Chapter 654: The strange things about the Zheng family (1)
Mrs. Da Sima gave birth to two sons and a daughter. When she was pregnant with her little daughter, she went with Da Sima to suppress the bandits. However, she was seriously injured in an accident and was born prematurely. As a result, Liu Xiaoyue suffered from poor health when she was little. Mrs. Sima also injured her body and could no longer survive.
Pregnant.
Liu Xiaoyue's health is so bad. She can't blow air or exercise much. She's afraid of cold and heat. Basically, she can't leave the house for a whole year. She can get seriously ill if she takes just a few steps on weekdays.
Naturally, I don’t have many friends.
At that time, Da Sima was not Da Sima, but he was the commander of the garrison stationed in Mo City in the southeast. Yang Peiyu's father was the prefect of Mo City, and he and Da Sima had a relationship of watching each other.
Yang's mother and Mrs. Liu were in love with each other by hand, and with the cooperative and watchful relationship between the two husbands, the friendship between the two ladies became even deeper;
So whenever Mrs. Liu was sick and had no time to take care of Liu Xiaoyue, Mother Yang would come to visit and help take care of their mother and daughter;
Mother Yang saw that Liu Xiaoyue was always alone, so she would often bring Yang Peiyu, who was about the same age as Liu Xiaoyue, to keep Liu Xiaoyue company.
After going back and forth, the two little girls became a traditional handkerchief couple.
Both parents looked at each other and said, "Hey, that's pretty good." They simply accepted each other as godfathers.
Later, Da Sima was transferred to the border. Yang Peiyu was worried about Liu Xiaoyue's health and insisted on taking care of him.
I'm so lucky to have her with me.
They went to a bitterly cold place in the Northeast. Mrs. Liu and Liu Xiaoyue, who were already weak, suffered from minor illnesses for two days and one illness for three days.
When Da Sima arrived at the border, he was preparing for war. He didn't even have time to return home, let alone take care of his wife and daughter;
Both Mr. Liu are men. Not to mention the issue of carefulness, it is not convenient for them to defend themselves between men and women;
It was Yang Peiyu who guarded the rear for the father and son, taking care of Mrs. Liu and mother and daughter Liu Xiaoyue, eliminating their worries.
People's feelings are all born out of emotions, and only sincerity can replace sincerity.
Therefore, although Yang Peiyu has a different surname in Da Sima's family, Da Sima's family treats her as their biological daughter/sister. When Yang Peiyu got married, the dowry given by Da Sima's family was not inferior to that of Yang's father.
Mother Yang.
Even if a concubine was born in the Great Sima family, she might not be treated like this.
The Liu family has a rich heritage, having produced two queens, three prime ministers, more than a dozen generals of third rank or above, and served as imperial merchants under several emperors;
Now: Mr. Liu is one of the three princes. Mr. Liu separated his family in his early years and became an imperial merchant. Mr. Liu just retired from his position as a bachelor last year and is idle at home. Mr. Liu became the chief minister seven years ago.
Putting aside the big family, among the grandsons, some are in the army and some are pursuing official careers. Except for Liu Ze, who is insignificant, the other worst literary scholars are already scholars, and the military officers are already a hundred years old.
Do you think a goddaughter who is recognized and treated as one of her own in such a big family can have no confidence?
To put it bluntly, as long as Yang Peixian yelled that she was wronged, her brothers who had been close to her for more than 20 years could beat Mr. Liu to the ground with one punch.
If the Liu family intervenes, it may not be fatal to the Liu family, but it will definitely cause damage to the muscles and bones... Qian Wentong was surprised, "Little Yang's own conditions are so good, why did he marry such a thing?"
Hao Zhengqun said impartially and to the point: "You can't say that. This shows us that Liu Hanlin's character is not good. If we look at Liu Hanlin's conditions alone, he is worthy of Xiao Yang.
His father is a bachelor, his grandfather is one of the elders, and he himself is the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army.
The two families are said to be well-matched, and this is all for the sake of the Liu family. If we look at little Yang’s biological parents alone, the Yang family would be in a league of their own.”
Perhaps for this reason, Liu Hanlin felt that after all, Yang Peixian was not the biological child of the Liu family, so he didn't have much respect for Yang Peixian, and that's why he made a promise but then broke the promise.
At this point, both Qian and Hao, the ministers present, looked down upon him.
There is nothing wrong with a man taking concubines. As for the two men in front of him, Hao Zhengqun's family has two concubines, and Qian Wen's family also has a common girl.
But this is different. Regardless of whether they take concubines or have a married woman in their family, before marrying a wife, they have already communicated with the woman, and only after the other party knows and agrees will she be willing to marry them.
If they promised the woman before marrying that she would not take concubines, and if they are one man, then they have to speak with spit and nail. If they don't keep their words, then what kind of man are they?
Therefore, both of them looked down upon Liu Hanlin and had lost interest in discussing this matter anymore.
While you and I were chatting about other trivial matters, the three of them were not idle. The food was already cold, and they all had huge appetites. They were stunned to finish a large table of food before leaving.
The waiter who went to clean up didn't even need to ask who the guest was in the box just now. He looked at the dishes and dishes on the table that were almost unwashed and knew that they must be from the Ministry of War.
Because only people from the Ministry of War came to eat, no matter whether they were second- or third-rank officials or sixth- or seventh-rank yamen servants, no one would find it embarrassing and would make the food clean every time.
After they had eaten and drank enough, the three servants went back to their homes.
Qi Baoer sent Ling Feng to Zheng Xiang's house on the way to dinner. When she returned to the house, Ling Feng had just returned.
At this moment, he was sitting in a rest pavilion in Qibaoer's courtyard, holding a box of steamed buns and a large pot of braised pork.
Qi Baoer changed into casual clothes and came over, sat opposite Ling Feng, poured herself a cup of tea, drank and asked, "What's going on with Zheng Xiang's sister?"
"I'm pregnant, but I'm pregnant with a bad fetus."
"Tell me carefully." She had never heard of the concept of complaining about fetuses.
Ling Feng finished the buns in his hand in two or two bites, drank another cup of tea and said, "In the mansion behind the Prime Minister's Mansion, there is an evil cultivator who is preparing to become a ghost boy.
The fetus was forcibly taken out at just seven months old. The takeout must be at the yin year, lunar month, yin day, and yin time, and the child must be still alive when taken out; after that, he was tortured for a full seven, seven and forty-nine days.
Feed it with blood and kill it on the forty-ninth day.
The ghost baby created by this method will be full of resentment, and can only obey the orders of those who feed it with blood; and the resentment in its body is a great tonic for evil cultivation."
The resentful ghost baby likes to kill, but he still wants to take orders and be controlled by others, so his resentment will become bigger and bigger, and his strength will become stronger and stronger.
Ling Feng took out another steamed bun and finished it in two or two bites, "This is a method of Yin Yixie cultivation that was developed by evil cultivators a long time ago. However, as the righteous way has been practiced from generation to generation, no one should know about this method now.
I don’t know where that person learned it. He killed many babies but did not leave any souls behind, only resentment.
The resentment of babies loves babies best. Zheng Xiang’s sister happened to be pregnant. She was affected by the resentment all day long. The child in her belly was no longer a normal fetus, but a resentful fetus infected with resentment."
