Hearing Mrs. Wu's words, everyone in the Chen Mansion was stunned and almost couldn't react. Mr. Wu was even more embarrassed, covering his face with a handkerchief and sobbing.

For a long time, Mrs. Chen sighed and said with a sigh on her face: "No wonder people in the world often say that every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. ”

Chen even sneered and sneered: "This is called conscience for dogs to eat." If it weren't for Mr. Wu's careful teaching, the Zhou family would have the scenery of the day after tomorrow. After inheriting the kindness of the Wu family, their family did not say that they were grateful to the Wu family, but treated the benefactor's daughter so harshly after the death of Mr. Wu, and dared to say such shameless words with dignity. ”

Saying that, Chen pointed at Mr. Wu and said, "You are also a fool." You listen to what they say. It is clear that they did the shameless thing first, are they still afraid of people talking? is willing to do it, but refuses to bear the notoriety, and wants to die. Could it be that when the evildoer dies, the victim becomes the murderer? How can there be such a truth in the world. That is, your husband and wife are so foolish, if you change me, not to mention that he will be turned upside down, it will be difficult for their family to stay in their hometown. Do you want to use this to blackmail some money? The skin did not peel off theirs. ”

Feng Shi was beside him, and he also sighed: "That being said, if you really have such a relative, it will be bad enough." ”

After the words fell, he asked Mr. Wu with great concern: "The matter has come to this, what are your plans now?" ”

Mr. Wu sobbed and whispered, "What can I do as a woman who has no father and no brother?" It's just resignation. What's more, my mother-in-law is also difficult, and it is easy to pull her son up, and now she is gone. She is an old man, lonely, and I can't bear to be embarrassed. Even if he is very dissatisfied in his heart, for the sake of his husband's affection, he can only endure it. ”

When everyone in the Chen Mansion heard this, they were speechless. The second sister of the Zhao family stood aside and looked at it in a new way, only to feel that she had lived two lifetimes, and she had really met the Holy Mother.

It is strange that Mr. Wu is full of peaches and plums, and the Zhou family took Mr. Wu back to his parents' house, and he didn't even give a dowry, and no one complained for Mr. Wu. In the words of later generations, even the plaintiff does not assert his rights, and what is the use of others being indignant?

This is why the people do not raise officials and do not hold them accountable!

On the other hand, Chen listened to Mr. Wu's foolish words, sneered angrily, and sneered: "Mr. is really a virtuous person, with such a compassionate heart. I see, even the imperial court should give you a memorial arch. If not, it's a pity for Mr. ”

After that, he covered his chest and shouted, only saying that his angry liver hurt.

Mrs. Wu and Mr. Wu were full of embarrassment. Mr. Wu said curtly: "I know that my aunt and grandmother hate me for being too soft, and I really can't stand up." I know these too. But people are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless. My mother-in-law is not good in every way, but after all, she has the grace of nurturing her late husband. I had a husband and wife with my late husband, but I couldn't leave a pulse of incense for the Zhou family, so I couldn't afford him. Now that the family has a high hall to take care of, and I can't live and die with him, I don't have any shame in my heart. If my mother-in-law really wants to keep those things outside the body, I won't ask for them. She is now old, and she has no children to support her, so it is good to have more money by her side. ”

When Chen heard Mr. Wu's sincere words, he could only roll his eyes, sneer and snort, and fanned his handkerchief very irritably. I was secretly annoyed in my heart—

I knew that Mr. Wu couldn't think clearly, so he shouldn't have asked his mother and sister-in-law to visit him in the first place, so he invited Mr. If she taught Sister Wan a few of these bullshit fake Taoisms, she would have a headache!

Thinking of this, Chen became more and more uneasy. The eyes like autumn water patrolled over the eldest sister and the second sister, and secretly made up their minds in their hearts.

Needless to say, what the Chen family had in mind. It is only said that Mrs. Chen and Feng listened to Mr. Wu's explanation, but they felt that this female gentleman invited him really well-at least his character and knowledge were very good. Although the head is a little unclear, but as a teacher, it is much better to be able to find fault with people in words and deeds, than those villains who are dignified in front of people and have another face behind their backs.

As for whether such a character will suffer in human relations - it depends on what others say. When you need to hold it, it is a positive textbook, and when you need to be vigilant, it is a negative textbook. The nine sons of the dragon are all different, not to mention the students taught by a gentleman.

However, these are all later words, and the most important thing to solve in front of us is whether the Zhou family will deliberately give birth to right and wrong to practice Mr. Wu because of jealousy and hatred, which will bring the reputation of the Chen family's daughters.

Old Mrs. Chen and Feng glanced at each other, but did not say much. He only instructed the maids who were waiting in the house to turn up the tables and chairs, and arrange the cups and plates. After lunch, Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "After reading a book all morning, I guess everyone is tired after encountering such things today." Let's go back to my room and rest for the time being. ”

When everyone heard this, they had to get up to say goodbye to Chen's mother, and said goodbye to each other again, before they went back to their rooms to rest.

In the evening, when Chen Jue went down, the Feng family untied Chen Jue's wide clothes and changed into homely clothes, and the other wall mentioned to Chen Jue about the daytime, and was worried about how to deal with the Zhou family. Chen Qi couldn't think of a good way to solve this matter for a while. After thinking about it for a while, he frowned unconsciously, and said in disgust: "I knew it was so troublesome, it was better to change a female gentleman at the beginning." There are so many literate gentlemen that it is not necessary to hang themselves in this tree. ”

When Feng Shi heard this, he unconsciously opened his mouth to explain for Mr. Wu: "I think this Mr. Wu is very good. It's just that his fate is not good, and he is just a member of such an in-law's family. What's more, this matter is not her fault in the final analysis. How can we be angry with her because of others? ”

Chen Qi sneered and said, "I'm not the Qingtian master in the yamen, can I still tell them right or wrong?" Besides, it is difficult for Qing officials to cut off family affairs, not to mention that her mother-in-law is such a difficult person. I'm just afraid that she won't be able to stand up on her own, but it will implicate Sister Wan'er's reputation. Our house is messy enough, and I don't bother to pay attention to other people's parents. ”

After that, he insisted that the Chen family quit this Mr. Wu and change to another quiet one.

Feng Shi frowned and was silent. For a long time, he said: "The old lady and Sister Hui like her very much." What's more, she just came to our house to teach, and she didn't make any mistakes, just because of such a thing, she drove someone away, and it was too cold? It's hard for me to explain to my sister-in-law, right? ”

Chen Qi then remembered that this Mr. Wu was recommended by Feng's eldest sister-in-law, Xiaosun. I heard that this Mr. Wu and Feng's eldest sister-in-law still have a good relationship. Since there is such a relationship, it is not good to be silent, so you will drive people away. What's more, he has one more thing now, which is to ask for the head of the eldest brother. Even so, it is even more difficult to sweep the face of the little Sun family for Mr. Wu's affairs.

Chen Qi thought about this, muttered a "trouble" in a low voice, and was just about to say something, when a little girl in the room came to pass dinner. Chen Jue stopped talking, because he said, "Let's go eat first." Mr. Wu's matter, I will talk about it later. ”

Feng agreed, and followed Chen Qi all the way to the room. At that time, it was already the time to hold the lamp, and the upper room was also brightly lit. Because a foreign man returned home in the evening, Mr. Wu and Mrs. Wu only went to the room to defecate and did not come.

As soon as they saw Chen Jue and his wife coming together, in addition to Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen in the main hall, the rest of the people such as Chen, Chen Huan, Chen Wan, the eldest sister and the second sister all stood up. Chen Jue and his wife stepped forward to say hello to their parents first, and then said a few words to their sister Chen, and after receiving the gift of the four children, they sat down separately.

The girls had already set up their meals in the small flower hall on the side of the main hall, and everyone moved over together, and there was no need for Feng to arrange the dishes next to them, everyone sat down, and Mrs. Chen smiled and said to Chen Jue: "You have been going out early and returning late for several days, and it is very hard. I have instructed your daughter-in-law to stew pheasant and ginseng soup in the kitchen, and you should drink two more bowls and rest early. ”

Chen Jue thanked his mother with a smile, and had already soaked in chicken soup, and the food was very sweet.

Because there is no rule of eating and sleeping at the Chen Mansion's dinner table, the Chen family has always been a hidden one. Immediately, he told Mr. Wu all the old things in the daytime. At the end, he sighed: "I don't know what happened to the Zhou family, if I really hide my bad intentions and want to ruin Mr. Wu's reputation, I'm afraid that the three sisters in the family will also be unlucky." ”

Chen Qi frowned in annoyance, only to feel that the originally sweet pheasant cub ginseng soup was also greasy. Before she spoke, she only heard Second Sister Zhao, who had always been silent, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a smile that seemed to be unintentional: "Is Mom very worried?" I think Mr. Wu's family is very lively. It's more exciting than the drama I listened to in the next year. If this were the case with all the dramas outside, I wouldn't be sleepy every time I listen to the plays. And those storytellers, every year there are so many clichés that I almost listen to them calloused to my ears. Where is the liveliness of Mr. Wu's house. ”

An unintentional remark inspired Chen Jue. I saw that he was busy putting down the dishes and chopsticks, patting his knees happily and drawing circles, because he smiled: "Wonderful, why didn't I think of this method." Sure enough, the second sister is smart, and such a tricky response makes you think of it. ”

Second Sister Zhao was suddenly praised by her uncle, and she didn't feel that her face was dazed, and she looked at her blankly. Everyone in the Chen Mansion also felt very inexplicable. Old lady Chen looked overjoyed, praised the eldest son again and again, and said in a deep voice: "Eat well, what are you crazy about." The town behaves like this during the day, and his words are out of the box, and he is not afraid that Huan'er will laugh at you behind his back, disrespecting you as a father. ”

Chen Huan, who was eating with his head bored, was unexpectedly named by his grandfather, and suddenly showed embarrassment.

Chen Jue disagreed, and said with a hippie smile: "Father's words are wrong." If this kid can learn half of my astuteness, he won't have to worry about the future in the future. I'm afraid that he is also a scholar who reads and reads rotten, and he only knows that he is a gentleman, but he looks down on my sophistication. ”

"You're opportunistic!" Old Lady Chen said a mouthful, not wanting to involve too much, but still asked: "You haven't said it yet, what crazy are you just doing!" ”

When Chen Jue saw the question, he smiled and said: "I just listened to what my sister said, I was worried about how to deal with the people of the Zhou family, but the second sister broke through the sky and made me think of a good way, so I couldn't help laughing." ”

After that, without waiting for everyone to ask, he slowly told his calculations.
