The main courtyard of the Zhu Mansion. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, Mrs. Zhu and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Cui Si, sat together.
Mrs. Cui Si is teaching Mrs. Zhu to say, "...... My good aunt and grandmother, this time you must have a better attitude towards your eldest young master no matter what, and coax him to hand over the Ruyi Fang and Jiangnan Taozhuang Boat Workshop in his hand to you. That's a lot of money, and the output of your makeup in a year may not be as much as one percent of those two properties. Therefore, what should be endured is still to be endured, and what should be done superficially is still to be done. When he hands over the property, how to deal with him is not a matter of your word. ”
Mrs. Zhu said impatiently: "I know, you've said it a few times, can't I even tell the weight of this." ”
Mrs. Cui Si was really afraid that she wouldn't be able to distinguish the severity, and she also regarded Zhu Hong as the concubine she had pinched in her hand before, and said: "Don't like to listen to my words, aunt and grandmother, I'm all for your good." And you have to guard against the old lady of your family, lest she take the lead and coax the eldest young master. ”
said and said: "The eldest young master is now twenty-six or seventeen, the son of another family is at his age, the children can go to school, you should also marry him a daughter-in-law, so as not to let people outside say that your mother-in-law is not virtuous." But this young master's daughter-in-law has to choose well. ”
Mrs. Zhu turned her head to look at Mrs. Cui Si and said, "Since you said such a thing, there are good candidates?"
Mrs. Zhu smiled and asked, "What do you think of my Yunniang?" She is your niece, and she will definitely help your aunt to hold the eldest young master after passing the door. ”
Mrs. Zhu snorted coldly when she heard this, and said, "You are willing to marry your own daughter to a concubine." ”
Her brother and daughter-in-law have always been shrewd and play the abacus properly, but don't treat her as a fool, if Yun Niang marries, the property and silver in Zhu Hong's hands and what she has to do with her will already go into her pocket.
Mrs. Zhu raised her chin slightly, and said proudly: "Yun Niang is a person who has a hard life, if I marry her to Zhu Hong, others will think that my mother-in-law wants to harm him." ”
Mrs. Cui's face was cold, Yun Niang was her biological daughter and had been married once. But the family's blessing was not enough, and within half a year of Yun Niang's passing, her father-in-law and husband died of illness one after another. She was reluctant to let her daughter suffer, so she asked Yun Niang to let her daughter return after she finished her filial piety to the dead ghost son-in-law, and was ready to find another home for her. But because of the reputation of this Kefu, it is not easy to find relatives.
What Mrs. Cui Si doesn't like the most is that others mention Yun Niang Kefu's hard life.
Mrs. Cui Si looked at Mrs. Zhu and was a little annoyed in her heart, but thinking about Zhu Hong, she took a deep breath and had to endure this breath for the time being.
Mrs. Cui Si smiled, moved out of the Cui family's room to press her, and said: "The Hou Ye of the long house also means this, the Zhu and Cui families have been good for generations, and this generation still has to continue this in-law relationship, so the meaning of the Hou Ye is also to find a girl from the Cui family for Zhu Hong." ”
Mrs. Zhu couldn't help but sink her eyes when she heard this, and she had to be cautious in her heart.
Cui Jue, the eldest master of the long house, is the elder brother of the Queen Mother, who inherited the title of the Ningguo Mansion, and now holds the military power and sits on one side, not in the capital.
Cui Wen, the second master of the long house, is the younger brother of the Empress Dowager Cui, because the Cui family made meritorious service to the first emperor Conglong, and rewarded An Guohou with the title, although he was a marquis, he enjoyed the treatment of a prince. Coco Choi is now sitting in Gyeonggi to help the Choi family and the Empress Dowager contact all forces in the court.
The long house has one room and two lords, and the status of the Cui family is transcendent, and almost no one can sit on an equal footing with the long house. The seven rooms of the Cui family are all looking forward to the long house, and they are married daughters like Mrs. Zhu, but they dare not listen to the opinions of the Cui family's room.
The Cui family's room not only wants to marry the Cui family girl to Zhu Hong, but it also seems that it also has some intention of beating the property in Zhu Hong's hands.
Mrs. Zhu thought for a while and said, "Since this is the case, then I think Peng Niang is more suitable." ”
Peng Niang is the concubine of Mrs. Cui Si, because her aunt is very favored by Mr. Cui Si, and even Zhu Peng is also favored in front of Mr. Cui Si, Mrs. Cui Si has always regarded the mother and daughter as a thorn in the side.
Mrs. Cui Si clenched her fists, a little secretly hateful.
But Mrs. Zhu thought in her heart that even if she had to marry a girl from the Cui family, she would have to find a candidate who Mrs. Cui couldn't control and could listen to her, and Zhu Peng, who was born as a concubine, was the best.
Mrs. Cui opened her mouth and wanted to say more, but as soon as she opened her mouth, the maid outside hurriedly ran in, shouting as she ran: "Oh no, no, madam, the eldest young master shot an arrow at the second young master, and the second young master was so scared that he fell from the tree." ”
Mrs. Zhu stood up from the couch as she listened, her eyes widened, and she said angrily: "What, this son of a scum!" said and asked anxiously: "Is the second young master injured?" What about the people who followed the second young master, why didn't they protect the second young master well, what did they eat. And the doctor, it's not clean yet. ”
The maid replied cautiously: "The second young master has been crying, thinking that he broke his leg." I've already asked the little guy to go out and ask for a doctor. ”
Mrs. Zhu was distressed and angry when she heard this, got up from the couch, and said with a smoking head while preparing to go out: "This dares to harm my Rong'er, see if I don't break his body into ten thousand pieces, I can't spare him......"
Mrs. Cui Si hurriedly grabbed her and reminded her: "Auntie, calm down, you think about the silver and property in the hands of the eldest young master, but you can't settle accounts with the eldest young master at this time." He is no longer the concubine of the year, and at this time, how can he be willing to hand over the property to you. ”
Mrs. Zhu said coldly: "He dares!"
The concubine who has not married and has not divided the family is not allowed to buy private property, which is clearly stipulated in the law of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the prevention is that the concubine privately transfers the clan property or some unclear fathers are eccentric, and the concubine gives the family property to the concubine in advance, which damages the interests of the concubine. No matter how powerful Zhu Hong is, no matter how much she earns her family business, it will belong to the Zhu family, and it will be her dissolution in the future.
Mrs. Cui moved her eyebrows and said, "Why don't he dare, if he hands over the property to the old lady in anger, then no one can say that he is not, what can you do as a mother-in-law, when the time comes, it will be your old lady who will be cheap." ”
Mrs. Zhu had calmed down a little when she heard this, but when she thought that her son had broken his leg by him, she still stomped her feet with hatred and said, "I knew that I should have killed him back then." ”
Mrs. Cui Si smiled: "If he dies that year, how can he earn this large piece of property for you." If you want me to say, aunt and grandmother, you should be glad that you didn't kill him back then. ”
Mrs. Zhu calmed down, and then said, "Then I'll go and see how Rong'er is doing." ”
Mrs. Cui Si hurriedly pulled her back to sit on the couch and said, "Auntie, at this time, you can distinguish the priorities." The second young master has a maid and a doctor to take care of him, and there is no big incident. The eldest young master has already entered the mansion and will soon be here for you, and you should be waiting for him here now. ”
said without forgetting to remind her: "Don't forget, have a better attitude towards the eldest young master." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, a maid's voice came from outside: "The eldest young master is here." ”
