Chapter 187: Rumors

The preparations for the separation of the family are proceeding unhurriedly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Changfang Yao family set up accounts in the middle of the year, and the family and others all speculated privately. Whether it is a long room or a third room, there is no intention to hide the separation, but it is just unintentional. As a result, the news that the three heads of the Qin family were going to split up quickly spread. It was first spread in the Chengenhou Mansion, and within two days, it spread outside. Not only relatives and friends are old, but even those who don't interact with each other much have heard the rumors.

Some people were surprised, some people talked about this as gossip, some people suspected that this had something to do with the three rooms that had just returned to Beijing, and some people felt that the Qin family should have split up a long time ago. It has been 30 years since the death of his parents, and his three sons are full of children and grandchildren, and they are still separated, which is really rare. Perhaps in the past, it was only because the third room was not in Beijing, and there was no news, and the second room was an orphan and widow, so there was no mention of the separation?

Of course, some people think that the Qin family has a double marquis, once the family is separated, the long room and the three rooms have titles, which is fine, but the second room without the title will inevitably suffer, not to mention that the second room is still a concubine.

There are really a lot of people who have this kind of thought, and there are also people who don't have a backache when they stand and talk, thinking that the long room and the third room have titles, and there are holy families, and it is the time to gain power, so why bother to mention the division of the family, and the second room that is tired and weak should be divided? It seems that the second room is a burden. Some people even think that since the long room has not mentioned separating from the second room for 30 years, now that the third room returns, it will be separated, and it is clear that the third room cannot accommodate the second room. I don't know what grievances there are between these two heads? It's just that the third master of Qin, who has just returned to Beijing, is the new Yongjiahou, and his gas is too small.

It is impossible to test whose mouth this kind of gossip came from. But it is clear that the gossip preachers are biased, and the contradictory claims are flying everywhere, and for a time it is difficult to tell which is true. Within two days, there was a new version.

This time it was news from the Qin family's room. It is said that after returning to Beijing, the third room received a lot of rewards, and the emperor had a house, so it was impossible to live there empty, so he made preparations for moving. Since you are going to move into a new house, you must also have to wear servants and all kinds of furniture. There is no reason for these things to be repurchased with all the money, there are ready-made things in the Chengenhou Mansion, and the third room also has property in his hands, so he can just take it out and use it. As for the servants, there are still many idlers in the family in the Chengenhou Mansion, and the tenants in the grange also have children who can be called up. This is a very common thing, and it is the same in every household, and they do not leave all the things and servants that are ready in the house, and they go to buy new things. However, the second room of the Qin family was deeply dissatisfied with this, thinking that the long room was biased towards the third room, and the third room of the long house had a knighthood, so they bullied the second room and took the opportunity to encroach on the property of the public middle school. Yongjiahou Qin Bai was afraid that the relocation would cause the family to be restless, so he proposed to split the family. After the property is divided equally, each house gets its share, and there will be no more disputes.

This kind of thing is common, but as soon as the news spreads, it can't help but make people feel that the second room of the Qin family is too calculating. Even if the third room moves to a new house, what if you need to use the furniture and maids in the Chengenhou Mansion? The second room is the same, but the third room is not good? The Qin family has never been separated, and the property in the public is all shared by the three rooms. The third room is used, how can it become an encroachment? It can be seen how the family members of the second room are in character. In this case, Yongjiahou Qin Bai proposed to divide the family, which is also a proper meaning, so as to save the future for some trivial things, the rooms will quarrel non-stop, and the family will be troubleless.

As soon as the rumors of this version came out, public opinion in Beijing suddenly favored the Qin family's room and the third room, and almost everyone felt that the second room was stingy, and it was appropriate to divide the family. After hearing about the second room Xue and Qin Bofu's mother and son, they almost got angry. The former gritted his teeth and said, "No! If they continue to talk nonsense like this, our mother and son will have a bad reputation, and what future will we talk about?

Qin Bofu was sullen: "It's just spreading gossip, what Changfang does, we do too!"

Xiao Xue's worriedly persuaded: "Forget it, don't you forget it, Changfang is not a vegetarian, if we do too much, they will only use more means, and it is our second room that suffers at that time." Let's ignore the rumors outside, we ignore them, and those rumors will gradually disappear. When we are separated, we will move out and live for three or five months, and who will remember these nonsense? When the time comes, the uncle will still have a good future, and the sister will still be able to talk about good family affairs. ”

Xue Shi hated iron and said: "Could it be that we let others bully the door?! You also know that Changfang is not poisonous." This time, they deliberately bully others, and if we endure this breath, they will only gain an inch, thinking that we are soft particles. When the time comes, what good things can you give us?!"

Qin Bofu also scolded his wife: "Shut up for me! Who said that the family was going to be separated? It is all the long room and the third room talking to themselves, we don't separate!"

Xiao Xue opened his mouth and closed his mouth helplessly. Now, they don't want to split up. Instead of thinking about how to stop the separation, or how to overwhelm the public opinion offensive of the long house, it is better to think about what to divide earlier.

Xiao Xue's family does not reject the separation of the family, but she feels that it is not a bad thing to divide it. Because the second room lives in the Cheng'en Hou Mansion, their eyes are only staring at the wealth of the Hou Mansion, but they can't see their own catties clearly. If the family goes out separately, mother-in-law Xue and her husband Qin Bofu can recognize their identity and status, stop making foolish things, and maybe they can live a more comfortable life. It's a pity that no one can understand her hard work in the second room.

Within two days, from the in-laws of the Xue family's second room, the Xue family, a version of the rumor also came out, saying that the Qin family's room and the third room disliked the second room, and they wanted to deduct property when they divided the family, saying that the family property was divided equally, but in fact, it was just a nice word. Qin's family room obviously just wanted to take some money indiscriminately and sent away the second room. The long room and the second room have been disliked for many years, but they just pretend to be harmonious in front of outsiders, but inside they are hoping that the second room will be poor in the future. The third room is the lackey of the long house, Yongjia Hou Qin Bai is a nerd who doesn't care about things, the village girl he married in the northwest is the most greedy for money, in order to share more money, he helps the long house bully the second room, and he doesn't know what etiquette and shame are!

The Xue family said it explicitly, and public opinion was also in an uproar. To be honest, whether the Qin family's room and the third room are not in harmony with the second room, outsiders may not know the specific situation, but the people close to them can still detect a little bit. Not to mention that the Qin family's room has a grudge with the second room, the Qin family's second room doesn't take the long room in their eyes on weekdays. The Xue family in the second room has never had any scruples when he said bad things about the concubines in the long room in front of people. It's just that Changfang at least knows how to cover up, understands the truth that family ugliness cannot be publicized, and will also make a face for the second room in front of people. I don't know if what the Xue family said meant by the second room of the Qin family. If it is really instructed by the second room, then they take the initiative to publicize the ugliness of the family, and it is not an act of etiquette.

As for the statement that Changfang intends to give less money to the second room - the Qin family is still just taking inventory, and before the time comes to divide the family, the second room has determined that the long house will not divide the family property equally, is there really evidence, or is it just nonsense? If it is the former, it is naturally the Changfang's, and it is dissuaded in time, anyway, there is still time to dissuade it. If it is the latter, the second room is really even more unbearable than the long room in their mouths. To put it bluntly, they just wanted to share more property, so they deliberately publicized the ugliness of the family, so as to persecute the long house and the third room.

There will be such a change in public opinion in the outside world, and the mother and son in the second room are also very surprised. In fact, they are also negligent and take it for granted. There are many high-ranking families in the capital, and there are many houses with partial branches, which one can really get fair and just treatment when the family is separated? That is, it is so good-looking that outsiders can't find fault with it. The second room Xue and Qin Bofu's mother and son just lost because they took themselves too seriously, thinking that the second room of the concubine could really be on an equal footing with the long room and the third room of the concubine. Moreover, taking the initiative to publicize the ugliness of the family and speak ill of the elders in front of outsiders can be said to have touched the sensitive nerves of the family - whether it is reasonable or not, this practice is the most unpopular.

The second room was a little caught off guard for a while. Qin Bofu was even more anxious. Because of this kind of rumor, not only did the Xu family of the long room and Qin Bai of the third room talk to him separately and exert pressure, but even his top boss asked him to talk for a long time, vaguely, but the meaning was clear, that is, let him not go too far, and take into account the decency of the court officials.

Qin Bofu wanted to scold people very much in his heart, but their Qin family wanted to split up, and the heads of the various houses were fighting openly and secretly, and the big families in the capital, if there were too many such things, where would the dignity of the court officials be ruined?

But later, a colleague who was good friends with him secretly handed him a message, saying that the boss was looking for him to talk, not because he was nosy, but when the boss was playing the right role in the imperial prelude, he was ridiculed by other ministers and imperial history, saying that he would not teach his subordinates, so that his subordinates had such a greedy character. At that time, the emperor sat on the dragon chair and listened, without saying a word, without the slightest intention of speaking for his nephew, obviously dissatisfied with the behavior of the second room of the Qin family. This boss persuaded Qin Bofu that he also had good intentions, afraid that he would not be able to touch the holy will and do something wrong, and he would not end well in the future.

Qin Bofu was suddenly shocked. How did the news of the separation reach the palace?!

In addition to being surprised, he had twelve grievances in his heart. Obviously, his father Qin Huai is also the half-brother of Empress Qin, why is the emperor so partial to his third uncle Qin Bai, but he refuses to help him say half a good word?

However, no matter how aggrieved Qin Bofu was, he didn't dare to continue to spread bad words about the long room and the third room. He went home to discuss with the Xue family, and asked the Xue family not to mention the separation of the family to the outside world, but just to wait for the limelight to pass, and just wait for the separation of the family.

Who knew that the second room had stopped, and the third room had popped up. Yongjiahou Qin Bai went out to visit a friend, and inadvertently mentioned it in front of his friends, saying that the family was divided, and it was indeed divided equally among the three rooms, and the long room and the third room had reached a consensus, and there was no intention of deducting the second room. Even if there is indeed a disagreement between the long room and the second room, but the rules and etiquette are placed there, how can they make a violation of etiquette? Qin Bai invited several relatives and friends to be witnesses of the separation, including the prince of the clan and the Xue family. Whether it is fair and just, when it comes to the day of separation, it will naturally be known.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the world praised Yongjiahou as a gentleman, and the Qin family was also a kind person. However, the second room that doubted this and that before became an example of living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

When Qin Bofu found out, he almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
