Chapter 20: Offense
Chapter 20 Disposition
"Brother Yu actually did such a thing?" Zhang Lingxi poured tea for Yang Minyan, and when he heard this, his hand shook, and the water spilled on the table. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Fortunately, she broke Ze'er away, otherwise Ze'er would have seen her pretending to be stupid with Yang Minyan here, I don't know how embarrassing it would be.
Yang Minyan hurriedly cleaned up with her, and said, "Where is Brother Yu'er, you can't think of it, it's Brother Zhe'er!" ”
"Brother Zhejiang?" Zhang Lingxi asked in surprise. "Didn't he live with Aunt Fan on the grange?"
At the mention of this, Yang Minyan's tears fell, and he said, "There are some things that I shouldn't say to you when you are young." The mother-in-law asked her subordinates to search out a lot of letters from the two of them in Jiarou's house, I am afraid that it has been some years. I don't know how Jiarou was coaxed by him, Jiarou is the most well-behaved. ”
"Don't worry, speak slowly. Drink some water. Zhang Lingxi made a gesture of listening.
When it comes to water, Yang Min suddenly remembered that Zhang Lingzhe once jumped into the lake and saved Zhao Jiarou. She sighed and sighed: "It's really a bad fate, I forgot about this one in a daze." The mother-in-law didn't remember either. No wonder your brother eloped with Jiarou, he saved Jiarou back then, maybe it was like this, so Jiarou repaid the idea of making a personal promise. ”
If it was really because of this, then Yang Minyan felt that this matter was no longer a great shame. With Zhao Jiarou's temperament, he must be bent on repaying his kindness, so he exchanged letters with Zhang Lingzhe frequently, and the two secretly fell in love. If my mother-in-law is willing to fulfill it, this is a good story.
It's a pity, it's a pity, my mother-in-law wanted Jiarou to marry that sick old man, so the two of them embarked on the road of elopement.
Zhang Lingxi also "suddenly realized" and said: "So that's the case." I also thought that Jiarou was steady and obedient, and it was impossible to do anything out of the ordinary. And my brother-in-law, who had saved my life, was a good man, and should not have done such a humiliating thing. It turns out that there is such a fate entanglement between the two, and it is really a matter of rushing people to get there step by step. ”
This sentence touched Yang Minyan's heart, she wiped away her tears and said, "When I wait to go back, I will definitely tell the master." ”
Zhang Lingxi comforted her a few words and asked, "This is a big deal, does my father know about it?" ”
Now the attitude of the Zhang family, especially the attitude of the father, is very important.
Yang Minyan said: "My mother-in-law is an anxious person, as soon as she heard that Jiarou ran away with your brother-in-law, she immediately went to ask your grandmother, and your father will know when she comes." ”
Hearing Yang Minyan's meaning, his father knew about it, but he didn't care about it.
At the beginning, Aunt Fan was driven to Zhuangzi to "recuperate", if Zhang Lingzhe hadn't gone with her, Aunt Fan was afraid that she would not be able to wait until today, when Brother Zhe'er eloped with others.
Zhang Lingzhe saved Aunt Fan's life, but he was not treated by Zhang Yanyuan.
Zhang Yanyuan learned that Zhang Lingzhe had taken his old path, but he just sneered twice and did not intervene. But he went to the Liang family, who was in charge of the house, and asked her to halve the chewing of Aunt Fan's Zhuangzi for a year. The people on Zhuangzi have been dragged down by Aunt Fan, who can still give Aunt Fan a good face.
Qi's death tormented Zhang Yanyuan, and Zhang Yanyuan turned his anger on Aunt Fan.
Aunt Fan had already died of this heart to Zhang Yanyuan, and she stayed in Zhuangzi honestly, hoping that the Zhang family could treat her Brother Yu and Sister Qing better.
Brother Zhe'er here, she went to beg her brother Fan Yunlan, maybe she could find an errand to do in the capital.
It's a pity that her brother Zhe'er is such a promising child, and he is buried here for her.
The attitude of the people in Zhuangzi towards her suddenly changed, she didn't know what was going on, she just hoped that Brother Zhe'er would come back early and tell her what was going on outside. She was still doing business with his fourth uncle when Brother Zhe'er was outside, but she didn't know that Brother Zhe'er eloped with Zhao Jiarou.
Zhang Lingzhe had his own plans, and his fourth uncle had taken him to the Far North once, and he used it as a place for him and Zhao Jiarou to stay. At the beginning, he kept a hand, hid some goods there, and the silver taels on his body, which was enough for him to start a business. waited for a foothold there, and the Zhang family's supervision of Aunt Fan was not so strict, so he went to pick up Aunt Fan secretly. The family of three all changed their names and died in the far north.
Thanks to the guidance given to him by Zhang Lingxi, he smoothly took Zhao Jiarou all the way.
Aunt Fan was looking forward to it day and night in the grange, but she couldn't expect Zhang Lingzhe to come back, so she gritted her teeth and bribed the mother-in-law who was guarding her with a tael of silver, in exchange for the news of Zhang Lingzhe's elopement. Aunt Fan was so angry that she almost died on Zhuangzi.
As for Aunt Yang, because of her beauty, after being driven to the Grange, she was taken by a local squire and bought back as a concubine. I heard that she was not as sharp as she was back then, but fought the squire's aunts and wives vigorously, and became the most favored one. Who let her take advantage of her father's power, and others did not?
Zhang Yanyuan is a hands-off shopkeeper who doesn't care about anything, but Lao An people must have an attitude on behalf of the Zhang family.
The old lady of the Zhao family was not as polite as Yang Minyan said, she came to the Zhang family to ask Lao An for an idea. She went straight to the house and didn't give Lao Anren any face.
Lao Anren looked at the old lady of the Zhao family arrogantly coming to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, and he was very disdainful in his heart. Isn't it that her son has entered Hanlin, and the old lady of the Zhao family feels that her mother's family no longer needs to rely on the Ji family in Baoding Mansion, so she has changed her face.
I thought so in my heart, but I couldn't really snub others, after all, it was Brother Zhe who did something wrong first.
The top priority is to understand the situation, the old lady of the Zhao family can only believe in three points, and the rest has to be inquired clearly.
This took half a day, causing the old lady of the Zhao family to complain frequently.
After Lao An understood the whole story clearly, he looked down on the old lady of the Zhao family even more.
It turned out that Brother Zhe belonged to Jiarou, and asked his uncle to help invite a matchmaker to go to the Zhao family to propose marriage, but was driven out by the old lady of the Zhao family. The old lady of the Zhao family intends to tell Jiarou that she is a rich and noble family, where can she look at Brother Zhejiang.
said that he was close to the Zhao family, and he was a person who was half of his body in the ground, and he gave a lot of dowry gifts. Jiarou married in the past, but she is not the old lady of the Zhao family!
Hmph, it's not that Brother Zhe'er is a concubine, and he lives in the Grange with his aunt, I'm afraid that he won't be able to share the Zhang family's property by then. This old lady of the Zhao family is really short-sighted, she doesn't think about Brother Zhejiang's loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, she reads sage books, and walks on the road of Kangzhuang.
Brother Zhe'er is smarter than his father, and he thinks that he has thought it through to take this step. Lao Anren now has no intention of blaming Brother Zhe'er, but thinks that he has done this beautifully.
Lao An people are old, and they always love a little happy event around them, although this thing is reckless, but it is not impossible to become a happy event. So Lao An said: "If we find the two of them, our Zhang family will definitely invite a matchmaker to come over, and ask to marry Sister Rou in a thoughtful manner, and we will definitely not let her suffer a little grievance." ”
If the old lady of the Zhao family agreed, it would be great.
Who knew that the old lady of the Zhao family's face changed, and said: "What the old sister said is ridiculous, how can I marry Jiarou to that thief." Even if she eats fasting and recites Buddha in the future, she will take refuge in the Pure Land of Buddhism, and she will not let the thief get cheap casually. It turned out to be a stubborn rejection of Lao Anren's words.
Lao Anren didn't expect the old lady of the Zhao family to give no face at all, so she could only say that she couldn't sleep well at night and had a headache, so she let Aster send off the guests.
The old lady of the Zhao family slipped out in a gray manner, and she was not angry, if it wasn't for Zhao Jiarou causing trouble, how could she come over to see people's faces.
Waiting to find someone, I will never spare her!
Jiashan has already asked someone to check, and I think that the two who don't even have a coil and a road guide will either be found in a few days, or they will starve to death and feed wild dogs on the side of the road.
Mrs. Ji went back home, and looked at Aunt Xue really annoyed, so she let her subordinates slap her ten mouths.
Waiting for Aunt Xue to finish tossing, the Ji family was also tired. Looking around the four walls of the house, I felt extremely cold. The daughter-in-law is not serving by his side, and the grandson is not laughing at his knees, which is quite desolate.
So the Ji family immediately made a decision and left a door-guarding mother-in-law at home. Another mother-in-law, a little maid, followed her to the capital.
She has to live in the capital for a while and enjoy the service of her daughter-in-law.
The little maid found a letter writer from the street, and according to what Mrs. Ji said, she wrote a letter and sent it to the master through the post station.
The mother-in-law settled down at home according to Mrs. Ji's instructions, rented a carriage and packed her luggage.
A few days later, waiting for Zhao Jiashan's reply, Mrs. Ji took her maid and mother-in-law to the capital to join her son and daughter-in-law.
Yang Minyan didn't ask anything from Zhang Lingxi, returned home with a heavy heart, and told Zhao Jiashan about the matter.
"I think although Sister Xi is smart, she may not see that Jiarou has something to hide from her. You think, since Jiarou has the intention to go to Sister Xi, she must have come up with a perfect excuse to fool Sister Xi. Yang Minyan said.
Zhao Jiashan said cautiously: "Not really, what if Jiarou didn't hide anything from her, and said that Sister Xi came to help her?" Zhao Jiashan's mind was the elf and cute little girl he saw when Qi Xianzun got married.
If she can't see anything, wouldn't Jiarou hide it too well? But Jiarou is obviously not a liar!
"This is not a trivial matter, how can Jiarou say that Sister Xi'er will help her. What's more, how old is Sister Xi? What can you do to help her? At most, it was taken in for a few days. Yang Minyan felt that Zhao Jiashan was too much of a soldier.
"Although Jiarou can't do it, what if Zhang Lingzhe persuaded it? I heard that he saved Sister Xi'er's life, it is difficult to guarantee that Sister Xi will not be grateful to him, if so, it is reasonable to help him, right? Zhao Jiashan inquired about the people and things around Zhao Jiarou and Zhang Lingzhe in just two days.
Yang Minyan sighed deeply and said, "When the master mentions this, I have to say another thing." Brother Zhe'er not only saved Sister Xi'er's life, but also Jiarou's life. ”
Zhao Jiashan said with a stiff expression when he heard this: "So what? saved Jiarou's life, can you kidnap her regardless of Jiarou's future? ”
"Master, that's not what the concubine meant. The concubine body thought, no matter what, they must be able to find them, they have no road guides, no silver, where can they run? I just hope that after the master finds them, he can remember that Brother Zhe'er once saved Jiarou's life, and don't kill them all. Yang Minyan said that he would persuade Zhao Jiashan, and he did.
If you change someone else, I'm afraid you won't say these things to please Zhao Jiashan. Anyway, it's none of her business, she just watched the fire from the other side and hung it high, so why bother with this mouth. But Yang Minyan couldn't help but persuade.
Zhao Jiarou said helplessly: "The benevolence of a woman! ”
That being said, the expression was clearly yes. Yang Minyan said gratefully: "Thank you, master, Master Xie can condone the kindness of this woman." ”
"I know you have a good heart."
"The master is the most bodhisattva-hearted person, but this happened to your favorite sister, and you were blindfolded for a while. You think, although Jia Liangge is weak, she is not stupid, at least she can recognize people. She is the most filial child, for the sake of her mother, she has not been married for so many years. Why did you suddenly run away with Zhang Lingzhe, have you ever thought about it? Yang Minyan persuaded softly.
"What the concubine can think of, the master can naturally think of. However, the master is in the position of a brother, and the concubine is in the position of Jiarou's sister. Facing an affectionate benefactor, Jiarou must want to repay the favor. And Zhang Lingzhe also made efforts to go to our house to propose relatives. It's a pity that his mother didn't think well of him and didn't agree to this family business. The two of them had no choice but to take this step. ”
Zhao Jiashan nodded.
"Mother naturally has her point. Jiarou's sister is so much older than Zhang Lingzhe, and women are the most easy to be old, and her mother is worried that when Jiarou's appearance is no longer beautiful, she will lose her favor with Zhang Lingzhe. And the person whose mother showed Jiarou's sister is older and considerate, and she has no such worries at all. So I can't blame my mother for being inconsiderate. Mother thought the most thoughtfully, but Jiarou's sister didn't tell her mother what she meant. ”
Yang Minyan said a few words, and pushed the responsibility of her mother-in-law away.
Zhao Jiashan looked at his mother, and naturally agreed with Yang Minyan's words.
Yang Minyan spent so much time on her lips and tongue, and finally made Zhao Jiashan no longer so anxious. He hugged Yang Minyan and said, "You are really the most caring person in the world." ”
Yang Minyan was buried in Zhao Jiashan's arms, contented.
Taking advantage of the darkness of the night and the silence of all the people, Emei lit the candle in Zhang Lingxi's room and took out the letter hidden in his arms.
Zhang Lingxi hasn't slept yet, and has been waiting.
She opened the letter and burned the letter by placing it on top of the candle flame.
Zhang Lingzhe said that he and Zhao Jiarou had a smooth journey, and in order to take care of Zhao Jiarou, the two of them did not go fast. When I went out of the city, I appeared at several city gates at different times, and if I checked it, it was easy to be confused.
So he asked Zhang Lingxi not to worry about them anymore.
Zhang Lingxi's hanging heart was put down, hoping that Zhang Lingzhe could make a name for himself in the extreme north as he said and come back. I hope that Zhao Jiarou can be happy in this life, and she will have no worries about food and clothing. (To be continued.) )
