Chapter thirty-seven, the discussion of the clan elders
"That's the best thing you can think of, but... are you sure Qian will agree?" An and Grand Duke's expressions brightened slightly.
When the Qian family was mentioned, Yu Ruiwen's happy face immediately froze.
Yu Lanyan is Qian's niece. He was so happy about what he said just now that he suddenly forgot about it.
He raised his eyes to look at his third daughter, and saw that she was looking at him with full eyes, full of trust, which made him embarrassed to say anything back.
"Mother, this is not a matter of whether the Qian family agrees or disagrees. It is the reputation of the Yu family. It is a matter of whether the Yu family should agree or not. It is related to the future marriages of all the Yu family's daughters. My son believes in the elders of the Yu family.
We will understand." Yu Ruiwen said with a serious face.
He glanced sideways at his daughter, and seeing the admiration in her eyes, he felt more and more that what he said was right.
Princess An and the eldest princess snorted coldly: "Originally, the affairs of the Yu clan have nothing to do with me. I used to not care about your affairs, but now that you have stood up for a rare occasion, what do you think should be done about this matter?
Then don't weaken my reputation. No matter how bad you are, you are still my son and the Marquis of Xuanping, and cannot be controlled by those clan elders."
"Mother, don't worry, my son understands." When An and the eldest princess said this, Yu Ruiwen's eyes lit up and his body straightened up a lot.
In the past, what An and the eldest princess talked about the most was to tell him not to say he was his son.
Now these words are like recognition of Yu Ruiwen. His back is straight and his mood is excited. He originally wanted to say a few sensational words, but when the words come to his lips, he can't say them out. He can only be stuck there, only than
Many eyes lit up in the past day, and I was very excited to watch.
"Okay, okay, Qian, I will let you take it back. The affairs of the Yu family should also be handled more neatly. Don't let my reputation be diminished, and don't let your daughter be affected." Princess An and the eldest daughter
I really don't want to see my stupid son looking at me with excitement, as if he wants to say something close to his heart.
This thought made her feel a chill involuntarily, and she waved her hand away.
"Yes, mother!" Seeing that her mother was impatient, Yu Ruiwen did not dare to say anything more and hurriedly responded.
"Father, please go back and deal with Yu Lanyan's affairs first. This matter should be done sooner rather than later. Grandma will ask mother to come over after cleaning up and deal with the ceremony for the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion." Yu Xi said with a delicate smile.
"Okay, okay, then I'll go back and deal with Yu Lanyan's affairs first." Yu Ruiwen felt that his daughter was right and said repeatedly. At this moment, he even felt that Qian didn't need to go back early to avoid her quarreling with him later.
What mother said was that Mrs. Qian must be Yu Lanyan's aunt. If she were here, it would be difficult to handle her own affairs. It was better to take care of this matter before she returned home.
With this thought in mind, he stopped stopping at the Grand Princess's Mansion and turned around and hurried back.
All members of the Yu clan are in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion.
The flower hall was full of elders of the Yu clan. When Yu Ruiwen left, several clan elders suggested that they use funerals to dilute the enthusiasm for Yu Lanyan. It would be best for everyone not to mention that such a big incident happened in the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.
Things, Yu Lanyan's things are nothing if not trivial.
These clan elders who proposed the proposal had benefited from Ning, the second wife of Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, so they naturally helped Ning speak for them at this time.
The other clan elders who didn't speak looked at me and I looked at you. Although they felt it was inappropriate, they didn't dare to stand up and speak. At most, a few people who were close to each other talked softly and expressed their own thoughts.
During the lively discussion, Yu Ruiwen came back. After sitting down on a chair in the middle, he looked around and asked: "How are the discussions among the elders going?"
"Master Marquis, it's still the same as before. The most important thing for everyone now is to organize the funeral. Mrs. Zhengyuan Hou and Lord Lanxuan County both have official orders. This funeral cannot be simple. No matter what, we must send them off well, otherwise it will be
Our Yu clan is gone." An elder said first.
"Yes, let's suppress this matter first and arrange the funeral first." Another clan elder said.
"That's indeed the truth. Anyway, we have entered Xin Kangbo's mansion now, so we won't have any contact with him in the future." The third clan elder also followed suit.
These three were all clan elders who had been bribed by the Ning family early on, and they stood by Yu Lanyan's side during the whole process.
Anyway, Marquis Xuanping is someone who doesn't care about things. If the three of them say this, Marquis Xuanping will definitely agree. Besides, Mrs. Marquis Xuanping is also Yu Lanyan's biological aunt and will always speak on her niece's side.
The three clan elders all thought so. Although they were persuading, they seemed to have already made up their minds.
Yu Ruiwen didn't care about this feeling in the past, but now he suddenly felt that these three clan elders didn't take him seriously at all. They said they let him make decisions, that he was the clan leader and should make his own decisions. They just discussed and discussed.
What does this mean now? This was the way he said it when he left, and is it still the case now?
This is obviously the decision to do this, so why are you asking yourself what the patriarch is doing?
The words of An and the eldest princess puppet were in my ears, and they felt inexplicably harsh!
He slapped his hand heavily on the table and snorted coldly: "If such a woman is still in our clan, she will be like a sinking pond."
These sharp words were completely different from his usual appearance. Everyone in the hall was stunned and looked at Yu Ruiwen in astonishment, especially the three clan elders with panicked expressions on their faces.
"Master Hou...this..." An old clan member shook his hands.
"Master Hou, this must not be a member of our Yu clan after all." Another clan elder reacted quickly and said hurriedly.
"Then it's easier to just remove him from the family. From now on, there will be no such person in the Yu family." Yu Ruiwen picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip, then put it down heavily and made the final decision.
After saying this, the whole room was shocked. Everyone looked at Yu Ruiwen in disbelief. They didn't believe that this was said by the incompetent Yu Ruiwen. He didn't say what he said in the past, but now he has such a big idea, and he just
Aren't you afraid that your wife will be angry?
"What? You don't agree? You all have granddaughters, right? If this girl still stays in the Yu clan, I'm afraid it will be your granddaughter who will be affected in the end, and your granddaughter's marriage may be ruined by then." Yu Ruiwen used An He.
The words of the eldest princess were threatening.
The people present are all older and are elders of the Yu clan. Basically, they all have granddaughters. Even if there are no granddaughters now, there may be granddaughters in the future.
After thinking about it this way, we really couldn't ignore this matter. Everyone looked at each other and nodded. If this was done, the Yu family would have stopped their losses in time.
"Master Marquis, let's wait until Madam comes back to discuss this matter!" A clan elder bribed by the Ning family didn't like it and hurriedly moved the Qian family out.
These words coincided with the words of An and the eldest princess. Yu Ruiwen was furious, and his face was livid: "I have to ask the Qian family about the Yu family. Is it possible that in the future it will not be the Yu family, but the Qian family?"
A member of the same clan?"
His anger came out of the blue, and the clan elders present were all stunned. For a moment, you looked at me, and I looked at you.
"What the Marquis means..." After the silence, someone finally spoke tentatively. In the past, Yu Ruiwen had always had a good temper, and he didn't really make up his mind. The affairs in the clan were usually decided by a few leading clan elders, but now it's like this
In anger, several clan elders did not dare to act recklessly.
"Of course it will be kicked off the Yu family's genealogy." Yu Ruiwen looked at him coldly and said.
In the past, he had a good temper, and everyone almost climbed on top of him. Did he really treat him as a puppet?
"Then...how to explain to Mrs. Ning of Zhengyuan Hou Mansion?" Another clan elder asked cautiously.
"What do you want to explain? If they don't want to, Zhengyuanhou Mansion can also kick them out of the Yu clan." Yu Ruiwen said angrily, "A second-in-command in Zhengyuanhou Mansion really thinks that he is Zhengyuanhou!
"
After Yu Ruiwen showed his power, no one dared to question it anymore. After all, Yu Ruiwen's identity was put here. Even if Zhengyuan Hou was the clan leader, it was considered as a matter of fact, but he still had to listen to Yu Ruiwen's opinion. Although this person
Generally, he doesn't have any opinions, but that doesn't mean he can't make the decision.
Now that Yu Ruiwen has made this decision, more clan elders have come forward to express their opinions, thinking that it should be so. Even for the sake of their own younger generations, they cannot allow a woman who has lost her virginity to remain in the family tree. Although she has now entered the Xinkangbo Mansion, it is necessary
An explanation is still needed, and it is always the Yu family’s public attitude towards this matter.
Qian didn't expect to be released so soon, and excitedly saluted An and the eldest princess.
"Copy a few more today. I'll let you go back in the evening and hand over the rest when you get back. If you copy too late, come over and copy again." Princess An and the eldest princess glanced at Qian with a calm expression.
"Yes, mother, my daughter-in-law obeys your orders." At this time, Mrs. Qian naturally said what An and the eldest princess said without any hesitation.
"Has the confession been written?" An and the eldest princess snorted noncommittally.
"Mom, my daughter-in-law has written it, please take a look." Qian hurriedly reached out and took the confession she had just written from the hand of the maid behind her. She felt extremely hateful but had to write it.
The whole thing was blamed on Grandma Wang. Grandma Wang was just a waste of money. Now everything was blamed on Grandma Wang, making her look extremely innocent.
I heard that Princess An and Dachang might put her back, and Qian would be particularly obedient now.
Aunt Qin took it from Qian's hand and presented it to An and the eldest princess. After taking it and looking at it, she finally looked at the signature below and nodded to Aunt Qin.
Aunt Qin took the rice paper and handed it to Qian, and a maid brought over a box of Hong's ink pads.
"Madam, please take a fingerprint." Aunt Qin said.
"Wha...what?" Qian's face changed drastically, and he looked at Princess An and the eldest princess who was sitting on top in astonishment.
"What? You don't want to?" An and the eldest princess asked coldly, raising their eyes to look at Qian.
"No...no, I just think this thing...is of little use." Qian said hurriedly.
"To press or not to press?" Princess An and the eldest daughter's eyes fell on Qian's face, "If you don't press, don't go back."
Hearing what An and the eldest princess said, Qian didn't dare to disobey, so she hurriedly said: "Mother, I... I press."
I have already written it down, and pressing another fingerprint is nothing. I just need to wait until the opportunity arises to ask Mr. Hou to come back. This was what Qian had in mind, so he pressed his fingerprint obediently.
After she finished pressing her finger prints, Aunt Qin stepped aside with the paper in hand.
"Jiao'er has returned to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion to recuperate in the past few days." An and the eldest princess continued.
"Why does Jiaoer want to go back to Xuanpinghou's mansion?" Qian asked in surprise.
"Why, you can't go back yet?" An and the eldest princess snorted coldly.
"No...no, my daughter-in-law just finds it strange." Mrs. Qian hurriedly excused herself.
He was close to her and lived in Xuanpinghou Mansion for more than half of the year.
After hearing that Yu Xijiao was back, Qian Lizhen left aggrievedly. Qian also promised repeatedly that Yu Xijiao would not stay here for long and that the courtyard would be reserved for her in the future.
"Is it weird to go back to live in your own house? Is it normal for others to live in your own house?" Princess An and the eldest princess said.
"That's what mother said!" Mrs. Qian didn't dare to talk back, so she kept her head down and said quietly.
Princess An and the eldest daughter waved her hands and motioned for her to go down. Aunt Qin stepped forward and led Qian away. She had to copy some more scriptures before leaving.
After Qian went down, An and the eldest princess asked Yu Xijiao, who was sitting quietly aside: "Are you going back with her?"
"Grandma, don't worry, I won't be reckless. I just want to pay homage to Lanxuan County Lord first. It will be more convenient to follow mother there." Yu Xijiao knelt down, "I hope grandma will make it happen."
"You idiot!" Princess An and the eldest princess sighed helplessly and stretched out her hand to pull Yu Xijiao up. This child was a person who showed great kindness and knew how to repay kindness. This was something Yu Lanxuan couldn't worry about.
"Why can't you let go? You can't control her affairs."
