Chapter 14: Remorse
The two sat in the study for a while.
Fu Zheng looked at Old Lady Fu's firm eyes, and said in his heart that he was afraid that he would be powerless, for so many years, he had become accustomed to the two families as if they were unrelated. He looked at his father and slowed down his voice and persuaded: "When the second brother had an accident, the mother of the third girl accidentally gave birth prematurely and injured her body, so she can't have children anymore, how can I block her again." ”
Old Lady Fu thought that she had already thought of her words and said, "Just because she hurt her body because of this incident, I didn't say anything, neither asked you to take a concubine nor raised any question of heirs." Later, you passed Yun'er and Xiang Yatou to the long house, and I have no opinion, I know what she has done, and I have never doubted her qualifications as the head of the house. ”
"It's just the third girl, after all, your husband and wife owe her, no matter what, she is also the granddaughter of the Fu Mansion's granddaughter, and you don't forget one thing, she has the blood of the Wang family on her body, the same as her mother. Since the eldest daughter-in-law can no longer continue the incense for the Wang family, let the three girls come. ”
"This," Old Lady Fu's words obviously had an impact on Fu Zheng, and it took him a while before he slowly reacted: "Father, how can you have this idea, not to mention what the situation of the Wang family is now after so many years, we don't know, even the three girls are impossible." Although the three girls are married, everyone knows the emperor's intentions, and our family is now trying to save this daughter, I am afraid that it is impossible, and she is already an outcast. ”
In the end, Fu Zheng's voice was already full of exhaustion and helplessness, as a father, he was not so hard-hearted, but as the heir of the family, he must put the family first.
Old lady Fu didn't know what happened to Fu Tianqing in the past, and today was the first time that the eldest son said to him "abandoned the son", shocked, more incomprehensible, he endured the feeling of wanting to teach the eldest son a lesson, and tried to calm down: "What the hell is going on, a good daughter actually said that she would abandon it!" ”
Fu Zheng also regrets it now, if he hadn't been so impulsive at the beginning, he would have cultivated his little daughter well, and now he would have given the family more help.
He briefly described the events of that year: "Because of negligent discipline, the third girl almost pushed Xiang Yatou into the water and drowned, this incident was only known to me, her mother and Xiang Yatou, she dared to do things to mutilate her siblings at a young age, if she was older, she would have paid it back." ”
Old Lady Fu couldn't believe such words, and he asked, "Did you see it with your own eyes?" ”
"Xiang Yatou's side was all present, Xiang Yatou was not very old at that time, it was impossible to buy the girls who were several years older than her or the old women who were dozens of years old, not to mention that the girl lost her parents and didn't have the spare money to take care of. Before that, the three girls' temperament became a little eccentric, and they often did unreasonable and wrong things, and Ah Jie and I were a little afraid of this child at that time. ”
Old Lady Fu said angrily: "So you locked up this kid without asking?" You don't want to have any misunderstanding in this, the child is so young and has no ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and your biggest responsibility as a father is to put the fault on a child. ”
After all these years, Fu Zheng now also feels inappropriate, facing the old man's questioning, his face flashed with remorse, only the mistake has been cast, and he is powerless to undo it.
He said: "The matter has come to this, and it is useless to talk about it now, in fact, Seong is not blessed, this child can be regarded as doing a good thing for the family now, I think it is arranged in the dark." ”
Old Lady Fu didn't slow down because of this incident, and didn't care about what Fu Zheng said later.
Fu Zheng said everything he should have said, and seeing that the old man didn't react, he didn't dare to bother anymore and quietly retreated
The cicadas in the afternoon are very annoying at the moment, obviously there is no figure around, but Fu Zheng feels that the noise in his ears is endless. In fact, he is still afraid that after the old man really raises the three girls, he will be used by this girl to deal with himself and the Fu family, in the end, he is still afraid that the three girls will be cruel, or he is afraid that she will hold a grudge if he does not teach her for so many years. My father is right about one thing, he is not raising his godfather, in the end, he is derelict in his duties.
Fu Tianqing slept a comfortable nap, and when she woke up, she remembered that she had officially stepped out of Fushengzhai from today. She hasn't recognized all the people in the Fu family yet, and she thought that it would not be bad to prepare for marriage so quietly, anyway, the relationship between Fu Tianqing and the Fu family is like this, and now she just wants to wait quietly for the opportunity.
went to the Han Mansion, which made her feel that maybe she had the opportunity to return to the palace again to meet those familiar faces, and she remembered that the little general Han had a very special place in Qi Ming's heart. Such a person Qi Ming is reluctant to give up, but he will always guard against it, this is probably the nature of the emperor, there is no one who can be trusted.
The light reflected in the screen window had become soft and low, and Fu Tianqing looked at it for a while and then asked someone to stand up. Zi Dip and Zi Shu came in with a bath basin, and the other was about to clean her face with a clean cloth soaked in water.
These two girls also learned to serve their masters like this when they entered Fushengzhai, Fu Tianqing is pleasant to her subordinates on weekdays, but she is not ambiguous at all. When she was serving, her rules were meticulous. Zi Shu and Zi Shu look smart and gentle, and they are also very good at serving people.
After the two served Fu Tianqing, Zihuan came in at some point, and was already sorting out his master's clothes and combing his hair. Fu Tianqing looked in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction, and a few people cleaned up.
A few girls came out of the hall and saw Li's mother sitting under the porch and beckoning them over.
Li's mother asked, "How is Miss's face, can you sleep well?" ”
Zihuan said: "I have slept very well in the past few days, and I haven't been shocked to sleep for half an hour at noon, it seems that Mama Liu's medicinal diet is very effective." ”
Mother Li nodded, and said to the other two: "It's hard for the two of you, you just came here and have to serve the master day and night, our young lady's rules are a little exquisite, you just think you are learning things." "Since Fu Tianqing woke up, the requirements for her subordinates have become detailed and cumbersome, as if she has suddenly become a noble daughter, although Mother Li is strange, she doesn't think it's a bad thing and lets her go.
Zi Yu and Zi Shu didn't know that this was a habit that the master had only developed recently, but the young lady was so particular about it since she was a child, not only them, but other newcomers to Fushengzhai also thought so, because everyone didn't think there was anything wrong.
It's just that whether it is the people of Fushengzhai or the Fu family, they have not realized that some of Fu Tianqing's small habits are not what ordinary people should have.
