Dongyang County was the most famous county in the Jin Dynasty.
Dongyang County is famous not because of its merits, but because it produced a great honest official and a loyal minister.
This man was not only honest and upright himself, but he also raised his son and grandson to be honest and upright officials.
This person is none other than Yun Deren, the Minister of Rites of the Jin Dynasty.
The Yun family had already moved to the capital long ago.
Six years ago, the Yun family suddenly sent back a concubine.
It is said that this concubine made a mistake, and Madam Yun sent her back to her hometown to reflect on her actions.
The concubine gave birth to a daughter a few months after returning home.
People say that this child is probably not from the Yun family. They say the Yun family is kind-hearted and can't bear to kill, so they sent the mother and child back to their hometown.
For the past two years, the concubine and the little girl have been hiding in the Yun family's ancestral home and have not left.
Just when people had almost forgotten about the mother and daughter, they went out.
He did something big as soon as he stepped out the door.
The Yun family used to be small landlords.
When the Yun family moved to the capital, they entrusted all the land in their ancestral home to the clan head, instructing him to use the income from the land to support the village school. If there was any surplus, he was to help the neighbors.
Over the years, Chief Yun has done a very good job.
However, as soon as the mother and daughter came out, they took back the Yun family's land from the Yun clan leader!
Everyone felt indignant on behalf of Chief Yun, saying that the mother and daughter had no right to do such a thing.
But Chief Yun said that the three-year-old girl was a young lady of the Yun family, and that those lands should have been managed by that little girl in the first place. He said that he had voluntarily returned those lands to the little girl.
Since he's already said that, no one else can say anything.
In addition, the mother and daughter did not care about the village school or their neighbors.
So, people gradually accepted it.
Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
For the past three years, the mother and daughter have lived a very happy life.
And so, Miss Yun went to the county town for fun again with her entourage.
The villagers have gotten used to it.
However, upon seeing Miss Yun's entourage, the villagers couldn't help but start gossiping:
"Miss Yun is really brave."
"Yes. My dog, Gou Dan, was clamoring for meat yesterday, but he stopped when I told him that Miss Yun's attendants had arrived."
“I also use this trick to scare my son Zhuzi. Tell me, where did Aunt Feng find these two people? One looks like a bandit, and the other looks like a ghost.”
"It shouldn't be her who hired them. I think she's a bit afraid of those two people."
"Who found them? Lord Yun and the others wouldn't use people like that. Those two don't look like good people at all."
"Do you think it was that little girl's biological father who found her?"
"Biological father? Didn't Clan Chief Yun say that Miss Yun is a child of the Yun family?"
"Why doesn't the Yun family take her back to the capital?"
“My mother-in-law said that Miss Yun looks somewhat like Madam Yun.”
“My mother-in-law said it didn’t look like it. She said that the child didn’t look like a member of the Yun family at all, and that the Yun family didn’t have that kind of spirit in the child.”
"What's the big deal?"
“My mother-in-law couldn’t explain it either. Anyway, she just said that the child didn’t look like a member of the Yun family.”
"Is your mother-in-law saying this because when you went to beg Aunt Feng last time, she didn't give you any money?"
“My mother-in-law is not that kind of person.”
...
Everyone thought today would be just another ordinary day.
Unexpectedly, around noon, Yun Yuqi, the third young master of the Yun family, returned.
How many years has it been since the Yun family returned?
The villagers started talking again:
"Tell me, what did the third young master of the Yun family come back for?"
"Did they come back to pick up Aunt Feng? Aunt Feng seems to be the Third Young Master's concubine."
"If Aunt Feng leaves, will the Yun family's lands return to the Yun clan chief's control?"
"Is that even a question? Of course it is."
"So, that child really is a child of the Yun family?"
"Definitely. Otherwise, why would Chief Yun return those lands to her?"
...
At the Yun family ancestral home, Aunt Feng panicked the moment she learned that Yun Yuqi had returned! "Quick! Go and call Sisi back! Quick!"
It's normal for the father to call his daughter back when he arrives.
The servant didn't think much of it. "Yes, sir, I'll go and bring the young lady back right away."
After saying that, the servant quickly left.
He had just left when Yun Yuqi arrived.
Aunt Feng was so nervous that she was sweating. "You...you've come? Please sit down, I...um...I'll make you some tea."
Yun Yuqi's expression was grim. "Where's the child?"
"She's gone to play. I've already sent someone to fetch her. Please sit down, I'll make you some tea."
"No need, you can go now."
"Yes." Aunt Feng quickly left.
Yun Yuqi's servant was somewhat surprised. Didn't Aunt Feng used to be reluctant to leave whenever she saw the Third Young Master? Why was she leaving so quickly this time? Could it be that Aunt Feng no longer liked the Third Young Master?
Yun Yuqi's personal attendant was named Mozhu.
Mo Zhu and the Third Young Master both thought that when Aunt Feng said "went to play," she meant she went to play in the village.
Unexpectedly, they waited for half an hour but the person still hadn't returned.
Yun Yuqi was already in a bad mood, and this made it even worse. "Go ask why the child hasn't come back yet?"
"yes."
Mo Zhu wanted to go and ask Aunt Feng, and also see if Aunt Feng disliked the Third Young Master.
As a result, Aunt Feng actually went to dig wild vegetables for the Third Young Master!
Mo Zhu had no choice but to ask others. Only then did she learn that when Aunt Feng said "went to play," she meant she went to the county town.
Yun Yuqi wanted to get up and leave when she found out, but...
More than an hour later, Sisi returned.
When Sisi returned, she didn't greet anyone or bow to Yun Yuqi; she just stared at Yun Yuqi.
