Chapter 1192 The Temptation of the Green Robe
Mrs. Liu quietly asked Yunyun to find out that Wang Yue, a distinguished guest of the Ye family, was staying with the eldest son of the Ye family. His status must be different, he seemed to be the son of the governor of Qingzhou.
Moreover, I heard from Yunyun that Wang Yue is still unmarried and still has feelings for her Liu Yuru, and he sent so many valuable medicinal materials to her when she was sick.
This made the eldest lady think.
Mrs. Liu was not optimistic about the affairs between the eldest son of the Ye family and Liu Yuru at all. She felt that the eldest son of Ye was probably just coveting Yuru's beauty.
After all, if the eldest son of the Ye family really has feelings for Yuru, his family, the two families are neighbors, and he should not let Mr. Liu bully their mother and daughter.
After all, the Liu family is a small businessman, while the Ye family is a Qingliu family!
At worst, Ye Shi'an would have to be like Wang Yue and express something, so that Mr. Liu would be afraid of Yuru or value Yuru.
But for so many years, because the eldest son was concerned about his Qingliu identity, he never offered any help, let alone any warning from Father Liu. Only the Ye family girl and his own girl were more lively.
They could advance, attack or retreat, and they were sure to defeat their family Yuru, which made her very worried about Liu Yuru's future.
After all, when Ye Shian comes back from the imperial examination, he will definitely be able to become an official in high school, and the gap between the two will be even greater. How can the Ye family, Ye Shian, the one whom the family focuses on cultivating, marry the daughter of a wealthy businessman? Where is the lady?
It’s almost like being a concubine!
As a mother, she naturally thought about her daughter. She felt that as long as her daughter was still near Yangzhou, she would be manipulated by Aunt Zhang.
She has seen Liu Yuru's difficulties at home over the years, but she is not in good health and has always been powerless. She does not want her daughter to stay here and be dragged down by her, and continue to be bullied by Master Liu.
It just so happened that Wang Yue was interested in Liu Yuru, and Qingzhou was neither far nor close, so he was the perfect candidate.
The eldest lady felt that as long as her Ru'er married, she would no longer be controlled by Liu's father.
Of course, she couldn't be said to be a big wife even if she was Wang Yue, but being a concubine to the governor's son who was more noble than Ye Shi'an was a hundred times better than being a granddaughter-in-law with strict family rules in these troubled times.
What the eldest lady didn't expect was that Wang Yue had disappeared from the courtyard just a few steps away, making her plan come to nothing.
...
Liu Yuru didn't know what her mother was thinking. She was a little panicked now, and her hand holding the scroll was shaking. She really didn't expect Aunt Zhang to come so quickly.
Aunt Zhang originally saw that there was no other abnormality in the courtyard, and she felt a little depressed. This mother and daughter were so sneaky, but they didn't do anything?
Seeing how nervous Liu Yuru was now, she immediately felt confident. So, she smiled and said to Liu Yuru, "Miss, what is that in your hand? Can you let me see it?"
Liu Yuru hurriedly hid the scroll behind her back and said nervously, "No, it's nothing!"
Aunt Zhang winked at her two daughters, and then said sternly, "It's nothing. You are still so nervous. Take it out and let me see. Is it the scroll that the master gave me?" She just said this
. After that, Liu Yuru's two concubines rushed forward, one on the left and the other on the right. Their maids fended off Yin Hong, and they took the opportunity to snatch the scroll out.
After the two little girls got the scroll, they handed it to Aunt Zhang like a treasure, and both turned back to glare at Liu Yuru.
Liu Yuru was so angry that she was jealous. She didn't expect Aunt Liu to bully others like this, which made her very angry, but she was alone and had no choice.
The eldest lady had already walked over at this time, but she didn't mean to stop him. She didn't expect that after Wang Yue left, there would be twists and turns.
The prince is wearing a cloak made by Yuru herself, and now he has also left a scroll, which can be regarded as a token of exchange.
However, she was still a little worried, wondering if she could win the bet this time?
And her only bet is that Wang Yue can take pity on their daughter.
However, she was afraid that she would not die soon, but she had to pave the way for her daughter before she died.
...
Aunt Zhang took a proud look at Liu Yuru when she got the scroll. She put it in front of her eyes and prepared to open it and take a look.
At this time, several more people came to the door of the garden, and the leader was Master Liu.
After he arrived, he said unhappily, "What are you doing today? You are making such a big fuss!"
Aunt Zhang saw that the scroll in her hand was more valuable and felt that the paintings inside might be more valuable, so she took advantage of it. In line with the principle, he hurriedly came to Mr. Liu and said in a gentle voice, "I don't know what I know. I finally got a painting. I didn't expect that since it is in the hands of the eldest girl, didn't I bring it here to get it?" ?"
After hearing what Aunt Zhang said, Mr. Liu took out the scroll from her hand and said with some suspicion, "Why are you buying the scroll when you are fine?"
Aunt Zhang didn't expect Mr. Liu to ask this, and she was a little stunned. After a moment, he quickly explained, "Isn't the eldest lady's birthday coming soon? I originally wanted to buy her a painting as a birthday gift, but I didn't expect that she couldn't wait so soon." Mr. Liu nodded
, Without thinking too much, he scolded Yuru, "I've reached the age of leaving the cabinet, but I'm still so ungrateful in doing things. I'll go to my room to think about my faults behind closed doors, and reflect on it." As he said this, he opened the door
. He just glanced at the scroll casually and looked at Aunt Zhang strangely.
Aunt Zhang felt a little uncomfortable when her master looked at me like this. She said timidly, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Mr. Liu never thought that Aunt Zhang would lie to him, so he asked again tentatively, "You You said you bought this scroll?"
Aunt Zhang immediately felt something was wrong, and she quickly changed her story and said, "I asked Yuzhao to go out and buy it, is there anything wrong?"
When Mr. Liu heard that Aunt Zhang was not lying to him, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Liu Yuzhao, "In the future, don't rely on your mother's rights to go to your sister to get things, and go back with your mother to be punished! "
After hearing what his father said, Liu Yuzhao quickly wanted to explain himself, but before he could speak, he was pushed by his sister Yuying.
Only then did she see the look in Aunt Zhang's eyes. She could only bow her head and accept the punishment, and followed Aunt Zhang away.
Liu Yuru didn't expect that her father was still thinking about her today, which made her feel that this might be a dream.
...
After Aunt Zhang left, Master Liu quickly said to the eldest lady and Liu Yuru's two maids, Yin Hong and Yunyun, "You two go and guard the door!"
Yin Hong and Yunyun each glanced at their master. , felt a little worried in their hearts, but they did not dare to offend the master for nothing, so they could only turn around and walk toward the entrance of the courtyard worriedly.
After all the servants left, only Mr. Liu and Madam Liu Yuru were left in the courtyard.
Mr. Liu then looked at Liu Yuru and said kindly, "Yuru, did the prince say when he would come to propose marriage?" The reason why he took care of
Liu Yuru like this today was because he had just seen the scroll. The man on the scroll.
He had met this man once, at the gate of the Ye family next door. The arrogant Butler Ye personally picked him up.
Looking at Butler Ye's respectful attitude and his shrewd mind, he could tell that Wang Yue's identity was extraordinary.
Thinking that he had heard people say that the Ye family had a prince from Qingzhou as a guest, he thought it was probably that young prince.
At this moment, he unexpectedly saw a scroll depicting Wang Yue and his daughter's bridal chamber with flowers and candles. The focus was still on the appearance of being married, which made him a little moved.
So the reason why the Gu family can sit as the richest man in Jiangnan is because of their strong background?
If he can get on the big ship of Qingzhou, he might make the Liu family rich in the future.
Because of this thought, he rarely favored Aunt Zhang and asked Liu Yuru patiently like a father.
Liu Yuru was very happy because of her father's change in attitude, but not long after she was happy, she heard what her father said, which suddenly made him sober.
It turned out that the reason why his father was so kind to him was just because he saw that she seemed to be hooking up with Wang Yue.
Although she felt a little disappointed, she was not very sad. After all, she shouldn't have any hope.
It's just that she wanted to marry into the Ye family so that she could take care of her mother more easily, so she quickly shook her head and said, "Dad, I have nothing to do with that prince. Please don't get me wrong." Dad Liu listened
. After saying this, his originally happy face immediately turned gloomy. He threw the scroll into the eldest lady's arms and snorted coldly, "Look at the good daughter you taught. She has already had sex with someone, and she even said It doesn't matter!"
After the eldest lady got the scroll, she opened it and took a look at it discreetly. She found that Yuru in the scroll was actually wearing the eldest lady's wedding dress, and she was relieved.
She quickly comforted Father Liu and said, "Sir, you asked such a direct question. How can Yuru, a daughter of a family, answer this? Why don't you go back and rest first, and let Yuru and I find out clearly before we report back to you?" Father Liu listened
. When the eldest lady said this, she glanced at Liu Yuru again and realized that her daughter's face was as red as a monkey's butt. He felt that it was inappropriate for a father to ask such a question, so he snorted and walked out of the garden.
After Father Liu left, Mrs. Liu took Liu Yuru's little hand and returned to the pavilion. After letting Liu Yuru sit down, she asked softly, "Ru'er, what do you think about this? "
After Liu Yuru heard this, she said a little tangledly, "Mom, of course it is my parents who make the decision on this kind of thing. What can I think?" After hearing Liu Yuru's words, Mrs.
Liu knew that her girl had a crush on Ye. The eldest son of the family was not deeply in love, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
She considered her words for a moment, and then said leisurely, "I know what you are thinking. You just want to marry closer so that you can take care of me more easily. In fact, you don't have to." Liu Yuru saw the eldest lady saying this to her, and
she She said with some sadness, "Mother, it's not like this. The boy next to Mr. Ye has spread the word, saying that when Mr. Ye comes back from high school, he will come to ask for his hand in marriage." Seeing that her daughter was stubborn, Mrs. Liu quickly reminded
her He said, "Have you ever thought about it? Except for the children of poor families or who are not favored, which noble family is willing to marry a businessman? No matter how satisfied Mr. Ye is with you, can he be the master?" Listen to
yourself When her mother said this, Liu Yuru immediately understood something, but she was still a little entangled and said, "But brother Shi'an is a gentleman and will not break his word!" Mrs. Liu trimmed Liu Yuru's temples
. Her hair was messy, and then she sighed and said, "He will come to ask for marriage, but it is very likely that he will be just a concubine. Are you willing?" Liu Yuru was stunned for a long time. She wanted to say no, but
she Thinking that although my Aunt Zhang is a concubine, she is favored by her father and takes care of the family's middle child. In fact, she is almost like a eldest lady.
She gritted her teeth and said with some reluctance, "As long as I can make brother Shi'an really like me..."
But before she finished speaking, Mrs. Liu quickly stopped and said, "Don't think of Ye Shi'an as your Dad, don’t forget the majesty of the old lady of the Ye family. You have also been to the Ye family, their concubine. How is she doing? You should know in your heart. When the time comes, don’t say you want to help me. You can’t even leave the back house. It's all very difficult."
Liu Yuru didn't expect that her mother would say this, but she had no way to refute, so she said in a low voice, "You can ask Brother Shi'an for help then, it's better than now." Mrs. Liu took the
photo He patted Liu Yuru's little hand, and then said with a cold reminder, "Don't forget, has Ye Shi'an helped us over the years? He wants to pursue an official career. He cherishes his feathers the most and will never behave like a concubine. Why don't you understand the matter of killing your wife?"
Liu Yuru was already confused at this moment, and she said reluctantly, "What if?"
Mrs. Liu sighed, and then said leisurely, "There is no such thing as a chance. I think you should know it in your heart after so many years. In the past, you had no other choice and my mother didn't say much. Now that the prince is interested in you, Why are you still stubborn?"
Liu Yuru didn't expect that her mother still knew this, so she also said tangledly, "Then the prince's status is probably not low, won't he still be a concubine in the end?" Mrs. Liu looked at the hand in her hand
. The scroll, pointing to the clothes inside, smiled and said to Liu Yuru, "This scroll is the promise that the prince made to you. Which concubine have you seen wearing a green robe?" Liu Yuru was still a little confused when the eldest lady said this
. She said, "But, Qingzhou is too far away."
Mrs. Liu smiled happily. She knew that her daughter was worried about her, so she quickly said soothingly, "Not to mention that we only have a few days to go to Qingzhou by water. Your father is also a businessman, and he has no choice but to move to Qingzhou to do business. Do you still have to worry about this?"
It has to be said that Mrs. Liu successfully persuaded Liu Yuru. She said with some tangle, "But, but that Wang The young master may not be able to make the decision!"
Mrs. Liu smiled and said seriously, "That is the matter of the prince. If he cannot make the decision, we will not agree to his proposal."
Liu Yuru looked at it When the eldest lady said this, she nodded shyly and said in a voice like a mosquito, "It all depends on mother."
She thought her mother was right. If her father moved to Qingzhou to do business, it might be better than Yangzhou. Better, in that case, it would be considered as cutting off Aunt Zhang's help, and it would also make it easier for her mother to regain control of the Liu family.
The reason why she was convinced so quickly was not only because of the eldest lady's analysis, but also because of the heart of these heavenly kings, which moved her a little.
You know, the medicinal materials delivered these days actually cured his mother's illness in just two or three days. This shows that Wang Yue must have checked what kind of illness her mother had and then prescribed the right medicine.
If the medicine is so effective, it must have been done carefully, and Wang Yue's intention was also there.
A woman's marriage is equivalent to her second reincarnation, so she has to be careful. Wang Yue treats her mother with such care. He must be in love with his mother, and he must be so meticulous.
