Chapter 168: A Big Deal
Chapter 168 A big deal
Although the Hu family was very sorry that Yu Yongye chose Shuangye instead of Hu Qiaohui, things were already like this and there was no other way. They could only persuade Hu Qiaohui to be more open-minded.
Even Hu Qiaolan rushed back with a big belly and couldn't help but persuade her, "That Yu Xiucai is also a person without vision. He was so fascinated by that vixen that he didn't know what to do. It's okay not to let such a person go. Treat your sister as such."
Ask the matchmaker to find a better one for you."
Hu Qiaohui shook her head with tears in her eyes, "I only want brother Yongye. I don't like anyone else, and I won't marry him."
"This child..." Mother Hu sighed, "She is really obsessed with that boy named Yu. He is going to marry Shuangye. If you still want to marry into the Yu family, is it possible that you have to rush to join the family?
Isn’t it my concubine?”
Not to mention that being a concubine is really embarrassing, and since Yu Yongye doesn't like Hu Qiaohui and refuses to marry her, I'm afraid he won't let her in as a concubine either.
Hu Qiaohui gritted her teeth and said, "If you want to marry brother Yongye, of course you have to be the first wife."
"and you……"
"It's just a proposal of marriage. Even if the wedding date is really set, what if brother Yongye regrets the marriage then?"
As soon as Hu Qiaohui's words came out, both Hu Qiaolan and Hu's mother were stunned.
There is no such thing as regretting a marriage, but it is generally rare. Unless something big happens, the probability of such a thing is still too low.
This is obviously a sign of stubbornness and unwillingness to give up!
Hu's mother still wanted to persuade her, but Hu Qiaolan stopped her, "Qiaohui is usually gentle, but her temper is stubborn. I'm afraid she won't wait until Yu Xiucai gets married. She just asked her to look back and saw her.
I just gave up."
"During this period, my mother and I are helping to see if there is anything better. If there is anything better, maybe Qiaohui will not like Yu Xiucai. Let's not persuade him now.
Talking too much and talking too much only made her get more and more into trouble."
Mother Hu thought it made sense and just nodded, "Okay."
The mother and daughter left the room, and Hu Qiaohui sat beside the bed, with half of her fingernails broken off.
Brother Yongye will definitely regret the marriage, for sure!——
These days, He Mansion has been a bit busy.
Although it cannot be described as a crowded place, there was an endless stream of people coming to deliver gifts and greeting cards, almost without interruption.
As for the reasons, firstly, He Yanxiu's trip to Hedong went very smoothly. After going through difficulties and obstacles, everything went smoothly for the mint where the Ministry of Household Affairs was established. In addition, he was diligent in government affairs on weekdays and was promoted from the position of doctor to the powerful Minister of Household Affairs.
The so-called Quan Hubu Shilang is actually the Hubu Shilang. Because he is relatively young and has relatively low qualifications, he is on probation. He can be promoted to the Hubu Shilang after one year.
Even so, there are really only a few people at He Yanxiu's age who can be promoted to Minister of Power and Household Affairs. If we look at it carefully, He Chengye is even younger and more promising than before.
Such a young talent, who is highly regarded by the emperor, naturally needs to travel around and make connections.
Secondly, it was because He Yande was seriously ill and bedridden.
Although He Yande was not as respected as He Yanxiu on weekdays and was not as popular as He Yanxiu in the court, he still served in the Ministry of Works and was the eldest grandson of the He family. He suddenly suffered such a misfortune and would be paralyzed for the rest of his life.
The bed, for the sake of the He family, needs to be visited once or twice.
Even if you don't go to visit in person, it is still necessary to ask the housekeeper or decent steward at home to send something to express your condolences.
He Yanxiu and the entire He family handled this kind of entertainment and interactions very well.
By the time He Yande was completely paralyzed in the lower half of his body, he had a bad temper and yelled all day long, making the whole yard uneasy.
"This morning, I smashed three or four bowls in just one meal, and in the afternoon I smashed two vases. Now even the people serving me are frightened."
Listening to Xing'an's report, He Yanxiu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did you take all the food and medicine on time?"
"Three meals a day, three meals a day of decoction, never missed a single meal, the appetite seems to be better than before." Xing'an answered truthfully, "In addition, the eldest son sent people to convey the message several times today, saying that he was going to eat.
Second Master, please come over. Second Master, do you want to come over?"
"The eldest brother is very capable of handling things and knows that he has to take good care of his health at this time." He Yanxiu put down the painting pen in his hand, "Since the eldest brother has invited me so many times, as a younger brother, it would be inappropriate for me not to go."
"yes."
Xing'an lit a lantern and took advantage of the darkness to go to He Yande's yard.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard door, he heard a "bang" sound, like the sound of porcelain falling to the ground, followed by He Yande's curse.
"I have only been ill for a few days, but you are so perfunctory in doing things. Is it because everyone wants to bully me because I can't move? Come on! Pull this shameless boy out and beat him to death!"
"
Someone came in and pulled down the young boy who was kneeling on the ground, trembling, begging for mercy, and with his head smashed.
He Yanxiu entered the room, "It's just a small matter, why should I be so cruel?"
When He Yande saw He Yanxiu, his eyes turned red, as if he were about to spit out fire, "Stop pretending to be a good person here. Didn't you secretly do something cruel behind your back?"
"That night you let me go in order to preserve your reputation, but you were really unwilling to do so, so you had someone tamper with the carriage to kill me, right? It's a pity that I'm lucky. Although my legs are disabled, I can't do it.
People still survived, you must be very unwilling!"
He Yanxiu responded slowly, "Since returning to Beijing, I have only been out one night, and that was the night when I was tracking down the thieves who destroyed the Hedong Prefecture Mine. Someone did escape that night. What I mean is that I was involved in that matter.
?The eldest brother is the one who escaped? If this is the case, then I need to report it again and the case needs to be re-tried."
He Yanxiu let He Yande go in the first place largely because those people would not confess He Yande, and he would be accused of frame-up.
But if He Yande takes the initiative to admit it, it will be different.
He Yande realized that he had made a mistake, so he stopped talking and looked at He Yanxiu with a face filled with resentment.
He Yanxiu ignored him and just stood up, "Brother called me over several times. If you just want to talk about these things, I still have something to do, so I won't keep you company."
While he was talking, the person was already walking out.
"Wait!" He Yande called out to He Yanxiu, "I have something to tell you!"
"If it's a trivial matter, forget it."
"It's a big deal, a big deal!"
…
When He Yanxiu came out of He Yande's house, it was already after a long meal.
When the two people were talking in the house, the doors and windows were closed, and everyone was waiting outside.
Seeing He Yanxiu coming out, Xing'an quickly put a cloak on He Yanxiu and said, "Second Master, are you okay?"
"Nothing." He Yanxiu raised his head and asked the boy next to him, "Why don't you see your sister-in-law?"
The monthly ticket is so pitiful these days, it’s about to drop from the 50’s, blah blah blah... The author is ill-coded, and I’ll try to add more in the next two days~
