Chapter 214 Unwilling

The next person said that the uncle was here, and Chen Qiniang held up her big belly and went out with Jing's family.

Chen Qiniang's eyebrows couldn't hide the excitement, and she was in a bit of a hurry, and Jing also quickened her pace.

Ling Qingyun was still in the house and didn't get up.

She poured a cup of tea slowly, folded her eyelashes lightly, didn't look at Mrs. Chen's mother and daughter, and used the lid of the cup to pluck the floating leaves in the bowl, filling the room with the fragrance of tea.

Mrs. Chen San and her daughter sat uneasy, their faces were not good-looking, and they seemed to want to escape, but they felt that it was inappropriate, so they could only wait.

Especially Thirteen Niang, biting her lip from time to time, her small face was full of anxiety.

Ling Qingyun's eyes were soft and soft, slowly flowing past them, and she was quiet again, drinking her tea.

"Mother, let's" Chen Sanniang finally couldn't help it and spoke anxiously.

Mrs. Chen San glared at her and motioned for her to sit back. whispered: "Don't panic, there is a mother!" ”

Mrs. Chen San also glanced at Ling Qingyun.

Seeing Ling Qingyun drinking tea with her eyes down, without paying any attention, Mrs. Chen San relieved her heart again.

After a few moments, footsteps sounded in the courtyard.

Chen Qiniang took her eldest brother in.

Ling Qingyun knew that the Qizhou Chen family was a big pharmacist, and she had a sense of reverence for them.

She is sensitive to medicines.

For the people of Chen Qiniang's mother's family, Ling Qingyun was also a little curious, because she had never seen it.

A moment later, a man entered.

He is Chen Qiniang's eldest brother, the eldest brother of the Chen family.

Chen Dalang is about 30 years old and wears a straight shirt of crimson silk. Fair and clean, medium build, slightly chubby, looks kind and shrewd.

On his thumb, he wears a jade wrench. The wrench finger reflected the scorching sun, shining with a faint streamer, which added a bit of grace to his temperament.

Chen Dalang's appearance was similar to what Ling Qingyun expected.

"Uncle." Ling Qingyun greeted him.

Chen Qiniang said that this was her sister-in-law, and Chen Dalang also smiled and greeted Ling Qingyun.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Mrs. Chen San, and Chen Dalang's eyes converged. Thin lips pursed slightly. Showing a bit of majesty.

"Third aunt, my nephew will take you home." Chen Dalang's voice changed to gentleness, and he said coldly and sternly to Mrs. Chen San.

"We're not going back!" Before Mrs. Chen San could speak, Chen Sanniang jumped up. Said loudly to Chen Dalang. "In broad daylight. Can you still force us to fail?

This is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the relatives of the Seventh Sister's family are all big officials! If you have to persecute us. Let's go to the court! ”

Chen Sanniang is only fifteen years old, looks like Mrs. Chen San, has a beautiful and lovely appearance, and her eyes are like ink-colored gems, with bright folds; The cheeks are full and the skin is white, which is very blessed.

Her puffing appearance is also delicate and moving. There was a little grievance in her shining eyes, although she said cruel words, she was full of tears and pitiful.

It turned out that they were running for relatives of the Chen family who were officials.

Chen Dalang's thick eyebrows twisted slightly.

Chen Qiniang also raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Thirteen Niang!" Mrs. Chen San pretended to pull her daughter, trying to persuade her not to say much, but in fact, she secretly pushed her daughter's waist, wanting her daughter to go up and fight with Chen Dalang.

The child makes good use of it.

No matter how you contradict adults, you can use "ignorance" to cover the past. If adults have to care, they will also have a reputation for not being tolerant enough.

Mrs. Chen San will also use this strategy.

"What's wrong with my sister?" At this time, Ling Qingyun walked to Chen Sanniang's side with a smile and grabbed Shisanniang's arm, lest Sansanniang really rush forward, "Sister has something to say, there is nothing worth being so anxious." ”

Chen Sanniang suddenly shook off Ling Qingyun's hand and retreated to her mother's side, quite hostile to Ling Qingyun.

Ling Qingyun smiled, unimpressed.

"Mrs. in-laws, second girl, it's really funny." Chen Dalang looked back at Jing and Ling Qingyun, and his smile was a little embarrassed, "I came to disturb me today, I came to pick up the third aunt back."

"Uncle, it's rare for you to come to see my sister-in-law, it's better to stay first and then make plans." Ling Qingyun said.

"Yes, uncle." Jing also said.

In this way, even if Mrs. Chen San is relieved.

Chen Dalang didn't want to say anything anymore, he just said that he was bothered.

Jing arranged for Chen Dalang to live in the outer courtyard, and then bought snacks to entertain him, so that he could eat first; On the other side, the Jing family arranged for someone to invite Ling Qingcheng home.

"What's going on?" At this time, Chen Qiniang asked Mrs. Chen, "Why doesn't the third aunt want to go home?" ”

Chen Qiniang already knew the truth, she just asked knowingly.

Mrs. Chen San was silent.

Chen Sanniang also bowed her head and was silent.

"If there is anything to say, it should be made clear at home, and it is really not a good idea to rush out." Chen Qiniang said again.

Ling Qingyun looked at Mrs. Chen's mother and daughter, and understood a little in her heart.

Perhaps, it has something to do with Chen Sanniang.

Ling Qingyun couldn't say anything.

Chen Qiniang naturally couldn't teach the elders a lesson, so after saying a few words, they dispersed, Chen Qiniang went to the outer courtyard to see her eldest brother, and the brother and sister talked all morning.

"Mother, what's going on with the Chen family?" Ling Qingyun also asked.

Jing couldn't hide his words in front of his daughter.

Anyway, Chen Dalang is here, and things will have to be talked about sooner or later.

"That thirteen mothers decided to marry in the early years. Didn't the Chen family make a fortune selling grain last year? The third wife felt that she was developed, and she should find an official eunuch for her daughter, and she was unwilling to marry a merchant, so she had to withdraw from her family.

But the other party was unwilling, and he didn't retreat, so he stiffened. Seeing that they couldn't talk, the third wife ran out with the children, and walked away, and talked about it after three years. Jing said in a low voice.

The laws of this dynasty stipulate that when a woman is employed, the marriage is consummated, and the contract cannot be broken without cause. If the marriage has to be dissolved, it needs to be ruled by the government, and both parties are consensual.

If the other party is not at fault and is unwilling to withdraw from the family, the government will sentence to maintain the old covenant and still have to marry.

However, if it is a person who has been married for three years and has not married for no reason. Go to the government to report first, and you can forcibly listen to it.

Chen Sanniang's marriage was set two years ago.

Since the other party was unwilling to listen, Mrs. Chen San took her daughter out to hide, and after hiding this year, it would be three years.

Although it is not that the other party does not marry "for no reason", but that he cannot marry, it is also considered "not married for three years", and the government allows him to leave.

"No wonder you want to hide in our house and refuse to leave." Ling Qingyun said to Jing's family, "It turned out that I was afraid that the other party would arrest them back. ”

Although the Ling family is down. But in the end, it can be regarded as a powerful relative. Chen Sanniang's other party was a merchant and did not dare to go to Ling's house to spread wild.

As for the Chen family's own people, Mrs. Chen San relied on herself to be widowed, and she would cry and grab the ground with "being bullied" at every turn. The Chen family couldn't help her.

"yes." Jing's Road. "Your sister-in-law received a letter from Qizhou. It was very displeased. The other party surnamed Wei of Thirteen Niang's relatives has been friends with the Chen family for decades, and they have close business contacts. The two help each other.

The Chen family became rich last year, and the world knows it. Everyone in the world is jealous, and they are already jealous of Chen's wealth, and Chen is a merchant with nothing to rely on.

The Wei family's sons are healthy, motivated, clean, and talented, and they are unwilling to withdraw from their relatives, and the Chen family forcibly broke the contract for no reason, which is to give people a handle, and there must be no one to deal with the Chen family.

The foundation of the Chen family is still unstable, and it is most important to do such a despicable thing at this time. Therefore, Chen Dalang chased the third wife, mother and daughter all the way to Beijing. ”

Ling Qingyun also felt that this consideration was correct.

Qizhou Chen's family did get out of the limelight at the beginning of this year, and everyone knows that they got rich.

Everyone loves money, and even more so those in power.

At this time, if the magnates hold the handle slightly, they can make the Chen family full of light.

It also takes time for financial power to collude. The Chen family has only been developed for about half a year, and it does not have such a solid foundation.

How could such a big mistake be made at this moment?

"The Wei family's sons and daughters have nothing to do, but the third wife has to withdraw from her family, why?" Ling Qingyun asked, "Is the other party's family very down?" ”

Not really.

Before the Chen family became rich, they were also merchants with rich assets. The Wei family and the Chen family have been close friends for decades, and they are still intermarried, so it is certain that the two parties have equal financial resources.

Could it be that the third wife saw that Chen Qiniang married into the Ling family, a bit of a powerful relative, and also wanted her daughter to marry an official?

The status of a businessman is indeed very high after 20 years, but he was still a little discriminated against before.

Marriage "directly takes assets", and it is also a family that is relatively short of money. Moreover, Thirteen Niang has been engaged, which is equivalent to the establishment of marriage. Remarrying again is technically considered "remarriage".

If you remarry, it's not so easy.

"Your sister-in-law said that the third wife has a lofty heart. Seeing that the Chen family was rich, someone provoked in her ear that she could marry into the Qinggui family in Beijing like the Seventh Lady.

The third wife also heard that Jingli's current marriage does not ask about the family, and she directly takes her assets. The Chen family has money, which is enough to marry the Thirteen Niang to the family of the Seventh Niangzi, so she moved her mind.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have come straight to our house. I looked at her meaning, and I wanted our relatives to help Thirteen Niang find a wishful husband. She thinks that our relatives are either rich or expensive. ”

Ling Qingyun smiled, not surprised at all.

"Last time, the third wife inquired about Tong'er's age." Ling Qingyun said with a smile.

Jing was also helpless.

She asked twice later, and said that the woman was older and more blessed. Jing shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Thirteen Niang is two years older than Ling Qingtong.

"Mother, don't promise anything." Ling Qingyun said, "It's impossible for the Chen family to allow them to mess around on this cusp. ”

"I know." Jing smiled, "You kid, you always be stupid, and you tell you everything!" ”

Ling Qingyun leaned into Jing's arms and said coquettishly: "My mother wronged me, I know that my mother is soft-hearted and thin-skinned, and she can't pull her face." ”

Jing's slender arm wrapped his arms around his daughter, tapped her forehead a few times, and said, "Flamboyant!" ”

At noon, Ling Qingcheng took leave from the sect and went home.

A banquet was held at home to entertain Chen Dalang.

After the banquet, Chen Dalang talked about letting the third wife take Thirteen Niang and Seventeen Lang back to Qizhou.

"Back then, I was married to the Wei family, and the third aunt strongly asked for it. Now, it is the third aunt who is unwilling, so how can we juniors gain a foothold? Chen Dalang said sternly.
