Chapter 258: Send It Out
When Xiao Yan and Lu Qiniang came back, Duke Yun also came.
Xiao Yan persuaded him.
Yun Ting ignored Duke Yun at first, but after a while, his crying could be heard from the room.
Lu Qiniang said, "Yun Ting has really been wronged this time. Xiao Yan, how did you convince the Duke? It had to be you."
"I didn't say anything. I just told him that the princess was watching from heaven and that she must be anxious to comfort her child, but she couldn't do it."
"Ah." Lu Qi Niang sighed, "A child without a mother."
In fact, Xiao Yan said a lot more.
For example, he reminded Duke Yun who would benefit if this matter became a hot topic.
Although Duke Yun didn't say anything, his complicated expression told Xiao Yan that he understood.
In fact, Duke Yun should have noticed something without Xiao Yan's reminder.
It's just that he doesn't want to believe and accept it.
Because all along, he didn't dare to say that he treated his two nephews like their biological father, but he tried his best.
result……
Human greed is insatiable.
Duke Yun even understood what Yun Rui wanted.
It’s nothing more than the title of Duke of Guofu.
"Ting'er, do you understand now what's going on?" Duke Yun looked at his son with red eyes.
Yun Ting lowered his eyes, his long and curly eyelashes hiding the emotions in his eyes.
He twitched his lips. "I'm a loser, blocking other people's paths. If I keep being useless, maybe I can maintain the status quo for a little longer. I want to make progress, and some people can't sit still. Only by ruining my reputation can they have a chance."
It's the same principle as doing business.
The same business, one side grows while the other side declines.
There is only one title of Duke, and if he takes it, no one else will have it.
He used to think it was natural, but now think about it, how could others not be tempted by such fat meat?
Duke Yun nodded, "You have grown up."
"I know what happened, but that doesn't mean I agree with your approach." Yun Ting said, "Shiyu is very good, and I didn't do anything wrong. She didn't deserve to die, and I shouldn't be wronged. The reputation of the Duke's Mansion is not that valuable. Whoever made the mistake should take responsibility."
"Okay." Duke Yun said with difficulty, "Dad will go back and investigate. I'll give you an explanation."
"Whether I confess or not, it doesn't matter. I'm thick-skinned anyway, and in a few years, people will forget about this. But Shiyu is dead, Dad, that's a living life! You hit me, I'm your son, even if you hit me wrongly, I should bear it. But Dad, in my heart, you are not a person who takes human life lightly. What do those old servants in the Duke's Mansion think of us?"
"I know," Yun Ting said with tears in his eyes, "you have a deep affection for your uncle. He is indeed a good man, but that is no excuse for you to indulge his son."
"Perhaps, perhaps we misunderstood." Duke Yun said, "Check, let me check again. But Yun Ting, Dad believes you, Dad doesn't think it was you who did it. It's just—"
"It's just that you're angry, so you can only direct it at me. Dad, I won't say anything to you, but if I become a father in the future, I won't be like this. I want to be a parent like Qi Niang."
"Zhuozhuo said that she loves beauty and is very picky, but when someone in the Zhou residence falsely accused her of stealing, Qi Niang denied it. Qi Niang said that she knew her child. If it was really Zhuozhuo who did it, she could do whatever she wanted to her; but if it wasn't Zhuozhuo, those people had to admit their mistake to Zhuozhuo."
"Dad, I really envy Zhuozhuo. If my mother were alive, would she protect me like that?"
"Yes, she will." Duke Yun burst into tears.
"I know she would. Because Dad would consider the Duke's Mansion and weigh the pros and cons, but Mom wouldn't. Mom doesn't want her son to be wronged."
Duke Yun staggered as he walked.
Erya couldn't help but say to Yun Ting, "What did you say to the Duke? Why is he so distraught?"
"If you don't give him some strong medicine, he won't be willing to deal with it fairly." Yun Ting said quietly.
Yun Ting like this made Erya feel unfamiliar and a little scared.
"Come on, help me make the flower ornaments," she said. "There are only a few days left, and we're so slow. Only my eldest sister and father are good at it, but mother can't. I'm also slow, so come and help me."
"good."
During dinner that evening, Lu Qiniang said, "I was too busy today. I had thought of asking Master Jiang to bring some oranges back to Miss Jiang, but I forgot."
"Mom, it's not like I haven't eaten tangerines before," Erya said. "The Jiang family is a wealthy family. They have everything. Why would they be thinking about your tangerines?"
When visiting wealthy families, they would send baskets of oranges as gifts.
The few tangerines that Lu Qiniang got were divided among each family.
Poor families naturally regard it as a good thing.
But for a wealthy family, it is obviously not good enough.
Lu Qiniang said, "No matter how much it is, it's our intention, and that's all we can do. If they really despise it, we can just stop interacting with them. We can't stop expressing our feelings just because we're poor."
No matter how much stuff you have, the thought behind it is equally precious.
Yun Ting shoveled rice into his mouth, "Abandoned Mother, I'm giving you a jade pendant. You have to accept it. It's a token of my love. After all, my family is rich and wealthy, so I don't need any money."
He said with a smile, "It will be given to Zhuozhuo as a dowry in the future."
He thought that since he had brought the jade pendant out, he had to give it away.
Erya didn't dare to accept it, so she gave it to Lu Qiniang and designated it for Erya.
"Zhao Zhao, I have prepared a dowry for you, but I haven't brought it out yet. I'll go back and bring it to you in a few days."
"Thank you." Daya smiled gently.
"No thanks, I'm your uncle after all!"
Arya: "Eat your meal!"
Lu Qiniang accepted the jade pendant, thinking that she would return it to Yun Ting when he returned home.
Before going to bed, Lu Qiniang said to Xiao Yan, "I think Yun Ting is fine now. The way he looked when he first arrived really scared me."
"He's open-minded and understands some things." Xiao Yan said, "We shouldn't worry about this matter. The Duke will make arrangements."
"What will happen if it is really found out that it was done by the eldest wife?" Lu Qiniang asked curiously.
"It won't matter, because the old ancestor is still alive, and the reputation of the Duke's Mansion is still there. At most, we can give some silver to the maid's family to keep them quiet, and then the Duke will know what's going on and gradually distance himself from his nephew."
"That's it?"
"Um."
"That maid's mother accepted money to frame her own daughter, but in the end the money ended up in her hands. It's really unfair."
Xiao Yan sighed.
"I can't do it." Lu Qiniang said, "I'm too serious. Maybe because I'm too serious, I'm just an ordinary person, a piece of mud that can't be helped."
"You're going to say again that you're not worthy of me and want me to find a noble lady, right?" Xiao Yan's eyes were deep.
Lu Qiniang: “…”
How come you learned to interrupt her?
