Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system
Chapter 155 Don’t be a second cousin 4
"Your Majesty, I and my daughter-in-law are deeply moved by your sympathy. I and my daughter-in-law are willing to donate these thousand taels of gold to build a bridge in Jianing." Aunt Lin took the imperial edict with both hands and quickly arranged a place for the thousand taels of gold.
"Mrs. Joan of Arc's kindness is commendable. I will report the truth to the Holy Majesty." Kong Shangli bowed towards the capital. "The craftsmen who built the archway have been in place. The Qintian Supervisor has also selected an auspicious day, and the construction can start in three days."
"In addition, Lu Yu has been punished, and the Holy Emperor has also demoted Princess Jingmin to the county lord. The Queen Mother has also issued an edict to reprimand County Princess Jingmin, and strictly ordered the Princess Jingmin not to return to Jianing unless there is any serious matter. Madams, steps. If you give it to me, then it’s the right thing to do."
"Yes. I and my daughter-in-law understand."
Kong Shangli saw that the Lin family was interested and left with satisfaction.
"Jiuniang, you have to stay with me when you are suffering." After Kong Shangli left, Aunt Lin held Lin Jiu and shed tears.
Originally, the underworld marriage for my niece and son was just a temporary measure. My niece was still so young, so how could she suffer as much as she did?
The Song Dynasty did not force women to observe moral integrity. After the death of her husband, if a woman wanted to remarry, her husband's family was not allowed to stop her for any reason.
But if a woman sets up a chastity memorial, she can only remain a widow for the rest of her life and is not allowed to remarry.
Generally speaking, a chastity memorial arch requires a woman to observe chastity for at least twenty years. The woman's natal family applies for it, the county magistrate submits it, and then the chastity memorial arch can be established only after the above-mentioned assessment.
But now, neither Aunt Lin nor Lin Jiu has reached this standard at all, and the Lin family will not ask for such an oppressive thing for the girls in the clan. These two chastity archways seemed to be an honor to Aunt Lin and Lin Jiu, but in fact they were not a disguised warning.
"Aunt, mother. Since I chose to marry my cousin secretly, I never thought about marrying anyone else again. This memorial arch may be a constraint for other women and a big mountain that weighs on them. But for me and my two children, He said, it is a talisman for me and my child. From now on, if Princess Lu Yu and Princess Jingmin want to deal with me and my child, they have to weigh it in their hearts."
The next morning, Lu Yu walked to the Lin Mansion carrying a thorn stick on his back, kneeling every five steps and buckling every ten steps.
"Unfilial son Lu Yu respectfully welcomes his mother's eldest sister-in-law home." Outside the Lin Mansion, Lu Yu only wore an undershirt and carried a thorn stick on his back. Every time he shouted, he kowtowed.
This Lu Yu was very cruel to him. Now Lu Yu's forehead had been bruised and his forehead was covered in blood and flesh.
Outside the Lin Mansion, people were already crowding around.
"Gah."
The door of Lin Mansion opened, and Lin's father, Lin Yuan, walked out of Lin Mansion.
"My nephew is paying homage to my uncle. My nephew is unfilial and has made my mother angry. Please ask my uncle to punish me." When Lu Yu saw Lin Yuan coming out, he knelt down and untied the thorns from his back and handed it to Lin Yuan with both hands.
Lin Yuan took the thorn stick, whipped Lu Yu three times on the back, and then threw the thorn stick aside.
"Lin Fu, go see your aunt and the eldest lady, you can take care of things."
"Yes."
A quarter of an hour later, Lin Jiu supported Aunt Lin, and Lin Yu walked out of the door holding her nephew Lu Han.
"My son respectfully invites his mother to return home."
When Lu Yu saw Aunt Lin coming out, no matter whether he wanted to or not, he had no choice but to kowtow respectfully.
"Little sister, Jiuniang, please go back to the Lu Mansion with peace of mind. If anyone dares to bully you, just ask someone to tell me, and my brother will make the decision for you." Lin Yuan turned to look at Lin Yu, "How can I send your aunt and little sister away?" If anything goes wrong on the way back, my father will ask you."
"Father, don't worry. My son will have a good time and send his aunt and little sister back home."
"My child bids farewell to his father. It's because he is unfilial to worry about his father." Lin Jiu bowed to Lin Yuan Yingying and then got into the carriage with his two children.
Lin Yu got on his horse and stayed with the carriage until the carriage returned to the Lu Mansion and settled his aunt and sister before returning to the Lin Mansion.
A month later, the two archways were completed. On the day when the archways were completed, Aunt Lin divided the Lu family's property under the witness of the Lu clan leader and several clan elders. Although Lu Qi died, as the eldest son with successors, according to etiquette, he should be divided into seven shares. As the second brother, Lu Yu only received three thirds of the family property. Aunt Lin made it clear that all her private property and dowry would be left to her niece Jiuniang a hundred years later.
In Lu Yu's heart, originally the Lu family's property and the dowries of Aunt Lin and Lin Jiuniang belonged to him, but now not only did he not get their dowries, he even received only a tenth of the Lu family's property. Third, this result made him very unhappy.
But it happened that both of them had official titles now. Once something happened to these two people, everyone would be closely related to him. He had no way to deal with them now.
Lu Yu returned to the west courtyard with a calm expression.
Aunt Wen was kneeling in the flower hall of the west courtyard picking beans. When she saw Lu Yu coming, Aunt Wen glanced at Lu Yu with hope, but at this time Lu Yu turned a blind eye to the concubine whom he once regarded as his heart.
"My husband is back." When Princess Jingmin saw Lu Yu, she quickly stepped forward and hugged him, "My husband is not happy?"
"That old woman is only willing to give me 30% of the family property." Lu Yu felt full of grievances.
"Too deceiving."
"The etiquette is like this, but I am just an heir. In the heart of the old woman, naturally I am not as good as her dead son and niece. I have been used to suffering since I was a child, but in the future I will be wronged by the princess and me."
"As long as I can be with Lu Lang, what's the point of suffering a little grievance?"
"The county lord."
"Lu Lang."
The two of them rolled up the sheets directly in the small cubicle in the flower hall.
"Someone, bring water in."
"What are you still doing? You didn't hear the county horse asking for water. You haven't brought the water in yet." The nun next to Princess Jingmin pushed Aunt Wen and pushed her to the ground.
Aunt Wen staggeredly brought the water in, then knelt down in front of Princess Jingmin and served her carefully.
"Touch." Aunt Wen was kicked to the ground by Princess Jingmin.
"A clumsy thing."
"Princess, please calm down. Princess, please calm down."
"Auntie Gui, this bitch doesn't understand the rules. Take her down and train her properly."
"Yes."
After a while, the former nun dragged Aunt Wen out with two sturdy maids.
"She's just a cheap servant. If you don't like her, just find someone to sell her to. Don't get so angry." Lu Yu inserted a pearl hairpin on Princess Jingmin's head.
"As long as Lu Lang doesn't feel bad."
"You are a cheap maid, what do I have to feel sorry for? Even if I feel sorry for my husband, I still feel sorry for you, the princess."
"Ouch~ Oh my god! This Lu Yu is too greasy! He is even greasier than the modern greasy-headed men who specialize in acting."
"I don't know how you can be so gossipy about a system. Now that you're done, you must have made yourself sick!" Lin Jiu was amused. It could make the system feel greasy, which shows how greasy Lu Yu is.
"Host, who am I doing all this hard work for?"
