Author: Silent outside the string

Chapter 71 Betrothal to Jinlan

However, at that time, their mother's illness was so severe that they did not bother to deal with Xu Wan and devoted themselves to taking care of their mother's illness. Later, when their mother passed away and Xu Wan came to power, they also stopped fighting. Their mother was no longer alive, so they fought for their mother.

What's the point?

But...why are father and Xu Wan involved in mother's death?

Feng Xi collected her thoughts and then slowly said, "When my mother first became ill, I felt strange that although she was weak, she never had symptoms of vomiting blood. The doctor said that her lung meridian was blocked due to stagnation of heat.

If the condition is like that, vomiting it will help the condition, but every time the mother vomits, she will become weaker."

"And Aunt Xu, who had always been a low-key person, suddenly gained power. She came to my mother's hospital every day, just to pay her respects, but in fact, she was causing trouble for her. Although we were not angry, it was Aunt Xu who was favored. It was her father who gave her the capital to show off her power.

There is nothing we can do.”

"Later, my second sister and I got married one after another, and you, my younger sister, also entered the palace. Xu Wan became even more lawless."

"And it was only after I got married that I gradually understood that the back house seemed calm and calm, but in fact there was an undercurrent. It wasn't until a few days ago that Cuiping next to me also developed similar symptoms to my mother. First she kept coughing, and then

He also gradually coughed up blood..."

Feng Yu suddenly asked, "Is it the Cuiping beside my mother in the past?"

Feng Xi nodded, "It's her."

"She is the most capable female historian around my mother. She is always the strongest and rarely gets sick!"

"Now I have a suspicion, how come my mother and she have the same disease?"

"Later, I remembered that I was weak after childbirth and had been drinking the prescription left by my mother, so I secretly took it out and asked an unfamiliar doctor. The doctor said that these medicines are mutually reinforcing and incompatible, and there is no difference between them.

It’s totally wrong, and in the prescription I gave him, the amounts of two drugs were changed. The original prescription for warming the meridians and replenishing the lungs would become a prescription for tonic. Over time, the congestion will become more serious..."

"When Cuiping was with my mother, she took medicine for her. She also held this position when she was with me. Even though she was healthy and strong, she has been drained of her health in the past few years."

"But my mother never told me the origin of this prescription. I always feel that it has something to do with Xu Wan."

Feng Yu said angrily, "Who else but her?! Isn't that prescription the same as when she was pregnant? She said she was not feeling well every day and asked her father to ask a famous doctor to see her, so her father also asked him to come and treat her mother.

Is it?"

"So, I secretly sent someone to find the miracle doctor back then, and also asked people who were close to Feng Mansion's former mother."

"It's a pity that Xu Wan has sold and driven away the people around her mother over the years. It is really difficult to trace. If the Yun'er beside Xu Wan can be used by us, this matter will not be difficult."

"Huh!" Feng Yu snorted coldly, "If she doesn't have any evil intentions in her heart, why is she doing this?!"

"Yun'er is dead."

Sheng Shaoqing's words shocked Feng Yu and Feng Xi, and Feng Xi trembled, "You shouldn't have been burned to death, right?"

Sheng Shaoqing, who had opened his clairvoyance, secretly admired his eldest sister's intelligence. It would be a waste not to go to Dali Temple to investigate the case.

"It was Xu Wan who killed her."

Sheng Shaoqing said "Huh", "To be precise, I let Xu Wan go home because I wanted to see what private matters were going on between her and Yun'er. But I didn't expect that Xu Wan got away with me."

Same thing, I just killed Yun'er two days ago, and set fire to my house yesterday."

It is more destructive than Erha.

She also didn't expect that Xu Wan would end up in a fire and die together with Feng Jin. This shows that it is true that poor criminals should not pursue this. At least there was hope when she was living an ignoble life in Jingning Temple. Now, when she returned home, she found that her family

Xu Wan was stolen and felt that she was on the road to death. She had no business and had to take Feng Jin with her to support her.

Xu Wan's life can be considered glorious. A few days ago, the noble ladies in the capital had all complimented such a person of humble origin. Even if it was just superficial, it still made her happy. Unexpectedly, in the end, it would be a bamboo basket beating.

The water is empty.

Feng Xi sighed, "She has been punished for her evil deeds."

"But eldest sister, how do you say it has something to do with father?" Feng Yu only belatedly remembered that Feng Xi had mentioned his father.

"Ayu, let me ask you, have you ever had a quarrel with your sister-in-law in all these years of marriage?"

Feng Yu was confused by Feng Xi's question, "Of course, we have a big quarrel every five days and a small quarrel every three days. Who told her to always pick on me and give me eye drops?"

"Then has your husband ever scolded you for this?"

Feng Yugang wanted to say that it happened in the past. After she had a fight with her sister-in-law outside, she would have to fight with her husband in the courtyard. However, since her younger sister became the queen mother, her husband also respected her, and her sister-in-law didn't care much about her.

Dare to openly disagree with her.

However, she still shook her head, "No." She didn't want her elder sister and younger sister to know that she had a bad life in the past.

"Then your husband's concubine has ever disobeyed you?"

"How dare they?!" Feng Yu said loudly. Although her Feng family is not a high-ranking family, it is more than enough to match his Li family. Although their family has many disputes, they have strict etiquette and laws. How can they let concubines kick their noses and dare to let her

Is this main wife embarrassed?

"That's it. If your husband respects you and loves you, naturally no one will dare to deceive you or hide from you. But if your husband doesn't do this, then it will naturally be effective and everyone will dare to step on you."

"My mother's weakness is certainly her shortcoming, but when my father acted like this, didn't he give Xu Wan a chance?"

"If there had not been Xu Wan, there would have been Yu Wan, Hu Wan, and Liu Wan. Therefore, the crux of the problem lies with the father."

Feng Xi turned to Sheng Shaoqing and said, "Queen Mother, I discussed it with Ayu before I came here. I still have the dowry when I got married. I have also saved some land over the years. I should be able to fill it up by selling it off."

The Queen Mother does not need to worry about this hole."

Back then, they owed Feng Qing eight years, and now Feng Qing should not have to face all this for them. Even if she is the Queen Mother, these things are just a matter of words to her, but with them, Feng Qing first

She is their little sister, and later the Queen Mother of Beiliang.

Sheng Shaoqing was a little stunned. She didn't expect that the two sisters already had countermeasures when they entered the palace. She was speechless for a moment, and then she quickly said, "How can we get the two sisters to use their dowry? The Ai family will send people to repair the surrounding mansions, but the family may need

The two sisters took great care of me."

Seeing that Feng Xi was still pushing and pulling, Sheng Shaoqing realized that something was wrong. Why were the three sisters scrambling to pay for such an old man? They usually held it in their mouths for fear of melting, but held it in their hands for fear

Where is the son who fell?

He is proficient in eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling, and has ruined his family fortune, and now he wants to suck their blood. How can there be such a truth in the world?!

"Sister... my whole brother is already an adult and is an official. He is not a three-year-old child. How can we be held responsible for him?"

Feng Xi frowned and said, "But he said that he... doesn't have that much money."

"Why doesn't he think about how little money he has at home when he goes out to gamble?"

"Why doesn't he think about how little money he has at home when he goes out for fun?"

"If something goes wrong, I remember he has three sisters. If he continues to spoil him like this, something big will really happen!"

Feng Yu nodded wildly in agreement, "That's right!"

"But if we don't help one or two, I'm afraid it won't look good!"

Sheng Shaoqing thought for a while, since he is an official and receives a salary from the court, it is not excessive to use his salary to support his family. If one month's salary is not enough, then two months until it is paid off.

"Sister, what's the problem? He is working in the court now and receives a salary from the court every month. Since he is in a hurry to spend money, he can just take it on credit. Why do we need to pay for it? When my brother grows up, he should also bear his own responsibility.

Responsibility."

"Tell me, how much money is he short of now?"

Feng Xi was shocked by the method Sheng Shaoqing came up with, but when she thought about it carefully, it was indeed a method. She just didn't know what the Queen Mother was thinking, so she had to stumble and report a number.

Sheng Shaoqing counted with his fingers and found that it was almost half a year's salary, no more, no more.

"But…………"

"Nothing but", Sheng Shaoqing waved his little hand, "Sister, just say it was the Ai family's oral instructions, and asked him to use his salary in exchange for the money. The harvest in Lu's fields will not count. There is only one thing. If he still likes to gamble, I'm sorry.

I don’t mind if he turns white.”

Feng Xi had no choice but to agree to this method. Only Feng Yu almost laughed out loud. Their good brother had to suffer now.

However, selfishly speaking, although she does not like this younger brother, if he continues to hang around like this, life will not be easy for them. Her father used to be negligent in discipline, but Xu Wan doted on him and doted on him until now.

This lawless look.

"Sister, even if my father is well now, he will still be disabled. From now on, Feng Mansion will be in charge of all my brothers. If he makes some progress after this incident, if not, in the future..."

Feng Xi said coldly, "If he had made progress, he wouldn't beg us."

"I will have a detailed discussion with my brother when I go back and let him understand the pros and cons. If he doesn't listen, there's nothing we can do about it."

After seeing off his two sisters, Sheng Shaoqing sighed, their family was really unfortunate.

However, every family has its own problems. Feng Quan is the only one in the Feng family who can jump out and cause trouble. It seems that there is still hope to correct the evil. In this regard, Sheng Shaoqing decided to hand over the important task of guiding the bad boys to the right path.

Give it to the eldest sister.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have already sent the two ladies back. Supervisor Chang has come to report that the several companies he ordered previously have already sent the candidates to the capital. They are just waiting for the selection date to be decided by the Queen Mother."

"What day is it today?"

Forsythia laughed and joked at the side, "It's true that noble people forget things so much. I only said two days ago that I would worship the stove within two days after returning to the palace, but now I have forgotten it. Early tomorrow morning, the stove god will ascend to heaven!"

At that time, I was trapped in Jingning Temple due to heavy snow. When I had nothing to do, I asked about the day, and found out that it was going to be the New Year in a few days. This was the first year in another world. How was it going to go?

"Then what's the point of worshiping the stove in the palace?"

Sheng Shaoqing remembers that in modern times, every family had to pay homage to the Stove Lord every New Year. The Stove Lord was sent by the Jade Emperor to observe good and evil in every household. He would go to heaven every year to report on his work and would come back after the New Year.

Most of the sacrifices used in worship are things that stick to the teeth, so that the Kitchen God will not be able to say bad things when he goes to heaven.

It can be seen that the broad masses of the people's good wishes to prevent the Stove Lord from going to heaven to complain often adopt the simplest method of blocking their mouths.

Forsythia thought for a while, and when she saw Cui Yun who was smiling and saying nothing, she said something bad, "You have to ask our hostess, Sister Ajun."

Cui Jun didn't expect that this could involve him. He was just about to say something to Forsythia, but in the blink of an eye he saw the Queen Mother's curious face, and hurriedly said back to the Queen Mother, "Sacrifice to the stove is usually done at night. The Kitchen God will go to heaven the next day, and there are many sacrifices."

It is something sticky to the teeth, such as sugar melon. Due to the difference between the north and the south, the shapes of these offerings are different, but the prayers are all about the Kitchen God saying good things from heaven and coming down to earth to bring good luck."

Cui Yun was not surprised at all that the Queen Mother asked this question. It was not surprising that the nobles did not know about these things. She had been in the palace for so many years and had interacted with female palace maids a lot, so she knew that there was such a custom among the people.

Sheng Shaoqing thought for a moment, "After the Little New Year, it will be New Year's Eve in a few days. Don't put off this year's affairs until next year. I will set out the questions tomorrow. They will enter the palace to take the exam the day after tomorrow. It will be better if they have the results before.

A peaceful year.”

"Then, those people..."

Seeing the way Cui Yun was hesitant to speak, Sheng Shaoqing knew what she was worried about, "Tomorrow morning you will go and bring the chosen children into the palace, and in the afternoon you will bring back the news that the children of their clan have committed crimes. At that time, the direct descendants will

The children are already in our hands, so we can’t let them make the choice!"

Cui Yun immediately set out to organize the affairs in full swing. Forsythia saw Cui Yun coming and going in a hurry, and couldn't help but sigh, "If I could work so hard, I wouldn't be just a second-class envoy now."

When Sheng Shaoqing heard Forsythia's sigh, a familiar feeling rushed over her face. Wasn't this the same mental activity she had when she saw the busy figure of the company's king?

Poking Forsythia's bun, Sheng Shaoqing said, "You have your own advantages. If you work so hard, you won't be Forsythia. But you reminded me that since you want to be promoted, I will give you a promotion after the year."

How about becoming a first-class female historian?"

As a leader, she is always aware of what is going on. If she wants a promotion and a salary increase, she will get a promotion and a salary increase. As long as she does a good job, she will have no problem with it!

Unexpectedly, Forsythia waved her hands one after another and said, "No, no, no. My maid understands your kindness, Queen Mother, but I really don't have the ability. You'd better not promote me."

Why would anyone refuse a promotion or salary increase?

Seeing that the Queen Mother was still puzzled, Forsythia explained, "Young lady, I have never had any ideas for advancement. I used to work as a rough servant in the Shang Palace Bureau, and I have been working with Lady Cui. Later, Lady Cui served you. I

Just following Miss Cui to serve you is already a great blessing, how can you dare to ask for a promotion?"

"My maid just wants to do what she should do and have a clear conscience."

If Sheng Shaoqing hadn't remembered that their identities were different, she would have immediately remembered her sworn relationship with Jin Lan, the Forsythia who resonated with her soul.
