Zhong Lide sighed, glanced at his elderly parents, and remembered that he owed his wife all his life.
Maybe she is protecting her son in the dark, even if there are many mistakes, even if their son does not meet the conditions of the Hua family's son-in-law, in the end, their son still holds the beauty.
For this reason, Zhong Lide is even willing to return to the Zhenguo Mansion, just to be able not to be criticized and to give his beloved wife an environment that will not be picked on.
And Hua Tian is also worthy of the admiration of the people in the house, she is gentle and generous, but she is not rigid. She's smart, wise, but not mean. Her background and her family background made him extremely relieved. He knew that this little lady would be a perfect match for his son.
The old town prince and his wife, who were sitting above, sighed in unison when they saw that their eldest son was in deep thought.
He must have felt that he owed a debt to his wife, since he learned about the little lady of the Ji family, he has fallen into such a state.
But who knew that there would be a hidden secret in such a thing?
The Duchess of Lao Zhenguo looked at Zhong Lide and shouted, "Are you guilty and want to die with you?" ”
Zhong Lide came back to his senses from his memories and looked at his elderly mother, but did not speak.
He thought so, and he didn't even bother to refute it, because he was too tired.
Seeing Zhong Lide's reaction, not only the old town duchess was shocked, but even the old town prince was also shocked.
His eldest son did something wrong, but he himself has not been happy all these years, and he has been cocooning himself. It can be said that the eldest daughter-in-law has been in pain for a lifetime. Their son also suffered for the rest of his life.
As for the person who caused the suffering, they always believed that both were responsible.
Each other is at fault, which leads to the tragedy of their lives, but can he die?
Lao Zhen Guogong couldn't accept that his eldest son died in front of him, and he didn't want the white-headed man to send the black-headed man.
"You owe your wife and make her miserable for the rest of her life. Do you still owe us a debt of suffering for the rest of our lives when we bald-headed people send black-headed men? The Duchess of the Old Town looked at Zhong Liche. He shouted in a deep voice.
Zhong Li Che suddenly came back to his senses. Looking at the old Zhenguo Duchess, her eyes moved slightly, and gradually burst into tears.
His life was too tragic, and it took more than ten years. personally forced his beloved wife to death step by step. And now. He was going to die before his own father and mother. Is it painful for parents?
"I'll live." Zhong Lide said softly.
The old town and the prince looked at their eldest son and saw that although he said that he wanted to live, there was no light in his eyes. seems to be planning to live like this for the rest of his life, and he can't help but feel sour.
The old Duchess took a deep breath, and the old voice was nasal, "Okay, you remember, you will live well." ”
Zhong Lide nodded, thought about it, and looked up at the old town Guogong and his wife, "Father, mother, when the Shi clan was corrected, the Shi clan did not enter the genealogy of our Zhongli clan?" ”
"She's not eligible for genealogy." The Duchess of Lao Zhenguo nodded, looked at the eldest son again, and asked sadly, "Have you forgotten?" ”
Zhong Lide was silent, he had forgotten.
When his wife died, he was mad, half miserable, and generally jealous. This kind of crazy days lasted for a long time, so he couldn't remember whether he would let the Shi family enter the family tree when he was crazy.
"Alas, it was always us who were wrong back then, and even her mother's relatives were completely at odds with us. Even when Thowu returned to the Zhenguo Mansion, they did not soften, but reprimanded Yu Thowu for not liking Liuniang. The Duchess of the Old Town shook her head and said.
Lao Zhenguo said, "We will ignore the affairs of young people." "He was also tired, and he intervened forcefully, which made things worse and worse.
The Duchess of Lao Zhenguo nodded, and then the couple looked at their eldest son, sighed and went out.
Zhong Lide still sat there dumbfounded, not moving.
He wondered, to what extent does a person hate in his heart to smear himself like that on his deathbed?
He couldn't think of an answer, he knew he couldn't handle it.
Hua Tian returned to his room and stretched, "Hey, I don't have to manage those trivial matters anymore, it's really relaxing." ”
"It's good if you don't want to manage it, if you want to manage it, you can manage the General's Mansion regardless of the Guogong Mansion. Do you say, Mrs. General? Zhongli Che said with a smile.
Hua Tian smiled and nodded.
The housekeeping rights were handed over, and Hua Tian naturally didn't want to let his subordinates work in the mansion anymore, so he simply found a few other side jobs and asked Ding Xiang and a few others to go out to help. As for the shops and Zhuangzi in the General's Mansion, she didn't move, and Zhong Liche also had a few maids who waited all year round, so she had to leave some for them.
Ding Xiang and the others were not reluctant to leave the Zhenguo Mansion. In the long run, leaving the Zhenguo Mansion will no longer carry the influence of slavery.
Third Aunt Zhongli was very happy about Hua Tian's acquaintance, and when she saw that Hua Tian asked everyone in her house to leave the Zhenguo Mansion, she pretended to leave a few.
At the beginning, Hua Tian's housekeeper also gave her a position as a steward for her marriage, and for this reason, she also hoped to be able to repay the favor.
However, Hua Tian didn't look down on these stewardship positions, and refused without thinking about it, but proposed to Zhongli's third aunt to let the Shen family and the people in the five houses be the stewards.
Regarding Hua Tian's proposal, Aunt Zhongli selectively ignored it. The people in the fifth room, she picked one out, and as for the one in the Shen family's house, she pretended not to hear it.
The words somehow reached Shen's ears, and when Shen heard that Hua Tian recommended her person to be in charge, Zhongli's third aunt was silent, and her heart exploded.
After Zhongli was the third aunt's housekeeper, he felt that the Shen family's food and clothing were too much, so he cut it down a lot, which made the Shen family even angrier.
She doesn't marry much, and it's impossible to eat expensive supplements, but it's rare that because she's pregnant, the Guogong Mansion has never restricted her. But when the third aunt of Zhongli took office, everything changed, and she was even restricted from eating!
Within a few days, Shen couldn't bear to make a fuss.
She came to Hua Tian to cry and instigated Hua Tian to go with her. How could Hua Tian go, she shook her head. said that Aunt Zhongli was only adjusted in the early stage, and it may be changed in the future.
The Shen family couldn't find an alliance, but they couldn't bear it, so they ran to the old town to cry to the Duchess of Guo, saying that the bird's nest she ate on weekdays was gone, that the Guogong Mansion didn't love her children, and that when Hua Tian was the housekeeper, she never restricted her in this regard.
The old Duchess of Zhenguo was so crying that she had a headache, but when she saw her bulging belly, she couldn't scold her. I had to call the third aunt of Zhongli over to ask about the situation.
The third aunt of Zhongli was right. said that Shen's food was too wasteful before, and even pregnancy was not so expensive.
"How did my sister-in-law never limit it before? Why did the third aunt say that it was wasteful as soon as she came up? Besides, I eat bird's nest and ginseng for the sake of the baby in my belly. Is this also called waste? Shen roared at Zhongli's third aunt.
"When my grandmother was housekeeper. I'm pregnant with Ye'er. It is also to eat whatever you want, which gave birth to Ye'er healthily. Why did the third aunt have to go against her grandmother? Shen continued to roar.
The third aunt of Zhongli was a little embarrassed by the yelling, and she wiped her tears to look at the old Zhenguo Duchess. "Mother, I'm just following the rules. This mansion is not only ours, but there are also several other rooms to look at. ”
The Duchess of Lao Zhenguo was physically and mentally exhausted by their quarrel, and said to Shen, "Okay, why are you crying?" Where is the lack of food for you? You go back first, and if you want something to eat, come to me later and get it." ”
"How can you take grandmother's......" Shen shook his head and said.
Eating Zhonggong, she can't wait for more and more, anyway, only the housekeeper knows. But if you eat the old lady's, the old lady will definitely be bored in her heart if she eats it too many times.
"I said take it." As she spoke, the Duchess of Lao Zhenguo waved her hand to let Shen out.
After the Shen family went out, she looked at Zhongli's third aunt, "Our house is thin, if someone is pregnant, give more things." Shen is a shallow-eyed person, and there are few marriages, if she has nothing to eat, it is my great-grandson who is hungry. In the future, I will give her some here, and you don't have to restrict it too much. ”
Third Aunt Zhongli nodded aggrievedly.
"There is also Liuniang, that child is married, but when she marries into our house, she can't be asked to eat her own dowry, so this bird's nest and ginseng still have to be given." The Duchess of the Old Town said again.
The third aunt of Zhongli was reluctant in her heart, but she didn't dare to rebel. She just came to power, and before the three fires were burned, she was sued by the Shen family to come to the old lady, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
Looking at the appearance of the third daughter-in-law, the old Zhenguo Duchess sighed secretly, it was really not suitable to host the feed. Although the background is not low, it is not as good as Liuniang.
Although Hua Liuniang said that she was born in a second-rate family, her family has long since declined, and it stands to reason that the person who came out is relatively small. Kehua Liuniang looks more like a first-class family than a first-class family.
"Liuniang, you remember to make more friends, our Guogong Mansion itself has no real power, and the children are not conspicuous in their studies, so they will have to rely on the help of the Hua family in the future." Although she was dissatisfied with Zhongli's third aunt, she had to explain these words.
Zhongli's third aunt nodded again and again, "My daughter-in-law knows." ”
But I didn't think so, there are so many powerful people in Beijing, where is the turn of the Hua family? Guogong is a product, where can the Hua family compare?
Seeing the disapproval in the eyes of the third aunt of Zhongli, the sigh in the heart of the old Zhenguo Duchess became heavier. She said seriously, "In short, Liuniang and Shen are double, you should try to supply as much ginseng bird's nest as possible here, don't be lazy." ”
Aunt Zhongli nodded in response.
Seeing this, the old Duchess waved her hand and let her go back.
After that, she went to tease the fat teeth and complained to Hua Tian, "I am so uninformed, after taking over the housekeeper, I didn't even understand the previous one, so I changed it indiscriminately." Teach her, she is not convinced. ”
Hua Tian smiled, "The third aunt must have her own charter in her heart." After saying that, she said no more, and no matter what she said, she was not very pleased.
The Duchess of Lao Zhenguo sneered, "Where is the charter?" It's just that the new official took office with three fires, but he didn't understand anything, and he was burned. After speaking, he shook his head, "It's also a shallow eyelid." ”
Hua Tian smiled, but didn't dare to speak again.
A little earlier, Shen went to the Duchess of Laozhenguo, and also came to complain to her, saying a lot about Zhongli's third aunt, and she didn't say anything.
Anyway, she doesn't have pain here, why do you care about so many idle things?
However, she has nothing to do here, but there are many things to do with the Shen family.
She went to the Duchess of Laozhen every few days to complain, saying that Zhongli's third aunt had deducted things. Sometimes he pretended to faint and said that he didn't eat well. He often nested in his own house, saying that his body was weak and he did not dare to go out for a walk.
She used these methods in an endless stream, and often went to the Duchess of Laozhen, which made Zhongli's third aunt hate her.
As the saying goes, little ghosts are difficult, and Shen is a very difficult little ghost.
The third aunt of Zhongli was originally full of ambition, but because of the Shen family, she lost face and fell a big way.
Third Uncle Zhongli showed such an expression to her, and the concubines of Third Uncle Zhongli all secretly laughed, and as for the maids in the house, they also secretly laughed at her.
In short, Third Aunt Zhongli deeply regretted it, and she finally understood why Hua Tian would ask the Shen family for anything without any restrictions. People like the Shen family should use money to block her, and they shouldn't let her come out to make trouble.
But even if she let Shen give whatever she wanted, Shen still didn't change her will, and it seemed that she was going to carry it with her.
In the end, Zhongli's third aunt swallowed a breath, lowered her face, and came to Hua Tian to ask how to deal with it, how to make the Shen family not make trouble in the future.
Hua Tian said that she didn't know, so she might as well go to Shen and ask.
Third Aunt Zhongli would never ask the Shen family, and said to Hua Tian sincerely, "Her temperament, I said a word to her, and I couldn't help but be angry in my heart, if I saw her, I was afraid that I would quarrel with her." Liuniang, you used to manage the house, and the Shen family has never made trouble, so you can talk to the third aunt. ”
Hua Tian was so enthusiastic in the end that she had to say, "Liuniang really doesn't know, but since the Duchess asked so, I will personally go to the third brother and sister's house to ask her, and let her not embarrass the Duchess in the future." ”
"You stupid boy, I am your third aunt, your name is the third aunt, what is your name as the Duchess of the Kingdom? It's a bit of a disengagement. The third aunt of Zhongli smiled at the corner of her mouth, smiled at her eyebrows, and said insincerely.
Hua Tian smiled, "The third aunt is the Duchess of the Kingdom, so she should be called like this." In our house, it seems that there are rules for calling it like this. ”
"You girl with this mouth, no wonder your mother likes you very much." Zhongli's third aunt smiled with crooked eyebrows.
To say that since she took office, in addition to being unhappy with the Shen family, there is also what everyone calls her - everyone still calls her according to the past titles, and does not call her the Duchess of the country.
Listening to Hua Tian's words, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, no wonder people like it, and everything she said was what people wanted to hear. It's me, I didn't like her before, but I had more contact with her, and after listening to her, I couldn't help but have a good impression of her.
After that, Hua Tian went to Shen's house and told Shen that he could help her get a position as a steward, so that she would not make trouble in the future. Do things in moderation, and if the old lady gets annoyed if she makes too much trouble, she won't get anything.
The Shen family made trouble, but it was just for a steward position, so he agreed immediately. (To be continued......)
