It is said that Chen returned to the Chen family with a pair of daughters, and within a few days, he heard rumors in Beijing that he was making trouble remarrying when her husband's bones were not cold. Many rumors are conclusive, and they seem to be true. Even the Chen family was quite affected. The eldest sister-in-law, Feng, even excused herself from several banquets under the pretext of illness, so as not to listen to the gossip behind people's faces. The uncles and aunts of the Chen family also kept coming to the door to inquire, although they did not have many words, in fact, they secretly complained that the Chen family had a bad reputation, so as to implicate the clansmen.

Seeing this, Chen's anger burned inside. When I got to the house, I couldn't help but complain to my parents: "Everything that is dirty and smelly depends on my head." If the girl in their family is really good, she will not be unable to find her in-law's family because of this. If there is really something unsatisfactory, even if outsiders praise me as a heavenly immortal, they will be able to enter the palace and become a mother? ”

After complaining, I couldn't swallow this breath after all. Chen secretly instructed the servants and maids in the family to scatter some silver money and idle people on the street outside, as well as a number of children, to add fuel and vinegar to how the Zhao family treated the widows and orphans, bullied the big house, sought to seize the family property, and even murdered the family.

In the streets and alleys for a while, after tea and dinner, the people in Beijing took this as a topic of conversation and appreciation.

After only a few days, the reputation of Mrs. Zhao's house has been lost. Let the old lady Zhao and the second uncle of the Zhao family argue with each other, but it is useless. Even a few children of the Zhao family who were still studying in the county school were implicated, and every day they went to school to study, there were always irrelevant people who came to inquire about this private matter. The boys of the Zhao family were hindered by the same lineage, and it was difficult to say anything, so they dealt with it in a hurry, but made others more suspicious.

Seeing that the reputation of the Zhao family is also damaged, Chen's heart is slightly smooth, living at home safely, doing everything he can when he has nothing to do, crying and making trouble with filial piety, not to mention that it is inappropriate for him to return home with his daughter when her husband's bones are not cold, only how to persecute people in the Zhao family, how to harm people have no place to stand, Mrs. Zhao is not kind, and calls her to set rules with a big belly, and the second room is disgusting, in order to seize the wealth of the big house, she even changed her fetal pills, the old lady looks down on her two daughters, and her eccentric eyes can be biased to Nantianmen...... The tossed and turned words of the car and talked about all the bad things about the old sesame seeds and rotten grain. It wasn't until the elders of the Chen family and the other female relatives who came to visit the door that they couldn't say anything else, so they didn't give up.

Because Chen's attitude was in front of everyone, the population spread for a while, and he actually felt pity for Chen's encounter. I only feel that even though the Chen family is biased and criticized, the orphans and widows are coerced by this, and they are forced to leave the Zhao family regardless of their lives.

After all, widows and children are weak, if possible, who doesn't want to rely on them for life, and who wants to be displaced from the fence?

What's more, it is difficult for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to get along with each other, and there are no dirty things in anyone's back house, but most of them are ugly and cannot be publicized. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the Zhao family's various crazy and absurd actions in the mourning hall that day are not unknown to anyone. Even the people of the Zhao clan can't see it and secretly criticize it.

Although the Chen family is a little strong and strong-hearted, he knows that the world loves to pity the poor and the weak, as long as he is in a weak position, he can be pitiful, even if he is reasonable, he can end up with a bad reputation of bullying. What's more, the Zhao family acted unreasonably.

When Chen thought of this, he became more and more calculating, and he wiped his tears from his eyes and tears all day long, and complained whenever he met people.

“…… I didn't think it was right. Just so that I and a pair of daughters can live safely and not be killed by those traitors of the Zhao family, I begged my parents and brother to make decisions for me. But I didn't expect that the tired family would be criticized, if the sisters in the family can't find a good marriage because of me, how can I have the face to meet my relatives. The world is like this, forcing me to make a living, I just hope that my parents, brothers and sisters-in-law can take pity on my loneliness in this life, take care of a pair of daughters on my behalf, and raise them as adults......"

When everyone saw that a weak female streamer of the Chen family was forced to cry endlessly by them, they had already softened their hearts, and they no longer wanted the Chen family's flying domineering that day, and the Chen family oppressed people with power, and only blindly sympathized with the non-human married by the Chen family.

Seeing that the Chen family was humiliated and wanted to seek death and life every time, some righteous people couldn't hold back and spoke up for the Chen family's widowhood. Just said that if it weren't for the fact that the Zhao family was too deceitful, how could the Chen family's daughters go home in the face of the great disapproval of the Rites Sect? It can be seen that half of the people in the world are forced to do things. Although Chen's virtue is at a loss, Zhao is not perfect. After all, it is not uncommon for the husband to die, and it is not uncommon for him to return his wife and return home to remarry, but the persecution of his daughter-in-law and even the act of drugging and harming others for the sake of some family wealth is simply appalling. If it is seriously discussed, I am afraid that the sins of Zhao's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will be even more difficult to forgive.

Overnight, black and white were reversed, and public opinion reversed. was originally accused of being a water-based poplar, but the Chen family, who did not abide by women's morals, became a weak woman who was persecuted by her in-laws and had almost no place to stand. And the Chen family, who relied on power and was domineering, has also become a kind-hearted family who can't bear their daughter's suffering, and would rather not have a reputation than protect their daughter's safety.

Of course, there are also some stereotypes who think that Chan is acting inappropriately. A woman should be obedient to chastity and quietness. Those who do heaven and earth like Chen are pitiful and hateful, and they are not virtuous people after all.

By analogy, the daughters of the Chen family are also like this.

Anyway, after this incident, the Zhao and Chen families lost both. No one was left behind.

But no matter what, the Chen family and their daughters were able to live safely in their parents' home.

No one complained in front of them that the Chen family had acted inappropriately, which affected the girls in the family.

But it was said that this Chen family's eldest brother Chen Qi was standing in the old age. When he was a teenager, he also aspired to study, take the imperial examination, and serve the country. However, since the year of the weak crown, he was lucky enough to win the lift, and he has not won fame several times. By the time he was twenty-six or seventeen years old, he was already tired and lazy, and his ambitions were exhausted, so he entrusted the Yue family to match, and spent half of his family's Thai fortune to donate an official to do it. He is transparent and practical in nature, smart and sleek, and now he has been working hard for three or two years, and he has also made a pen post in the household department. Although he is only an official of the seventh grade of mustard beans, because he is flattering and flattering, he is also quite in the eyes of the peak. Among his colleagues in the township, he is also quite dignified.

Let's say that Chen Qi was on an errand in the yamen on this day, and suddenly heard from his colleagues that the wife of the head of the household department, Lord You's family, was gone, and he chose to hold a funeral to send an obituary the day after tomorrow. The colleagues discussed how to prepare the funeral rites and went to mourn.

Chen Qi listened silently for a long time, knowing in his heart. When he returned home, he asked his wife Feng to prepare a generous gift, a number of funeral ceremonies such as yellow paper candles. That Feng quietly listened to her husband's words, and suddenly sighed: "It's really unforeseen that there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck." Last year, I also went to Lord You's mansion to meet this lady. has a kind temperament and acts softly, and there is really no nobleman's frame. I also said that it was a blessing for Lord You to marry such a wife. Unexpectedly, after only a few months of hard work, this person turned out to be so good. It's a pity that there is still an eleven or twelve-year-old young lady left, and she lost her mother at a young age. I don't know what kind of temperament my stepmother will be in the future, and whether she will be harsh and slow down this big girl. ”

Chen Jue smiled when he heard this, and said indifferently: "You have studied poetry and books, has a unique vision, and is the most virtuous person who abides by etiquette and knows the rules. He has no wife at this time, and he must keep his filial piety for a year. What's more, even if the string is renewed in the future, it is necessary to inquire about the meaning of the first lady's family. Nowadays, the selection of candidates must be delayed for a year or two. The eldest sister of the You family is almost at the age of leaving the cabinet, so she doesn't have much to worry about. ”

When Feng Shi heard this, he also smiled according to Chen Qi's meaning: "What the husband said is true. After all, Lord You is a court official, and he is most concerned about this etiquette and weathering. There is no reason why his wife's body is not cold, so he is in a hurry to continue the string. Baba is waiting for the impeachment of Yushi? ”

After finishing speaking, he stepped forward to untie Chen Qi's wide clothes and change into homely clothes.

Let's say that Chen Qi suddenly heard the words "the bones are not cold", and he couldn't help but think of the girl who made a fuss some time ago. I couldn't help asking: "When I went home today, why didn't I see my little sister, even my two nieces and nephews." But what happened at home? ”

Feng subconsciously pursed his lips and said: "Sister-in-law is such a shrewd and decisive person, she doesn't let others have an accident, who can cause her accident?" It's just that he came up with a moth again, and took his two daughters to worship the Buddha and chant the scriptures in the backyard Buddhist hall. ”

Chen Jue raised his eyebrows and asked with interest: "My sister has never believed in ghosts and gods, why did she suddenly want to worship the Buddha today?" ”

Feng sneered, and couldn't tell whether it was admiration or a headache: "According to the sister-in-law's meaning, first, I pray to the gods and Buddhas to bless the health of my in-laws, bless my husband's grand development, and bless the safety and smoothness of my family." Furthermore...... Although she and the Zhao family do not get along with each other in this life, they are good husband and wife for a hundred days, and for the sake of the past, they also have to eat fasting and chant Buddha for her short-lived husband to keep filial piety for a year. In this way, it is not in vain that the two of them have a good time. ”

After a pause, he added: "Not only that, but after listening to my sister-in-law's intentions, I will visit the nunnery inside and outside Beijing." Kneel three times and pray for the Buddha to burn incense, so as to show her sincerity. ”

Chen Qi immediately understood, shook his head and smiled: "She is inviting a name to play, but it is also for the sake of our Chen family's reputation." I'll just say that my sister is smart and transparent, and she won't cause trouble to the family again. ”

Feng knew that although her sister-in-law was arrogant and cunning, she was loved by her parents and brothers at home. Therefore, after listening to Chen Jue's words, even though he may not agree with it in his heart, he smiled slightly on his face and did not answer.
