【Quick Wear】My Years as a Mother-in-law

"Haha, because I've never been bullied by my mother-in-law, and I have money and free time, I don't worry that my daughter-in-law will be unfilial if she takes my son away from me. Naturally, I don't feel resentful. Without resentment, my heart is naturally calm." Yun Xi smiled, "If I had a mother-in-law who bullied me every day, I might also become a mentally abnormal person."

Douzi shook his head, "I don't think the master would. Can the master tolerate being harassed by others?"

Yun Xi curled her lips, "You still understand me~"

Rubbing? She has a bad temper and can't stand it. She won't stop until she turns the world upside down.

There's no way. With this temper, I can tolerate small grievances, but when it comes to big grievances, I really can't tolerate it at all.

System: "I'm here, why bother to endure? The more you endure, the angrier you get. The more you take a step back, the further you retreat."

"That's it!"

After completing the task, Yun Xi handed over the family business to her daughter-in-law. There were two businesses in total. The first was the royalties from the book. After her death, there would be no more dividends from this part. The second was the matter of the medicinal materials. Over the years, many low-end versions of healing drugs had appeared on the market, which had affected the business to a certain extent. Fortunately, there was still profit to be made.

The matter of book dividends was simple. When she passed away, this business would leave her son about 80,000 taels of money. She had already saved 100,000 taels from the medicine business and had bought many shops and farms. How much money she could earn in the future depended entirely on Zhener's management.

Yun Xi felt that she had done well enough.

"If they manage the things I leave behind well, they can bring prosperity to three generations."

System: "Indeed, you did a great job. In the past, the host would leave immediately after completing the mission and would not worry about so much."

"I'm just too soft-hearted."

"Ready to leave?"

"Let's wait a little longer. I want to outlive the old emperor and see if he really becomes senile and demented."

Yun Xi fanned the incense, filling the room with fragrance.

"Let's make one with the scent of osmanthus today."

The system sent a picture of someone covering their nose, "Turn it down a bit, the sweet osmanthus scent is too cloying."

"Is it too greasy? Let me try adding some mint."

Now Yun Xi, sixty years old, has money and free time, so she started to make perfumes without any purpose, just using whatever flowers are in the yard.

After more than ten years of war, the country finally recovered all four corners of the country. The country was stable and the people lived and worked in peace. The only hidden danger was that the emperor lived too long. Although the position of the prince was stable, he could not stop his brothers from becoming more powerful.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from outside the door, and Zhen'er ran over, "Mother, someone is coming from the palace."

Yun Xi raised her eyes. The palace? It had been so many years since he had been to the palace. Why was he suddenly looking for her?

"Okay, I'll clean it up."

Not long after, Zhang Deshun, with white hair and beard, pulled her into the palace.

"Madam Yun, please follow me into the palace. His Majesty wishes to see you."

Although Zhang Deshun was anxious, he did not dare to be too presumptuous. Madam Yun's son had made many contributions on the battlefield and was named the Earl of Changping. Madam Yun became a second-rank official and was no longer an ordinary citizen.

"what happened?"

Zhang Deshun shook his head, he didn't know either.

Entering the palace and seeing the emperor, Yun Xi was shocked. How could he age so quickly? They were roughly the same age, but the emperor looked more than ten years older than her.

"His Majesty?"

Yun Xi bowed and sat waiting for a long time, but the emperor did not speak.

"Mrs. Yun, what should I do?"

Mrs. Yun said that this was all confusing and she was very confused.

"What does your majesty mean?"

"The princes have been feeling restless lately."

The emperor simply said this, and Yun Xi understood the matter of the fight for the throne.

Yun Xi didn't want to get involved. Knowing about something is one thing, but solving it is another. I know that fighting for the throne is wrong, but can I stop it? I can't stop it. This is human nature.

"This is a big matter, and I, an old woman, can't say anything."

"I forgive you, you are welcome to speak freely."

Yun Xi:......

Silence is Cambridge tonight.

After a long silence, the emperor said, "Now has come a crucial moment."

"The Crown Prince is to my liking, but the son of the eighth brother in the next generation is exceptionally outstanding."

Yun Xi: I really don’t know what to say.

"How do you think I should decide?"

Yun Xi: I think you are sick, but I dare not say it.

"Your Majesty, I don't understand state affairs. I only understand the principle that a harmonious family brings prosperity. A peaceful nation means a peaceful family, and conversely, a peaceful royal family means a peaceful nation." Yun Xi smiled. "Your Majesty has accomplished the great task of expanding the territory. It's not appropriate to resort to war for at least a few decades. It's good to have children and grandchildren to carry on the family legacy, isn't it?"

The old emperor looked far away, "What do you think I should do?"

Yun Xi said calmly, "It depends on your Majesty's opinion. Whether you want to enjoy your old age or something else, it is your Majesty's freedom to choose whatever you want."

"If you were me, what would you do now?"

Yun Xi was silent for a long time. It was not that she didn't dare to answer, but that she didn't know how to answer.

"Your Majesty, when it comes to the efforts made for the family business, what is the difference between me and Your Majesty? It's just that I am now enjoying my old age, while Your Majesty is still worrying about the children."

Yun Xi thought to herself, you really have to force me to say it, right? Then I’ll just tell you straight away, but you won’t be happy if I tell you.

They both worked hard for the revitalization of the family. Yun Xi let go early. Now her family is harmonious, her daughter-in-law is doing well, and they live a happy life. She herself has no worries and is aging slowly. In comparison, the emperor's life is...

I want to keep the snowflakes, but in my hands, they will only melt faster.

Shen Heng frowned and thought for a long time before letting Yun Xi leave.

Yun Xi left the palace as quickly as possible. Oh my god, old men are so hard to please.

On the third day after this incident, the palace suddenly issued several imperial edicts. The first one was that the emperor was going to abdicate the throne to the crown prince and move to the royal garden outside the city. The second one was that the crown prince's third son was named the crown prince's grandson. After the crown prince ascended the throne, he would be the crown prince, and the emperor would take him with him to teach him. The third one was that after the crown prince ascended the throne, all the princes would go to their fiefdoms as soon as possible.

These are the two most important things, and several other minor matters such as letting the palace maids leave the palace were also mentioned.

These decisions surprised many people in Beijing and made many people extremely disappointed.

But no matter how disappointed he was, there was nothing he could do. The emperor was old, but not ridiculously old. His control over the court and the country was very solid, and a smooth transfer of power was still possible. And the crown prince was not mediocre either.

"The emperor chose the crown prince's third son. Is there anything special about this unknown child?"

The family gathered together for dinner, and Yunduan felt it was too sudden.

"I don't know. The emperor must have his reasons for choosing this. Just be loyal and do your job well."

Yun Xi knew what was going on, but it was hard to explain. She couldn't say that she was the one who persuaded the emperor to be more open-minded. That would be so embarrassing.

Yun Xi lived a leisurely life until she was seventy-two years old. Seeing the emperor finally pass away, she slowly left this old body.

"mother!"

"Mom~"

“Grandma, grandma…”

"Whoa whoa whoa..."

"We have four generations living under one roof. I'm really amazing."
