481:Marriage (4)
Everyone wants to live, and Shangguan Wan is no exception. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
But after such a dark few months, she would rather die than go back.
"Are we going north to find Brother Lanting?"
Since agreeing to go north together, Shangguan Wan seems to have unloaded some heavy burden, and the whole person has become brisk.
"Hmm. Jiang Rongqin nodded, and added, "The road will be more dangerous, Wan Niangzi must be mentally prepared." ”
Shangguan Wan had vaguely heard about the situation in the north and knew that there was a scuffle between the Tsing Yi Army and the Red Lotus Sect over there, but could this be more terrifying than Zhangfu?
Her eyes sank, and her expression was resolute, "Sister Rongqin, don't worry, I'm not afraid." ”
This should happen sooner rather than later, and the troops were ready to leave in two days, which was three days earlier than originally planned.
Shangguan Wan hid in the trilogy camp for more than half a year, at first she was a little cowering, her mental mood was very unstable, and her body was very weak, but later Jiang Rongqin took her to learn martial arts to strengthen her body, plus Shangguan Wan herself has a certain foundation, and she learned quickly.
Now not to mention killing and capture, at least you can have the ability to protect yourself.
Zhang Zhao was wronged in Liufu, and when he went back, he cried with her husband and complained.
thought that her husband would help her for the sake of her dead son, but he slapped Zhang Zhao instead.
That's it, the other party also scolded her for being short-sighted, and I couldn't wait to drag her to Liufu to apologize.
Zhang Zhao was stunned, and the anger in his heart came up, and he cried and scolded her husband.
"Why should I apologize to an unchaste and unclean woman? That Gu Zhen is not a good person, Chao Qin Duchu, is it possible that even you have been hooked by her? She harbored Shangguan Wan, a little cheap hoof, you want to make our son die blindly!"
Zhang Zhao's husband was also blinded, and I don't know when his wife became so unreasonable.
He smiled coldly and said word by word.
"You ask me why? Just because she comes from a famous family, just because her husband is a Chongzhou pastor. In today's world, if people want you to die, you won't be able to live, understand? Look at it the other way, what do you have? Let's not say whether your daughter-in-law was harbored by her, the key is whether you have evidence? Where is the human and physical evidence? If you don't have anything, you dare to come to the door to ask for someone, it is really a shrew's act!"
Zhang Zhao wanted to refute, but her husband said, "You will have less contact with the stepfamily of the Shangguan family in the future, look how disgusting you are now." You are grinding your daughter-in-law at home, and I am fighting for one eye and closing one eye, I just hope you don't go too far. Although the Shangguan clan doesn't favor her anymore, in the end, what people keep in their bones is Shangguan's blood, why do you torture others to death?"
Zhang Zhao opened his mouth, and only after half a sound did he say, "I am her mother-in-law." ”
Her husband sneered, "People have already written a letter of resignation, and after the clear road of the official mansion, what kind of mother-in-law are you?" If you didn't give birth to her and didn't raise her, what would you do to decide the life and death of a person? Just rely on the few books you hold all day long? Have time to read the words of the real sages and read less of these crooked things. ”
Zhang Zhao's husband said this, not because he thought the fourth female book was bad, but because his mother was also the daughter of a second marriage.
Looking at Zhang Zhao's distracted expression, he pursed his lips and left with his sleeves brushed.
Zhang Zhao suddenly collapsed, with an expression on his face that seemed to be crying but not crying.
Her husband was determined to ask her to come to the door to apologize to Gu Zhen, and if she didn't agree, her life in the house would be difficult in the future.
The son-in-law she gave birth to was sick and still a eunuch, but the sons born to her husband and other concubines were smart and healthy.
Because of this incident, her husband felt that her sister-in-law was incomplete, and it was all Zhang Zhao's pot, and she rarely entered her room since her sister-in-law was born.
Her belly has not moved, and the concubine's sons and daughters have jumped out one by one.
In the early morning of the second day of the new year, the trilogy was ready to leave, and before leaving, Mrs. Gu Zhen invited Shangguan Wan to watch a good show.
Shangguan Wan looked at the plain and completely unfamiliar woman in the mirror in disbelief, and deeply felt the magic of Mrs. Gu Zhen's hands.
"My sister taught me a good craft. The steplady said in a flat tone.
"I don't know what kind of show Madame asked Wan'er to watch?" Shangguan Wan asked.
Mrs. step-sister said, "I'll know later, hide behind the screen and wait, just watch the play." ”
It didn't take long for the porter to come to the door.
Shangguan Wan subconsciously tensed her nerves, and her fists clenched tightly.
"Mrs. Zhang, a rare guest, why did you think of coming here?" The step-lady's voice passed through the screen and entered Shangguan Wan's ears, and she said in a weird manner, "I don't have your young lady of Zhang's Mansion here, so I still want to lead someone to search for it today?"
After a while, Shangguan Wan heard the familiar voice of her former mother-in-law.
The vitriolic and meanness on weekdays was replaced by flattery, and she had a low and small posture, and she couldn't imagine how majestic and arrogant she was in Zhangfu...... Now...... Shangguan Wan secretly bit her lower lip, listening to Zhang Zhao's flattery and apology to his stepwife, shouting "Mrs. Liu" cordially, and her heart was inexplicably happy.
The step-lady reacted coldly, and the other party said a dozen or so sentences, and she responded impatiently.
Even if she was so sloppy, the other party still carefully held her and flattered her.
After listening to the kind words of the ear, the step-wife finally raised her noble hand and sent Zhang Zhao away, and the other party was on the verge of amnesty.
Waiting for the people of Zhang's Mansion to leave completely, Shangguan Wan quietly walked out of the screen.
The step-lady said, "Did you hear all those words clearly?"
Shangguan Wan nodded, "I heard clearly." ”
The step-lady took a sip of tea, the red rouge on her lips was still gorgeous, and she lightly opened her lips.
"When it comes to prestige and status, in this place between the rivers, the Liufu is not much higher than their Zhang Mansion. But you also saw what she looked like. Guess why that old woman is so low and small, holding me everywhere?"
Shangguan Wan thought for a moment, "Because of Uncle Liu?"
"Not because of my brother-in-law, but because of the soldiers and horses in my brother-in-law's hands. The step-lady smiled and said, "Wan'er, I have met you at first sight, and I pity you very much, so I will say a few words here--if you hold the military power one day, those people will also flatter you with shy faces." Only when you are strong can you not be bullied by others, and all external forces are unreliable. Nowadays, you are on your own. ”
Shangguan Wan is the daughter of the Shangguan clan, no one dared to provoke her in the past, and she has the highest status among the nobles in the river, because she is favored by the Shangguan clan, and everyone is afraid of the power behind her.
But when Shangguan Wan lost the love of her family, she was abused and treated so badly that she almost forced herself to commit suicide.
The step-lady made it clear, and Shangguan Wan was a thoughtful person who understood what she meant.
But...... She's just a woman, can she really do that?
