Side Story, Hu Yulin Jie (5)
“This official’s wife thanks the emperor for his grace.”
Hu Yu thanked him. With so much glory, her future days would be much better. She almost couldn’t cry. If she hadn’t pinched herself so hard, she wouldn’t have cried so much.
Hu Yu’s voice was trembling with pain. He had put on a good show, and when he got up, he staggered and fainted.
She had nothing to do with the imperial court. As for Ou Yangming Mingde, whom she had never met before, she was still alive as his wife, but since he was dead, she would not lose any face.
When they returned to the residence, they were carried back to the residence by the palace in a sedan chair.
The news had already spread, and the general’s manor had already hung up the white sail.
Ou Yangming Mingde’s body was not there, so only the cenotaph was sent back.
Hu Yu was not really sad, but Ouyang Mingzhu and Ouyang Mingyue were truly sad when they heard the news. They cried until they fainted.
Hu Yu rushed to comfort the two of them. She did not want to cry at first, but when she saw how sad Ouyang Mingzhu and Ouyang Mingyue were, she remembered that she had never eaten delicious chicken after ascending. She was extremely sad. The three of them hugged each other and cried their hearts out.
The funeral was a complicated process, and it only officially began when Ou Yangming Mingde’s coffin returned.
Almost everyone in the capital was mourning Ou Yangming Mingde’s death.
Ou Yangming Mingde did not have parents, so Papa Chu had asked Mama Chu to help him.
Although Ou Yangming Mingde was dead, the Chu family had benefited from it. They were happy, but they still wailed on the surface and wiped away their nonexistent tears with a handkerchief.
It was rare for her to have time to rest. Mother Chu quickly pulled Hu Yu and asked,” Daughter, what are your feelings for the Crown Prince now? Tell me honestly.”
” I’m not satisfied with what Mother said,” Hu Yu said honestly to Mother Chu.” I’ve already given up. From now on, 1’11 just live in this General’s Estate.”
Hu Yu was speaking the truth. Chu Guanyu had wanted to be with the Crown Prince, but she had regretted it after her death, so it was impossible for her to think about the Crown Prince now.
However, Mother Chu started crying.” Daughter, Mother knows that your life is hard, but now, your life is still tied to our family. Listen to Mother. Don’t even think about the Crown Prince. If others find out, they will lose their heads.” “Your father told your mother that he regretted it. Back then, he only thought that Ou Yangming Mingde was a loyal person. Who would have thought that he was destined to die early? He was so narrow-minded that he ruined your life with a blood wish after death.”
“It’s already the Emperor’s order now. Even if we don’t want to admit it, we have to. My poor daughter, Mother can’t wait to bear this bitter fruit for you. Just listen to Mother and stop thinking about the Crown Prince, alright?”
Mother Chu cried sadly, trying to use her true feelings to dispel Hu Yu’s thoughts that she should not have.
Hu Yu frowned. She was telling the truth, but Mirs. Chu did not believe her.
Hu Yu sighed.” 1 admit that 1 was lying just now, but 1 know in my heart that if I were to go with the Crown Prince, it would be a dishonorable title. The Crown Prince would definitely scoff at an unfaithful woman. I would have no fate with her in this life, so 1 will be rational.”
” My good daughter,” Mrs. Chu wiped her tears.” God is blind.”
Hearing Hu Yu’s words, Mrs. Chu was relieved. This was what she could understand and believe.
After the funeral was finally over, Hu Yu began to live in seclusion.
During this period of time, she naturally had to be sad. Otherwise, if she was too glamorous, outsiders would say that she had no conscience and was not sad even after her husband died.
For three whole months, Hu Yu did not come out. Ouyang Mingzhu and Ouyang Mingyue also went to school in fear. When they were bullied, they just endured it and did not cry. The two sisters went home and comforted each other.
Both of them had lost a lot of weight and looked haggard.
Hu Yu had also lost some weight. It was hard to go on a diet, but it would be unreasonable if she didn’t lose weight.
Because he had been locked up in the house, summer had passed.
Autumn was cool and refreshing. It was Hu Yu’s first time going out to fetch the Ouyang sisters from the Yan Hall. Although she was thin, her skin was extremely good. Under the sunlight, it seemed to glow. As soon as she stepped out of the carriage, the people coming out of the academy were stunned. freeweb(n)ovel
These women were all around the age of 13 or 14. They paid the most attention to their appearances and loved to compare themselves with each other. Now that they saw the condition of Hu Yu’s skin, they simply had a new understanding.
It turned out that a woman’s skin could be so delicate and so good.
Hu Yu walked forward with a faint smile.” Hello, everyone. May I ask when my sisters will be coming out? They are Ouyang Mingzhu and Ouyang Mingyue.” The crowd came to a sudden realization and understood Hu Yu’s identity. She was the wife of the late Great General Ou Yangming Mingde.
When they got closer, they looked at Hu Yu’s fair and tender face. Her gentle appearance made them whisper softly.” They’re cleaning. They should be out soon.”
“Alright, thank you.” Hu Yu smiled.
Hu Yu did not have to wait for long before Ouyang Mingzhu and Ouyang Mingyue came out. Their expressions were downcast, and they did not recognize Hu Yu at all. After not seeing him for a few months, they had naturally become distant. With their elder brother dead, the two of them seemed to have grown up overnight. They understood that their situation was no different from when they were living with relatives.
It could even be worse, because this elder sister-in-law had the right to marry them.
Therefore, if they didn’t go and look for him, they would live a peaceful life.
Hu Yu knew that the two of them did not take her seriously. Therefore, when the two of them were about to miss her, she grabbed Ouyang Mingzhu’s hand.
Ouyang Mingzhu and Ouyang Mingyue were stunned for a moment before they recognized Hu Yu. Their hearts sank, and they could not even force a smile.
Hu Yu pulled the two of them towards the carriage.
The two sisters were very nervous and afraid when they got into the carriage. Ouyang Mingzhu pleaded in a low voice,” Eldest Sister-in-law, I can do anything you want me and Mingyue to do. Can you not marry us off?”
This was what they were most afraid of. After their big brother died, the people who bullied them had said many such things.
Her big brother was dead, so what right did she have to ask others not to marry? Chu Guanyu, a beautiful woman, had to stay chaste for the rest of her life for a dead man. How could she not feel hatred in her heart?
If Chu Guanyu wanted revenge, Ouyang Mingzhu and Ming Yue were the best targets.
Hu Yu sighed.” During this period of time, I was immersed in my own pain and did not take into account your feelings. It’s already autumn now, and 1 can finally accept the news of General’s passing. He will never return, but those who are still alive still have to live well. You are the General’s only family, so how can I be harsh to you? Have you forgotten what 1 said three months ago?”
Ouyang Mingzhu looked up at Hu Yu.
Hu Yu said sincerely.
“Even if you don’t have your eldest brother, you still have your eldest sister-in-law. 1’11 definitely raise you up beautifully and make everyone in the capital envy you. No one will bully you anymore.” Hu Yu said sincerely..
