Chapter 1013: Some things simply cannot withstand scrutiny
There are some things that simply cannot withstand scrutiny.
The first is the identity of the seventh sister of the An family:
——She is not a legitimate daughter, but a concubine girl from the third bedroom of the An family. More importantly, the third bedroom of the An family itself is also a concubine.
In addition, the An family's third family does not have any official position or business owner, and the whole family is simply living in old age.
If someone wants to ask why a concubine born from a concubine dares to be so arrogant, who gave her the confidence?
Now we have to talk about the old lady who is the head of the An family.
Yes, the headmistress of the An family's old house is still An Ruhai's mother, and she has not left it to the eldest daughter-in-law to take charge of the house.
Mrs. An is the stepmother of the late Mr. An, or the successor. She is Mr. An's third wife and the cousin of his second wife.
This relationship is quite messy anyway.
Mrs. An herself did not have any children. The current An Lao San was born to the concubine that Mrs. An brought when she married into the An family.
If a woman in this era married with a concubine, it was usually a girl with a lower status in her natal family, such as a direct descendant with a collateral descendant, or a direct descendant with a concubine, or a concubine from the same clan, even if they were not of blood.
It’s also the kind of person who cares about relatives.
For this reason, Mrs. An treats the children in front of Mr. An just like that. However, this person is not stupid. Apart from always holding the power of the family, she is quite decent in general and does not criticize the children in front of her.
That is to say, he is particularly fond of An Laosan.
An Ruhai and An Ruhe are about the same age and were born from the same mother, so their emotions are naturally different. Mr. An's second wife gave birth to two daughters for him; when Mr. An marries a third wife, what will happen to them?
At that time, An Ruhai and An Ruhe were both ready to get married, and one had already joined the court and the other had joined the army. They didn't care about whom Mrs. An loved or doted on, and they couldn't hinder them.
What.
Not to mention, although An Laosan married a wife who was not very popular in Beijing because of her concubine status, she was really good at giving birth. She gave birth to five sons in a row for An Laosan, and she and Mrs. An both had one.
spell.
The seventh girl of the An family is the daughter of An Laosan's only concubine.
The identity of this concubine is also somewhat different. She is the niece of Mrs. An's eldest sister-in-law, and she can barely be regarded as Mrs. An's maiden girl.
She is the only daughter, and she is also a 'girl from her mother's family'. In addition, Miss An Qi is very sweet when she touches her little mouth. Not only does Mrs. An treat her as a baby, but also Mrs. An's wife treats her as a concubine.
out.
After one of the brothers An Ruhai and An Ruhe became Jing Zhaoyi and the other became a junior general, they each opened their own houses and moved out of the An family's old house. Later, Mr. An passed away, and there were very few married women.
Going back to the old house, the current Anjia old house is almost the world owned by An Laosan and his family.
But for people in this era, the old house is the foundation of the family. The ancestral temples are all built in the old house. Every year they have to worship their ancestors and so on. Brothers and sisters like An Ruhai are bound to go back.
Moreover, the emperor rules the world with filial piety, and the word "filial piety" is as big as the sky. Even if Mrs. An is not An Ruhai's biological mother, after Mrs. An marries Mr. An, they still have to call her mother, and the word "filial piety" cannot be avoided.
Mrs. An's eyes were still red and swollen, but An Yueying had been rescued by the imperial doctor and even the child in her belly was saved. This made her relax and she spoke much more briskly now.
"Old ladies love power. Although there are no clear regulations in Beijing, the power of the family will be handed over to the eldest daughter-in-law if she is not the eldest daughter-in-law. The family with a lord is also the elder of the heir's daughter-in-law.
He would hand over the power of running the house to me; but when my sister-in-law came in, the old lady didn’t say a word about handing over the power. Until I entered the house, the power of running the house was still in the hands of the old lady.”
"Fortunately, my sister-in-law is not a fussy person, and the old lady is not too overbearing. She never interferes in the affairs of each family's own courtyard."
An Ruhai's wife was born in the Marquis Palace, and her family favored her. Her dowry was one of the most eye-catching in Beijing at that time.
It's a shop in Beijing and a village outside Beijing. They don't need to rely on Anjia and their own small life to live a very good life.
Although Mrs. An's family background is not as good as Mrs. An's, her family gave her enough dignity when she got married. She also had a shop in Beijing. Although she did not marry Zhuangzi, her family gave her a lot of money.
After getting married, she also bought a village outside Beijing with the help of her sister-in-law.
They don't need to rely on Anjia to live, and they don't care about what is left of Anjia. Instead, they think it's too troublesome, so they naturally stay away as much as possible.
"The children at home are also sensible. They usually go to the old house without causing trouble. It's just a formality anyway."
Speaking of this, Mrs. An was filled with regret, "I didn't expect that our avoidance actually made them think that we were easy to bully. That's one thing in private, but today we are doing this in front of all the wives and sisters of the family,
She just bullied Xiaoying in front of everyone, how will everyone think of my Xiaoying in the future?"
Do you think that the An family doesn't like Xiaoying, their adopted daughter?
Will Prince Xian and Qi’s family misunderstand that Xiaoying has been bullied at home?
When Mrs. An Er thought about this, her heart ached again, but she did not go out of her way to explain to Qi Baoer how her family treated An Yueying. Firstly, it would be easier for people to misunderstand. Secondly, as time goes by,
Seeing people's hearts, their family knows very well what they think of their daughter, so there is no need to go out of their way to say it.
On the bed, An Yueying's forehead was covered with sweat again. Mrs. An felt distressed and took out a handkerchief to gently wipe it away, "Your Majesty, my daughter has a hard life. She has never had any problems since she was a child.
On a good day, no one asked her how to behave.
The blame is actually on me today. I was thinking about her first time entering the palace. I was afraid that she would say the wrong thing because of her nervousness, and I was afraid that she would be so hot-tempered that she might accidentally offend someone without realizing it. So I made a special statement when I entered the palace.
She is staying with me today. She will try not to talk if she can. She will watch and learn more, and see how other people's wives behave.
This child is stupid, it must be what I said that made her not care about Anyue, or how could Anyue dare to push her?!"
Even though An Yueying was just an adopted daughter, she was loved by her parents and manipulated by several brothers. Although she didn't stay in the An family's second room for a long time, she was not a master who was willing to suffer.
For example, An Yue, the seventh girl of the An family, was beaten several times by her with a sack and slapped in front of everyone.
Qi Baoer silently glanced at Mrs. An, who looked remorseful and distressed, and for a moment felt a little sympathy for her.
Eunuch Fu is a capable person. He knew everything about the banquet in Ci'an Palace when no one else was around.
What happened to An Yueying today was really not something An Yueying wanted to avoid and made people feel easy to bully. It was...
