However, such "innocence" is not a good thing!
Anyone who is familiar with the situation in Yu Ge's family knows that Mrs. Yu has a pure and weak nature and cannot convince her daughter-in-law. Whenever a big problem arises, she can only rely on Mr. Yu Ge to come forward and personally convince the entire family. In this way, the entire Yu family is quite chaotic on weekdays!
Now, Mr. Yu Ge's only son is remarrying. The previous Mrs. Ling only left behind a daughter, Yu Yan, and then she died and her soul returned to the underworld. Now Mrs. Yu is the newly married Minister of Rites. The legitimate daughter of Mr. Han’s family.
However, although the Han family is beautiful, she is mean and greedy by nature. She forgets the righteousness for small gains, especially for her eldest daughter Yu Yanran. My granddaughter, I'm afraid Yu Yanran would have been trampled to death!
Because of this, Yu Yanran simply lived with the old couple Yu Ge and was raised by them personally.
No, Mrs. Yu felt sorry for her granddaughter being stuck at home today, so she simply took her to the Sheng Mansion for a walk, to get some fresh air, and to have a little fun.
Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Sheng were sitting in the Shou'an Hall and talking carefully about the words of the older generation. However, Yu Yanran and Minglan, the younger generation, could not sit still. The two younger sisters held hands and walked out with smiles. There was a fuss.
"Sister Yanran, why are you here today?"
Because Mrs. Sheng and Mrs. Yu had a good relationship, the relationship between Minglan and Yu Yanran was also deep. In some ways, the relationship between the two sisters was even better.
Minglan took Yu Yanran's hands and said, "Sister Yanran, I haven't finished the "Phoenix Flying High" you asked me to embroider yet!"
"The embroidery is so fine and dense, with so many stitches, that I can't finish it in a moment!"
"It's okay, Minglan!"
Yu Yanran held Minglan's hands and said with gratitude: "I'm not in a hurry with this "Phoenix Flying High"!"
Although Yu Yanran's stepmother Han was indeed in a hurry, Yu Yanran did not say anything.
After all, she is a kind-hearted and calm girl. In addition, she has always lived in an environment where her father does not love her and her stepmother treats her harshly. Yu Yanran has always been able to tolerate it, and she has to push herself even if she cannot bear it. Tolerate!
That is to say, with the care of Mr. Yu Ge and Mrs. Yu, if not, I don’t know what Yu Yanran will become!
Under this situation, Yu Yanran didn't have many friends, so "sensible people" would naturally get close to her younger siblings. On weekdays, there was only one Minglan who was in a similar situation to her, so the relationship between the two was natural. It will be much better.
"Sister Yanran!"
Minglan pressed the back of Yu Yanran's hand, obviously understanding her situation.
"Oh, by the way, Minglan!"
Yu Yanran didn't want to talk about her affairs anymore, so she asked, "Is brother Chang Quan gone?"
"Um!"
Minglan answered Yu Yanran's words empathetically, but she secretly decided to speed up the progress when she got back and try to finish the embroidery work as soon as possible to avoid Yu Yanran having to make things difficult for her stepmother again.
"Sister Yanran, my brother left yesterday. I'm afraid he has already arrived in Yin County and passed the county examination."
"ah?"
Yu Yanran was shocked: "I'm so sorry, Minglan!"
"I wanted to come here a few days ago, but you also know that the eldest lady in my family..."
Speaking of this, Yu Yanran also swallowed a little, as if remembering the pain of these days.
"Sister Yanran!"
Seeing her friend like this, Minglan felt panicked!
"Sister Yanran, I know!"
"I understand you!"
"Minglan!"
Yu Yanran smiled gratefully, forced to stop her tears, and said apologetically: "I'm so sorry!"
"Anyway, I wanted to come over earlier to see brother Changquan off, but..."
While Yu Yanran was talking, she took out a palm-sized wooden box from her arms and said, "Minglan, this is what my mother left me. Now, I will give it to Chang Quan." Brother!"
"ah?!"
Minglan covered her mouth and exclaimed!
"No! Sister Yanran, this is not allowed!"
"This is absolutely not okay!"
Minglan naturally knows how deep Yu Yanran's feelings are for her mother. Similarly, she also knows how difficult Yu Yanran's situation is in the Yu family, and more importantly, Yu Yanran's mother's relics are in these In the past year, there has been no one left out of ten.
The contents of the small wooden box now are most likely the few remaining tokens of Yu Yanran!
Naturally, Minglan would not accept this.
"Minglan!"
Yu Yanran forcefully pushed the wooden box into Minglan's hand and said resolutely: "Minglan, this is not for you, but for my brother Changquan!"
Yu Yanran, who has always been gentle, said with rare force: "Here is a jade pendant left by my mother. It is useless for me to keep it anyway, so I might as well give it to my brother Changquan!"
"and……"
Yu Yanran blinked her eyes and said sadly: "Besides, if I don't give these things away, I may not be able to keep them!"
"Sister Yanran..."
Minglan suddenly understood what Yu Yanran meant!
I'm afraid if it's not their family, who else is thinking about these things.
"Sister Yanran!"
Now that he understood Yu Yanran's situation, Minglan simply accepted it: "Don't worry, I will ask Chang Quan to keep this jade pendant!"
Seeing a smile on Yu Yanran's face, Minglan continued: "If one day you miss Aunt Ling's family, come to me and I will ask Chang Quan to return the jade pendant to you!"
"Well! We'll keep it for you for now!"
"puff!"
"Minglan, what are you talking about?"
Yu Yanran was dumbfounded by Minglan's words!
"Since I gave the thing away, this jade pendant naturally belongs to your brother. Why do you want to send it back?"
Yu Yanran pointed at Minglan's head with some annoyance and asked deliberately: "Why, as a sister, can't I even give my brother a jade pendant?"
"Little girl, you just like to talk nonsense!"
"whee……"
Seeing that Yu Yanran's mood improved, Minglan responded with a smile.
But she didn't say it, but she was determined in her heart. When Sheng Changquan came back, she would tell him about the gift from Yu Yanran, but she still kept the jade pendant herself to prevent Sheng Changquan from losing it. .
"Sister Yanran, why don't you come to my garden and have a look? My brother planted a new plum there!"
"Xiumei?"
Yu Yanran said that she had never heard of this kind of plum tree.
"Well, I don't know where the tree is from, but it's very beautiful!"
Minglan pulled Yu Yanran's cattails and walked forward with a smile.
"Okay, I haven't seen this Xiumei before?"
