After Wang Tongsheng's words spread, someone confirmed with Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang, who had been holding back her anger for a long time, finally couldn't help it, and spit out her bitterness to several wives who had better friendships, and did not forget to point out that this was because her husband was too kind and didn't want the reputation of Niu and Zhao Xiang to be damaged, so he silently endured the criticism of the outside world. But she really couldn't stand the calculation of the grandchildren, and the thought that they almost destroyed her own son made her feel a chill in her back. In the end, she also told these friends not to tell anyone outside, so everyone in the capital knew.

In fact, Wang Dongsheng had some complaints about his wife and children's practices, but Mrs. Wang was rarely furious, so he coaxed. Anyway, he didn't have a good impression of the Niu family's ancestors and grandchildren. Jiannanhou Mansion has been very popular in the capital recently, and many people are talking about their family. The death of Zhao Zhuo and his wife was ten years ago, not too far from now, although there have been a lot of officials in Beijing, but there are still many officials in Beijing for more than ten years, or high-ranking families living in Beijing, and they have heard some rumors that day. In the past, the Zhang family did not have much contact with the outside world, and soon left the capital, unable to maintain their past friendships, even if everyone sympathized with the grievances suffered by her family, they would not talk about it casually outside, and most of them just watched coldly. But now that the Zhao family has once again become the center of heated discussions, insiders will naturally say more, and they will publicize it everywhere to show that they are well-informed. More and more trails spread out like this. Although there are true and false, Wang Dongsheng has heard a lot, and when he compares it with the statements of the ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family, he knows that they are not lying. With their position, it is really reasonable for Niu and Zhao Xiang to stand by and watch. What's more, people are now helping this pair of grandchildren? What qualifications does he have to say that people are ruthless?

In contrast, Wang Dongsheng recognized his recklessness. Zhao Jiong's family first killed Zhao Zhuo's wife and servants, and then lost his title. Then he openly defected to King Ying and opposed the first emperor supported by the Jiannan County Gong, which was simply disloyal and unfilial. The ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family, who have always been loyal to the first emperor and the current lineage, are the ones who uphold the will of the Duke of Jiannan County. He Wang Dongsheng claimed to have received the grace of the county grandfather in vain, but he alienated the real descendants of the county grandfather, and instead supported his unworthy descendants, if the county grandfather was still in the world. And what will you think of him? Now that Wang Dongsheng even complained about Zhao Jue, if it wasn't for Zhao Jue who lied and misled him in the letter to him that day, how could he say rude words in front of the ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family? Now he wants to come to the door to make amends. It also depends on how people are feeling.

Wang Dongsheng regretted it too late, and he could only let his two sons communicate outside, if they met Zhao Wei by chance, they must pay a few respects. It would be nice to be able to talk. In any case, I have to show him that the Wang family is close. And when someone came to confirm to them what Niu and Zhao Xiang did, Wang Dongsheng no longer forbade his wife and children to tell the truth, but he himself was unwilling to directly say what he had done wrong.

The reputation of the Wang family has been saved a little, but it is only a little. Now the public opinion has changed its direction, no longer saying how the Wang family is ungrateful, how to say one thing and do another, but has become a deliberate reputation but underestimated the ancestors and grandchildren of the Niu family, and the result was reversed. lost his wife and soldiers, but he really did it himself.

Such a result. Of course, the Wang family is not satisfied, but this is much better than the previous questioning of the character of the whole family. Although the public still ridicules his family a lot, there are also many people who are sympathetic. It was originally a kind intention to help people, but it turned out to help a white-eyed wolf, and this painful lesson is also impressive.

And what makes the Wang family happiest is that Wang Dongsheng's new official position and new appointment, which have been pending for a long time, have finally come down. The Ministry of War ordered him to go to the Shunyi garrison to train soldiers, and his official position was the same as when he was in the northwest, and he was also from the third grade, and he was neither promoted nor demoted. Although it doesn't sound very good, Shunyi is on the outskirts of Beijing, and the garrison generals are considered Beijing officials. For officials of the same level, the status of Beijing officials is higher than that of local officials. can maintain the rank from the third grade, which can be regarded as a disguised promotion to his official. It's a pity that this new position is a deputy and doesn't have much power. But the top boss is a military general from a noble background, who has a background, qualifications and military merits, and is stronger than Wang Dongsheng everywhere, so he has nothing to complain about, so he hurriedly packed some luggage and hurriedly took his own soldiers to take office. Mrs. Wang took the opportunity to close the door and took her two sons to spend their days at home, only occasionally going out to see friends. The appointment of the guards of Wang Weisheng, the son of the Wang family, also came down a few days later, and the Wang family was even more at ease.

It seems that the above investigation of the Wang family has passed, and without the ancestors and grandchildren of the Niu family, the bad luck of the Wang family has been suspended, and they should have been driven out of the door a long time ago!

Mrs. Wang was delighted, but she also thought indignantly.

At this time, Zhao Xiang was also indignant. Although the reputation of her ancestors and grandchildren has long been ruined, because Wu Pozi shouted and scolded at the door that day, scolding the ugly things of the Niu family in the past, she didn't say much about her Zhao Xiang - after all, she is the great-granddaughter of the old county princess, so outsiders at most say that she is not a good family teacher. In addition, after meeting the Huo family's mother and son that time, some people in the Mianhua Hutong area began to rumor that she was shameless at a young age, and when she saw the young Qingjun, she hooked up with her scheming, but it was just rumors, nothing more. As long as she doesn't go out, she doesn't have to face the shame of others.

But that's not the case today. The rumors leaked from the Wang family directly made her, a girl who had not yet reached the end of her life, a little whore who deliberately drugged her benefactor's son to climb on the bed, and no one believed that she didn't know it in advance. Originally, it was just that when a neighbor passed by outside the fence of her house, he would foam at the mouth and gossip. Now, people who live elsewhere have rushed to watch after hearing the news. All kinds of foul language came one after another, even if she didn't go out and sat in the room, she could hear it clearly. She was ashamed and angry, and wanted to scold back several times, but after all, she held back because she was too timid, but she silently cried in the house, not knowing when such days would end.

Pei'er doesn't even dare to go out of the door now.

Jiannanhou Mansion sent rice, flour and firewood every month, and then sent 2,000 yuan. Zhao Xiang is not worried that he will starve to death, the question is how can he eat only rice and noodles? There are still meat dishes in the first month! Now there is only rice and noodles. Zhao Xiang secretly scolded Xiao Erfang for being stingy in his heart, and he said it well to the outside world. In fact, it is also a reputation for fame. She stayed up for a few days, couldn't hold it anymore, and ordered Pei'er to go out to buy.

Pei'er said with a sad face: "The slave is afraid. As soon as we went out, everyone was laughing at our family, and there were many men who ripped the clothes of slaves and maids. Ask the girl to spare the slave maid, there are still some pickles and pickled meat at home, there is rice and noodles, and it can last for some time. Slaves and maids really don't dare to go out! ”

"Useless things, what are you afraid of?! In broad daylight. What else can people do to you? Do you really think that there is no royal law in this capital?! Zhao Xiang scolded, looked back at the room, and took a deep breath. Besides, we can eat, but grandmother's medicine can't be stopped. Even if we owe it to ourselves, we can't owe it to our grandmother. This is filial piety! If anyone comes to make things difficult for you. Just cry out with that. I want to see how many people are so thick-skinned that they still embarrass you after hearing this! ”

Pell wanted to cry again. Zhao Xiang's words are clearly talking nonsense with his eyes open. Niu's medicine? Niu's medicine is prescribed by the doctor, the medicine money paid by the Hou Mansion, after the doctor finishes taking the pulse, he will send the medicine to the door when he goes back, and he will pick it up outside the door, and people will not come in. Their master and servant don't need to grab the medicine themselves!

The doctor that the Hou Mansion found for the Niu family had two brushes. Previously, Niu did not trust him. Privately, Pei'er asked Pei'er to take the medicine according to the prescription prescribed by the doctor at Wang's house, and only took one dose. The doctor took the pulse and took the pulse. On the second day, someone from the Hou Mansion came and said that if Niu did not listen to the doctor's advice, then the Hou Mansion would send the doctor away, and from now on he would not care about her illness. Niu was afraid that he would have to spend an extra amount of money on medicine, so he didn't dare to take medicine indiscriminately. Now what else does Zhao Xiang say about catching medicine?

Zhao Xiang naturally knew this matter in her heart, and looking at Pei'er's face, she was also a little weak-hearted, so she changed her words and said: "The doctor I invited now, the medical skills seem to be mediocre, and my grandmother's illness has not only not improved, but has become more and more serious." How can this continue? You went out, so I inquired about it, is there a good doctor nearby? When I heard about it, I came back to sue me, and I also considered whether to invite another doctor instead. ”

This reason sounds reasonable, but Pei'er still disagrees. Outsiders don't know, can she, the only person waiting by the ancestors and grandchildren of the Niu family, not know? Since ten days ago, Niu's illness suddenly worsened, he always wanted to vomit, his stomach hurt, he ejaculated several times in succession, his face turned blue, his limbs were cold, and his body became weaker and weaker. Zhao Xiang didn't call the doctor to come, and he didn't know where to grab the medicine, boiled it into medicinal soup and waited for her to drink it, and it seemed to be much better. By the time the doctor arrived at the day of the usual pulse diagnosis, Niu was half-dead, but he was still conscious. But when the doctor said something that she didn't listen to the doctor's advice, Zhao Xiang suddenly started a fire for some reason, scolded the person, and drove the person out of the house. When they came back the next day, she didn't allow them to enter. Niu's only being a granddaughter is angry for herself, and she is happy. But later, when her condition worsened, she felt afraid and asked her granddaughter to invite someone back. Since five or six days ago, Zhao Xiang finally let people in, but every time he hastily checked the pulse, he drove people away again.

Although the doctor sent the medicine according to the prescription, after the medicine was boiled out, it was less than half a bowl that could be poured into Niu's stomach. Niu's condition began to recur again, two days for good, one day for bad, and within a few days, the body couldn't stand it. Earlier, he could sit weakly on the bed and scold, occasionally holding on to the wall and walking two steps out of the yard, but now he doesn't know about it, except for being woken up by Zhao Xiang once in the morning and evening to feed some porridge and water, he falls asleep every day, and he is getting thinner and thinner, his face is as white as a ghost, and he has almost no popularity.

The medicine was not eaten properly, and I vomited and leaked for several days, and I did not ask the doctor to treat it properly. How can a patient get better when he is tossed like this? Pei'er didn't know what Zhao Xiang wanted to do, but she just felt that it seemed unfair to conclude that the doctor's medical skills were not good based on this. And this doctor is already the most famous one in the neighborhood, and they don't need to pay for medicine. If you invite another doctor, where will you go? A famous doctor in the capital, the consultation fee is not cheap. Their master and servant now only have two dollars a month, and they don't know if they can pay for a doctor's visit. How could Zhao Xiang have such an idea?

What Pei'er was more afraid of was what Zhao Xiang was thinking? Why do you toss Niu's like this? Even if he was afraid that Niu would lose his temper with them again, he didn't have to do this. It's a matter of life!

Zhao Xiang sensed Pei'er's uneasiness and suspicion, and his heart was irritable. If it weren't for the fact that there was only this one girl available by her side right now, she would have sent people away, so why should she be afraid? It's just that today I'm going to send people out anyway. In the past few days, because Peier has not gone out, she has not been able to start, this morning Niu Shi woke up once, it seems that he has suspected something. Things can't go on like this!

Just when Zhao Xiang ordered Pei'er to go out to inquire about other doctors, someone knocked on their door vigorously: "Open the door!" Are the old lady and cousin at home? We are from the Jiang family! ”

Zhao Xiang was stunned, immediately jumped up, and pushed Pei'er: "Go and ask clearly, which Jiang family it is!" ”

Pei'er ran to the back of the door and asked, the person outside seemed to be very vulgar, and replied loudly: "We are from Jiang Qi's family, from Liangxiang County." ”

Zhao Xiang immediately remembered. After being released from prison, she once inquired that almost all the people in her mother's Jiang family's family were dismissed and dismissed, and they left the capital gloomily, and the only thing left in the whole family was only one seventh cousin, who was a county magistrate in Liangxiang County, but was also implicated and demoted to a county magistrate. This is also because he has a good official reputation in office and his political performance is also relatively good. She had thought earlier that if it weren't for the fact that this seventh cousin's official position was too low and his relationship with her family was mediocre, she might have gone to join her.

Could it be that the seventh cousin sent someone to pick her up?!

Zhao Xiang's eyes suddenly lit up. (To be continued......)
