Chapter Eighty-Three: Lin's Dissatisfaction

In the "Changhong Courtyard", the Lin family was chattering with Tu Hongyi, "The old lady didn't care about everything in the past. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Seeing that the people of the Xu family are about to arrive, they asked me to clean up the courtyard and prepare for the next person. It seems that in the old lady's heart, it is still a young woman who hurts. I have a pestle in front of me every day, and he doesn't have a good face. What's so good about this Xu family? It's just a dilapidated business. ”

Tu Hongyi was silent, and he had also reached the age of ear shun. He has been well-read since he was a child, and he wanted to use his skills to show his ambitions. Unexpectedly, his father was belittled, and he was also implicated, and he was not allowed to be an official, so he had to be a lecturer in "Songxi Academy" all the time. I thought that my life would pass like this, but I didn't expect that after Emperor Qinglong ascended the throne, he would be reactivated. But what can Dr. Guozijian do? In a small city with five grades, if a pie drops in the world, it will hit the capital of the third-grade master, which is really nothing. I can't help but feel a little disheartened.

The wife he married was the concubine of the right man of the Ministry of Rites in the capital. After his father was belittled, the marriages of several children did not go well, and he was no exception.

When Mrs. Tu saw the marriage for him that day, he wanted to find a well-bred daughter. But at that time, Mrs. Tu had just been reprimanded, and the "Songxi Academy" had not yet been established, so where could I find a satisfactory marriage? Later, when I saw that this concubine was raised under the name of her mother-in-law, behaved in a dignified and well-behaved manner, and looked good, she asked to marry.

didn't think about it, but after getting married, I realized that she was short-sighted. The host often has to compete with the subordinates, has no style of the master mother, and does not know poetry and books, only knows a few words, and can understand the account book. Where can Tu Hongyi talk to her?

It's just that the Lin family raised two sons-in-law after all, and they worked hard to keep a family. Tu Hongyi is a soft-eared person in family affairs, and there is nothing big about it, so she is. More often than not, out of sight and out of mind, hiding in Aunt Ye to ask for a clean.

Regarding the Xu family's trip to Beijing, the Lin family has long been dissatisfied. It is said that the Xu family's business is big, and they are one of the richest businessmen in Jiangnan Province, and they haven't said to help them for so many years, but they have given more New Year's gifts. Although "Songxi Academy" is famous, it is not much money that can get back the Tu family and enter the public middle school by relying on those few shackles, and being responsible for the students' food, accommodation, lecturers, etc.

The life of the Tu family is not bad, the food and clothing of the masters, and the maids and servants equipped with it, are all called big families in Beijing. However, the Lin family only stared at the "Splendid Record", and forgot that she was just a famous girl, who could marry into the Tu family and live a prosperous life, and was already the envy of all the sisters.

Lin said as he flipped through the account book in his hand and said, "In the past, when the 'Splendid Record' was in full swing, your second sister never went to Beijing to show her face. Now that her eldest son and eldest grandson are imprisoned in Dali Temple, she remembers us. What is this? If you don't do it, it will affect us!" He pointed to the account book and said, "Look, if nothing else, this public school will cost money everywhere." 'Hanmeiyuan' also has a few mouths, all of which have been raised for many years. Our two sons are saving flowers, and the old lady has to buy paintings. This Xu family has a large family, and there are more than 20 people......"

Tu Hongyi was sitting by the window reading a book, and when he heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he threw the book on Lin's table and said, "What are you talking about? Do you think the business in Jiangnan Province is very good? In previous years, as long as it was a New Year's holiday, the second sister was sending things to the capital. When is the fabric of the four seasons shorter than yours? Look at the cloud velvet skirt you are wearing, and the Confucian robe on Bowen Bosi's body, which one is not made of materials sent by the second sister? Even the Manfen Manzhen is wearing a New Year's gift. Her family suffered such a big incident, she didn't say a word to her mother's family, and she didn't even forget to send something to Jingli. I remember you said at the time that it was all fashionable. ”

It was rare for Lin to see him get so angry, and he was startled. I couldn't help but mutter: "She doesn't have to open her mouth, the old lady puts her on the tip of her heart! You see, something happened to Xu Changzong, didn't the old lady ask someone to deal with her?"

Tu Hongyi's face was so angry that he slapped the table with such force that the account books on the table jumped up. He said, "She is my second sister! She is my father's daughter! Do you want your father to stand by and watch?"

Lin stepped back, patted his chest and said, "You're trying to scare me to death." I'll just tell me what's wrong? I'm not in charge of it, I can't say anything about it? I'm a businessman, and now I have a crime in my body, and if I am a little sensible, I know not to run to my mother's house and affect my family. ”

When Tu Hongyi heard this, he trembled with anger, pointed at her with his finger and said, "You, you are simply unreasonable!"

Lin glanced at the direction he was going out, and pouted, "I'm unreasonable, you don't just have to go to that little goblin!"

As soon as the door curtain was lifted, the eldest son of the two, Tu Bowen, walked in and said, "Mother." ”

Lin nodded and asked, "Did your father go to Aunt Ye again?"

Tu Bowen rubbed the corners of his forehead with a headache, and said, "Mother, don't argue with your father about the matter of your second aunt and grandmother." That's my father's sister-in-law, how can my father and grandfather not care about what happened to her? Didn't you drive my father to Aunt Ye?"

Lin pursed the corners of his mouth and said, "I'm just saying, he's leaving." ”

Tu Bowen said: "When the next person returns, the second aunt's grandmother's family will arrive home around noon." Mother, at this time, you must take good care of them, even if you have any thoughts in your heart, do not show them. ”

Lin said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I still know this." You don't have to go out of your way to talk about this. ”

Tu Bowen looked impatient when he saw her, but as a son, he really didn't want to say anything, so he had to retire first. If there is anything wrong with the scene of the meeting, he will see the opportunity to play a round.

On the Luoshui wharf, it was bustling.

Xu Wenyu leaned on the railing of the boat and looked down, shouting excitedly: "Little uncle, look at it! This place is so big, 10,000 times bigger than Suzhou Wharf and Guazhou Wharf!"

Su Liangzhi smiled, flicked his forehead, and said, "Where is there such a 10,000-fold exaggeration." ”

Xu Wenyu rubbed the place that was bounced red by him, pouted his pink little mouth and said, "Hmph! Uncle, you bullied me, I'm going to tell my sister to go!"

Xu Wanzhen, under Mama Zheng's attention, has been cleaned up properly. In Mrs. Xu's cabin, give her a look.

Mrs. Xu looked up and down, and said with satisfaction: "My true son has really grown up." Although he is still in filial piety, he can't wear bright colors, but he just picks it up like this, and compares it to those noble girls in the capital. ”

Said to Mama Zheng: "Your vision is really good, reward." Biluo on the side took a purse and handed it to Mama Zheng.

Mama Zheng didn't accept it, and said, "Old lady, Miss Xu is the master of the old body, and the old body naturally has to plan for her wholeheartedly." This reward should not be taken by the old body, and he does not want to take it. ”

She was loyal to Xu Wanzhen, and Mrs. Xu saw it in her eyes, nodded with satisfaction, and did not force her to accept it. (To be continued.) )
