Chapter 91: Hidden Disease
At the same time, the scandal of Wang and Dou Cheng's two "cheating" did not fly in Beijing.
In the teahouse restaurant, it is rumored that the wife of Jiang Dezhang, a priest of Shuji, had an affair with a widower in his hometown and was "caught raped" in bed......
The so-called "good things don't go out and evil things go thousands of miles", Beijing is a mixed place, this kind of thing is what everyone likes to see, less than a day's effort, spread all over the streets and alleys, and the vendors and pawns know everything.
On the way back to Jiang's Mansion from the Shuji Pavilion, Jiang Dezhang heard this from the mouths of passers-by, and he couldn't help but be furious.
I thought that when my daughter Xiugu's family affairs were settled, I would drive the Wang family out of the Jiang Mansion with a letter of resignation, but I didn't expect this matter to spread, and everyone knew about it.
This was really unexpected, he had to hurry back to discuss with his eldest brother and sister-in-law, how to calm down the incident and save it from affecting his career.
You must know that the two brothers all relied on hard study to get to this step for a few days, if the back house is restless and is known by the officials, then his ten years of hard study will be in vain. A charge of "not governing the family strictly" will be deducted, and in this life, he is afraid that he will have no chance of promotion.
The ancients paid attention to "self-cultivation and Qi family governance and peace in the world", and even the affairs of the family could not be handled well, what qualifications did he have to be an official?
He was furious and sat in a small sedan chair carried by the two of them, and returned to Jiang's mansion almost as soon as he slipped away, and before he even changed the robe on his body, he hurriedly ran to the study of his eldest brother Jiang Degong and waited.
When the lamp was in charge, Jiang Degong came back from the yamen, and Jiang Dezhang didn't care about saluting. I quickly told me about it.
Jiang Degong also heard a few words in the yamen, and when he heard this, his face suddenly became solemn, and he touched the three wisps of goatee under his chin. He stamped his feet and walked out into the backyard.
"I have to discuss this matter with your sister-in-law, and she is the one who takes care of the affairs of the back house." Jiang Dezhang knew that the eldest brother respected his sister-in-law very much, and the sister-in-law was from a famous family, and she was quite assertive.
He hurriedly followed his eldest brother to the Qian family's courtyard. Qian is taking his two daughters to set up a meal and wait for Jiang Degong.
The family happened to be sitting around the ebony Eight Immortals table, and Jiang Dezhang gave the Qian family what he heard outside.
Qian was busy instructing his two daughters, Jiang Shijing and Jiang Shiyun, "You can pick up some food and eat it in the back room." β
Jiang Dezhang suddenly blushed and his neck thickened. He is a big man's family, and he only has a daughter under him, and he still follows the Wang family, where do you know these taboos?
Hurriedly put down his chopsticks and gave a salute to Qian. Blushing. "Sister-in-law, it's my brother who is reckless, I didn't expect the two nieces to not listen to these words!"
"That's it, you're a big man, it's enough to care about your career, where do you understand these dirty things in the house?" Qian picked up the snow-white handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, and said lightly.
"Now that this has been spread, it seems that it is impossible to hide it. It's all to blame for my lax governance. When I find out which subordinate is talking nonsense, see if I don't take the family to rule him! β
Qian's face was hateful. He looked remorseful.
Jiang Dezhang was terrified when he heard that his virtuous sister-in-law blamed herself. What kind of person is my sister-in-law?
That's a person from a famous family, who makes him and his eldest brother respect and admire, and has never been said no, if it weren't for his sister-in-law taking care of his life in the past two years, how could he be a Jinshi on the spot?
Since beating the Wang family, how much trouble has it caused to the sister-in-law? Now that such an ugly thing has happened, so that the sister-in-law worries about him day and night, and he has to bear the reputation of being a poor ruler of the family.
He's so undeserved.
Jiang Dezhang's face turned red and smashed his fist on the table of the Eight Immortals, which shook the plates and saucers on the table.
"Sister-in-law, it's none of your business, it's all your fault for the little brother, so that you are worried. When Aunt Xiu's family affairs are settled, I will divorce the adulteress and let her get out of Jiang's mansion! β
Qian rubbed his eyebrows and pretended to be embarrassed, "The second uncle has become famous, it was originally a family reunion, and when he was happy and prosperous, who would have thought of such a thing?" β
Seeing the shame on Jiang Dezhang's face, Qian's eyes rolled and he sighed, "It's just that the streets and alleys of Beijing are full of gossip about the Wang family, and I think this matter should be sooner rather than later." It's late, and even Xiugu's reputation has been ruined. β
Jiang Dezhang looked at the compassionate look on his sister-in-law's face, and his heart was moved. He is a scholar in the end, he only knows how to read dead books, and he doesn't understand the methods of the back house. Immediately nodded and said, "When Ming'er waits, I will let someone sue Sister SΓΉ, and let her do her best to discuss with the old lady of the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion to see if the family affairs can be settled in the next two days?" β
As soon as Qian heard this, his heart chuckled. She did everything she could, just to ruin the reputation of the Wang family, so that Jiang Shiyun would be ignored.
But the eldest sister was bent on matching the hooves and Song Hui, and she couldn't stop it.
Now that this has happened, she doesn't believe that the Marquis of An Guofu still dares to marry that cheap hoof?
Taking advantage of the fact that the family affairs are still undecided, Jiang Dezhang drove the Wang family out with a letter of resignation, and Jiang Shiyun never had a chance to turn over.
But Jiang Dezhang, a wooden nerd, wants to wait for his daughter's family affairs to settle before writing a letter of resignation, how can this work?
Qian Shi had a hint of displeasure on his face, and glared at Jiang Dezhang, "Second uncle, didn't you take your sister-in-law's words to heart?" My brother and sister have such ugly things, and the rumors are all known, and they are still in our house, won't even your two nieces suffer? β
Jiang Dezhang was a little heavy when he heard this, and couldn't help but hesitate.
Although he is a nerd who only reads dead books, he also knows that the daughter of his biological mother will not have a good reputation.
Just as he was hesitating, Qian suddenly flicked his chopsticks, got up and walked out angrily.
Jiang Dezhang was stunned all of a sudden.
He really deserves to die, how can he make his sister-in-law angry?
He immediately chased him out of the hospital and shouted, "Sister-in-law, I'll write, I'll write!" β
Qian's body, who had already arrived at the gate of the courtyard, paused, and the corners of his lips curled up in a pleasant arc.
In the dead of night, there was no other noise in Beijing except for the occasional bangzi and dog barking.
In a courtyard of the Marquis of Anguo's mansion, the lights suddenly turned on and the voices of people were boiling.
On the bed in the main room, the hemp blue gauze tent was torn to the ground, the two little girls in the house were trembling and hiding in the corner, and the two old women on duty at night were rubbing their hands and didn't know why.
A mother-in-law took a look, and suddenly exclaimed, "Go and report to the old lady...... A little girl ran out in a panic.
When Mrs. Sun of the Marquis of Anguo Mansion arrived panting, he saw that the house was in a mess, and his long room chief Sun Song Hui was lying on the ground, his body curled up, his body was spasmodic, his face was bruised, his mouth was foaming, and he was no longer conscious.
