The famine-escape cub vs. the fake daughter cub

Chapter 238 Opportunity

"If your grandfather knew that Xu was not Wang Yuan's daughter, I wonder if he would be upset that all these years of friendship were wasted."

Jiang said this with a certain gloating tone, but he also warned Yunli seriously,

"You must not spread this matter to others. If you are not careful, you may end up in a fatal disaster. Do you understand?"

"Can I tell my father?"

Yunli was somewhat curious about Jiang's attitude towards Shen Xiuyang.

When mentioning her second son, Jiang's expression became even more complicated, "Your father... is too stupid, so forget it."

"Pfft!" Yunli couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Grandma, why do you think my father is stupid?"

"Do you think your grandfather chose your father when he first approached Xu? It was a honey trap, and only your father fell for it."

At this point, Jiang sighed again, "Your eldest brother is the eldest son of the Shen family, not because your eldest aunt was born late, but because your eldest aunt came into the family late."

Yunli was shocked.

Nowadays, there is a strict order of seniority, and it is rare for the second son to get married and have children before the eldest son does.

This incident also shows how absurd my father was back then.

But she was the younger generation after all, and it was not appropriate for her to speak ill of her own son in front of her grandmother, so she just asked, "Grandma, do you have any rules for that matter?"

"This matter involves many things. Let me think about it. By the way, why didn't Lord Xiao and the young man from the Liu family come here today?"

Jiang suddenly thought of these two people.

One was a marquis whose entire family was wiped out, but he still had some old friends and elders in the army, and the other was the most favored grandson of the right prime minister. If the granddaughter could choose either of them, she would have one more person to protect her and would not be harmed by the one in the palace...

"They made bets among themselves and won and lost. Today they are going to complete their bets."

Yunli was somewhat amused, but also somewhat alert, "Why did grandma suddenly mention them?"

"Grandma wants to ask if you have any feelings for those two young men. Before, I thought you could stay at home for a few more years and there was no need to rush. But now that you know about these troubles, you should choose a son-in-law as soon as possible, so that you can have more protection."

Jiang said earnestly, "There is nothing to be afraid of in the royal family. It's just that the royal family has more say on the surface, and no one will oppose them. If you were just a daughter of my Shen family, grandma would definitely protect you, but your grandfather might not. Grandma can protect you in the Shen family, but if your grandfather colludes with outsiders and tricks you out, grandma's hand can't reach that far.

But if you can have another husband, then even if you go out, you can have a son-in-law to protect you. Qingyun, you are a smart child, and grandma knows that you understand these things. So Lord Xiao and the boy from the Liu family, do you have a favorite candidate?

Grandma originally thought that if you didn't find a candidate you liked, she would bring the Jiang family's nephews over for you to see. But now it seems that the Jiang family and Grandma have overlapping manpower. "

Jiang was very melancholy. What she meant by her words was that she wanted Yunli to choose between Xiao Feiyu and Liu Junming and to settle the marriage first.

"Grandma, please allow me some time to think about it."

As soon as Yunli finished speaking, he ran out the door, "Don't worry, grandma, I'll go back and think about it!"

When the maids saw their girls running out, they hurriedly followed. Yunli winked and the other maids followed behind, only Yaoxia stepped forward and asked, "Miss?"

"Tell me about the situation of Master Chen's family."

Yunli has always paid special attention to the Shen family, the Xu family, and later the Liu family, as well as Xiao Feiyu.

If it was any other family, she really didn't know much about it and would have to ask her intelligence specialists.

"The Chen family?" Yao Xia instantly pulled out this family from her mind. "Grandmaster Chen has an only son. He lost his wife at an early age and never remarried. He has a son and a daughter from his first wife. The daughter is the current Empress Dowager Chen. His son, Chen Bifang, died in the palace coup three years ago. Chen Bifang's wife and children were also killed in the coup."

Yunli paused, a little surprised, "So now there are only two masters in Chen Taifu's house, Chen Taifu and his son?"

"Yes girl." Yao Xia nodded.

Yunli frowned.

This is a pretty clean death.

Yao Xia observed her expression and saw that she was interested in the Chen family father and son, so she quickly suggested, "If you want to see Master Chen, I'm afraid it won't be possible recently. But if you want to see Master Chen's son, Master Chen Yi Yu, you should be able to see him if you go to Yun Ji now. These days, Master Chen goes to Yun Ji in person every day to ask for cakes, without a day off."

Yunli thought about it and immediately quickened his pace back to Lingyun Courtyard, "You go get the car ready, I'll go back and get dressed and come over."

Jiang said that the only thing about her that resembled the late Mrs. Chen, Wang Wanying, was her eyes. So she would use some tricks to highlight her eyes.

The Wang family was of average origin, so the clothes and jewelry that Wang Wanying wore at that time were relatively ordinary.

Yunli took off the pearl hairpin on her head and replaced it with two simple silver hairpins. She also changed her clothes into brocade of a more ordinary texture. Then she took a veil and covered her face, and then led Yaoqiu to the second gate.

Yao Xia had been waiting here for a long time. When he saw his own girl, he hurried forward to greet her. In no time, he got on the carriage and drove towards Yun Ji.

As a result, he was stopped as soon as he walked out the door.

"Yun'er?"

Liu's familiar, hearty young voice suddenly rang out outside the car.

"Why are you back?" Yunli lifted the car curtain and saw that it was indeed that fool Liu Junming.

"I left the city gate yesterday, and when Linshan Temple opened its gates in the morning, I went to get the amulet. Look, I'm here now."

Liu Junming pointed to the amulet in his hand and took out a purse and handed it over carefully. "The amulet in here is something I asked for specially for you. I asked the abbot to bless it. Take it quickly."

The young man's enthusiasm is direct and passionate.

Yunli herself didn't realize that there was always a smile on her lips.

After giving away the amulet in his hand, Liu Junming was in a good mood and asked, "Where are you going? Can I go with you?"

Yunli was a little hesitant, but thinking that today was a rare day to talk to Liu Junming alone, he simply said, "Then why don't you get in the carriage?"

He is always eye-catching, and he is even more eye-catching when he is riding a horse outside.

Liu Junming was stunned for a moment, then he smiled happily, jumped off the horse and climbed onto the carriage, "Yun'er, why don't you let all the maids get off? I want to have a good talk with you."

After hearing this, Yunli turned around to look at Yaoxia and Yaoqiu, covered his mouth and laughed, "Don't worry, they are mine."
