Substitute Marriage 3

next day

It was already bright when Yan Ling woke up. While Pearl was washing her face, she whispered: "The old lady saw that the young lady did not go to say hello, so she sent someone to ask. The servant did as the young lady said. The old lady asked the young lady to come over when she feels better."

Yan Ling nodded: "Yeah."

The original owner never had to say anything about the rules. The old lady never liked Mr. Liu, and even the original owner didn't like her either.

The cause is Yu Yanhe.

When marrying Mrs. Liu, Yu Yanhe's mother died in childbirth, so she struggled to give birth to her. There was also an older brother Yu Jing in front of her, who was Yu Zhen's eldest son.

Mrs. Zhang is also the old lady’s niece from her mother’s side, so the relationship is a bit distant. However, with this relationship, the old lady obviously likes Mr. Zhang more. He also died in order to give birth to a child, which increased his weight in her heart.

Yu Yanhe, who lost his mother just after birth, and Yu Jing, who was three years old at the time, loved her too much.

And the Liu family is not a strong-willed person. She would have married her in the first place, but Yu Zhen proposed marriage, and secondly, the Liu family was deeply involved in party disputes, and the Liu family uncle was in jail. Someone needed to take advantage of her, so how could she dare to offend the Yu family again?

So Mrs. Liu took the initiative to marry her.

It stands to reason that these two mother-in-laws and daughters-in-law, one is strong and the other is willing to give in, should be relatively harmonious.

However, there was his first wife and the two children she left standing in the middle.

At first, Ms. Liu wanted to be a loving mother and take good care of Yu Yanhe and Yu Jing, especially Yu Yanhe, who was really nice from morning to night.

But the old lady of the Yu family was always worried that her stepmother would bully the children left behind, and she was suspicious all day long. The children were often sick when they were young, and Liu herself had to be punished by the old lady every time she fell ill.

Too many times, Ms. Liu was not really submissive. She simply sent the two children directly to the old lady without intervening. This incident also completely worsened the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. However, Ms. Liu was pregnant at this time. With an honest excuse, the old lady

The wife couldn't say anything, she could only make a note secretly and get it back bit by bit in the days to come.

With the word of filial piety under her belt, Mrs. Liu could not directly resist, and would give in on many things. She would always greet you at dawn and dusk, rain or shine.

Fortunately, the old lady has gotten older over the years, and her energy is not as good as before. She doesn't have to worry much, and her life is getting along well.

The original owner was raised by the Liu family, so she naturally followed this habit, but Yan Ling didn't want to go, because she didn't want to meet an old lady who didn't like her.

I just didn't expect this person to ask specifically.

Yan Ling's eyes darkened slightly, fearing that he might do something else.

She sat in front of the dressing mirror, closed her eyes and let the two maids dress up, while recalling the memory of the original owner. After this rejection, it seemed that Yu Yanhe came over with Xiao Yi's poems to show her. Nothing much happened?

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a sound on the door curtain, and a little maid announced in a hurry: "Second Miss, the eldest lady is here."

Yan Ling raised her eyes and saw Yu Yanhe walking in with a smile.

She had just been engaged to Prince Weiyuan. She wore plain makeup. Now she didn't want to get married, but she dressed brightly and attractively. Her already gorgeous face had a more mature charm: "Sister, I'm paying my respects to my grandmother this morning. I heard that

You're not feeling well, so you came here to take a look, but luckily you look good."

Yan Ling also smiled and said: "Fortunately, they are all rouged. Sister, I have finished reading now, but what else is there?"

Yu Yanhe, who had just found a place to sit down by himself: "..."

She looked at her younger sister with a slightly strange expression. The most they met was at the old lady's side, and they basically met face to face. Just as Mrs. Liu didn't let Yu Yanling play with her, the old lady didn't let her play with Yu Yanling either.

, the two of them didn’t have much contact.

Her impression of this person was basically from her previous life. She had a happy married life, making people jealous, and therefore quite generous. When she went to ask for help every time, he was willing to help, and he seemed to be easy to bully.

But why is it different now?

Yu Yanhe took a slight breath and forced out a friendly smile: "There are indeed two things. The first -"

Yan Ling interrupted her in disgust: "...Sister, I haven't had breakfast yet."

Yu Yanhe's smile froze and his cheeks turned slightly red: "I didn't think well. My sister should eat first."

Yan Ling nodded happily, and the maid in the yard also brought breakfast. It was quite rich, including porridge, snacks, and some fried things. The portions were not large, but they added up to a lot.

She just sat there and ate alone, which made Yu Yanhe, who was still in the bed, a little restless. Go out, they are eating. It would be rude to stare at her while eating. Don't go out. This is their resting place.

For a moment, Yu Yanhe regretted that he was in such a hurry and came so early.

Who would have thought that my sister-in-law, who has always been strict with rules in her memory, would sleep until so late this time. Could it be that what happened yesterday really made her so angry?

I guess so. Otherwise, why was he so easy to bully before, but now he has become sharp-tongued and extremely cold towards her.

Yu Yanhe felt depressed. If it weren't for the plan, she wouldn't be here with her hot face and cold butt!

——

After waiting and waiting, Yan Ling finally finished his breakfast in half an hour.

Yu Yanhe's buttocks were numb. When he heard the noise, he quickly got up and walked around twice, then approached with a smile: "Second sister, grandma hasn't slept very well these past two days. I happened to hear that the apricot flowers in Chongguang Temple were in bloom, so I asked her to

I will take you sisters there to ask for two peace charms."

Yan Ling wiped his mouth, put down his handkerchief, and said suspiciously: "You don't have any bad intentions, do you?"

Yu Yanhe's eyebrows twitched and he instinctively said: "How could it be possible?!"

Yan Ling shook his head: "It's very possible. Don't believe it. You wanted me to marry you yesterday, but now you don't?"

Yu Yanhe's face turned red immediately and he couldn't say anything he had prepared. He just stared at her angrily.

How could this person say it directly!

She, she didn't do it on purpose. If it weren't for the fact that the marriage was so difficult to break up, would she have come up with this trick?

It's just that she can't say it anymore, otherwise Yan Ling will reject it even more. There are still two months left, so they plan to keep it subtle at first, and if it doesn't work, they will think of other ways.

Therefore, Yu Yanhe suppressed his shame and said: "This matter is my fault. I didn't know about it originally. It was my father's decision. I made it clear to my father yesterday and I will not mention it again."

Yan Ling clicked his tongue when he heard this: "So that's it, but our father is the Minister of Rites, but he can come up with such a trick. Do you think that if His Majesty knew about it, would he still let me be the Minister of Rites?"

"What are you going to do!" Yu Yanhe breathed in shock and looked at her in horror, fearing that if she went out and said nonsense, Yu Zhen's black hat would be damaged, and something would really happen!

Yan Ling smiled half-heartedly: "What can I do? I can't see Your Majesty."

Yu Yanhe became a little quieter, but there was still some surprise in his eyes. He didn't say anything for a while, but Yan Ling became impatient: "Sister, if you are fine, then go back first, I still want to sleep."

"Didn't you just wake up?" Yu Yanhe asked subconsciously.

Yan Ling: "I just woke up and can't sleep? Isn't it normal for me to rest more when I feel unwell?"

Yu Yanhe bit his lip, but refused to leave. Instead, he reached out to the maid behind him. The maid handed out a stack of paper. She handed it to Yan Ling: "I heard that you like to read some poems. What happened yesterday was my fault, too.

I don’t know what gift to give you, so I collected some poems that look pretty good. Take a look and if you like them, I’ll get you some more.”

Yan Ling glanced at her with a half-smile.

Yu Yanhe's cheeks heated up. Although she didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this, it was all for the sake of her sister, lest she become a widow.

But when she saw it, Yu Yanhe felt inexplicably ashamed, as if she had seen through what she was thinking.

Fortunately, Yan Ling didn't say anything. She took the papers and looked at them one by one. The first one was a seven-character poem with ordinary handwriting. She glanced at it roughly and frowned slightly: "I don't like it."

Then throw her aside.

Yu Yanhe glanced at it and said, "I don't like it either. This person's handwriting is not very good-looking, and he definitely hasn't put much effort into his knowledge."

Yan Ling smiled: "Sister, do you know this too?"

"I can't talk about it, I just know a little bit about it." Yu Yanhe smiled guiltily. In fact, she didn't bother to understand. She likes rich clothes and jewelry. When it comes to this, she speaks clearly and clearly. In order to avoid making too many mistakes, she

Changing the subject: "Take a look and see if there is anything you like in it? I will give it to you based on his."

Yan Ling followed her words and continued to look through them, but she didn't show any liking for each one.

Yu Yanhe couldn't help but feel excited.

She can't have such high standards as her younger sister, right? Does it have to be someone like Xie Cheng to appreciate her?

Yu Yanhe bit her lip and suddenly saw a poem. The familiar handwriting made her eyes flash. Seeing that Yan Ling was about to discard it, she quickly reminded her: "Hey, this looks good?"

Yan Ling glanced at it with a puzzled look on his face: "Isn't it right? Do you like this?"

That expression is like asking: How can you still like this piece of shit?

Yu Yanhe's face turned slightly stiff: "What, what's wrong?"

Yan Ling pursed her lips, her cheeks slightly bulged, and said seriously: "The rhetoric is gorgeous but suspended. Look at this paper, it is better than others, and it has a faint fragrance of ink. It is definitely not something ordinary people can afford, but it is so difficult for such a person to be here."

The people are suffering, but if you don’t say where the people are suffering, do you think they are moaning without illness?

He is probably a young man from a big family. When someone praises him, he doesn't know his name. No one with a little more knowledge would fall in love with such a lyric. Sister, do you have such bad taste?"

Yu Yanhe: “…………”
