Chapter 384: The eldest sister-in-law supports the family (10)
It is the custom of Da Rong that the bride returns home with her new husband three days after her wedding. Naturally, Shi Yi, who is married, must also abide by it.
Wei Yang and she took a sedan chair to Gu Yushi's house. Gu Yushi and his family were already waiting at the door.
Gu Changheng had a calm expression on his face. Yang Yonghua and her three daughters, however, had some disappointment in their eyes. Now everyone knows that the Wei Mansion is in ruins, but he dared to come back.
"Daddy." Shi Yi bowed. Wei Yang next to him also called out: "Father-in-law."
As for the three sisters and Yang Yonghua next to them, they both pretended not to see it.
"Hey, you two, are you blind or what?" The second young lady of the Gu Mansion started to make a fuss.
"Fu'er, don't be rude. These are your sister and brother-in-law." Gu Changheng scolded in a low voice, but everyone knew that there was no deterrent power in his words.
The second young lady of the Gu Mansion curled her lips and walked in first without caring about etiquette.
Yang Yonghua and the remaining two daughters stood in neat rows, waiting for them to go in.
"My dear son-in-law, please come in." Gu Changheng made an inviting gesture, and after a brief greeting, the two walked side by side.
Shi Yi fell behind Wei Yang, deliberately waiting for Yang Yonghua to come up, and said respectfully: "Mother, I came back this time to ask you for something."
Yang Yonghua looked up at her, and said with a fake smile: "How dare you say that, young lady, there is no need to say 'please' or 'no' for family members."
In front of outsiders, Shi Yi was willing to give her this face, so he deliberately slapped his own face and said embarrassedly: "I know that mother has daughters in her heart. I just don't know if mother is too busy to forget to give me the indenture of Yue'er, my maidservant who came with the dowry."
Yang Yonghua originally thought that she was going to do something, but it was just a maidservant's indenture, so she would just give it to her.
She chuckled and said, "It is indeed my fault. I will ask the housekeeper to give it to you later."
"Thank you, mother." Shi Yi bowed and caught up with Wei Yang and Gu Changchang.
"Mother, why did you just give her the maid's indenture contract so casually! With the indenture contract, we can do many things." In front of the housekeeper, the third daughter said bluntly.
Yang Yonghua winked at her, but she was still unaware.
"Mother, in my opinion, we can't give it to you."
"Enough." Yang Yonghua interrupted her and hurried forward.
The housekeeper still followed the two young ladies of the Gu family slowly, watching their noses and noses. It was as if he didn't hear their previous conversation.
In the study.
Gu Changchang, Wei Yang, and Shi Yi sat opposite each other.
The clear tea was lingering, and the whole study was filled with the reassuring smell of tea.
"Father, today your daughter is here to discuss important matters with you." Shi Yi spoke first.
Gu Changchang lifted the teacup and slowly scraped off the foam on it with the lid, ignoring her words.
Shi Yi was not angry, and continued: "Father insisted on this marriage with the Wei family. Wasn't it waiting for today?"
The atmosphere became tense. Wei Yang coughed twice and said: "Thanks to the kindness of my father-in-law, I can marry a virtuous wife like Shi Yi. But my Wei family has suffered such a disaster. I am young and ignorant and weak. I really don't know where to start. I hope you can give me some advice."
Gu Changchang did not look at him, but at his daughter.
This daughter who had never been close to him.
His eyes were cold, as if he was recalling, and as if he was just looking at her.
He was wondering how his daughter had captured the heart of her husband in such a short time. Now, she has become a "virtuous wife".
"Father, why do you look at me like this?" Shi Yi did not hide or avoid, and looked over to meet his gaze.
"Grown up." Gu Changchang said such a meaningful sentence.
Shi Yi smiled and did not respond, but Wei Yang felt that the relationship between the father and daughter was strange. Gu Changchang, the Censor Gu, did not seem to be as indifferent to his eldest daughter as rumored.
"Father-in-law, can I ask for your advice on the current situation of my Wei family?" He spoke again, with a more sincere attitude.
"Don't worry. Just live your life peacefully." Gu Changchang drank the tea in the cup, but said no more.
Emperor Chunde has decided to lightly disclose this matter, and the prince also intends to take it lightly. The two sides have reached an agreement in secret. It's just a pity for Wei Yang, the Marquis of Wei, who is already old and is still used as a bargaining chip. It's only a matter of time before he comes out. For such a big thing, we must give some time to find a scapegoat for the poor performance.
I think Wei Yang in the prison of Dongdu also knows the inside story, otherwise his subordinates would not have discovered that he has gained some weight when they visited him in prison yesterday.
Before returning to Gu Mansion, Shi Yi was still a little worried, but now after hearing Gu Changchang's words, he felt relieved. The same was true for Wei Yang.
After lunch, Shi Yi and Wei Yang started to rush to Wei Mansion. Back to the courtyard, he saw Wei Yin still standing stupidly at the door, waiting for Shi Yi to come back.
"Sister-in-law, you're back. Do you know that I have been waiting for you here for a long time, and have been looking forward to you and your elder brother coming back." Seeing Shi Yi, Wei Yin immediately regained his spirit and trotted over, but was frightened away by Wei Yang's eyes. He stopped abruptly, and the words in his mouth were cut off.
"Haven't you had breakfast yet?" Shi Yi looked at this little adult with pretended seriousness, and was about to lecture him. He immediately refuted himself, "I was very good today. I ate as soon as I got up. Sister Yue'er told me a long time ago that you had to go back to the Gu Mansion."
Shi Yi quickly glanced at Yue'er, who blushed and quickly lowered her head, stammering, "I was also afraid that the Second Young Master would be hungry." What she didn't say was that the Second Young Master was cautious and straightforward. If no one told him, he would have been waiting at the door. That would be so distressing.
"Hahahaha", Wei Yang suddenly laughed out loud, leaving the other three present confused.
"Husband, what are you doing?" Shi Yi cast a puzzled look at him, waiting for his answer.
"Nothing, I just want to laugh." Wei Yang touched his nose and felt that his action just now was a little inappropriate. But he couldn't help but feel happy. Compared with the past, the present life is naturally more desirable.
With his lovely wife by his side, his younger brother, who has always been not very close to him, also began to run to his yard, waiting for his father to come out, so that the family can live happily together.
It's just a pity that ideas are always beautiful, but reality is always cruel.
