Chapter 223 Her father went to stir up trouble in the Yang family
"Listen to Uncle Eight and arrange to have dinner in the pavilion on the west side." Shen Yunyue hurriedly told Mu Ya to clean up.
Mu Ya responded and left.
Uncle Yun Jiu glanced coldly at Mu Ya as she left, "Did you bring a maid with you?"
"Uncle Jiu, are you talking about Mu Ya? I picked her up on the way. Her father is from the Yang family, a prominent family in the capital. Please keep her with me for the time being.
There is no good person in the Yang family clan, and they were fooled by a low-class scumbag.
The legitimate son was driven out and their property was seized."
Shen Yunyue really couldn't stand the group of people with the surname Yang. They were throwing their consciences to the dogs for money.
The head of the Lu family had heard about what happened that year.
After all, it caused quite a stir in the capital.
He shook his head and sneered:
"Those people in the Yang family are also lacking in virtue. They are used to throwing mud. They exaggerate what they did and put it in a different way. They find a few witnesses and then use the power of the clan to suppress the children of the head of the family."
"You're saying Patriarch Yang didn't know the truth back then? He was just jealous of his father-in-law's family and took the opportunity to kill his own son.
He has many illegitimate sons, and his favorite concubines are even more prolific. Each of them is better at making him happy than his legitimate sons."
Uncle Yun glanced at Mu Ya who was walking away.
It turned out that he was a poor person like them, and he must have been hiding for many years.
As they were talking, several people walked towards the pavilion in the west.
It is called a pavilion, but it looks more like a waterside pavilion.
A pond was dug near the stream and water was diverted from the stream.
A pavilion was built in the middle of the pond, and a small wooden suspension bridge connected the shore and the pavilion.
Lanterns are hung around the pavilion.
Uncle Yun's originally gentle expression showed a hint of surprise.
"This pavilion is quite unique."
"The Shen family has two such pavilions. We will build a bigger one over there." Shen Yunyue smiled and explained:
"Xuan Heng said that our pond should be bigger and have lotus flowers planted in it.
We need to build a stone arch bridge, and the pavilion must also use high-quality wood. This project may not be completed for several months, so Chen Xiaogou asked his master from Shihan County to come over and build it.
Fu Xuanheng put his hand on his nose and chuckled:
"Of course the place where you live should be good."
Uncle Yun Jiu: .... All he needs to live in is a roof.
Uncle Yun Ba: .... We should ask the people from Yunjiazhuang to come over and see who is the one who is extravagant.
When they arrived here, Shen Yunyue ordered someone to call Grandpa Shen and the others over.
The two elderly people said they were having dinner alone, citing feeling unwell.
Shen Yunyue knew the personalities of the two elders in the Shen family.
So he asked someone to bring a pot of wine over.
Mu Ya, Ou Ruoyang and others brought the dishes over and filled the table.
Vinegar pork, chopped pepper fish head, seafood like crab, dendrobium, old duck and clam soup, braised pork and pheasant eggs, cold wolfberry leaves, pepper and salt spare ribs.
Each person received a bowl of fragrant glutinous rice.
The custom in Shihan Prefecture is that six dishes are unlucky.
There were basically six dishes served, and the portions of each dish were huge.
Fu Xuanheng personally poured wine for the head of the Lu family, Uncle Yun Ba, Uncle Yun Jiu, and Rong Ting.
He turned to look at Shen Yunyue, "Want a drink?"
"Have a drink." Shen Yunyue smelled the aroma of wine, and the glutton in her stomach couldn't resist it anymore.
"It's medicinal wine made from ninth-grade purple ginseng, and the water used isn't just ordinary water." Shen Yunyue didn't say much. With just one sentence, everyone except Fu Xuanheng picked up their cups and drank it in one gulp.
Fu Xuanheng:……
Shen Yunyue:……
"You don't have to be so aggressive. I still have two jars."
Uncle Yun Jiu likes to drink. He frowned and said:
"Yunyue, give one jar to your seventh uncle and one to Ye Cang. It's not worth it for us."
"Your uncle is right." Uncle Yun, who has always been a peaceful person, has also become worldly now.
Rong Ting picked up a piece of vinegar meat and said with a faint smile:
"Everyone who listens will have a share. Ye Cang has no less friendship with us than he does with Ye Cang."
The head of the Lu family didn't say anything, but raised his eyebrows as if to say: You guys can do whatever you want.
Shen Yunyue could only sigh:
"Okay, split it evenly. That's fine, right?"
The ninth-grade purple ginseng was enough to make enough wine, and she made several hundred kilograms of medicinal wine.
But things are valuable because they are rare, so Shen Yunyue naturally would not tell them the truth.
Uncle Yun Ba and Uncle Yun Jiu were eating chopped pepper fish head for the first time. It was so spicy that they almost stuck their tongues out; after all, it was their first time.
Much worse than Shen Yunyue and Fu Xuanheng.
The head of the Lu family took only one bite and then didn't dare to pick up his chopsticks.
"I'm an old man, but I don't have that kind of luck. I still think seafood is more delicious than crabs."
Shen Yunyue smiled and said, "Master Lu, I also like to eat seafood like crab with rice. You can try putting two spoonfuls on the rice."
The head of the Lu family did as he was told, and it really made people's mouths water.
Uncle Yun Ba and Uncle Yun Jiu have been growing up freely over the years.
The first few years were a torture of skin damage and running for one's life.
He settled down in Taiping Mountain, Shihan Prefecture.
I have to endure starting from nothing again.
Only when you grow up can you have enough to eat.
They initially went to steal from the homes of the people of Nanli and the homes of corrupt officials like Zhang Zhizhou.
I was beaten once, and if I hadn't been lucky enough to escape, I would have been beaten to death.
The money earned was basically used for the expenses of the entire Yunjiazhuang.
They look capable, but they actually don't have much money.
The clothes they wore were all washed very clean and had been worn for many years.
"My two dear nephews, how are your parents?" The head of the Lu family drank a glass of wine, smacked his lips, and looked satisfied.
"All our parents have passed away in that life." Uncle Yun's eyes were indifferent.
"Feel sorry."
"No problem."
"Master Lu, my eighth uncle and ninth uncle are not married yet. Look at their gray clothes, there must be no one to take care of the housework." Shen Yunyue wanted to let them get married.
"If there's anyone suitable, please keep an eye out for my eighth and ninth uncles."
Shen Yunyue ignored the two people's winks and said, "I am just a little old, but at this age, I can be caring."
The head of the Lu family understood what Shen Yunyue meant.
Uncle Yun Ba was as gentle as jade, but the sight of his iron hand frightened the girls.
Uncle Yun Jiu had a cold face that looked like he could beat someone to death at any time.
Why!
It’s such a difficult problem!
Unless you use money to throw directly at the other person's parents.
Mu Ya, who was standing aside, looked at Uncle Yun unconsciously, feeling distressed.
I thought to myself:
How come no one likes such a good person?
Looking at Uncle Yun Ba’s moon-white robe, the cuffs were frayed.
Mu Ya lowered her eyes, came to Shen Yunyue and bowed and whispered:
"Young Madam, can I make you some sobering soup?"
"Go ahead. Put some vinegar in it."
"Yes." Mu Yafu turned and left.
Patriarch Lu smiled and said:
"The eldest son of the Yang family has taught his daughter well. She will be a very qualified mistress of the family in the future."
"It all depends on her father's methods."
Rong Ting didn't understand, "What does her getting married have to do with her father?"
Shen Yunyue wiped her nose with a handkerchief. It had been a long time since she had eaten such spicy food.
"Her father is going to stir up trouble for the Yang family. If he succeeds, Mu Ya will also be a daughter of a wealthy family."
Rong Ting couldn't help but sigh:
"You all take one step and count a hundred steps."
"Shen Yunyue, the head of the family will probably reply in the next two days. When that happens, please take care of me."
"no problem."
Fu Xuanheng always took care of Shen Yunyue while she ate, picking up food for her, pouring soup for her, and picking out fish bones for her.
After dinner.
The dessert was served, which was glutinous rice cake, which Fu Xuanheng liked to eat.
Mochi made of soybean flour and sesame filling.
Before he could eat two, Yingfeng came leaping over from a few points in the east.
He came to Fu Xuanheng and lowered his voice:
"Master, Prince Rui and Prince Li have arrived from Yonghe Town. Also coming with them is Qian Daru's granddaughter, Li Weiyang."
Shen Yunyue couldn't help but frown.
"Li Weiyang is with them?"
Yingfeng nodded, “Miss Li came here on horseback wearing men’s clothing.
I see that Prince Li is very interested in Miss Li."
"Where are we?"
"We'll be at the village entrance in about an incense stick's time. Butcher Jiang said someone is asking how to get to Baijia Village."
"Well, go down."
Fu Xuanheng nodded and said coldly:
"We need to prepare the defenses for several villages. They won't live here until the road is repaired."
"Yingfeng, ask Jiang Chong to come back as soon as possible."
"yes."
Yingfeng responded and then turned and left.
Patriarch Lu was worried. "It's no good that these two are here. I'm afraid those old guys from the He family are going to cause trouble again."
"It's not just the old guy. The girls from the He family are going to have to deal with it too." Shen Yunyue sneered.
He Luxue was the first to make trouble.
