All Hail Cousin Brother

For a while, Shun Bo Mansion was in the limelight.

However, good times don't last forever.

Not long after Mrs. Yu married into the Yu Mansion, her father was implicated by a forbidden poem written by a colleague, and the whole family was sentenced to exile. The family did not survive the bitter cold of the place of exile.

Shun En Bo's mansion was deprived of the title, and the rest of the people were not implicated.

Everyone knows that Jiang Erye is a Jinshi in the second list and the "Prince Minister" of the Imperial Academy, and he was convicted only after being implicated.

If at that time, the Jiang family could take care of some affection and take care of Jiang Erye's family in the place of exile, the court would not pursue it.

Waiting for Jiang Erye to stay in exile for two or three years, compile a book about meritorious deeds for the current emperor, and go to the court. Shun Enbo is a veteran honorable man, even if he is deprived of the title, he has connections in the court. still.

Jiang's family took care of one or two. The Second Master Jiang's family will definitely come back, and there is even a possibility of reinstatement. Generally speaking, those who were convicted of exile and reinstatement will be reused by the court.

It's just that there are no ifs in this world.

Mrs. Yu has lost contact with her natal family.

For widowed women, life would not be too difficult if they had the support of their natal family, but the Jiang family didn't care about their aunt who married out, so Mrs. Yu's life was extremely bitter.

The most tragic thing in a woman's life is the loss of her mother in her early years, her father in her youth, her brother, and her husband in her prime.

Mrs. Yu has all three items.

Mrs. Yu's seventh cousin and nephew came to the Jiang family. Mr. Jiang was less than fifty, but his temples were white and his hair was frosty, showing his old appearance. He was helped into the filial hall by his son.

Staring at his sister's spirit seat in a daze, he couldn't help crying: "Sister Heng was the closest to me when she was at home. I was young at that time, and sister Heng often took me to play together..."

Mrs. Yu's boudoir name is Hengwu.

It is the name of a kind of vanilla, which is resistant to cold, barrenness, and drought, and its vitality is very tenacious.

Jiang Hengwu also grew up to be a tenacious person just as his parents expected, even though he has tasted all the hardships in the world, he still stands proudly in the frost.

The son persuaded him with red eyes: "Father, there is a ten-year difference between you and my old aunt. When our family had an accident, you were only a little older..."

I got in touch later.

After years of estrangement, it is no longer what it used to be.

The old aunt is a strong and stubborn person. After experiencing the ruthlessness of the family, the loss of mother, father, brother, and husband, her heart is like cold water.

The old girl hated her natal family's ruthlessness and injustice to her family, and she didn't want to have any contact with her natal family anymore.

His father was also young and energetic, and wrote several letters, but he was also taken aback when he didn't get a reply.

The relationship that was already estranged, after this encounter, was completely destroyed.

Mr. Jiang was crying in front of Sister Heng's Xiaotang with snot and tears all over his face. This scene is really embarrassing.

Uncle Wu came over to persuade him: "There is no grievance between death and death. The old lady is in the spirit of the sky. I will definitely understand you. The juniors are all watching, so don't cry..."

It's hard to persuade, after tossing the boss for a long time, he finally persuaded Mr. Jiang.

Mr. Jiang looked at Yu Youyao, and said kindly: "You are Sister Heng's most beloved eldest granddaughter, Youyao." He looked at Yu Youyao and nodded, "Good boy, your grandmother has passed away. If you have any difficulties in the future, go to Send a letter to Jinlingjiang Mansion, as long as we can help, our family will definitely not refuse."

This is to replace Mrs. Yu and take care of Yu Youyao.

The head of the clan gave Yu Youyao a strange look. After the emperor of this dynasty ascended the throne, he pardoned the whole world and pardoned some criminal officials who were convicted because of their involvement. This is a common practice.

Mrs. Yu's father and brother were also among them.

But because Mrs. Yu's father and brother are both dead, the imperial court will inevitably show grace to her family.

After all, it is a well-established old family. The Jinling Jiangfu got rid of the title of "criminal official". Over the years, there is a hidden tendency of recovery, and the head of the Jiangfu's generation is the old man Jiang Qi.

It really deserves to be born with precious life!

The Jiang family, who hadn't had any contact with her for decades, came to her as a backer.

Yu Youyao had heard her grandmother mention her natal family before, and she didn't say much about it, but this "seventh brother" mentioned it a lot. Every time she mentioned it, there was some regret in her tone.

It's not that the grandmother is unwilling to forgive the "seventh brother", it's just that her natal family hurt her too much, and watched her with cold eyes when she was most difficult, miserable, and desperate. This was a thorn in her heart.

The most taboo between relatives is estrangement. Once the estrangement arises, even if there is forced contact, it will hurt others and self in the future. It is better to be safe and remember each other's best times.

"Thank you, cousin," Yu Youyao was also very respectful to Mr. Jiang: "Grandmother often mentions my cousin, and she misses him very much in her heart. Everyone is safe, and I will always miss you in my heart.”

As soon as Mr. Jiang heard this, he knew that this was what his proud and strong sister Heng said. He couldn't help crying on the spot, staring blankly at sister Heng's spiritual seat, unable to speak for a long time.

It turned out that sister Heng never blamed him.

If he had been cheeky enough to write more letters to Sister Heng, even at the risk of being punished by his family, he would have gone to Beijing to see Sister Heng, wouldn't he and Sister Heng have gradually drifted away and become estranged?

After all, he did too little.

Sister Heng has too many scruples.

They care about each other, but no one is willing to take a step further.

Finally came to today.

Mr. Jiang stayed in Yu Mansion for four days, and did not leave for Jinling until twenty-seven days passed.

Before leaving, he left his son in Beijing, asked his son to wear sackcloth and mourning for Mrs. Yu, and returned to Jinling after burying Mrs. Yu.

In this way, it can be regarded as a sisterhood with Sister Heng.

After Jiang's affairs were over, it will soon be September.

Grandmother passed away on the evening of August 13th, at Haishi.

The funeral is held for three to seven days.

On the fourth day of the ninth lunar month, guests were entertained for the night, and the palace sent a banner, saying that the memorial archway was set up to show it off, to show its integrity, loyalty, virtue, virtue, kindness, and national conventions.

The Yu clan closed the house to thank you, and all the guests knelt down.

Since then, in addition to Duke Zhonglie, the Yu clan has added a stele of Jingde, which is a glory, a virtue, and a warning.

The Yu clan was completely revived.

On the fifth day of September, Fuling Hui people.

On the sixth day of September, the funeral was held in the clan.

After her grandmother was buried, Yu Youyao stayed in the clan for five days, and did not return to the mansion with Yin Huaixi until the second day after her grandmother's four or seven days.

In a blink of an eye, grandma had been dead for a month.

After returning to the mansion, Yu Youyao began to make arrangements for leaving the mansion.

Mother Yue came to look for her and mentioned about the sweet potatoes on the farm: "The crops planted in ridges are more than two or three times more productive than roots. A vine can bear at most six or seven, and at least three. Four, the largest is as big as a melon, and the taste is better, juicy, sweet and crisp."

Yu Youyao was very excited: "How about the batch of cuttings in June and July?"
