Chapter 117: Honor in Troubled Times 85
The family was a big trouble as early as when the Great Qi was first built.
There is a saying among the family that there is no thousand-year-old dynasty, but there is a thousand-year-old family.
Some of the great families of the Great Qi Dynasty have indeed been passed down for hundreds of years, and now they are already deep-rooted, and it is difficult to get rid of them.
But in An Ning's view, it wasn't that difficult.
In the end, since the time of Qi Taizu, he began to weaken the power of the family and vigorously promoted the Hanmen, after so many years of hard work, the family has been much weaker.
But these are not enough, what An Ning wants is that there will be no more family troubles from now on.
After all, Li Guifei's system was now frantically absorbing Qi Luck, which made the demise of Great Qi shorten a lot.
Heavy rains next spring are a sign of this.
An Ning plans to recover the entire Jiangnan as soon as possible after the spring flood next year.
There are many families entrenched in Jiangnan, and after the recovery, these families must be uprooted as soon as possible.
The Zhang family had no eyes, and they thought very highly of themselves, they really thought that Xiao Yuan would need to rely on their strength, so they crashed into it like this.
Since he is the leader, An Ning doesn't mind taking the Zhang family under the knife to test whether her idea is right or not.
Xiao Yuan quickly understood An Ning's thoughts.
"What do you want the sixth to do?"
An Ning smiled and closed her eyes: "Secret." ”
All right.
Xiao Yuan knew that An Ning was finally angry, so he could only sleep honestly.
Xiao Ling quickly took Xiao Ying and ordered all the people to go to Jiangnan.
They did not go with great fanfare, but quietly passed by sea boat.
When they got on the boat and left, the Zhang family didn't know anything, and they were moving around in Nanyi.
An Ning sent away Xiao Ling and Xiao Ying with the front foot, and Wyeth came with red eyes on the back foot.
"What's wrong?"
When An Ning saw her, he hurriedly asked, "Who provoked you?" Hurry up and sit down and take a sip of tea first. ”
Wyeth sat down and slowed down for a while before saying, "Third sister-in-law, I can't live this day anymore." ”
"What's wrong?"
An Ning asked with concern.
"Xiao Laosi, he hasn't been back for a few days. Wyeth gritted his teeth angrily: "I don't agree with him taking a concubine, so he took that woman as an outer room, and bought a house for her to live in outside, I'm afraid I've lived there for the past few days, and he also bought a room for that woman, I asked people to inquire, and the people over there call that the woman's wife, so what am I? I accompanied him Xiao Laosi to endure hardships and sin, and gave him children, what am I?"
Wyeth was really sad and indignant.
He has been married to Xiao Jin for many years, and he has always been gentle and deferential, whether it is Xiao Jin or his children, he is single-minded, and he thinks that he has never done anything out of the ordinary.
But what about Xiao Jin?
That's where to go, I just want to be small, if it's really ...... If it really hits the capital and Xiao Jin becomes the prince, then maybe what's going on, maybe the little concubine and aunt of the mansion will come to answer her.
"What are you going to do?"
An Ning didn't comfort Wyeth too much, but asked her what she thought.
Wyeth thought for a while: "I, anyway, I don't agree, that woman can't be an outer room, he Xiao Laosi has the ability to divorce me, and I will obey him if he takes that woman back generously, otherwise, he will not have any other women in his life except me." ”
If it was earlier when he was in the Pingguo Mansion, Wyeth would not dare to say such a thing.
But it's different now.
Wyeth has experienced too much from the capital to Nanyi, and his temperament is much stronger, and the folk customs here in Nanyi are not the same as those in the capital, which makes Wyeth more courageous.
"Third sister-in-law, did the fifth family set up a female household by themselves, and now they are living with Kai'er?"
Wyeth asked for peace and tranquility.
An Ning nodded: "Exactly." ”
Wyeth laughed: "If Xiao Laosi doesn't listen to persuasion, I will also set up a female household, I will live with my children, and I will have nothing to do with him in the future." ”
It seems that Wyeth really broke Xiao Jin's heart.
An Ning thought that Xiao Jin should not be as simple as putting an outer room, maybe he also said something uncomfortable.
"I see what you mean. ”
An Ning patted Wyeth's hand: "Don't worry, your third brother and I will make decisions for you." ”
Wyeth is feeling a little better.
After Wyeth left, An Ning asked Xiao Qing and Xiao Zhu to inquire who sent the woman Xiao Jin received, and find out the woman's situation by the way.
It's not hard to ask, and it's not a secret.
Moreover, on Nanyi Mansion's own territory, there are not many things that want to hide from peace.
Soon, Xiao Qing and Xiao Zhu inquired.
The woman Xiao Jin received was called Bai Mei, and she was also sent by the Zhang family.
It is said that the woman is very good-looking, she looks like a fairy, and she has an arrogant and cold temperament, anyway, it is not the same as the vulgar stream.
Xiao Qing and Xiao Zhu came back and said to An Ningyi: "Mother, we also watched quietly, that woman didn't go out, we guarded for a few days, and when I met her going out to buy something, I glanced at it from a distance, she looked good, and she looked fairy, but she always felt very awkward, anyway, it just made people feel wrong." ”
An Ning was very curious when she said this: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Qing shook his head: "I can't tell what's wrong, but I always feel that woman is very fake, as if she is not a real person." ”
As soon as he said this, Xiao Zhu seemed to think of something: "Mother, I remember, Bai Mei looks good-looking, and she looks very cold, but she doesn't seem to have a little heat on her body, and she always feels ...... Unlike people, she, yes, her every move, what she says and does seems to be, they are all designed, how far she takes when she walks, how wide her mouth opens to show a few teeth when she speaks, and when she should do what she does, it seems that there are rules. ”
His words made An Ning frown.
"Okay, I see, you guys go play by yourself. ”
Xiao Qing and Xiao Zhu went out with a smile, and An Ning got up and said to Chun Xing: "Ask someone to prepare the car, and I'll go to the Fourth Master's Mansion." ”
Chun Xing went out to ask the steward of the outer courtyard to prepare the carriage and horses, and An Ning changed her clothes to find Wyeth.
When she passed, Wyeth was teaching Xiao Keer to do needlework, and when she saw An Ning coming over, she hurriedly said, "Third sister-in-law." ”
Xiao Keer also put down the work in her hand and saluted An Ning.
An Ning smiled and touched Xiao Ke'er's head: "Ke'er, I have something to say to your mother, you go play first." ”
Xiao Keer smiled and took the girl out.
Wyeth asked An Ning to sit down, and An Ning waved his hand: "Don't sit down, you change your clothes and bring someone with you, let's go see that Bai." ”
Wyeth also knew who Bai was, and immediately changed his clothes.
She deliberately set up the shelves in the main room and wore a garnet red embroidered butterfly dress.
An Ning looked at it: "Changed, wear that royal blue." ”
Wyeth hurriedly changed into a royal blue dress, and An Ning picked out jewelry for her to wear.
Wyeth called a few rough women with sharp hands and feet, and then called a few big girls, and asked a few powerful attendants from the outer courtyard to bring them.
After picking the people, she and An Ning took a carriage to the outer courtyard.
The outer courtyard that Xiao Jin bought is not close to home, Zhennan Hou Mansion and Wyeth are here in the east and north of the city, although the outer courtyard is also in the east of the city, but it is very southern, almost next to the edge of the south of the city.
The carriage came out of this side and walked for a long time before it reached the outer courtyard.
