Red House Reorganization Family
Chapter 98
Back at Lin's house, Jiang Wen took Lin Daiyu straight to the main courtyard, and when You Tingyu saw his mother and younger sister coming back, he immediately stood up to greet him.Jiang Wen asked her to get up, and then looked at a few more strangers in the main room.
Those people were standing cautiously, now seeing the noble lady's eyes on them, the young lady immediately pulled her younger brother to kneel down to pay her respects, and then introduced herself: "Little girl Yu Chunxiao, this is my younger brother Tianyi , We are descendants of the Yu family in Nanlin County, Gusu, and the late Mrs. Jiang is the aunt and grandmother of our siblings." Then he talked about the current situation of the family.
Jiang Wen looked at her in plain clothes, her movements were delicate and soft when she knelt down, and her eyes were foggy, subconsciously she felt a little displeased.
And that young man seemed to be very dependent on his sister, his eyes were always watching his sister's actions, and his behavior was a little cautious.
As for the servants of their siblings, they seem to be a family, the middle-aged man and the servant looked honest and friendly, but the woman and the young maid kept rolling their eyes back and forth, obviously very restless.
Jiang Wen has always been unwilling to characterize people based on the first impression, but these people really don't feel good to her, so her attitude doesn't seem too gentle, but rather serious to make them stand up.
Regardless of their restraint, they cross-examined: "It stands to reason that I shouldn't doubt it, but I haven't had any contact with the Yu family for many years since my grandmother passed away. How do you prove your identity?"
The mother-in-law of the Yu family immediately took out a stack of papers from the package and sent them up. Jiang Wen turned her head and signaled to the little maid beside her, who immediately stepped forward to stop the old woman from approaching, and took it from her hand.
The old woman looked a little embarrassed, but she didn't dare to reveal anything, but shrugged her shoulders and retreated behind Yu Chunxiao.
Jiang Wen took the paper handed over by the maid, flipped through it and saw that it was the guide of Yu Chunxiao's sister and brother. Dressing up, presumably there is no ability to make the government fake it.
But she didn't return it, but put these things in her hand, and thought about it in her heart. If what they said was true, wouldn't the relationship between the siblings and her be cousins? !
Although they are relatives of thousands of miles away, Lin Chen and Lin Daiyu suddenly have two more elders, which is not a pleasant thing.
Yu Chunxiao held his younger brother's hand, feeling uneasy in his heart. Unable to bear the pressure, tears welled up in his eyes. He could only endure it stubbornly, and accidentally squeezed Yu Tianyi's hand in pain.
Yu Tianyi didn't dare to breathe out, but the sudden hiss in the quiet room was still very obvious.
Jiang Wen came back to his senses and saw that the two were still standing together restrainedly, and said, "Sit down, don't be nervous."
There was a grateful smile on Yu Chunxiao's face, there seemed to be tears in his eyes, and coupled with his good looks, he seemed a little pitiful.
"I've already read the stuff, now tell me, why did you come from Gusu?"
Yu Chunxiao choked up, and two tears fell from his eyes, as if he wanted to say a thousand words.
"Mrs. Lin," the woman of the Yu family was impatient. Seeing that her young lady was silent, she immediately said, "We are desperate..."
"Presumptuous!" Mrs. Qing Zhi took a look, and immediately took a step forward, and shouted: "My wife is asking Miss Yu, how can you, a servant, have the right to interrupt?"
After all, Qing Zhi is Jiang Wen's big servant girl. Although she usually loves to laugh and is kind, she still looks decent in front of strangers. As soon as she said this, the woman knelt down on the ground in fear.
Seeing this, Yu Chunxiao knelt beside her and begged for mercy: "Ma'am, Madam Li also broke the rules in a moment of impatience. Please forgive her a lot." The rest of the Yu family also knelt on the ground.
When the master kneels down for a servant who has no rules, Jiang Wen saw this for the first time in many years, shook his head and said: "Since there are no rules, the master must teach the rules. This is the capital, and now it is only in our Here, if you cause trouble elsewhere, you will regret it."
"The little girl is incompetent..." Yu Chunxiao sobbed again and again.
He couldn't even understand a word, Jiang Wen was really speechless, turned to look at Yu Tianyi, saw that although he was young, he hadn't cried, so he said to him: "Stand up and answer."
Yu Tianyi glanced carefully at Mrs. Lin, then at his sister who was still crying, and stretched out his hand to pull her up.
Several servants of the Yu family also wanted to get up, and Qing Zhi immediately said sternly: "If you don't have rules, you have to learn to know the rules. Madam didn't tell you to get up, so you are not allowed to get up."
And those people immediately knelt down again. Yu Chunxiao asked for mercy when she saw this, but Yu Tianyi grabbed her sister's arm tightly, and then replied to Mrs. Lin: "Madam, our parents died in an accident a few years ago. At that time, my sister's marriage was postponed, and there was no news of my sister's fiancé who went to Beijing for the exam the year before last, so we went to Beijing to look for him after the filial piety, but..."
Yu Chunxiao couldn't cry anymore, and he couldn't even stand still. You Tingyu glanced at her mother-in-law, and seeing her as if she didn't see her, he silently swallowed the words he wanted to say.
It just so happened that someone knocked on the door and came in at this time, and after greeting the master, he reported: "Grandma, the young master is awake."
Jiang Wen looked at You Tingyu, and said: "Go back first, and arrange a yard for their siblings..." After a pause, he said: "Arrange two more sensible servants."
Upon hearing this, You Tingyu responded respectfully, and then went out.Then Jiang Wen signaled Yu Tianyi to continue.
"But after we found it, we found out that that person was admitted to the same Jinshi, and married a lady from an official family in Beijing. At this time, he has been released." The more Yu Tianyi said, the more angry he became. Started to tremble, "Our siblings really can't help it. I remembered that I heard that your family is in Beijing, so I came here to join..."
Jiang Wen didn't show his expression, and didn't express sympathy or other things to them, but asked, "Where is the marriage certificate?"
Yu Tianyi nodded, and it was still Nanny Li who took out Yu Chunxiao's marriage certificate.Qing Zhi nodded to his wife, went to take it in person, and said: "Take out anything else together."
Nanny Li shook her head, swallowed her saliva and said nervously, "No, no more."
Qing Zhi turned around to look at his wife, Jiang Wen knocked on the table with his index finger, it would be fine if this servant was a loyal old slave like Su Momo, but he was restless when he saw it like this, so he said coldly: " Since there are only a few of you left in your family, you must have brought all your wealth with you, if you trust me, why not entrust your belongings to me for safekeeping, so as not to be deceived by your unfamiliarity."
When Nanny Li heard this, she subconsciously grabbed her bag, "Miss?!"
But Yu Chunxiao said indifferently: "Grandma, just take it out, Madam is also kind." What's more, no matter how stupid she is, she knows that Madam Lin will definitely look down on their family wealth.
However, Nanny Li's movements were still procrastinating, and the little maid beside her also looked nervous. Seeing this, Qing Zhi called another woman over and snatched the package directly, only to find that there were only a few dozen taels inside. Silver and some copper coins.
Yu Chunxiao was still a little ignorant, but Yu Tianyi's eyes widened directly, and then he turned his head and asked, "Why is there only so little?!"
When Jiang Wen heard this, she raised her eyebrows. Her behavior just now was indeed a bit domineering, but it was purely because she didn't trust that woman. Didn't expect something to happen?
And Yu Chunxiao finally realized that when they went out, they thought that she was going to get married, so they sold all their family property. There were thousands of taels of silver, how could there be only these left?
The two siblings scolded angrily and questioned each other tearfully. Nanny Li explained in a panic: "The servant is really wronged. The cost of the journey is very high. The young lady and the young master are still young. How do you know the difficulties? The servant is heartbroken. ah!"
But the siblings were overwhelmed by the old woman's manipulation, and they even felt a little shaken in their hearts.
After hearing this, Jiang leaned on his chin and tilted his head to listen, and he made things clear, but the more he listened, the more speechless he became. The master didn't manage the money by himself, but was sternly controlled by a servant.
"Mother?" Lin Daiyu heard that they were noisy, turned her head and asked in a low voice: "Are you going to let them do this?"
There are only such a pair of sisters and brothers left in the Yu family. Even for Jiang Mingyi's face, Jiang Wen can't ignore it, but she doesn't like to bother to come into the house.
So Jiang Wen hooked his fingers at Qing Zhi directly, and said: "Take it down, and search directly."
Nanny Li was shocked, and immediately pulled Yu Chunxiao and said: "Miss, even if we are poor relatives, we don't have to be abused like this! You are the master of the slave!"
Yu Chunxiao looked at Mrs. Lin in embarrassment. Jiang Wen was too lazy to listen to her and asked Qing Zhi to explain.
And Qingzhi took a step forward, and said to the Yu family sisters and brothers: "Although it is a long way from Gusu to the capital and it costs a lot, but according to what Miss Yu and Young Master Yu just said, a few thousand taels of silver will definitely not be needed, so it must be It's this woman who is greedy for ink."
Yu Chunxiao looked at Qingzhi and Nanny Li in disbelief, his eyes were full of hurt. After hearing this, Yu Tianyi thought of their hardships along the way, and the wavering in his heart immediately disappeared. He pulled his sister behind him, and said angrily: "Go search!"
Qingzhi asked people to pull down the few people who were still struggling, and the room was very quiet except for Yu Chunxiao's sobbing. Jiang Wen suddenly asked: "Shouldn't they sell the deed and let them keep it?"
Yu Chunxiao shook his head, then looked at his younger brother, while Yu Tianyi touched the skirt of his clothes, and replied, "No, I've been putting it in the middle of the clothes."
"It's not too stupid." Jiang Wen turned over a cup, Lin Daiyu immediately got up and picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for her mother. Jiang Wen smiled at her, and then said to the siblings: "Since you have come to join me For my grandmother's sake, I won't let you wander outside. But I'm ugly to say that none of our Lin family members and my son's uncle live in the Lin family. If I keep you for the time being, Be sensible and don't cause any trouble, or I will blame me for being ruthless."
The two siblings nodded together, promising not to cause trouble.
Jiang Wen nodded in satisfaction, took a sip of tea, and said, "As for what you said, I will find out."
Those people were standing cautiously, now seeing the noble lady's eyes on them, the young lady immediately pulled her younger brother to kneel down to pay her respects, and then introduced herself: "Little girl Yu Chunxiao, this is my younger brother Tianyi , We are descendants of the Yu family in Nanlin County, Gusu, and the late Mrs. Jiang is the aunt and grandmother of our siblings."
