Chapter 267
Lin Hai finally returned home, and King Wu happened to be in Wuxi, so he went to visit. Chen Ruiwen, who returned to Suzhou first, has been persuading Lin Hai to stay in Wu; Lin Hai didn't know that he was originally sent by King Wu, so he turned back to his disciples and sighed: "What a scribe, he has become a lobbyist in less than twenty days. The right is a thing, and it is not very guardable. Everyone else knew the details, and hurriedly coaxed a few words of "everyone in the world is vulgar" Yunyun, just to keep him away from this Chen Ruiwen. Lin Hai still sighed for a long time, regretting it.
I didn't want King Wu to come, so I only said that it was the fault of the lonely king that Lord Lin was kidnapped in Wu Guoling, and he didn't ask him to stay without a word, which made Lin Hai a little puzzled. Jia Cong said with a smile: "Chen Ruiwen is his person, he has tested Mr. several times before, isn't it stupid for King Wu to come and touch the nail?" Lin Hai was right when he thought about it, so he just gave up.
King Wu had just left, Jia Cong coaxed the old man to go back to change his clothes, and the door came in and whispered back: "There is a woman outside, saying what kind of embroidery is there, and saying that you ordered her to come and deliver a handkerchief today on the street the day before yesterday." ”
Jia Cong was stunned: "Is there one?" "I asked back. He said, "Have I asked anyone for a veil?" ”
Rise. "Where do I know?" Since the name of the third master is mentioned, it is good to see him. ”
Jia Cong thought to himself, I have a big master here, and I am not afraid that she will check the water meter or send a courier, so I will bring it in.
At one point, the woman came in, dressed in ordinary green cloth clothes, in her twenties, with a round face, an honest appearance, restrained hands and feet, knelt down and said: "The little girl is Zhou Camellia of the Lotus Leaf Embroidery Village, and she came to send a handkerchief to the third master." ”
Jia Congqi said: "What handkerchief? I don't remember a minute. I'll see. ”
That week, Camellia handed over a handkerchief. Jia Cong opened it and looked at it, smiled and said, "I really can't see it." "It turned out that the handkerchief was embroidered with the S.H.I.E.L.D. eagle. Nai looked at her again, then turned his head to look again. pointed, said, "In fact, the fine work should be like Sister Zhou." ”
Rise. He lowered his eyes and said: "There are many kinds of fine work, and I am not the kind of person who is looking for news in the market." ”
Seeing that Camellia Zhou was still kneeling while talking, Jia Cong hurriedly asked her to get up, and asked, "Sister Zhou must have something to do when she comes today." ”
Zhou Camellia said: "Because of the flying pigeon in Beijing, I came to give it to the third master." ”
"Huh?!" Jia Cong was pleasantly surprised, "Can you actually receive the flying pigeon biography in Beijing in Suzhou?" Does Taiwan have one? ”
"Nope." Zhou Camellia said, "Taiwan's mansion is too small, and the pigeon training will not be counted." I got my life this time, and I went to Taiwan with the third master to train pigeons. ”
Jia Cong was overjoyed: "Do you know how to train pigeons?!" ”
Camellia Zhou nodded.
Jia Cong happily circled around the house: "Great, great! Oops, the fifth uncle is so good to me! Hey, Fourth Sister Chen, you see, Sister Zhou is not just a spy! "From. Don't bother to talk to him.
Zhou Camellia was so happy that she forgot the letter, and handed over the letter with a smile. Jia Cong took the letter box and took out the letter to take a look, it turned out to be Jia Huan's book, and guessed Wang Wu's life experience according to the previous letter from Suzhou, and Jia Cong was shocked for a long time before saying: "The earth is really a village!" ”
Wei Han, the son of the Zhaowu general Wei Guang, married Wang first and gave birth to a son, Wei Ruoxing. Six years later, the Li family of the side room gave birth to a son, Wei Ruolan. In another three years, because of the suspicion of the first emperor, Wei Guang died in fear, and Wei Han was "jealous" of the Wang family and supported the Li family. The eldest son, Wei Ruoxing, asked to guard his grandfather's tomb for three years, but was missing.
Wang's father, Jinwu General Wang Shouben, had nothing to do with Prince Yizhong, because of the villain's long tongue framed, implicated in the resignation of the official, fortunately saved his life, and the family returned to his hometown of Changxing County, Jiangsu. When returning home by boat, he was sacked by water bandits in Taihu Lake, and more than 20 people were not survived. Liu Dengxi and Situ Pan did not believe in this matter, and they were unable to be found many times.
Li was originally the daughter of an official eunuch, and her family was convicted of being sold into the Wei family as a maid, and later Wei Han was a housekeeper. A few years later, when the imperial court granted amnesty, his brother was exempted from crime and admitted to the Jinshi Academy, and entered the Hanlin Academy as an official, and Li was promoted to a side room and had a son. Later, Li's brother was promoted to Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and the Wang family was convicted.
After reading it, Jia Cong handed the letter to Qi. point, said: "See?" It turns out that the uncle of the Wei family has married two wives, and the lives of his two wives are completely the model of what I said, 'a woman's life is pinned on her father and brother'! ”
Rise. sighed: "Wei Ruoxuan is obviously Wang Wu." Such a talent...... is the eldest son of the Wei family, but it's a pity. Although Wei Ruolan is also smart and talented, she can't compare to him after all. ”
Jia Cong shook his head and said, "Uncle Wei is incompetent, and he never restrains Wei Ruolan. Wei Ruolan is not afraid of his old man, but she is very afraid of his uncle. If Wei Ruoxin has always been the eldest son of the Wei family, his grandfather left early, and Lao Tzu didn't care about things, he might not be able to work hard to practice literature and martial arts, and he might not have the ability he has today. If Wei Ruolan has always been the concubine of the Wei family, in order to get ahead and have the supervision of her uncle, she will work ten times harder than now. Blessings and misfortunes complement each other, and adversity is fertile ground for growth. ”
Rise. Dianwenyan thought for a moment: "It also makes sense." He smiled again, "No wonder he looks at me for no reason, how similar Chen Ruijin is to the current Mrs. Wei." ”
Jia Cong shrugged his shoulders and said: "If Aunt Wei didn't suffer at home - the fifth uncle only wrote that there was no reason for the suffering, and this difficulty was eighty percent related to him and eighty percent was unreasonable for him - she would also marry a family with the right family in peace, and be a serious wife under the protection of her father and brother." Besides, Wei Ruoxin's mother's abandonment had nothing to do with her at all. It's just ......" Jia Cong frowned.
Wei Ruolan is a character who attracts attention in the original book after all, Jia Cong has intentionally befriended him, and he is really worthy of the words "talented and good-looking". Because I saw that his body and bones were not bad, I was a little surprised. If this person is Shi Xiangyun's husband, why is it so fast that "the clouds disperse in the Tang Dynasty and the water dries up in the Xiangjiang River"? From this point of view, Wei Ruolan was probably harmed by the current Uncle Wei when he was young, shouldn't he be angry with Wei Ruolan and let his mother repay his debts...... If the master doesn't recognize him, it's just that the master has a good relationship with him. After a little thought, he said, "I have to see Wang Wu." Ah, Mr. Wei. ”
Fortunately, King Wu is still in Suzhou, and Mr. Wei is also here with him today. Naturally, he and Jia Cong pretended to meet for the first time, and the two of them acted quite similarly, and they didn't even look at each other. So he sent someone to the pavilion to ask to see Mr. Wei, and asked him to visit the historical sites in Hanshan Temple tomorrow. King Wu was overjoyed, took Mr. Wei's hand and said: "Cong'er has always been invited by others in Beijing, and rarely refused, but he never invites people. Mr. Wei knew this, and only said a few words of humility on his face.
The next day coincided with the autumn rain, which enveloped Gusu like green smoke, which added three points of sorrow to people for no reason. The two came to Hanshan Temple as promised, and each held an umbrella at the gate of the temple to say a few words. After walking around with the monk and donating a few incense money, Jia Cong led Mr. Wei to the top of the bell tower.
The little fat man stood against the railing, and said abruptly: "This is the bell that rang in the middle of the night to the passenger ship." ”
Mr. Wei looked at him and said, "You have something to say." ”
Jia Cong smiled bitterly: "People say that I, Jia Cong, have a three-inch tongue, and today I want to see if this tongue can still be used." ”
Mr. Wei raised an eyebrow.
Jia Cong said: "I know the origin of Mr. Wei. ”
Mr. Wei was stunned. After a while, he said: "Third Master Cong really knows everything. ”
Jia Cong pursed his lips: "Who asked you to say that your surname is Weilai?" He also looks like he knows a lot about things in Beijing. There are not many people surnamed Wei in Beijing. Age, such a strong soldier in your village and the gossip of the Nine Palaces are obviously the sons of Jiangmen, and they are surnamed Wang on Taihu Lake...... It's too easy to guess. And also...... That one...... Look at your face again, it looks a little like Wei Ruolan, especially the eyes and the lower part of the face. ”
Mr. Wei was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile: "I see." ”
Jia Cong said: "Do you want to take revenge on Wei Ruolan?" ”
"If I want to, will you stop me?"
"Yes." Jia Cong said, "Everyone has their own position, he is my friend, obviously not as good as you, I can't watch you fix him." He is not as cunning as Feng Ziying, and if he can't keep it, he will be repaired and hung up by you. ”
Mr. Wei sneered: "I'm afraid that the third master won't be able to stop me." ”
Jia Cong sighed: "So I want to try first to see if I can convince you, after all, he is innocent." ”
Mr. Wei said: "And his mother is not innocent. ”
Jia Cong shrugged his shoulders and said, "You don't think that your mother was killed by her mother." ”
Mr. Wei said: "The third master doesn't know anything, so don't make criticisms." ”
Jia Cong said: "I really don't know what happened in the backyard of the Wei family back then, but I know that Lingtang was abandoned by Wei Ruolan's mother. It's clear that she can't be a wife anymore. ”
Mr. Wei was furious: "Can't be it? Is it temperament, talent, and appearance that can't be a housekeeper director and a filial aunt? ”
"It's my mother's family that can't be it." Jia Cong said, "Temperament, talent, and appearance are all ordinary dowries, it doesn't matter if there is more or less; The housekeeper has a bookkeeper and a housekeeper's daughter-in-law; Filial piety is not the most important thing. It is good to marry two surnames, and it is two surnames that are equivalent to the portal. The fundamental difference between the housewife of a family and the ordinary concubine lies in the father and brother and the mother's family. Lingtang's maiden family is down, whether there is Wei Ruolan's mother or not, she will inevitably go down to the hall and change to a wife whose maiden family is equivalent to the Wei family's door. Your father didn't do anything wrong, it's like this in any other family. Mr. Wei is not young, and there are many rich and noble families around Taihu Lake, so he must have seen many examples. ”
Mr. Wei was dumbfounded, and suddenly leaned on the railing, and burst into tears.
"Ling Zun is not an infatuated lover, just an ordinary young man. Among the men in the world, there are the most affectionate and less amorous, and the infatuated are really rare. You can't insist that all men in the world be infatuated just because you happen to be infatuated, this is quite unreasonable. Expecting a man who is not infatuated to suddenly become infatuated is like expecting a rooster to lay eggs, which can be met but not sought. No one in your family is at fault in this matter, the only one who is at fault is the first emperor. ”
After another half a day, Mr. Wei smiled bitterly: "I can't find an excuse to refute you for a while." ”
Jia Cong turned his head to look at him and said, "Actually, you know what is going on in your own heart. It's just that he doesn't want to hate his biological father, he can only hate Wei Ruolan's mother. ”
After a while, Mr. Wei raised his face, a drizzle fell on his cheeks, and said leisurely: "My grandfather was framed, and he just lost his official position, and he will not cause trouble to the Wei family." ”
Jia Cong shook his head and said, "The Wei family is not afraid of disaster...... It is Ling Tang's mother's family, since it can't add benefits to the Wei family, this main house wife is useless. The usefulness of the wife of the main house is mutually beneficial to her mother's family. She occupies that position but is no longer useful, how different is it from ordinary concubines? Therefore, it is necessary to change to a useful woman who has a maiden family and can benefit the Wei family. It doesn't matter what kind of virtuous and filial piety is, but the latter is more important than the status of the mother's family. Ling Zun is not ruthless, but love and profit can only take one, how many men will choose love? ”
After a while, he said, "You feel uncomfortable with your own house as an analogy, how about using my family as an analogy?" My eldest wife is like no such person in the house, and the concubines who have to be favored can step on her face, and the second sister-in-law Lian is her daughter-in-law on the surface, but she really doesn't take her seriously. My father would marry her because my grandmother was partial and liked my second uncle, and sincerely married him a useless wife to occupy that position. The second wife relied on her brother to call Wang Ziteng, and dominated the internal affairs of the house for many years. She made the most stinky move, which was to coax the old lady to marry her niece into the house. At this time, Wang Ziteng changed from the elder brother of the second wife to the father of the second grandmother of Lian. Otherwise, she has made a big mistake, and our family is not allowed to let her take care of the house at most, where dare she fall into the position she is now? Mr. Wei thinks about it, your mother is the queen of the gate, if she lives like the eldest wife of my family, wouldn't it be more painful? ”
Mr. Wei was silent for a long time and said, "After all, the third master is a person from outside the world. I understand all these truths, but the old hatred is hard to get rid of. My mother died a pitiful death, and she always resented that she was innocently abandoned, and hated the vixen for provoking their husband and wife and dividing our father and son. ”
"Well, that ......," Jia Cong said a little embarrassed, "this is also one of the reasons why I have to take care of this matter." Wei Ruolan's grandfather's family suffered, I am afraid that it was caused by an elder of my family. Otherwise, she is still a daughter, and she will not be able to turn herself into a vixen. It is difficult for a person to retain a conscience in the midst of hardship. ”
Mr. Wei glanced at him: "What do you mean, she is excusable?" ”
Jia Cong shook his head and said, "No, no." I mean, it's normal. Most people in the world will do that when they fall into her situation, and very few maintain a conscience. They won't do that just because we criticize and abuse them, they won't do it. Just like most men in the world will change to a wife in the main house when they meet your father, but there are few people like you who have been married for many years and have no children but do not accept concubines or change wives. He said angrily, "If Zhen Yinglian can meet you, it is also a great disaster and there will be a blessing if you don't die." ”
He turned the topic very well, and Mr. Wei immediately said: "I heard that the third master can send a son?" ”
Jia Cong smiled: "Where do I have that ability?" My brother's son and daughter are all his destiny, but my little Meng'er should have been five months pregnant because the second sister-in-law was too tired to take care of the house, and had a miscarriage. Therefore, I took the housekeeping to my sister back then, and let the second sister-in-law only take care of the health and maintenance, and Meng'er was naturally born. Everything in the world has its cause and effect. When the cause changes, the effect naturally changes. He said, "According to Zhen Yinglian's life, she should have been persecuted by shrews, removed from her mother and child, and died in childbirth." Today's fate has changed, Brother Xue has completely broken his sleeves, and that shrew doesn't know which lustful man who is short of money has married her, Zhen Yinglian is pregnant in the future, you can ask a better doctor to take care of it, it will be fine. ”
He said it too naturally, too smoothly, too honestly. Mr. Wei was convinced, overjoyed, and bowed to the ground: "Thank you for the third master's advice." ”
Jia Cong smiled: "It's not a pointer, just a few words." It's just that you haven't had children for a long time, and I'm afraid there are other reasons. Mr. Wei hurriedly asked why. He said, "You are too busy, and you have to be the owner of the village and a staff member, how much effort can you have to accompany your daughter-in-law?" ”
Mr. Wei blushed: "How old you are, you know this." ”
Jia Cong pouted and said: "I'm not big, but my father is an old man who is not ashamed, I know everything when I am young." My sister was pregnant, so I hired two imperial doctors to take care of her. Halfway through the chat, I chatted with the imperial doctor, and they said that women are most likely to conceive around the 14th day before menstruation, and Mr. Wei might as well try it. This is not what the imperial doctor said, but what he heard from his dead friend when he drank beer and bragged in the middle of the night with his married friend in his last life.
Mr. Wei was stunned: "Isn't it the days after the moon?" ”
"The imperial doctor said that it was the sixteenth to the ninth day before the menstrual event." Jia Cong couldn't help but point at him and smiled, "The day you said was the most difficult to conceive, hahaha, no wonder you don't have a son, hahaha, it's terrible to have no culture, hahaha......"
Mr. Wei's face was flushed, and he scolded: "At a young age, such things are clear, what does it look like!" ”
Jia Cong laughed even more. Originally, there was a gloomy wound around them, which made him smile, and the melancholy was gone. After laughing for a while, Jia Cong patted Mr. Wei's shoulder: "If you are really not angry, change your surname to Wang." Your good son has the surname of his ex-wife, you have to repent of breaking your intestines. ”
Mr. Wei shook his head and said, "My real surname is Wei, why did I change my surname?" ”
Jia Cong sighed: "It's boring." ”
Mr. Wei said: "I want to return my mother's spiritual seat to the Wei family ancestral hall and move the ashes back to the Wei family's ancestral grave. ”
Jia Cong really couldn't understand the strange and useless obsession of the ancients, so he waved his hand and said, "That's it, it's just that you are so stubborn at a young age." If my sister had been treated like this by her in-laws, I would have let her marry another lover a long time ago. Who is rare about their ancestral halls? Is there a big ancestral hall for our family? If you have the ability to re-establish a Taihu Wei family and put your mother's spiritual position in the position of the ancestors, wouldn't it be better than going to the ancestral grave of the Wei family to ask the old lady of the Wei family for peace every day? Don't forget, a woman depends not only on her father and brother, but also on her son. ”
Mr. Wei's eyes lit up: "Third master, good idea!" ”
Jia Cong said: "A good man has ambitions in all directions. Everyone is profitable. When the Wei family in the capital wants to connect with the Taihu Wei family, that's when your mother raises her eyebrows. ”
Mr. Wei slammed his fist on the railing, gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay!" That's when I was happy. Jia Cong cheered from the sidelines. Mr. Wei glanced back at him, and suddenly praised, "No wonder King Wu said that the third master's tongue can calm half the world." Jia Cong grimaced.
He asked again, "Who is Mr. Luo and Mr. Yi who robbed you?" ”
Jia Cong said proudly: "It's amazing, right?" The most remarkable thing is that they have fewer people than you, and they are able to keep them from hurting their peace. The people in your village are only lightly injured, right? I only want to tell you one thing, that military advisor also has a background. ”
Mr. Wei said with a strange face: "How many of you have come down in this wave?" ”
Jia Cong was stunned, and laughed again.
After a while, just when Jia Cong thought he had figured it out, Mr. Wei said again: "Back then...... Not only my mother. I was the eldest son, but suddenly I don't know what has become of me. ”
Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "You are a man, and you are smart, can you still treat you badly?" No matter how confused you are, you won't let a nine-year-old child go to guard his grandfather's grave. Isn't that a curse for himself? If you keep the tomb for three years, your reputation will be prominent, and you will avoid the edge of the new wife. Your son has changed his wife from the general trend of the family, and you are still his son. Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes; But the blood of father and son can never be replaced. And, Mr. Wei, was it your grandfather's idea for you on his deathbed? ”
Mr. Wei was shocked! "He's an old man...... Treat me wonderfully...... Playing small...... Just ......"
Jia Cong looked at him with a broken outlook, and said indifferently: "Your father is mediocre, and I don't think he can come up with this idea." Your mother's wife must be replaced, and the interests of the family are greater than your personal interests. Your grandfather struggled to think of a way to save his grandson as much as possible in his awkward situation. ”
Mr. Wei closed his eyes for a long time, his face was sad and miserable, thinking that Old Man Wei had deceived this eldest grandson back then; Jia Cong just waited honestly on the sidelines. Suddenly, he asked, "If you were in my Father's situation, you would be like him?" ”
Jia Cong said: "I am stronger than your father, and I can stand in the court without borrowing the power of my wife's mother's family, so I will choose to protect my son." Uncle Wei's mediocrity is the original sin. ”
Mr. Wei said: "Protect your son, not your wife." ”
Jia Cong said: "Could it be that your mother is bent on blaming your father for changing her mind......
"More than that. She thought it was Master Li who forced my father to divorce his wife. ”
Jia Cong blinked: "But Lord Li's official position is not as high as your father." Nai patted him on the shoulder and said, "There are more stupid women in the world, and she is like this." ”
Mr. Wei smiled bitterly: "Third Master, is this a relief for me?" ”
"Hmm." Jia Cong nodded seriously.
"That's it. This is a temple. He looked at Yanyu Gusu from afar and said, "Is it good to find a place to drink?" ”
"Okay."
The two left Hanshan Temple and casually went outside to find a tavern to drink. Mr. Wei got drunk and shouted, "My mother won't enter their ancestral hall!" Jia Cong applauded.
