Chapter 96

At this time, ape ran out with a thump: "girl, my wife woke up."

Ye Lingjiao glanced at Ye Yun coldly. She felt that she had nothing to say to him: "sister Tang, let's go!"

Ye Tangcai didn't even look at him, so he turned and left with Ye Lingjiao.

When they returned to the room, they saw Wen struggling to get up with mother Cai's body.

"Mother!" Ye Tangcai rushed over.

"Let's go home!" Wen's face turned pale and smiled miserably.

"Well, I'll ask the groom to bring the carriage now. Mom, lie down first." Ye Tangcai promised that Qiuju was smart and had run out.

Wen lay back in bed and closed his eyes again. Soon there was a sound of a carriage driving into the courtyard. Mother Cai carried Wen on her back and put it on the carriage.

The people were busy for a while, and the carriage had to go away.

Ye Yun watched them busy moving people to the car and other matters, but no one paid attention to himself. Seeing the carriage disappearing at the corner of the door, the whole person was not well.

The carriage walked for a quarter of an hour and stopped at the Chuihua gate of the Marquis of Jing'an.

Ye Lingjiao asked the servant to carry the soft sedan and sent Wen back to Ronggui hospital. He took the sign to the Taiyi hospital and asked the Taiyi doctor.

The imperial doctor came to examine the pulse, said something similar to the doctors in the herbal medicine hall, looked at the medicine prescribed by the doctors in the herbal medicine hall, reduced the longan, and let the blood swallow be raised two or two a day. I just went out.

On the bed, heavy curtains hung down. Wen lay on the bed and closed his eyes, but ye Tangcai knew that she was not asleep.

Ye Tangcai sat by the bed, and ye Lingjiao and mammy Cai stood together.

"Niang... Sorry, I shouldn't have let you pass." As he spoke, ye Tangcai's eyes turned red, and his big eyes were full of tears.

"No..." Wen opened his eyes and smiled with a white face: "thank you. Let me... See clearly. I've been thinking and guessing all these years. I'm so tired... Really tired! Now... Don't guess his heart. "

Then he smiled bitterly, and tears kept sliding out of the corners of his eyes.

"Madam, it's better to have a long pain than a short one. Let's live plainly in the future, huh“ Mother Cai said with tears in her eyes.

"Yes." Wen said, sobbing again.

See clearly, see clearly, the heart is dead, but the heart is still in pain, uncontrollable tears. Everything can only be given to time.

Ye Tang picked the big stone in his heart and put it down.

Today, I came to Songhua lane to let her stupid brother see Yan tingniang's true face, and to let her see ye Chengde's true face.

Finally, my mother saw it clearly, but she was so angry that she vomited blood. It was really shocking. Ye Tangcai wondered if he had done wrong.

Now hearing Wen's words, ye Tangcai was relieved at last.

"Don't worry, sister Tang. I'll be fine." Wen said with a strong smile, "today, I held it in my heart for a long time, and finally said it. I will live well! Don't say anything else, just for this hatred, I can't die! Dead, isn't it to make room for the outer room? I will never let them down! "

"Yes, madam, that's right." Mammy Tsai agreed.

"In the future, sister-in-law will only treat him as dead. We all stand on your side." Ye Lingjiao said.

Ye Tangcai pursed her lips and lowered her eyes. In fact, she wanted her mother to stay with Ye Chengde.

"Madam, the medicine is ready." Nianqiao comes in with a tray on which is a bowl of black medicine.

Ye Tangcai helped Wen to feed the medicine. Wen closed his eyes and was ready to rest.

"Girl, the old lady wants you to go there." A servant girl from Anning hall came over.

Ye Ling nodded, "sister-in-law, sister Tang, I'll go first."

"OK." Ye Tangcai nodded.

After ye Lingjiao left, ye Tangcai asked nianqiao to look after Wen, so he took mother CAI and whispered, "mother, you come with me."

Mother CAI was stunned, so she had to follow ye Tangcai and they came to Xici room.

"Mammy, where is my mother's dowry list?" Ye Tang adopts a low voice channel.

"Dowry list?" Mother Cai frowned, "why did the girl suddenly ask this? My wife's dowry list disappeared many years ago. "

"How did it disappear?" Ye Tangcai is not good for the whole person.

"Many years ago, when the girl was just engaged, the wife was ready to prepare a dowry for the girl, so she went to the small warehouse to count things, but she couldn't find the dowry list. Without a list, you can't count it naturally. I had to make another record myself. "

"But that's not the original." Ye Tangcai's face was livid. "Is there anything missing?"

"The quantity is too much. There is no list. Who can't remember what he saw. However, my memory is very deep. It is true that a red flame blood jade bracelet is missing. My wife was cold when she was young. Your grandmother spent a lot of money on this bracelet. It has the effect of warming up and protecting her body. It is very valuable. The wife has been wearing it since she got married. When the girl was seven or eight years old, she almost broke her bracelet, so she was not willing to wear it again. She wanted to leave it to the girl as a dowry. So the bracelet was locked back in the small warehouse. There was no dowry list at that time, but you still had to prepare your dowry, so you went to find the bracelet, but you couldn't find it. "

Mother Cai said with a look of hate: "I don't know who has been hurt by thousands of knives has touched here! Later, a heavy iron general was replaced in the small warehouse. By the way, girl, why do you ask the dowry list? "

Ye Tang said, "didn't I love to play in the warehouse for a while when I was a child?"

"Yes." Mother Cai said with an angry look at Ye Tang, "I don't know how your cerebellar bag melon turns. Other girls love to chase butterflies and feed fish in the garden. You prefer to count your wife's dowry in the warehouse."

"Facts have proved that I was right when I was young." Ye Tangcai smiled, "no, I have written down a lot of things. A pair of Lujun eight Leng string pattern bottles and a white jade rabbit are both my mother's dowry, but today, I saw them on Yin tingniang's Bogu rack. "

"You, what did you say?" Mother Cai exclaimed.

"Shh!" Ye Tangcai immediately covered her mouth, "keep your voice down, my mother is still resting."

Surprised, Mammy Cai quickly turned back to look at the bedroom. She saw nianqiao standing in the Pearl curtain of the bedroom, not looking here. Mother Tsai breathed a sigh of relief and then clenched her teeth. That bastard, let's keep the outer room. He took his wife's things to fill in the bitch!

"The girl really saw it clearly." Mother Tsai hurried.

"See clearly, you can't be wrong." Ye Tangcai nodded, "how can there be such a coincidence in the world? Several things are the same as my mother's, but ye Chengde bought the permanent residence. "

"Good, good!" Mammy Tsai clenched her teeth and said angrily, "let's go to the old lady and the old lady and see how he explains such a shameless thing!"

The dowry is the private property of a woman's family. Since it is a husband, it can't be taken arbitrarily. If it is finer, it can be punished. But generally, such a thing is a family affair, and no one else will make it.

Ye Tangcai's eyes flashed a cold light and said, "we want to punish them, but we have to have a dowry list. Otherwise, just by ourselves, we open our mouth and say that things are mother. Who believes it?"

"Our dowry list is missing, but we have a share of it, one in my wife's hand and one in my mother's house. This is the list signed and printed by the two families during the wedding ceremony. It can't be relied on. " Mother Cai said.

"Since my grandfather's family has one, why didn't you go to my grandfather's house to find the list so that you could count things when you lost the list?" Ye Tangcai doesn't understand.

"Of course I did. It was your grandmother who kept the dowry list, but she was paralyzed and couldn't move or even speak in bed. " Mother Cai said with a slight sigh.

Ye Tangcai is speechless. What bad luck“ I'd better go to my grandfather's house and ask! "

"Girl, Mammy, you have something to eat first!" Qiuju came in with a food box in her hand: "it's past noon now."

"I forgot to be hungry. Put it on." Ye Tang adopts the emergency road“ Let's go to Wen's house while it's still early. "

Autumn orange was waiting, so he put the meals one by one on the round table in the small hall. Ye Tang said, "autumn orange and mammy also sit down and let's eat together."

Mother Cai said, "I have to prepare gifts when I go to my grandfather's house. You eat. I'll prepare something."

"I want to buy something delicious outside for my grandmother." Ye Tangcai said.

"What to buy? We have ready-made ones here. Wait." Mother Cai said and went out of the house.

Ye Tangcai and Qiuju took a few random bites and saw mammy Cai coming back.

Mother Cai brought back a pot of tea and a set of dark blue ten thousand character clothes: "your grandmother likes Dahongpao best, and this dress was made by her wife herself and is going to send it to your grandmother! Now the girl will send it on behalf of her wife! "

"OK." Ye Tangcai touched the dark blue ten thousand character pattern jacket in her hand and sighed slightly. When she was free, she also made a dress for her mother.

Of course, she also made something for Wen. What she did was wipe her forehead. But Wen didn't like wearing a wipe forehead. Ye Tangcai didn't want to force her to wear it. He only made two and didn't do it.

"Mother Cai, please say hello to grandma for me, and I won't go there." Ye Tangcai said.

"All right. There's sister Ling over there. The old lady still cares about this? " Mother Cai said.

Ye Tangcai asked mother CAI to take good care of Wen, so she went out with autumn oranges.

The carriage staggered down the street. When ye Tangcai thought of his grandmother, he sighed slightly. He hadn't seen her for a long time since he got married.

The Wen family is also a scholar disciple in the capital. They have been officials for several generations. The highest official was their grandfather. At that time, his grandfather was the Minister of household. Unfortunately, he died ten years ago.

As soon as he died, the whole Wen family sank, but none of their grandchildren could study. Today, I read that my grandfather devoted himself to the court. Because I sympathized with my ancestors, I gave uncle Wen an extra position as a five grade official. The Wen family is also an official, but it's much better to enter.

The two generations of the Wen family are small, and ye Tangcai has only one uncle and two aunts.

The carriage walked for more than a quarter of an hour and finally came to the east corner gate of Wen's house. Ye Tang picked and handed over the sign. Because he didn't hand over the post in advance during his visit today, the gatekeeper went in to inform him after receiving the sign.

After a while, the boy ran out and let the carriage in.

When ye Tangcai got off at the Chuihua gate, he heard a giggle. When ye Tangcai looked up, he saw that it was a beautiful girl with orange red apricot flower collar Ru skirt, which was Wen LANYA.

"Sister Tang is coming." Wen LANYA came forward with a smile, "I'm calculating the account in the kitchen this month in the house. I didn't want to receive your sign and came out to meet you."

"Cousin." Ye Tangcai came forward with a smile and took her arm.

"Did you come to see grandma?" Wen LANYA said.

"Yes." The sisters crossed the threshold as they spoke.

Ye Tangcai saw that this was the direction to Mrs. Wen's yard and said, "don't we go to see my aunt?"

"My mother went out early in the morning. Leave her alone. Let's go see grandma. "

The two entered the instrument door, turned left and walked for a short time. They saw a white walled and Daiwa courtyard with the words Yongfu courtyard written on the plaque.

When they entered the door, they saw an old lady in her fifties taking care of the flowers and plants next to them. When they saw them, they stood up and greeted them: "isn't this a cousin? Please, please, please! "

"Look, mother Ping is very happy." Wen LANYA chuckled, "just looking at sister Tang, there was no me in her eyes."

"Go, you come three times a day. I'm tired of looking at you." Mother Ping joked.

Looking up at ye Tangcai, I saw that the former arrogant watch girl was as beautiful as before, but the long hair behind her had been pulled, adding a little mature charm and less wanton arrogance before marriage.

It was sad to think that ye Tangcai's marriage was like that. He only pulled ye Tangcai's hand and smiled: "please, cousin. I haven't come for a long time. The old lady misses you."

Ye Tang's eyes are red. Her memory must stay at the time of her death in her previous life. Even in her previous life, she was trapped in Zhangjia for three or four years. Many people or things left her when she was young.

Self rebirth thought that there were so many things that she didn't have time to take a good look at those who loved her.

Mother Ping opened the curtain, and sister Ye Tang and Wen LANYA went in.

There was a slight smell of smoke in the room. Because my grandmother was paralyzed, even if mother Ping and other servants took care of her carefully, there would inevitably be a little smell. They couldn't let go when they opened the window. They had to smoke incense.

When they entered the bedroom, they saw an old woman in her 60s and 70s lying on a recliner.

The old woman was slightly fat and wrinkled. She was wearing a long chrysanthemum black jacket and a black brocade silver silk inlaid white jade forehead. She was skewing her mouth. When she saw Ye Tang coming in, she called twice.

"Grandma." Ye Tangcai hurried forward.

Mrs. Wen nodded and looked at her steadily.

Ye Tangcai said, "I've had a lot of things after I got married. I forgot to come here. Today, I went back to my mother's house. Because I had something to do, I remembered that I really should call. "

At this time, Qiuju came forward with clothes and tea cans in her hands.

Ye Tang said, "these are the clothes my mother made for my grandmother and her favorite Dahongpao. I borrowed flowers to worship the Buddha."

"Watch girl, just come." With a smile, mother Ping took the clothes and tea cans and touched the clothes: "Mrs. Ping is still a good craftsman as always. The old lady is most comfortable in her clothes. She doesn't feel tired if she sends them often. Turn back and ask your mother not to be busy. She won't hurt her eyes. "

"Yes." Mrs. Wen nodded and glanced at the chair next to her.

Because Mrs. Wen is paralyzed, she usually stays in the bedroom. All the people who come to see her sit here, so there are several chairs or stools beside Mrs. Wen for people to sit.

"Watch girl, the old lady asks you to sit down." Said mother Ping.

Ye Tangcai picked up an embroidered pier nearest to Mrs. Wen and sat down. Mother Ping's eyebrows and eyes were smiling. Many thought the old lady was paralyzed and didn't want to sit close. Even the eldest childe didn't want to sit close. The eldest girl and the cousin were people who wanted to be close to the old lady.

Mother Ping gave the pot of red bubble to the servant girl and asked her to make tea. Then he said, "how are you, cousin?"

Ye Tangcai knew that this was about her married life. She felt that she was wronged, so she was worried. Looking back, I saw old Mrs. Wen looking at her with sad eyes. Even her grandmother knew!

"Very good!" Ye Tangcai gently shook Mrs. Wen's wrinkled hand. "I'll take him over to show my grandmother when I'm free. He looks so handsome."

Wen LANYA chewed an apple in her hand and obviously didn't believe it. It's like saying, just coax your grandmother. Last time, even ye Licai didn't want to bring it back.

"Mother Ping, I came here today to ask you something." Ye Tangcai said, "after all these years, can I find my mother's dowry list?"

Mother Ping was stunned, but she remembered that when the cousin was engaged, her aunt prepared a dowry for the cousin, and also found her own dowry list.

Mother Ping said, "Why are you looking for this again? I didn't find it many years ago. Later, didn't I record the dowry in the warehouse again? "

Ye Tangcai couldn't explain that much, "this is very important to me. Please think again, mother Ping."

Mother Ping and Wen LANYA couldn't ask her what she wanted to do. Mother Ping said, "but... I haven't turned it yet! It used to be in the old lady's mahogany box. Many years ago, your mother asked me to find it, but she found it missing. Later, he turned the whole Wen family upside down and disappeared. It's said that the one who looks for it is the one who doesn't come. If he doesn't look for it, it will come out by itself, but he hasn't seen a shadow in recent years. "

Ye Tangcai listened with a pale face. She looked at old Mrs. Wen: "is grandma impressed?"

"Hiss -" Mrs. Wen only pronounced this syllable.

"Grandmother, what do you mean?" Wen LANYA frowned softly“ Dude? Think? Four? "

Ye Tangcai found that Mrs. Wen's fingers on the handrail moved slightly, as if pointing to the window.

Ye Tangcai saw a plate of roses on the window. She hurried over and held the roses to look through them.

Seeing this, mother Ping quickly smiled and said, "this plate of flowers can't have. I put it here a few days ago."

But when ye Tangcai found that Mrs. Wen's eyes fell on the rose in her hand, she frowned: "well, what does grandma want to express? Hiss... Rose? Siyue? Siji? Name? "

Mrs. Wen said.

The three were stunned and surprised. Wen LANYA said anxiously, "what a name? Miss the moon or miss the season? Who is it? "

"Aunt!" Mother Ping shouted, "aunt's maiden name is Siyue."

Her great aunt? Ye Tangcai thought.

Wen's generation, three sisters, the first daughter Wen Siyue, the second daughter Wen Sixue and the youngest daughter Wen Siyu. Wen Siyu is Wen.

At that time, the Wen family was very short of money for a period of time, so Wen Siyue, the first daughter, married the emperor Shang Qiu family. The second daughter married the fourth son of Du Qibo. The youngest daughter had the best life and married the prince of the Marquis of Jing'an.

But after all these years, who has the best life?

Ye Tangcai is quite impressed by her second aunt, because she is married in the capital. She is often seen by her relatives every year and looks at her life in general.

As for the legendary aunt, ye Tangcai really doesn't have any impression. The Qiu family's family is in Dingcheng near the northwest, and it takes a month to go back and forth. So I don't come back once a few years.

Ye Tangcai remembered seeing her when she was seven or eight years old. Later, for one reason or another, she never returned to the capital. So the impression is not deep.

"Grandma means that the dowry list has something to do with the big aunt?" Wen Bluetooth said.

Mrs. Wen nodded.

Ye Tangcai's eyes brightened: "is it in her hand?"

Mrs. Wen nodded again.

Ye Tang picked a joy and then frowned: "how did she take it away?"

"Isn't it!" Wen Yaya tilted her head and looked at mother Ping.

"This... I don't know. But when she asked a few years ago, the old lady didn't have any instructions like today. " Mother Ping also looked puzzled.

"Let's write a letter and let her send it back!" Wen LANYA said.

Ye Tangcai didn't know why his mother's dowry list went to his aunt, but now he wanted to get it back, so he had to. Thinking of the long journey, it would take two months to come, ye Tang's heart was a little gray again.

"Isn't there a flying pigeon to deliver a book?" Wen LANYA smiled and said, "with the flying pigeon used by the official, give tens of liang of silver, which will be delivered in a few days."

Ye Tangcai's eyes brightened as he listened. Yes, and this!

"However, even if the pigeons that fly and deliver books have been trained by the government, they are rarely lost... If they are lost, they will never be lost again." Mother Ping frowned.

Ye Tangcai said, "if you can't get it these days, after the autumn... It should be useless. Moreover, I don't know whether it's still there or not. Anyway, ask first. "

"Let's write a letter quickly, Xiao Dong. Bring pen and ink." Wen LANYA gave an order.

Xiao Dong went to get the pen and ink and soon put it on the table.

After thinking about it, ye Tangcai asked first, then wrote down the dowry list and asked her to find it and send it back as soon as possible.

Ye Tangcai finished the envelope, then said a few words to Mrs. Wen, and asked them to come to the Marquis of Jing'an to attend the Miao's birthday banquet, and then left.

Before it was dark, he came to the official translation station and spent more than 50 liang of silver before sending out a batch of carrier pigeons with the best training of the official.
