Chapter 92
Chapter 88:
Consort House.
Tang Yu Nianxin strode into the room, and several people were standing in the room. Some looked at her nervously, and some looked at the furnishings in the room. Tang Yunian first noticed the little boy hiding behind a woman, his eyes were timid, but he tried to see himself clearly.
“I haven’t seen you for many years, I really don’t know what to call it,” Tang Yunian said with a smile, “The visitor is a guest, Qiuyue, serving tea.”
The person who claimed to be Er Auniang just now made a smile, “Yu Nian, you really added glory to the Tang family.” She looked around, her intentions barely concealed, “You are really promising for raising your younger brother and sister, and you can enjoy happiness.”
“My mother has worked hard all these years for me,” Tang Yunian smiled lightly, “I am today thanks to my mother, so I naturally have to serve my mother well and not let her work hard.”
“Yes.” Second Uncle agreed, “If you are not filial, you will be struck by lightning. You are a child of the Tang family, and your father is filial, and so will you.”
Tang Bai is very filial, but if they still use filial piety to suppress themselves, it is useless. After all, the Tang family has gone, these people are just her uncles, and they are the kind of uncles that have not been seen for many years.
After Er Auntian finished speaking, she introduced other people to Tang Yunian. “Yu Nian, Er Auntie knows that you are a filial child. These are your uncles, uncles, and younger brothers.”
Tang Yunian was introduced by Er Auntian, and took a look at the other people. Some of them agreed with Er Auntian. He seemed to be the son of his uncle’s family. Tang Yunian vaguely remembered that he refused to let Qian Fanglan sell the house. It was the uncle of the Tang family who sold the land.
“Second Auntie,” Tang Yunian said with a smile, taking a gap, “To tell you the truth, if you hadn’t taken the initiative to come forward today, I really don’t know.” While she was a little stunned, Tang Yunian asked again with a smile , “I really don’t remember, and I don’t know why my mother and I didn’t meet Auntie and brother when we were in Yueqing?”
“You…” The smile on Er Auntie’s face could hardly hold back, but Tang Yunian didn’t give up, “Back then, my mother and I depended on each other, my mother’s parents died young, and I didn’t have any brothers and sisters, I thought my father was too. The same? So you are really there! It seems that I am ignorant.”
“I remember that the distance between Tangjia Village and Yueqing should not be farther than to the capital. It’s really hard work for my aunt and my brother to come to Beijing today.”
“It’s getting late,” Tang Yunian didn’t give them a chance to speak at all, “I wonder if Auntie and brother should go back to their resting place earlier?”
Er Auntie and the others were obviously stunned. They didn’t expect Tang Yunian’s refusal to be so neat. They didn’t even say what they were going to do, but fortunately Tang Yunian provided them with a place to stay and didn’t drive them away directly. Out of the Concubine’s House.
“Why did the concubine keep them?” Dong Xue was puzzled, “If the concubine doesn’t save face, the servants will go.”
“No.” Tang Yunian shook his head. The group of them tried their best to find the Concubine’s Mansion. If it was so easy to be sent out by themselves, there might be some trouble.
No matter what, they are all relatives of the original body, and others will be pitiful. The original body and Qian Fanglan were orphans and widowed mothers and depended on each other for life, but it was different when she became the concubine.
“Does the concubine want to help them?” Dong Xue asked.
“No.” Tang Yunian had no plans at all, but she could still hear from her mother’s words that she had been thinking about returning to the Tang family, after all her husband was buried there.
Over the years, besides worshipping Buddha, she also worshipped Tang Bai’s spiritual position. It’s a pity that I can’t give him a stick of incense in person. And it is impossible for her to deny the Tang family all the time. She is now an official, and the character of filial piety takes the lead. She was a jinshi in high school, and she didn’t even tell her about her wedding. That’s because no one knew. Now that the Tang family came to her door, she couldn’t ignore it.
“Prince-in-law,” Qiuyue stepped forward and said, “Do you want to rest in the concubine’s mansion today, or go back to the mansion?”
“Let’s go back.” Tang Yunian thought for a while, she was very tired, but when she thought that there was still someone waiting for her in the mansion, she just wanted to hurry back. “Don’t keep the princess waiting.”
“Yes.” Dong Xue listened to this answer and hurriedly asked people to prepare the carriage.
The yard near Wei Yubing was brightly lit. Even though it was halfway through Hai Shi, the window was still fully open, and a demure figure was quietly reading a book by the window. Tang Yunian held his breath, slowed down, and leaned over a little bit.
“Have you come back every year?” Wei Yubing asked without looking up.
“How do you know it’s me?” Tang Yunian was discouraged and didn’t see Yu Bing looking up at all. She wanted to give her a surprise, but Yu Bing found out completely.
“Apart from you, who would touch the window quietly?” Wei Yubing asked with a smile.
It seemed to make some sense, Tang Yunian nodded. If the servants in the house wanted to report something, they would definitely knock on the door and tell them, where would they run to the window like her.
“Don’t come in yet?” Wei Yubing put down the scroll and said helplessly, “Are you going to stand under the window until dawn?”
“Absolutely not.” Tang Yunian closed the window from the outside and hurried in, only a few steps away from Wei Yubing, only to realize that Yubing would despise the smell of alcohol on her body every time, so he changed into a new dress in the Concubine’s Mansion. But didn’t take a shower.
“What are you thinking about?” Wei Yubing laughed.
After sniffing with his nose to make sure there was no smell, Tang Yunian came over with confidence, “Aren’t Yu Bing still reading so late, aren’t you tired?” After a cursory scan, there seemed to be a few letters under the case, and the words on them could not be read. clear.
“Wait for you.” Wei Yubing took her away from the desk and asked her in turn, “How about attending Princess Lingrou’s wedding today?”
“It doesn’t make any sense.” Tang Yunian shook his head dejectedly. Originally, this marriage didn’t count, and she was extremely bored by herself. Tang Yunian briefly told Yu Bing what he had seen and heard at the wedding banquet, “Yu Bing, I also saw County Master Jiayi. She went to see the wedding banquet and posted some money.”
“Well.” Wei Yubing listened to her with a smile on her face, which was similar to what she heard, “What about the people in the Tang family who haven’t said anything about it every year?”
“What can I do?” Tang Yunian spread out on the bed.
“Nian Nian is this preparation to manage?”
“Even if I think about it,” Tang Yunian said weakly, “I don’t have the ability either.”
“Oh?” Wei Yubing didn’t quite understand what he said.
“What do I take care of?” Tang Yunian sat up straight, his bright eyes fell on Wei Yubing, “I myself am eating and drinking here at Yubing, even if I want to help them,” Tang Yunian spread his hands, ” No money either?”
The welfare of Dawei officials is very good, and she does not have to worry about food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Fourth-rank officials are very powerful, but the Tang family is poor and white. Without a shop, without a farm, it would be difficult to support her and her mother just by relying on her new position.
Of course, she is now the concubine, and she has a double salary and the treatment is different. After paying the bracelet deposit every month, she feels wronged.
“This idea every year…” Wei Yubing lay beside her and couldn’t help sneering, “With my money, can’t you support others!”
It’s not someone else, is it? It was as if she had raised a little white face outside.
“So what are you going to do every year?” Wei Yubing chuckled.
“Yubing, leave this matter alone,” Tang Yunian leaned obediently next to Wei Yubing, “I’ll take a closer look tomorrow. I can handle such trivial matters myself.”
“Okay.” Wei Yubing didn’t insist, “Then I’ll wait for years to handle this matter.”
“Well, I will definitely handle it properly.” Tang Yunian nodded heavily, sleepiness gradually swept over, and his little head tilted to the left before falling asleep.
“Nian Nian, the Mid-Autumn Festival is almost here.” Wei Yubing said with a smile.
“…Well.” Tang Yunian responded intermittently, and Wei Yubing lowered her head, only to notice that she was so sleepy that she couldn’t even open her eyes.
“I’m sleepy… Yu Bing.” Tang Yunian realized it himself, and said vaguely, “I want to sleep for a while.”
“So sleepy and come back?” Wei Yubing raised his head and narrowed his eyes, with a smile in his eyes.
“I promised!” Tang Yunian replied in a daze.
It was very late, and her mother also told her to rest in the concubine’s house. Dongxue and Qiuyue even offered to return to the house to deliver letters, but she refused. She still remembered that she promised Yu Bing when she went out today that she would go home no matter how late it was.
I still remember it, so cute! Wei Yubing pinched her little nose, and she didn’t let go until Tang Yunian, who was sleeping, protested.
“Take a good sleep,” Wei Yubing slowly got up. She knew that Tang Yunian was tired today. How can you not be tired? Busy with socializing, I have to go back to deal with housework, and I have to rush from the Concubine’s Mansion to the Princess Mansion.
Ripped off his coat, took off his shoes and socks, Tang Yunian obediently let her play with it, Wei Yubing blew out the lights and lay down himself. She didn’t need to reach out to embrace Tang Yunian, she just lay there quietly and counted.
“One, two…”
Sure enough, before the three counts, someone rolled into her arms, eyes closed tightly, but trust was written all over her body, hugging her tightly without any intention of letting go.
“Actually, you don’t have to come back today.” Wei Yubing smiled generously.
Before leaving, she set several rules for Tang Yunian, some of which she had to abide by, and some that could be negotiated at her discretion. Just like tonight, if Tang Yunian didn’t come back, he wouldn’t blame her, but after thinking about it, Wei Yubing might find her.
After all… Wei Yubing tilted her head, she couldn’t see Tang Yunian clearly after turning off the light, but the man’s frown, smile, eyebrows, eyes and lips were imprinted in her mind. If they were separated, Wei Yubing assumed it, and it was a bit unaccustomed.
Otherwise, why would it be time to go to bed, even if you want to read a book, you can read in bed, but why do you insist on waiting for her under the desk?
Maybe, Wei Yubing smiled, “Nian Nian, I’ll know as soon as you enter the yard today.” The yard was so silent that only the sound of falling leaves could be heard. When someone stepped in, the window was the easiest to detect.
