That old lady is the old lady that Chen Afu saw in the Jade Qilin Silver Building in Dingzhou - Chen Shiying's wife. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The day before yesterday, Chen Afu specially pulled the shopkeeper Luo and talked for a while, inquiring about Chen Shiying's family. Her reason is that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the only way to prevent it.

Steward Luo also felt so, so he unreservedly said everything he knew about the Chen Mansion.

Chen Shiying has a wife and two concubines, his wife Jiang, and has a daughter and a son. daughter Xinger, girl name Chen Yuqing, thirteen years old. son Chen Yulan, eleven years old, is also Chen Shiying's only son. Tang is a noble concubine and has a daughter, who is a big one, named Chen Yuhui. There is also a concubine who is Aunt Green, who was the girl of the Jiang family and gave birth to a daughter, who is only seven years old this year, named Chen Yuxia.

Back then, it was Aunt Tang's father who took a fancy to Chen Shiying, and when Chen Shiying was still in Shi'an Mansion, the provincial capital, he found Chen Shiying's mother's brother, which is now Zhao Lizheng.

I don't know how Father Tang and Zhao Li told Mrs. Chen, and I don't know how they persecuted the Wang family, but the Wang family agreed to go back to their parents' house. After returning to her parents' home, her stepmother Ding forced Wang to marry within half a decade. Wang not only agreed, but also took the initiative to pick Chen Ming, who was about to die...... Fortunately, the Wang family picked Chen's name, because the Ding family had already found the next one, and if the Wang family no longer wanted her, they would sell her to a Lingnan foot merchant......

I don't know how much silver the Tang family gave Zhao Lizheng and the Ding family, anyway, within a year later, Zhao Lizheng's family purchased 200 acres of land, and successfully pulled the original Lizheng off the horse, and he became Lizheng. Ding not only bought ten acres of land, but also renovated the thatched house into a large tiled house......

More than half a month later, Chen Shiying returned to his hometown to learn that Chen's mother had driven the Wang family away, and verbally kissed the Tang family, which was furious. ran to Wang's mother's house to take her back, but at that time Wang had already married again. Chen Shiying is not good at treating her mother, but she is angry with the Tang family and resolutely refuses to marry the Tang family. Chen's mother forced her son to marry Tang again.

At this time, Jiang Daren, who was the prefect of Xiangzhou in Hu'an Province at the time, asked Wu Daren, who was the county magistrate of Sanqing County at the time, to talk about his second daughter, Jiang Xiaoyu. When Chen's mother heard that she was the daughter of the prefect, she was overjoyed, and she did not force her son to marry the Tang family, but agreed to hire the daughter of the Jiang family instead.

After Chen Shiying weighed the pros and cons, he also felt that marrying the daughter of the Jiang family would be of great help to his career. Besides, the Wang family had already married another woman, so he agreed to marry the Jiang family.

Maybe Chen's mother did something to be manipulated by the Tang family, and Chen Shiying finally agreed to take the daughter of the Tang family as a concubine. The Tang family knew that they were a merchant family and could not compete with the official family, so they retreated and agreed to be their daughter's concubine, but it must be a noble concubine.

So, the Chen family suddenly bought a four-entry house in Sanqing County with a sudden extra amount of money. Three months later, his wife and concubine entered Chen's house one after another...... After that, Chen Shiying went to the capital to take the exam, and he was a blockbuster and was appointed by the saint as Tanhualang......

Chen Afu said incredulously, "At that time, Chen Shiying was just a poor man, how could Lord Jiang tolerate him accepting a noble concubine at the same time?"

Steward Luo said, "I heard that Lord Jiang's second daughter, who is now Mrs. Chen, has killed two fiancés before, plus she looks mediocre, and she has not been hired at the age of seventeen, so the family is very anxious. When Lord Chen was taking the examination in Shi'an Mansion, Lord Jiang happened to be in Shi'an Mansion and met him. After that, Lord Jiang asked his fellow Wang to inquire, if Chen Juren did not get married, and his character was still good, he would help to say that he was compatible......

He also said that Mrs. Chen's reputation is not bad, although she looks mediocre, she is dignified and virtuous, and she is in line with the chic and handsome Chen Tanhua, and her husband sings with her wife. Because the Chen family did not have many heirs, they also took the initiative to give their maid to Lord Chen as an aunt......

Mrs. Chen's father, Lord Jiang, is also considered to be a prosperous official, and now he is serving as a servant of Sanpin Siqing in the capital.

……

Chen Afu gathered away his thoughts and walked towards the house with his feet raised.

Mrs. Chen wore a dark brown jacquard brocade cotton robe, a pea-green skirt, a jasper hairpin on her gray-white head, and a pine-colored beaded forehead. Her thin lips pursed into a line, which made her nasolabial folds deeper, more serious and powerful.

Sitting below her sat a girl of about fourteen years old, who had also seen it in the Silver Building. She should be the eldest girl of the Chen family from Aunt Tang, fourteen-year-old Chen Yuhui.

Under Chen Yuhui, there was a woman with beaded hair. This woman is about thirty years old, and she should be Aunt Tang.

Aunt Tang is not ugly, and she can be said to be quite beautiful. Chen Yuhui is inherited from generation to generation, and he has not inherited the good appearance of his parents, especially like Mrs. Chen. Rong has a long face, small triangular eyes are slightly raised, and the corners of his mouth are drooping.

There were two people standing behind the old lady, one was a mother-in-law in her forties, and the other was a teenage girl.

Chen Afu ignored the few people who were stunned there, and asked Chen Mingdao directly, "Dad, are you okay?"

Chen Ming got up and walked in front of Chen Afu, and said in a low voice, "Dad is fine, that ......"

An extremely majestic voice sounded, it was Old Madam Chen. She frowned and said, "Ah Fu, when you see me, you don't know how to salute. And how did the Wang teach you?"

Chen Afu ignored the old lady and said softly to Chen Ming, "Daddy, don't be nervous, there is a daughter here, it's fine." Then he whispered in his ear, "Where is my mother?"

Chen Ming's eyes glanced in the direction of the bedroom, meaning that the Wang family was in the bedroom.

Chen Afu nodded, she didn't want the Wang family to be humiliated by Mrs. Chen in person.

After that, Chen Afu said to the old lady with a side face, "My father and mother taught me so well, and others praised me for my talent and appearance, and Lan Xinhui." ”

The people pouted.

The old lady was so angry that she just wanted to burst out of her mouth when she cursed, but when she thought of today's purpose, she forced her anger down. said, "Ah Fu, do you know who I am?"

Chen Afu said, "The first time I saw you, how would I know who you are." ”

The old lady said, "No wonder you don't know, this is the first time our grandparents have met." I am the mother of Chen Shiying, the prefect of Dingzhou, that is, your own grandmother. Ah Fu, you should call me grandma. After saying that, the expression on his face also became charitable.

In her opinion, the little girl from a poor family, as soon as she knew her background, would definitely be surprised, and immediately kowtow to her and recognize her ancestors...... When she saw the little girl who came in, her appearance was eighty percent similar to her son, and she was also surprised. I was impatient at the beginning, such a good little appearance, if it was really worthy of the mud legs, it would be a pity to be a good chess piece.
