Chapter 87: Promise
How did this cheap girl become so powerful?
Despite this, Bai Cuihua still had the courage to cry to Dongfang Huajin: "Huajin, I was wrong in the past, and I am sorry for you!" Now that I know I was wrong, forgive me for once! β
The posture is very low, and the one who cries is called a pitiful. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Dongfang Huajin was very impatient: "Say, what do you want to do?" β
Bai Cuihua hurriedly said: "I just want to ask you for help and help me take back the stewardship from the hands of the concubine!" β
Oriental Painting Brocade flatly refused: "No, I can't promise you this!" Let's go, I'm definitely not going to interfere in your family's affairs! β
Bai Cuihua was anxious: "Painting brocade, you can't help it, my aunt is really desperate!" You don't know, that practice Yan family, she is too arrogant! Today, if you refuse to support me, your uncle will probably divorce his wife and straighten out that practicer! β
Dongfang Huajin looked at her funny: "Even so, what does that have to do with me?" β
Bai Cuihua was stunned for a moment, a burst of panic surged in her heart, and in a hurry, she was a little speechless: "Painting brocade, you have also been abandoned by others, you have been kicked out of the house, you must have had a hard time over the years, right?" For the sake of the same hard-working woman, you have to help me, you can't just leave it alone! β
She heard that Dongfang Huajin hated concubines very much, and over the years, she had helped several wives who were persecuted and oppressed by their husbands and concubines and mothers-in-law, and helped them keep their dowries and the status and dignity of their wives.
Dongfang Huajin sneered: "You are wrong, I was not abandoned, nor was I kicked out of the house." At the beginning, I took the initiative to make peace, and King Qin also gave me a lot of compensation. By the way, this Huali Villa was given to me by King Qin. Over the years, my life has been very good, I don't have to worry about food and drink, and I have made a lot of money. β
"Huh? What the? And detached?! Life is going well?! β
Bai Cuihua's eyes widened in disbelief.
How so? knew this earlier, when she received Dongfang Xiaocao's letter, she didn't instigate her husband to ignore Dongfang Xiaocao. Back then, if she had a good relationship with Dongfang Xiaocao, wouldn't she have to be afraid of her husband now?
You must know that today's Oriental Xiaocao, but King Qin's beloved woman, is a fragrant bait!
It's hard to buy money and you know it!
Bai Cuihua regretted that her intestines were going to be green, and she only felt that there was a blood hole in her heart, and she was so distressed.
"Xiaocao, I was wrong, you can help me! I've heard that you've done a lot of good things over the years and helped a lot of hard-working women. I'm your aunt, and it doesn't make sense for you to help others, but your aunt doesn't help! If this gets out, it's not good for your reputation, is it? By the way, I heard that in another month, Yunjin will get married. If your reputation is not good, Yunjin's husband's family hears about it, and I don't know if it will affect her marriage? β
Bai Cuihua was cheeky, put on a look of crying, and begged bitterly. Rao is so, but he didn't forget to threaten Oriental Painting.
Dongfang Huajin didn't have the patience to listen anymore, and shouted: "Come on, throw this poisonous woman out, throw it away, don't dirty the place where the scholar lives!" β
"Yes!" Zhao Qian personally took a tall subordinate, one person with one arm, grabbed Bai Cuihua and dragged him away. A maid and a mother-in-law brought in by Bai Cuihua were also dragged out mercilessly by two tall guards.
"In the future, this family will be blacklisted, and they will not be allowed to get close to the scholarly house for half a step! If you dare to get close, see it once, hit it once! Dongfang Huajin chased him out and smashed on Bai Cuihua's heel.
It's over! Today, miscalculated!
Bai Cuihua's face was full of ashes, just like a dead father.
Dongfang Xiaocao has completely changed, and it is not something she can handle.
When An Hongyuan got the news, he was immediately angry.
For the eldest brother of Huaxin, for the eldest brother who clings to the virtuous concubine, An Hongyuan said that he could not accept it. remembered the ruthlessness of the eldest brother to him, the viciousness of the sister-in-law to him, the partiality of his parents, and the disrespect and contempt of his eldest brother's children to him; Remembering the time in the previous life, Concubine Xian's son failed to seize the heir, and the people of Concubine Xian's faction almost didn't slip through the net, but anyone who was a little involved at least ended up in exile.
All of this made An Hongyuan unable to face his eldest brother's family and his parents with a normal heart.
An Hongming's family, as soon as they returned to the capital, went straight to Huali Villa.
This is because, before coming back, the concubine's father talked to An Hongyuan and told him that Dongfang Xiaocao is now renamed Oriental Painting Brocade, and he was named the Splendid Township Monarch by the emperor a few years ago, and King Qin is now very affectionate towards Oriental Painting Brocade.
Therefore, the concubine's father told him to find a way to get close to the Oriental Painting Brocade, and to try to pull the Oriental Painting Brocade and the Qin King Song Ci into the camp of the Xianfei faction, so as to contribute to the succession of the Xianfei's son.
Concubine Xian, that is the mother of the second prince, her grandfather is the first-class founding prince Tao Donglai, and the shops are all over the country, not to mention that the rich are rivaled by the country, and they are also people who are not short of money.
Moreover, the second prince is smart and wise, physically strong, and very popular. The prince is too far behind him (this guy was brainwashed by the concubine's father, and he said that the prince and the queen's maiden family were very unbearable).
However, what An Hongming never expected was that the weak and bullying girl Dongfang Xiaocao in his impression actually gave him a feeling of being reborn! No longer weak, no longer afraid of his uncle, no longer obedient to his uncle!
Unexpectedly, it has become so strong, so imposing.
His family couldn't even enter the gate of Huali Villa, and they were still at the gate, so they were forcibly sent to an inn near the scholarly residence. Moreover, he just asked his subordinates to send them to the inn, but he didn't even pay the money.
The Bai family went to Huali Villa, and everyone was put in, but the result was very bleak. Unexpectedly, in broad daylight, he was thrown out of the scholarly house in public!
What could be more slap in the face?!
There was no way, An Hongming had to send someone to the Ministry of Industry and ask his younger brother An Hongyuan to come over.
It's just that the person who went to report to him in Huali Villa was half an hour earlier. He knew exactly what was going on, and he was very disappointed in his eldest brother and parents.
The determination to divide the family and the sect is even stronger!
Ten days ago, he discussed with Oriental Painting Brocade and reached a consensus, or paid money to buy a second-entry house in the capital. is ready to do both, if his father and mother are willing to follow him, then the house will naturally not be given to the eldest brother's family. If the father and mother insist on following the eldest brother's family, then the house will let the father and the eldest brother's family move in, and the mother's name is written on the house, which will be regarded as the mother's dowry.
Sure enough, he was right.
Father and mother were resolutely on the side of the eldest brother, and when they heard that he was going to split the family and the clan, they all scolded him bloody.
However, this time, the second elder thought wrong.
The more powerful and ruthless they are to An Hongyuan, the more they push An Hongyuan far away, making his determination to split the family and sect as solid as a rock, and he can no longer shake half a point.
In the angry scolding of his parents, An Hongyuan didn't say a word, and sent his parents and eldest brother's family into the carriage and sent them to the house prepared for them. However, he left three hundred taels of silver for his parents, and he walked very simply.
The matter of dividing the family and dividing the clan is in a hurry, so it can only be slowly figured out.
Losing the backer of Oriental Painting Brocade, An Hongming sprinkled all his anger on his wife's head, and Bai Cuihua was in a bad mood, so he took his anger out on the heads of several concubines and concubines.
The first one to have surgery was the concubine An Rui, who had no biological mother.
She planned to sell An Rui to a sixty-year-old man as a concubine at a high price, and she was already in contact.
When An Rui heard the news, she was so frightened that she couldn't care about it, so she secretly came to Huali Villa and asked to see Oriental Painting.
Dongfang Huajin saw An Rui once, and his impression of her was good, not such a bewitching and unpredictable girl. So, I agreed to see her.
Today's An Rui, at a glance, is full of sorrow and despair. As soon as he saw the Oriental Painting Brocade, he knelt down and kowtowed: "Cousin, please save me!" I don't want to be a concubine for the old man, please ask my cousin to choose a family business for me, beg my cousin! β
Looking at the poor girl in front of her, Dongfang Huajin did not relent, but she did not refuse: "Okay, I know, you go back first!" I'll give you an answer in three days! β
An Rui said gratefully: "Thank you, cousin, then I'll go back first." β
If there is no refusal, that's good, it means that there is still a little hope.
My cousin is not very enthusiastic about her, which is also understandable, who let her father and mother-in-law, as well as grandparents, not live with others in the past?
Oriental Painting Jin sent someone to send a letter to An Hongyuan.
An Hongyuan asked for leave, took his wife and children, and came to Huali Villa.
"Painting brocade, An Rui, this kid has a good character, and he is a person who knows how to repay his kindness. If you're not embarrassed, give her a hand! This child has grown up since he was a child, and he doesn't know how much he has suffered, but he hasn't raised crookedly, which is a good thing. β
An Hongyuan made such a judgment based on the memory of his previous life and his cognition of An Rui in this life.
Dongfang Huajin nodded: "Hearing what my uncle said, then I'll help, the An family is thin, and it's good to have one more relative who can move around!" β
Having said that, she still sent her own secret guard to investigate An Rui's situation. Sure enough, this girl's character is really good, not such a scheming woman.
When the three-day deadline arrived, Dongfang Huajin sent someone to pick up An Rui.
An Rui was nervous, but her eyes were still very clear, and in the eyes of Dongfang Painting, the only hesitation in her heart disappeared.
Well, it's a good one, don't worry about one day, she will bite herself back and do something ungrateful. It doesn't matter if you don't repay or don't remember your gratitude, as long as you don't do anything betrayal.
In these years, people's hearts are not ancient. It is best not to think about asking the other party to repay the favor, otherwise, the injured person is often the one who gives grace.
"I heard from my uncle that you are a good girl, so I promised to help you!" Dongfang Huajin personally poured a cup of tea for An Rui, and his tone was very calm, but there was a certain sharpness in his words: "I hope that no matter how long it has passed, you will not make me regret my decision today." β
An Rui hurriedly knelt down and swore an oath: "Cousin, thank you for your willingness to help me, I swear here, in this life and in this life, I will never do anything to hurt my cousin and my cousin's relatives!" In this life, I will keep my duty and not do things that bury my conscience! If you violate this oath, the sky will thunder and thunder, and you will not be able to die! β
"Get up! I'll trust you once! Dongfang Huajin stretched out his hand to help her up, but his voice suddenly became much more severe: "Remember my words, life is not smooth sailing, and you may encounter many unexpected hardships." However, no matter what time it is, don't give up on yourself and don't despair of life. β
"I see." An Rui nodded tearfully, her heart warm.
Since I was a child, except for the second uncle, no one has ever cared so much about myself. In this life, she has two people to be grateful for all her life, one is the second uncle, and the other is her cousin Dongfang Huajin.
Seeing that she could listen to it, Dongfang Huajin couldn't help but say a few more words: "Be kind to yourself, be strong, and be confident." Born as a woman, she was originally suffered by men, if you even look down on yourself, then how sad will this life be? Try to be yourself, try to live with dignity, and strive to learn one or two skills that are enough to make a living. In addition, don't take men too seriously, and don't regard men as irreplaceable heaven and earth. That way, no matter what happens, you won't feel like the sky is falling! β
He also gave her a number of examples, all of which were about women's self-reliance, all of which were real-life, living examples, very convincing and infectious.
When An Rui heard this, she had a feeling of being drunk.
Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years!
My cousin opened a window to her soul and opened her eyes to a whole new world.
It turns out that women can live like this and live with dignity.
The thoughts that her mother and grandmother instilled in her in the past are a little strange when you think about it now. That is clear, it is to let women cocoon themselves and be trampled by men willingly.
Fortunately, I came to ask my cousin for help. Otherwise, in this life, she will be firmly trapped by the so-called three obedience and four virtues. was betrayed, humiliated, and oppressed, she still had to kowtow to others to thank her, and she had to constantly reflect on herself.
Dongfang Huajin asked again: "What conditions are you going to find a man?" β
An Rui: "I don't pick, as long as I have a good heart, good health, people are down-to-earth and willing to work, and there are no particularly difficult people at home, that's fine." Don't have a mother-in-law like my mother-in-law, in that case, you won't be able to live a comfortable life! β
Dongfang Huajin nodded: "This is okay, you think well." The young master of the merchant family is not particularly rich, and his family background is quite solid. Or, the young master of the landlord's family. They have all read books for a few years, are in good health, and have good character. Which one do you choose? β
An Rui couldn't help but be a little stunned: "Cousin, can't you have another choice?" β
Oriental Painting Brocade patiently explained: "I think these two options are better!" Poor students, you can be admitted to the Jinshi, or the Praetorian Guard, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, if someone marries you, eight or nine times out of ten will be affected, and you can't even keep your job, let alone a bright future! β
"What? Why is that? An Rui's eyes widened.
Dongfang Huajin shook his head: "You, why didn't you even realize this?" What do you think about on a daily basis? Your father has now taken refuge in Concubine Xian, and the second prince has taken refuge in the concubine, and the father of that concubine is a member of Concubine Xian's faction. Do you understand what I mean by that? Don't say it, nod your head when you understand! β
"Huh? How is that?! An Rui's eyes widened, her face was full of disbelief, and she was stunned for a while, then she looked at Dongfang Huajin with a pale face, and nodded vigorously: "Cousin, I know." I was naΓ―ve, frog at the bottom of the well! β
As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but turn red, but his expression was very firm: "Cousin, just choose the son of the landlord's family!" Don't be too rich, it's good to have a solid family, and it's better to be a little more remote. In the mountains, maybe it's a little better! β
If one day, An's family is raided and exiled, she and her children may be able to get away with it.
Dongfang Huajin nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, don't worry, I will inquire carefully, and choose someone with good character for you, who will never leave you." When you get back, keep your mouth shut and don't tell anyone about our conversation! β
An Rui saluted respectfully: "Thank you, cousin, An Rui will definitely be cautious in her words and deeds, and will never reveal half a sentence to anyone." β
Dongfang Huajin handed over a purse: "Here are five hundred taels of silver, you take it, go buy some embroidery thread or something, and embroider some small and inconspicuous dowry for yourself." When you get married, I will buy a dowry, you don't have to worry! β
An Rui knelt down with a "plop" and nodded tearfully: "Thank you, cousin!" β
was about to kowtow, Dongfang Huajin gave a look, An Yi hurriedly helped the person up: "Miss Cousin, get up, my master is a good one, and he is still willing to help those who have a good personality and personality." β
This is a pun, and there is also a meaning, that is, if the other party is not a good person, then it will not be soft.
