Chapter 791: Returning in Embarrassment
Feng Gongzi and his entourage took the succession paperwork, and left the county office, as for how Peng County ordered to deal with the concubine and the children, that was his business, however, a parent official who spoiled the concubine and killed his wife, and a mother who couldn't control the concubine who ran to the county government to find a man without authorization, well, it seems that the future of Xiangcheng is worrying.
It doesn't matter, the uncle and nephew take a look at each other, it's really not good, just replace the person.
Back to the rudder, Feng Er Gongzi had already eaten and drunk medicine to rest, there was no way, now he has to eat regularly and quantitatively, and there is still medicine to drink, but the medicine he drinks now is not for curing diseases, but for recuperating his body.
Xuanyi sent someone back early to tell him about the situation, and he was relieved to know that it was the people of the yamen who deliberately delayed and that there was no other trouble.
Feng Gongzi accompanied the old owner of Feng to dinner, and then the uncle and nephew parted ways, the old owner of Feng went to see his grandson, oh, now if it is a grandson, it is not sure what the name is, and the nickname has not yet been decided, his old man came out of Liancheng, and he was flipping through the book all the way, wanting to give his grandson a good name that is good to listen to and remember, and blessed, but until now, it has not been decided.
Feng Gongzi went to see his second brother, his second brother often ate and drank medicine, should rest but did not sleep, leaned on the bed to read, repeatedly persuaded not to listen, Lan Tang knew his habit, and told Feng Gongzi to stare at him.
When he entered the second son of Feng's room, he really didn't sleep.
When he saw his brother come in, he hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
"That's it. β
Feng Er Gongzi put down the book, smiled and lay flat, his brother came, he was still honest. "Why is it delaying so long?"
"Peng County's ability is insufficient, I'm wondering if I can find a way to move a nest for him. β
"How did he offend you?"
Feng Gongzi snorted and told the second brother what happened in the yamen today, and the second son of Feng laughed after hearing it, "I knew that it must be your face that caused trouble again." β
Feng Gongzi didn't care, he had this face since he was a child, and he had long been used to being entangled by some people with other thoughts.
"Uncle is still worried about the name of the little nephew, do you want to help come up with ideas?" Feng Gongzi saw that his brother was very interested in seeing his jokes, and was busy looking for trouble for him.
"Don't. Feng Er Gongzi refused very simply, "That's the uncle's baby, if our suggestion is not good, it will be fine, if it is good, he wants to use it, but he thinks that he didn't start it himself, and he must be awkward for a while." β
That's just as well. Feng Gongzi said in his heart and asked about the rudder.
Feng Er Gongzi has not yet arrived at the rudder, he has already sent someone to investigate, as soon as the younger brother asked, he began to find fault with the rudder master, all the way to the door to watch the door, but in the end it was still in the recuperation period, and he fell asleep while talking.
Feng Gongzi tucked the corners of the quilt for him, and told the little servants to wait for him before leaving.
As for the county government, it is a mess.
Mrs. Peng first pulled out the mother-in-law who watched the second door, and then sold all the people who had to be used around Aunt Zhang's mother and son, and specially explained that if the family was not allowed to sell in one place, it should be sold far away, and she immediately cried as soon as she came out of the hall.
Mrs. Peng was unmoved and drank tea, and a confidant of Aunt Zhang's mother pointed at her nose and scolded her, and Mrs. Peng's companion stepped forward and slapped her more than a dozen times, swelling her cheeks and losing several teeth.
"You are not waiting well, you know that your aunt is going to make mistakes, but you don't stop her, and help her against your wife, this is your way of being a slave? Hmph! You dare to point at your wife and scold, it can be seen that you are dishonest, and you must have done something out of line with your aunt in ordinary times. β
The companion room is very powerful, every word is from the position of thinking about the reputation of the master, she does not point at Aunt Zhang and say that she is wrong, but puts all the mistakes that Aunt Zhang will make on these people.
I have to say that there is no daughter in the middle, her plan is going smoothly, knowing that Aunt Zhang and the three are at fault, she does not target Aunt Zhang's mother and son, but takes their people under the knife.
Aunt Zhang, after a few years of experience in house fighting, knows that there is no one at hand, and seeing that Mrs. cut off all the people waiting around their mother and son, how can she not be anxious, but Mrs. did not say that she was at fault, but helped her to blame her subordinates for all the faults, in the eyes of Master Peng, this is his wife's generosity.
didn't know that his wife's trick was vicious.
Aunt Zhang is just a concubine, can compete with the main mother, all thanks to Lord Peng's peak couple, after sending her over, she was worried that Aunt Zhang was young and ignorant, so she sent a few people to her, anyway, whether she can collect these people, as a help for her, it depends on Aunt Zhang's ability and understanding, Aunt Zhang is a smart person, after subduing these people, she killed the aunt who Mrs. Peng carried up, and took charge of the housekeeper, Lord Peng's income over the years was saved in her hands, Lord Peng was busy with foreign affairs, and the inner house was completely handed over to herγ
When Mrs. Peng came over, there were already a group of subordinates around her who were loyal to her, and later the power of the family was handed over, but because of these subordinates placed everywhere, Aunt Zhang had the confidence to fight against Mrs. Zhang.
If she can't keep these close attendants, will those who have been assigned everywhere listen to her in the future? Or will she turn around and go to Madame?
She was anxious to speak, but Master Peng was annoyed because she dragged her children and daughters to flatter in front of the distinguished guests, and did not take him as a husband in her eyes at all.
"Just now she said that she didn't finish talking, I'm afraid that she has annoyed the distinguished guest, let her be quiet for a few days!" After Master Peng finished speaking, he got up and brushed his sleeves away, anyway, his wife only wanted to deal with the people waiting next to Aunt Zhang, and she didn't actually hurt Aunt Zhang's mother and son, he believed that his wife acted in a measured manner, so he gave her full authority to deal with it.
As for Aunt Zhang, Mrs. Peng and the other people outside the door nodded to her, which meant that Master Peng had gone away, so she chuckled at Aunt Zhang and said, "Sister, the master has explained, let you shut up and be quiet for a few days, just be aggrieved and endure for a few days!"
Mrs. Peng smiled and turned her head, "Come on, send Aunt Zhang back to the room, by the way, the master told her to be quiet for a few days, so the things on her mouth are not allowed to be taken off, and you can only take it down when the master says it is enough." β
"Yes. β
Mrs. Peng only pointed out two servant wives to Aunt Zhang's mother and son, and the concubine has already married, in fact, even if she didn't point to the servant woman to him, she still has her own daughter-in-law to wait, and she will be treated the same as his aunt and sister, but she doesn't want Lord Peng to have a reason to trouble herself!
As for the little maid, and Aunt Zhang's mother and daughter's maids, don't worry, wait for Master Peng to say that Aunt Zhang's punishment is enough, and then find someone to bring someone to buy a new one.
She didn't want to give the people she had cultivated with great difficulty to these white-eyed wolves.
If you buy new people from outside, it depends on whether her people can take the first step to collect people for their own use, or whether Aunt Zhang is powerful and can bring the hearts of those newcomers together.
However, she believes that with the experience of today's people, new buyers should know how to choose if they are not stupid.
Mrs. Peng won a rare victory, very happy, in the evening, specially prepared the dishes and wine that Lord Peng loved to eat, the husband and wife had a drink for two months, poor Aunt Zhang waited in the room, all the people waiting in her courtyard were sold, only two servants sent by Mrs. Peng, they were illiterate, Aunt Zhang had something stuffed in her mouth, she couldn't speak at all, and she couldn't talk with a pen.
Unexpectedly, until the sky was bright, there was still no figure of Master Peng, and she was so angry that she smashed all the things in front of her.
After smashing it, she found out that it was bad, it was her most cherished jewelry box, she smashed it like this, the lock of the jewelry box was smashed, and the jewelry was scattered all over the ground, she was busy bending down to pick it up, but she didn't see the eyes exchanged between the two servants.
Before Madame sent them over, she could tell them that as long as they had the ability to coax Aunt Zhang to give them their belongings willingly, then all the things they got from Aunt Zhang would belong to them.
I thought Aunt Zhang didn't have any good things, but I didn't expect that there were a lot of good things in her hands!
Peng Yiquan was dragged away by his aunt, and his daughter-in-law testified to this, so Mrs. Peng didn't do anything against him, but in order to treat everyone equally, the servants and attendants around him were all replaced.
He was at ease with what he encountered, and he didn't care, anyway, the people who were waiting around him were all sent by his aunt, who always kept him alone, and was greedy for his money, and used his name to swagger and deceive outside, he just didn't say it and wasn't stupid, he didn't want to change, but those people were coincidental, and his aunt would rather trust them than believe in her own son, and it was in vain to say it, so she simply didn't say it.
Now that his grandmother has changed people, he really has no other thoughts than to breathe a sigh of relief.
But Peng Lizhu is not as indifferent as him!
Her aunt said so many good things about herself in front of the distinguished guests, but they didn't even look at themselves, which hit Peng Lizhu's self-confidence a lot, and she had no time to pay attention to her aunt's current situation, as well as the cries for help from the maids around her.
When she came back to her senses, the room was quiet, only a lamp like a bean, lonely on the table, Peng Lizhu got up in surprise and shouted, "Where are the people?
She opened the door in a panic and rushed out, not wanting to collide with two servants, who had been sent by Madame Peng to serve her, one carrying a food box and the other carrying a lantern.
"Where are you going, Fourth Miss?"
"You, who are you, the people next to your mother?" Peng Lizhu recognized the identities of the two of them, as the servants in her mother's yard.
"Yes. Madame sent us over to wait on the fourth lady for the time being. β
"Wait for me, I don't need you to wait, I have my own maid to wait, I don't need you, you go back for me." β
The servant woman who carried the food box felt that the food box was very heavy, so she had little patience to speak, and said bluntly, "How can there be any people waiting around the fourth lady?
She didn't believe it, and the next few maids shouted so badly, and the fourth lady sat in the room and didn't hear it? Who are you fooling? Hmph! Those maids can be said to have grown up waiting for the fourth lady all the way, and for many years of master-servant relationship, the master didn't even help them say a word, and now they are still pretending to be here, who are they pretending to see?
Peng Lizhu really didn't know, all her maids were sold, she didn't believe it and looked around the yard, and found that the house was really empty, and there was no one.
Mrs. Peng is still very good at being a person, although she sold the human cane, but they took away all their belongings, even Aunt Zhang's subordinates.
It's just that after they have been beaten and injured, and after they are sold, will they be able to keep those belongings?
If someone is smart enough to exchange a small for a big one, and redeem himself with those possessions from the hands of human traffickers, he may still be able to survive, but he may also be robbed and killed because his property is exposed.
Anyway, what she wants is not the gratitude of these betrayed people, what she wants is for these subordinates in the house to see clearly, she is the housemother of this family, no matter what Aunt Zhang promises them, as long as she, the housewife, does not agree, everything is empty talk.
The servant woman who came to wait for Peng Lizhu understood that no matter how horizontal the fourth lady was, she was still a concubine, and her lifelong affairs were in the hands of her mother-in-law, if she was smart, she would be honest and obedient, and Mrs. would not treat her lightly.
The servant woman carrying the lantern tugged at her companion and said, "Fourth Miss is hungry, right? Eat something first! Whatever you want to do, you must first fill your stomach." β
"What about my aunt?" If my aunt dares to treat her like this, then her aunt will definitely not be pleased, and maybe it will be even worse! Thinking of this, she panicked for a while, her aunt is the backbone of her and her brother, and her aunt can't fall, her brother has already married, but she hasn't married yet! If her aunt falls, what will happen to her marriage? Who will call the shots for her? Her father? Her father listens to her aunt, and her aunt is about to fall, and her father will soon be coaxed by her mother-in-law.
Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still, let alone eat, but the two servants were sent to serve her, how could she be allowed to run around without eating?
When she arrived at Aunt Zhang, Peng Lizhu saw what was in her aunt's mouth, and was busy going to pull it, but was stopped by the waiting servant.
"This is what the master ordered, and the fourth lady is not good to tear it off. β
"With such a gagged mouth, how can my aunt eat and drink?"
"When I eat and drink, I will take it off, but the master also said that I want my aunt to be quiet for a few days, so even if I take things off, I am not allowed to speak. The servant replied respectfully, but in Peng Lizhu's eyes, she was provoking herself.
On the fire, she only felt that her eyes were fiery red, and she rushed up and tore at the servant woman, and the other three were not fuel-efficient lamps, and quickly ripped her away.
She was young and had no power to restrain the chicken, which was the opponent of the four women who were used to rough work, she did not ask for the slightest favor, and was pinched and pinched several times by the servants.
The pain made her cry, and Aunt Zhang could only whine to appease, and she couldn't say anything bad.
In Xiancheng, Wang Jinyan's sisters came back from the inn crying, and Mrs. Wang learned from her confidants that she had done something these days, although she didn't remember it, but she remembered the pleasure of beating and scolding Wang Jianyi's parents.
I thought that her daughter and several nieces had no news for a long time, that is, they successfully followed Feng Gongzi and them to Fengjiazhuang, but she didn't expect her daughter and them to come back suddenly.
"What's wrong with you?" asked Mrs. Wang, hugging her daughter in distress. "Didn't you already go to Fengjiazhuang with Feng Gongzi and them? Why did you run back again?"
Wang Jinyan was disgusted, "You also said that we haven't seen Feng Gongzi and them since we moved in, let alone go to Fengjiazhuang with them." β
Mrs. Wang was stunned, "Since you didn't leave, why didn't you come back?"
"We thought they wouldn't leave for a while to run errands, who knows if they won't come back!"
"So, the cost of these days?" No wonder Mrs. Wang wants to ask, she must be willing to pay for her daughter's consumption, but it does not mean that she is willing to pay for those nieces to enjoy.
"Mother, Feng Gongzi, they are so stingy! They only helped us pay for the accommodation, and we had to pay for all the food, and we were not allowed to leave without paying.
She didn't dare to tell her mother, she thought that she lived in the inn, and all the expenses were paid by Feng Gongzi, so she and her sisters got together to eat and drink, and asked the guys at the inn to help them go to the dim sum shop and restaurant outside to buy food.
I didn't expect that when I wanted to leave, people settled accounts with them, and they blushed but had to pay, but the little girl would bring a lot of money with her when she went out, and finally had to use the jewelry as collateral.
