"Then Liu An's family only has a few acres of Susukaya. His father is disabled, his mother is a fierce mother, and they can't even afford a decent house in Beijing. Wan'er promises him to eat chaffy vegetables. How can it be compared to the Fang family?
Your Majesty, Fang Chuning is a dignified and brave man. With such a son-in-law, isn't your face disgraceful?" The eldest lady's eyes turned red with anger, and she argued with reason.
"My mother, you ignorant woman..." Feng Changlin was so angry that he covered his chest. Feng Wan stood up and supported him, "Father, please calm down. This happened all because of Wan'er. Don't blame mother."
"Wan'er, sit down, this matter has nothing to do with you." The old lady also felt sorry for her eldest granddaughter. She drank three sips of tea to suppress the fire in her heart, "Ms. Zhang, you have a backstage family and resentment in your heart. I understand you.
I also sympathize with you. Our Feng family was almost destroyed due to that rebellion. Their brothers were both civil and military, and they could only return to the capital with a solid foundation. After Wen Rong was in high school, I chose several marriages for him, but you were not satisfied.
I know that you are deeply attached to the appointment of the eldest daughter of Princess Ningru, and it is as you wish. Princess Ningru is a wealthy and idle person, and her husband is also a sinecure in the court, so it does not matter. But the Fang family is different, Shu'er has settled down.
Beihou Mansion, if our family has another daughter Xu Fang's family, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion and the Fang family will be brothers-in-law. There is already a barrier between the imperial power and the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. How can we allow Zhenbei Hou Mansion and the Fang family to have an in-law relationship? Have you ever thought about it?
, The Su family is as rich as the country, and they are our in-laws. Shu'er married into the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, and the Zhenbei Marquis indirectly had the wealth, military power, and finance of the Su family in Jiangnan. If Wan'er enters the Fang family again, will the emperor still be able to sit still?
?”
There were tears in the eyes of the eldest lady. Years of unwillingness and resentment were like a tide flooding her, "Mother, the second uncle is your son, isn't he your husband? You are always planning for the granddaughter of the second wife, but have you ever thought about my Wan'er and Yao'er?
.Just because Feng Shu and Xie Zhang are engaged, Wan'er can't marry into a wealthy family and can only depend on others for the rest of her life?"
"Shut up!" Feng Changlin stood up and raised his hand to hit her. Mrs. Feng raised her face stubbornly, but tears flowed down. She swallowed all the grievances and pains. For the sake of the daughter who had been wronged by her second wife, she decided to
Not willing.
Feng Changlin was also in pain, but couldn't bear to be harsh, so he knelt down and kowtowed, "Mother, please look at her motherly heart and forgive her."
Feng Wan's eyes were also red, she tugged on the handkerchief fiercely, lowered her head and shed tears. Feng Jian wanted to protect her mother, but did not dare to contradict her grandmother. Feng Yu looked at Feng Wan distressedly, but hesitated to speak.
Feng Yu actually likes Feng Wan very much. Her eldest sister is gentle and quiet. She has loved and protected her since she was a child. If there is anything good for her, she is never stingy. What she gives to Feng Yu will also be prepared for her. If Feng is isolated and humiliated in the Imperial College, Feng Yu
Wan will also stand up to defend her.
But the Fang family really can’t marry!
The old lady ignored Feng Changlin, and was even more disappointed with Mrs. Feng, "Wan'er is the eldest daughter of the Feng family. She is looking for a marriage with the right family, a smooth marriage, and a harmonious and beautiful life. Who does she need to look up to? You are devoted to her.
You have to compare with the second house, but you have to know that every mountain is higher than the next, there are always people who are better off than you, and there are always people who are worse off than you. If you really love Wan'er, don't interfere in her marriage."
"Mother, when the Zhenbei Hou Mansion decided to appoint Feng Shu, you also said the same thing, telling me not to interfere." Mrs. Feng shed tears and pointed at Feng Wan, "She is the eldest sister, and her appearance and character are not inferior to Feng Shu's.
, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion wants to hire a eldest daughter-in-law, you passed over my Wan'er and settled for Feng Shu, how can you make Wan'er's love miserable?"
Feng Changlin ignored etiquette and stood up to cover her mouth, "Ignorant... don't be embarrassed anymore."
"Let her say it!" the old lady slapped the table.
"It's obviously my mother who is partial!" Mrs. Feng refused to complain, "otherwise, it would be Wan'er who married into the Zhenbei Hou Mansion."
"It has been many years since this happened, and you are really resentful." The old lady was extremely disappointed. "We were demoted to Ningzhou back then. Why did the Marquis marry the Feng family because they had a relationship? How could you be so naive?
?The Zhenbei Hou Mansion is interested in the Jiangnan Su family. Back then, your family was in a state of decline and you were on your sick bed. I was afraid that telling the truth would hurt your self-esteem. I was also afraid that the sisters would have a grudge, so I told you that the Zhenbei Hou Mansion saw
If you fall in love with a girl, you will have to pay a huge price for a marriage with the wrong family. Everything has a price tag. If you want to be rich and wealthy, you must have the same value."
Feng Changlin was so ashamed that he couldn't even lift his head.
Mrs. Feng's face turned pale and she stared at the old lady blankly. She didn't understand. She just numbed herself and thought she was the eldest daughter of a wealthy family. The old lady's words tore her dream to pieces, and the eldest lady burst into tears.
It fell softly to the ground under the rain.
When the old lady saw this, she couldn't bear it. Both Feng Wan and Feng Yao knelt beside her to comfort her. Feng Wan said, "Grandma, don't be angry with your mother anymore. Wan'er's marriage will be at your discretion."
The old lady took a sip of tea and scolded her. It would be better if she could wake up a little. Although the eldest lady made mistakes, Wan'er is a good child who understands the general situation. "Wan'er, when a woman marries, she is reincarnated for the second time.
Only when you marry into a wealthy family can you live a good life, with a harmonious husband and wife, filial children, and no worries about food and clothing, which is also a good life. Grandma asked you three to come to listen today because she wants to tell you that our Feng family is forced to be involved in the imperial power and Zhenbei.
In the struggle in the Hou family, you must be cautious in your actions, and you must be cautious in your marriage. Family status that is too high is not suitable for you, including Yu'er. Mrs. Zhang, you said that I am partial to the second sister, but Yu'er has chosen Jiang Yang.
, If Jiang Yang hadn't broken off the engagement, the marriage was certain. If they had gotten married, Jiang Yang and her mother would have relied on Yu's dowry to make ends meet. She never complained at all, and Su Shi never had any objections. Do you still think I'm partial? "
Only now did the eldest lady want to understand why one of the second daughters was married high, shining like a pearl, while the other was married low, like an abandoned son. After she calmed down, she asked sadly, "Could it be that Wan'er and Yao'er can only marry
Jiang Yang and his ilk?"
"Of course not!" The old lady's voice softened, "Let's carefully look for the right family. There are many Qingliu families in Beijing. We should take a long-term view. As long as the son-in-law is motivated and treats the girls well, then the marriage will be fine."
"Why don't you apologize to your mother soon?" Feng Changlin reminded her.
Mrs. Feng was still a little unwilling. The old lady sighed, she was really stubborn, "Ms. Zhang, after we were exiled, we would never be able to come back to the capital. If we leave, we can't count on the connections of the master. The boss and
The second child is indeed working steadily, and he also needs someone to support him. The eldest brother can reach the third rank so quickly. Of course, he is an honest, pragmatic and capable official, but he cannot do without the support of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. If not, we would still be in Ningzhou.
Or Liling will never be able to return to Kyoto for the rest of his life."
Feng Changlin was a little embarrassed, but he accepted it calmly.
