Step-Mother has Given Up

Ye Shaofu yelled: "Nonsense, naturally I listen to the wife. From now on, all the affairs of the family will be listened to by the wife."

Before saying a word, Lynch and Lin Feng and the people around them petrified. Listen, Mrs., or Mrs. everything in the family. Did they hear that right?

Seeing them in shock, Ye Shaofu suddenly felt dull, stroking his nose and explained: "The male host is outside, the female host is in the house. Naturally, the wife is responsible for all matters in the family." After saying this, he felt reasonable and nodded in praise for himself. .

Wizard Lin Fenglin didn’t believe this. They instinctively felt that Ye Shaofu’s heart had fallen. In order to marry his wife, the dignity of a man could be put aside. This has not yet entered the door. If he did enter the door, it would be a veritable fear, afraid of his own mother-in-law. .

It’s said that it’s easy to change your temperament, but Lynch can’t change the "tell the truth" nature, so he directly said: "Master, wait for Madam to enter the door, you are in fear."

"Fear within, what is fear within?" Ye Shaofu seemed to have heard this term, but he couldn't remember what it meant.

When Lin Qi saw this, he stepped back a few steps and said, "Subordinates go to the Qintian Supervisor and retire." He thought he would be beaten or punished, so he was also prepared.

Who ever thought that the Lord actually didn't know what it meant to be afraid of, and he really laughed at him. Lynch was afraid of being beaten, so he didn't laugh, turned around and ran away.

Lin Feng coughed lightly, and said, "Master, this marriage requires a betrothal gift. Going to prepare?"

"Yes, go to prepare. I need to draw up a list of dowry gifts first, and you should prepare according to the list." Ye Shaofu turned around and asked for paper from Shen Yanmo. He was very interested in picking up a pen to write, but he didn't know what to write, and he smiled suddenly. Condensed on his face, put the post away, walked outside, and walked to Lin Feng and smiled: "You go to the Ministry of Rites and ask what you need to get married. Let them draw up a list. By the way, this king wants ten miles of red makeup. Marry Madam. Let them read and write, so they can't lose the face of the king."

"Yes." Although Lin Feng agreed so, but in his heart, you still care about your face, your face is gone, you are afraid of the inside, if you are afraid of the inside, if it is spread out, Kyoto is afraid that it will laugh at you.

"Come back." Lin Feng turned and walked a few steps, and was yelled by Ye Shaofu. He turned around and stopped and listened to Ye Shaofu's instructions, "Get the list and send it back as soon as possible." If you need to add something, add it in time to not delay the wedding.

"Subordinates take orders."

Ye Shaofu turned back and saw Shen Yanmo sitting on the couch making clothes. It was a child's outer coat, fuchsia brocade, with fine stitches and smooth stitches. It was obvious that the lady's craftsmanship was good: "Whose is this?"

"Brother Ao." Shen Yanmo replied while threading the needle and threading, his attitude was still plain, his eyes were fixed on the clothes, and he did not look up at Ye Shaofu.

Ye Shaofu landed on the opposite side, looking at the dexterous hand, with sour water in his heart: "Going to Yan Country, trekking through mountains and rivers, my clothes are damaged a lot, madam can sew one for me."

Shen Yanmo vaguely promised: "I'll talk about it later." It takes time to make the clothes of his sons. There is no time to do it for him. There is an embroiderer in the King's Mansion, and it is not her turn to be courteous.

"Thank you, Madam." Ye Shaofu thought that Shen Yanmo had agreed. He opened his eyes with joy, grinned silly and cheerful, and looked like a second fool. Suddenly he remembered Lynch's words and blurted out and asked: "Madam, what is Fear?"

The work in Shen Yanmo's hands paused, raising his eyes and staring at him: "You really don't know?" She also heard the conversation just now, but Ye Shaofu didn't know what it meant to be afraid of.

"I don't know, as if I have heard someone say it, but I can't remember where I heard it. After thinking about it, I always feel that it is not a good thing. This Lin Qi, really can't spit out ivory in the dog's mouth." Ye Shaofu knew Lin Qi's temperament. If you don't ask anyone who understands that he is depressed, then he will ask Shen Yanmo.

"Do you know that you are afraid of your daughter-in-law?" Shen Yanmo held back a smile. She didn't expect that the omnipotent Ye Shaofu would have something that she didn't know, or something trivial.

"I know." Ye Shaofu took it for granted. A man is afraid of his daughter-in-law and will be ridiculed. A man is afraid of a woman. It will damage the dignity of a man when he spreads it out. Thinking of this, Ye Shaofu came back to his senses: "Being afraid of his wife is afraid of his daughter-in-law?"

Shen Yanmo nodded, Shuiling Ling's eyes were smiling, and he stared at Ye Shaofu for a moment, wanting to see his thunderous appearance, who knows...

Ye Shaofu patted the table with one hand: "I thought it was something bad. It turned out to be afraid of my daughter-in-law. What's the matter? The way a couple get along is not something that can be explained by words. A man makes a woman just right." This said. It has to be justified.

Not long after, Brother Yao, Brother Rong, Brother Yu and Brother Ao came in, all of them in high spirits. Seeing Shen Yanmo's expression of joy, they all saluted and greeted her and asked why she was happy.

Shen Yanmo didn't help conceal: "Are we discussing things within fear?"

I thought that a few children didn't know, but Brother Ao raised his hand and said excitedly: "Mother, I know, I know, being afraid of the inside is afraid of the daughter-in-law."

"How did you find out?" Ye Shaofu was surprised, his round eyes looked at Brother Ao, and he reached out and hugged him in his arms.

"Brother Chang said it, he said that Wuchang Hou was afraid of Nei." Ao Geer explained with a smile, "I also asked at the time, what is the matter of fear of Nei, Chang explained to us, that is, he is afraid of his daughter-in-law. Said, his father said that being afraid of a daughter-in-law is not a fear, but it is a matter of the man to let a woman."

Shen Yanmo sneered and glanced at Ye Shaofu: "As expected of relatives, even the explanation is the same."

Ye Shaofu sighed, where are relatives? He and Gu Shaoyi are brothers, brothers of a mother and twins, but there are some things that I can't say temporarily, and I will explain to his wife later.

Brother Yao also nodded in agreement: "Brother Chang seems to say so."

Brother Rong's eyes rolled on Ye Shaofu: "Who is afraid of it again?" This sentence is the point.

Brother Yu's sight also fell on Ye Shaofu: "The master is afraid of the inside? No, how can the master be afraid of the inside before marrying a wife?"

Elder Brother Ao nestled in Ye Shaofu's arms and looked at Shen Yanmo with a smile: "Master is about to marry his mother, so naturally I'm afraid, otherwise I won't agree."

"Yes, yes." The children smiled and helped, "If the master does not let the mother, we will disagree."

Shen Yanmo's cheeks were blushing, and he raised his hand to hit someone. Several children filed out, leaving only a string of crisp laughter.

An hour later, Lynch and Lin Feng came back. Lin Qi went to the Qin Tianjian, and the Qin Tianjian calculated that August 18, that is, nine days later, is a good day, and it is appropriate to marry.

Ye Shaofu immediately made a decision: "Just choose August 28."

Lin Feng handed a list to Ye Shaofu: "This is the list of dowry gifts drawn up by Lord Wang of the Ministry of Rites. Back then, it was this list of dowry gifts for Lu Guogong to marry Princess Mingxia for his son."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ye Shaofu: "Princess Mingxia's marriage is not going well, how can my wife use it? Let them draw up a new copy." Opened the list of betrothal gifts and took a look, the more he looked at the brows, the tighter his brows would be. The list was thrown into Lin Feng's arms: "These things are too few, let them add more."

Lin Feng caught it with both hands, with a bitter face: "Master, it's not compliant."

The princess Mingxia married, Lu Guogong looked at the face of the Prince Yong's mansion, and the betrothal was fifty-six. If you add more, it will exceed the status of the princess.

"Why is it not in compliance with the rules?" Ye Shaofu frowned and looked over, "What is the status of Duke Lu's dude, and what is the identity of the king? Can this king be compared with Duke Lu's dude in marriage?"

Lin Feng pondered for a moment and felt that Ye Shaofu was right. Not only the wife wants to marry, but the prince of his family also wants to marry. Naturally, a prince and a princess cannot compare with others. He said: "Subordinates will do it." Resigned with the dowry list.

Good things do not go out, and evil things go thousands of miles away, they are all aimed at others.

Shen Yanmo is also regarded as a man of the capital in Kyoto. He is valued by the emperor and dependent on the queen mother, and all the big families want to indulge in one or two.

As long as there is a little bit of wind and grass in Shenfu, some people in Kyoto can smell it, knowing that Shen Yanmo is going to marry King Jing, it was a thunderstorm in winter, and everyone was dumbfounded. Then they were relieved when they thought about it.

Five years in the future, the king wants to accept Mrs. Shen as a concubine, and Mrs. Shen resolutely refuses. Now that the Ming media is marrying, why shouldn't it be unreasonable?

As soon as the news came out, several families rejoiced and others sorrowed. I hope to see not only Furong, but also the Golden Lady, who will eventually get married. Hearing that Shen Yanmo is going to marry Ye Shaofu, he put aside his work and hurriedly came to inquire about the situation and found that it was true. Mo happy.

The Empress Dowager also sent people gifts to celebrate Shen Yanmo's finding a wishful man.

The Shen family were the happiest. Five years ago, they wanted Shen Yanmo to marry King King and climb the tree. Five years later, their wish came true. How could they not celebrate?

Mr. Shen specially ordered someone to make good dishes, and took out the wine he had collected for many years. He drank and drank himself. After he was full and satiated, he became drunk. He pulled the sleeves of the second uncle of the Shen family and cried and cried, saying sorry to the boss. , Failing to take good care of the children for him, so that the children are not close to his grandfather. He said it would make up for one or two things.

No one knows whether he truly regrets or pretends.

The only uncomfortable family belonged to the Marquis Mansion of Wuchang, especially Gu Chang, who was stunned to learn that Shen Yanmo was married to Ye Shaofu, and soon sobered up, found Gu Shaoyi and asked Gu Shaoyi to go to Shen Mansion to propose marriage.

Aunt Song was also present at the time, knowing that Shen Yanmo had married Ye Shaofu, she was also happy for her. Back then, Shen Yanmo, as Madam Hou, had taken care of their mother and daughter. She was a person who knew grace and was sincere. Happy for Shen Yanmo, he also advised Gu Chang: "If Mrs. Shen wanted to return to the Hou Mansion, she would not choose to leave. If you are good for Mrs. Shen, Brother Chang, you should bless her."

Brother Chang heard this and stared at her fiercely. He was anxious and said without a word: "You are afraid that someone will take the position of your wife in charge, so you don't want your wife to enter the house. You, like those people, are not good people. Loss. Madam was so good to you at the beginning." They were all white-eyed wolves, and Gu Chang ran out without looking back with tears in his eyes.

Aunt Song's eyes were slightly moist, she lowered her head and sobbed and explained, "Master Hou, my concubine doesn't mean this, but she just thinks that Madam is not doing well in the house."

Wu Changhou patted her on the shoulder: "I know that Brother Chang is still a child, and he is angry again. Don't worry about him, just wait for him to understand."

When Mrs. Gu heard about this, she murmured a few words, not clear, no one was charming, so anxious that she stood up on her own, and the maids were shocked and called Aunt Song and Gu Shaoyi.

Not knowing what Gu Shaoyi said, Mrs. Gu cried bitterly, and it took a long time before she stopped crying. To comfort Mrs. Gu, Gu Shaoyi went to the King's Mansion and saw Ye Shaofu. Knowing that Ye Shaofu had decided, he stopped persuading, put down the gift, and left.

King King’s Mansion was lively and festive. The maidservant and the young man were very busy, carrying water and sweeping, purifying the water, and hanging red lanterns and red silk outside the wall. The red happy characters were all over the courtyard, and the mansion of Norwegian University was overflowing with light. Color, more lively than the New Year.

Lynch stood on the chair, hung the red cloth silk and satin on the door, turned to Lin Feng and said, "Look how it is, isn't it crooked?"

Lin Feng took a step back, touched his chin and nodded in satisfaction: "It's just right." He said with a smile and passed the lantern in his hand, "Hang up this too. This time our master can do what we want, and we can do it too. Wait for the master to marry. Madam, let's also choose a good day. You marry Furong, I marry Qing'er, and have a pair of fat sons. Our life is also considered complete."

While he talked about the future, Lynch felt strange: "You said that the lady agreed to marry the prince, because there is no trace of joy in the house?"

Yesterday, I went to Shen Mansion to find Furong. Shen Mansion didn't pull red silk or hang lanterns, so I didn't see the meaning of marrying a daughter at all.

Lin Feng also felt strange: "You said so, it's really true." Madam does not want to marry the prince, can't it, the wife agreed, and the bride price is also accepted. One hundred and twenty-eight bride price, the first one in Kyoto, no Maybe regret it.

"Do you think Madam knows something?" Lin Qi pointed out.

Lin Feng pondered for a long while; "Impossible, if the wife knows, she won't agree to marry the father, the wife does not like high-profile, she is a person of peace, low-key behavior so as not to be made irresponsible. Tomorrow will be the big wedding. On the day of the day, you have to talk more, lest the Lord hears that you are unhappy and will punish you again."

Three days before the wedding, the bride and groom officials could not meet, so Ye Shaofu hadn't been to Shen's Mansion for three days, and he didn't know the situation in Shen's Mansion.

Hearing this, Lynch stopped talking and continued to hang the lantern.

Shen Fuzhong, Furong also asked this question: "Madam, tomorrow will be your wedding day with the prince, why don't you hang some red silk lanterns, it's so festive?"

Shen Yanmo glanced at her and smiled indifferently: "I'm a woman with a child, it's better to keep a low profile." One sentence dismissed Furong, fearing that Furong would think about it, and then said: "You go to the kitchen and tell Qinger. Let’s cook a few more tables today. Let’s get together. If we leave this Shen Mansion tomorrow, the days of freedom will be gone. Let’s have a good drink while we can still be the masters today."

Furong really thought that Shen Yanmo didn't want to be high-profile, so she went to the kitchen.

Shen Yanmo was afraid that the kitchen would be too busy, so he asked Yuhe, Qiuyue, and Dongxue to help, and took Liu's mother to clean up the things by herself.

Seeing Shen Yanmo marrying, Liu's mother happily closed her mouth from ear to ear. Everyone smiled a little and was naturally willing to help. Seeing that Shen Yanmo was packing things for the children, he was even more happy: "Prince Jing has nothing to say to his wife. If the wife can marry the prince, it is considered complete. It is a pity that the eldest son cannot come back. If you can see the girl marrying King Jing, I will be happy for the girl."

The eldest son Liu's mother is talking about is Shen Yuanan.

Shen Yanmo didn't think so. If his elder brother knew what King Jing was doing, he would not only disagree, but would beat King Jing. Even if he sacrificed his life, his elder brother wouldn't let himself be wronged.

Shen Yanmo remained silent and kept tidying up his clothes.

Seeing her upset, Mother Liu couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Madam, is this scared?"

Shen Yanmo shook her head, what is she afraid of, is she afraid of King Jing, or is she afraid of the gossip of Kyoto, after tomorrow, she will leave Kyoto, the right and wrong of this Kyoto, no matter what is wrong with her, what is she afraid of? .

The two packed their things for a while, and Furong came in with a smile, saying that the noodles were ready, and asked Shen Yanmo when to start the noodles?

Shen Yanmo put the last book in the box, looked at her, and smiled, "Wait a little longer. I am happy today. Let's celebrate with a little wine. The pharmacy put a jar of wine. I brewed it myself, and it's ready for dinner."

Furong was afraid that Shen Yanmo would not be able to hold it, so she wanted to help Shen Yanmo.

Shen Yanmo paused for a while before agreeing: "It's on the left side of the medicine cabinet. I looked at it a few days ago and I can drink it."

Furong turned and smiled and went to fetch the wine.

The banquet was held in the Flower Hall. At the end of August, the weather was not too cold.

There are not many people in Shen's Mansion. Counting the guards, the concierge, and the maidservant, there are only thirty people. Furong counted the number of people and made five tables of noodles, because there was a secret guard left by Ye Shaofu, who was responsible for protecting the safety of Brother Yao. According to Shen Yanmo's instructions, he also let them drink some wine and drink less. Will not delay business.

After returning from Quancheng Mountain Resort, he had experienced five or six assassinations. Ye Shaofu would not be relieved if he hadn't been guarded by a secret guard.

This is also the reason why Shen Yanmo invited them to drink. If they don't let everyone down, how can they leave safely.

When the lanterns were in hand, the flower hall was full of people. In the autumn season, the sky gradually became shorter, the night grew longer, and the night came early.

Shen Yanmo asked Dongxue and Qiuyue to fill everyone with wine, got up and raised the glass, scanned the crowd, and said some words of gratitude and exclamation.

Everyone also got up and raised their glasses to congratulate Shen Yanmo on her wedding.

"Eat and drink well, and feel free tonight." After speaking, Shen Yanmo sat down and looked at the crowd with a smile.

She is usually pleasant, not reprimanding or embarrassing to leave. People are grateful, and she can let go at this moment. The cups and plates are not stopped. You are happy, I am happy, this is a joke, that one is a happy one, and one glance The wine quickly bottomed out.

Yan Qing picked up the wine glass and looked at Shen Yanmo suspiciously. He always felt that something big happened today, and the wine tasted wrong tonight. She didn't dare to drink, pretending to drink a few sips, and seeing everyone drunk, followed by lying on the table.

When the chatting laughter calmed down, Shen Yanmo shouted to the outside: "Qing breeze?"

As the name suggests, the person of Qingfeng, like a gust of wind, silently fell in front of Shen Yanmo: "Please greet the lady, but let the lady order."

"Let people send these people back to the room, let's get ready to leave, too." There was a bit of reluctance in the words.

Yan Qing stood up abruptly and looked straight at Shen Yanmo: "Where are you going, madam?"

Shen Yanmo was surprised, walked to Yan Qing's side, made sure she was well, not sleepwalking, and answered the wrong question: "Why didn't you sleep?"

"I am a cook, with a keen sense of taste, I can taste things that no one else can taste. Today's wine tastes wrong, I didn't drink it." After saying that, Yan Qing took a step forward and grabbed Shen Yanmo's sleeve with both hands, "Madam Haven't answered me yet, ma'am, where are you going?"

"Kyoto is a place of right and wrong. If we stay again, both my children and I will be hurt. Therefore, I want to leave, naturally where I come from and where I go." Shen Yanmo answered calmly, reaching out and touching Yan Qing's face. "I know that Lin Feng is affectionate to you, he is a person worthy of trust. I am very relieved of you, so I left you. Tell me, don't blame me for leaving without saying goodbye, I have lasting difficulties."

"Yan Qing is willing to follow Madam forever." Yan Qing knelt on her knees, raised her head to look at Shen Yanmo, her eyes were full of determination, and her attitude was even more determined.

"But Lin Feng..." Shen Yanmo didn't know how to persuade him, "I hope you can have a good life."

Yan Qing burst into tears: "Yan Qing just wants to follow his wife. Wherever the wife goes, Yan Qing will go wherever she goes. Yan Qing's life was given by the wife."

"Qing'er, I can't be too selfish, so..." Shen Yanmo winked at Qing Feng.

Qingfeng nodded, walked behind Yan Qing and tapped her on the back of her neck. Yan Qing collapsed to the ground.

"Madam, let's leave as soon as possible. If it's too late, the city gate should be closed." Qingfeng urged, turned to greet his companions, and hugged Yao's brother and left the flower hall.

Shen Yanmo gave Dongxue and Mother Liu an antidote. The two woke up at a leisurely pace and saw that the table was empty. They were puzzled: "Madam, what's the matter, why did we fall asleep?"

"Don't ask, take something and follow me." Shen Yanmo left the flower hall first and walked towards the yard where he lived.

Until they got into the carriage, Dongxue and Mother Liu were still in the mist. You look at me and I look at you. They couldn’t figure out Shen Yanmo’s plan. They asked: "Madam, what is going on, tomorrow you will I'm going to marry the prince, where are we going in the middle of the night?"

Shen Yanmo did not answer: "Don't ask, I will naturally tell you when I get to the place."

Tomorrow Qiuyue will be the first to wake up, see the letter, and do what she tells.

I hope Ye Shaofu will like this gift.

The night was long, and the carriage at the back door of Shen Mansion slowly drove away from the quiet alley towards the south gate of Kyoto. The street was quiet and no one, and occasionally there were a few crying children, accompanied by dog ​​barking.

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Shaofu woke up early, washed well, put on the groom's robes, rode a tall horse, smiled on his face, and led the marriage team to the gate of Shen's mansion.

Lin Qilin Feng saw that there was no one in front of the gate of Shen's Mansion, and the gate was closed, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Ye Shaofu didn't realize it, and asked Lin Qilin Feng to knock the door forward. Lin Qilin Feng, dressed in a brand-new brocade robe, still walked, walked up the steps, grabbed the iron ring to buckle the door, and soon came out in an autumn moon, with no joy on his face, looking at Ye Shaofu as if he had seen the enemy: "Why did the lord come to the door? ?"

This was asked knowingly.

Seeing Qiuyue coming out, Ye Shaofu was relieved, jumped off his horse and stepped forward, raised his chin slightly, smiled and said to Qiuyue: "Tell your wife, Yemou will come to marry her, please ask her to come out."

Qiuyue took out a letter from her sleeve cage and handed it to Ye Shaofu: "Please forgive me, my wife, my wife has traveled all over the world, and the return date is uncertain."

Ye Shaofu laughed heartily, and took Xinwu to open it: "Madam is really good at making jokes. You can't make such jokes on a happy day."

Qiuyue looked at him coldly and said nothing.

Ye Shaofu opened the letter and read it earnestly, only four sentences, but his mind was lost, his chest rolled like a sea wave, blood rushed to his forehead, he snorted, spouted a mouthful of blood, and stained the letter in his hand red.

"Madam, you are so cruel." The words fell straight back.
