Chapter 341: Clan Rules

Chen Wenhui understood, this is the mother-in-law's resentment towards her son, and only the Li family's clan land can get such spices, after all, it is the highest plateau in the world, there are a large number of primitive deep forests, grasslands, plateaus, and snow-capped mountains, so there are many rare plants, in addition, there are sometimes trade with India, and India has a lot of rare spices. But why does this Li family have to harm his daughter-in-law at this time? This is not the mother's first child, right?

Chen Wenhui raised his own questions, Chen Wenjun said: "Sister, what you said is very right, we also have doubts, if you say, grandmother is jealous of our father, then she used to have too many opportunities to kill her father when her father was young, why didn't she start at that time, but only when my father was married?" If you don't want your father to have children? Then why did your second brother and I be so good when we were born and didn't do anything to us? If there is a conflict between the mother and her mother-in-law, this is even more impossible, because the father is a concubine, the mother used to be very angry in the house, and she was even more obedient to her grandmother, plus the mother is very popular in the social circle in the capital, so the grandmother often praises the mother, and the eldest aunt is disgusted by the grandmother. So, the father and mother were puzzled. First, this kind of miracle medicine, without the consent of the grandmother, the second aunt will never be able to get it from the Li family, and second, although the second aunt is in charge of the housework in the house, but it is still the hands left by the grandmother. ”

Chen Wenhui nodded, inside a big mansion, there are a lot of people under the maids, and there are people everywhere they go, if you want to avoid everyone's eyes and ears to do these things, it is basically impossible, there is only one possibility, that is, when the family personally does it, these people can be ordered. However, there is still a risk in doing so, to say that the lady of the main room is trying to compete for favor and attack the concubine. It's still possible, but there are really not many people who do this to the concubine and daughter-in-law.

Chen Wenjun continued: "Later, my father found out what was going on after many investigations. Originally, my grandmother never took our father to heart. She herself gave birth to two sons, three daughters, the eldest daughter is still a royal concubine, it can be said that it is deeply rooted, and her grandfather also had many concubines, including our grandmother and aunt. None of them are grandmothers' opponents, no one can threaten her, even so she didn't let her grandfather have other children born, and grandfather didn't know that she did it skillfully. Second, she gave birth to a lot of children, and it doesn't matter if those children have or not. Later, when she was older, our father was born, and originally, my father might not have survived when he was born. But our grandmother and aunt died after giving birth to our father, so that she could tolerate our father's survival. Later, her father was always obedient to her, and she was happy to use him to show her virtue. Later, our mother got married, although she came from a big family, the Bai family. But she is a concubine, so there is no threat to her, and our mother can be a man, so she is still very pleased. Therefore, there is no problem for me and my second brother to be born one after another. But when Mother conceives you, it's different. Because the uncle's family has a group of wives and concubines, but the eldest aunt has only one son and one daughter born, although there are several concubines and concubines, but those are not in her eyes, which means that there is only one Chen Wenqi for her grandson. But she didn't care, because she always hated the eldest uncle, so she didn't pay attention to the affairs of the uncle's family. Her favorite is her youngest son, our second uncle. The second uncle married the daughter of their Li family, and she was born, so she was even more favored, and even handed over the housekeeping power to the eldest daughter-in-law, but to the second uncle. However, she waited for many years, and the second aunt never gave birth to a son, only one daughter, Chen Wenjin, and at this time, our family already had two boys, and my mother was pregnant with a third, and the doctor also said that it was a boy. ”

Now Chen Wenhui understood, it turned out that this was the case, grandmother Li had many sons herself, so she didn't care about the existence of her son, but when it came to the grandson's generation, there was only one, of course she was in a hurry. I can't complain about my mother.

Chen Wenjun continued: "Because of this incident, my father and mother hated my grandmother Li and the second uncle, and you were not in good health at that time, every time we rescued you, we hated them a little more, father, mother, we all vowed to take revenge." Therefore, my father did everything possible to seek to come to Jiangnan for development, just so that he could leave the Li family, get the opportunity for development, and take revenge in the future. ”

Wen Hui was very moved when she heard this, and said: "So, father, mother are working so hard to develop our own power, just to return to the capital one day to take revenge, right?" Is it true that my father sought the position of the elder of the clan in order to get the support of the clan when he took revenge in the future? The eldest brother is planning to make a contribution to the clan land now, and it will be good to trade with the people in the clan land in the future, right? ”

Chen Wenjun smiled and touched his sister's head and said, "It was like this at the beginning, and it hasn't changed now, but there are some more things." Because, your body is unexpectedly better, we were originally going to avenge you and your mother, you are already well, of course, this revenge must be avenged, after all, you were tortured by illness before the age of six, we all saw it, how can we not help you avenge this revenge? However, we are not all about revenge now, we want to keep our happy life now. Take your destiny into your own hands and no longer be controlled by others. ”

Chen Wenhui asked strangely: "Are we now controlled by others?" ”

Chen Wenjun said: "Of course I am controlled by others now, but you can't see it yet." Don't we have to give New Year's gifts to our grandfathers and grandmothers in the capital every year? In fact, this is nothing, just a little money, the key, this point can be seen that we are the descendants of the Chen family in the capital, and we must have filial piety. Now that my grandfather is alive, it's nothing, if my grandfather is not there in the future, my grandmother is our eldest elder, and when the time comes, my grandmother is very likely to call our father to resign and go back to worship her, then we have nothing to say, our family property, business, will be taken away by her, that's it, she can torture us at any time, we have no power to fight back, after all, filial piety is greater than heaven, the mother told her son to die, and the son must obey. ”

Chen Wenhui only then thought that this era is to rule the world with filial piety, and the current emperor hates his mother very much, but he can only use the queen Wang to restrain his mother, and he doesn't dare to do anything? Emperors are like this, not to mention her father's assassination? Thinking of this, Chen Wenhui deeply felt that there was no sense of security at all in this society, ethics and morality, and imperial power were restricting everyone in this society, even if there was a family fortune, once it violated the clan, violated filial piety, and offended the imperial power, it would all disappear immediately. Thinking of this, Chen Wenhui deeply misses the enlightened society in his previous life, although there is also the phenomenon of fighting for fathers, and there are also privileged classes, but it is much better than here.

Chen Wenhui said: "I understand, therefore, we must work hard to develop our forces, so that when the day comes, we will not be without the strength to fight back." ”

Chen Wenjun smiled mysteriously and said: "Sister, you are a girl, you don't understand, in fact, it's not that there is no way to make grandmothers." ”

Chen Wenhui was shocked and asked, "Is there a way?" What's the idea? Isn't filial piety greater than heaven? ”

Chen Wenjun said: "Because our grandmother is not a blood grandmother, but just a grandmother, the affairs between her and us are still managed by the clan. Where are the clans? In the clan land. But the elders and patriarchs have the final say. If we are in this situation, father, your second brother and I have made enough contributions, helped many clansmen, and pulled many people's hearts, we can open a clan assembly and divide our one into a branch. In fact, our father has now been separated. I thought he was already an elder, but he just got rid of the identity of the concubine, and we just got rid of the identity of the concubine's children. It was not separated from his grandfather's family by blood. Therefore, in the future, grandmother can still restrain us. So, we're preparing with both hands right now. On the one hand, we will develop our own forces, and once that day comes, we will not be without the power to backhand. On the other hand, we tried to get the consent of the clan to completely separate our family, get rid of the blood relationship with our grandfather's family, and truly become a family of our own. ”

Chen Wenhui's eyes widened and said, "Really? Can blood ties still be shaken off? ”

Chen Wenjun said: "Our patriarchal law is like this, if we want our father to make meritorious contributions to the clan land, you can become an elder according to the merit, and after becoming an elder, you can't be a concubine, and you will become a branch." But we are still a branch under our grandfather. This is still subject to others. If our merits are greater, and the clan will open a separate branch for us, then our father is the patriarch of our branch, and he is no longer under my grandfather, then our relationship with the uncle is the same as the relationship between those father's cousins in the clan, isn't that not controlled by others? When we are not controlled by others, we will have come to take revenge. ’

Chen Wenhui was very happy, it was really an endless road, and there was such a good way, this is different from reading the history books in his previous life, so he asked: "Who prescribed such a good method?" It's simply tailor-made for our family. ”

Chen Wenjun smiled mysteriously: "Emperor Guanglie." ”

Wen Hui's life gradually intersected more and more with the invisible person
