Amidst the sound of firecrackers, it is already the fifth year of Zhengxing.
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Wu Jinghou Mansion took Mei Min back.
Because now Mei Min's father-in-law, Wu Jinghou, doesn't look like him, and his aunt is the head of the family.
Li Jin had nothing to do. The aunt he married was still fighting with his father's aunt for the right to manage the family.
However, after Mei Min returned to Wu Jinghou's mansion, the Li family was officially separated.
Li Zhi, a second-time housewife, sold the property he received, took his wife and daughter, and left for Fujian, leaving cleanly.
At the same time, a letter was also sent and delivered to Mrs. Li.
The capital seemed peaceful as usual, but it was not peaceful at all.
The body of the maid was examined and it was found that the fatal injury was from a stab wound and had nothing to do with the fire.
However, the case was suppressed by the emperor and no further investigation was carried out.
Lu Yunhong knew something from Huang Shaoyu and reminded him: "You might as well pay attention to the trends of the Gao family and Prince Cheng's palace."
Huang Shaoyu asked strangely: "How can the affairs of Wu Jinghou Mansion be related to these two families?"
Lu Yunhong said: "The more impossible something is, the more careful it is to verify it. After all, you don't know the relationship between Gao Xian and the Mei family? And Gao Xian had a disfigured aunt before. Since Princess Yanyang became pregnant,
He was sent away, is there any follow-up now?"
Huang Shaoyu looked at Lu Yunhong in shock: "How do you know these things?"
Lu Yunhong said: "You have to know that in certain high positions, there are many informants!"
Huang Shaoyu bowed and bowed willingly.
Finally, he said: "But why are so few people reporting on me?"
Lu Yunhong looked at him with a look of disgust on his face and said: "What case did Dali Temple investigate? Whistleblowing? Are you not afraid of incriminating yourself?"
Huang Shaoyu: "..."
Well, I really can’t refute it.
"Then do I still want to investigate this matter?"
Lu Yunhong said: "You can send someone to take a look, and you will probably know. The emperor will not investigate if he doesn't want to. It is disgraceful to talk about such a thing, but in fact it is an internal struggle within aristocratic families and has little to do with the imperial court."
Huang Shaoyu said clearly: "I understand."
After he finished speaking, he said to Lu Yunhong: "I find that you are getting older and older. Is it because your children are getting older?"
Lu Yunhong laughed: "Those two little brats, do you want to laugh me to death?"
"It's just that I don't want to pay attention to the disturbances outside, but you don't have to worry too much. If it involves a serious case, I will help you. As for now, just take care of Yunzhu."
Huang Shaoyu was sincerely convinced and bowed again.
…
After Mei Min returned to Wu Jinghou's mansion, Mei Xinjue came to the Lu family with many gifts to pay New Year's greetings.
He said nervously: "I never thought she would come to the door. My mother also told me before she left that everything that happened in Wu Jinghou's mansion has nothing to do with me. But she came like that in the middle of the night, so I couldn't refuse her.
Outside the door."
"Later I showed her the autographed letter written by my mother. She was very angry and tore it up on the spot. She also smashed some ornaments and told me again and again which ones she had saved and who had given them to her.
?It’s really ugly!”
"But I resolutely refused to listen to her and went to Wu Jinghou's mansion to stand up for her. It wasn't until my uncle came to the door and said something to her that she followed him back obediently."
"Before she left, she threatened me and told me to hide in the Duke's Mansion for the rest of my life, otherwise she would always take revenge on me."
"I have already revised a book and sent it to my hometown in Jiangxi. I am waiting for my mother's reply and will follow her arrangements."
Lu Yunhong said: "You did a good job, at least you didn't make her think you are reliable."
"The current situation is that if you take care of it once, it will happen countless times. If you stick to it this time, she won't count on you in the future. As for the threat, don't take it to heart."
"After the three-year mourning period, it's time for you to make plans for yourself. Do you have a girl you like?"
Mei Xinjue lowered his head and blushed, feeling very embarrassed.
Wang Xiu watched with great interest and said: "It must be there, tell me."
Mei Xinjue shook his head and said, "It still doesn't work. When I'm sure, I'll ask my sister-in-law to make the decision."
Wang Xiu thought to herself that it was quite hidden. But at this time she saw Lu Yunhong's eyes light up, and she didn't know what other evil idea he had thought of?
She just pretended that she didn't see it and continued to tell Mei Xinjue: "Then you have to keep an eye on her. Your third sister can do anything. Be careful of her taking her anger out on her."
Mei Xinjue looked alert and said quickly: "Thank you, sister-in-law, I will remember it."
Seeing Mei Xinjue's serious look, Wang Xiu probably knew that he must be sincere.
But it depends on the girl's ability. The position of the Duke's wife is really not easy to hold.
Mainly, there is no real power now, and it is all supported by the old lady's connections during her lifetime. Whether it can live up to its name in the future depends on whether Mei Xinjue can stand out.
After Mei Xinjue left, Wang Xiu took Lu Yunhong's arm and said, "Tell me, when Mei Xinjue mentioned his sweetheart just now, why did your eyes light up?"
Did his eyes light up just now? Lu Yunhong didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
It seemed that his wife had observed him well. Lu Yunhong said: "Nothing, I just remembered that Mei Xinjue can marry a very powerful lady. You know, this aunt has many ways to deal with my sister-in-law."
Wang Xiu said "cut". She thought Lu Yunhong had thought of something good?
Lu Yunhong was very dissatisfied with her "cut" sound. He went up and hugged her body tightly and said, "What do you mean, you look down on me?"
Wang Xiudao: "I thought you knew who Mei Xinjue liked, and wanted to find out. Who knew it was this one?"
"If Mei Xinjue is a chess piece and he can marry whomever you ask him to marry, then is this still a dilemma for him?"
"Besides, even if you treated Xu Xiao as a pawn, you never forced him to marry a woman he didn't like! Let alone Mei Xinjue? For the sake of the old master, I think you will still do more
Take good care of him."
Speaking of Xu Xiao, Lu Yunhong's eyes lit up again.
He said to Wang Xiu: "You have reminded me that Xu Xiao should keep an eye on this matter. He has many clever ideas and is good at repaying others with their own methods. He is best suited to deal with a shameless woman like Mei Min."
Wang Xiu reminded: "Guo Ting is pregnant, please take it easy."
Lu Yunhong said: "With Mrs. Zhang in charge, what are you worried about?"
Wang Xiu smiled and said, "That's right. But there have been a lot of pregnant women recently, so I'm getting nervous."
After saying that, she chuckled.
Lu Yunhong felt warm in his heart when he saw her smiling like a child who didn't know anything about the world. He couldn't help but hug her up and said, "They gave birth to them. I won't be able to go shopping and drink tea with you for the next three to five years at most. Anyway,
When it comes to having children, they are not always ranked behind Chengxi and Xinran, they are brothers and sisters."
Wang Xiu smiled and punched Lu Yunhong, telling him to put it down.
Lu Yunhong said unruly: "I won't let you go. It took a lot of effort to hold her for a while."
But at this moment Lu Chengxi ran in, and when he saw this, he quickly covered his eyes, turned away, and muttered: "Oh, can you two pay attention, there is a child!"
Wang Xiu burst out laughing, thinking his son was so funny.
Lu Yunhong couldn't help laughing, but he still didn't let go. He just drove his son away and said: "Get away!"
Lawrence Lu stamped his foot: "Huh! I knew you didn't love me!"
