Chapter 309 Are you henpecked or don't want to borrow!
The sound of the weeping suona and the voices of the people bidding farewell weave a sad chorus.
It was Ningguo Hou who pushed Wei Zhao away, but now he has been replaced by the diligent Xiao Huaiyan.
Wei Zhao was listless and ignored him.
It's not as strict here as in the palace, and no one cares if you speak in a low voice.
Xiao Huaiyan pushed slower and slower, allowing others to pass him. After all, there's no need to be too active in a funeral.
"I don't want much, just give me five hundred taels to help me out."
Wei Zhao lowered his eyes and said lightly: "If you do what your parents want and settle the marriage before the New Year, they won't let the accountant cut off your monthly salary."
"That's easy to say!"
Xiao Huaiyan was annoyed.
"Can I spoil them?"
"After getting married, you have to start a career. How can I have that ability? There are more restrictions, and I have to have children. Why should I bang my head against the wall when I can't live a good life? I can't let a good girl live a muddled life with me."
Wei Zhao lowered his eyes. How
could Xiao Huaiyan be incompetent?
He is just pretending to be ignorant.
His father, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, has military power, but his foundation is not stable. He won it by resisting foreign enemies on the border with his uncle!
The Shunguo Mansion is stable, but what will be the end? If Xiao Huaiyan realizes his ambition, he will be targeted by Emperor Ying Qian.
Wei Zhao raised his eyes when Yu Tingwan came over.
"Come closer."
Yu Tingwan looked at Wei Zhao, then at Xiao Huaiyan.
"I..."
Yu Tingwan: "Did I disturb you?"
Wei Zhao was silent for a moment, then laughed angrily: "Is there anything shameful between me and Prince Xiao?"
Yu Tingwan said slowly: "It's hard to say. When it comes to money, it's always dirty."
Xiao Huaiyan was shocked: ? ? ?
No, is this how you and your wife talk?
For a moment, he thought Yu Tingwan was here to catch an adulterer.
Wei Zhao glanced at him, his tone flat: "If you want to borrow money to find my wife, you have to get a clear answer from her about the whereabouts of the money in the family."
Xiao Huaiyan: ? ?
These words really didn't sound like something Wei Zhao would say.
In the past, when he asked someone to lend him money, there would only be two responses.
- Are you dreaming again? Do you think I'm your bread and butter?
- Okay, just do this for me, and I'll treat it as your reward.
Xiao Huaiyan looked at Wei Zhao deeply.
Are you henpecked, or do you just don't want to lend!
Money, such a big thing, is actually in the hands of a woman?
How can a grown man
like him have the nerve to ask Yu Tingwan? If it were someone else, Yu Tingwan would definitely be stingy and quibble, but this person was the county magistrate Xiao in his previous life.
It was different.
She was easy to talk to, and she nodded without Xiao Huaiyan asking.
"Okay."
Wei Zhao:?
Xiao Huaiyan:? ?
Wei Zhao thought she didn't know how much she was borrowing: "Five hundred taels, it's not a small amount."
Yu Tingwan said gently: "I know. But Prince Xiao is not someone else."
Xiao Huaiyan:? ! !
Wei Zhao didn't know if he was being manipulated. But he was being manipulated thoroughly.
He couldn't even believe that this was real.
Happiness came too fast.
Ning Yunling:? ? ?
So it can be done this way!
Ning Yunling, who had previously despised Xiao Huaiyan, looked at Yu Tingwan with a strange look in her eyes and hurried over.
"Sister-in-law."
Yu Tingwan: "No."
Ning Yunling couldn't believe it: "I haven't said anything yet."
Yu Tingwan: "You have no place, don't join in the fun."
"My uncle and aunt are reasonable, and my grandmother is also a kind person. As long as you don't cause trouble outside, they won't treat you harshly in terms of money."
Ning Yunling was unwilling.
"Xiao Huaiyan has no money, isn't it also..."
Getting into trouble?
Before she finished speaking.
The girl was sincere: "He is in trouble, and we should help him."
Ning Yunling:? ? ?
Xiao Huaiyan: !!!
"I will remember this kindness!"
Xiao Huaiyan said a lot of nice things: "No wonder they say you should marry a virtuous wife. With your generosity, it's no wonder Wei Zhao likes you."
Yu Tingwan sighed sincerely: "Prince Xiao is also loyal and righteous."
Wei Zhao narrowed his eyes.
Yu Tingwan and Xiao Huaiyan didn't know each other before.
The girl is generous, unlike her.
There was a flash of emotion in his eyes, and he looked at Xiao Huaiyan carefully.
Not burly.
Not dark.
But shameless.
Wei Zhao was relieved.
The road is wide, but long.
Fortunately, we walked slowly, otherwise some officials and women who have been pampered and exhausted these days would not be able to keep up.
After leaving the city gate, we headed towards the imperial mausoleum.
Yao Ru, the second prince's wife, was originally in the front, but she walked slowly. She didn't want to see the tension between the ninth princess and the fifth prince's wife, so she gradually fell behind.
Fortunately, the funeral procession was not so strict. There was a maid supporting her by her side.
The maid Xunzhu has been serving her since she was a child, and the friendship between the two is not an ordinary master-servant relationship.
Xunzhu's eyes were full of heartache: "Miss, you went back last night and your head was bleeding. When you gave birth, you almost lost half your life. The imperial physician said that you should rest. But now you are going through another ordeal. Not only have you lost weight, but your body is also going to collapse."
Yao Ru smiled, and her smile was light and shallow.
"It's okay."
Xunzhu: "It is said that mother and child are connected by heart. The young master may also feel sorry for you. He always cries heartbreakingly when he can't see you during the day. He only eats a few mouthfuls of milk from the wet nurse when he is hungry. Only when you go back every time can you coax him well."
Yao Ru looked dazed: "After all, he stayed in my belly. Besides you, he is the only one who feels sorry for me now."
Xunzhu frowned.
"You are wrong. Miss is the daughter of the Yao family, and your family will love you after all."
Yao Ru shook his head.
He laughed at her for being too naive.
Xunzhu: "I saw the master and his wife, right behind us."
Just as she was happy, the Yao family also saw them.
Mrs. Yao's eyes were wet, and she didn't know whether she was crying for the crown prince or for her tortured daughter.
She walked forward worriedly.
"Your son."
"My son, seeing you like this, your heart is like a knife."
"I have a few hundred-year-old ginsengs, I'll have someone send them to you later."
Lord Yao followed and scolded his wife.
"Don't you see what kind of occasion this is?"
The voices here were drowned out by the suona next to them.
Yu Tingwan and his group couldn't hear it.
But they had eyes.
Xiao Huaiyan sighed: "This Yao family is not a human being. I'm afraid they will bully their daughter who married out again. The man is unreliable, and her family doesn't protect her. Life is not easy."
He didn't say much.
But Yu Tingwan couldn't help wanting to hear it.
Ning Yunling beside him sighed.
Yu Tingwan: "What's wrong?"
Ning Yunling: "It really hurts me to see her suffer."
I didn't expect Ning Yunling to be so kind and couldn't bear to see the sufferings of the world.
Yu Tingwan was about to be relieved.
Tan Jiang came over: "Madam, among the bunch of love locks that the cousin hung in Changdu Temple, there was the Second Prince's Consort."
Yu Tingwan: ...
Tan Jiang saw that Yu Tingwan's eyes occasionally fell towards Yao Ru, so she told him everything she knew: "The Second Prince's Consort used to be very glorious."
"She was spotted by Princess Yan at the age of eight, and she said that this child was pleasing to her eyes."
"When she was ten years old, the two families got engaged. Princess Yan often took her to her house to raise her for a few days."
Who wouldn't envy Yao Ru's good fortune back then?
