The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

"You've already taken away the money, what can I do?" Xue Jingyu said angrily, "I'm just more filial than you."

Seeing her like this, Xue Fu felt very guilty: "Don't worry, my brother will make up the money as soon as possible and will never delay your marriage."

When she heard the word "marriage", Xue Jingyu's face turned red, she got up and left with a sigh.

When he came out of the study, Xue Fu's young man, Wan'an, walked towards him.

This was a coincidence, saving her the effort of finding someone. Xue Jingyu stopped him: "When you went to deliver money to Mrs. Ning Hui today, did anyone see you?"

She asked this skillfully, and Wan An would immediately get the wrong idea and become nervous: "Miss, can't people see her? But there are people everywhere in Mingche, and there are many people who saw her."

It seems that the money was indeed given to Ye Yuxiao, and there were many witnesses. Xue Jingyu smiled with satisfaction: "You did a good job. The eldest young master just told me that it is best to be seen by others, lest your good intentions turn into private favors."

Well, he thought he had done something wrong and was shocked. Wan An finally felt relieved.

Xue Jingyu returned to the backyard without stopping to find Yan.

Mrs. Yan was drinking a drink to soothe the fire. When he saw her, he asked: "See your brother? What did he do with the money?"

Xue Jingyu didn't answer, but asked something irrelevant: "Mom, what do you think of Ye Yuxiao?"

"Ye Yuxiao?" Mrs. Yan tilted her head and looked at the whip wounds on her neck. "She can whip you like this with just one whip. What do you think of her?"

"But I heard that she is only domineering towards outsiders and always takes great care of her own family." Xue Jingyu touched her neck and said.

"Maybe." Mrs. Yan didn't care. "If she hadn't been outstanding, Ouyang Sheng wouldn't have reunited with her before."

"She is also pitiful. The Xinyang Marquis Mansion is a poor settlement. The only one she and Li can rely on is Pingnan Prince's Mansion, but something happened to Pingnan Prince's Mansion again." Xue Jingyu picked up the tea brought by the maid and showed sympathy.

"You are so kind-hearted. She hurt you like this and you still pity her." Mrs. Yan nodded her forehead, "I heard that Prince Pingnan was wrongly accused of collaborating with the enemy. Now he is just waiting for the last step. With the evidence, the charges can be cleared. Ye Yuxiao and Li Hou also sealed Mrs. Ning Hui. Her glorious days are behind her, so there is no need for you to pity her."

Xue Jingyu watched as Yan was being led out to speak step by step, and she pursed her lips and smiled: "Since Ye Yuxiao is not a bad person and has a good family background, why don't you marry her back and be my sister-in-law?"

Mrs. Yan thought she was joking and glared at her: "What are you talking about? How can your brother, an innocent man, marry someone who has been married twice, no matter how good his family background and character are."

"If she hadn't been married twice, how would she get my brother?" Xue Jingyu said softly.

"Xue Jingyu!" Yan raised her voice, "The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes!"

"Mom, don't be upset, there are no outsiders here, let's not worry about face." Xue Jingyu leaned forward and approached the Yan family, as if she was confiding in her heart, "Pingnan Prince's Mansion has a hereditary title, and there are two generals in the town. Even if he is now accused of collaborating with the enemy, the Emperor has never taken away General Gu Er's military power."

"As for our family, my grandfather has been aloof and arrogant all his life. He has left neither a foundation nor much wealth for our family. Although my brother has a criminal record and is the number one scholar, what's so strange about the number one scholar being awarded every three years?"

"Although your words are good, your brother is a civil servant and they are military generals. Even if they are married, it will not help." Yan was very reluctant to admit that her family was worse than Prince Pingnan's palace, but this was a fact, and she could only refute it from other places. .

"But the emperor will be happy." Xue Jingyu said.

"Your Majesty?" Yan was puzzled.

"The emperor does not want Prince Pingnan to get married to Lord Ouyang, otherwise he would not have decreed a divorce. If my brother marries Ye Yuxiao, eliminating the possibility of her getting back together with Lord Ouyang, the emperor will definitely be very happy and look at my brother differently." Xue Jingyu said.

Is this what the emperor thinks? Yan didn't know. But she knew that since Xue Jingyu returned to Beijing, she had met the emperor several times in private, so she was doubtful and did not dare to deny her words easily.

Xue Jingyu saw that the Yan family was wavering and quickly struck while the iron was hot: "Mom, before Prince Pingnan's charges are completely cleared, act quickly, otherwise, when they turn over, it will not be our turn? You dislike Ye Yu? Xiao is remarried, but there are many people who don't dislike her."

Indeed, when marrying a wife from a wealthy family, the first thing to look at is the family background, the second thing is the concubine, and the next thing is the character and appearance... As for whether it is the first marriage or not, I don't know where it ranks.

Yan was already moved, but hesitated: "You have already formed a relationship with Ye Yuxiao. Even if we propose marriage, she will not agree."

Naturally, you won't agree to it through normal channels. People always have to be forced. Xue Jingyu smiled and leaned close to Yan's ear...

##########It snowed again in the capital. It was completely white, but the weather was sunny. The sun was hanging on the treetops. Although there was no warmth, it was bright everywhere.

Ye Yuxiao was in a good mood. When he went to Mingche in the morning, he got off the carriage at the entrance of the alley, wanting to experience the feeling of walking on the snow.

The injuries of the twenty-three seriously injured people have all improved and they are expected to go home for the New Year. This is a great event and the source of her good mood.

Almost all the maids stayed in Mingche, with only Xiao Zuan accompanying them. This child was very playful, but he had no one to accompany him, so he had to make snowballs and throw them at the children passing by.

The children were hit by snowballs, but they didn't fight back and just ran towards the alley.

Ye Yuxiao looked strange and asked, "Why are you running?"

"Getting a wife! Getting a wife! Mr. Xue is here to get a wife! Come and watch the fun!"

The children were shouting, but before they could finish their words, they were already running away.

Master Xue? Get a wife? Ye Yuxiao carefully recalled the neighbors in Anding Lane. It seemed that apart from the old couple, there were young couples. Where did the big girl ask Mr. Xue to marry a wife?

Xiaozhan urged her excitedly: "Madam, come quickly, let's go and be happy."

"Then prepare the gifts. We are all neighbors, so we must follow suit." Ye Yuxiao nodded and quickened his pace.

After a hundred steps, the two of them were stunned.

Why does that crowded place, covered with a red carpet and filled with red lacquered litter boxes, look so clear?

Ye Yuxiao was a little stunned: "Among the patients in Mingche's hospital, there seems to be a family of two girls waiting to be married?"

"They haven't been discharged from the hospital yet, how can they get married? Besides, even if they are discharged from the hospital, they shouldn't get into the sedan chair here." Xiaozhan said, stretching his neck and looking at it a few more times, "No, this is not a wedding posture, but more like It’s a betrothal gift.”

Regardless of whether he was getting married or paying a betrothal gift, how could he be in Mingche? Ye Yuxiao suddenly realized: "Could it be that Kong Mingyue is getting married?"

"Didn't you listen to the letter beforehand?" Xiaozhan looked confused.
