Chapter 460: Different Paths for Humans and Ghosts
After this, Tian Shi really found an opportunity to visit. Xu Muhua warmly entertained her, and later Yan Shuyun was added. Tian Shi and Yan Shuyun actually have many similarities in their personalities, so there is no problem getting along with each other.
Only Xu Muhua is very different from them. But for some reason, these two people like Xu Muhua very much. They are obviously older than her, but in front of her, they always behave like little girls.
Xu Muhua does not have the idea of competing with each other. On the contrary, she likes beautiful, good-tempered, and soft beauties. On the premise of getting along well, of course the more friends the better.
Liang Yichao, on the other hand, does not know why, but he always feels a little uneasy in his heart. He always felt that his wife was always running to the Duke Cheng's mansion, and it seemed that she had become a different person as she ran. She was not as obedient as before, and now she dared to argue with him!
He thought his wife had learned bad things from his sister Mu Hua! But he didn't dare to say it!
If he said that, his sister Mu Hua would definitely not forgive him!
Not to mention that A Rui was coming back!
The wedding date of Xu Muhua and the prince was scheduled for March. After the New Year, the Duke Cheng and the prince would come back from the border to prepare to attend their daughter's (sister's) wedding, and the capital began to get busy again.
Xu Muhua had always been indifferent to her marriage. As the wedding date approached, she was finally forced by her mother Xu to start paying attention to it - she had to pretend to be busy, because there was actually nothing she should be busy with.
Although she was a concubine, the emperor's original decree said that she, a concubine, could also have a wedding. It was just that the specifications were slightly lower than those of the Crown Princess, so naturally there would be people from the Ministry of Rites to take care of it, and the dowry would also be prepared by people in the mansion.
When Xu's mother's family arrived in the capital, the Chengguo Mansion became more lively than ever before.
Many people from the Song family came this time, including the eldest aunt who didn't come last time, and the eldest cousin of the Song family.
The second aunt was always thinking about Yunniang, even though Xu Muhua had written to her and the letter also described Yunniang's affairs in detail, she still couldn't let it go.
So this time when she arrived at the Chengguo Mansion, she rested for a night and came to Fenghua Garden early the next day.
As soon as Xu Muhua saw her coming, she knew that she must be here for Yunniang's affairs.
She asked the servants in the room to leave and said, "Second aunt, you want to ask about Yunniang, right?"
Second aunt nodded and said, "I know you have said everything you should say in the letter, but I still can't let it go and want to ask again."
"Second aunt, just ask whatever you want to ask. It's okay. I understand."
But second aunt didn't know how to start.
Finally, it was Xu Muhua who spoke up: "Second aunt, those who killed Yunniang have received retribution. What they did was finally made public, and everyone knows that he had let down a person named Yunniang."
"Cui was poisoned to death by her own sister. After she was sent to prison, she found out that the man surnamed Huang had already kept a concubine and had several children, more than she had. Do you think this is the biggest revenge for her?" "
As for the man surnamed Huang, I took Yunniang to the prison to see him, and Yunniang saw his end with her own eyes. So Yunniang has let go of the obsession in her heart, and maybe she has gone to where she should go, and is about to start a new journey of life."
The second aunt's eyes turned red again without knowing when, and she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, her voice a little hoarse, "I understand everything, but I just can't let him go..."
"Second aunt, this is a good thing for Yunniang. You should be happy for her. This is her final destination. Otherwise, if she continues to stay in the world, she will be reduced to ashes one day. You don't want to see her end up in such a miserable end, right?"
Second aunt shook her head vigorously.
"Muhua, you say...you say whether Yunniang is still in Xuanqing Temple now, then can I..."
"No!"
Xu Muhua looked at the second aunt gently but very firmly: "Second aunt, whether Yunniang is still in Xuanqing Temple or not, you should not disturb her again. Humans and ghosts have different paths, and it is time to make a decision. If you are reluctant to let go, Yunniang will also be reluctant to let go. For Yunniang, this is not a good thing and will affect her departure."
Second aunt's face changed for a while, and finally she couldn't help sobbing softly.
Xu Muhua did not say anything to persuade her.
For the second aunt, seeing Yunniang again, even if it was just Yunniang's ghost, might be a kind of recovery for her. What is lost and recovered is naturally more precious. Reason is one thing, emotion is another.
The second aunt sobbed softly for a while before gradually stopping. She lowered her head and wiped it before raising her head and smiling, "You are right, the more I can't let go, the more Yunniang will be entangled. Leaving is the best ending for Yunniang."
She couldn't selfishly keep Yunniang just because she couldn't bear to let her go. She still wanted Yunniang to have a good afterlife.
"It's good that the second aunt understands. Just think of what happened before as a dream!"
Now that she has woken up from the dream, it's time to return to normal life.
"I'll try my best!"
"Second aunt, your relatives on your mother's side..."
Second aunt perked up, "I only told this to my brother, and kept it a secret from my parents. They are old and can't stand this kind of stimulation. Fortunately, that place is far away from the capital, so the news won't spread there."
My brother also warned the servants in the house. No matter what the servants heard, they were not allowed to tell the two elders about what was said outside. Anyone who dared to say anything would be sold out!
My parents are old and rarely leave the house. After a long time, no one should mention it.
Xu Muhua nodded, "Indeed we should keep it a secret, and wait until a hundred years later before telling them!"
"Yeah, that's what we planned to do."
The second aunt was worried that the more she talked, the more uncomfortable she would feel, so she changed the subject, "By the way, Muhua, the gift you asked me to bring back to your cousin last time, was it the glassware that is very popular in Beijing recently?" When
Xu Muhua mentioned this, she couldn't stop smiling.
In just two months, her wallet has become much fatter! She makes more money than when she was in the mahjong hall!
Even Brother Feng said that it exceeded his expectations. Because the price is so high, Brother Feng said that it won't be long before he can get his money back!
Listen, he invested so much at the beginning, but it hasn't been long, and he can almost get his money back!
This business is really profitable!
"It is indeed the glassware that is popular in Beijing recently. Does my cousin like it when she receives it?"
The second aunt smiled and said, "She likes it very much!"
Especially after the craze in Beijing spread to that place, she originally thought it was just an ordinary treasure, but later found that people in Beijing were going crazy for it! It was even harder to find there.
