140 Delong Wangshu
Since beating Xu Miaoyi and going home, her sister-in-law has been at odds with her, she is unruly by nature, her sister-in-law prefers to use the means of the inner house to pinch her, Xu Miaoyi is not even convinced by her father, no matter how Chen hints and makes it clear, she can't listen to it, just maintain the surface respect.
For Xu Miaoyi, this is already the extreme of her tolerance, but the Chen family still went her own way, and even ran back to her parents' house, expanding the conflict between her sister-in-law and her sister-in-law to the family conflict. Xu Miaoyi is not afraid of rumors, and asks her family not to take care of her "jade bottle".
Xu Zengshou ignored the small things, and the big things were not confused, and the next day he specially told his father the plan discussed by his three younger sisters and asked if it was appropriate. Xu Da is busy with official business, where can he take care of these family affairs? He hurried to go to the court and said:
"It's common for husband and wife to quarrel, and there are people who scold and fight with each other, is this day over? Your sister-in-law is too squeamish. If you still refuse to go back, then let your sister-in-law stay in her mother's house for a while and then come back, it will be the Double Ninth Festival soon, and the lady will enter the palace to congratulate, and there must be a housewife at home to take care of the sacrificial gifts and other mundane things, and she will naturally come back. ”
Xu Zengshou asked, "Then what if you still refuse to come back during the Double Ninth Festival?" ”
The Chen family and the Chen family are so hypocritical, they have tossed the last patience of the son Xu Huizu, he is cultivated as the heir of the heir, Wen Taowu is proficient in everything, and said: "National affairs are in worship and Rong. Rites are both wasted, how can they be long and the family is the same, our Xu family is the state mansion, sacrifice is very important, the Chen family does not know the general situation, the Chen family does not know the number of etiquette, vain for the scholarly family. ”
The eldest son's words, although Xu Da didn't understand much, but he also quite agreed, the eldest son was a reliable one, waved his hand and said: "You have all grown up, you can do this by yourself, you don't have to ask me everything." ”
When he chose to take over his children with the Chen family, Xu Da took a fancy to the lintel of the Chen family, because he felt that the other party was a scholarly family that had survived since the Northern Song Dynasty, and the family background was sufficient, just for a nouveau riche like himself, his wife Xie died early, and the family lacked a housewife, so it would be convenient to raise children and offspring in the future.
But the Chen family married into the Xu family, and they didn't talk about anything for the time being, and they always targeted their baby daughter Miaoyi. Xu Da has Geng Jie in his heart: My daughter has been missing for ten years, and she has been lost and recovered, I can't feel distressed, you pick thorns every day, isn't this the meaning of disobedience to the elders?
In fact, Chen and Xu Miaoyi have contradictions, and Miaoyi also has mistakes, but in the eyes of parents, no matter what mistakes their daughters make, they are generally good children, which can be forgiven.
If everything is divided into right and wrong, this is a trial in court, not a life.
However, the Chen family made a principled mistake in Xu Miaoyi's marriage, and actually took the sister-in-law's marriage to benefit her mother's family, and befriended the Lu family, and started the idea of the East Palace. Xu Da felt that he didn't know what to say, and he was very disappointed in his daughter-in-law.
So the two brothers Xu Zengshou and Xu Huizu visited the Chen family again with gifts, the Chen family was still hospitable, the old man Chen was slightly drunk, and after a lunch break, Chen personally brought his father a cup of sobering soup.
Chen's move was actually to remind her father that she promised to follow her husband home, and she also knew that her sentence "eldest son" was too harsh, and her husband came to make amends for his sins for two consecutive days, giving enough steps, and going down is the next day, and he will have to live in the future.
Old Man Chen drank half a cup of soup, but did not relieve the hangover, but was a little fluttering, and said with a goatee: "Daughter, don't worry, be patient, this time the cure will be until their Xu family is completely softened." When you go home, you have the majesty of being a housewife. ”
"Hmph, don't look at them now as dukes and wealthy families, the ancestors of the previous generation, no, even Wei Guogong is just a mud-legged peasant, a few days after washing his feet and going ashore, there is still a smell of earth on his body, Wei Guogong sincerely asks to marry, and he is serious about three media and six women, and his father is reluctant to marry you to be with these nouveau riche."
Chen's face turned red, and he said angrily: "Daddy, in fact, Xu Dalang is good to me, my daughter has not been pregnant in the past few years, and he has not mentioned the matter of taking concubines, and I am in charge of major family affairs, and I never doubt each other." Don't say such ugly words as nouveau riche, be careful of being heard-the emperor is also a Fengyang peasant. ”
Old Man Chen squinted his eyes and closed his eyes to recuperate, and said: "Wen is dead, and martial arts are fighting." What's more, the emperor said that he was a farmer in Fengyang, and he also frankly admitted that he had been a monk in order to survive, so it is taboo for us to say it? The nouveau riche don't know the etiquette, they don't pay attention to the rules, a daughter has been missing for ten years, and after going back, they don't care about the rules of raising at home, and they are famous ladies, so they have to come out every day and run away. ”
In the end, it was his sister-in-law, Chen hurriedly spoke up, "Daddy, my sister-in-law is confused about small things, but I understand big things, this year's Lantern Festival city wall turmoil, she is a girl's family, and she has reversed the situation and brought her three younger sisters back. Otherwise, why would the Lu family marry her as a daughter-in-law? The sister-in-law has her own benefits. ”
Old Man Chen said disdainfully: "It's nothing that my daughter's family knows how to do kung fu, if she really starts, can she beat a man?" It's nothing more than a strong guard, a large number of people, she is stupid and bold and doesn't know the depths, she just knows how to rush forward. The girl's family should be chaste and virtuous, and abide by women's morals, but she doesn't listen to you, repeatedly contradicts you, and uses rhetoric to break the relationship between you and your uncle. ”
Chen lowered his head and said, "I quarreled with Da Lang, but it actually has nothing to do with my sister-in-law. ”
Old Man Chen opened his drunken eyes, "How can it have nothing to do with her?" Have you ever quarreled with your uncle in the Xu family before? Have you ever been angry with your sister-in-law? It was only after Xu Miaoyi went home that you had a quarrel with your uncle, not to mention frequent quarrels, and you were sulky, and everything was not going well, all of this should be Xu Miaoyi's cause. ”
What Old Man Chen said was the truth, and Chen sighed: "Daddy, it is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs, in fact, it is not all my sister-in-law's fault. Don't be too arbitrary, my sister-in-law is a girl's family, and sooner or later she will be sent out to get married, I will put up with her for a while, and I don't have to put up with her for the rest of my life. Daddy, why don't you go back with Dalang. ”
With a woman's intuition, Chen felt that something was not quite right with the Xu family's movements, she was calm on the surface, but in fact she was a little restless. In the past few days when she went home, her relatives came to visit the door one after another, and even the elders who were several generations higher were polite to her, and they didn't dare to hold her up.
Only then did the Chen family wake up that she has today's glory and wealth, not because she is the daughter of the Chen family, but the wife of the Xu family. As the saying goes, if you want to be noble in front of others, you have to suffer behind your back. Chen felt that his grievances were not considered to be guilty. Compared with the wealth enjoyed, that bit of resentment will be dispersed.
Old man Chen has been praised by all kinds of flattery in the past few days, looking at the son-in-law of the first rank bowing his head to himself, he was not satisfied, sighed, and said: "The woman is not staying, staying here and staying will become an enemy, wow, I won't delay your wealth, you can go." ”
When Chen heard this, he quickly knelt down and said, "Daddy, that's not what my daughter meant. The Xu and Chen families are in-laws, not enemies, so the stalemate for too long is not good for the reputation of the Chen family. ”
Old Man Chen said: "If the son doesn't teach, the father is guilty." The Xu family came for two days in a row, and the uncle and Xu Zengshou were all the kids, and Wei Guogong didn't have to say anything, what is the reason? I obviously didn't realize the mistake, why did you rush back to your mother-in-law's house. ”
Chen was speechless for a moment, daring to love his father was asking his father-in-law Wei Guogong to come to the door to apologize in person!
Chen's face was embarrassed, and he said: "My father-in-law is busy with official business, and he goes to the court before dawn, and most of the nights are in the barracks, I'm afraid——"
"Gentlemen work together, govern the country, and level the world. How can you not know the truth of what Confucius said? Old Man Chen interrupted: "The house is restless, and the high-ranking officials are just passing by, but they don't know what the trouble is?" The nouveau riche just doesn't know how to be polite, as a family of in-laws, Qingliu Wenchen, we should not be afraid of the powerful, speak out and advise, and teach the Xu family the truth of how to behave in the world. ”
Old Man Chen secretly thought, no matter how busy Wei Guogong is, there should always be time to come to his in-laws' house to drink once, right? The first hero of the founding of the country personally came to apologize, who would not look down on him when he went out in the future?
What a face!
Chen snorted, "This ...... Hard. ”
Old Man Chen came up with a strong wine and waved his hand, "What's so difficult about this?" It's the Double Ninth Festival soon, enter the palace to congratulate, and the family sacrifices need to be handled by you, the clanwoman. If you don't go back, do you want the aunts or ladies at home to do it? This is not in accordance with the rules, don't worry, it is the Xu family who is in a hurry, and they will definitely bow their heads. ”
Chen secretly thought that it made sense, although he was uneasy in his heart, but he was embarrassed to insist on going back to Xu's house.
Chen didn't expect that it was his momentary weakness and foolishness that pushed him into the fire pit.
On the eighth day of the ninth month, the Chen family looked through the autumn water, but they didn't look forward to the figure of the Xu family.
Old Man Chen was also panicked, but he really couldn't pull his son to send his daughter to Xu's house, so the Chen family became the biggest joke in Jinling. Anyway, it has come to this point, and Old Man Chen decided to continue to hold on to the death - the Xu family will never divorce his wife!
On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, the Double Ninth Festival, the women of the fourth grade or above in the capital all entered the palace to congratulate, Queen Ma glanced at the women who knelt down in unison, felt that there was one less person, thought about it, and said: "Why didn't the princess of Wei come here?" ”
Princess Huaiqing, who was already married to Wang Ning, said with a smile: "I heard that Mrs. Shizi is staying in her mother's house, and the phoenix crown and xia veil who entered the palace to congratulate are all in Zhanyuan, and they wear regular clothes to enter the palace, isn't it a loss of honor in front of the palace." ”
Princess Huaiqing has been loved by her father, queen mother and stepmother since she was a child, and the princess who is open-mouthed and can take the initiative to chase the horse looks down on the hypocrisy of the Chen family, not to mention that the Chen family also slanders Xu Miaoyi's reputation behind her back.
Xu Miaoyi is Wang Ning's fellow villager and friend, Wang Ning is my concubine, the Chen family dares to arrange Xu Miaoyi, didn't they take Wang Ning in their eyes.
The ladies present were in the order of the rank faction, and Mrs. Chen, the mother of the Chen family, was the fourth-grade fate, and she had already lined up behind the main hall of Kunning Palace, and she didn't know the conversation between Queen Ma and Queen Ma here.
And most of the ladies of Yipin are noble families like the Xu family, and they have more or less friendship with the Xu family of the Duke of Wei, so no one stands up to speak for the Chen family.
Queen Ma has lived in the deep palace for a long time, where she knows such trivial things, the female official Hu Shanwei next to her whispered a few words, Queen Ma did not frown, and said, "Give a banquet." ”
Queen Ma didn't comment on this, and she didn't even mention the Chen family. The Xu family has a bottom in their hearts, and the family sacrifice of the Double Ninth Festival is organized by the four daughters of the Xu family, as if there is no sister-in-law.
On the Chung Yeung Festival, Chen shed tears over the moon and stayed up all night, and the next day, Mr. Chen personally sent Chen back to Zhan Yuan, feeling that he was sincere enough.
When the old man Chen and his entourage arrived at the gate of Zhan Yuan, the corner door was closed, and the gatekeeper did not open the door as far away as before, and removed the threshold to welcome the carriage into the house.
Old Man Chen had no choice but to get out of the carriage and knock on the door in person, but the porter did not respond for a long time.
Old Man Chen had no choice but to return to the carriage and said to his daughter: "The Xu family may still be angry, let's come back another day." ”
Chen's face was like a withered tree, "No, the Xu family must not want me anymore, and they are thinking about divorce from their wife." ”
Old Man Chen snorted coldly: "You are the one who entered the door with three media and six women, and there is no big fault, how can you say that you will take a break?" The Xu family is a bully, and our Chen family is not easy to bully. ”
Chen staggered out of the carriage, banged on the door and cried: "Da Lang, it's me, I was wrong, you open the door." One night husband and wife hundred days, you can't do this to me. ”
After crying for a quarter of an hour, there was still no news, Chen suddenly despaired, and turned his heart sideways, "I am a member of the Xu family, and I am a ghost of the Xu family when I die!" ”
With that, Chen rushed towards the stone lion at the door, and his head hit the stone lion hard, blood splattered three feet, and he couldn't live! 166 Reading Network
