The old lady held Madam Yu's hand sympathetically.
"Good boy, thank you for being by Dalang's side and taking care of him all these years."
The old lady pointed to the eight big boxes placed in the corner of the lobby and said: "These are all things for you, one box for each of the three children, and the rest belong to you and Da Lang."
The old lady picked up several small boxes on the table. The old lady put some particularly valuable jewelry and jade pendants in separate boxes.
"Actually, I prepared some of them early in the morning. I planned to give them to you after Da Lang takes my name. I didn't expect..." She didn't expect Da Lang to be her biological son.
Mrs. Yu looked at these large boxes and the red sandalwood and gold eight treasure boxes on the table and knew that the contents inside must be valuable.
"Mom, this is too expensive."
The old lady pretended to be angry and said: "The elders gave it to me, so I can't refuse it."
Mrs. Yu smiled and said, "Okay, my wife will accept it for the children first."
Aunt Zhao heard that Mrs. Yu took her two children to Ci'an Hall to pay respects for a long time, and when she came back, she carried eight large boxes back to Yuyaxuan, and she was so angry that she twisted her handkerchief.
What on earth did Mr. Li mean? Her second son’s daughter-in-law took the children there and didn’t even see her, but she was biased against Ms. Jiang and the others.
No, she had to ask Mr. Hou to help them make an idea, but she couldn't give Yu Da and the others an advantage.
Marquis Yu was invited to the Wanxiang Hall after he went to court. He frowned after hearing Aunt Zhao's words. This really isn't a good sign.
You can't blame him for being partial. The boss is capable and has made great achievements in battle. Sooner or later, he will be able to make further progress in his official career on his own.
Zhao gave birth to a total of three sons for him. The eldest son and the youngest son died in infancy, and only the second son grew up safely by his side.
Erlang was filial and sensible, and the children he gave birth to were also smart. The eldest grandson was already a child at a young age and would definitely have a bright future.
He just wanted to give Erlang a title, but Mr. Li has not let go over the years.
well! It’s hard for him as a father!
I just want to give my beloved child a good future, why is it so difficult!
In desperation, Mr. Yu endured his disgust and came to Li's yard.
His wife was born into a wealthy family, but she was as dull as a wooden person and had no interest at all.
He has always liked women like Zhao who are beautiful, knowledgeable, and gentle.
All his love in this life was given to Mrs. Zhao. He knew that he was sorry for Mrs. Li, so he also gave Mrs. Li the dignity of a real wife.
After all, they owe nothing to anyone.
When the old lady saw Mr. Yu coming over, she knew what he wanted to do. The shameless old man picked up the bowl to eat, then put the bowl down to curse.
I want to take advantage of all the good things in the world, how can anything be so cheap?
"Why is Mr. Hou free to come here today?"
"I heard that you are not in good health, so my husband came here to see you." Mr. Yu opened his eyes and told lies.
"That's what happens when you get older. It's better to decide some things early, lest the Marquis and my concubine die that day and the Marquis' mansion will be in chaos, isn't it?"
Mr. Yu always felt that his wife's attitude today was different from before, and her tone of voice was strange, but he couldn't help but feel a little anxious when she mentioned the thing that concerned her most.
"Madam is saying..."
"After Rong Rong's full moon banquet, find a good and auspicious day to gather the clan elders and open the ancestral hall. Officially record the child in my name to prepare for the appointment of the crown prince."
"It should, it should. It's better to decide things early. Just this candidate...?"
"Do what the Marquis wants. The Marquis is far-sighted and far-sighted. I believe in the Marquis's vision." If you want to destroy it, you will make it crazy.
She wanted this old guy and Mrs. Zhao to fall into the abyss when they were most proud.
"So we still have to compensate Dalang a little more, and don't let Dalang and the others feel cold."
"Yes, Madam, what you said makes sense. I have always treated both children equally and will never favor one over the other." Mr. Yu was extremely happy when his years of planning came true.
He doesn't hesitate to bring some good things to comfort the people in the big house. "Let's do this. Take out the shop on East Street under my name and put it in Dalang's name."
"The Marquis still loves Da Lang. The eight shops on East Street are the most profitable business of the Marquis. I think Da Lang will no longer have any objections to Erlang and the others."
"Oh, wait a minute..." Mr. Hou was interrupted by the old lady before he could finish his words.
"Songlan, ask the housekeeper to change the deed to Dalang's name as soon as possible, and send someone to tell Yu Yaxuan and the others the good news."
No, he didn’t mean that!
East Street is located in the most prosperous area of Shangjing. The shops inside are making a fortune every day, and every shop is filled with golden hens that can lay eggs.
Giving one room is like cutting his flesh, why did it become eight rooms? Mr. Yu gritted his teeth to comfort himself, reluctant to let the child catch the wolf.
Money is all external things, and Dalang still has uses, so Dalang and the Hou Mansion cannot be separated.
The Northern Japanese wolf is so ambitious that there will definitely be a tough battle with the Jin Dynasty in the future. When Dalang achieves military exploits, he can ask the Holy Master for merit in the name of the Marquis Mansion.
By then, the glory of Xuandehou Mansion will surely be even greater, which makes me happy just thinking about it.
Marquis Yu got his wish and felt a few years younger. He walked briskly to Wanxiang Hall to share the good news with Aunt Zhao.
Yu Jinchu originally went to Putuo Temple with his mother-in-law to worship Buddha, but three days had passed when he returned.
When he heard that his aunt was ill, he immediately rushed back to Xuandehou's mansion.
Yu Jinchu was the youngest daughter of Aunt Zhao. When she was a child, she accompanied her sister-in-law and Master Mo Bai to cultivate in the mountains and forests.
She returned to Xuandehou Mansion when she was eight years old. Her aunt was grateful for her companionship with her eldest sister and was very kind to her since she was a child.
Her aunt also always warned her to put her sister-in-law first and put her sister-in-law first in everything.
She respects her aunt, and naturally loves her younger sister, but she can feel that her aunt doesn't like her. Later, the sisters got married and rarely interacted with each other.
When Yu Jinchu went to Ci'an Hall to visit the old lady, Grandma Song and the others repeated their old tricks and recognized their relatives with blood.
Their guess was not wrong. The incident involving Master Mo Bai back then was a scam, intended to trap the legitimate daughter.
After hearing what Grandma Song said, Yu Jinchu had mixed feelings in his heart. There were many dirty things in the aristocratic family that were unknown to the public.
She always felt that the backyard of Xuandehou's mansion was clean and her father only had one wife and one concubine. My aunt is kind and loving, and she never makes it difficult for her concubine to give birth to her children. The aunt is peaceful, respects her mistress and cares deeply about her sister-in-law.
Unexpectedly, the Xuandehou Mansion was the most hypocritical and dirty place. How could his father treat them like this?
Aunt Zhao had been treating her sister better than her since she was a child. She thought it was because her aunt had to compromise as a concubine.
When she was a child, she was wronged by her sister-in-law. She went to her aunt to cry, but her aunt would only criticize her for being ignorant. As a sister, she was born to let her sister go.
In the dead of winter, she was forced to kneel in the yard. If her eldest brother hadn't found her aunt to intercede for her, her knees would have almost frozen.
Back then, he even tried to destroy her reputation in order to fulfill his sister's marriage.
The old lady stroked her daughter's cheek lovingly. "It's useless for my mother, and it makes you suffer."
"No, my mother has been very good to me since I was little." Yu Jinchu knew that her mother was the one who suffered the most.
The few words she uttered about her mother were deceived for most of her life, and she spent the best years of her life living in a scam.
However, she grew up safely, and found the right husband due to a combination of circumstances, which was considered a blessing in disguise.
"Mother, my daughter has lived a good life these years. Lin Lang is devoted to me. My mother-in-law is also a kind person and treats me like her own child."
Of course she knew how good the Lin family was. After all, she was the one who chose the Lin family as her husband's family for her biological daughter "Yu Jinzhu".
It’s just that some people have short-sighted eyes and mistake fish eyes for pearls.
