ps: Caisiji's mobile phone is synchronized, so I will not post this chapter with the previous chapter. I will open another chapter and set it as a free chapter. I am very sorry for causing trouble to book friends.
The Qiao family is a large family in Yizhou with a prosperous population.
The ancestors of the Qiao family had meritorious services from the dragon, and they have been continuously rewarded for hundreds of years.
Qiao Zhiyuan, the great ancestor of Qiao's father Qiao Jingkun, was awarded the title of Grand Master of the Crown Prince. Later, he helped the young prince to ascend the throne and corrected the chaos. He worked hard for several years and was loyal.
The prince thought of his merits, and sent money, money, farm produce, and water to the Qiao family. He also gave many supports to the children of the Qiao family.
Qiao Zhiyuan's eldest son, Qiao Fangdong, was Qiao Jingkun's great-grandfather. Thanks to his father's painstaking upbringing, he served as an official in the Ministry of Personnel, the head of the six departments, and served as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
Qiao Zhiyuan and Qiao Fangdong's other sons also had official positions. The Qiao family was once famous and was considered the largest family in Yizhou.
Unfortunately, neither of these two people live long.
When a person is in his prime, when it is time to show off his talents and lead his family to make great strides forward, they all fall seriously ill and die.
Qiao Jingkun's grandfather, Qiao Xiangyou, had little talent since he was a child and failed in many tests. However, because he was the eldest son of Qiao Fangdong, he was firmly in charge of the Qiao family.
Qiao Jingkun's father, Qiao Xingcun, inherited the talent of his ancestor Jiaoren. He was called Yizhou prodigy since he was a child.
At the age of ten, he was selected as a scholar, then he was selected as a scholar, and then he was selected as a Jinshi. His performance in the palace examination was even more extraordinary. Because he was under twenty, the former emperor ranked him second in the list.
Qiao's parents' room regains its glory.
Qiao Xingcun was successful at a young age, and he was also handsome and talented. Before he went to fight against the emperor, he was spotted by the younger sister of the then emperor's favorite concubine Liu Zhuang, who asked him to join the harem.
The late emperor wanted to marry the two of them and they would become a beautiful couple. However, Qiao Xing had already made an engagement in Yizhou and was waiting for them to return home after completing the imperial examination.
Because he thought of the Qiao family's contribution, the late emperor did not force him. Instead, he gave a pair of gold and jade Ruyi as a congratulatory gift.
Qiao Xingcun's unmarried wife is Lan Qiying, the eldest granddaughter of the head of the Lan family in Yizhou, a scholarly family.
Lan's Qiying was known as a talented woman in Yizhou. She was a red needlework girl and was good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Since she was ten years old, there has been an endless stream of people seeking marriage, almost crossing the threshold of the Lan family.
In the end, Lan's grandfather settled for Qiao Xingcun, the eldest son of the Qiao family, who was also from a wealthy family in Yizhou...
The Lan family married into the Qiao family and served the aunt on the top and a good man on the bottom. She also made good friends with her sisters-in-law and was friendly to her neighbors. She had an excellent reputation in Yizhou.
As the next clan wife, she is praised by everyone in the clan.
Unfortunately, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not good.
Lan's mother-in-law, Fang, came from the Fang family, a wealthy family in a neighboring county in Yizhou. Because Lan's father-in-law, Qiao Xiangyou, failed in many trials and refused to be favored, when it came time to get married, he became a married woman.
Although the Qiao family is one of the largest families in Yizhou, Qiao Xiangyou has some troubles. Therefore, when it comes to his marriage, he is neither good nor bad.
After many years of searching for the Fang family, the head of the Fang family gave it some thought and only married off the youngest daughter of the Fang family.
Because she is the youngest among her brothers and sisters, Fang has been very pampered since she was a child. She is also ignorant of accidents. She does not know how to make good friends with the side branches of the Qiao family. Because she is the legitimate daughter of her original wife, she is rich and pampered, and she looks down on the side branches.
Zhi is old and unfriendly to the Qiao family's in-laws, and feels that their visit is just a sign of the autumn wind.
Qiao Xiangyou gradually became alienated from Fang because he had lost face several times, and his relationship with Fang was not very good.
And since Lan married in, her husband Qiao Xingcun was young and promising, and was awarded the second place in front of the palace before the age of twenty. This wiped out the shame of the elder Qiao Xiangyou.
Therefore, Qiao Xiangyou was particularly interested in this eldest son and his eldest daughter-in-law, Lan.
After Lan married in, Qiao Xiangyou took care of most of the family affairs in Lan's hands.
And because Lan's family was harmonious in life, her family's in-laws always had better friendships than her.
Seeing that she couldn't handle it, Mrs. Fang sent Xiao Fang, her natal niece who had been raised in the Qiao family since she was a child, on her son's bed.
First, she was treated as a noble concubine, and later, when she gave birth to the eldest son of a concubine, she was promoted to the second wife as a concubine.
Because of the support of the Fang family, the little Fang family was very proud of the Qiao family, and gradually became as good as the Lan family.
After Qiao Xingcun was appointed an official in Beijing, Fang ordered Lan to stay in Yizhou with his eldest son Qiao Jingkun on the grounds that his eldest son's wife had to stay in the old house to serve his aunt.
The young couple live apart.
Naturally, Xiao Fang took her eldest son with her. Before leaving, Lan promoted Xia, the eldest girl next to her, as her aunt and ordered her to accompany her husband to the capital.
While Qiao Xingcun was serving in Beijing, he never forgot his wife's eldest son and wrote frequently to inquire about him.
However, the separation lasted for a long time, and the love between the young couple gradually faded.
In addition to Xiao Fang and his aunt Xia, who had brought him to Beijing from his hometown, Qiao Xing had two other aunts in Beijing.
The Lan family was well-educated and neither jealous nor jealous. She personally prepared two generous gifts and ordered them to be sent to Kyoto.
Lan didn't care that her husband was happily getting married with his new love in Beijing. She just stayed at home to serve her parents-in-law and educate her son.
His eldest son, Qiao Jingkun, thought of his mother's hard work and was sensible and hard-working since he was a child. He also followed his father's example since he was a child. He was very savvy in reading at a young age and was admitted to the scholar examination only one year later than his father.
For a time, the Lan family was even sung among the clan and Yizhou's big families. It was said that she was a rare virtuous person, who was in charge of the family, supported her parents-in-law, and raised her children. She was shown to be a model of a good woman. It became a favorite story in Yizhou for a while.
The year after Qiao Jingkun passed the scholar examination, Concubine Liu Zhuang's natal sister became a widow.
Because she had been married into her husband's family for several years and had not given birth to a son or a daughter, the Liu family took her back to their own family.
Mrs. Liu was young and widowed. She remembered that when she was still unmarried, she saw a young man passing by on the royal street. He was handsome and well-mannered.
How can it not be lamentable to be married for several years and yet to be widowed at a young age while still in the prime of youth?
After returning home and meeting each other on the street, I thought about En En again day and night, tossing and turning and unable to sleep.
Then ask for a harem.
The late emperor couldn't help it, Concubine Liu Zhuang's nose burst into tears, and her face was haggard. He also thought that she was a widow at a young age and had no one to depend on for the rest of her life. If she hadn't been ranked second in the list, she might have been married and loved by her children now.
It won't wither like a flower at such an early age.
Therefore, I made a decree for him to remarry into the Qiao family, regardless of the size of the Lan family. They would be one wife on the left and the other on the right.
The Fang family has always disliked the Lan family's compromise. Even several elders of the clan praised her for her manners as a clan wife, and her family background was much better than that of the Lan family, and she believed that she could do better than the Lan family.
, but no one has ever praised her as a clan wife.
I was very proud when I heard a message from the capital that the most promising son would marry a beautiful woman. She was also the daughter of the uncle's house in the capital and the favorite concubine in the palace. She felt that she could control the Lan family.
At the end of the year, when Qiao Xingcun returned home with his beloved wife, wife, three concubines, and several children to celebrate the New Year, Mrs. Fang gave Mrs. Liu a lot of face in front of relatives, friends and clans from all over the world.
Later, the Liu family had a miscarriage, and all the blame was directed at the Lan family.
The Fang family wanted the Lan family to give way to the Liu family.
After the thirteen-year-old Qiao Jingkun experienced life and death several times, the Lan family resolutely fled the Qiao family with Qiao Jingkun before the first lunar month was over.
If you don't leave home, you have to abdicate in favor of someone worthy of your family. For the Lan family, there is nothing better than death. There is no shame in returning to her natal family.
After the Qiao family found out the truth and cleared Lan's suspicion, they visited Lan's mother and son, but to no avail.
Since then, the Lan family and Qiao Jingkun have disappeared in the eyes of the Qiao family in Yizhou.
Ms. Qiao was determined not to admit defeat and fled from her family with Qiao Jingkun. In fact, she had been raised in a boudoir since she was a child and had never left Yizhou. Although she was smart and had been running a family for several years, she still had a few days left to wander around.
Second-rate.
The treasures brought by the mother and son only left Yizhou for less than a hundred miles before they were looted.
They pawned some money with the bracelets, jade pendants and other items they carried with them. However, when they walked all the way to Yunjia Village in Songshanji in the south, they were already out of ammunition and food, and suffered from hunger and cold.
Fortunately, they were rescued by the Yun family, who fed the mother and son rice soup for a few days before they recovered.
Later, the Yun family helped the two of them obtain household registration in Yunjia Village, and helped them build a house to stay. Later, they married Qiao's mother to Qiao Jingkun.
Since then, mother and son have lived in Yunjia Village...
When Qiao's father talked about this allusion, Mingjue and Mingheng had already been invited back home.
The whole family, together with Ding Er and his son, sat in silence.
Except for Lan and Father Qiao, this was the first time for everyone to hear about this experience.
Not to mention Ding Er and his son were lamenting and wiping their eyes with tears. It was also the first time for Qiao's mother, Qiao Mingjin and others to hear about the origins of their grandmother and Qiao's father.
Qiao Mingjin and others knew that their grandmother and father had an unknown identity. However, in recent years, Lan and Qiao's father seemed to have integrated into their new identities. For many years, except for the vicinity of Yunjia Village, they almost never left home.
The two of them have never inquired about the situation of the Qiao family.
The search for Ding Er and his son reminded them of their future.
I also learned that the one who started pupae was no longer alive, and I didn’t know whether to feel happy or sad. I had all kinds of mixed feelings, not knowing what was bitter, sweet, sour or salty...
Qiao Mingjin and others are fine, but Qiao's mother is worried and hesitant.
She has known since she was born that her men are different from others.
Not only can he write beautiful characters, he likes reading, and he behaves elegantly, but he also likes to be clean. His style and daily behavior are completely different from those of the people in the village, just like the young master of the landlord's family.
In the early years, the couple respected each other like ice, and she probably knew that she was not his ideal wife.
Her Yun family has always been the most ordinary farmer's family that will have enough to eat. She is also the eldest daughter, and she has known since she was a child that if she doesn't take care of the family affairs, she won't have enough to eat.
In addition to being busy with farm work and family affairs, she also had to take care of her younger siblings. Like most daughters of farmers, she had to get up early and stay up late at night, soaking in the fields, digging for food in the sun, and not being able to read a word.
It was only because of her good fortune that she could marry her child's father.
She always felt that she had married well. Although she had lived through many years of hard times without enough food and clothing, she had always been content with it.
Now that she hears this, she realizes that the man in her family has a very big background. She doesn’t understand anything about the clan clan wives. She only knows that it is a very big family, just like the Zhou family in Qingchuan City, it is a local big family. The official capital of the capital is
Several big families.
That person named Ding Er is here to look for the child's father and mother-in-law to return to her family, right? So what is she going to do?
Should she be like the great grandmother and ask her clansmen to invite her out of the hall?
Thinking of this, Mother Qiao couldn't help but tremble. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
