Chapter 56 The Marquis's Wife Wants to Meet Her Son-in-Law
Yu Tingwan smiled gently, and looked at Lin Yu with a doting look.
"Yu'er, I'm not asking you to apologize to me. I'm your biological sister. No matter what you did or said, I will tolerate you. But outsiders won't be the same as me. I'm just worried that you might accidentally offend others in the future."
Upon hearing this, the Marquis's wife was deeply moved and her eyes became moist.
Although her two children did not grow up together, their blood relationship is inseparable.
Tingwan, this sister did such a great job!
Madam Hou gently patted Yu Tingwan's hand and said, "Tingwan, I feel relieved when you say this. Just discipline Yu'er from now on. If he doesn't obey, come and tell me, and I will definitely punish him!"
"Yes! Mother."
Yu Tingwan agreed in a soft voice.
But when he looked at Lin Yu, a flash of sarcasm passed through his eyes.
Of course, she would discipline Lin Yu, who spoke without thinking.
Lin Yu was so angry that he turned around and left.
Yu Tingwan supported Madam Hou, "Mother, let me take you back so that the servants can start filling the lotus pond as soon as possible."
The Marquis’s wife nodded, “You are so thoughtful!”
After sending the Marquis's wife back to the main courtyard, Yu Tingwan was about to leave, but was stopped by the Marquis's wife.
"Tingwan, come, sit down and talk to your mother!"
Yu Tingwan obediently sat down next to the Marquis' wife, with a peaceful smile on her face, staring at the Marquis' wife quietly before speaking.
The Marquis's wife stared at Yu Tingwan for a while before nodding with satisfaction. "Tingwan, you are the eldest daughter of the Marquis's family and hold a high position. Now that you have learned etiquette, you are becoming more and more like a daughter of the Marquis's family."
"Thank you for the compliment, mother. It's all because of my good teaching."
"You're incredibly clever! Anyone else wouldn't have learned this in such a short time!" The Marquis's wife said, then changed the subject. "You just met Siqiong's husband. He's a true young talent, young and promising, worthy of Siqiong's status. You have Lin blood in your veins, and your status is even more noble than Siqiong's. How could you spend your life with a country bumpkin? If word gets out, wouldn't the entire capital be a laughingstock?"
The smile on Yu Tingwan's lips faded a little. Although her voice was soft, her tone was firm. "Mother, I've said it before. I won't abandon my husband!"
The Marquis’s wife immediately frowned and was about to get angry on the spot.
But when he thought about the unpleasant ending of the last time he brought up this matter, he changed his attitude.
"I didn't ask you to abandon him." The Marquis's wife smiled and coaxed him gently, "After all, he is your husband, the son-in-law of the Yong'an Marquisate. Your father and I haven't met him yet, so it's not good to keep them together. Why don't you ask him to come to the mansion so that your father and I can meet him?"
When they met, one was a country bumpkin and the other was a rising star in the dynasty. When they sat together, the difference in height was immediately apparent.
By that time, she probably wouldn't need to say anything more, Yu Tingwan would want a divorce on her own.
After all, how many women in this world don’t want to marry a man of their dreams?
Who wants to be stepped on?
It just so happened that the Marquis told her last night that there was an official of the fourth rank in the court whose wife had just passed away, and he was a perfect match for her!
That official is only thirty-five this year, still young, yet he is already a fourth-rank official!
He and his previous wife only had one daughter, no son.
If Tingwan is married and gives birth to a son, then this person will completely become the Marquis's person, which will be of great benefit to the Marquis!
As for Youning, he stayed in the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
She's just a little girl. Although she can eat a little, it's not something we can't raise.
The more the Marquis's wife thought about it, the more satisfied she felt, and her smile became even brighter.
Yu Tingwan saw all of this, her eyelashes trembling, "Okay, I'll send someone to tell him."
"Then your father and I will be waiting! You are tired today, go back and rest!"
"Then mother, have a good rest. I'll leave in the evening."
Returning to his own yard, Yu Tingwan asked Bai Lu to leave and stood by the window, imitating a bird's call.
Soon, Xuanwu appeared behind Yu Tingwan.
"Has Youning arrived at the manor?"
Xuanwu lowered his head slightly, "Suzaku sent a message saying they have arrived."
"How's the matter I asked you to investigate last time?"
"There's already some progress. Of the money embezzled over the years, Manager Zhang only got half, but the Zhang family also had to live a life of slavery. Of the rest, a small half went to Lin Siqiong, and more than half was given away through Shen Qingmo."
"Who did you give it to?" Yu Tingwan was a little curious.
More than half of it is nearly 100,000 taels of silver!
Who was given so much silver?
Who is worthy of so much money from the couple?
"There were officials from the Ministry of Revenue, the imperial physician who diagnosed Lin Siqiong and helped her with her pregnancy, and people from the Imperial Observatory. Among them, 30,000 taels were given to the director of the Imperial Observatory alone."
Yu Tingwan laughed when he heard this, "I see!"
Xuanwu looked at Yu Tingwan with some confusion.
Yu Tingwan explained with a smile, "Lin Siqiong stole my identity and became the eldest daughter of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion. She married a man of her dreams, so she wanted to steal a good identity for her daughter as well. She's quite ambitious, even wanting her daughter to become the Crown Princess."
"Do you want to spread this news?" Xuanwu asked.
"No need." Yu Tingwan shook her head. "The royal family members are not fools. If you can find out, they can find out too. Even if they didn't know before, they will know after a long time. Just now, the Marquis' wife said she wanted to see my husband. Please notify him. If he has time, let him come."
Thinking of her husband, Yu Tingwan's eyes and brows were filled with smiles.
She took advantage of his busy schedule and secretly came to the capital with her daughter, not knowing how angry, jealous, and tantrum-throwing he would be.
Never mind, I'll just coax her a little more when the time comes.
Xuanwu laughed upon hearing this, "Yes! I'll inform the Young Master right away. He'll surely be very pleased!"
-
It is sunny in early summer.
The road is shaded by green trees and the breeze blows towards you.
Yu Youning opened the car window, stuck his head out, and breathed in big gulps of fresh air.
She had to smile when she saw the scattered sunlight shining through the leaves, and she had to smile when she saw the birds jumping and chasing her on the branches.
Hearing her laughter as clear as a silver bell, Zhu Xuezhen's originally heavy mood became much more relaxed.
He originally just wanted Yu Youning to help him check on his wife's health, and bringing Huo Qingchen along was already a surprise.
But the prince somehow got the news and was waiting at his door early, saying that he wanted to go with him.
The prince wants to go, how can he refuse?
Lin Ruoli naturally followed the prince closely.
Including Zhai Heming, who was good friends with Lin Ruoli, there were actually five young children in the car!
If you don’t know, you might think that he, as a teacher, is taking his students for an outing in the countryside!
The carriage traveled for half an hour before finally entering a farm.
As soon as the gate of Zhuangzi was closed, countless guards came from afar and surrounded the entire Zhuangzi like an iron gate.
Chu Huaixu is the crown prince. Although no one follows him on the surface, he actually always has many people protecting him.
Everything outside Zhuangzi is unknown to the people inside.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Yu Youning jumped out impatiently and looked around.
Seeing her like this, Chu Huaixu asked with a smile, "What are you looking for?"
"Horse! Rabbit! Bird eggs!"
"?"
Chu Huaixu's eyes were full of confusion, and he didn't quite understand how these three things were put together.
Lin Ruoli raised her head and looked at Chu Huaixu in front of her.
She really didn't understand why the prince would leave the magnificent palace and come to this shabby farm.
What's so good about this place?
The brick and stone road is covered with dirt, and there are no precious flowers or plants planted around it. The house looks gray and I don’t know whether it is clean or not.
Although she was extremely disgusted, she had no choice but to come with the prince since he was coming.
In the past few days, she has been accompanying the Crown Prince in the palace. Seeing that the Crown Prince is getting better with her company, her heart is finally at peace.
Only when she is by the prince's side can he stay healthy!
This was witnessed by the Emperor and the Empress themselves!
Her identity as the girl of destiny and the future Crown Princess is set in stone!
Mother is so awesome!
Although she failed to drown Yu Youning, her position became more secure!
No matter how much Yu Youning, the little village girl, pretends to be stupid and foolish, you can never take away what belongs to her!
Lin Ruoli thought about it, looked at Yu Youning with some disdain, and then spoke softly, "Brother Crown Prince, it's windy and sunny outside, let's go inside. You've only just gotten better, so you should be careful."
Lin Ruoli thought she was gentle and considerate, but Chu Huaixu saw the look she just gave Yu Youning.
His health has been really bad these days.
He deliberately didn't eat the candy beans given by Yu Youning and let Lin Ruoli stay with him, just to see how capable Lin Ruoli was.
After a few days, his health did improve a little, but it was only a little, better than nothing.
But today, as soon as he saw Yu Youning, the coldness as if he had fallen into an icy cave disappeared for the most part.
He came here in the same carriage with Yu Youning, and his body was nurtured bit by bit by Wen Wen.
He could clearly feel that his body had returned to the state it was in before falling into the water!
The person who can make his health better is obviously You Ning!
Realizing this, Chu Huaixu was filled with excitement.
But having been the crown prince for so many years, he had long since mastered the art of concealing his emotions, so it was not visible on his face at all.
Although Chu Huaixu was excited, he also felt strange.
If Lin Ruoli is not the girl of destiny, why does she have a certain influence on his body?
Why did the director of the Imperial Observatory say that Lin Ruoli was the girl destined by heaven?
If Lin Ruoli is not the girl of destiny, then is there something wrong with the time of her birth, or is there something wrong with the supervisor's comments?
Chu Huaixu lowered his eyes and suppressed all the thoughts in his eyes.
Zhu Xuezheng twirled his beard and said, "It's too sunny outside. Let's go take shelter under the awning first! I have some fresh fruits on my farm. I'll have someone pick them for you to eat."
When he heard there was food, Yu Youning was the most enthusiastic. "Xuezheng, where are the fruits? Can I pick them myself?"
