
Everyone has to be buried with him. He can only feel depressed and then get sick.
Luan Jia was not walking very fast in front, and the officials behind him were not walking very fast either. Ten days later, they finally arrived at the villa.
The Summer Resort is built on Yulong Mountain, three hundred miles away from the capital. It towers into the clouds. The higher you go up, the cooler it gets. The emperor lives closest to the top of the mountain, surrounded by his concubines. Then there are the princes, and below are the various princes.
The Marquis and some of the emperor's important ministers were caught in the process.
Anguohou's Mansion and Dingguohou's Mansion lived next to each other as they did in the previous life. Because there were too many people, the places where the two princes lived were actually two courtyards separated by a road.
A palace official led him to the entrance of the courtyard. When he got off the carriage, Chu Yunli opened the curtain and saw Wen Ruxu getting off the carriage. He also opened the curtain to pick up Li Cuicha in the carriage.
The three of them faced each other from a distance. Li Cuicha thought for a while and stepped forward with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, girl. How are you doing lately?"
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows. At first glance, her gentle and graceful appearance really looked like Liu Yuan who had not yet entered the palace.
"Why did you promise me in the first place?" Chu Yunli looked at Wen Ruxu beside her, "When you left, you said you would never go to the Hou Mansion again."
Li Cuicha lowered his head.
Wen Ruxu answered, "I picked her up. You knew that she was not liked by her family, but you still let her go home. Do you want her to be sold again?" There was dissatisfaction in his tone.
Chu Yunli sneered, "Are you stupid?"
Wen Ruxu was startled. Such a straightforward curse had never happened to Liu Guyu before.
"I gave her a thousand taels of silver when she left. I can sell her dozens of times, okay? Her family will sell their daughter with a thousand taels of silver?"
"Even if her money is taken away by her family, the Li family, who has one thousand taels of silver, still need to sell their daughter?" Chu Yunli looked at him with disdain, "Your brain is so stupid when you meet a woman who looks like this.
She seems to have grown up in vain. She has a thousand taels of silver, and her life is better than that of a small family in the capital, so why should you pity her?"
