She was angry at her useless father and brother. She was bullied like this, and they came to see her, bringing delicious food, drinks and fun things to coax her, but no one wanted to help her punish He Qing.
Now, the child Xuanyuan Huaiyu, who had once followed her lead, had grown up, and the unforgettable warmth in his heart seemed no longer exclusive to her. Perhaps mixed with a heavy sense of indebtedness towards Wang Xipei, that feeling was even stronger.
At first, he went to find Wang Xipei, but he kept it a secret from her. Later, when he couldn't hide it anymore, he said that he couldn't bear the loss of this man, and since Wang Xipei had been suicidal and wanted to divorce him, he wanted to take her back as a concubine, and just make her submit like before. He would let Wang Xipei serve him as his mistress.
But the more Ren Jiayu looked at it, the more he felt that this was not the case. Now, after several years, he still couldn't let it go.
Ren Jiayu thought dejectedly that she had always been winning, but also always losing.
Sun Yannan had already sent someone back to Kyoto to purchase a house. When Shi Yue was in the Hanlin Academy, Mrs. Shi had bought a three-story courtyard in Kyoto for her grandson. They had stayed there when they occasionally came to Beijing for a short stay, but now it was obviously not enough.
Sun Yanan's parents were also helping to look at houses. According to their opinion, they would buy another three-courtyard house with an attached cross-courtyard and a garden next to the three-courtyard house. It would be big enough.
But the servants sent by Sun Yanan hesitated and said it was too small after seeing it. Sun Yanan's parents didn't know what kind of house Sun Yanan lived in Pingchang County. It was still small even at this size.
Fearing that Sun Yannan would become too prominent, he wrote to him, advising him not to be too ostentatious in Kyoto, not to show off, and to keep a low profile. Even Zhang Guanghe, a favorite of the emperor and a close minister, lived in a small house with his family of four...
Sun Yannan wrote back to say he understood, and Lord Sun felt relieved. Then the servants sent by his two daughters came to inform him of the new address and that the house had been bought.
It was the house that was confiscated and then sold after the execution of Duke Fuguo Luo Rui. The two servants said, "After looking around, this is the only one that's okay."
This is just ok.
Lord Sun: ...
Is that okay? It's way too big. And isn't that house big, ostentatious, and unlucky?
After a while, he said, "Did you ask your master before buying it?"
The two servants said, "We have reported everything about this house to the young lady. She replied, 'Buy it!'"
Lord Sun had no choice but to write a letter full of worry.
Sun Yannan replied that the house was large, well-located, and had a beautiful interior layout and scenery, all at a reasonable price. Furthermore, it was being sold by the Ministry of Revenue, making it very reliable and secure. If he bought it himself, the money would go into the national treasury, which would also be considered helping the country.
After reading the letter, Lord Sun almost lost his temper. He was so elegant and refined that he thought, "God is sharing the country's worries."
The last sentence is the truth: my daughter just wants to live in a bigger and more comfortable place.
