The second room of the Jia family, Aunt Zhao’s small courtyard.
Tanchun sat there blankly, not moving for a long time.
Aunt Zhao didn't scold her as usual, she just tidied up the room silently, put a bowl of chicken soup on the table next to Tanchun, covered it with a lid, sat aside, and sighed deeply.
Although my silly daughter is shrewd and can see through people's hearts, she is a commoner after all. Even if she is capable, she will never be taken seriously.
The wife didn’t even let go of her own son’s money, so how could she let go of Tanchun’s money?
Young Huan'er happened to be back visiting relatives, so he took away the money in his hand. He never thought that his sister's money would fall into the hands of Mrs. Wang in just one night.
Although the old lady scolded the wife, the master also scolded the wife.
But everyone's attention is finally on Baoyu.
Mrs. Wang took 20,000 taels of Baoyu and returned only 15,000 taels of silver and gave the remaining 5,000 taels to the Xue family.
But all the five thousand taels of silver from Tanchun fell into the hands of Mrs. Wang.
No matter the old lady, Jia Zheng, Baoyu or Jingui, they didn't think about fighting for Tanchun's share of her interests.
The scene after scene directly broke Tanchun's heart.
Since getting up this morning, Tanchun has been sitting there without saying much.
Although I could eat and do things normally, I lost my spirituality after all.
Tanchun has been aware of her life and situation since she was a child, so she has devoted herself to being filial to her husband and wife, but now, they have not even looked at her.
"Dong dong dong!"
Jia Huan strode in. Looking at Tanchun who was stunned, a trace of distress flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Sister, I already know the matter. I will go to my wife to make it clear. If she doesn't pay back the money,
I asked her to put the white knife in and the red knife out!"
As he said that, he turned around and went out.
"Come back!" Tanchun shouted!
Then he turned around and said calmly: "Isn't it just five thousand taels of silver? What is it worth? As long as you are promising, it doesn't matter if I feel a little wronged."
Aunt Zhao also hurriedly grabbed Jia Huan and said, "You're such a bad guy, you're going to bring trouble to me when you come back! If these words get out, your reputation and future will be ruined!"
Jia Huan snorted coldly: "At worst, if I go to Guihua City, they will only know that I am a son of an aristocratic family who came from the capital, and everyone will be extremely respectful! In this way, I have dozens of lives in my hands, and I am afraid that she will be ignorant and stupid.
The wife is not allowed to do it!"
"Shut up!"
Jia Tanchun raised his eyebrows and shouted coldly: "Huan'er, even though you are now a royal guard, but you have to bear the reputation of being unfilial, who will look at you seriously? Who dares to use you? Even if your second brother-in-law is a member of the Dali Temple
Even senior officials can't save you!"
"snort!"
Jia Huan snorted, sighed again, then sat down and quietly folded the Feiyu suit he had just taken off.
Jia Huan's face was pale but calm.
"Sister, I have some savings on hand, which is enough for us to travel far. I want to report back to the master, so I will take my mother and you to Guihua City. We won't have to suffer this bad news in the capital, okay?"
Aunt Zhao and Tanchun were startled and couldn't help but look at Jia Huan.
When did Huan'er, who had always been such a careless person, become so ambitious?
Jia Huan said: "My sister tried her best to be filial to her, but she turned out to be so heartless. She took away all the dowry the old lady gave you. She also hated us for being incompetent. I don't understand the affairs of the inner house, otherwise she must be obedient.
Hand over the money! Mom, sister, don’t glare at me. According to me, maybe she values a certain official family and has a good future for the master or Baoyu, so she will marry her sister to be a concubine! I don’t understand at all.
Agreed! I would rather be Cousin Lin’s brother-in-law than a relative of Jianguan..."
"Snapped"
A slap in the face.
But Tan Chunfeng had anger in his eyes and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Aunt Zhao also scolded: "You drank too much horse urine? How dare you say such filthy words? Your sister's innocence is no longer with you! Are you still following you to Guihua City? I think you should give up your heart as soon as possible, don't
When the time comes, we two will be sold by you!"
Jia Huan also knew that he was excited for a moment and spoke out what was in his heart. He smiled hurriedly and said, "I made a mistake. Isn't this because I am filled with anger?"
However, he paused and then said: "I went to Guihua City and I knew that the world is huge and full of vitality everywhere. Why bother to be wronged in this capital? Even if you don't go to Guihua City, then go to Songjiang.
There are all kinds of opportunities there. It is the number one young city in the world and will definitely be the number one city in the world in the future."
He looked at Aunt Zhao and said, "Mom, actually, no matter how favored I am, it won't last long. The second wife won't even let her own son go. I'm afraid she won't take us seriously either. If you want me to say,
It’s best if we leave this home as soon as possible..."
Aunt Zhao didn't wait for him to finish speaking, then stepped forward and twisted his ears: "You bastard, if you don't want your mother to be good to you, I'll beat you to death..."
While the couple was fussing on the side, Tanchun's heart felt like a flower blossoming.
Yes, the sky is high and the sea is vast, why do I have to stay in this capital city.
It would be nice to be far away from here.
…
Lin's Mansion and Prince Heng's Mansion are very close to each other.
In fact, several houses between their two families had been bought by Prince Heng a long time ago and used as transportation channels to make it easier for Daiyu to return home.
In addition, Princess Lang's two female officials are not suitable to stay in the palace.
So Daiyu often returned home.
The sisters also come to get together from time to time.
Jia Min is also very happy that her daughter has so many friends, and she is even more happy that her daughter will come over from time to time so that she can enjoy family happiness.
When Sister Feng came to the Lin Mansion again, she had a feeling: "... Baoyu seems to be a different person now. He used to hate financial fame, but now he also learns to read accounts. After reading an account book every day, he will
First I went to say hello to my ancestor, then I went to say goodbye to the second wife, and then I went out to check out the store. My ancestor was very happy when he saw it and said he had grown up.
I just didn't expect that this Xia Jingui would be so tough. Not only did she slap the second wife hard, but she also slapped Zhou Rui's family. The second wife was so sulky that she couldn't get out of bed for several days."
Bao Qin chuckled: "Second Grandma Bao is so powerful, so how can the Second Mistress do it like this?"
Sister Feng said: "Of course not, she doesn't take the second wife seriously, and of course the second wife doesn't like her, so she immediately gave Baoyu two bedrooms. But Jingui is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
She sold them out, and the second wife questioned her, but Jin Gui said directly, "Now that they are in the second master's room, they are under my control. I don't need my wife to worry about how I deal with it." Listen.
, is this what a serious daughter-in-law said? The second wife was so angry that she almost fainted."
Yingchun and Xichun looked at each other and felt incredible.
After all, they grew up in the Jia family and knew Mrs. Wang's skills. It was really hard to imagine that Mrs. Wang was so reviled and didn't even have the means to fight back.
This is really unreasonable.
Sister Feng continued: "The second wife also became angry immediately. She said that Jin Gui was not virtuous, so she took away her power as a housekeeper and asked her to copy Buddhist scriptures and establish rules. However, Jin Gui was not economical either. Her dowry was more than the entire property of the second wife.
, who cares about the power of the housekeeper, she was even more disdainful of Zhou Ziyu's copying Buddhist scriptures to establish rules, and ignored them at all. Although the Xia family was a businessman, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Household also had some respect, so she immediately posted a message to invite a few people.
When the eunuch came to the second room, he began to ridicule and sarcastically mock him, and stopped talking about copying Buddhist scriptures to establish rules!"
"So powerful? Isn't she afraid that the second wife will tell the queen in the palace?" Bao Qin found it incredible.
"hehe."
Now when talking about Daiyu, she sneered.
"Concubine Xian De is about to give birth, but His Majesty has not seen her much. Everyone in the palace knows this. Those eunuchs in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are used to flattering others and putting others down. Naturally, S will not care about Concubine Xian De's face."
Jia Min listened on the sidelines and snorted coldly: "Isn't Miss Xia the daughter-in-law that the second wife asked for herself? Her ability as a housekeeper and her reputation as a virtuous and generous person are also what she said to the outside world. Now she is reaping the consequences. The second wife
Is your brain broken?"
Sister Feng sighed and said: "It used to be the past, and now it is now. Originally, Xia Jingui was born in an imperial businessman, with a family fortune of millions. Marrying in meant that the money might come into her hands, so she was naturally delicate; now Jingui is the daughter-in-law,
She is the mother-in-law, and mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are born to dislike each other. Besides, our wives and I were present in the house earlier. The second wife used Jin Gui's girl as an arm to deal with us, so she naturally looked good on us. Now we are all separated.
, she is the eldest ancestor in that family, why are you so polite? Naturally, I have to show off my mother-in-law's airs and authority to teach my daughter-in-law to be obedient, but it's a pity that I kicked her on the iron plate. I don't know how to regret it."
Xichun said: "Speaking of which, I still envy this second sister-in-law Bao. My mother-in-law has a lot of aunts and girls in the house to deal with and has no time to take care of us. Otherwise, I would have to set rules every day. I can't learn her tricks.
"
Yingchun said: "I'm lucky. My father-in-law and mother-in-law passed away early. My eldest sister-in-law is gone. My uncle said that I want to renew my marriage. Now I'm in charge of the backyard of the house. I have a new sister-in-law. It's no better than before."
Miaoyu had already married into a small and well-to-do family, and said, "I'm okay too. Because of the military turmoil in the past, my husband's family always felt a little guilty towards me, so my mother-in-law took pity on me and didn't ask me to set any rules."
Xing Xiuyan said: "We are from a small family, how can we have such a rule? There is no need to say hello every day, just once every three days. It's just that we have to sit together for dinner every day, so we can accompany you at that time.
A few words are enough, and my mother-in-law doesn't care about us the rest of the time."
Baoqin and Daiyu looked at each other, smiled, lowered their heads and drank tea in silence.
Sister Feng noticed it and was very jealous: "You two are the most comfortable. Even your mother-in-law is not serious, and so is Yinglian. Is she in confinement now?"
Miaoyu shook her head and said: "It's not until February. Although the baby is a daughter, my sister-in-law is very happy and dances happily. She doesn't need the help of the wet nurse and the maid, and keeps guard with her every day. Or the mother doesn't look like it and drives her away.
Come out to work."
Sister Feng said with a smile: "That's good, as long as your brother-in-law likes it, Yinglian can be considered lucky."
Bao Qin smiled and said, "Aren't we talking about Second Grandma Bao?"
After hearing this, Sister Feng laughed and said, "What else can she do? The second wife can only endure it."
Bao Qin frowned and said, "Second Grandma Bao is so arrogant, aren't you afraid that your wife will instigate Master Bao to divorce her?"
Sister Feng said: "Why is the second wife? If she dares to say that Jin Gui is unfilial, Jin Gui will dare to point her nose and say that this mother-in-law is unkind. If things get serious, won't the empress in the palace be unable to behave? Let's talk about this treasure.
The Second Mistress is cautious in everything she does, and she is not as brainless as Yun Yatou. The Second Mistress can't find any way to deal with her. What's more, Jin Gui has Baoyu's heart very much."
Daiyu heard that this was wrong and asked hesitantly: "Did something happen to Miss Shi again?"
Sister Feng couldn't help holding her forehead and sighed: "The Ye family has returned to Beijing, and she has also come back. Yesterday she went to our place to pay homage to her ancestors."
Everyone looked at each other and said, "What's wrong? Isn't this good?"
As soon as Xiangyun was mentioned, Sister Feng had a headache. She waved her hand feebly and asked Nanny Li to speak.
Aunt Li stepped forward and bowed, then said: "Since the last time we gave gifts, the Ye family has been afraid and has respected Miss Smith a lot. Miss Smith feels that she has support, and she doesn't treat her husband's mother-in-law very much."
Respectful, but his words are often arrogant. And because the second son of the Ye family is ordinary in appearance, he is unwilling to treat him with more care, so he is still not pregnant. The young master of the Ye family has a bad temper and is very unhappy with Miss Shi's cold attitude, so he accepts it.
Several girls who were married to their first wife. One of them got pregnant. Miss Shi became angry and said that the Ye family had no rules. How could they let the girl who was married to their first wife become pregnant before her first wife became pregnant? So she wanted to go back to her parents' home. The elders of the Ye family
The Taijun and his wife didn't know the importance, thinking that it was their own flesh and blood, so it didn't matter if they were born from the girl who was married to him, so they also got into trouble with Miss Smith, saying that she was jealous and unworthy. The eldest grandma of the Ye family didn't care and gloated about her misfortune.
Help me from the sidelines."
Everyone was dumbfounded. Xichun turned around and sat aside, chewing melon seeds viciously and saying, "Why doesn't she know how to restrain herself?"
Yingchun asked hurriedly: "What happened next? What happened next? Did the girl from the first house give birth to the child?"
Grandma Li shook her head and said: "Both the master and the young master of the Ye family know the importance of things. They gave a lecture to their old lady, wife, and grandma, and told them the decree given by His Majesty last year.
Abortion pills, but Miss Smith was so wronged that she hid in our house temporarily and refused to return to the Ye family."
Sister Feng said helplessly: "The second young master of the Ye family also knows that he has done something wrong. Now it is already the third day that he has come to apologize to someone. Yun Yatou, the brainless one, is following the trend and is still taking Qiao Qiao.
, making a fuss about asking him to kneel down and apologize, I can hardly stand watching anymore. If he keeps doing this, Second Young Master Ye’s guilt will turn into anger sooner or later. In the current situation, Girl Yun is taking advantage of the situation to turn that
It would be better to get rid of all the girls who live in the same house than to go through this trouble now. Besides, if she is like this, will her husband's old lady and mother-in-law be happy? Sooner or later, she will have to show her sex."
Daiyu asked: "What does grandma mean?"
Sister Feng said: "My ancestors scolded the second young master of the Ye family. He hugged Yun Yatou and told her that she was wronged. But today, I also persuaded her to go back. After all, she is married, and it will not look good if she continues to be willful.
.”
Daiyu sighed: "She still listens to what grandma said, but her temper...why doesn't she know how to change it?"
Sister Feng said: "In a few days, our ancestors will invite a family banquet, and you are all going to go. I will tell you today, and you have an idea. I have thought about it, and I will have a thorough discussion with her tomorrow."
"Say, let's just talk about it. As long as she has a child and has hope for life, I won't care about her in the future." As he said that, he also sighed.
On the second day, except for Daiyu who had difficulty moving due to pregnancy, everyone went to Jia's house together.
Shi Xiangyun was surprised when he saw Miaoyu wearing woman's makeup and Xichun. After hearing about everyone's husband's family, he felt even more aggrieved: Not to mention Xichun, even the nun Miaoyu married better than himself.
Good looking.
You must know that although Miaoyu's husband comes from an ordinary and wealthy family, he is very famous. He is the eldest son of the dean of Hongru Academy.
You must know that Miaoyu's father-in-law was a great man in the world. He taught and educated people. He had six top prizes, six second prizes, and six top prizes. He was known as the "Six Six Sixth Academy".
As the eldest son of the dean of the academy, Miaoyu's husband naturally has both talent and virtue. He will take the scientific examination next year. Some people say that with his talent, he can pass the imperial examination all the way.
Xiangyun's husband came back to the capital and wanted to enter this academy. He looked for many favors and spent a lot of money, but he still failed the written examination.
Xiangyun looked at the brightly dressed Miaoyu with a spring-like face. He was filled with displeasure, and he was even more dissatisfied with the historian: his uncle and aunt were too careless about him at the beginning, and even missed such a good marriage. In the end, he took advantage of a nun, but
It makes me live a miserable life with no rules.
Sister Feng didn't bother to pay attention to Xiangyun who suddenly fell into despair, and just led everyone to Jia Mu's upper courtyard: "It's inconvenient now, I'll take care of her later when I'm free!"
