Chapter 950: Self-preservation
The day after Mrs. Xu went to Ding's Mansion to ask for guilt, Wang Jinyuan knew the news here, and sent the children to school, so she took advantage of the gap in housework to mention it to Fan Anyang.
In fact, the day before, when Dr. Xu left, Mama Fang sent someone to greet Fan Anyang, and when she heard Wang Jinyuan talk about it, she had a look on her face when she heard about it for the first time.
Ruixiang quietly bit her ears with Yanxiang, "The second young grandmother knew about this yesterday, how could the eldest young grandmother only know now?" ”
"Of course, it's because of the different sources! The eldest and youngest grandmother will know about this, and it is the news sent by the aunt's wife. "Ding Wenfu's mother-in-law's family is close to her mother's family, and it is not strange to have her own source news, and Mrs. Fan also has it, but because of Mrs. Ding's third wife, Mrs. Ding immediately asked Mama Fang to inform her after Mrs. Xu left, just because she was afraid that Fan Anyang would not know the severity, so she should answer Mrs. Xu's request.
Last night, after the person sent by Mama Fang left, Fan Anyang told Du Yunxun, and Du Yunxun confessed to her about Master Xu's disappointment and imprisonment.
Wang Jinyuan only knows the fur, and does not know the details, so she threw it away after a little talk, she didn't have a good impression of the third aunt when she was a child, even if she later befriended Ding Xiaolou, but the impression of the third lady is still the same, knowing that she was punished by her grandmother, it was too late to say that her mother's family came to Beijing, needless to say, a clear-eyed person knew what she was doing in Beijing!
It's just that the matter of Master Xu Si, even if his brother is in Beijing, it is not easy to take care of it, Du Yunxun and Fan Anyang sighed when they talked about it, Third Uncle Ding is not simple! The emperor privately ordered someone to thoroughly investigate the fraud in the imperial examination, and the people who investigated the case before couldn't find Master Xu Si. That day, Fan Amber woke up Uncle Ding, but Uncle Ding only explained a few words, and the next day, the case was immediately found to Master Xu.
The people above him reacted quickly, and immediately abandoned the car to protect the handsome, and those who had dealings with Xu Si were all cleaned up, even if Xu Si confessed these people in prison, it would be because there was no evidence of this person's death, and it would be over, and all the charges would fall on Xu Si Ye.
Although the emperor knew it, he saw that the clue was broken. There is no direct evidence to take down the people behind the scenes. That's so angry in my heart! As a result, the fourth master Xu had a hard time in prison, even if the young masters of the Xu family spent money on it, the jailers did not dare to release the water.
After the young masters of the Xu family found out. But I can't afford to spend money to make Lao Tzu suffer less torture in prison. But they are running out of money. When I went back, I couldn't tell Mrs. Xu, so I could only discuss with my wife, and the young grandmothers didn't have a problem. The cash at the bottom of the box was about to be drained, so I asked the aunts and grandmothers who got married to help.
At this mention, the married daughter of the Xu family naturally had to go home and ask clearly, and the four ladies knew that her husband was living a hot life in prison, and the eldest lady came back from Dingfu, just in time for this scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping, and finally the farce subsided, and the eldest lady was also tired and paralyzed!
It was originally planned to go to Du's mansion the next day to plead guilty, but in the end I had to give up.
The reason why Mrs. Ding sent someone to talk to Fan Anyang overnight was because she was afraid that Mrs. Xu would come to the door the next day, but she didn't expect that after the Xu family made a fuss all night, Mrs. Xu didn't have the spirit to come to the door at all.
Du Yunxun told Du Yunqi about this early in the morning, and Du Yunqi directly asked people to inform Menzi that he didn't see the Xu family, so he said to Du Yunxun, "I see, you and Ah Zhao should simply go out of Beijing!" Didn't your master say before, staying in Beijing all the time will only make your vision gradually narrower, and only by going out and looking at the world can you draw good works. ”
"I know, it's been planned for a long time, but the people who accompany me haven't been gathered yet." Du Yunxun looked at the chessboard and answered him absentmindedly.
"What are you missing now?" Du Yunqi was puzzled, the accompanying guards, small servants, and long-term followers were all ready-made at home, what kind of people were missing?
Du Yunxun smiled, "The manager who helps take care of everything, I don't want to have to worry about everything by myself after I go out." ”
After all, his brother is a lazy man, right? Du Yun stroked his forehead. "Can't we be in charge? His apprentices ......"
"The chief manager wants to go out with me, who will take care of the affairs of the family? His apprentices all have errands, and they can walk away in a short time, but what about the long days? ”
He didn't want to take someone out, he finally got started, so he was called back because of something, besides, he didn't just want to take his wife out, but also his two sons, otherwise these two little guys stayed at home, who would help take care of them? He didn't have to worry about leaving it to Wang Jinyuan to take care of.
Maybe she and Ah Zhao are good sisters and concubines, but for Du Yunxun, he has always felt that Wang Jinyuan is unreliable, and his son is still good with him, and Xiaosi, this little guy and Xiaoxu are inseparable, if he goes out with Xiaoxu and doesn't take him, I'm afraid that the hard work spent on him before will be wasted.
Hey, Du Yunxun sighed and picked up the white child, and gently dropped it on the chessboard, "You lost again!" ”
Du Yunqi looked down when he heard this, he had to lose again! He had already lost three games this morning. "You're not going to let me go? Do you understand? ”
"Understood! That's why you just lost three sets, didn't you? Du Yunxun glared angrily, "You're about to show filial piety, have you discussed it with your grandfather?" ”
Du Yunqi snorted, "You should worry about yourself first!" "The emperor knew that Du Yunxun wanted to go out of Beijing, and he had understood the meaning with his grandfather before, and wanted Du Yunxun to hang a chair in the secret guard camp, let him help inspect the secret guard camps in various places, and teach them painting skills.
But the grandfather didn't agree, he didn't want his grandson to go there, he still had to help the emperor do things, and he couldn't open up to do what he wanted to do.
The emperor and his grandfather are currently in a tug-of-war, and it is not yet clear who will lose and who will win.
However, Du Yunqi thought that the probability of his grandfather finally being appointed was very high, who would make the other party the emperor? However, my grandfather will let the emperor promise a lot of favorable conditions for returning to normal, and returning to normal is not a white body, how could the emperor let go of such a good talent? Especially if you buy one get one free, Ah Zhao's ability is not under normalcy, but because she is a woman, the emperor is not good at using her, so he can only bully her to return to normal, so that Ah Zhao feels sorry for her husband and can help.
"By the way, Yun Fang's marriage, you can't throw it all to me." As Du Yunqi spoke, he suddenly thought of this and hurriedly reminded.
"Big brother, you are the eldest brother, naturally you have to work harder, and this little matter will be handed over to you and your sister-in-law." Du Yun Xunlang got up with a smile and patted his eldest brother on the shoulder a few times.
Du Yunqi was slapped so that his face was crooked, damn, when did you start to have such a strong palm?
The little maid knocked lightly on the door outside the study, "The eldest young master, the second young master, the old lady has returned to the house, let you two go over." ”
Oh? The two brothers got up and looked at each other, "But something?" ”
The little guy shook his head and didn't know, Du Yunxun raised his feet and walked out, "I'll know when I see my grandfather." ”
In the inner courtyard, Fan Anyang smiled and said to the grandmother sent by Mrs. Fan, "I know, I'll go back tomorrow." ”
"Sixth aunt and grandmother, don't forget, bring Young Master Sun back together."
"I know, I won't forget."
Seeing off Mama, Mo Xiang asked with a smile, "I don't know what day Ming'er is, why did Madam suddenly ask you to go back?" ”
Fan Anyang tilted his head and thought for a while, "I'm afraid that my mother knows that Mrs. Xu has entered Beijing, and she doesn't want me to see her like this, and she wants to explain something to me!" ”
The sister-in-law bullied her daughter when she was a dead person! Her sister-in-law didn't compensate her daughter, Mrs. Xu Si also pretended not to do so, no matter how good Mrs. Ren Fan's temper was, she would be angry, Master Xu Si was imprisoned and had no official status, and Mrs. Ding San entered the ancestral hall, but Mrs. Xu Si was still bouncing outside, which made people look at it!
Third Mrs. Ding is stupid, stupid, but no one pouts her, she can't do anything to calculate Fan Anyang, for Mrs. Fan, Fourth Mrs. Xu has not been punished!
Trying to calculate her daughter! Hum!
The next day, Fan Anyang took his sons and Xiaosi to Fan's house together, and Mrs. Xu pounced when she came to the door, in fact, even if Fan Anyang was there, she couldn't enter Du's house, because Du Yunqi confessed to the door the day before and didn't see the Xu family.
Mrs. Xu turned back from the car, and only then did she remember her husband's explanation, what a mistake! As soon as she entered Beijing, she should have come directly to make amends, and after dragging on for so many days, people have already taken precautions, and even if the Xu family and Du Fu are related, they are also very far away, and it is not Du Yunxun and his wife who spoke, she wants to use this as an excuse to make some trouble, and the foundation is unstable.
What to do?
Thinking of the mess in the house after returning from Ding's house that day, Mrs. Xu was bored and didn't want to go back, so she told the coachman to go back to her mother's house!
Mrs. Xu's mother-in-law saw her daughter go home, hugged her daughter and cried with joy, her three brothers only the eldest brother remained as a Beijing official, so only the brother and sister-in-law with their nieces and nieces were waiting on the side, coaxing the old lady to stop crying, Mrs. Xu's sister-in-law took the juniors away and let their mother and daughter talk.
When she came out of her mother's house, Mrs. Xu had already made a decision in her heart, the fourth brother could not be saved, and the fourth brother and daughter-in-law were stupid, and after going to the Du family to compensate for it, she would not do anything, waiting for the emperor to decide!
Who knew that when I got home, Mrs. Xu arrived! Knowing that the fourth son was still in prison and had not come out, the old lady was so angry that she wanted to find someone to close the door, and as soon as the eldest lady entered the door, she was scolded by her mother-in-law.
"You entered Beijing so early as I did, why didn't you help the fourth daughter-in-law first and release your fourth brother from prison?"
The words were very reasonable, the eldest lady listened to the corners of her mouth slightly, and replied respectfully, "Mother, it is the emperor's intention for the fourth brother to go to prison, and the daughter-in-law is just a housewife, how can she change the emperor's will?" Besides, the fourth brother's crime is not a trivial matter, didn't she tell you about the fourth brother-in-law? ”
What does the emperor mean? The Emperor's will? Isn't it a trivial matter for the fourth son to commit a crime? Didn't the fourth daughter-in-law say that she just made a mistake inadvertently when she was on an errand? The old lady was stunned for a moment, turned her head and glared at the fourth lady unkindly, and the eldest lady saw that the fourth lady's cheeks were red.
I think it was the old lady who questioned her, and the fourth lady would be answered if she couldn't answer, and finally she talked nonsense in order to protect herself, and then pushed the matter on herself, the eldest lady glanced at the fourth lady unhappily, this woman's temperament has not changed for decades, and she has been so virtuous since she entered the door, but now that her husband is in trouble, she still only thinks about self-preservation, and does not consider the consequences of talking nonsense?
Aren't you afraid of giving them the wrong information, but delaying the matter and making the fourth brother doomed? (To be continued.) )
